Disclaimer: MKR is a rightful property of CLAMP and Kodansha and various other companies, I don't own them, the song is by Nina (You might not know her) and I also don't own it. The idea for the fic was also taken from the music video of Foolish Heart... Yes, yes I know, I shouldn't have but I couldn't help it~!! It's just too sweet; anyways of course it showcases my favorite pairings, Fuu/Ferio of course, and maybe some hints of Ascot/Umi, and some Hikaru/Lantis.

Author's Note: I think the lyrics are just right for this specific ficcie, hope you enjoy it. This is to make up for not updating lately my fic 'Things Are Not As They Seem' I'm really having a horrible writer's block and I'm currently preoccupied with my Yami no Matsuei fic and an upcoming HxH fic. I updated as fast as I can. This goes to those who reviewed the last chapter.

Fuu nervously opened the door to her flower shop. Her breathing was hard, and she was sweating terribly, her hands shaky and her knees were weak, next to her was an overly ecstatic Umi.

"Come on Fuu-chan~~!!"

Umi pulled her childhood best friend inside her own flower shop, a huge grin plastered on her face.

Umi in a casual attire of a short, sky blue skirt, that ended somewhere above her upper knees, and a short sleeved white shirt with a high Mandarin collar. Her hair was tied into two braids up her front by means of white cords; she was wearing a pair of sandals with pencil thing heels, the straps in a delicate criss-cross manner around her ankles.

She was also wearing her diamond and sapphire butterfly pendant attached around her neck by means of a fine platinum chain. From her left wrist was a silver plated watch and matching white and blue Swarovski bracelets.

"Demo, Umi-chan... What if, he... he doesn't like it...?"

Umi's smile faltered and looked at her best friend. Stubbornly positioning her hands at her hips she gave Fuu a stern look. "You do love him don't you?"

Fuu took a sharp intake of breath, her cheeks flushed, and her pulse quickening. It was always the same reaction whenever 'he' was discussed. "I- I really don't know I just met him this Monday and-"

"-FUU~~! Haven't you ever heard of something called 'love at first sight'~?!" Umi by now had folded her arms across her chest a disapproving frown upon her pretty features. Fuu only sighed.

'I might as well do it. Besides Umi-chan is only trying to help me... Besides I really would want to do this...'

Fuu turned brighter at the thought.

"So are you gonna do it?"

Clutching both her warm red cheeks, Fuu nodded albeit reluctantly.

"YOSHA~~! Okay then take off your coat~!!" Fuu could only sigh. How could she have forgot? Umi was a motivated matchmaker who would do EVERYTHING just to find her a boyfriend. Now she was silently praying that Hikaru was the one who found out instead, since she guessed that Hikaru would just give her some piece of advice and not push her to do things.

Sighing, she took off the forest green coat she was wearing. When the revelation had hit Umi she had questioned Fuu at ONCE who the guy was. After hearing the whole story Umi had told her repeatedly to impress him. After some more coaxing she had agreed Now she was in her flower shop taking off her long-sleeved coat which by the way was not an adequate piece of clothing to wear during mid summer.

Umi squealed when Fuu had taken off her coat to reveal what she was wearing inside. It was a beautiful halter type dress the same color of her eyes (have I mentioned that Umi had convinced her to PERMANENTLY wear contacts instead of her glasses), which were emerald green. It ended at somewhere above her knees the hem was lavishly decorated with sparkling Rhine stones.

A pair of pearly white sandals (with pencil-thin heels) decorated with light green stones upon her feet. Her shoulder-length golden brown hair, which looked especially fine and wispy today, was held in place by two clips, which were studded with green and white Rhine stones.

From her neck hung her crystal pendant, and a similar pair of silver, emerald, and diamond bracelets on both her wrists. Her eyes faintly tinted with light green and white eye shadow, while her lips were colored a tinge of pink.

Umi became a starry-eyed chibi ogling Fuu. "You know if you always dress like that, men would worship the very ground you step on~~!"

Fuu's cheeks turned brighter if that was by any chance possible. "Okay Fuu- chan just knock him dead, and I'll check up on you once in a while~~!! Oh, and Fuu-chan can I please some order some blue and white Camellias..." It was now Umi's turn to blush.

Fuu blinked once, twice, and then it hit her. A knowing smile formed upon her lips. "For Ascot-kun, Umi-chan?"

Umi stubbornly folded her arms across her chest, "O-of course NOT~~! The chrysanthemums I ordered were dying so I thought I might replace them or something... so I..."

Fuu giggled, "Don't worry no need to tell me, I know you like him."

Fuu sighed checking the wall clock in her shop for practically the umpteenth time for the last minute. It was already closing time and the person she had anticipating for hadn't arrived yet.

She had received numerous compliments from her costumers this morning but no matter how much they have smiled widely at her it didn't make her feel contended. Sure she was happy, but something was missing.

Sighing again, she decided it might as well be best if she closed already.

It was too bad really... He didn't show up
