Summary: She has always been ignored and shunned away but a single dream has her living. In till she meets the boy in her dream… This is bad but then good…

Sakura searched the big crowd and noticed every single person was with someone. But Sakura was only by herself… neglected from everyone around her…

Sakura looked down and sighed.

I have to be strong! Just keep your head up high and take the plunge!

"Sakura, what is it you want! Do you want to make me look like a loser in front of all these people!" Asked Touya who just came out of no where.

"No…" Sakura whispered.

"Good then go home! I expect to see a wonderful dinner when I get home! Understand?" Asked Touya.

Sakura nodded.

"Good! Now leave!" Touya said pointing away. Tears fell from Sakura's eyes.

Touya looked at Sakura. "I'm sorry… I don't want to be mean it's just… I want to stay cool… and… if I hang around you I will be un-cool…." Touya said looking sadly at Sakura.

"It's ok. Really…" Sakura whispered.

"But Sakura…" Sakura started running away.

No more excuses! I'm going to… What am I going to do? I guess I have no other choice but make dinner.

Sakura let more tears fall.

"You know you can cry once in a while. It helps you feel better." Sakura recalled what Syaoran said.

Over and over again she repeated the phrase in her head. She let all her anger, sadness, and responsibility come out in the tears.

Sakura went to the grocery store and brought all the things she needed.

Sakura took the long way home.

And she spotted her brother with his friends. They were all laughing.

"How do you get your little sister to do that? I wish I could do that!" Someone said.

"Oh she just does it. She always listens to what I say. If not she'll get in trouble from dad." All of them laughed again.

Sakura dropped the bags and ran. She ran all the way to Lake Emerald that shined so brightly it reminded her of her mother's eyes because the water was as green as an emerald and it shined so brightly. Sakura wanted to cry her eyes out but she just stared at the water. If you looked closely maybe just maybe you could see yourself staring back at you. And that's exactly what Sakura saw. BUT she saw another figure… Syaoran!

Sakura spun around. "I'm sorry did I scare you?" Asked Syaoran taking a step back. Sakura nodded no.

"Are you alright?" Asked Syaoran.

"I'm fine…" Sakura turned her head away so he couldn't see her face.

She couldn't hold it in any longer. Sakura burst into tears.

Syaoran then took Sakura in his arms and rocked back and forth in till Sakura was only whimpering.

Sakura looked over the water. "When I was a little girl my mom used to cradle me in her arms and rock me back and forth till I fell asleep."

"Your mom sounded nice." Syaoran said soothingly.

"She was!" Sakura said happily. "She used to always be there for me and let me be the person who I wanted to be…" Sakura said happily but then her expression changed to sadness. "Then… she… died." Sakura said.

"Oh. I'm sorry!" Syaoran said with a pinch of sadness in his voice but still soothingly.

"Thank you…" Sakura whispered. "You're the first person to spend 5 minutes talking to me." Sakura whispered getting drowsy.

"Oh really? Why?" Asked Syaoran.

Sakura frowned. "I… really don't know…" Sakura said finally wondering that question.

"I guess they just think I'm not important." Sakura finally said.

"Well I think you're important!" Syaoran said soothingly and defensively.

"Really?" Asked Sakura getting out of his grip and looking at him questionably.

"Yes. I truly think you're important not only to me but to everyone else too… at least to your family…" Syaoran said soothingly.

"No not my family. There're the ones that started it!" Sakura said sadly.

"Oh." Syaoran said running out of ideas.

Sakura looked at the sunset. "It's beautiful." Sakura said sighing.

"Yes you are…" Syaoran said under his breath.

Sakura looked at him. "What did you say?"

"Oh! Um nothing! It was nothing!" Syaoran said blushing slightly.

Sakura smiled. He thinks I'm beautiful! I'm so happy!

Sakura then leaned her head against his shoulder.

"Hu?" Syaoran then noticed she was leaning on him.

He rapped her into a hug and she landed on his lap.

"Good night Sakura." Syaoran whispered soothingly and lovingly in Sakura's ear.

Then Sakura closed her eyes and didn't open them again for the rest of the day.
