Sakura's POV

"Haih… If you were only here Hiei. You were the only one that could make me laugh. No, you were not a friend. You were even more that that. You were my first love. How can I ever forget you but how can I forgive you for leaving me?" I said thinking to myself. I was holding my favorite picture of my childhood friend, Hiei, Tomoyo and I. It was taken at the beach when we were only 7. He would cheer me up when I was upset and feeling lonely. He left one day because of his parents. I still remember what he said…..

-----------------------------------------Flashback--------------------------------------------

"Sakura! Don't cry. I will come back when I am older. I promise I will find you. I will never ever forget your smiling face…" An 11 year old boy with dark spiky hair said.

"Hiei, you can't leave me… Who's going to cheer me up when I'm upset…? Who's gonna play with me…?" An 11 year old Sakura said in tears. Her green eyes were filled with tears. The tears just kept pouring down endlessly.

Hiei hugged her. "Don't cry. I promise you I'll be back. You don't look pretty when you cry. You know I won't leave you on purpose. Tomoyo is there. I will miss both of you." He said hugging her tightly.

"I hope you do come back. I promise you I won't cry anymore. I will always smile for you and when you come back, you will be with me forever…Promise?" Sakura tried to smile but all she could manage was a weak, small smile.

"I promise. I have to go now, Sakura… I will be back one day, to be with you forever… Until then, Sakura. I will never ever forget you." He hugged her one last time before vanishing through the crowd in the small airport.

"I promise, Sakura, we will be again someday. We will meet again and I will never leave you again…" Hiei said to himself when he left.

"Come Sakura, it's time for us to leave. Hiei is gone and he promised that he will be back one day." Sakura's father said quietly.

Sakura stared in front of her. "Don't you know that I love you, Hiei? Please come back." Sakura cried one last time before she left.

---------------------------------------Flashback ended--------------------------------------

I sighed. "It's been 6 years already, Hiei. Where are you? You promised." I said softly.

"SAKURA KINOMOTO!!! Did you do it? Sakura, what are you doing?" Tomoyo screeched at her.

"I tried you know. It wasn't that easy to walk up to him and tell him straight away. Anyway, I'm looking at our picture with Hiei when we were kids. Why isn't he here? He should be with us. I just can't do this anymore, Tomoyo. I give up." I sighed and stretched myself on the bed.

"I know it's hard for you to accept that he is gone and I know that you still love him. It's time for you to move on. You can still love Hiei and Syoaran at the same time. I'm sure Hiei wants both of us to be happy." Tomoyo said softly to me.

"Yes, I'm sure he would. We've tried everything… I don't think we can do this. Syaoran won't go for my nerdy type." I sighed deeply this time.

"Not yet. How about a makeover Sakura? Please… If this doesn't work, you can change back to whoever you are right now. I promise. Just please try this for me." Tomoyo got down to her knees and begged me.

After a long time of thinking, I finally decided. "Fine, I will do it. We have the whole day to do it. Where do you want to do it?" I asked miserably.

"You will? Thank you Sakura for doing this! You will never regret this, I promise.

"I hope I won't." I muttered it softly under my breath.

"What did you say???Anyway, meet me at Eriol's house at 6 this evening. Don't be late. I will bring all my things. Oh, Sakura! I'm so excited. See ya later, Sakura." Tomoyo shrilled.

Normal POV

5:59 in the evening at Eriol's house

"I'm here!!! Tomoyo!" Sakura screamed.

"I said 6. You're 1 minute early. I'm up here. Just walk up the stairs and turn to the right. Eriol's room is the first." Tomoyo shouted in return.

"I made it. Tomoyo, don't you think all that is too much." Sakura said scanning the room. Make-ups, dresses, skirts and blouses were scattered all over the floor. Eriol is gonna be damn pissed off…. Sakura thought.

"Let's start. Oh, Honey! You're right on time to help us. You can help us with Sakura…" Tomoyo said while hugging the surprised Eriol.

"What the hell is going on here? I need questions!!! I mean answers not questions. What are all these stuff lying all around???" Eriol said looking very, very confused.

"Sakura has finally decided to change. She met someone other than Hiei that is. She fell in love with him at first sight. The best thing is that he is in our school." Tomoyo said happily for her friend.

"Great! You're finally in love. So who's the lucky person? Do I know him? Will I get to meet him tomorrow?" He asked happily.

"Well, that's the problem, Eriol. You guys are related and you are really close. If you find out who that person is, you'll kill us and you don't want anyone to couple with him." Tomoyo said softly.

"You're in love with a bastard of my cousin!!! Syaoran Li??? You can't like him Sakura. He will break your heart. I know him very well. You are no match against him" Eriol said angrily.

"I knew this would have you made you upset and angry. That's why Tomoyo and I wanted to keep this a secret. Eriol, I know you are not that mean to make me find another person to fall in love with. You would never do that. Right?" Sakura said softly with a small smile on her face.

"Fine, I will help you. I will give you and him one bloody chance. If he breaks your heart, I will make sure he wishes that he was never been born." Eriol said.

"I knew you had a heart honey!! Let's get to work. Let's start with your glasses. From this day onwards you will only wear contact lenses." Tomoyo said. Eriol grinned at her.

1 hour and 30 minutes after that (6: 45 pm)

"That's it. We're done, Sakura. You can look at yourself at the mirror now…" Tomoyo said unable to keep herself from staring at her masterpiece.

"Oh my God!!! Tomoyo! Eriol! What did you do to me? I look… I look… I…"Sakura stuttered.

"Beautiful… harming…Unusual…Haha…. Sakura you look wonderful…" Eriol said finishing her sentence.

"It's so late…. I have to go home now… Thanks you guys. I guess I'll see you tomorrow. Everyone will be shocked to see me. Even Touya and dad are going to be shocked." Sakura said while hugging them both.

"Bye Sakura…" Tomoyo and Eriol said while sending her out.

"I think we both need a rest tomorrow on our excellent work. I'll take you shopping ok. I'm sure Sakura will be able to manage on her own." Eriol said to Tomoyo.

"Yeah… Thanks… I gotta go now, honey bye…" Tomoyo ran off saying.

Sakura's POV

"I can't wait for tomorrow… Hi Dad! Touya! I'm going to bed now…" I went away smiling, feeling satisfied that even my dad and brother were still staring at 'the new me'.

"What did she do to herself?" I heard Touya, my big brother ask my dad.

"She has finally decided to change after you know who left. I'm glad she's finally moving on." My dad said. He smiled at me and wished me good night.

I went upstairs and got my clothes ready for tomorrow. I felt very nervous." This is it Sakura… You can do this... It's just... Forget it. Tomoyo and Eriol will help me tomorrow. I'm sure. They'll never abandon me at a time like this." I said to myself and went to bed.
