I was surfing through the channels, waiting for Reece to come pick me up so that we could go to his house, when the doorbell finally rung.
I jumped to my feet and opened the door. I grabbed his hand and headed to his car before he could say anything.
“Wow, not even a hey. You must be really excited to go to my house".He said as he got into his seat and buckled his seatbelt.
“I've been bored ,waiting for you for the like thirty minutes".
“I'm sorry Av,I needed to make a few calls and arrangements. So tomorrow is your big day,are you excited?”.
“Well I guess so, I mean I'm just turning nineteen. So I don't know".
“That's a huge number.you're gonna be a big girl"he said and I rolled my eyes.
“Says the guy who's already in his twenties"
“Awwn,don't worry ,you'd get there soon smallie”He said patting my hair and I swatted his hand away, making him laugh.
I turned on the radio and Ariana’s ‘thank you, next’ blasted through the speakers.
“Ouuu I love this songggg" I said and he raised his eyebrow.
“ And why is that?,I hope you're not planning on saying those words to me" He said and stuck my tongue out and sang along as the song started.
“Thought I'd end up with Reece ,but he wasn't a match” I sang as I climbed on the chair and stuck my head out of the rooftop
“What are you doing Ava” Reece laughed “Get down before you hurt yourself and I hope I'm not the Reece you're talking about" I stuck my tongue out to him again and continued singing.
“Wrote some songs about Dav-id" I sang knowing that it would spite Reece.
“What?!”Reece shouted and I laughed but still continued “now I listen and laugh."
“Even almost got married and for Jim I'm so thankful”
“Who's Jim?".
“Wish I could say Thank you to Carlos ,cause he was an angel"
“That won't be necessary” I stopped singing when I noticed a tall,glass tower in front of me that read “The Shores” and my mouth hung open.
“Reece I think we're in the wrong place”.
“What makes you think we are?” He said driving into a parking slot that said ‘reserved’.
“Reece, that spot is reserved”
“Screw it" He said turning off the car and I quietly sat down in my seat .
“Let's go" Reece said heading to the front evolving doors.
“Reece, why are we here?"
“I have some pictures to take”
“Pictures? Here?”.
“Yes “ He said as he entered the elevator. One he got out,every where went silent and people greeted him as he passed by.
“You seem to know around this place very well"
“Let's just say, I come here often. We entered a room named 'Booth' and I open my mouth in awe of how beautiful the place was. A whole photo booth was set up with beautiful backgrounds. The place was massive and a man who looked like the photographer, came to us. He greeted Reece and then placed a kiss on the back of my hand “Mademoiselle” he said with a French accent.
“Bien uhh. Marcus meet Ava. Ava this is Marcus Roderico,the finest photographer in town".
“No way!. I've heard so much about you. I love your work" I said excitedly.
“Merçi merçi" He said “Are you ready Monsieur?”
“Actually Marc, I won't be doing a shoot today.My girlfriend here would be"
“Girlfriend?!”
“What?!” I said, the same time Marcus said 'girlfriend'.
“Yes.To both questions"Reece said with a smile.
“No no no ,No wayyy am I doing a photoshoot"
“Yes you are darling, your birthday is tomorrow”
“So?”
“Please Ava" Reece said as Marc told the artists to start on my make up and get me an outfit to wear.They practically forced me into the changing room. I felt violated as they literally changed me into a dress. My thoughts about being violated changed when I saw the beautiful dress . It was a blue off shoulder long sleeved sequential fled dress. I was given literal glass silhouettes to wear and diamond jewellery. My hair was braided into a fish tail . I looked like a ‘frozen’ princess.They touched up my makeup and took me to the booth.
“WOW”Reece said and I smiled.
“Belle!,Belle!.Give me a striking pose mademoiselle" Marcus said as he started taking pictures. So I tried posing.
“Fierce!” he said and kept taking shots.
“Intimidate them".
"Slay them"
"Bite them"
“Roar"I struck a pose and after one thousand photos ,he finally said we could stop .I went back to the dressing room to change and came back to meet Marcus.He came to me and hugged me. “Magnifique!. You were made to be a star, a model. Belle, Belle.” He said, going through the pictures. “Wow, so girlfriend, ay?” He whispered and I nodded earning me a grin from him.”I'm so glad that he has finally moved on from that she-devil"he said.
“Who?” I asked and Marcus looked behind me.
“Sebastian?” A familiar voice said from behind me . I turned around and my jaw dropped as my eyes landed on her. I couldn't believe my eyes.I didn't know whether to be surprised at who was standing before me or the fact that she just called, Reece,'Sebastian'.
