Taylor Portwalt

4 months later..

"Amazing" I smiled looking at my customer wearing my design

"This is so beautiful, thankyou!" She squealed as she turned around looking at the mirror

"Congratulations on your engagement once again" I said and she smiled

"Thankyou, you made my day tomorrow. This is so beautiful and I just can't stop looking at it" She spinned around

"Glad that you like it, it's an honour to make this dress for you"

"Oh don't be silly, this is so beautiful. I never dissapointed with your works" She walked to me and held my hand

"Thankyou, this is so beautiful" She squealed again and I chuckled

"No problem"

"Oh and Taylor, I want to treat you lunch. Is it okay? I just want to thank you for this" She looked at me smiling

"That will be great but I won't be here in LA for a week. Next week?"

"Oh that's fine. I'll call you next week. By the way, where are you going?"

"New York, got to attend my dad's friend's party"

"Oh okay, thankyou so much" She squealed again and I helped her to open the dress. I wrapped the dress and put it into a box. I escorted her out from my place. I can't help but smile to see her that happy wearing the dress that I made

"You're ready?" Nial entered my office and I nodded

"You sure you want to come? You know who's going to be there right?" He asked

"My ex? So what?" I scoffed and he smiled

"That's my sister" He ruffled my hair

"The jet is ready?" I asked

"Yeah of course, mom and dad already on their way there. Let's go" He said and I took my bag putting my things inside and ready to go

"Let's go" Me and Nial got into the car and went straight to the airport. Going to see Christian again, won't be a big deal right? Breaking up with him without any words was painful. I got myself back after one and a half month of crying

"Hello pumpkin" I hugged my dad as we got into the plane. I plopped to the seat beside him

"How's the customer?" My mom asked

"She loves it!" I squealed

"That's what I thought, it's beautiful. You need more confident, Taylor"

"I know mom but I never thought her reaction will be like that"

"I'm proud of you pumpkin" My dad kissed the side of my head

"3 days in New York?" My bother asked my dad as he plopped beside my mom

"Yeah, I need to deal something with Aaron and Blake"

"Will you be okay?" My mom asked and I smiled

"I'm over it mom, I'm fine"

"Don't bring it up again mom" Nial said

"It's okay" I said and not long after that the plane took off. I decided to sleep in. I leaned to my dad more since he's so warm and cuddly

"Taylor.. pumpkin.. We're here" My dad slowly poked me. I opened my eyes and got up immediately. He put his arm around me dragging me out from the plane.

We immediately go to the house to prepare for the event tonight. I took a shower and walked out to the room in my robe. I looked at myself in the mirror

"Never fell for Christian Hastington again, Taylor. He dumped you and there's no going back again to his arms" I said to myself, trying to put that mindset in my brain

"He dumped you so you must teach him a lesson.. no.. Why would I? He's not up for me anymore. Why bother teaching him a lesson?" I sighed and decided to dry my hair. I curled the bottom parts of my long light brown hair.

I put on my make up on and put my necklace on. I put my earrings and bracellete too. I put on my tight spaghetti strap black dress, it has a low V cut on my chest and has a 3 cuts under it showing my skin. I looked to the mirror and told myself the same thing as before. I sighed and walked out from the room to gather with my family down at the lobby.

"You look beautiful" My mom said

"Thanks mom" I smiled

"I need to pay attention extra tonight" My dad said

"Don't worry about me, just take care of mom"

"Let's go" My brother said and I nodded. We walked to the car and got inside. I kept repeating things in my head about Christian. I need to be strong.

The distance from the hotel to the event venue felt so short, I felt nervous but I need to show him that I'm not affected.

"Let's go" My dad said and we walked inside the ballroom. There's a lot of people coming into this gathering event. We started to look around

"Taylor!" I turned to the right to see Crystal and Cailey. I squealed and walked to them. I hugged them both tightly

"I miss you" I said

"Me too"

"Me three" Crystal said and I chuckled

"So how are you?" Cailey asked

"I'm good"

"You look hot girl!" Crystal said and I smiled to her

"So how long will you be here in New York?"

"Around 3 days" I said

"That's perfect, I'm going to a fashion show tomorrow, wanna come?" Crystal asked

"Do you have the ticket?"

"I have 2 extra! Cailey will be there too along with Autumn" Crystal said

"It will be fun, we can go get our nails done too tomorow" Cailey said and I nodded excited

"Let's go to the center" Crystal linked her arm to mine and we walked to the center

"Hey Taylor" Matt said and I hugged him briefly

"Hey, how are you?" I asked

"Good"

"Matthew Lemiere" I turned to the side to see a handsome jet black haired guy called Matthew and unfortunately that guy came along with Christian. Christian looked at me from head to toe and I just smiled him

"Hey Gregory! Long time no see" Matt hugged the guy briefly and I felt my body burning with Christian's stare. The Gregory guy looked at me and I smiled to him

"Mine introducing Christian?" I turned to Christian smirking and he looked at me with a cold eyes

"I'm Gregory" The guy introduced himself

"Nice to meet you Gregory, I'm Taylor"

"He's one of the owners of Oxford and Cambridge University" Matt said and I turned to him

"Wow that's cool"

"Thankyou beautiful and by the way are you single?" Greg asked and I smiled turning my head to Christian

"Single, of course" I smirked and turned back to Greg
