Finally after about two weeks, I was done moving everything in. Brenda was right, I would have to make some renovations. So I called some people and pretty soon the entire penthouse will be remodeled, but until then it was livable. "Are we done?" Kim whined plopping down onto my white leather couch as if she actually had to do hard work. She barely even lifted a finger.
"Yes, Kimberly, we're done." I just wanted to annoy her which worked. She hated when people called her by her government name. She rolled her eyes and sighed dramatically, "I'm so hungry!" She yelled and even though the house was full of furniture, there was an echo. We both childishly looked at each other and giggled. "I'm so proud of you, Jade! Fourteen million in a freaking day? That's crazy." She smiled getting up and grabbing an orange from the kitchen.
"I can't believe it either, Kimmy. But come on, I think I want some Winstead's." Winstead's has the best goddamned butter scotch shake you'll ever taste in your life. "Or Chipotle." She recommended which immediately won my vote. "Yes ma'am, Chipotle it is." I threw on a hoodie, some sweatpants and my red white and black sneakers.
My hair was braided so when I took out the four braids my hair had a gorgeous crinkle to it. I threw on a black beanie and some lip gloss and I was ready. Chantel just threw on a white spaghetti strapped t-shirt and some black sweatpants. Her hair was cute in big beach waves and split down the middle. She put on some lip gloss as well and we both grabbed our wallets and left.
"I love this whole swipe to enter thing, that's some CIA type shit." She said and I nodded, "Girl I know! When I first saw Brenda do that I got so happy! I felt all important and stuff." She laughed and rolled her eyes. "I'm just glad that everything is starting to come together."Her eyes hardened a bit, and I could tell that she was thinking about everything we went throught these past few years.
We joked and messed around so much that when the elevator reached the lobby we weren't paying attention until the doors closed. Then we both looked at the door and busted out laughing. We pressed the button for the doors to open again and stepped out one by one. I let her out first as I fixed my lip gloss using my phone as a mirror.
"Is there ever a moment when y'all don't look absolutely gorgeous?" A voice that I immediately recognized called out to us. Kim turned around and smiled as I turned slowly to see Danny and Marco making their way to us. I honestly don't know why, but I wanted to run away. His aura was powerful, he could make any room feel smaller just by how he carried himself.
And his face, my God it was perfect. Beautiful brown eyes, and rich dark hair. His lips weren't full but they still made me want to kiss him. I wondered what they would feel like on my-- What? No. We are not doing this Jade.
I literally never had thoughts like that before. I mean, I'd probably say that an actor was sexy or that he could get it, but I never really had any sexual thoughts until I met him. "Slaying is a habit." Was my retort and I internally patted myself on the back for that one. How I remained so cool beats me.
"Especially when you have your own fashion line." Kim interjected and Marco's eyes went straight to her scanning her over. I didn't miss the lust in their eyes. "You have your own fashion line?" Marco asked her with a smirk, and she smirked back.
"No sir, she has her own fashion line. I'm simply a co-founder. Also one of the top designers for the company." If it weren't for her, I wouldn't even be this far. She played a major part in getting this company where it is today, and that's why we share everything. We've been roommates since the company started and soon she's going to move in the penthouse with me. We have never done well separated, ever. She's my rock.
"No wonder you look so gorgeous everywhere you go." Danny spoke to me and I smiled. "I try." I shrugged nonchalantly and he cocked an eyebrow at me, "And trust me you succeed." He said licking his lips and I watched as if he were moving in slow motion. It took me a few seconds to realize that he was talking to me. "What?" I asked after not hearing anything he said. He chuckled a little bit and looked at Marco who shook his head playfully at me.
