Last Time:

'What am I gonna do now?' She thought as she rubbed her eyes with hands. "Why am I all alone in the time where I need friends the most?"

"But you aren't alone. Right now that is." said a soft voice in front of her. She hadn't realized someone was there, watching her cry.

Chapter 4: (( Fraternizing with the enemy ))

Tomoyo froze when she heard the voice. 'Crap, it better not be Li making fun of me' she thought as she slowly lifted her head. She was surprised to see Eriol looking straight into her teary eyes, concern was written all on his face.

"What's wrong Tomoyo?" The way he said her name oh-so-sweetly made her eyes collect tears again. Eriol, being a gentleman, sat down with her and held her in his arms.

She cried on his shoulder and once her tears stopped and her breathing became slower, he looked into her eyes and smiled.

She gave him a small smile but then froze when she saw Sakura walking towards her. Sakura's fists were still in a ball and she was about to explode.

Now, when she saw Tomoyo and Eriol, she froze in her place. Tomoyo widened her eyes and cried out to Sakura, "It's not what it looks like!"

Sakura just glared at her friend and closed her eyes. "I thought you were best friend, yet you patronize the enemy… how could you do this Tomoyo?"

"How could I? How could I? How come you always fight with Syaoran whenever you see him? How come you always trash talk him in just about every conversation we have? How did you come to hate him so much over the years?" Sobbed Tomoyo. Sakura just glared at her and ran away from the tree.

She wrapped her arms around her knees and cried. Eriol tried to pat her back but backed away from his touch.

"Don't touch me Hiiragizawa, you're part of the reason. Just go away… please." Eriol sighed and walked away, leaving Tomoyo with her confused emotions and thoughts.

Sakura ran away from the school, from Tomoyo and from the guilt of yelling at her one true friend. 'Dammit, I'm such a bitch at times.'

She sighed and continued running to a place she hadn't planned on running to, the Penguin Park.

There she slowed down when she saw no one and sat on one of the swings. There she recollected her thoughts on what just happened in the café at school.

"Ahh, why do I always get mad at Li whenever I see him? Well, it's because he treated me like his little sister and the next thing he's insulting me and saying shit about me… what friend does that?"

She bent her head and slowly pushed herself with her feet.

Flashback

Sakura was running with her long, brown hair shimmering cascading behind her. The sun was shining down brightly and Sakura giggling all the way to Penguin Park to see Syaoran.

It was a Sunday afternoon and she had just come back from her tae kwon do and violin lessons so she was free for the afternoon. "Hi Sayo-kun!" Sakura screamed as she neared the park. Syaoran looked up from where he was sitting and waved at her.

She panted and brought her hands to her knees after she got to Syaoran. He laughed and said, "You should start to run more if you're out of breath already." Sakura pouted to him and he hugged her.

"You're just too cute when you pout! I can never insult you!" Sakura laughed and wrapped her arms around him. She let go and said, "Let's start running if you're going to help train me okay Syao-kun!"

Syaoran chuckled and said, "Fine. Race you to the Arwen's Bakery Shop!" With that he started jogging in that direction. Sakura ran after him and adjusted to his speed.

"If you go at this pace, it will help you start to train and you won't get as tired if you sprint the whole way, since you're not used to it." Sakura smiled brightly at him and said, "Okay Syao-kun, I will always remember your advice." Syaoran smiled and patted her head. "You better remember me if we ever part alright Sakura?"

Sakura blinked innocently and she replied, "Of course Syao-kun. What would ever split us a part though? We will always be best friends… forever and ever and ever and——"

Syaoran stopped jogging as Sakura tripped on her shoelaces that came undone and fell over onto the pavement.

"Ow ow ow ow!" Sakura scraped her knees and elbows and it was bleeding a lot. "Oh no Sakura!" He bent down and picked her up. "Syao-kun…" she said, her eyes filled with unshed tears.

"Don't cry Sakura. I'll always be here to help you. So don't cry kay?" Sakura smiled, closed her eyes and leaned her head into his chest. "I'll remember that Syao-kun… ill remember that."

End of Flashback

His advice had always stuck with me throughout all those years. He said he would always protect me… but I guess that wasn't the case after all. He lied to me, and he didn't keep his promise.

But why am I always having mixed thoughts about him? Why does my heart always tell me something different than my head?

Sakura sighed and wiped the tears off her face. There was no need to shed tears… it was special before, when she was young

'But it can never happen again.' She thought about it and stopped swinging, tears dripping down her face.

After she composed herself and calmed down, she headed towards her house. As she was walking home, she thought about all the events that occurred today.

'Man, I think I was being a bit overboard…' She frowned. "But that doesn't mean what the others did was right either!" She snorted and shook her head at that. She got to the front of her house and looked up.

'Such a big place for only two people…' she unlocked the door and opened it when she heard a voice.

"Oi, Sakura! Is that you? Come in and help me make some vanilla and hazelnut cake. I can't find the stiry thingy that you use to err stir... " The voice frustrated called out.

Sakura heaved a sigh but cracked a smile as she closed the front door and walked into the brightly-lit kitchen. There was her brother juggling more than he could carry with her mother's light pink apron and flour on his cheek and in his hair.

Her older brother could always make her smile, even in the most difficult times.

"Hi Oni. Need some help with that?" Sakura said as she raised her eyebrow. "Tsk tsk, you know you shouldn't make vanilla and hazelnut cake without me, you always seem to get into a mess!"

Touya crinkled up his nose and sneezed. "Just help me you little squirt!"

Sakura rolled her eyes. "ya ya. Lemme just put away my school stuff first." she ran up the stair to her room. She smiled as she walked in her white room with light pink Sakura flowers painted decoratively around the walls.

She jumped on her queen size, four poster bed and sighed. She got up from her bed to walk to her balcony. There was a slight breeze and she closed her eyes.

'I wonder. If Li and me were still friends… would I still feel lonely like I am right now? Would I be more happy and won't get angered easily?'

"Sakuraaaa! Help meee…" A whiny voice floated to her ears. Sakura chuckled. She totally forgot about Touya and his horrible baking skills.

"Coming! And I hope you didn't burn anything!" She took one last glance to the sky and headed in, not knowing someone was watching her.

Soo? Soo? ya im kind of rusty in writing stories now… :S but then again… I wasn't very good at em anyways! Please R&R.
