“Guys,” Axel calls, pulling me from my thoughts. He motions for us to join them. Finn and Oscar say hi to the computer then step aside for me.
“Hey, V.” Vanessa’s face fills half the screen, but my attention’s drawn to Sienna. Her blonde hair pulled up into a tight ponytail, her white blouse unbuttoned just enough, exposing the top of generous breasts. Sienna realizes I am staring at her now, her eyes quickly moving away when I glance at her.
“Holy shit Si, it’s Evan Wyld.” A male voice calls from the side, stealing her attention for a moment as she looks towards them, I see her punch the person in the arm which makes me laugh. Her green eyes come back and rest on me, her cheeks are pink from the action.
“You must be Sienna.” I want to tell her how beautiful I think she is and how that loser of an ex doesn’t deserve someone like her, but instead I smile as if she is just another fan. Is she blushing? I notice the pink color on her cheeks.
“Hi.” Derrick’s face fills the screen as he waves to us.
Vanessa pulls him away. “This is Sienna’s surprise, not yours.”
All I can focus on is Sienna’s beautiful smile as her two friends bicker. “I hear you’re a big fan,” I say, trying to grab Sienna’s attention back towards me.
“She not just a fan, she is a huge fan,” Derrick answers. “Especially of yours.” He adds at the last minute.
Sienna looks mortified at her friend’s admission. Embarrassment flushing her cheeks as the color runs up her neck and onto her face. She punches Derrick in the arm again, hard.
“What? You have Evan Wyld talking to you, Sienna. You’re a single lady now, just putting it out there.”
Now it was my turn to laugh; Derrick sounds like he would be fun to hang out with “I always want to please my fans, especially the beautiful ones,” I respond, dropping my voice low, and flashing her my dimples; the ones that make women’s panties magically disappear.
Sienna’s eyes widened as she bites her bottom lip.
“Are you boys set up?” Vanessa asks, breaking the connection between Sienna and myself.
“Yep, ready to go, V.” Axel answers.#p#分页标题#e#
Vanessa had asked us if we could sing a couple of songs for Sienna just to make her feel better. There was no way in hell I was going to say no to that request. We sing five songs for her and each word I sing, my eyes never leave her. All three of them stand and give us a standing ovation with whoops and laughter.
“Thank you all so much,” Sienna smiles, with tears in her eyes. Derrick puts his arm around her shoulder pulling her in close to him. “It’s been a shit day, and you all have made it so much better, Thank you.”
I wanted to reach through the computer screen and touch her. I wished it was my arm around her telling her everything would be okay. We all say our goodbyes; then they vanish.
Vanessa’s smiling face fills the screen again. “Thank you so much guys.” Her green eyes looking around at each of us. “Hold on, I have to move to the other room, I need to talk to you about something.”
We watch as the computer moves; we see white walls and Vanessa’s head bobbing as she walks. The sound of a door closing, and then Vanessa is back in front of the screen again.
“Sorry about that, I wanted to chat with you guys for a moment.”
We wait to hear what Vanessa has to say.
“Today was a terrible day for Sienna, so thank you for doing this.”
My protective instincts were on high alert.
“She just found out that due to some fuck up, she isn’t, or was never, technically married to Beau, so she’s been left with nothing in the divorce.”
My fists balled. What the fuck?
“And to make matters worse, because Beau bought everything they own through some family trust, they are kicking her out of her business after six years of hard work. If she goes quietly, they will pay her market value for the company, but if she makes a fuss they will close it down and fire everyone before Christmas. She built that boutique up to be the most exclusive boutique in Sydney. Derrick and Sienna developed and formed their styling business to be the most sought after celebrity stylists in Sydney.”
“What do you want us to do, V?” Christian asks, reading Vanessa the best.
“I know I can’t ask this, but we have the European tour coming up. I was just wondering if we could hire Sienna and Derrick so I can get her away from here.”
The room was silent, but all I could hear was my heart pounding.
“Yes.” I blurt out. The rest of the boys look at me shocked.
“For you, V, of course, we can always use an extra couple of hands around the place on tour.” Axel answers.
