Noah
I got to my apartment, tired and weary thoughts about writing new music and not just any kind of music but dope ones filled my head and when the door swing opened, I smiled while I realized that Lucy was probably here and possibly cooking.
Maybe I will not remain angry with her. I rounded off to the kitchen where I can almost always guarantee to find her, there was always something about kitchens that Lucy loves.
Getting closer, I started hearing voices, not like I was expecting her to be here with company but it will be a pleasant surprise if she is. Normally it was the guys who were relunant to introducing their friends to the girl they were dating but in me and Lucy relationship, it was the opposite. Probably because I didn’t have any friend here and Lucy wouldn’t be caught somewhere which is not in the map for something spectacular, even if I was hosting a show there. Now her case was different. She has the friends but she still just gloss their stories over. I mean she is up and coming but I have being with her for close to five months now and if you knew me and the way I have been selective since the Ice queen, then you would know that this is my second longest relationship post Tiffany.
“I honestly cannot believe that guy, why would I want to show up in his party as his arm candy.” Lucy scoffs as I paused in my strides just before I rounded the corner that will put me in direct eye sight with the whole kitchen.
Someone replied and that was how I knew that she was having a conference call on zoom. “Probably because you are supposed to be his girlfriend. Just put the poor boy out of his misery and allow him to dress you up like Barbie, you love that shit.”
“Yes but it wouldn’t say much for my career.” Lucy argues.
“What career, the one you are building up using his name? It doesn’t matter if you don’t act like a serious person for one night, it doesn’t matter if you act like a bubble head for just one night, keyword here being the one night, people will still take you seriously.” I rested my head against the door as I felt the headache increasing.
“Hey, you make it sound like I am using him or something I am not. I have to reschedule a lot of things and start being in the spotlight for things I don’t want to be because of him. I am giving back to this relationship as much as he is and the only thing that is enjoyable with him is the gifts and the sex.” Lucy returns.
“Honey, he thinks you love him, you are using him. There are no two ways about it. So at least there must be something you have gained right?”
“My huge fan base and the reality show which I have in the bag since I have signed the contract.”
“I thought you were just complaining about not being that kind of girl?” the person asked.
“Yes but it is like free cash one and two, I have the fan base to win, well Noah fan base, they will certainly support the current girl friend to the ex.”
“Lucy…” The person said warningly.
“What? Imagine a little nobody like me wins against the Ice queen, imagine what new heights I would be reaching in no time.”
And with those vile words from Lucy, I couldn’t stay quiet anymore, I pushed off the wall and stalked into the kitchen. “Congratulations Lucy.” I said softly as she jumped.
“Oh god, Noah. Don’t scare me that way again, when did you get home?” she asked, giving me a warm smile. A smile I fell for because I thought it was genuine but now I know, there is a difference between warm and genuine.
“I got home just in time to hear you admit to using me Lucy.” I replied and when she stared at me in shock. I shrugged like it was no big deal.
“I mean come on. All is fair in love and war right, you can use me to gather your serious fan base but there is something wrong with your plans. You will never win against Tiffany.” That got a reaction out of her, just a small glare but still it was a reaction.
“By the end of today, both of you would have been my exes and she has a larger fan base dedicated to her and her actions, not people who follow you because they are just concerned about the person you are fucking. I wonder how many fan I can make you lose before the show officially starts.”
“You would not dare…” Lucy started her face getting red
“There are so many things that I would do right now under the pretense of being hurt and used. And I do have the right fodder for that.” I responded.
“Noah, be reasonable…” Lucy started and somehow that just rubbed me the wrong way.
“Be reasonable, you mean the way you were when you decided to play with me. You used me Lucy and here I was glad that somebody would finally take Tiffany place, guess what, you are not even a quarter of her, and you are not worth even being in her presence.”
Her eyes narrowed into a full blown glare. “You sound like you still like her.”
“I do.” I nodded. “My standards have fell since her.
Lucy mouth drops open at that. “You have no right Noah.”
“Don’t let the door hit you on your way out of my life.” I told her as I turned to leave the kitchen.
“Noah, don’t you dare compare me with her. She was a whore…”
“Exactly… and she has more class than you.” I returns. “Don’t let me see you here when I return, you can remain if you are interested in making the evening news in a sight that will not be favorable to you for your well crafted life.”
Time for me to get drunk, it seems like maybe I am cursed to a life of stardom and no love life.
Four years ago.NoahIt has been two weeks since I walked out of Tiffany with no hopes for reconciling ever again… in other words, it has been two weeks of utter hell. I have learnt the trick to getting some sleep, I have to exhaust my body to the point where all I wish for was a bed, that works like a dream because when I started to do that, my dreams were no longer haunted with dreams of Tiffany while she was being kissed and being thrust into. We were each other firsts. It might seem inconsequential now, especially with me wondering how many other guys she has been while she was with me and how many guys she has been with since I was gone.The paparazzi’s have been having a field day, we went from being nowhere to everywhere on gossip rags. I guess our actions did not help that. I was sleeping with everything in a skirt and she has been partying every night, sometimes taking a guy or two home.We both
NoahAfter carrying out my promise to Lucy by tweeting to my fans about my recent break up, I got drunk in the comfort of my home but when I woke up with my head banging, I had the itch to write something down. It was not my usual kind of writing but if it was worked well on, it could be charts topping.And so after finding a pen and paper, I started my scribbling. I was still scribbling hours later when I yawned, raising my head from the paper to see that my manager, Ernie, was in the room with me.“When did you get here?” I asked him, shocked at his appearance in my home, something which he doesn’t do too often anymore.“About two hours ago, you have been scribbling like a fiend, I am sure that your coke has not lost some of its coolness though. He tossed a drink at me.I snatched it out of the air. “Thanks man.” I opened the drink, took a sip and close my eyes.“Noah, this Brea
TiffanyHearing 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
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
