Chapter 2
"Will you people shut up?! I'm the superstar here!!" Cherry
walked in kicking people trying to get through. Sakura stood up clearing her
throat and gave the guitar back.
"Are you ready to rehearse?" Sakura asked in a monotone voice. Cherry gave her a glare and a raised eyebrow.
"I know I am but I think you'd be more willing to take my place." Cherry taunted. Sakura gave her no look but a casual stare.
"Cherry, I have no time for this. Just rehearse okay?" She said starting to lose patience but the star took no notice of it.
"You think you're all that! You think you're so great! You know what? I could fire you right now! Your pretty face covers all your imperfections, people think you're so great and shower you with praises because of your worthless songs while all you are is a talentless bitch!" She yelled, the crowd expecting a slap from Sakura, just watched her glare and say,
"You're the one who needs me, if I wanted to become a superstar, I could just leave you right now and watch you fail while I rise. You know you can't do anything without me. You're a friendless, hopeless spoiled brat who lives asking for things." She said walking out of the room.
"Oh if anyone needs me I'll be sorting out papers at the stage." She said in a lighter voice.
Everyone followed her just taking one look at Cherry who was just there, standing and speechless. Because without doubt, she knew Sakura was right.

Sakura felt her tears fall on her cheeks and trying to disregard them she wiped them away. She continued to write things on her notebook regarding her work but she just couldn't stop the tears.
"Hey, what's wrong Sakuchan?" Sakura lifted her head surprised in hearing that familiar voice. Her eyes softened once she realized she was just imagining him.
"Matt…" She whispered looking down once again.
"Did Cherry actually strike a nerve in Kinomoto's cold veins?" A husky voice asked behind her. Sakura didn't bother look up.
"No matter how true it is, I'd rather that she wouldn't find out." She replied trying to keep her voice steady.
"You have my word." He replied in his usual monotone voice. Sakura has never heard anything from him rather than his cold voice. No laughs, smiles or even a happy hi. Matt told her once that he wasn't always like this. It only started when his father died two years back. She guessed he hadn't been over it yet. She couldn't blame him. It's been six years since she lost her mom and she still hated the subject.
She didn't reply, he understood and left without a word. A couple of minutes later, Cherry had come back in. They all did their work as if nothing happened. After nothing did happen right?
Several hours later they had finished the rehearsals for the next concert. Though it was Cherry practicing, Sakura had been the one to master every move. At the end of the day, Sakura was happy once again for she was talking to Matt.
"Mou!! Matt!! I am not a crybaby." She a bit childishly contradicted. She blushed and smiled as she heard Matt laugh at the other end of the phone.
I can't help lose the barrier I have when I talk to him.
"Then why'd you cry hana-chan?" He teased. Sakura pouted.
"Because she was mean!!" She complained.
Sakura the childish reappears when I talk to him
He laughed again. Sakura smiled once again as she felt her heart flutter.
"Matt! Time to practice!" A far away voice called. Sakura frowned.
"I know I know you have to go, I'll talk to you tomorrow." She said sighing.
"Love you."
"Love you too."

Syaoran Li…
Though I know, I am supposed to be in love with Cherry; I can't help but
think about Sakura whenever I'm with her. Well not only when I'm
with her, every day. Everywhere I look I see here… Sure it would have
been normal since Cherry and Sakura hold great resemblance to each other but,
seeing her in everything I look at… I'm getting weird!
I mean, the lexus on the street? 'Isn't that the kind of car she has?'
The guitar. 'Sakura would have loved to play this guitar'
When I look at the stars at night, 'Wow… Sakura's missing a lot. She would smile for a day if she saw this.'
No matter what the object was, It was always her in my mind.
'GOD! I'M GOING CRAZY!"
I feel like I'm being unfaithful. But it doesn't mean I don't
like the feeling. It seems that she makes things easier while Cherry….
I still don't know what I see in her. I can't believe Cherry's
naked beside me… Disgusting… No we didn't do it. But she was
kinda forcing me to. That's why she's naked. She cried and I carried
her to bed and she fell asleep.
My only problem now is… Sakura…

1:57 am
It had been hours since she's talked to matt. Already morning, she continued
making songs…
I'm not an Angel
I smile
I laugh
I kiss
I hug
but I'm not perfect
because behind it all,
I'm selfish and crazy
I crave I miss
Because behind it all
I'm not an angel
I cry every night
I'm not perfect,
Not even close
Coz I'm not an angel
You may think I am pure of heart
Gold conscience
But I have the truth
The truth that it isn't true
Though I do laugh
I also snicker
Though I smile
I also frown
It's no surprise,
It's no blessing
Because I'm not an angel
And I'm sorry
Because behind it all
I'm not an angel
I cry every night
I'm not perfect,
Not even close
Coz I'm not an angel
She read over what she wrote but then decided to crumple it. But instead she
folded it thrice and kept it in a box. After all, Cherry was perfect.
She gazed over at a picture frame with her on Matt's back, she smiled
intently. Once the tour was through, she was going back to Matt.
'What if I made her sing something like 'Kitty kat kitty kat, meow meow meow!' Oh how I would love maker her look stupid!' That thought, made Sakura fall asleep. Though it was a dreamless sleep.
