Violet’s P.O.V

“You must be Violet.” I nearly jumped out of my skin. This beautiful voice broke me out of a trance of staring at the skyline. I'd always been in love with it and the view from here was spectacular.

“Uhh yes, that's me...” I trailed off not too sure what else to say without being rude.

“Sorry I didn't mean to scare you. I'm Mia, Cole’s sister. He hasn't shut up about you since this morning.” Mia babbled on sticking her hand out. “He mentioned you'd be here and I just thought id introduce myself. If you need anything just let me know, I'll be around all night.”

I shook her hand, surprised by the semi formalness, “That's...um..really sweet, I hope it was all good things.” I cursed myself at stuttering in front of his drop-dead gorgeous sister. She seemed familiar to me and I couldn't quite place how I knew her. “Thank you, I should be fine but I appreciate it.”

‘Nonsense, it's no problem. If you need anything just shout,” She giggled, “Of course and all good things. Well, I’ll leave to explore, I have to go check in with the dancers to make sure that they haven’t damaged their costumes and there are no issues...” Mia rolled her eyes before walking off.

I gathered that there was an underlying ‘Again’ despite this being the official opening night. “Bye was lovely meeting you,” I called out.

“You too! I’ll see you around.” She called back over her shoulder.

‘What to do now'..... I thought silently. I, despite wanting to stay up here and stare at the view for forever, knew I should probably go find Cole soon before he started to wonder if I ran off.

Taking one last glance at the skyline. I was about to turn around when I felt two large arms wrap themselves around my tiny waist. I squealed out in surprise.

“It's just me babe,” I felt Cole leaned down and whispered in my ear. “The view is beautiful from here, isn't it?”

“I love it so much. It's stunning. I've always loved the skyline here. It was my dream as a little girl to live here and see it.”

“I thought so too, which is why I made this whole floor all glass so that you can always see the view even though you’re inside.” I craned my neck back to look at him, he has this look in his eyes as he was staring out at the skyline. Something told me it meant more to him then he was telling me.

“We're about to open the doors so we should probably go downstairs. The VIP guests should be arriving soon as well.”

I just nodded, encaptured by the view still. I could vaguely see the reflection of Cole and I in the glass, I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel any butterflies. I just couldn't afford to feel this way about someone, not yet not after everything that happened. But there was something about Cole that made me feel safe, I guess that's why I've stuck around today.

My phone suddenly buzzed.

To: Vi

I’m outside of Limelight, there's a massive queue though. I have your outfit, I figured you'd probably want to put it on before all these people enter. So meet me outside?

-Georgie

I had somehow forgotten in all my excitement of exploring and just being with Cole that I hadn’t changed from what Georgie had leant me earlier for our lunch.

“Cole! I completely forgot, Georgie's here and she has my outfit and stuff. She said to just go meet her outside because there's a really massive queue.”

“Nonsense, send me a photo of Georgie and I'll have one of the bodyguards fetch her and bring her up here, then you can get ready and show her the beautiful view.”

“Really, thank you! That would be fantastic.”

Cole walked off to the side and phoned someone, I assume the bouncer he had sent to fetch Georgie.

I really didn't feel like dealing with the crowds outside again or having the chance of the paparazzi remembering I was the girl who came inside with Cole and trying to take my photo or something again. I sent a quick text to George so she wouldn't freak out when a massive guy came up to her to try to escort her somewhere.

To: Georgie

Cole said he's going to send a bodyguard to come fetch you and take you up to VIP to meet me. I'll see you now now. So don't freak out when a big dude comes to lead you somewhere. Love ya x

-Vi

To: Violet

Okay perfect thank you! I’ll see you now xx

-G

I got lost in the view again and before I knew it, I saw the elevator doors open and Georgie walked out. She looked like a supermodel. Honestly, I wasn't really surprised I mean she normally gorgeous but she looked especially stunning tonight.

Georgie was an up and coming model, shed worked on a few big projects, just recently shed done a shoot for Calvin Klein and I know she was booked to walk fashion week. She kept bugging me to come to some of her casting calls but I just wasn't too sure if that was me anymore. I did model for a while but that was a long time ago and I haven't worked since everything happened.

Georgie looked around, a look of awe crossing her face although she managed to mask it pretty well. She spotted me and hurried over. “ Oh my word, Vi! This place is amazing!” she exclaimed before pulling me into a massive hug.

“I said the same thing, the view is stunning isn't it?” I hugged her back just as hard.

“It really is, now let's get you into this outfit that I bought you. You're going to look absolutely stunning for this guy Cole, that I've yet to actually meet.” she raised her eyebrows with a slight smirk on her face.

“Yes, yes I know and you'll meet him just now. He was just here he must have disappeared off somewhere.” I said while looking around for Cole, “But let's go get changed, I'm dying to get out of these clothes.” I pulled Georgie off to the bathroom. Itching to start looking like I fit in here and that I wasn't some underdressed random girl.

Georgie was wearing a white lace intricate bra that led into a bodysuit, with black skinny jeans, a Gucci belt, and her brand new black, red-soled Louis Vuitton heels. Her hair was down in her natural curls. She had flawlessly done her makeup, it had been a passion of hers since she was a child and before her modeling career took off she was studying to be a high-end makeup artist and was wanting to create her own line. She had kept it mostly simple for her makeup tonight, with a beautiful blend of peach shimmer and a slightly darker brown causing a slight natural smokey-eyed look, her lips covered in a natural pink, and some contour.

Georgie had brought a completely black outfit. I put on a slightly flowy black shirt, with three-quarter sleeves, a deep v in the front and a strip of fabric across my neck. I tucked it into cross-over shorts and matched it with a pair of nude heels that had laces that wound elegantly up my ankles before tying in a neat little bow.

I pinned my hair up into a low bun, having gotten frustrated with it getting in my way all day and not wanted to become hot when I was dancing. Georgie touched up my makeup adding to my eyes by making a slightly darker smokey eye then what id been wearing, she brushed my face with contact powder, and touched up my blush and contour.

I looked in the mirror and I was super happy with how I looked. We both looked amazing. Honestly, I couldn't wait to see what Cole thought.

I looked down at my phone and realized we’d been gone for at least half an hour now. Cole was probably wondering where we were and after all his kindness to me today I didn't want him to think I had just bailed.

We walked out of the bathroom and I suddenly felt like everyone was staring. I know I looked pretty but Georgie looked drop-dead-gorgeous.

“Come on, let's go get a drink, I'm way too sober right about now,” Georgie said before grabbing my hand and dragging me to the closest bar. Which just so happened to be a few feet from us. The entire bar was also glass but it was lit up with a blue light that made it look like it was ice.

As Georgie was pulled me to the bar I spotted Cole and it seemed like at the same moment he spotted me. He was walking our way but stopped dead in his tracks for a few seconds before shaking his head and making his way over.

Cole’s P.O.V

I stepped away from Violet to call Cameron and tell him to get one of the bouncers and send her up here. While on the phone I got a text from Mia. One that once I read it I wished it wasn't true.

To: Cole

SOPHIA IS HERE... TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW SHE GOT IN NOW.

-Mia

“Fuck.” I cursed rather loudly but due to the music that was already playing no one heard me. I didn't want to leave Violet especially with that bitch here but I had to go sort it out and find out who I was going to fire for letting her in, especially when I had told them she wasn't allowed in under any circumstances.

Violet was entranced by the view again, I didn't want to disturb her and I knew that her friend would be up any minute so I hurriedly made my way to my owner elevator, that I had specially installed to go between floors so that Cameron, Mia and I, plus other important staff wouldn't have to constantly be trying to climb through the different floors and walking through hoards of people if we needed to get to a certain floor quickly. While texting Mia back.

To: Mia

Fuck! What floor is she on, I'm coming now.

-C

Mia quickly sent a reply back.

To: Cole

She's on 2nd. Giving the bouncers hell. Won't let her into VIP. Heading there now.

-Mia

‘I need to give the VIP bouncers a raise’, I thought quietly to myself. I pressed the second-floor button, it seemed like time slowed down for the elevator to finally get there, it felt like years when it was only a matter of seconds.

I frantically made my way to the entrance of the third floor, where the bouncers were holding back a pissed-off looking Sophia.

“I'm his Fiancé, I have access to the VIP area. Do you even know who I am?” Her screechy voice pierced my ears before I even got there. ‘I definitely need to give those bouncers a bonus for dealing with her’.

“Were under strict orders from the Wentworths not to let you in. You shouldn't have been allowed in the club.” I heard one of them grumbled angrily at her.

“Did you not hear me, I AM HIS FIANCÉ! Oh look there's Cole now, he’ll fire you for not letting me in just you watch!” Sophia then turned to me and in a voice that made my ears bleed she whined out, “Cole! Babe, they won't let me in. Please tell them that I'm allowed in.”

“Actually Sophia, they're right. You should not have been allowed in here and I'm planning on firing whoever made the dreadful mistake for doing so, while these fine gentlemen here definitely need a bonus for dealing with your annoying ass. We are over. Get that through your skull, or do you not understand and want me to get someone to bring you a dictionary. You know that book people look up the meaning-of-words in.” I growled, annoyed that she was really trying this shit tonight.

I mean did she have to cause trouble on my opening night? She could have done this any other time but no she had to do it now. I'm just grateful she didn't show up last night when I had all my VIP guests here and try to ruin the fashion show.

“Cole, baby I love you. We’re engaged. Why are you being so horrible.” She said her eyes welling up with tears. As if these petty little games were going to work on me. I was sick of her, her attempts of trying to manipulate people, her constant whining and forever wanting of attention and wanting to be in the media.

“We are not engaged! I never proposed to you, why would I ever want to get married to someone like you.” Okay so made I was being kind of harsh but she was trying to ruin my opening night and was lying by saying we’re engaged. As I finished yelling at Sophia, Mia showed up along with two massive security guards, which were on hand for situations just like this.

“You can take her now.” The guards picked Sophia up and started pulling her away despite her kicking and screaming.

“Cole, baby I love you! Put me down, I'm his Fiancé!” Along with a whole list of other really, rude words that one would say were not acceptable in polite society.

I turned to Mia, “Thank you, but I need to get back to Violet I'm sure she's wondering where I am.”

Mia just smiled, “you go get your girl.” She laughed and patted me on my back before I jogged off to the elevator hurriedly pressing the button for the top floor. I hope Violet doesn't think I ditched her or that she's upset with me.

The Elevator doors opened and I made my way to where I had last seen Violet, only to catch the eyes of her nearing to the bar on the other side of the room. I froze, my eyes glanced over her whole outfit. She looked insanely beautiful. In fact, beautiful doesn't even describe how amazing she looked. The only thought going through my head was ‘Wow!’. Before a few inappropriate thoughts started forming in my head, I shook my head trying to clear my mind, she wasn't that type of girl. She was something special and I wasn't going to blow that on a one night stand.

I finally seemed to gain control of my body again and made my way over to her.
