A/N: Happy Birthday Syaoran Li! I'm posting this today as a treat to celebrate!

Ok I have a question...would you guys be able to handle cursing/swearing/foul language? Tell me what your ok with because I want to know if I can add some (like I already didn't) or if I should just change the rating.

Special Thanks to: Destiny-chan,cYaL8rGrL, Sunel, Monito, Mew Sakura, Windflight, EvilSugaCheryGirl, 666loser666, lilbuti, litod3vil. most of you found the last chapter sad...excellent...mwahaha!

FlowerLover: I'm dedicating this next chapter to you because you reviewed under the ten minutes that I first posted this chapter! Pretty Amazing!

Convoy Butterfly: Ok then...this is not an AU fic...I have no idea what that means but yah... so I used their names...I'm just trying to make a fanfic about SxS and my own version of them. If you don't like their personalities that I gave them than that's fine with me. Did you read the part of Lisa's family background? She'd popular since they all know she's rich and has famous parents. If they didn't have the personalities that I gave them then this story would probably never happen and S+S would live happily ever after...what kind of story would that be? They might be out of character now but you never know...I might change them later on. They aren't little kids anymore so I could've added some information later on to why they aren't what they're supposed to be like clamp made them. I'm going to change my mind and put E+T in this story... since many people prefer this couple than Eriol and Kaho.

Wow...so many people viewed my story but they didn't review...How the heck will I know what you thought about this story? I guess I won't know huh? You don't deserve to read this chapter! ahahaha! I'm just kidding! here y'all go...

Disclaimer: Once again I don't own CCS.

..:Chapter Two:..

The Lonely Flower

Umm...I'm not sure if I mentioned this but Sakura, Tomoyo, Eriol and Syaoran plus other characters are in their last year of high school...I'm going to say that they're seventeen/eighteen.

After a while it was getting pretty late than it originally was when Sakura started crying. She stood up and wiped her eyes. She slowly walked sleepily home as she still wondered why Syaoran, her friend for three years, would choose Lisa, whom he barely knows just because she had good looks. 'How shallow can he get' thought Sakura angrily. She then wondered what would've happened if she was like Lisa: pretty, popular, rich and all. Would Syaoran like her as well? Would their friendship be spared? Would their have been a chance that they could've been together? She wouldn't think about that now.

What would her brother think if she wasn't in five sports in her school, just like he did when he was in school previously? Would he be even more disappointed in her to not even bother to speak to her at all? She needed to find another sport to make him proud and to make him at least have some respect for her. She had to make him have at least some kind of good emotion to come from him and this was the only way she knew how. But what else is their? She was already doing volley-ball, basket-ball, track-and field, and swimming. She needed to find another way back on the soccer team, or at least something else. She couldn't join the girls soccer team since it's already full and she couldn't join the wrestling team or rugby since the season was already over. Unfortunately, Sakura thought that no matter what she did she would never please her older brother.

She looked at her surroundings and realized her house was a mess. She looked around to find crumbs on the couch, punch on the floor and all the little things misplaced. Tomoyo had left a note telling her that she had to be on her way since it was late and she hoped that Sakura was ok. She sighed knowing that tomorrow she'd clean up this mess and how this was the last party that she threw for the soccer team.

Sakura took off her clothes and headed to her washroom where she would take a warm shower. She didn't know what time it was but she knew that she didn't want to fall asleep yet. She looked at her reflection in the mirror and wasn't surprised that her eyes were red and puffy while her skin was pale. She sighed knowing that she would never be able to compete against Lisa in beauty wise as she entered the refreshing water that ran down her hair and body. Sakura didn't have time to compete against Lisa right now. All she really wanted to do was help her family... especially Touya. She needed to be strong...for everyone including herself.

Syaoran was in his room staring at his ceiling and recalling of what happened that night. He wondered if he had made the right choice of choosing to be with Lisa. They both had good qualities but yet he was curious to see what Lisa would have to offer. What would become of Sakura now? He pictured Sakura in his mind... still crying about the lost of friendship. He closed his eyes, wishing that this night never happened and no one got hurt because of him. Wishing that he never caused pain.

Syaoran woke up on the Saturday morning by the sound of the telephone ring. He woke up grumbling about how he was disturbed and answered the phone. He quickly answered it... hoping it was Sakura apologizing for over reacting or something.

"Hello?" he began timidly into the phone.

"Hey Syaoran-kun! How was last night? Hope you didn't do anything naughty with my Sakura-Chan!" said the voice on the other line. Syaoran sighed knowing Sakura would never be the one who would call to talk about friendship and emotions.

"Do you even know what time it is Tomoyo?" he asked while rubbing his eyes

"That doesn't matter. Just tell me all of the details!"

"We didn't do anything. It's over Tomoyo. She ended our friendship last night." Their was a long pause. Syaoran thought she hung up on him until she heard her explode on the other end.

"She did what? Why on earth would she do that?"

"It's a very long story. I kicked her off the team so I could have a shot with Lisa by having Logan on the team instead and..." Tomoyo cut him off.

"Wait a minute...you kicked her off the soccer team for some girl?"

"Hehehe! Yah. I thought she would understand...being my best friend and all."

"You...you bastard! Haven't you ever figured that you would understand that being on the soccer team would help her get her brother to at least once say something emotionally nice to her? Or did you just only cared about your wants? Haven't you ever wondered why she's like this since the death of her mother?"

"I...I never knew. She told me something about it but I never paid attention."

"I can't believe you! Your one of the most ignorant person I've ever come across to meet! I'm never talking to you again!" she screamed for the final time before she slammed the phone down.

Syaoran stared at the phone in shock. It seemed like every time he tried something to get Lisa, it pushed his closest friends away. First Sakura and now Tomoyo. Maybe all of this was a mistake. Maybe he was not meant to be with Lisa. He shook his head. 'I've done too much to back out now when she already is in my reach' he thought as he laid back down on his bed, looking at his ceiling.

The auburn haired girl was breathing heavily as she ran on the sidewalk. Sakura was currently doing her one hour run in the morning, just like what she would do every morning since she couldn't sleep in. Her brother trained her to get up early and after five years she's been able to get up at five thirty. She kept on running her normal route until she spotted someone walking the opposite direction on the other side of the curb. She looked at the figure for a second before she smiled at the realization of whom it was.

"Eriol! Eriol wait up!" she screamed with the air that she still had left. He turned around with his navy blue hair properly in place and still looking handsome and gentlemanly as ever as his azure eyes behind his rounded glasses twinkled in the sunlight. He smiled, waved at her and waited until she regained her breath.

"Hello to you to Sakura. Still doing your morning runs I see?" he asked.

"Uhuh! I haven't seen you in a long time Eriol. When did you get back from England?" she asked as she looked over at her friend as they walked along the side walk.

"I just got back last night when I came to your house only to find Tomoyo their. We decided to leave since it was getting very late." he said simply as Sakura remembered the note of Tomoyo telling her that she left. Usually Tomoyo would've stayed behind and slept over at Sakura's place no matter what. Sakura sighed at how lucky Tomoyo must be to have someone she loves to love her back so much that even when they were apart for a couple of months they still love each other so much.

"So how was your night with Syaoran? By the way Tomoyo told me, it seems as though you and him were going to do something that me and Tomoyo would've done," he said with a grin but then stopped when he saw Sakura's mood drop and her face frowned.

"Li-kun isn't my friend nor anything close to that. He betrayed me Eriol! What the hell am I supposed to do now?" she said as she hugged him and cried. Eriol saddened at her outburst and comforted her.

"It's ok Sakura. I know how you feel. Deep down inside...you love him," he whispered to her. Sakura let go of him and was confused.

"How do you know?"

"Because I too was betrayed. I used to have a thing for Kaho but she rejected me, saying that she'd only have feelings for Clow Reed. I was hurt so I moved to Japan. I met you, Tomoyo and Syaoran and slowly my thoughts of Kaho were exchanged by Tomoyo with each moment spent together. Now the only person I practically ever think of Tomoyo-Chan!" Sakura smiled at his words for they were so sincere.

"Maybe theirs also someone better for me. I haven't even told him my feelings. I'm just afraid he'll reject me the same way as he rejected our friendship. I don't ever want to feel that pain again Eriol." she sighed.

"Take chances Sakura. What ever happens me and Tomoyo will always be by your side." he said reassuringly.

"Thanks Eriol. I better continue on with my run now. I'll see you later!" she said as she ran back to continue onto her normal route.

Syaoran was eating his normal breakfast when his doorbell rang. He grumbled at the thought of all the interruptions and decided to answer the door anyways. On his steps he saw a black haired guy grinning at him.

"What do you want Logan?" asked Syaoran in a bored and annoyed tone.

"Just checking up on my soccer captain." he replied innocently.

"Well I'm perfectly fine so you can go away." he said as he tried to exit him from his property.

"Don't you want to hear the information for your date tonight?" he said making Syaoran stop to look at him. "Thought you'd say it my way. You can pick her up at our house at seven." Syaoran nodded and thanked Logan. Logan was about to leave before Syaoran said.

"Practice is at Monday after school. Enjoy your weekend...pal!" he said with a smile

"Sure thing...buddy!" smirked Logan as he walked away.

Syaoran drove up the street in his black Lexus to where he'd find the Wong's mansion. He finally spotted their number on the big mansion and entered the gate cautiously. He parked and walked towards the entrance. He made sure he looked decent by running a hand threw his hair and checking his clothes for any dirt. Syaoran was dressed casually, with black jeans and a forest green sleeveless shirt. He rang the doorbell and waited patiently for someone to answer. The large door opened and he smiled at the girl in front of him.

"Hey Syaoran-kun!" said Lisa with a bright smile. Syaoran shifted nervously with a light blush as he looked at her form. She seemed different than at school with her blond hair in curls and having tons more of make-up with her short black skirt and navy halter top. Standing in front of him, Lisa reminded him of the victory party and all of those other girls. He shook his head knowing all girls would be alike and he shouldn't expect his perfect girl when she was already there.

"Hello Lisa-Chan! I brought you flowers!" he said with a smile as he showed the pink flowers that he had hidden behind his back. Lisa's smile turned into a frown once she knew what they were. Syaoran, being the one who could detect something wrong, asked her what was wrong.

"These are cherry blossoms Syaoran-kun...I'm not very fond of them...sorry." she said a little awkwardly.

"Oh...sorry I never knew. They're Sakura's favourites so I thought you might like it as well." he explained while throwing the flowers in a nearby bush.

"That's ok Syaoran-kun... let's just go somewhere." she said with a fake smile as she lead him off the front steps and back to his car.

"I was thinking of going to a movie." he said

"That's fine with me." she said as she leaned her head on his shoulder, making Syaoran intoxicated in her strong perfume. He coughed a little and moved away from her to let them hold hands instead. He opened his passenger door for her to enter and closed it behind her. He sighed knowing this would definitely somehow go wrong.

A black haired boy came out of his hiding spot in his bushes after the couple left. He smirked as he took the flowers that Syaoran threw and headed down the street towards an average size house that had a calm and cheerful atmosphere. As he stepped on the front steps a figure came out of the door who said goodbye to someone who was inside and was in a hurry to get out. She locked the door and looked up with a surprised expression to whom was their.

"H-hi Wong! What brings you here?" she said a little coldly.

"I thought I'd stop by and give you these flowers," he smiled as he handed them over to her. Sakura's face brightened as she saw them.

"Thanks Wong-kun! They're my favourite!"

"I thought you'd like them!" he said as she watched her smell them.

"That's very nice of you but I have to get going...I'm meeting some friends of mine."

"Let me guess...Daidouji and Hiiragizawa?" he asked with a smirk. Sakura glared and said,

"That's right. So you better get out of my way before I make you get out of my way."

Logan did as he was told and walked beside her on the sidewalk.

"Well...how about if I tag along so you won't be known as the third wheel?" he asked hoping she would accept. Sakura thought for a second before saying,

"How about no. "

"I promise I won't do anything... just as long as I'm near you I'll be fine." Sakura thought for a second of what would happen if Logan wasn't their. Tomoyo and Eriol would probably forget about her and be love sick as usual. Sakura sighed and finally said,

"Ok then you may come along...but if you try to touch me you'll be dead."

he grinned. Sakura rolled her eyes as she tried to be as far as possible on the sidewalk as they walked along and Logan doing all the talking.

"Why don't you drive like everyone else?" asked Logan out of the blue.

"Why don't you shut up?" she asked him back with a annoyed look.

"I promise I'll be quiet from now on...so spill." he said eagerly to know her reason. She sighed hoping that he'd keep his word and slowly said with a tint of pink from being embarrassed,

"I'm like a maniac on the road. I live for speed an the rush. I guess I got caught to many times so they took away my licence."

"Wow! You must have been doing over 100!" said Logan who was impressed.

"Something like that," grinned Sakura who was feeling a little more relaxed as they kept on walking towards their destination.

"Sakura should have been here by now." said Tomoyo worriedly as she drank her soda.

"Don't worry Sakura always shows up late so she'll be here in no time" he said reassuringly. She smiled at him and nodded. The doors opened once again and they were glad to see Sakura finally walk in. Tomoyo's face turned into a frown when her eyes landed on the dark haired boy beside her. Sakura looked around the place before spotting Eriol and Tomoyo. She waved and walked towards them.

"What is he doing here?" whispered Tomoyo to Eriol as they put smiles on their faces and waved back.

"Let's find out," he whispered back as the two people approached them.

"Hey everyone! This is Wong-kun, you know...Wong-Chan's twin? I asked him to join us so I wouldn't feel left out," explained Sakura because she knew what was on their mind.

"Left out? The whole idea was that you could talk with us about your feelings!" exclaimed Tomoyo a little too loudly.

"Oh...hehehe. Well how about we enjoy our night and talk later alright?" she said.

"That would be great," said Eriol with a smile and his hand over Tomoyo's mouth to stop her from bursting out again.

Syaoran wasn't having a good time. When they reached the movie theatre over thousands of boys came rushing at Lisa while ditching their own girlfriends. He frowned seeing she wasn't doing anything to stop it and instead she was enjoying all of the attention. Syaoran left her to sit down on a chair in the lobby. As he was about to fall asleep someone poked him in the chest.

"Their you are Syaoran! I've been looking all over for you!" smiled Lisa.

"Oh...umm... I was around," he said coming back to life. He checked the watch he had on and sighed, "We already missed the movie we were supposed to see."

"I'm really sorry Syaoran... how about I treat you to some ice-cream from this place I know just down the road!" she said to try to make up for her behaviour for making them miss the movie. Syaoran smiled and said,

"That would be nice. But let me treat. I'm the one who wanted to go out with you in the first place."

"Ok then...let's just walk their since it's not too far," she said as she lead Syaoran down the sidewalk towards the place.

Surprisingly Sakura was having a good time. Tonight she found out how good of a sense of humour Logan really had. Tomoyo and Eriol seemed to have a good time too as they listened to Logan's jokes. Sakura was about to take another sip of the soda that she ordered until she looked at the big rectangular window to see a couple walk by. She rubbed her eyes to see if it was really who she thought it was. After she knew she wasn't dreaming she decided she had to make a run for it since she couldn't handle it at the moment. She stood up quickly and was about to move until Logan spoke,

"Where are you going Sakura?"

"None of your business Wong-kun," she said coldly as she rushed off towards the restroom. Logan sighed knowing how Sakura still didn't like him and continued eating some fries.

As the couple entered the place Lisa smirked as she saw an auburn haired girl head towards the washroom. She faced her date and said,

"I'm just going to use the washroom Syaoran-kun. If I'm not their when you order could you get me a plain vanilla cone?" Syaoran nodded and watched her leave. He was about to head towards the counter when he spotted three familiar faces. He smiled and tried to wave at them but he only received a death glare from Tomoyo and a disapproving look from Eriol. He wondered if Eriol knew what had happened between Sakura and him and guessed that Tomoyo probably already told him. Syaoran then saw Logan sitting with them and wondered why he was with him. He shrugged it off and decided that he should order.

"Hi I'd like one plain vanilla and one chocolate cone..."

Sakura sighed as she splashed water on her face and turned off the sink. She was about to press the blow dryer until the door opened. She looked to see who it was and wasn't surprised when Lisa came in.

"What do you want Wong-Chan?" Sakura asked coldly as she stared at the mirror to Lisa's reflection.

"Don't I have a right to be at a public restroom?" she asked innocently.

"Not when I'm in it," replied Sakura bitingly making it known she wasn't welcomed anywhere near her.

"Your just jealous...because I stole your man," she said out of the blue.

"If you're talking about Li-kun...he was never mine!" she said 'and he never will be' she thought sadly.

"Oh yah that's right! Because I take away everything that you love! Only this time it will be your best friend," she said, feeling superior and making Sakura's blood boil as she clenched her hands into fists.

"You F---ing bitch!" shouted Sakura as she came up to her. Sakura's fist connected to her face in a swift movement that seemed to be powerful since Lisa was sent flying out of the washroom doors. Sakura came out after her only to see that Lisa was on the ground with a bleeding nose. She smirked at her damage that she caused and closed her eyes, savouring the moment.

"You'll pay for this Kinomoto! I swear I'll get revenge!" she cried as she clutched her nose in pain. Sakura saw Syaoran rushing by and trying to help Lisa up. Sakura's face slumped at his actions and turned away from the scene, not being able to face Syaoran at the moment.

"Oh Syaoran-kun it was horrible! I was just in their to use the facilities when this ugly tomboy came up and punched me!" sobbed Lisa as she cried in his arms while pointing a finger at Sakura, the other hand on her nose trying to prevent blood from escaping. Feeling sympathy towards Lisa, Syaoran said sharply,

"Why did you do this to her Sakura?" Sakura still didn't face him but she spoke quietly but firm.

"First of all it's Kinomoto to you Li-kun. Secondly it doesn't matter what I say since you won't believe me so what's the use. And thirdly: you're lucky that she only got one blow on the nose." she said as she walked out of the diner leaving spectators watching silently at the scene but more importantly: a smirking Logan, a worried Eriol, a content Tomoyo, a surprised Syaoran and a scared Lisa who was still holding onto her nose.

A/N: Well their you go! Thought I'd add a little violence on Lisa to make some readers happy.

Does anyone want to be my beta reader? I'm sort of new to all this and one of the reviewers suggested that I get one...or I think that's what they meant. Sorry for the mistakes. Anyways...R&R!
