"Oh my god, everything turned out great Nicole" Halle came and hugged me "I glad you like it"
"Like it? You have a real talent for this stuff...it's perfect" I smiled, I knew I was good but it brought a sudden warmth to my heart to still hear it after all this time.Taylor decided not to come to the party because she wasn't "feeling well" but I believe she just didn't want to be around me considering we haven't talked at all since the day she left my condo.
"So your the famous Nicole Rivers?" Someone came behind me and said "It depends on who you ask" I turned around and one of the finest chocolate man I've ever seen "and you are?"
"Chris banks" he handed me the rose in his hand "Banks huh?" He smirked at me, he had some pretty white teeth "Thank you" he nodded "You must be well known to be here?"
"Would you believe me if I told you...I crashed it" I laughed "Probably not"
"Than your a smart woman, I'm a Investor that needed a break" I nodded my head "Okay, well you clearly know what I do"
"I've heard about you" I smiled "Good things I hope"
"We'll I've heard your business is quite the success, in just a year and a few months you managed to get up the A list" like I said, I knew I was good but it felt good to hear other people say it "Well what can I say? So are you looking to invest in my business?" He shook his head a little too quickly "Absolutely not" I was quite offended "I don't mix business with pleasure" he smirked at me "There is no pleasure Mr. Banks"
"There will be"I bit my lip trying to keep from smiling.
"How do you know I'm not married or in a relationship?" He put his hand in his front pocket and look at me up and down "Well if you are in a relationship and he was doing what he was suppose to than...you wouldn't have given me the time of day" I raised my eyebrows "and your not married, not without a ring"
"Are you?" He furrowed his eyebrows "Are you married?" I asked him and he looked down at his hand "Do you see a ring?"
"No ring means nothing in the world we live in today" he chuckled "I'm not married love" I nodded sipping my drink"So Thursday at 2, I'll pick you up" I scoffed "Are you asking me?"
"Did you hear a question?" I shook my head "Okay then"
