Tiffany
Hearing about the breakup of Lucy and Noah apparently made it okay for me to go on the show even though she was still going to be there. A lot of things were shaking in Hollywood currently and my company didn’t want to shake more.
That didn’t mean that I didn’t keep my righteous anger about everything though. I was still very mad over their actions and the decision they made without involving me. Since Josh represented my company for me, he has been the one getting the blunt of my disapproval about what they did.
I was backstage at a talk show, still not talking to Josh. “What do you want me to do? Clean your tears and apologize for something which I have no control over besides you are both his ex so I don’t see the reason why you should still hate the show. You were excited for the show before you knew who that particular housemate is…” When I raised an eyebrow he corrected himself. “Well as much as a woman of your complexities can be. Tiffany, you have to give this a chance and I mean a real chance okay because we both know how your half chance look like and bitchy you is not something you should show on that reality tv.
“A show that runs for two weeks, my free two weeks break. How do you expect I would take the work before and also I will be walking with other stars and their touchy egos, I don’t see how this would be nice. ” I replied Josh who frowned as he rubs his eyebrow.
“I think I prefer you being silent.” He mumbled and I gave him the stink eye.
“I don’t understand why I am being made to wait.” I gritted out as I thought about spinning on my heels and leaving this damn interview behind.
“You are being made to wait so that they will wrap up the former interview.” Josh answered me for what seems to be like the tenth time within an hour frame, him providing me that answer doesn’t seem to work for me as I am still angry.
“Places people. Tiffany, you go on in ten seconds.” A technical member of the unit said as I scoffed.
Finally! I don’t remember the last time I was made to wait for something in the show business. Everybody waited for me not the other way round.
When the cue was given, I strut to the stage as if I can buy the place and I know it. Maybe I could buy the place for fun and giggles because I could. I don’t really check my finances anymore, I was content with the thought that whenever I want to get something, my money can afford it.
“Hello Jerry.” I greeted the host with a tilt of my chin in return to his wide smile. His smile reduced an inch but I scoff. When will these showbiz people realize that I am not like any other star and get it in their heads? Men greeted them with a handshake and a one arm hug while ladies with air kisses and quite frankly I prefer the guys’ mode of greeting. I will not look silly trying to kiss the air all in the name of going with the flow.
“Well, I have a second guest here tonight, I know it is a surprise but I think you folks at home will love this.” Jerry went on as it became my turn for my eyes to narrow an inch. What was this man trying to pull?
“I give you all Lucy Banks. Come out here Lucy.” A familiar red head came into the makeshift stage where I was already seated. I looked towards my manager who didn’t inform me that I would need to play nice to a fellow star on the show. Well this one was certainly not someone I have worked with but her face look familiar.
When I saw Josh face red and yelling at somebody, I knew that this was not planned by my company.
“Hello Tiffany, hello Lucy.” Jerry started, rubbing his palms together. “It is an honor to have both of you here together, allowing this to be the first exclusive anyone has gotten neither of you since the new break up.”
“Break up? Was I dating someone on the net and I was not aware of it?” I asked the host with confusion in my gaze. This was getting weirder by the second.
“No, not you. Lucy was.” Jerry stated.
“Then why am I being included in her break up?” I asked this time, getting angry. I will walk off, no matter if the cameras are still rolling. It has happened before and I can do it again.
“Because she is the person who was dating Noah.” Lucy responded before facing me. “And your fellow contestant in the reality show coming up.”
“Oh.” Was what came out of my mouth, I relaxed back into my seat and looked at Josh again to see him just outside the line if the cameras which were filming this pre reality show moment. He looked stressed out and angry. Normally Josh always look angry, managing me was not an easy task but one he manages well but this type of anger was not the normal one. Those one was the one which stated that he was minutes away from bursting a blood vessel and when he kicked something in anger, I changed my minutes to seconds.
“So Miss Tiffany, I can assume that from your expression, you were not aware of the extra guest. Seems like your company heads kept you out of the loop.”
“Well. Let’s hope that it all it is because if it isn’t you might find yourself out of a job.” I responded and when Jerry smile turned to a frown I smiled but I didn’t recall my words.
“So I will leave the small questions of why the break up happened to the gossips rags. What I am interested in is why Noah releases a new song when he is heartbroken. So his teams says.”
“You are asking the wrong people Jerry.” I drawled. “Maybe you should call his agent and ask them this time”
Jerry laughs, same as Lucy.
“Okay but I would like to play his song for the both of you, so that you can tell the audience behind the lyrics. Maybe it will give us an insiders scoop on how Noah’s mind works.
“Sure.” Lucy nodded as they played the only of Noah’s song which I have listened to. The first ever one he released with the bands and also the latest ones too.
“Drugs, women. No loyalty.” I replied at the end of the song.
“Come on Tiffany, give us something better.” Jerry said as I rolled my eyes.
“I did give you something at all. You should be okay with that.” I stared down at jerry. “Why are we even discussing Noah?”
“Because he will be one of the men in the reality tv series.” Jerry answered.
I couldn’t hide the shock in my gaze, I turned to look at Josh to see he was sporting a replica image of my shock on his face.
“Now, unto the next song. Lucy, it is your turn.” After they giggled and exchanged small talks and worships, they started to play Noah music.
It was our song but seriously modified. Instead of events we wanted to do, the song was filled with events which we did. I was dumb founded and my guards went down. For a brief second, my guards went down. On national tv and a show which more than half of California was watching life.
“Are you okay?” Jerry asked me confused but I just stood up and walked off stage. Josh followed behind me until we got to the car.
“Get me out of here Josh, I can’t breathe,”
“Josh, didn’t blink an eyelid as he scrambled to do what asked.
TiffanyTwo hours later, I had downloaded all of Noah’s song and I was listening to them while getting drunk, he bared himself out for the public to see. That was why he was loved. It was years ago but I could feel the words as he sang them, I could hear the emotions. I watched one of his stage performance for the only soft song on his first album released and when he got to the chorus for the last time and everything changed and became more emotional. He had tears in his eyes as he sang from the heart and that was when my tears started.I did that to him. He was singing of our past, he was singing about us and how I wrecked him. I was aware of the fact that I did ruin what we had but that stage performance made me realized how far the hurt went.“Tiffany, you should stop tormenting yourself with this.” Josh said unable to keep quiet anymore. Yes you might have fucked up then but you are human, humans make mistakes all the time.”
Eight years agoTiffany.The day I realized I love Noah was when he was singing to me, it was a usual occurrence but it was magical for me when he first did it and it has never stopped being magical.“You know when you put your hand under your chin and listen to me like that, you make me feel like I am the most accomplished singer in the world.” Noah teased me after he sang the last lines of this song and put away his guitar only to look at me and see that I still had my chin in my hands as I stared at him with a mixture of awe on my face. Yes I know how I look because he brought a mirror one day to show me what I look like whenever he sings for me.“You will be.” I tell him with all conviction. “In little to no time you will have hordes of fans screaming your name, just don’t forget about me then.”He laughs. “Why will I forget about my number one fan? You will always be that for me.” He sighed.
NoahI don’t know how to act. I might disgrace myself further. I could be sick. I would not be able to concentrate well on my music. Every and any excuse I could think of, I had given to my Label CEO. He refused to listen to any, already had an airtight answer for every of my worries. So that was how I found myself dressed in all black on my way to the mansion in Beverly Hills where I will be under house arrest for the next two weeks.“You are sulking like a baby and you will be in a house filled with gorgeous ladies. Yeah I can totally see the reason why you are not happy.” Ernie rolled his eyes at me sarcastically.“Yes. You seem to forget that two out of those women are my exes and I am not a fan of others infringing on my space, I will have no privacy for the next couple of days.” I complained as Ernie shook his head at me.“It is better that you don’t have privacy right now, when you have nine othe
TiffanyOn getting to the sitting room of the mansion, I stared around in marvel. I love this house but it was never meant to be. If I had seen this house before the reality show, I would do my best to try and procure it. The décor was something which was amazing. White, the couch, the chairs, down to the small stool at the center of the room and the cute ornament on it. I was in love with something which would have been mine if life was different.Story of my life.Through the corner of my eyes I looked at the person who would have been mine even though I still love him. My Noah has not changed in the four years we broke up. He was still his chivalry self even I could tell that the girl hanging close to him was trying his patience. I gave it two hours before he say something. Normally someone like her was not his type but since she was his serious relationship less than three months ago then I guess that his tastes has changed.&nb
NoahI feel suffocated, and this is annoying because when we were in a relationship, seeing Lucy was something of a miracle, she made seeing her harder than seeing the queen and yet I had no problem with it then.Looking back at our past relationship, I can’t help but wonder what me of then was thinking about this girl, how on earth did I becomes so serious with her, she played me like a fine tuned instrument and I still cannot understand it.“Can someone take this over grown puppy away from me?” I growled in direction of the dining table where various house guests like us where already seated and chatting among themselves. Everybody paused their conversation and stared at me.“I know I did something which I was not supposed to do but you have no right to talk to me that way?” Lucy tone was filled with hurt.“Really?” I asked her. “I don’t? Then please stop exhibiting characteristics of
Tiffany.“Are you serious, I was put in a house with a bunch of strangers to play board games?” I asked with horror showing in my voice.“We can play adult games if you want?” Toby offered.My lips curled in disgust. “Honey you would not pay me enough to even act like I want your company around.” I retorted as Cody coughed into his hand turning his snicker into a cough at the last minute.“What is your own? You are too good to play board games with us.” Lucy snarks.I sighed, these people never learn, they will not beat me in a word fight. “No, I just think I don’t have enough knowledge in playing games, at least not with people who have the guts to play with others hearts.” I smiled at Lucy who looked like a fish with her mouth, opening a closing with no words coming out of them.“Okay guys. Let’s settled d
Unknown pov.I came here to be with her, to learn how she tick and to be possibly more with her, I want her more than I want my next breathe but I have to go slow, slow and steady as they say win the race and I cannot afford to lose this one. She is going to be mine and then we will leave happily ever after. You know, just like they do in the movies.She will be catered for and taken care of all through her life when she goes for me. And yes when I do say when I mean that. No is not an answer I am willing to take, she doesn’t have a choice in this matter.I was planning the extreme, kidnap her, lock her up somewhere with me and reprogram how she thinks but when this opportunity fell into my laps, I realized that I was a fool if I was not going to grab it head on. So I did and I get to watch her without being seen as weird or labelled a stalker.I do hope she likes the gift which I
NoahLucy is one of the most annoying people I have ever met. This I know it true before, what I didn’t know is the extent she would take her malice to.“So Tiffany, I heard you cheated on Noah. Why did you do that?” Lucy started as the table went silent. “Are they just rumors or is it true?” Lucy tried to do her innocent act but everybody was already aware of her true nature. None among us fell for it anymore. At least they learnt quicker than I did.“Oh they are true.” Tiffany smiled. “Me and Noah had a nasty fight the night before and I was not myself when I did that. What’s your excuse?” Tiffany asked Lucy who froze.“Excuse me?” Lucy angry voice answered Tiffany.“Cool your jets, I do realize that you didn’t cheat on Noah, no. you just used him, what prompted those actions. I mean for you to use him, you deliberately set out to do that. That makes you more of a bitch than me.
