Beyond the Sea

Chapter 2

I made a turn onto 92nd street. Home, finally. My apartment was pretty decent for this area. It had 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen and living room plus a balcony. I'm surprised I could even afford something like this, but my job did pay well. I was living an amazing life with half of my closet being free designer clothes that I managed to get. The benefit of this area was that I was only a 10 minute walk from my office and a 2 minute walk from Central Park.
------
Shutting the door behind me. A cool breeze from the air conditioner welcomed me. Crap! I forgot to turn it off. I set my Prada bag down on my coffee table and removed my pair of Chloe's. I made my way to bathroom to have a quick shower.

25 minutes later I stepped out of the shower and put on a pair of panties and a loose shirt. I always walked around in my underwear, nobody was gonna see me. I shuffled my way to the living room to catch up on some episodes of Grey's Anatomy.

I fell right onto the couch, with a loud thump echoing. What a fat ass I am.

When the daylights fading were gonna play in the dark,

till it's golden again.

And now it feels so amazing can't see it coming,

and well never grow old again.

Oh Crap! Who's calling me now? My phones in the kitchen and I'm too lazy to get it. But what if it's important like Delia is dying or something. Wait no that's good news. Okay maybe not, but it still could important.

I drag my feet into the kitchen and lazily get my phone from the kitchen counter.

1 new message; 6:45 pm

Michelle- Sophie! Hey, Max and I are going to Cielo later we want you to come. Please! I really want to spend more time.xx

Damn! Cielo was the best club in the city, but Max being in a band he could get into anywhere. I though about it, It was friday and I didnt have work tomorrow. Ihesitantly grabbed my phone and replied.

To Michelle-Yea sure, I don't have anything else to do. But we have an issue I'm only 19 and I lost my fake I.D. xx

I know, I know I'm not British to put the kisses at the end but I couldn't help but do it back.

You'll find us chasing the sun.... Oh shut up! I quickly put my phone on vibrate.

Michelle- No problem babe. Since were going with Max they wont even ask us for I.D. Meet us at our hotel were staying at Gansevoort. Im sending a car for you at 7:45 to meet us. Good? xx

I looked at the clock ontop of the tv, it was 6:54, that was plenty of time.

To Michelle- That's fine. See you soon. xx

With that I ran I to my room and started doing my hair. My hair was naturally straight but had lots of volume so I decide on curling it. I also decided on going with a "natural" look of only wearing eyeliner with fake lashes. Hence the "natural" look because of the lashes. I never wore huge lashes, just small ones to make my eyes look brighter.

40 minutes later, I glanced at my phone. Damn it! It was already 7:36. I had 9 minutes to get out of the door. I pulled out a new pair of black matching lace panties and bra. I furiously pulled the doors open to my walk in closet.

I decided on a sand brown Colette sleeveless top, matched with black high wasted shorts from Barney. I went over to where my shoes and decided on wearing sand brown Jeffrey Campbell's. To accessorize I wore a navy blue ring with brown bracelets. On my way out I forgot that I needed my purse, I dashed to my room glancing up at the clock it was 7:45. Who gives a damn, the driver wont die from waiting for a minute. The first thing that I grabbed was my black Chanel. With that I ran out the door.
-----
I shut the door right behind me to be greeted by a man waiting by a black Mercedes. He was probably waiting for me.

"Evening Ms. Leigh."

"Evening." I plastered a smile across my face and got into the car. Two minutes into the car ride and I decided on sending a text to Michelle.

To Michelle- Babe. I'm 8 minutes away see you soon. xx

I scanned over the message satisfied and pressed send. I decided to kill time and tweet.

@Sophie_babe ; Excited for tonight haven't been out in forever. Out with the babe @michkeegan.

I pressed the home button and saw that Michelle replied.

Michelle- Are you guys lesbian or something. Babe? Really. Couldn't it just been Mich or something. Nah I'm joking love, she said okay. -Max

I couldn't help but giggle to myself.

To Michelle- Awww is Max getting jealous that I'm steeling his girl? ;) xx

I suddenly felt a sudden jolt. I looked out the window and I saw that we were here. The door suddenly flew open and the driver was there obviously with a fake smile. I stepped out and gave him a fake smile in return.

" Have a good night Ms. Leigh." with that he walked back into the car and drove off. I glanced down at my phone and saw a new message.

Michelle- Never! Were on floor 7 room 516 just in case you didn't know. xx

I made my way into the lobby and was suddenly mesmerized by it, it was so elegant and sophisticated. I always knew that they had a lot of money and to be honest I wasn't bothered by it. I only hated those divas with a lot of money.

-----
Hesitantly I knocked on the door waiting for someone to open in. 30 seconds later the door flew open to revel a blonde slightly taller than me.

" Hi?" I said in a rather questionable voice.

" You must be Sophie. I'm Kelsey, come in." Kelsey stood aside to let me in. I emmidaitly took in my surroundings, this wasn't a normal hotel room it was a mother fucking penthouse. You know the ones you saw in the movies. Well this place was even bigger.

Kelsey deciding on dragging me into the kitchen and giving me a vodka red bull. She gave me my drink and sent into the stool next to me, I did the same.

This was awkward.

I deciding on starting the conversation. " So Kelsey, do you know Michelle?" I questioned while sipping my drink.

Her eyelashes fluttered. I decided to take in her features. She was tall with long blonde hair and an amazing smile. I also couldn't help but notice she had an amazing pair of legs. My guess is that she was probably a dancer or an athlete. She wasn't like the a lot of plastic blondes, she had a small amount of makeup and still looked gorgeous. I felt like a piece of nothing compared to her and Michelle.

" Yea, well Mich and I are super close. I'm Toms girlfriend. Were all here." With that I assumed she ment the rest of the band and their girlfriends. I thought that it was only Max and Michellle in the city. I guessed wrong.

" Oh okay, are you guys here on vacation or something?"

" Yea, the guys just finished their mini tour in the U.K. so well decided to take a vacation together."

"So that's why Mich is in town."

" Yea, what she's told me in the past two hours you guys seem to be close, huh?

Before I could reply, out of the bathroom came a long " Babeeeeee" I looked behind Kelseys shoulder to see another guy stood there. He had short black hair, fair skin, and a strong roman nose. He was wearing dark wash jeans with a plain white top and a black leather jacket. Accompanied with a pair of white vans.

Kelsey stood up and went to stand by his side and drag him to meet me I presume. " Sophie Leigh this is my boyfriend Tom Parker. I stood up to give him quick handshake instead, he chose to take me into his embrace.

" Love I don't do handshakes ." I giggled and smiled while pulling away. The three of us sat down waiting for the rest to be ready.

15 minutes later of getting to know Kelsey and Tom I learned that Tom was from Bolton and he told me all the stories from his scars such as how the one on nose came from a chicken pox that he peeled off.

Kelsey was from London and was currently a dancer with her own organization K2K. I was right I knew she was a dancer. I also learned that they were dating for a year and two months now. Great! Everyone had a great love life except me.

"Sophie!" I turned to see Michelle standing with 6 other people.

A certain one caught my eye.
