I sighed as Miwako and the stylist peered around the million of racks that were filled with evening gowns. I was getting prepped up for the night's summer gala; I looked around the shop, it was filled with extravagant costumes and some were so alarming that I wondered if it was even wearable. I did not want to go to this gala. It was a waste of time; I would rather spend the night with Yuuki and watch cartoons until bedtime. I looked at Miwako, she looked so happy among the rows of clothing. She glanced my way and smiled, skipping over to my seat she stared at my face. Feeling conscious of myself, I blushed a light pink and was about to tell her to stop staring when Seiji-san appeared at the doorway.

"Ladies, how are you two this evening? Yukari, beautiful as ever, but what's wrong? You look… Grumpy?"

"Ah, Seiji-san~ Help Caroline! She's been in a bad mood since we came to the shop. Do you have any recommendations for her? I can't find anything that she'll like. She's so picky!"

I shot her a glance, which she promptly ignored. Looking around, Miwako held up a hair ornament shaped into a butterfly resting on a pearly white gardenia flower.

"I like this, don't you Caroline? You have something like this back at home, right? I think this will look lovely on you!"

"It's beautiful… ", I replied softly.

"I have the perfect dress for that. I'm starting to imagine the perfect outfit for you, Yukari. I'll be right back"

Seiji strolled out of the room with Miwako and me staring after him. I looked up at Miwako who smiled encouragingly. I touched the ornament, it really was beautiful. I never saw anything like it. The details of the accessory were so unique; it was sturdy, yet looked so delicate. Seiji returned with a gorgeous, long-sleeved ivory and gold accent gown made entirely of silk, satin, and lace. The center piece of the gown was a fresh white gardenia flower. I gasped. It was so beautiful. Miwako gave a silent scream and was bouncing on her feet.

"Oh my god! Seiji-san! You found the PERFECT dress! She'll look gorgeous in that! Who's the designer?"

"It's George's most prized design; he made the dress less than a week ago, along with that ornament. He told me that it was made specifically for someone in mind. I guess I don't need to look any farther. She's right here. Yukari sit here, we need to start on your makeup and hair"

I gaped at him. It was George's design? It was so different than the designs that I've seen from him. I touched the dress, and looked at the flowers, my favorite. I turned and sat down on the seat that Seiji provided. The whole time he and his team worked on me, I kept glancing at the dress. I couldn't stop looking at it. It felt like that the dress was made specifically for me; which was, of course, ridiculous. I swallowed the sigh that was forming. This was not the time to be thinking about George. I looked at the mirror and let out another gasp. Seiji had put my hair up and had entwined flowers with my hair, it was gorgeous. He again chose a natural look, but with a more dramatic eye makeup. I looked back at Seiji and thanked him. He really was a genius.

It was time to attend the gala. I was a nervous wreck inside the car; I only had five minutes to be ready. I was scared that I might meet George; I didn't know if he was going to bring Kaori with him. The thought made my knees buckle. This didn't make sense, I didn't do anything wrong, I just talked to him. I didn't understand why I was acting like this- like I was doing something that I wasn't supposed to do. I took a deep breath before getting out of the car. I mustered up a dazzling smile and immediately transitioned into the façade of confidence that I always put up before the paparazzi and fans.

George's POV

I walked into the event hoping to see Yukari already there. She wasn't. I sighed as I massaged my neck. Seiji had called me, informing that Yukari had worn the dress that I had made especially for her to wear to this event. I anxiously paced around, hoping that she'll show up soon. I had so much to say to her, in so little time. I started to panic as the place started to become packed, I swept my gaze around the room and all I saw was Isabella. Impatiently, I made my way to the entrance when people started to whisper excitedly- Yukari had arrived. I looked up just in time to see her make her grand entrance to the party. She looked stunningly beautiful in it, just as I imagined. I looked at her hair, sure enough, the ornament was placed delicately on top of her head. She looked like a goddess. She turned her head and made eye contact with me; as soon as she saw me, she blushed and looked away. My feet itched to go near her, but I knew that I should keep my distance, people were bound to spread rumors about us and I did not want her to be put in another difficult position because of me. With another sigh, I walked back to my table while keeping an eye on Yukari. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Isabella sauntering over to Yukari, my heart raced. What was that idiot thinking? I was about to get up when Miwako appeared out of nowhere.

"George! The dress, that dress was for Caroline, wasn't it? It's so beautiful!"

"Miwako, I-"

"George, I was ordered by Isabella to keep you from going over there. So, you're my hostage and I'm your warden! Now, sit!"

I looked at her, bewildered and astounded by her remarks. How had she known? Was it obvious that the dress was for Yukari? I coughed and looked back to where Isabella and Yukari were sitting at. I was so curious as to what Isabella was telling her. Isabella gave me a sly wink before turning back to Yukari. I was going to KILL her… I turned around, dejected. I was going to have to wait to talk to Yukari.

Yukari's POV

Isabella sauntered over. It had been awhile since I last saw her and I was grateful that it was Isabella who came instead of Kaori. She grabbed my hand as she led me to one of the tables, away from the crowd.

"Yukari! How have you been? We haven't seen each other since inside the elevator. You look great by the way. I knew it'll look spectacular on you"

"I've been great thanks, how about you? I need to get caught up on your news. Thank you… I heard that George designed and made it himself, is that true?"

"Of course it's true! He only made one; it's especially for you. There's not much to my story, I just traveled to Paris with George and honed my skills with him. We're co-owners of Love Light now. Let's see, what else… Oh yes. I confessed to him you know, he completely rejected me. Which, wasn't much of a surprise, I knew he was still in love with you-still is by the way, though he would never admit it. Kaori also confessed to him, he rejected her also, but she got him to play along with that disgusting façade of dating. Nasty girl. I never did like her. Oh, what's wrong Yukari?"

"I… Why are you telling me all this? About…"

"Haha, Yukari, you asked me about my life, I told you about it. But, I also thought that you should know… He's been in love with you all these years. He has never slept with another girl since you both broke up; he's been focusing only on designing and achieving name recognition world-wide, hoping that you'll hear about him one day. So, you see, there's nothing to worry about. You're not offending anyone, especially Kaori. Now, tell me. Did you know you were pregnant with his child before you both broke up?"

"No… I didn't. I found out right after you both left. Isabella, I'm scared. What if George tries to take Yuuki away from me? I can't… I've only been living because of Yuuki; if I don't have him… I don't know what I'll do… I can't…"

"Shh, Yukari, don't you worry. He'll never do something like that, you know that. If he does attempt to do that, I'll do anything in my power to stop it. I promise. Don't you cry now, I'm sure it took Seiji a long time to make you this gorgeous, don't want to ruin it before you take a ton of pictures now, do you? Come on, let's party!"

She led me down the dance floor. It was quite an experience. My mind wandered to what she had revealed to me. George was in love with me. He was always in love with me. My heart ached at the thought, it pained me so much. I tried so hard to forget him, while he tried to not forget me. What the heck was this? I was so confused and upset. I left the party early so that I could be with Yuuki. I missed him so much. My heart ached again when I saw how closely Yuuki resembled his father. It hurt too much. I looked out the window and thought…

I don't want to lose him….
