"Sakura, have you practiced for the talent show?" asked Tomoyo, taking a seat next to Sakura in the cafeteria.
Sakura looked up to a smiling Tomoyo. "Oh, yes I have," she replied, taking a sip from her juice.
"Oohh! That's good!" said Tomoyo, cheerfully.
"I guess so.." mumbled Sakura, moving the food on her plate with her fork.
"Hmm.. I wonder why she's coming here," whisper Tomoyo to herself.
Sakura looked to the direction Tomoyo was looking and saw a girl with two long black pigtails wearing a cheerleading outfit.
"Hey Tomoyo, you..." the girl said giving Sakura a glare.
Sakura raised her eyebrows confused.
"I heard you were trying out for the talent show," she said, narrowing her eyes.
"Yes, that's true," replied Sakura.
"Well, you're not going to win," she said in a snobby voice. "Oh, by the way, stay away from my man, Syaoran."
"Huh?" asked a confused Sakura, when the girl walked away.
Tomoyo laughed. "That's Meilin Rae. She has this huge crush on Syaoran for like years but he hates her. I think she's jealous that he actually helped someone like you and never even looked in her direction."
Sakura thought and nodded. "There are some weird people in this world."
"I agree," said Tomoyo, looking at a person digging his nose and rubbing it on his friend's shirt. She grimaced and looked back at Sakura. "Well, I hope you're ready for that talent show."
"Don't worry, I'm set," replied Sakura, getting up from her seat.

"Hey Syaoran," called out Ryu.
Syaoran turned around and found himself faced to his exhausted friend. "Yo, wat's up?"
"So you going to that talent show?" asked Ryu, after he got his breath.
"It's going to be boring," replied Syaoran, uninterested.
"But Sakura's going to be in it," said Ryu.
Syaoran held his breath when he heard her name. "She's in it?" he asked slowly.
"Yeah, so you going?" asked Ryu, again.
"Uh, I don't know. But maybe if I got nothing to do," said Syaoran, quickly. He turned and started walking away. 'She's going to be in the talent show? Is she even good? What talent does she have?' he asked himself. He shook his head and closed his eyes. 'Take a deep breath and relax.'
He opened his eyes and who did he see? The one and only Sakura.
"H-Hi," stuttered Sakura, smiling at him.
Syaoran's heart seemed to have stopped by her words. "Hey," said Syaoran, giving her a quick smile, making sure no one else saw.
Syaoran saw Sakura blush and he smiled. 'She looks so cute,' he thought.
"Well, since you're here, I was wondering if you were going to the talent show tomorrow," said Sakura, quickly.
"Uh, I guess I'll go," said Syaoran, ruffling his hair.
"Great!" squealed Sakura and walked away quickly. 'Did I act a little too excited?' asked Sakura to herself. 'Oh God I did...'
Syaoran looked after her and shrugged. "She's a funny girl," he mumbled.

"Everybody quiet down, the talent show is about to begin!" announced the host. "I am Gina Yamaguma, your host tonight and your 3 judges are Principal Yamada, Teacher Nakamoto, and our special guest, singer/import model Kaila Yu!" (A/N: ahh couldn't think of anyone at the time)
"Yes, yes, now let the talent show begin!" yelled Gina. The crowd kept cheering and yelling. "Everybody shut up!" Everybody quieted down looking at the red faced girl. "Thank you. Our first participant is Lexi Miyamuri playing the violin!"
After about 12 participants, Meilin Rae was introduced doing a hip hop dance that woke the crowd from the boring participants before. Because she is a cheerleader, she was able to do back flips, back hand springs, front hand springs, the splits and etcetera.
"Ha, the crowd loved me, Kinomoto," said Meilin in a pretentious voice as she passed Sakura in the dressing room. "You're going down, girl."
"Don't worry, Sakura, I bet you can win this talent show," assured Tomoyo, with a warming smile.
"Thanks, Tomo," said Sakura, giving her friend a hug. "I just hope I don't choke."
"I'm sure you'll do fine," replied Tomoyo. "How do you like the dress I made for you?"
Sakura smiled and twirled around and looked at herself in the mirror. "It's beautiful," she whispered. Her dress was pink but as it extended down, the color changes to red. The flowy-like sleeves were off the shoulder, the neckline exposing the two mounds of milky white skin. Her long beautiful hair was half down, the remaining hair were put into a braided bun, letting several strands mix with the hair that was left down.
Tomoyo smiled. "Thank you."
"Next up will be Sakura Kinomoto, singing and playing the piano!" announced the host.
"Sakura, you're up, go!" urged Tomoyo, excitedly. "I wish you luck!"
"Thank you!" yelled Sakura, before she walked onto the stage.
The crowd gasped at the beauty they saw before their eyes and watched in awe she sat onto the piano seat and started playing a soft melody.
"When I first saw you
You were someone I'd never expect
When I first saw you
You were someone I'd never forget.
Everyday I wish to see you
Everyday I wish to be with you
But it's something that won't ever happen
It is something that won't ever be. You and me
To see your rare smile
Whenever we get to meet
Makes me feel so good
Everyway you make my world complete.
I dream to hold you in my arms
I dream to kiss you on your lips
But it's something that won't ever happen
Oh how I wish it could be. You and me.
Sometimes you are a stranger to me
I wonder how you feel inside
The way you feel about me
I don't want you to hide.
Maybe if our lifestyles could be set aside
Cause I don't care what people will say
Because you will always be mine-
In my heart..."
(A/N: If you hear the song, I think you'll like it more than reading the lyrics... but I wrote it and well.. the lyrics sucks haha unless you can prove me wrong..-_-)
When Sakura was playing the final keys to the song, the audience erupted with a loud cheer with a standing ovation. Sakura beamed and stood up to do a curtsy. She walked to the back and Meilin was giving her a look.
"Sakura, you were amazing!" exclaimed Tomoyo. "You were wonderful!"
"Thank you," replied Sakura, happily.
"Well, I pray that you win!" said Tomoyo, excitedly. "You should've seen Syaoran's face when he saw you walk onto the stage. He looked like he saw a ghost!"
Sakura laughed and then sighed.
"Did you write that song for Syaoran...?" asked Tomoyo, noticing Sakura's flushed face when she said his name.
Sakura's face a beet red and she shyly looked down at her shoes.
"Ah-ha!" said Tomoyo. "You're so sweet, Sakura."
Sakura smiled and giggled.
"Sakura, you have to go out with him!" urged Tomoyo, holding Sakura's face with her hands making sure she looks at her.
Sakura moved Tomoyo's hands off. "We'll see, Tomo."
Tomoyo smiled. "That's my girl. If you don't go out with him soon, I'll die!"
Sakura laughed. "Oh by the way, you're having a date with Eriol tomorrow for lunch."
Tomoyo's eyes widened. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Now I have to pick out something or make something to wear! I don't know what to wear! You will come, won't you?"
"Uh... I don't know," mumbled Sakura. "I don't want to be the third wheel."
"Well, bring Syaoran," suggested Tomoyo.
"Ahh! NO!" yelled Sakura, her eyes bulging out.
"Come on, pleeeeeeeassssssssssseeee," begged Tomoyo. "I did help you around school on the first day here."
Sakura sighed and gave in. "That is true. If it wasn't for you, I'd be out of it."
Tomoyo smiled. "Yay!"
"The judges are done deciding who the winners will be, will the contestants please come out onto the stage," announced the host.
"Ooh, I better go!" squealed Sakura, excited.
"You better win or I'll attack the judges!" said Tomoyo, flexing her muscles.
Sakura laughed and entered the stage along with the other contestants. She looked around the audience looking for Syaoran and saw him standing in the back looking straight at her. She smiled and she thought she saw him smile too.
"The participant that placed 3rd is Lexi Miyamuri!" yelled Gina, reading the envelope. She handed Lexi a trophy and an envelope.
"The 2nd placed winner is Meilin Rae!" announced Gina.
"What?!" yelled Meilin, looking very upset. "I'm supposed to be in first place! I've always won first place!"
"Well, you're not," said Gina, giving her a glare.
"I can't believe this!" yelled Meilin, tears gushed down her cheeks and she grabbed her trophy and envelope and ran off the stage.
'I didn't know she would take it that hard,' thought Sakura. 'I guess the talent show meant a lot to her.'
"Well, Congratulations to the first place winner, Sakura Kinomoto!" announced Gina.
Sakura beamed while the audience clapped and cheered.

Sakura was being congratulated and complimented when she was walking to her second to the last period of the day. Tomoyo had to help clean the auditorium up so she was allowed to skip the last two periods.
Sakura sighed with happiness, carrying her big trophy that seemed to weigh a ton. "I didn't think I'd win," she said to herself and looked up to the sky. "I hope you're proud of me."
"Who are you talking to?" a familiar voice asked behind her.
She turned around and faced Syaoran. She smiled, her heart beating rapidly but her smiled faded when she thought of her mother.
"What's wrong?" asked Syaoran sympathetically, in a soft voice.
"It's nothing," she whispered, tears filling her eyes and she looked down to the ground.
"No, you're crying. So there must be something wrong," said Syaoran, coming closer to Sakura.
"It's nothing, don't worry," said Sakura, backing away from him.
"Did something happen to your mom?" asked Syaoran, taking Sakura's trophy and placing it on the bench that was near them.
"Y-yes," stuttered Sakura, tears sliding down her cheeks.
Syaoran brought his hand up and held Sakura's cheek in his hand, wiping the tears with his thumb. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to," he whispered. Sakura could feel his breath close to her face.
"My mother passed away," she whispered slowly.
Syaoran looked away, sadness expressed on his face. "I know how you feel. My mother died also."
Sakura's eyes widened. "I'm sorry."
"Me too."
'This is the longest time he's ever talked to me,' thought Sakura. 'I didn't know he could be so sensitive.'
"I-I better go," said Syaoran, quickly, noticing they were the only ones outside of class.
"Me too," said Sakura, wiping her face with her hands. "I'll see you around."
"Uh, yeah," said Syaoran, walking away but turned around. "You're a really good singer and piano player."
Sakura smiled. 'That's it?' she thought. "Uh, thanks!" She grabbed her trophy and walked to her next class.
*
~*~*~*~ the next day
*
"I didn't ask Syaoran to lunch," said Sakura, lying on her bed. "Ahh.. I forgot."
She got up and started dressing herself. "The other clothing were much comfortable and it's getting hotter and I have to wear this dress!"
She looked at herself in the mirror. "I look like such a fool! Tomoyo was absolutely right!"
"Sakura," said her maid, Yuki. "Eriol is on the phone for you."
Sakura had her hand out and Yuki handed her the phone. "Hello?"
"Ah, Sakura, hello, it's Eriol."
"Ah, yes, hello, it's you," mocked Sakura, with a laugh.
Eriol laughed. "Well, I don't know Tomoyo's number but I'm sorry that I have to cancel the date."
"What!?" yelled Sakura.
"Ow, don't have to yell so loud now do we?" said Eriol.
"Sorry. It's just that Tomoyo's been looking forward to it," said Sakura."
"Oh, darn. Maybe I can make an arrangement for tonight... Let me check my plans for today."
"Okay."
"Ah, yes I can do something tonight. Oh, how about we go to this club I've heard that is really good," suggested Eriol.
"A club? My father would not allow that," said Sakura.
"Of course not. That's why, I'll pretend I'm taking you to a dinner and some fireworks on a boat and some fancy stuff that you're father would believe. Then we'll go to Tomoyo's house to change I guess and then we'll head down to the club. How's that?"
"Oh, I guess that'll be all right," said Sakura then she thought. "When have you been going to clubs?"
Eriol laughed. "Hey, a guy has to have a good time some day."
Sakura nodded. "Yeah but so should a lady."
"Sorry Sakura but since this afternoon, I'm booked so I can't talk to you all day," said Eriol with a laugh.
"Oh, yes, I'm sorry. Good day."
"Good day to you too. I'll be picking you up at around 8."
"Okay, bye."
They both hung up the phone. "I have to call Tomoyo. Yuki, can you get me the line to the Daidouji's?"
"Yes, Sakura," answered Yuki, getting the number. Then she handed the phone to Sakura.
"Hello?"
"Hi Tomoyo," greeted Sakura.
"Oh hi Sakura. What's up?"
"Well, Eriol had to cancel the lunch date so we're going clubbing instead. He's picking me up at my house at 8 so we'll go to your house to change because you know my father," explained Sakura.
"I see. I didn't know Eriol clubs. I thought he was a gentleman," said Tomoyo.
"I know. Just what I said and he said that he has to have a good time some day," said Sakura.
Tomoyo laughed. "That's true. I guess it can be a bit boring just doing work all the time."
"Yeah."
"So did you ask Syaoran yet?"
"What? No."
"Sakura..."
"Tomoyo..."
"I'll call him for you," offered Tomoyo.
"No!!!" yelled Sakura. "Uh, I will."
"That's a good girl."
"Okay, bye then."
"Bye, bye."
They both hung up on the phone.
Sakura sat on the bed. "I don't want to call him..."
'Oh but you do' said a voice in her head.
"No, I don't."
'Yes, you do.'
"No."
'Yes.'
"No."
'Yes'
"Stop it!!!!"
'Call him, Sakura.'
"NNOOO!!"
'Call him, call him!'
"Ahh no!" yelled Sakura and threw the phone to the floor.
Yuki ran into the room. "What is the matter my lady?"
"Ahh, nothing. I think I need to rest."
"Do you wish me to close the curtains?" asked Yuki.
"Yes, please do so," replied Sakura, closing her eyes.
