“Yeah, it’s good to stay busy. Helps the mind, right?”, Quincy agreed, trying to keep hir tone light. Ze looked around before answering, “AJ is around somewhere, or not, probably still at his office making calls like the pro he is. Constantly working, that man, but at least he’s always got my back.” After ze said it, ze realised that may have sounded like a dig at Tommy. To stop hirself from overthinking and panicking about it, ze took a quick sip and then help hir glass in both hands while listening to Tommy say he missed Quincy too. Perhaps he wasn’t seeing anyone. Was there a chance?

Looking back up to see if there was a chance, xe noticed Tommy’s eyes brighten as they locked onto someone in the crowd. No, no chance of that. Quincy followed his line of sight and saw a woman, turning around and meeting Tommy’s gaze. It didn’t take much to put two and two together. The connection between them was evident and Quincy felt a pang of jealousy mixed with resignation.
[color=#66b2b2]“That’s good to hear, Tommy,” Quincy replied, focusing on keeping hir voice steady as xe turned hir head back around. “It’s always interesting to see who shows up to these events. Networking is half the fun, right?” Xe didn’t mean to sound as cynical as it came out, but xe did.

Taking another sip of hir Old Fashioned, Quincy decided to address his new interest. “You seem pretty excited to see someone,” xe said, attempting smile. “Anyone I should know about?” Xe looked over to who xe assumed was the new person in Tommy’s life, the smile still on hir face. She was gorgeous, xe will give him that; a beautiful choice. Xe nodded hir head to her, in a gesture to welcome her over.

Lucy smiled as Blake laughed. His laugh was infectious. She giggled when he said “I mean, they’re pretty badass. Looks like you could wrestle a couple of bears or something.” She looked at him in the eyes. Then he said just kidding. “I mean if I look like I can wrestle some bears; at least I look tough.” She giggled more as he put his hand on the bar, and it was almost touching hers. She wanted so badly to reach out and grab it so bad.

She nodded her head as he talks. She sips her drink as well. “I get not being able to tell me about the movie. Well at least your back in the action world. You always did love a good action role.” She smiled at him, and her hand brushed his as she went to sip her drink again. She smiled big as he said he heard about her album. “Glad to know you keep up with my career sir.” She winked at him. Then he asked if she would branch out. “I actually thought about doing a duet for rock, and pop” She said as she giggled at him singing and dancing.

Faust rolled his eyes comically. “Sav, stop being so humble, by that time the show was beneath you and I couldn’t hold you down to something that was no longer able to contain neither you or Issa. Let’s not mention it again, I did like it, I knew it was going to end because both you and Issa grew to be bigger than it, and I came to terms with it, but I didn’t want you guys to be sad or anything for following your natural path so I said I wanted to end the show to easer your own exit from it.”


Faust sighed before answering. He felt as if he was talking to Graham Norton. Like the feeling your’re interviewed by the press on a sore subject, but it’s the type of press you feel comfortable with. Still there’s this tinge of discomfort, yet he didn’t let it show and answered her questions, but with less detail than if she asked something not about the attack.
“No, the stalker is still out somewhere. I have no clue who it might be, so I thought it would be better to come here, where I feel safer, with constant surveilance, friends and most importnatly … My loving family.” He switched the subject to his family hoping to be asked about them, but then he remebered he still hasn’t talked to either of them since coming here so if he were asked something, he wouldn’t know anything except for that renovation a few years back. He turned his gaze back at Ezra, hoping to see if he would want to be introduced to Savannah. He remebered how much younger than himself Ezra was, he was even younger than Savannah, who was a teenager when Faust was finishing university, and Ezra would’ve been even younger back then, barely a teenager at 13 years old.

Bennett watches his wife walk a little before him and was checking her out and smiled. He then walked to the couch and sat down and with her and faced her. Before he could ask what was going on Opal started to drink her water then started to speak and she seemed nervous for some reason. Opal then tried to get out of it and stood up. Bennett took her hand in his “Babe sit down, this is clearly something important and I know your ways, so I know if you don’t say it now you probably won’t ever say it. We can go and enjoy the party after.”

It was ironic since he was hiding something from his wife that was serious but he was not ready to share what the news is, and it was definitely not the right time tonight to share that details. He loved his wife but he hated worrying her, plus he was still not sure how to feel about it. “You know whatever it is we will figure it out, and I will be right here by your side. Did you do something wrong?”

Savannah playfully and lightly hit Faust arm in a playful way when he said stop being so humble. As she hit his arm playfully she was listening to the rest of what he said about the stalker and the incident. He then said again that he did not want to keep us on the show when Issa and I wanted to grow bigger and our separate ways and said that he does not want to mention it again. “I’m not being humble Faus just stating facts but I get it and we will stop talking about it.”

In regards to his statements about the stalker he did state that the stalker is out there and has no idea who it is and why he decided to come back to Beverly Shores which he felt safer with the surveillance and being with friends and family. Savannah wanted to ask how his family was doing, but then she figured if she did it would lead down to the family conversation and he would ask how her family was and she has not talked or seen her family since getting emancipated at 17. Savannah saw Faust gaze in someone’s direction and was curious who it was. “Do you know that person?” She was not sure if maybe Faust was friends with the person or was having some drama.

Helen’s eyes widened in surprise as Dave suddenly excused himself, leaving her feeling lost and uncertain. She watched as he walked away, feeling like she was abandoned in the middle of a sea of strangers. She had expected him to be more… invested in their appearance, or at least pretend to be. But instead, he had simply handed her off to Tommy and walked away. It’s fine. Everything is fine. The world is still round and birds are still flying.

As she looked around, she spotted Tommy, who was already talking with a someone. Helen hesitated for a moment, not wanting to intrude on their conversation. But as she scanned the room, she realized that she didn’t know anyone else here, and Tommy was the only familiar face. Helen looked back around and their eyes met. Tommy smiled at her like welcoming her into the conversation, Helen hesitated, looking to the other seemingly beautiful woman with short brown wavy hair and a dress that hugged her edges. The person Tommy was talking to nodded hir head to Helen, in a gesture to welcome her over.

Helen took a deep breath and mustered up her courage, feeling a mix of trepidation and curiosity. She didn’t know what was going on or what to expect, but Tommy’s friendly demeanor and the other woman’s warm smile made her feel like she was being included, if only slightly. Helen made her way over to them, trying to appear confident and composed, even though her insides were still reeling from Dave’s sudden departure.

“Hello,” Helen said waving, her smile finally reaching her eyes. Helen realized that xe was even more beautiful up close. Helen extended a hand to xe, “hi, I’m Helen Bannarasee.” She offered politely, wondering if Tommy had mentioned her at all. She glanced at him.

What a boring day. Another sketch of his idea was once again crumpled by his expectation of making a form of statement to one of his clients. The task was quite simple with the orientation that he had managed, and yet, his motivation and creativity were at his wit’s end. Feeling a sharp pain from the back of his neck, Marco took a halt on his project and went on to his journal to find a suitable time to go back and continue this project with a fresh mind. As he finished writing, he took a good look at his drawing room and saw bottles of brandy and crumpled paper scattered among the wooden floors. Picking up the mess he had made, a recollection came into his mind of the Thanksgiving Yacht Party that would take place tonight. At this age, he found himself secluded in his home, managing his boutique, and went out to parties a few times to meet with the neighbors. With a craving to go out and enjoy his 30s, he finally declared to himself that he would finally go out and be the person he was back in New York.

At an event that focused on a yacht, Marco sketched a plan for what he would wear to gain attention. Of course, he had to note: the invitation’s note on the color scheme, the environment, the weight and texture, and a suit that fits this’surrounded by the ocean’ vibe. He had a perfect suit for it, custom-made when he was invited to a New Year’s event, lucrative enough so as not to be noticed that it was reused. Searching in his closet, he pulled out each zipper to peek at the contents until he finally found what he was looking for: a nice bedazzled red suit with a shine that was as luminous and smooth as spilt red wine. Marco debated whether or not he would wear a blouse, but soon decided to go bear as he would be in a place where a pool and an ocean surround him. Jewelry was kept simple to give attention to the suit, along with pushing his hair back to give a cleaner, lean look in an otherwise baggy silhouette. With a touch of red makeup, a spritz of perfume, and a nice red shoe, he watched the local news as he planned to arrive at the yacht ‘fashionably late’.

With enough time in his hands, he went for a quick stop in a place where he would get the borrowed jewelry a friend had borrowed for an event. Before leaving, however, a tall man with hair as wild as a lion’s mane came upon him face-to-face. The man did introduce himself, delighted to see a friendly and handsome presence. After his introduction, Marco gave a subtle smile and said, “Marco Manzo. Stylist. Pleased to meet you.” With a swift hand, he pulled out a calling card to give to Blake, signaling a possible client in his hands.


Arriving just slightly late enough for the guests to arrive, his arrival gave a bit of attention to the paparazzies with his outfits. Pictures and some smaller interviews happened as he knew that his status couldn’t be compared to the celebrities, as much as he wished to get that kind of recognition, and so he went on to the yacht at lightning speed. In the casual background of other guests conversing and making some form of connection, Marco trolled along the yacht to bask in the view and look at some of the choices the stars and the scene had made for this event. Hearing some dramas and escapades is common in a room full of personalities, yet his eyes were focused on the clothing and what it entails about their tastes. Some were deserving of a nod, while there were others that did nothing but pucker his lips through the choices and basicness. And they say stylists are quite useless, yet here they are, lightly mumbling on his lips as he felt that he had perused enough.

After window shopping on the hottest and coldest fashions of Beverly Shore, a drink from one of the waiters was enough to quench his thirst as he basked in the view of the ocean. Nearby, he saw Emilio on the side as his grand entrance caused some form of commotion in the crowd. Of course, the golden boy himself would go around and make an ostentatious act. Such is the life of a celebrity. His heart took a beat when Marco finally saw his face, and yet, there was something he could not get out of his chest. A burning sensation. He had to talk to him; he really had to. Going to a vicinity somewhat near his presence, he noticed another familiar face. Dejay.

Sitting next to him, he had hoped that he would notice him by chance, as Marco knows that he has a certain type of energy that attracts and stays. Nothing. With his presence not acknowledged, he went on to clear his throat so as to circle Dejay back to reality. Still, no effect. Marco, slightly irritated, wondered who he was so transfixed by, only to look in the direction of Emilio. Of course, he is his bodyguard, after all. Bothered by the lack of attention from a good friend of his, he lightly flipped his fork so as to shock Dejay out of his trance. Finally, he did take action. Upon wiping the fork, both eyes met, with one having a face of realization on who he had given the fork to: “Thank you, such a gentleman. If only men are as courteous as you are.”

That playful tone in his throat was reinvigorated by the sight of him. A charming smile came upon Marco as he lightly teased Dejay in a coquettish manner. “Seems like we don’t know each other, eh? I’d be the first one to tell you that I’m Marco. What’s yours, handsome?" Letting out a laugh, he took a sip from his drink as he wondered something from the looks of Dejay when he was in pilot mode. Still keeping up that playful tone, Marco noted, “t seems like you were in pilot mode back there. Anything to look out for? Is it… him?” He continued on as he cleared his throat, “Is he… doing alright? Something’s fishy, and it’s not the ocean.”

Tommy smiled as Quincy smiled at Helen welcoming her over. This did mean a lot to him. Helen was a beautiful woman with long brown hair and beautiful brown eyes. However, one she was a client and two she was technically dating his other client, Dave, well as far as the world knew. Tommy did wonder where Dave had gone. Did he run off for another woman. Tommy’s mind started racing. He felt his breath caught up in his throat as Helen introduced herself. Tommy looked to Quincy then back over to Helen. Boy was he in trouble with this conversation. However, he knew how to navigate it to go without a hiccup; or so he hoped. He smiled at Helen “So, Helen do you want a drink?” He asked her and then turned back to Quincy. “Quincy, Darling, meet my newest client, Helen.” He was a little nervous as to how this was gonna go.

He wondered what Quincy thought about Helen being his client. He wondered what Helen would think of Quincy. He wasn’t sure why he was so nervous, maybe it’s because he has feelings for them both. Maybe it’s because he is scared his feelings for Helen might be stronger than his feelings for Quincy. Even though he has longed for Quincy a good bit over these last eight months since their big fight and breakup. His mind was racing, and he decided to down his drink. He waited for Helen’s response about the drink before ordering another for himself.

Ezra was a good body guard. Actually, great. Which was why he knew better than to eavesdrop on his newest client, Faust. Okay, well, look like he wasn’t eavesdropping. He had to be eyes and ears and everything in between. Ezra even pretended he had a psychology degree, he’d learnt to read people like a book. Although Faust had looked back at him several times, he seems at least comfortable in the conversation with Savanna Healy. Yep. He knew her. Ezra had done his homework on Faust, and everyone he had connections too or possible connections. So, when Savanna said, “Do you know that person?” and Faust kept looking to him, Ezra strode over.

Ezra didn’t hesitate to intervene, approaching them with a firm tone. “Ezra May,” he said, his voice commanding attention. He maintained a professional demeanor, deliberately avoiding any flirtation or friendly tone with her. Ezra was all about maintaining a level head and keeping his emotions in check—it was essential for his job. He almost felt giddy over his professionalism hiding under his stoic expression.

When Savy asked “Do you know that person?” Faust turned around to check if she was looking at Ezra or somebody else. He didn’t want to say ‘Oh yeah, that’s Ezra.’ When she might’ve been looking at somebody else. However, as soon as he turned back to introduce him to her and invite him over, Ezra walked over himself and introduced himself. Faust smiled when Ezra surprised him becuase by now he’s been like a statue, not showing much emotion or anything out of the ordinary. However, Ezra only mentioned his name, so Faust filled Sav in “Ezra is my bodyguard. I felt the necessity to get one after what happened.” He said. Ezra might not know it but he means a lot to Faust, even with being so professional and different but it didn’t matter to Faust when there was safety for him in a suddenly unsafe world. He was like a female in the early 1900s when safety was more important than liking your partner because the world was unfair and unsafe for women. “Can you believe it, he’s younger than me. He’s even younger than you.” Suddenly the weight of choices leading to a life where by age 40 he has no wife and no kids even though he would love having a family … well it came down on him and the sudden realization kept him from making any further comments about age trying to avoid any further heavy realizations.

When isla opened her eyes, she saw Isabella standing there.

“Well, hello there Isla. What brings you to my side of town?”

Isla didn’t know what to say, she knew this situation could possibly happen and mentally prepared herself lots of times. Still, it was jarring to see isabella standing there in the flesh. She straightened her posture. “Oh! Isabella! Its nice to see you again, how have you been?” She put on a fake smile. She did not want Isabella to know just how nervous she was but deep down she really knew that this could go into awkward territory real fast.

Before Fraust could answer, the mystery man walked towards them and introduced himself as “Ezra May” in a serious tone. Faust then continues explaining how Ezra is his bodyguard and why he hired a bodyguard. Faust also mentioned that Ezra was younger than both of them which kind of impressed her, since they were not that old, and he is already got hired as a bodyguard for a celebrity. “Well nice to meet you Ezra, i’m Savannah Healy or also known as Blair London.” She was not sure if she should ask any questions since Ezra seems pretty serious and Faus, she just was not sure if he would answer any questions.

Savannah didn’t care she figured she would ask and see if she can get any information. “So how long ha Ezra been working for you? Also Ezra what made you want to be a bodyguard?”

Josie couldn’t help herself, she let out a small laugh. This man was very persistent almost like a puppy dog. She smirked and leaned in a bit closer. “Oh really?” The next thing he said about wondering if she married for money made her laugh as well. “I definitely haven’t married for money, but it doesn’t hurt to have some stability and the ability to be spoiled does it?”

As Shaun talked about his new managing venture and explaining why he hasn’t been in any new movies this year, Josie could feel herself getting uninterested. She almost wanted to know what he would say if her husband just walked up to them, but obviously that couldn’t happen since her husband was on another business trip. Still, she imagined Shaun getting choked up just at the sight of her husband standing there. The thought of that made her almost chortle.

“Well, that’s a great business move. Becoming a manager.” She let out a deep breath as if talking to him was strenuous.

“Look babe, my music career is going fine. I don’t need any connections but thanks.” She rolled her eyes and started paying attention to the people around them. “Well it was nice… Talking to you…” She started walking away with Francisco, getting lost in the crowd to go mingle with others.

Opal turned and looked into Bennett’s eyes as he took her hand, feeling reassurance in his grip as he gently pulled her back to the couch beside him, saying it clearly can’t wait. Letting out a small sigh once she was sitting, she smoothed out her dress with her free hand. The words she had been rehearsing in her mind didn’t seem the right ones now that she was in the moment. Still holding onto Bennett’s hand, she lifted her free hand to her hair, her fingers began twirling strands of purple. “You know, this reminds me of the last time we were at an event like this. Remember? That charity gala where you spilled red wine on my dress, and we spent half the night trying to clean it off?” She chuckled nervously, trying to ease into the conversation. “I was so mad at you deep down, I think you knew that, at least you did when we got home. But your suggestion for how to fix the stain was to ripe the dress off me and well, you know what you did.” She smirked.

“I’m happy it happened that way in the end,” Opal’s voice trailed off as she stared into her glass of water. She took a sip to find the courage to continue. “Bennett, I’ve been thinking a lot these past few days. About us." She glanced up at him, trying to read his face. “There’s something I need to tell you and I haven’t known how to bring it up. Bennett,” Her voice trembled a little on his name. “I’m pregnant."

Pausing a second to watch his reaction, she quickly continued before he could speak, “I… I don’t know if I’ll keep it. My thought is to abort it. That thought makes me cringe and I don’t understand why, but I’m also terrified about what this means for my career, for us, for everything.” Opal took a deep breath. “I don’t want to burden you with this right now, especially tonight, but I couldn’t keep it from you any longer. I’m scared, Bennett. I don’t know what to do.”

Quincy kept the smile on hir face as Helen walked over. Ze watched Helen, taking in her red cocktail dress that fit her figure perfectly, her skin that looked ever so clear, at least with the case of well-applied makeup, and xe noted the way Tommy’s eyes lit up at her arrival. When Helen extended her hand, Quincy took it gently and responded, “Hello, Helen. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Quincy.” Ze introduced hirself, trying to remain cordial despite the awkwardness xe felt. “I don’t believe I’ve seen your face around before. Have you been hiding away?”

Hir eyes flickered to Tommy as he introduced Helen as his newest client. A rush of relief mixed with lingering suspicion washed over hir. So, she was just a client. But then, why did he look so nervous. Quincy wouldn’t have suspected nervousness if she hadn’t just watched Tommy down his drink, but still, xe maintained hir composure. Ze couldn’t help but wonder if there was more to their relationship than just professional ties.

Turning back to Helen, Quincy tried to continue with small talk. “So, Helen, what brings you into Tommy’s capable hands? Are you new to the industry or just looking for a change in representation?” Quincy took another sip of hir Old Fashioned. Ze hoped that by keeping the conversation lightly focused on Helen, xe could gauge more about her relationship with Tommy. At the same time, ze struggled with the pang of jealousy, trying to remind hirself that Tommy’s clients were just that; his clients. Quincy added, “Tommy is great at what he does. You’re in good hands.” The words felt slightly forced to hir, but hopefully only to hir! Xe felt a little paranoid now and started to fidget with the hem of hir dress.


@Tina.G - Helen - That’s totally fine and completely understandable. Without knowing, people make assumptions, it’s human nature. It’s only when a person is told and still makes the error that can look bad. Although, one or two mistakes occasionally is okay. (wink)

. “Welll, Emiliano is already someone that seems to have caught everyone’s attention”

Of course he had, Silas mused to herself. “He is hollywood’s prodigal child after all,” Disappeared for four years, just like that. Like damn Though Silas was never one to get caught up in the lives of others – she’d admit, snooping into other people’s affairs was entertaining – she did wonder where Emiliano De La Cruz had vanished all these years. Even her uncle had asked about his disappearance when Silas finally secured a spot in Beverly Shores a year ago. All she could say was, Man, how the hell am I supposed to know? Does it look like his lordship and I were besties in middle school?" That had of course earned her a mean mug from her uncle, who had gone on to explain himself, saying that he had meant if she had heard any rumors about his disappearance in Beverly Shores. But Silas had heard nothing, except the whispers about him getting hooked on fentanyl and dumping Winsley to marry another woman. It didn’t sound too plausible, but if it was true, that was funny as hell. 'Disappeared for four years and shxt, he’s bound to have people’s eyes on him. Especially after the fentanyl rumors."

Silas glanced at Emiliano, searching for any signs of him possibly being a crackhead. But to her, he looked fine. As someone who grew up around a lot of crackheads and had played around with drugs herself, Silas could tell Emiliano had definitely not touched any drugs.

“Don’t think he’s doing drugs though, if he is, damn the mf hides it well,” Silas said with a small chuckle. Beck had asked if Silas personally knew Emilio and she shrugged, “We don’t run in the same circle, Mam, and even if I could have gotten the chance to meet him here, I came here a year ago, he already disappeared by then.” She pointed out, listening to the rest of Beck’s question. She did agree that it was strange how he had disappeared for this long, but then again, he could have needed a break from Hollywood- he had like 5 projects coming out in a year before he disappeared from what Silas had heard, like Silas did not think it would be possible for her to produce 5 albums in a year- it’s been 2 years since she’s dropped her sophomore album after all, and according to Dasinners 2 years too long.

Silas thought that sometimes, the world just demanded too much. People tended to forget that entertainers where humans too (but then again the reason why Silas hasn’t yet dropped her third album despite the album almost being ready was due to laziness more than a lack of motivation) Moreover, Emiliano probably needed to breathe, to step back from the madness that had swallowed him whole. And maybe, just maybe, he was out there finding a piece of himself he’d lost along the way. Sht like that ain’t selfish, though it was uncalled for not to tell your family where you were going. “Probably needed some time to breathe,” Though four years a lot of time. "can’t blame him, besides who are we to judge? We don’t even know why he truly left, but enough about him.’ Silas said turning to Blake as she flashed her a smile. . “Producing going well for you?”

Isabella had her award-winning smile on still as she looked Isla in the eye. She really wondered why the hell her ex was here. Like of all places. Why did Isla have to be where Izzy was. She could tell that Isla had a fake smile on and that she was playing nice. She took a deep breath before responding. “Nice to see you too. I’ve been fantastic and you?” Isabella asked with a grin on her face. She took a sip of her drink and waited to see Isla’s next move. Would she be honest with Isabella? Would she lie to Isabella? She knew this probably would get awkward before long. She kind of wished Rowan would come swoop in and save her from this humiliating conversation. Isla and Isabella ended on not so good terms. For Isabella. Well Isla being her first actual relationship… It was hard for Isabella to stand here and play nice. Yes, they had some great memories. They had great times. However, to Isabella the bad outweighed the good. “So who are you working for nowadays?” She asked trying to keep the conversation light and polite but not too personal.

The city of angels, they call it. The city shone like the gold shimmer on Violets earrings, the golden ones she chose in adherence to the dress code. Her dress hugged her curves in a bit of a raunchy way for a woman her age, but her body looked nothing over 28, with the top of her full breasts exposed. She had a slim waist and perfect abdomen concealed by the fabric, as well as defined hips, and toned legs that were almost fully exposed by the length of the dress, or… lack thereof, combined with its sleek slit. It was a bit short, but she had always been the most controversial out of the Wallaces.

Contrary to the suggestion of her “clout-chasing” tendencies, Violet, better known as Celeste Wallace, did not become an actress for fame. Truly the best part of her career was the craft itself. She was bewitched by the appeal of dedicating her life to the things that she loved most; obviously the scene and being a part of it, but did not exclude having a luxurious and meticulously planned style, and viewing and tweaking the cinematographic aspects of her films with the crew. Truly, she would have been a producer if it were not for the household’s name. Though it was not much of a household, as the sisters were past the point in their life where they lived together.

Currently, she shared ownership of her home with her husband, Isaac Hyde, renowned member of the Static Sun band that had conquered the musical charts of the 2010s. Isaac, like her, was also quite the artist, so his craft had more substance than just taking his shirt off and appearing like the ideal boyfriend for every teenage girl, although that was definitely a part of it. He was always a bit more of a punk, her favorite thing about him despite its lack of appeal to the posh, stainless actors that often surrounded her. Fans often think that she chose him because he was the only person she could be uncensored around, like a breath of fresh air. Then there was also that ambrosial tattoo on his neck that could almost begin to fade considering how often she pressed her tongue against its ink. She never did let him forget how much she cherished him.

It is clear that she is not a vanilla-flavored woman, in fact she would better be described as something like hibiscus, for its hot pink stain and popularity in her native region. She was publicly bisexual, although she seldom got around to dating women, and dressed a bit uncoventionally as well. Despite her differences, however, she was still a Wallace by name, at least to the public. She liked to limit the number of people who knew her real identity.

Her sisters were at their houses readying themselves as well, although maybe they were together, there was always some sort of exclusion going on between the three of them. She hoped they were not alone, after those awful divorces they both went through, they must have been spending many nights by themselves. At least Claudia had her children, sometimes it was hard to believe that they were so much older now, as she had known them since they were children.

“Baby, what did you put on? I need to approve,” she said a bit demandingly. Some could say that Violet was controlling, but how could she not be? Isaac had a tendency to be significantly more outlandish than she was, with his always-speaking mouth and musician sense of self-expression that his stylist only fueled (practically a walking personification of ADHD). He walked into the room, and she was pleasantly surprised, opening her arms to gesture. “So good,” she said, cutting her sentence on both edges like The Valley girl she once trained to be. He walked up close to her so they could speak, and sparks laced with heat flew between them, it was a good thing they still had chemistry.

“You look very handsome,” she said, composed. There was no need to address their tension because they were supposed to be seeing her sisters soon, and they had already woken up quite passionate in the morning. “Shall we go?” Violet smiled, and after he agreed, they went to leave the house, briefly saying goodbye to their children. Little Skye was about to turn 3 years old, and Xander, the funny son, was showing off that he could put up his light brown hair into a ponytail at the top of his head. Her oldest, however, Francisco’s daughter, had to be found in her room to get her kiss goodbye. She was very complex for a nine-year-old, and Violet pitied that. Out of her three babies, Lila was the most like herself. She knew she was the odd one out, her little brothers were a bit younger than her, and her dad wasn’t theirs. She didn’t get to see hers as much, either, because he was always on tour, and so she had to stay with her mom. It was a pain that she both empathized and identified with, as she never knew her father growing up as well, not until she found out she was a Wallace as an adult. It hurt having to leave her alone for events like this, but she had to hope that a kiss goodbye was enough; that they did not forget about their parents when the Nanny was let in by the maid.

She brushed her hands over the white fabric on her hips when she left Lila’s room, dropping the melancholy for a more professional mood, her face resting like she would look great no matter how the paparazzi might try to catch her by surprise. She went to Isaac, waiting for her in the grand living space of the house. They had designed their home themselves, so instead of sofas or anything of the sort, they had a little conversation pit beside where her husband stood. The house was stunning, brought together by different textures and hues making its modern, euphoric silhouette. Celeste took one last heel step to where Isaac stood, and took in hers his tough hand to tell him she was ready to lead. As expected, he had not put much of an effort into saying goodbye to the kids. She turned to face him before they left, give him a small smile, and there was a depth in her eyes that he seemed immune to, giving her a casual nod in return.

Outside of the door, they reached the white polished-stone land of what they would sometimes call a front porch, walking down the grand steps to the black limousine that waited for them. Claudia had already sat in the vehicle, and Cameron was walking in its direction as well. Celeste looked to Cameron with a knowing expression, like she knew that they would soon be quarreling, but neither of them were disposed to be openly vile. Quickly, however, her gaze drifted to the chauffeur opening the door for them. She squeezed Isaac’s hand to keep him in place, and they let Cameron enter first. Then, she lowered her head with as much grace as she could to get into the black car, sliding onto the leather seats with ease. Isaac followed, and sat next to them, but the subtle war had already began. She looked at both of her sisters, and smiled brightly, she still wanted to act peaceful at first, then throw away their insults with weak jokes later. “You girls look beautiful!!” Celeste beamed. Perhaps one should say that she should feel intimidated by the sisters, as she was the odd one out, but on the contrary, she viewed it as a reason to try harder. Where she did not fit in, she swiveled in like a snake.

“Ezra is my bodyguard. I felt the necessity to get one after what happened.” Okay, so Faust was okay with people knowing Ezra was his bodyguard. Or that he had a bodyguard in general. Ezra kept that knowledge in his back pocket. “Can you believe it, he’s younger than me. He’s even younger than you.” Ezra’s lip quirked up for a second, but quickly let it fall away. “Well nice to meet you Ezra, i’m Savannah Healy or also known as Blair London.” Ezra politely reached his hand out to shake hers, something he wouldn’t normally do to a clients friend, but he didn’t want to leave a bad taste in her mouth as Faust seemed to enjoy her company.

“So how long has Ezra been working for you? Also Ezra what made you want to be a bodyguard?” Ezra listed to Faust answer. But he couldn’t help it, he smiled. “After I was discharged the second time I decided to settle down for family. I guess I needed something similar, but different? Something with a similar amount of discipline and structure.” Something with clear cut rules, something I knew..

“Hello, Helen. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Quincy.” Quincy gently shook Helen’s hand, “I don’t believe I’ve seen your face around before. Have you been hiding away?” Helen smiled, her nose scrunching up slightly. “Oh, no, I actually just moved to Beverly Shores. It’s been quite a change, but one I’m grateful for.” Helen said politely, really trying to keep it light. To banish the awkwardness she was internally feeling.

“So, Helen do you want a drink?” Helen didn’t typically drink, but she would be glad to have something in her hand. “That would be great, thanks. Anything is fine.” Helen just listened as Tommy continued. “Quincy, Darling, meet my newest client, Helen.” Oooh Helen thought. This must be Tommy’s special someone. He had never mentioned anyone, but then again, he was only her manager. Helen relaxed a bit, if Tommy liked xir then ze was probably pretty nice. Chill. Helen trusted Tommy’s judgment.

“So, Helen, what brings you into Tommy’s capable hands? Are you new to the industry or just looking for a change in representation?” Helen slipped her hands around her glass, she loved this question. “I suppose I am now. I was originally based from Thailand as a model, so I know how the system works there. But I needed a bit of a leg up here, and Tommy has been my saving grace. I had actually met him some years ago, when I came to the United States for a movie. But the odds we ended up together—working together again? Saving grace.” Helen took a small sip. “Anyway, he’s been helping me around the acting world here.” Helen smiled proudly, looking over to Tommy. “Tommy is great at what he does. You’re in good hands.” Helen nodded, “I agree, I appreciate you so much, Tommy.” She beamed.

Once Bennett looked and her and held her hand as in to staying stop don’t walk away Opal sat back down on the couch and continued to hold hands. He noticed that Opal was twirling her hand with her fingers and she does this sometimes when she is nervous about something. She then mentioned about the Charity Gala where I spilt red wine on her dress and how upset she was and how that night ended. “Oh yeah baby I remember that night very well, and I knew you were mad at me, hence why i was trying to help get that stain out. Even if we got it out I knew you would still be mad but I tried. That was a wonderful suggestion I had when we got home, still think it was the best decision.” He smirked at her and then gave a little playful wink as she drank her water.

Opal then continued speaking after drinking her water and said she has been thinking the last few days about them and he was really nervous thinking he did something wrong or that she was going to say that she wants a divorce. Opal then said the words that Bennett never expected to hear which was that she was pregnant. Bennett’s eyes went wide really fast ad he froze basically, he did not even know that they could have kids and they talked about it saying they were fine with not having kids and focusing on there careers. Opal also mentioned that she is not sure if she will keep it and thought about aborting it which makes her cringe at the thought but she is also scared about what it would mean for career and just everything. Bennett took a minute or two to compose himself from the shocking news. “Hey hey hey honey we will figure this out ok. We can talk about this later when we get home or tomorrow, but no matter what, we will come to a decision together. I am shocked of the news to be honest and a little scared myself but it will all work out in the end on whatever decision that we make. I do appreciate you telling me though. For now let’s go and enjoy ourselves and later or tomorrow we can talk more about this.” Bennett hugs her for a moment so that way she knows he isn’t upset and he figured she needed the comfort eve for a moment. “But come to think of it, it now makes sense why you did not really like the Champagne and why you got water instead of another beverage.”
