2 years later
Well, the last time you heard from me I was a pretty pathetic person! Too proud to admit my flaws and too proud to say sorry! Now that I've moved on, I have become strong and more confident woman. I still live in the same apartment, all the others eventually moved out and got houses but me? I liked it here, so I stayed!
After Brandon moved out, I first burned all of his remaining things and turned his room into a nice big walk-in closet and renovated and re-decorated the whole place! It's more chic and Stella like now.
I know it's not a nice thing to do but I had too. When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade! I got Brandon's room and turned it into a walk-in closet.
Tonight I was going to Musa and Riven's engagement party? Who knew that Riven would pop the question? He proposed to her at my fashion show! Yes darling, I said MY fashion show. Your girl Stella Solaria has become a world famous fashion designer! I can design anything and I mean ANYTHING!
Anyways, It's a "white-party", which means that we all have to wear fricking white! I haven't worn white in like forever! So I have to go shop, get my hair done, nails done and make-up done. I have to deliver the girls clothes personally because I would rather not send my assistant to do this for me. Anyways I was so busy making all the girls clothes and Musa's dress took me forever to make, that I didn't even know what I would wear! I don't even have clothes for this party, so I'm pretty stressed.
I just finished dressing up! Today I was wearing my new long sleeved floral chiffon shirt along with my blue jeans and black boots. My hair has grown, it's waist long again! So now I can finally make very stylish ponytails without looking crazy! Anyways I didn't have time for that so I just put my hair up in a messy bun and I didn't have ANY make-up on. I then put on my long black coat and my sunglasses on before taking all the girls clothes with me.
I think it took me several of hours before finishing all the deliveries! Flora gave me a big hug and I had to help her choose accessories, Bloom thanked me for 30 minutes and then wanted me to help her find matching shoes, Tecna gave me a big hug and then asked me if Timmy's tie was a go or no go.
It was a no go, girls.
Layla wasn't home when I delivered the clothes, so I had to explain Nabu what was in the garment bag and trust me it took forever! And then lastly but least, I had to give Musa her clothes which ALSO took forever because I had give it to Riven and he had to hold a whole speech about how nervous he is and all that! I told him to go eat some ice scream and watch The Vampire Diaries.
That's what I do when I'm nervous!
It was now 3.00PM and I STILL didn't have anything to wear! I've been to ALL the malls in town and I couldn't find A THING! So I drove back home and to make myself some clothes because this shopping spree practically hopeless!
I searched my whole wardrobe through and found some new white high-waisted pants and a white chiffon tank top. I was just looking for something, to make my look extraordinary. Then it hit me! Last month I made a long white blazer! I quickly put everything on and then moved on to styling my hair and make-up. I had very light make-up on and some nude lipstick, as for my hair I styled it in a braided updo and then fixed my bangs. I put on my white Louboutin's heels and then finish my look of with my medium sized round Swarovski diamond earrings. I quickly looked at myself in the mirror and then looked at my phone and saw that I had a missed call from Nabu. As I went out of my apartment and into the elevator I called Nabu and he picked up right away!
"Stellaaaaa!" yelled Nabu into the phone
"Oh god Nabu? What did you do now!" I said
"How do you know I did something?" said Nabu
"You're Nabu" I said as I got out of the elevator
"It's nothing serious" said Nabu
"Are you sure? Because the time you lost a very drunk Riven in Las Vegas, you called me and said it was nothing serious" I said
"You girls exaggerate too much!" said Nabu
"You guys ended up in jail for a night? I had to bail you out" I said
"Okay, I see the problem" said Nabu
"Good, now tell me what's wrong" I said
"I lost" said Nabu
"Lost what?" I said as I got out of the building and walked towards my car
"FOUND IT!" Nabu yelled into the phone
"What did you find!" I said as I got into my car and fastened my seatbelt
"I can't tell you now" said Nabu as he laughed
"Nabu!" I said
"You'll tell Layla!" said Nabu
"No I won't!" I said
"Bye Stell bell" said Nabu as he laughed and then hung up on me
I put my phone in my pocket and then drove away to the banquet hall where the party was being held.
After a long drive I finally reached my destination, parked the car and got out. I went into the party! And guess what! ALL EYES ON ME! Just because I'm 10 minutes late..
Gosh aren't people being late all the time nowadays? Why are they looking at me, as if I've committed a crime.
As all eyes were on me, I carefully yet confidently walked around. I was looking for the table the girls sat at..
Oh lord, there is a hundred people here! And everybody are walking around.. How am I supposed to find them.
As I was looking for the girls I suddenly bumped into some guy who's back was turned to me and we both felt onto the ground. He fell forward and I landed on his back, THIS IS SO EMBARRASING!
I'm lying on top of a complete stranger! Thank god, that he can't see my very red face now...
"I AM SOO SORRY SIR!" I said
"No problem " said the guy
My eyes widened as I recognized that voice
"Brandon?" I said
"Stella" said Brandon as he turned his head to me
"OH MY GOOD! YOU'RE STELLA SOLARIA!" said a girl who came up to us
She had long light brown hair, she was tanned and very slim! She wore a very familiar white skater-dress and some killer sandals and she had the most amazing green eyes ever! This girl was stunning.
"Who is that" I said as I pointed at the girl
"That's Courtney" said Brandon
"Hi Courtney" I said while waving awkwardly at her
"Oh my god! THE FAMOUS STELLA SOLARIA IS LYING ON TOP OF MY BOYFRIEND!" said Courtney and squealed out of joy
This girl is fangirling because a famous FEMALE person is lying on top of her boyfriend? Is she serious? Wait did she just say boyfriend?!
"Wait why is Stella Solaria on top of my boyfriend?" said Courtney
Brandon and I both got up and stared meanly at each other for a moment.
"We go waaaay back" I said as I smiled through clenched teeth
"Yes we do" said Brandon
"Wait? You know Stella Solaria!" said Courtney
"Yes babe" said Brandon as he held her hand
"Oh my god! I'm your biggest fan! I'm actually wearing this dress that's made by you!" said Courtney
"You're too sweet, thank you darling!" I said as I faked a smile
"I just love your work!" said Courtney
"Well thank you once again! It's New York fashion week next week? How come you drop by my office and watch all my designs and give me some feedback tomorrow?" I said with a big smile
As if she want's to go with me! I just asked to be nice.
"I'd love to come by tomorrow!" said Courtney
"You do?" said Brandon and I with wide eyes
"Yes of course" said Courtney
"Oh! Then if you don't have plans, you could come see the show next week!" I said awkwardly
"Yes! You're so amaziiing!" said Courtney as she hugged me
"Brandon you're such a JERK for not telling me that you know Stella Solaria!" said Courtney
"I guess I am" said Brandon while looking away
"Oh my, I gotta go tell Stacy and Tracy! They're going to be so jealous when they hear this" said Courtney as she walked away
"Jerk" I said as I walked pass Brandon
"Witch" snapped Brandon after me
I rolled my eyes and then Nabu found me after a while!
"Stell bell!" yelled Nabu as he hugged me
"I really don't like you today!" I said
"Why?" said Nabu
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME BRANDON WAS COMING TONIGHT!" I said as I hit him hard
"Excuse me! But he's one of Riven's best friend? Did you seriously think that he wouldn't show up" said Nabu
Suddenly Musa and Riven came up to us.
"Oh Musa! You look gorgeous in this dress!" I said as I hugged her and changed the subject
"Of course I do, you made it!" said Musa while laughing
"So it's official, you guys are tying the knot" said Nabu
"Indeed" said Riven as he pulled Musa closer
"This is too cute, I gotta take a picture" I said as I took my phone out of my pocket and took a pic of the lovely couple
"Where's the others" said Nabu
"You should know" I said
"I just arrived!" said Nabu
"They're sitting over there" said Riven as he pointed
"Okay but we're heading over there then" I said as I grabbed Nabu
"Yeah, we have to go around to our guest" said Musa
"See you later!" I said as I dragged Nabu with me to the others
We went over to the table and talked a bit with girls and guys! We then ate some pretty delicious food, got some great red wine and then I decided to go home a bit early because I really needed to take a LONG hot shower and then go to bed. This day has been weird, I met Brandon and his naive girlfriend..
I can't believe that I asked if she would come by tomorrow! What was I thinking?
The next morning
At the office I was getting ready for Courtney's visit, so I had to impress this chick even though she's already more than impressed! Cole my lovely assistant made everything ready and he knows the plan. Cole Knightly is my loyal and amazing assistant, gorgeous guy with jet black hair, tanned skin color, stylish, very handsome and he has the most amazing green eyes.
"Okay Cole, this girl is very naive and she fangirls a lot" I said
"Really! I love fangirls, they're so funny" said Cole
"Well this one is pretty and weird" I said
"I like that combination" said Cole
"She's taken babe" I said
"Damn" cursed Cole
"C what's the plan" I said
"I refer to you as " said Cole
"Yes, I'm sorry for making you call me " I said as I hugged him
"It's okay Stella! You're giving me a raise though" said Cole while laughing
"Just remember that part and we'll be good! And you'll get that raise Cole!" I said
"Good!" said Cole as he went out of my office
As I was drawing some new designs for my summer collection, Cole returned with a overly excited Courtney
"Hi!" said Courtney as she hugged me
"Hi darling, have a seat! Cole bring me us some latte's and make mine decaf" I said as I offered Courtney a seat
"I would like decaf too" said Courtney
"Then bring us two decaf latte's" I said with a smile
"Yes " said Cole as he went out of the office
We both sat down and looked at all the drawings I had made
"Oh this would be gorgeous in orange" said Courtney as she held a drawing up
"You think? Orange is such a dangerous color" I said with a half smirk
"I really think that only YOU can bring orange back" said Courtney
"You're probably right, orange is more suitable for summer" I said
"Which color did you have in mind?" said Courtney
"I was thinking coral" I said
"That's such a pretty color!" said Courtney
"Problem is that coral is so last year" I said as I sighed
"It must be hard working as a fashion designer! You have to draw, design, make new trends, think of colors and so on!" said Courtney while drinking her latte
"It is darling! In this industry you make it or you break it" I said
"I mean being a model, I have to think of who I would like to present" said Courtney
"So you're a model" I said as I raised a brow
He got himself a model, tsk...
"Yes, I've been in this industry for years" said Courtney
"Oh who have you worked with so far" I asked
"Victoria's secret" answered Courtney with a smile
HE'S DATING A FREAKING VICTORIA'S SECRET MODEL WHILE I'M STILL BEING SINGLE! DAMN
"Oh my god, I collaborated with them last year" I said
"Yes! I know, I insisted on wearing your designs on the runway" said Courtney
"Awesome" I said with a smile
Hours have past by and me and Courtney are finally talking about Brandon!
"So Brandon is a great guy huh?" I said
"Yes, he's awesome honestly" said Courtney
"How did you guys meet? I love to hear how couples met each other, there is always a sweet story behind every couple" I said with a smile
That's the biggest lie I've told! As if I'm interested in that, I just want to know how a complete fool like Brandon found a Victoria's secret model.
"It's actually a very cute story! We met at the park! I was walking with my chihuahua Chuchi and he was walking in our direction. Suddenly Chuchi runs up to him and tackles him and makes him drop his coffee!" said Courtney
"Chuchi must have known what a jerk he really is" I mumbled quietly
"Did you say anything?" said Courtney with a smile
"No, go on darling" I said
"Anyways! I ran over to Brandon and helped him up and quickly apologized for my dog's behavior! And then I offered to buy him a new coffee" said Courtney
"And" I said
"And then we went into the coffee shop, sat down, drank out coffee's and afterwards exchanged numbers" said Courtney with a smile
"Aaaw!" I said
"And I'm so happy that I met him" said Courtney
"So how long have you been together?" I said
"This Friday, is actually our 5 month anniversary" said Courtney
" 5 MONTHS!" I said
"Yes! It's so amazing" said Courtney
"It is" I said
"So how do you know Brandon" said Courtney with a smile
"We met back in college" I said
"I guess you guys have lots of fun memories together then!" Courtney
"More than you can imagine" I said as I went back to my drawings
If only this girl knew that I lived with her boyfriend for a year and that we both had feelings for each other at that time..
