AUBREYFIVE YEARS LATER…"… over the years, Aubrey Frost has proven to be a force in marketing and business. From one store and a limited range of clothing, to one of the biggest clothing lines in America, scattered across the country, and from what I have heard, the company is set to make waves in other countries as well, anytime soon. Aubrey Frost makes billions of dollars in months, and that is asides what her husband makes from his endless chain of hotels. That family is indeed, one of the most successful, if not the most successful in New York City…" Cole nudged me, taking my attention away from the presenter who had an award to present to me. I sluggishly turned to him, wearing a huge smile of accomplishment on my face. He was grinning as well."Damn, I'm sitting next to a billionaire. Nice to meet you." He joked, outstretching his hand for a handshake. I took his hand and with all seriousness on my face, I said,"Good to meet you too. You are strikingly handsome, I must say. C

CLARISSA"He would be leaving in a few, then I would be able to clean his office.""Oh okay, try to be quick, we have a lot of preparation to do for tomorrow." My best-friend, Denise told me and I sighed, staring longingly at my boss's door."Well, knowing Mr Frost, I might be here until early hours of tomorrow morning, this man works like he's some superhuman…" I sighed.Just as Denise started to speak again, the door to his office pulled open and he stepped out with a slight smile on his face, his square-shaped glasses perched on his nose and his phone to his ear.Just like that, I was not hearing anything Denise was saying anymore, and my mouth went slack and extremely dry."I'll… call you later, okay? Bye." I hung up right away.This reaction happened every single time I saw this man. He was perfection. A six foot god with a ripped body, lean muscles and a perfectly sculpted face. He had a perfect olive tan and crisp black hair that fell over his face. His eyes were a very stormy
CLARISSAI was all dressed for work that Monday morning after the incident on Thursday, but I could not bring myself to move an inch out of the door.Denise was not making it any easier, too."I mean… never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that you would go down with your boss. You, of all people! You're the most reserved person I know, you slut!" She teased, whilst hitting the coffee maker over and over just to get it to work. It was a bit faulty, but we knew how to work our way around the thing.The sweet scent of French toast and sweet potatoes wafted across the living room from the kitchen and the coffee followed through. Denise was heavy on breakfast; I, on the other hand, could not care less.Besides, I had no appetite for food today.I leaned back against the couch, deep in thought. Should I just quit? I asked myself."It's been days now, Rissa, come on, get over it. I'm sure he's even forgotten about it. He was drunk and he has a wife, even if he remembered, I do not
AUBREYI stared at my brown haired reflection, a small smile forming in the corner of my lips. To me, this marked a new beginning, a new Clarrisa. Denise and I just arrived at Aurora springs two months ago, it was as far as we could get from New York. The hairdresser just finished styling my short layered bob, Denise insisted that me cutting my hair was too drastic, but I was eager for a change, in every way possible. Here, I decided to go by the name Aubrey, that way I was certain there was no way on earth anyone from my past could reconnect. As we stepped out of the salon, the crisp chilling air crashed against our faces. "Hold up Rissa!" Denise called from behind me. I turned out, "it's Aubrey," I said through gritted teeth. She shrugged. "That's going to take a while to stick, sorry." I rolled my eyes. Denise and I decided to open a boutique so that the money wouldn't go to waste and we could get a sustainable source of income without having to work for someone. Today was go
COLE "What do you mean you moved your show to Aurora Springs, Trent? You were supposed to stay in my hotel here in New York, we had everything set for you already, for fuck's sake." I spat into the phone and Trent replied nonchalantly, "I was not the one who moved the show, man. Dante did. By the way, you have a branch here too, I would be staying in the one here." "You do know the one in Aurora Springs is one of the properties Laila got from me after the divorce, right? Technically, it is hers now." "Oh. Well, damn." I sighed, running a hand through my hair, "Dante wants us all at your show. For support, or some shit. All along, I thought it would be in New York." "Tough luck, man. See you at the show tomorrow." Trent told me in that mischievous tone of his. He was totally enjoying this. "Fuck you, Trent." I cussed at him and ended the call with that. Why did they all think I would ever get back with my wife? They saw us as the perfect couple, and probably did all this to get
AUBREY Finally, it was the D-day for Trent's concert. Purity jumped from place to place, chattering about the show and my heart felt like it would bust from watching her. I was glad that I was able to make her this happy. I knew just how much Purity loved listening to his music so this was a huge thing for her. As the hours flew by, I got her ready and we made our way to the venue for the concert. We waited in a long line eagerly waiting until it was finally our turn. "Tickets please," the man said. "For three," I said, handing our tickets to him as he granted us entry. I made sure that Purity and I were holding hands. As we took our front row seats. The place was rowdy and bustling with energy. Purity was so excited, this was going to be her very first concert. When the place was fully occupied, the beat dropped, signaling the start of the concert The neon lights flashed as fog began to gush out of the fog machines, giving the stage an ethereal visual. The crowd went wild with
COLE Trent's concert was as good as I expected. I had to be frank, the punk handled his shows pretty decently. "Good show." I told him on our way to the hall for the auction. He just smiled widely and patted my shoulder, grabbing a bottle of water from a random table. He was already gulping the content of the bottle before I could react. My palm connected with the back of his head and he almost choked on the water, as a result, he glared at me as soon as the bottle left his lips. He was coughing a bit violently too. I did not give a fuck about that, or his anger. "Are you sick, man? That water could be spiked or something." "I don't give a fuck right now, thank you for your concern, could you give it to someone who needs it?" He threw the bottle at me, but I dodged it before it could come in contact with my body. We entered the hall, still bickering like high school friends. It was just the vibe between Trent and I, which was why no one paid attention to what was happening betwe
