Summary: living the fast life isn't what it's all cracked up to be with constant altercations. What could possibly make it better?
Kim walked into the unfamiliar hotel suite that was her new home; the suite was a grand and luxurious. The floor was all marble with a big fancy decorative rug in the middle. The furniture had graceful designs and beautiful painting on the wall. It also had a grand piano that looked vintage.
Setting her bags down on marble floor, she looked around; she went up the grand stairs and found a door with the word 'Kimberly' in cursive on it. She knew it was her new room; I mean who else name was Kim. She went inside and gasped. It was beautiful.
The room was huge; it was painted light a pretty cream color with beautiful flower design on the wall. The bed was queen size with a canopy hanging over it. The sheets were an elegant lace designs. The furniture was flower design which also had a dainty look. Also for Kim's entertainment courtesy of William, there was 59 inch flat screen TV hanging on the wall. Looking to her right she saw closed doors with curtains over it leading to the balcony.
Kim walked to the balcony opening up the doors as the summer breeze blow her hair back a bit. Kim loved to look into the night sky; she believed it told a thousand stories with every star that decorated it.
Kim wasn't too happy to leave her boarding school in England. That would meant going back to see her mom, or at least get phone calls from her. Her mom was never around; she was always off in different cities all over the world. Her and William, apparently he is her new step- father. Enhance the word new; her mother has been married over 5 times. This only means more moving and more changes. Change was her forever enemy; it pushed her back, made her frown, and showed up quite often. Now looking into the distance she saw an amazing view of the Eiffel Tower.
'Well Mom at least you picked a city I always wanted to go to' she sighed turning back into her room, closing back the doors and going back down stairs. Passing through the large dining room she found an envelope, on the front was her name in big fancy cursive. She grabbed the letter, opening it and began to read it.
Dear Kimberly,
I know I'm not there to see you getting back from boarding school, when summer just started. You know duty calls, I had to go to Malian and William had to go Australia. I haven't told you about William and I getting married, it was last minute. We were going to pull you out from school for the wedding, but your education is more important. If you're reading this note then that means George had showed you the new suite we will be living in. I hope you found your room ok, and I would be back in no time. Also there is a ball going on the grand ballroom. You must go, I have your dress picked out it's in your closet. Make sure you put on the entire ensemble on. Its starts at 8 so don't be late. I will call you first thing in the morning. Mommy loves you!
Sincerely mom
Kim crumpled the letter and through it across the room into the trash can. Sure this was nothing new, her mom always left somewhere leaving Kim in a brand new place to figure it out herself. That doesn't mean that it didn't hurt, she was always alone. No one to talk to, to listen to her problems, she hated the feeling of loneliness. Kim looked at her watch and it was already 6:30. She figured she should get dressed before she was late and her mom's finds out.
Walking back up the stairs straight into her room she opened her walking closet to see a gorgeous white Cinderella ballroom dress on the manikin. The dress was strapless; the draped criss-cross bodice features a romantic sweetheart neckline accented with sparkling crystal beading and rhinestones. The bottom covered the feet with a classic ball gown of tulle and glitter net over taffeta. Silver closed toe pumps sat upon a pillow like royalty, but what really caught Kim's eye was the diamond incrusted tiara that sat in box filled with blue pillows cushions in it.
Kim quickly drew her bath and washed her hair. Kim found her new makeup her mom bought her and applied some. She used mascara making her lashes fuller, a bit of eye shadow with a bit of glitter to make it shimmer. She made gentle strokes of the blush on her cheeks, she also but on a natural shade of pink lip gloss. Kim curled her hair and put it into an elegant bun with her bangs to the side and a few strands of hair fell out the bun framing her flawless face.
Kim hurried to but the dress on and shoes, she straightened it out and reached into the box which led the tiara. She cautiously put it on her head, which was a perfect fit. Kim smiled into the mirror as she over looked herself. If it was one thing her mother knew how to pick a dress.
Looking at the time realizing she was almost late she rushed down the stairs grabbed her phone and left the suite. Now down in the lobby on her way to the ballroom she sees George talking to a couple who was dressed for a black and white tie event. She came closer to him as the couple said their goodbyes and walked to the ballroom.
Kim walked up to George, who was her mom's assistant and was giving the job of making sure Kim was in no trouble and went the ball for that day.
"Hello George" she said as she made it to him.
"I'm sorry do I know you?" he said with a confuse expression.
"It's me Kim, how could you not know me" Kim took a step forward as so he take a good look at her face.
"Wow Kim! You look beautiful I didn't recognize you, your mother is one heck of a dresser!" he examined taking her all in.
"Thanks George and yes she is" she said polity and smiled at his compliment.
"So you should head to the ballroom I'll meet you in there as soon as I finish greeting the guest your mother invited" Kim nodded and headed down the hall to the ballroom.
The ballroom was massive. It was filled with people, talking dancing and eating. The music slowed down into a dance song as everyone stopped what they were doing to find a partner.
This was one of the reason Kim hated change; she didn't know any of these people. She was alone to own mother's event. She walked over to a waiter who was passing out finger food; she took one and was about to walk to table and mope to herself but a tap on her shoulder made her halt.
She turned around to be met with a tall muscular boy who looked about her age or a year older. His luxurious brown mop of hair sat on his head, leading to his gorgeous well-structured face with 2 cute moles. He stood there in black tux looking as dashing as ever.
"Would you care to dance?" he asked as he held out his hand and smiled he's oh so charming smile. She smiled back and took his hand dropping the finger food that was in in her other hand on the table.
He led her to the dance floor putting one of he's on her waist and the other connected with hers. They dance for in silence for a moment before he spoke up.
"So what is your name?" she looked up at him to see him smiling slightly at her.
"Kimberly, but call me Kim. Yours?" she said smartly making him laugh under his breath
"Jackson, but all me Jack" he matched her tone as she had to bite back a laugh herself.
The music slowly came to an end as the pair pulled away. He led her to a table and asked for her phone. She looked at him speciously before giving it over. He put his number in and called his number from it to get hers.
"You very interesting Kim I would love to get to know you better, you surly would be hearing from me again" he said as he stood up and bended down to give a tender kiss to her cheek. He pulled away slowly smiling at her blushing cheeks. He was about to exit the ballroom before he turned back to look at her.
"Oh and thanks for the dance" he winked and left the room leaving a dazed Kim behind.
"You're welcome" she whispered touching her cheek that he kissed.
Maybe change isn't so bad.
