"Alright, five minutes until we launch!" I shout.
After Piper confessed to using fake clothing and trying to sabotage my company, my company has been back on the road.
Today we launch my summer line, Sophia Rivera Designs aims for women to feel comfortable and beautiful in what they wear. We focus on comfort, quality, and style.
I hope everyone likes this line, I think it's my favourite line since I've become a designer.
"Sophia, have a minute?" Hayley asks me as I put my coffee down.
"Yeah, What's up?"
"For tonight's party, the hotel is booked." Shoot.
"Where else are we going to find a hotel?" I think but Hayley gives me that 'You know' look.
"What?" I ask her and she looks out the glass window, pointing directly at McKay Industries building with her pen, smirking.
"No." I shake my head and she frowns.
"Come on Sophia!" I continue shaking my head in disapproval.
"No. No. No."
"Sophia!"
"He won't let me pay for starters and then there's the media, they already think something is going on between us, what message will I be giving if I host my launch party at one of his hotels?" I tell her.
"Since when do you care about the media?" Amyra walks up to us.
"Exactly." Hayley mumbles and I glare at her.
"Soph, where else are you going to find such a fine establishment?" she smirks.
Nope. Not happening.
"We'll figure it out. Just not Axton's hotel." I tell her and she rolls her eyes.
She grabs me by my shoulders.
"Listen to me young lady, you have no bloody choice. Plus, Crowne Plaza is an exquisite hotel, it's the best in New York. So you better call your lover boy and tell him to reserve a suit for you. This moment. Or so help me God Sophia I will take my Louis Vuittons out and beat your ass with them." she says in her 'Mom voice'.

I continue looking at her and she tilts her head.
I sigh.
"Get me my phone," I tell Hayley.
"You're good," she tells Myra and she smiles while I roll my eyes.
"Sixty seconds till we launch!" one of my employees yell and I look at the countdown on the screen.
"I'm so excited for you!" Amyra wraps her arms around me.
"Thank you, Myra, thank you for supporting me too," I tell her, because honestly if I didn't have her, I'd probably given up a long time ago.
"You're welcome!"
"Ten seconds!" Hayley yells as she hands me my phone.
Nearly everyone in the office starts counting down.
I smile when they reach one.
"Good job everyone! I'm so proud of all of you!" I tell them.
"See you guys at the party tonight, at the Crowne Plaza," I tell them as they walk out of our development room.
"I have to take off, but congratulations! Don't kill anyone when planning that wedding okay?"
"Can't make any promises." I frown and she shakes her head walking out.
I walk out of the development room and into the elevator."
I get out, walking into my office, where I see a lot of flowers.
Smiling, I take up the off-pink bouquet, already knowing it's from Axton, there's a jewelry box too. Opening it I find a chain, with a tiny star. I smile knowing what it means.
When we were around fifteen, my family was going camping and I was terrified, the fact that Axton wasn't going because he was sick, made it even worse. I was scared of the dark so he told me that it wasn't going to be dark, the stars would light up my surroundings. It helped, every time I felt scared of the darkness, I looked up at the sky and felt safe. It was summer at the time, so one of my shirts from this line had stars on them, it was actually Axton's idea. So this chain and stars in general meant a lot to me.

I take the card up.
Just like stars, you bring light to people's lives
-Axton
I smile at the writing. He's so sweet.
I take my phone up to call him but he doesn't answer. I frown.
Stop it, Sophia, you're seeing him in half an hour.
I look at the other flowers and cards, taking pictures and thanking the senders on Instagram.
Finally, I read the last card that came with white roses, obviously from Jace.
I take a picture, posting it on my Instagram story, thanking him. To which he immediately replied with;
I didn't send you those soph, you have a secret admirer.
Kidding, you're welcome.
I chuckle at his response before grabbing my bag and flowers, walking out of my office and into the elevator.
I get out of the elevator, walking through the lobby of my office, there are roses, balloons, cakes, all over.
I'm truly thankful for my supporters.
"Hayley, can you open the door for me?" I ask her as she laughs, walking up to me and opening the door.
"Thank you. See you tonight." I tell her and she smiles.
The paparazzi rush up to me as I walk through the doors.
"Sophia, is Axton and Piper still getting married?"
"You're new line is amazing. Good work."
"Who are the flowers from?"
"Is Piper invited to your launch party tonight?"
"When is your next line launching?" Woah, chill.
I somehow make my way to the car, getting in my phone rings.
"Hey Hayley, is this important?" I ask her, hoping it's not.
"We have three magazines asking for an interview, and four talk shows, make that five, in line for an interview. You have to choose two," she says and I internally scream.
"Send the listings," I tell her as I hang up.
My phone vibrates and I literally scream what now? Gaining a very concerned look from Marty.
Unknown_000: Good job on your new line, looking forward to celebrating tonight, in a spectacular way.
Huh?
