A/N: Well, I wasn't lying! This will not happen again!!! Sorry, I was writing "Natsu x Gray" & "Truths and Lies". If you haven't read them yet please do. ^^"

Because I'm get tired with the prologues I'm going to make it as short as possible. IT ENDED UP VERY LONG!!

***** = meaning you can take a break/ end of one prologue.

Enjoy!^-^

3 DAY LATER

It's the day of the new CEO's welcome party and while the floor usually's still busy at 5, that day, it's deadly quiet. I begged Natsume to give me a light workload and I managed to get an extension from today's clients. It's fine going along with Hinata's plan but is this makeover gonna make for good revenge?

"Is that Yuki?" I looked up to see who's calling me and smile instantly. It's Momoka's Hayama's voice! Despite being from different department we're very close. She comes waving. Caught up in the moment I wave too. She gets a good look at me.

"Momoka, you look great!"
"Oh, thanks! You know I don't go to parties, right? This is actually a dress I bought for my friend's wedding."
"It looks so nice!"
"Yuki do you wanna ditch this party? I'm nervous and realising how long it's been since I talked to Yuki! I'm suddenly losing my interest in the new CEO. I mean, I heard he's handsome and I was excited to go but.."
"Haha, I love you Momoka."
"I'm serious! I psyched myself up to come, but I'd rather hang out."
"Thanks, Momoka. I have a bit of work to do, actually. But I'm headed to the party. I have a friend to brave it with right?" Momoka smiles at me.

I have everything planned out and arrived at the station where I was meant to meet everyone ahead of schedule. But even so, people are waiting for me. I hear a familiar voice from outside the turnstile. "Yuki~Hey! Over here!"
"Wakako! Sorry to ask you for a favour out of the blue like this!"
"What are you even talking about? I was so excited to hear from your sister! I wouldn't pass up the opportunity to style your makeup Yuki. I have wanted to do this for basically forever!"

3 days ago my sister called for emergency style from my little cousin Wakako who works as a stylist for L'Eclat. "Yuki you have so much potential!" My sister enlisted Wakako because she knew that hearing this familiar pep-talk would get me motivated.
"Ok. I have no idea what to do- so- I'm just going to leave it all up to you."
"Mission accepted! Let's get our prep work done and head out!"
"Um, prep-work?"
"Yeah, like picking out a dress!" I wasn't expecting this at all. Wakako ends up taking me to the L'Eclat's headquarters pressroom floor. Professional stylists buzz around bringing an array of colourful, sparkling accessories.

~Time skip~

"...Here I am." I take a deep breath, ready to enter the hotel lounge. Draped over my blue dress with a sparkling, silver heart necklace. I'm carrying an unobtrusive, glossy clutch bag and wearing, to tie the outfit together, a pair of (not glass but still stunning) white heels I borrowed from L'Eclat. In a way, I'm also wearing new hair and a new face thanks to Wakako! I feel like I'm being watched. I walk into the venue and the party's in a full swing. I'm trying to find my friends in a sea of Oz Magic employees. Everywhere I go, people's eyes follow. I want to run!

"Is, is that you Yuki?" She says, choking back her surprise. She was standing there, staring. "Momoka, what is it? Do I look alright?"
"Alright? No, you don't look alright, you look amazing!"
"Yeah? I feel like people are staring, though."
"Because they're all awe!"
"Don't be silly!"
"No, it's true. From the moment you walked in." (A/n: like Cinderella) "You seem slightly different from before. Yuki, your presence is so commanding."
"... Thanks, Momoka. Hey, sorry. I'm going to fix my makeup."
"Promise you'll come right back, ok?"
