Seeking Beauty

Chapter One

"True beauty radiates not from outer cosmetics, but from the simple joy of making a difference for those that need your voice, passion, and time without expecting or wanting anything in return..."

― Deborah Barnes

Chapter one:

'But I only stay with one more nigggggght'

I woke on the sound of Adam levien, I removed my sleeping patch and threw all the pillows that we're covering my face.

Who the hell is calling this early in the hour?

I picked up, "What?"

"A party? You are throwing a a party? When were you planning to tell me? If it wasnt for the service delivery guy calling me asking for the address I wouldn't have known. Answer me young lady"

my mother shrilled, I frowned. I wasn't in the mood for her shouting and nagging early in the morning.

"I forgot! Okay? Mum, come on this my celebration party" I said throwing myself on my pillow.

"What? Ronnie, you had almost three parties in these past weeks. When will you realize that this is really expansive and is indeed a waste of time" she complained.

That is so typical of my mother, whining and complaining about everything I do.

"Mum, first of all if I'm gonna be a model you have to stop calling Ronnie, okay? It's so childish! It's Veroinca, Verionca Jordan! You named me after all. Second of all, Mum these parties do cost but are you running out of money? No! Then what's the freaking problem?"

"Your attitude!! Ronnie, I'm sick of this attitude of yours. When will you ever take responsibility and see this money we inheratid form your grandfather wasn't suppose to go for your little parties. No party and that's final!" she hang up on me.

"Bitch" I murmured underneath my breath.

Let's just say me and my mum never really had a decent relationship. She would always complain on what I do, wear or anything she'd like to complain about.

But of course I wasn't going to let my mother ruin the day I planned for.

I looked up my caller ID and dialed Dad.

"Hello sweetie" he replied immediately.

"Hey daddy" I replied sweetly.

"What is it? Oh wait let me take a wild guess...ummm...you want a party and your mom said no" he Joked but of course that's right.

"Daddy, please talk to her! I really want this party and when I start modeling it would be hard to see all my friends. Please daddy" I begged putting my best 'innocent voice.

"Well, honey it's kinda your fault. You should have told your mother about the party. You know how she is...umm fine don't worry about it. But tell your mom next time"

I smirked, my charm got the job done.

"Thank you daddy" I squealed with excitement.

Nothing will ruin this day for me.

"What about this dress?" I came out of my closet with a black tight dress with long sleeves that covered half of tights, a long V neck cut in the front showed a little bit of my cleavage.

"Oh my god! Veronica, this is so sexy" Katie looked up form her phone.

"Oh I know! But is it good enough for the party?" I said admiring my reflection.

I won't deny the fact that I love my figure, it's slim yet has curves and my long blonde hair frames my oval face perfectly. my hazel eyes are usually the most noticeable feature on my face.

"Don't you think it's too revealing?" Rachel spoke flipping the pages of Marie Claire magazine.

I glared at her, "It's a party Rach, not a funeral" I snapped.

Me and Rachel were friends ever since we were ten, ever since she had those ugly braces. The only reason I was friends with her it's because my mom force me too. Since her mom used to work with mine before we got filthy rich. We are best buddies until she started showing obvious signs that she was extremely jealous of me. But then again, who isn't?

Katie join our group in freshmen year, I have saved her life form before completely tarnished by being a friendless loser when she first moved to LA. Katie is nice,bubbly which also means dumb and very naive. That meant that I can easily control her and monitor her around. Just like a puppet.

"Whatever" Rachel said uninterestedly looking back at her magazine.

"I just can't believe you're gonna be a model. You get to hook up with some fine ass Calvin Klein models. I heard that Adam levien has a thing for models" she winked at me making me smirk.

Fame, something I forever longed for and I'm one step closer to live in that glory.

"Katie, she has a boyfriend" Rachel said ruining my fantasies.

"Oh I forgot about Riley" Katie chuckled like a kid.

Oh Riley, the knight in the shinning armor. He's everything a popular guy should be. He's smart, athletic, nice and very hot.

The cliche characteristics of high school jock.

"What about Riley? You will be modeling. How will that work out?" Rachel asked curiously.

"You know, I have thinking about it. I might end it...I don't believe in long distance relationships. Plus I don't know if I can control myself from flirting with all the sexy male models" I went in the closet to search for another dress.

"So your just gonna dump...him?" Rachel looked at me.

"What's the big deal? Yeah he's cute and all but come on let's be for real..." I replied quickly, Since she was pissing me off.

Why was she so concerned about Riley?

"Yeah" she replied bitting her Lips.

"Anyway, what are you guys wearing?" I asked while moving my hangers to find the dress I had in mind.

"Well, I just got this form London. Custom made for me of course." Katie said pulling out copper-ish dress that was filled with mini sparkly rocks.

I loved it but I course it wasn't anything like the dress I had in mind.

"Sexy, you definitely get an A for that" I said giving her my approval. She smiled proudly, I loved the sense of control.

I looked at Rachel and she slowly reached her plastic bag and pulled out a normal grey dress with a simple black belt.

It was utterly ugly.

"Rach, what the fuck is this?" I asked angrily.

I'm soon to be famous and I expect my friends to dress fashionably.

"What do you mean?" she said innocently, her face became so small like she was about to cry.

"Rach, you can't wear that dress. It's hideous! I'll leaned you something or ....you know what I'll give it to you." I said fast before she cries because I wasn't in the mood for tears and drama.

I pulled out a lilac V-cut dress and handed it to her.

"That should do it" I said smiling. She just nodded her head.

I had no time for drama.

I finally found the dress I was looking for, it was strapless and plain black on the top but feathery in the bottom.

Just the dress that will turn heads as if I don't already do.
