My sisters name was Adrianna. Her life was a blur ( she says very often) and reminds me of freedom meets intelligence meets sexy. She graduated from Yale( sleeping with the top 20 guys there), moved to Italy, got discovered by Balmain and has every since been living the jet set life of an 'inspirational' model.
"What are you thinking about?" She asked, as she ordered us daiquiris.
"I was wondering if they're were any modeling jobs open" i asked. I definitely was not as stunning as my sister but I hope my sisters name would get me out there.
"For your beautiful face, of course. I'll call my manager tomorrow." Yessssss! Plan Popularity was in motion!!
"Thank you sweetcheeks" I said giving her a peck on her left cheek.
"No problem" We partied a bit here and there, drinking and taking shots, my sister getting rowdy with the boys but all in all it was a fun night.
My sister and I set out in different directions and I headed back to the hotel.
When I got into our room, it was pitch black so I guessed that Nathaniel toke his leave to a club so I clumsly walked around the room. I threw my bag on the floor, shoes on the couch and coat on the chair. I flopped into bed and felt something solid.
"Owww" I muttered.
"Do you mind?" Nathaniel said, half sleeping but obvouisly woken up by my drunk walking.
"Why are so rude?" I said being veeryyy drunk.
"You make it very hard not to be" he said pushing me of himself.
"I have only been nice and you act like a big pile of something that came out of dogs butt" I whispered.
"Go to sleep"
"No"
"Sleep"
"No"
"Fine, stay up" I pulled myself under the covers and slowly fell into a slumber. I know I was supposed to stay up to prove a point but I was just soooo drunk.
When I woke up, I saw Nathaniel packing his gucci bags and trying to do it as loud as possible.
"Good, your finally awake. I see partying kept you up all night"
"I had fun, thanks for asking" I commented.
"Do you ever think of consequences?" He asked, being very angry. I just ignored him and got up to take a shower. I changed into my new clothes and packed my stuff. When I got back inside the main bedroom, he was putting his shoes on.
"Look I'm sorry for going out last night but I dont even get why your mad?" I said, realizing that I was wrong last night.
"Were supposed to be getting engaged! What if something happened to you?" He said, furiously.
"Oh come on." I said rolling my eyes.
"Im heading back to New York. Can we meet up tomorrow to discuss some plans?" He asked while scrolling through his phone.
"Sure, tomarrow."
"My place at 6"
"Ok bye" I said as he walked out of the hotel room. I was wearing casual jeans and a button up shirt to the airport( since it was only like a 2 hour flight). Since Nathaniel already left, I guessed I wasn't going on the private jet( sigh) so I just got a first class ticket back to New York and started planning my day.
Samantha had texted me back and we were meeting for coffee and shopping today at 4. If I wanted to make it on time, I wouldn't even have time to change. I got a text;
'Hey!! Manager said that she wants shots of you and you'll be ready to go!'
It was my sister and I literally eeked loudly on the plane. Yess yay happy dance whoohoo
I replied back
'Omg thanks hun your the best! Where should I go?'
When she texted me back she told me to go to her managers office tomorrow at 12. I replied of course and set an appointment on my phone for tomorrow.
When the plane landed, I got off as fast as possible. I was walking out the airport and then I stopped short because I saw myself, on a magazine, in a newsstand and I died. On the front cover it said;
"Power couple Sophia and Nathaniel: Is it love or business?"
On the cover was us last night at the gala. I bought two copies and started reading it in the taxi.
"Sophia and Nathaniel are set to marry in less than a month, yet this is the second tim we've seen them together. "They are very private. I have not even met him and I'm her best friend" says Clara Bridgefield, a close friend of Sophia's whose a model. The couple has posted intimate pictures on Instagram and of each other. "I'm so proud of her to find the man that she belongs with" quoted from Sophia's mother. Jaqueline, Nathaniels sister, was in a relationship which she ended up ending and admitting was fake. The engagement has only been 3 months and the couple has set no final reservations for the wedding. Rumors of Sophia going into modeling started sprouting last night because she was seen with Adriana, her sister who has worked for Balmain, Chanel and Ralph Lauren. The couple has let out some details about the wedding but we'll have to see whether its for the lust or the dollar signs."
After finishing the article, I was feeling many things. First was excitement, then a little embarrassment that we weren't acting well enough, then guilty and finally self confident. Somebody had noticed me last night and felt I was good enough to write about.
I sent a picture of the article to Nathaniel. I know he read it but I think he was still a little bit aggrivated with me. I got to my apartment and put my bags down and left to go out with Samantha.
We were meeting up in Starbucks on the upper east side. Samantha was really nice the first time I met her but I hoped it wouldn't be awkward. I pulled up and parked my car right near Starbucks. I saw her waiting outside and went over to hug her.
"Hey Samantha"
"Hey girl" Samantha was very much European, with her slim body and exotic mix of colors. Her eyes were a dark, rich brown and her hair was a light blonde. Her skin was very pale and she was quite the trendsetter.
We went inside and sat down at a secluded booth and began chatting like crazy.
"So your engaged?" She said curiously.
"Yeah, Nathaniels great" I lied and I felt so guilty.
"I've heard of him. I thought he was like a billionaire playboy"
"He was. We fell in love so quickly that it began hard to change his appearance"
"Yeah it is! When I got married to John, it was literally like the worst time ever because everyone that I was like sleazy and now I became a model" she said, kind of bragging.
"Thats awesome but I just don't understand how you dealt with all the comments!" It was so awkward and fake I literally died inside. She was really nice but had a very high ego.
"Well to be honest, my marriage with John is fake. All publicity." she said shrugging her shoulders " We fell in love but if we were dating we would have broken up a long time ago"
"Really? Why?" I asked. She was obviously calming down and being honest with me. I like that in a friend but I knew I wasn't being honest. I don't want to slip and have the whole thing explode in my face.
The conversation went on for another hour and we walked around Madison Avenue. At around 7 we went our separate ways. I decided I would stop at Nathaniel's house first just to get my ring back. He had been mad I left it at his house so I knew I had to get it.
When I got to his apartment, I knocked on the door as usual. I heard the locks unlocking and saw Nathaniel's head peak out.
"Um hi" he said anxiously.
"Hey I just came to pick my ring up"
"Uh yeah I'll get it wait here"
And then I heard it. Literally the saddest words I've heard and I dont know why.
"Nate, come back to bed"
