Okay, since all of you have been practically screaming in your reviews "Three weeks!" or something like that, I'm continuing sooner. The truth is this chapter should've been up a few days ago, only I was writing it on a Unix hard drive and when I saved it everything got messed up. This chapter was 8 pages long! It took me about an hour and a half to write it. But I guess it'll be faster and easier the second time, now that I have Microsoft Word. I hope you like the I-don't-know-sort-of-kind-of-maybe-last-chapter of this story Enjoy!

Not Always This Way By ms. evil

Sakura had been trying to stir up some conversation with everyone, but all attempts failed, horribly.

"Oh come on, you guys are acting so boring! Sharon exclaimed as she into the room. Everyone couldn't help but notice Nakuru's eyes sparkling at the sight of being in the same room with a movie star.

Just then the doorbell rang, nobody got up to answer it.

"Aren't you going to get that?" Nakuru asked.

"No, that's James' job," Sharon said.

"James?" Nakuru asked, cocking up one eyebrow.

"Yeah, the butler," Sharon replied. Nakuru understood now, Tomoyo couldn't help but smile at her denseness.

A few minutes later Ryo walked in with a very revealing dress causing Eriol to blush and look away. His gaze landed on Tomoyo.

"Hi, who are you?" Sharon asked standing up and shaking Ryo's hand.

"Yeah, and who invited you?" Nakuru said rudely.

Sakura nudged her, "Don't be rude," she whispered.

"Ryo Kisaragi," Ryo answered.

"Okay well, then please take a seat," Sharon said gesturing towards the chairs in the room.

Ryo sat herself down next to Eriol; his face grew just a little bit redder. Nakuru noticed this and her blood started to boil. Tomoyo looked at Ryo with disgust.

'She wore way too much jewelry, and her make-up doesn't even match!' she thought.

Soon more and more guests started arriving, until the entire dance room was filled with people and music.

Ryo had dragged Eriol away and made him dance with her. Nakuru had gone off with some guy and Sakura was nowhere to be seen. That leaves Tomoyo, she was the wallflower. She was still sitting in the chair watching everyone else having fun.

'Why did I even come to this party?'

After turning down what seemed the twentieth guy Tomoyo saw Sakura sit down next to her out of the corner of her eye.

"Hey Tomoyo, what are you still doing here? I've seen some of the cutest guys ask you to dance," she said.

Tomoyo's arms were crossed, making her look bored and angry. "Men are just sex loving, power hungry monsters," she said, after a second or two.

"Well you can't say that about all guys," Sakura said, taking a sip out of whatever she was drinking.

"With the exception of Yamazaki and Syaoran," Tomoyo added.

"You forgot Eriol," Sakura said.

Tomoyo didn't reply. Then a guy came up and asked Sakura to dance. She looked over at Tomoyo as if to ask, "You want me to stay?"

"Just go Sakura," Tomoyo said looking away.

While dancing Sakura couldn't help but look over at Tomoyo.

"I'm sorry, I have to go," Sakura said, excusing herself. She then walked over to Nakuru.

"Nakuru," she whispered tugging at her arm.

"So you have a mansion in Miami and you own a chain of restaurants?" Nakuru asked, ignoring Sakura.

This time Sakura pinched her.

"Ow!" Nakuru yelled rubbing the spot where she got pinched, "What was that for?"

"Come on Nakuru lets do it now," Sakura said.

Sighing Nakuru turned to the guy she was talking to, "Please excuse me," she said politely.

"Fine then, lets go find Sharon," Nakuru said, sighing. 'That guy was so fine too,' she thought.

After squeezing through a huge crowd of men Nakuru and Sakura found Sharon.

"Come on lets do it." Sharon nodded, and after telling the guys she was leaving they started.

"Come on Eriol! Just one more dance!" Ryo whined, tugging on his arm.

He pulled away, "I already told you, go away!"

Before she could whine anymore Sharon interrupted.

"Eriol could you help me with something?" she asked.

"Well excuse you, we were having a conversation here," Ryo said putting her hands on her hips.

Sharon ignored her, "We need to get some microphones."

"Sure." He would do anything right now to get away from Ryo.

Sharon smiled, "Okay, lets go," she said leading him out of the room.

"You better bring him back!" Ryo shouted from behind.

Sharon rolled her eyes, 'Oh please.'

~*~

"Hey Tomoyo!" Nakuru said waving.

"Hey," Tomoyo replied.

"Can you help me get something from the closet? Sharon needs it," Nakuru said.

Tomoyo looked at her, "What is that 'something'?" she asked.

"Ummm, a umm, it's a heavy coat!" Nakuru lied.

Tomoyo raised an eyebrow, "A heavy coat?"

Nakuru nodded. "Why do you need my help?" Tomoyo asked, "It's just a coat."

"Well you know, it's a 'heavy' coat," she said.

"Why does Sharon even need a coat? It's like, 90 degrees in here," Tomoyo said.

"Well you know how picky movie stars are," Nakuru said.

Tomoyo sighed, "Okay fine, I don't see what the point is though," she said, getting up.

"Great!" Then Nakuru led Tomoyo out of the room.

~*~

"Sharon, are you even sure those microphones are in this closet?" Eriol asked, as he rummaged through the stuff.

"Oh it's in there," Sharon said looking around for Nakuru.

"I really don't think it's in here," Eriol said.

"Just keep looking, those microphones are in there."

"Microphones? I thought you needed a coat."

"Oh Tomoyo! Nakuru! Here already?" Sharon said innocently.

Eriol looked out from inside the closet, "What are you talking about?"

"Uhhh."

Tomoyo looked from Sharon to Nakuru, and then crossed her arms. "Okay, something is up, what is it?"

And before Tomoyo and Eriol could follow what happened, they were in the closet. Then they heard the lock turn.

Tomoyo started pounding on the door, "What do you think you're doing! Let us out now!" she yelled.

"You know I'm hungry, how about you?" Nakuru asked.

"Yeah I am, lets go get something to eat," Sharon said.

Tomoyo heard this, "Let me out now!" she yelled as she pounded harder.

"Geez Tomoyo, don't break down the door," Eriol said as he sat down.

Tomoyo ignored him and kept pounding and yelling. About thirty minutes later she too was sitting on the floor exasperated and tired.

"IT was kinda useless wasting your energy like that anyway," Eriol said.

"How so?" Tomoyo asked.

"Sharon probably got all her maids and servents to ignore your screaming," he said.

"Great," Tomoyo sighed.

'Oh come on, admit it, you like being stuck here with him.'

'Shut up!'

'See? See? I knew it!'

'Why do you always win?'

'Because I'm always right and you're always wrong.'

She didn't even know why she bothered, she always lost no matter how many reasons she has or if she thinks her side is right, she always loses.

All of a sudden a soft melody sang throughout the closet.

You only feel what your eyes want to see

How can life be what you want it to be You're frozen, when your heart can't open

'I know this song,' Eriol thought as the song continued.

You're so consumed with how much you get

You waste your time with hate and regret You're frozen, when your heart's not open

After that stanza Tomoyo noticed how much she was relating to the song. Suddenly she felt Eriol's hand on hers.

"Wha-" Eriol started singing with the song and it quieted her.

If I could melt your heart

We'd never be apart Give yourself to me You, are, the key

Now there's no point in placing the blame Endings should know I suffer the same If I lose you, my heart will be broken

And all of a sudden things started to clear up for Tomoyo.

Love is a bird, she needs to fly

Let all the hurt inside of you die You're frozen, when your heart's not open If I could melt your heart we'd never be apart

The words stopped but the melody continued.

"You have a great voice," Tomoyo said, a small smile on her face.

Eriol ignored the comment, "Tomoyo I love you. Why can't you see that?"

Give yourself to me

You are. . .

Tomoyo smiled even more, "But Eriol."

If I could melt your heart

We'd never be apart

"I do see, I see it more clearly then anything else."

Give yourself to me

You, are, the key

"And the truth is. . ."

If I could melt your heart

"I love you too, always and forever."

A/N: Awww it's the end of the chapter! The next chapter will be the last one, it's so sad! *Crying* The story is almost over! *Crying even more* Oh and the song *sniff* doesn't belong to me *sniff* *sniff* it belongs to someone else, I think their name is Pretty, but I really doubt it, the name was just written under the title of the song. I was making this story up as I went along and this song just fit so perfectly into the story! I thought that was kind of weird but I'm lucky I found it! Okay so, before I finish my mindless babble I would like to remind you all to. . .REVIEW!!! REVIEW!!! and REVIEW!!!
