Disclaimer- I don't own CCS or any of its characters. If I did I probably wouldn't be writing a fanfic now would I. Oo

Author's Note- Well I finally got out of my writer's block. You can thank Chinita92 for "pushing" me to continue the story. I know I would've finished it eventually but I just have been a little distracted. Well, enough talk, it is now time for chapter 3 of Biography of a Teenage Heart!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sakura was woken up by a familiar voice.

"Dinner's ready, get down here before it gets cold!" shouted her dad.

She couldn't believe she had fallen asleep. She stared at her clock, waiting for her eyes to adjust to the light in her room.

"6 o' clock, that's weird. Daddy usually starts dinner earlier" she thought to herself.

Sakura didn't think much of it. She scuttled down the stairs and into the dining room.

"Yummy, pepperoni pizza!" said Sakura. "What's the occasion?"

"Nothing in particular, I was just running late from work and I decided to pick up some pizza"

Sakura immediately dove into the box and started eating. She couldn't help but notice that her dad was eating his pizza awfully slow. There had to be something going on that he wasn't telling her. Still, she waited for him to come out with it himself. It was always the same procedure with him. He would buy pizza as bait to keep us calm and then reveal whatever he has on his mind.

It took him several minutes to spit it out, but when he did, Sakura was furious.

"You want to what?!" shouted Sakura.

" I want to start dating again. I wanted to run this by you and ask you for an opinion", explained her father.

"Why in the world would you wanna do that?" asked Sakura.

"Well it has been really quiet around the house ever since your brother went off to college. And I think it is about time I move on", answered Sakura's dad.

"Does Tori know about this?" asked Sakura.

"I called your brother today and he said he was okay with me dating. Why are you being so difficult about this ", said her father.

"But don't you care about mom? Don't you miss her?" retorted Sakura.

Tears were going down her cheeks as she tried to understand her father's logic. Sakura's head was spinning; this was all happening way too fast for her.

"Of course I miss your mother but it has been a little over a decade and I think it is about time we move on", replied her father.

Sakura felt as if she was going to faint. She tried to get up but she lost her footing and collapsed on the chair. Quickly she recovered and ran up to her room. She slammed the door behind her and found shelter under the sheets of her bed. There she cried for the second time today.

A few minutes later, Sakura's dad came in to check up on her. He decided to give her some time before he went in for his next attempt.

"Are you okay Sakura? I didn't mean to hurt your feelings," said her father.

No sound came from under the sheets; Sakura's dad assumed she was still not talking to him.

"Sakura, it is really hard for me to say this but with or without your approval, I'm going to start dating again. This is something I just have to do. Besides, it would be nice to have more of a woman's touch in the house" explained Sakura's father.

None of this seemed to be getting at her. Sakura's dad took a seat next to her bed, he was going to be there for a while if he wanted to get through to her.

"You really can't expect the silent treatment to work on me do you?" teased her father.

Just then he felt a cool breeze and he noticed the window was open. Hesitantly he uncovered the bed sheets only to find pillows and a note. He quickly picked it up to read what was on it. It was exactly what he had suspected.

Sakura has runaway!!!
