A cocky, fashionable brunette walks into an exotic living room and sits on a majestic couch as maids dote on her every word and move.
Introducing NOELLE HOLLSBURY, only child and heiress to the HOLLS MOVIE MAKING INDUSTRY.
The enigmatic, lively, and charismatic young popstar and actress is the talk of her generation and the mogul of everything GenZ entertainment.
"Miss Hollsbury, Chanel called earlier today you've got a fitting by 12pm sharp." Noelle's Personal Assistant, Mary, said as she scrolled through the tablet containing Noelle's schedule from now till next year.
"Does it clash with any event?" Noelle hums, holding two shades of pink, deciding which she likes.
"But.....you did get an email from THE STARLIGHT AWARDS FOUNDATION for nominee for best actress award of the year." Mary replied.
"Oooh....looks who's trying to be fashionable!" Noelle snorted into her phone, not listening to a word being said.
"Miss Hollsbury, Everitt Yves is here." A maid said, "Not him again!" Noelle mumbled, rolling her eyes in annoyance as Noelle's simp of a boyfriend, Everitt, a blonde white pale skinned 5'8" guy strolled in holding chocolates and flowers.
"Good morning, my beautiful, talented cupcake." He cooed as he handed the flowers to a maid who took them away.
"Flowers and Chocolates. What's this.....Valentine's?" Noelle sarcastically asked.
"You're nominated for best actress award of the year. You're definitely gonna win it, my love. I brought some gifts for pre-celebration." He cooed as he sat beside her, placing a hand on her shoulder."
"Chocolates and flowers as a pre-celebration gift? Try a Birkin and a weekend in Hawaii." Leslie, Noelle's best friend and No2 mocked, rolling her eyes.
"Noelle, check out this green outfit set." Leslie awed as she sprinted to Noelle's side, shoving Everitt to the side.
"The set's great, but green is lame, so Eilish and I hate Eilish." Noelle rolled her eyes dismissively.
"Yeah.....of course....Green's trash." Leslie scoffed, faking a mean laugh as she sat down.
"Ooh Les....party at 5pm this eve....whaddaya say?" Noelle cooed. "Duh....it's Christmas, best time for party's and boys and s*x," Leslie giggled, and Noelle laughed agreeably.
"s*x?" Everitt said, staring at Noelle questionably. "Oh...Everitt Booboo, you're still here. That wasn't meant for your ears." Noelle cooed, mocking his usual tone.
"You're still sleeping around? Everitt asked, pained.
"Everitt sweetheart, I've explained to you so much, I literally lose braincells whenever I have to. We're in an open relationship. I can sleep around...so can you." Noelle shrugged uncaringly.
"But I love you....y'know I can't do that to you." Everitt said pleadingly.
"Booboo, I've gotta get ready for five 'kay. We'll talk about whatever aches in your heart some other time." She rolled her eyes, swatting him away like a fly and shooing him.
"See you at the party." He said expectantly as Noelle hummed, paying no attention.

5PM
Noelle, Lisa, and a few other girls arrive at the party, and everyone hollers, hailing and 'hi'-ing them.
"Papi...bar table." Lisa whispers to Noelle, who eyes the guy, licking her lips.
"Have fun, ladies. I'm pretty occupied." She purrs, walking up to the bar table as the girls walk away.
"Hey bartender, gimme a fancy martini, pink umbrella's please." She coos sitting and fixing her hair, showing off her expensive pink purse. "You famous or something?" The guy beside her asks. "Who wants to know?" She purrs seductively.
"How about I buy you a drink and we talk?" He smiled at her. "Martini, pink umbrellas" she answered with a smirk.
"I'm Reggie." He introduced. "Noelle." She matched his tone.
The bartender served the drinks, one scotch and a martini.
"So you are famous." He chuckles. "You know your celebrities." Noelle applauded lightly.
"How about we skip small talk and go to your place, or a hotel whichever you prefer.... we both know we're not here for small talk" Noelle said, authoritatively, staring in his eyes, waiting for his agreement.
"Why not!" He groaned, downing his drink,and dropping a $5 bill for the barman as they left.
#######
"Sooo.....this is your place" Noelle snorted, mocking the inferior decor.
"Sorry its not up to pampered princess standard" He scoffed, closing the door and taking off his jacket.
"What job do you do?" She asked, going through his pictures. "I edit videos and music. it's not a big entertainment job...but I get some good gigs, I get by well enough. I doubt we came here to profile me." He stated, Noelle raising her head to meet his hungry eyes already devouring her body.
"No we did not." She replied, matching his hunger as she ripped the buttons of her top open, exposing her expensive lacy bra and jumped on him.
#####
"So...I should be going, I'm getting late for my midnight skincare routine" Noelle chuckled, dressing up. "You influencers and your skincares" Reggie chuckled, his deep voice resounding in his small bedroom. "Quaint house you got here. Not my style but Quaint." She chuckled, packing her purse and reapplying her makeup.

"Miss Noelle." A maid greeted, as Noelle walked in, going straight for her room upstairs.
Slumping on her bed, she looked through her phone at Leslie's i********: story.
"You guys look silly 🥱" She commented, rolling her eyes at their absurdly silly pictures.
"At least we're having fun.🙄" Leslie replied her comment.
Noelle frowned, so much for friendship.
She knew she had no real friends. They all cared about her money and fame, and that she had a lot of.
"Miss Hollsbury, your father wants you to attend a board meeting tomorrow, for the signing in of a new actress. It's strictly official " Mary's email came in. Noelle scoffed and rolled her eyes, ignoring the text.
"It's not a request, he demands it. No excuses." She sent again.
She groaned, her voice cracking on the edge of sobbing. Her parents; especially her father, expects so much, and she has nobody to talk to. Nobody really cared, and Noelle knew that.
