《Desire ✓ - OLD VERSION》» Chapter Seventeen
Advertisement
I told Maryann that I would model her wedding dress for the fashion wedding runaway tomorrow .
Seth was distant he would come home and not even talk to me all day and would come out of his room for a important meeting barely giving me a greeting .
Olivia called me to her house so I can try on the main wedding dress she also told me that Hannah was modeling in the show too.
Once I reached Olivia's apartment I noticed there's about five girls walking around with brides dresses .
Olivia comes out with a measuring tape around her neck and a mannequin .
She sighs in relief as she drags me to my old room which I noticed she turned it into a designing room .
Desks adorned the walls with sowing machines and mannequins were cluttered against the walls .
About four girls were sowing frantically , fabrics all over the floor .
A phone rings and Olivia answers wiping sweat off her forehead .
" Yes ... Yes the dresses are getting ready Mrs Madden ... Mhmm... She's with me ... Yeah bye " Olivia hangs up and breaths heavily .
" I've been working my ass off since 5am and I cannot feel my fingers and my ears are ringing from these bratty models " Olivia says making me stand on a hard box measuring my waist .
" Could of called me I could've helped" I offered and Olivia snorts .
" Sorry but you can't sow for your life " Olivia says teasing and I rolled my eyes as she continues to measure me .

My feet were killing me one of Maryann's designers kept making me change shoes from , Gucci , Jimmy Choos to the whole chain of designer shoes .
" Position !" Maryann yelled and we got in position .
Basically I was the shortest of them all everyone was about 5'7 , 5'8 and up and I stood at 5'2 .
I spotted Hannah her head held up high a bright smile planted on her red coated lips and I noticed she kept shooting me glares once .
We walked in our six inch heels and I fought hard not to stumble .
" Lydia honey keep your head up " Maryann smiled softly at me and went back to a stern look as she shouted at the other girls .
After the walkway the girls kept shooting me glares and whispering but I ignored them .
Maryann was really hard on them except for me which kind of makes sense .
I heard squealing and giggling and furrowed my brows turning to see Seth walking in giving polite smiles fixing his Armani suit .
His eyes search the room and he walks towards me his face stern .
He comes and gives me a soft kiss on my cheek making my heart jump .
" I just came to tell you that I won't be home today " he whispers in my ears .
" Why ?" I ask feeling everyone's gaze on me .
" Don't worry about it " he says .
I remember the words on the doors in my room and opened my mouth to tell him about it but his phone rings .
" I'll call you tonight " he says answering the phone and leaving the room the girls following his every move .

Ethan called me asking me out on a date .
Surprisingly I said yes , because Seth won't be home all day and I didn't feel like staying in a huge house with nothing to do .

He took me to the boardwalk and won me a lot of prizes and we went on a a lot of rides and him barfing after it .
" Work is not the same without you - and oh! Abby had twin girls " Ethan smiles and I beam .
" I am so happy for her " I smile as we leave the board walk my arms were full of cotton candy and bears .
Ethan checks the time on his watch and frowns " I have to go to work soon but I had a great day today " Ethan grins and I smile .
" Me too " I say and his smile fades as his face comes closer and I back away my cheeks flushed .
Disappointment and hurt flashed through his eyes and I sighed .
" I'm sorry Ethan but I can't do this here paparazzi's-"
" I know I get it " he says as we stop two blocks from Seth's mansion .
I frowned leaning over giving him a small kiss on the cheek he gives a small smile .
" I'll call you soon " I say leaving his car .
Once I reached to Seth's door the lights were on and I wondered why since mostly all the staff goes home at 10:00 at night .
I entered closing the door softly I heard steps coming down the stairs .
I froze not believing my eyes right now .
There Hannah was standing there in a hot pink silk robe her hair a mess and make up smudged .
" Hannah your forgot your purse —" Seth stops as he spots me standing by the door .
This is going to be interesting ...
