"So no tropical paradise?" Daphne asked poking Collen in the side.
"Not this time nope."
"The beach?" Alison asked poking Collen from the other side.
"Well I'm going out on a limb here and guessing both of you have been to the beach before. It's fun, great views, but where we're going I'm also willing to bet neither of you have ever been to, and it's a lot more fun with a view is equally pleasant." Collen smiled.
"Why do I get the feeling you're not really talking about the actual scenery?" Daphne sighed. 'While he is definitely far more restrained then most, in the end he's still a man.' She laughed inwardly thinking that.
"What else would he be talking about if not the scenery?" Alison asked cocking her head to the side. While Collen himself wasn't about to call himself out on the truth. Daphne was to busy reveling in Alison's innocence to speak up.

A water park employee sat in his chair his head propped in his hand elbow resting on one of his crossed legs completely bored. "Hey no running." He grumbled more then calling out to a group of children running past. 'What I would do for just one thing to break up this regular day to day boredom!' He thought to himself, they weren't allowed phones, or any other sort of entertainment. His job was to sit in a chair to the side of the tube water slide pool. 'I've been sitting here for three hours! Two more to go.' He thought to himself. "Woooohooo!" 'Sounds like someone is having fun.' A small smile crossed his face. Then a tube dropped from the chute with a man and woman who's arms were up in the air and she was howling in pure joy while she laid back in his lap. This was the kind of reaction that the employee enjoyed seeing. 'On slow days this job can be the death of you. But when it's busy seeing the different reactions is always a blast.'

Cody was pulling up to the arranged meeting point when his stomach immediately dropped, he began scrambling for his phone. "Boss, there's someone hitting that Irish guy." "WHAT!?" Arthur's voice boomed from the phones speaker. Cody recoiled startled and terrified fumbling with his phone catching it. "WHERE ARE YOU!?" "I'm still in the car sir." "RUN THAT SON OF A BITCH OVER!" "What!? But sir I'm in the Bentley!" "SO!? Would you let something like that happen to me!? RUN HIM OVER!" Collen glanced over at the car approaching. After a momentary pause Cody shrugged and stomped on the gas pedal. SCRREEEEECH! The tires began spinning, burning rubber. It was true, If Arthur was being smacked around he would be doing exactly this or out of his car beating the culprit half to death. Although he was currently employed on paper as Arthur's personal driver, in the past he received extensive militar

Everyone soon arrived back at the hotel. A lawyer had quickly arrived at the scene to assist Cody in seeing everything goes over smoothly. Shortly after another driver had been sent to collect Collen, Daphne and Alison before anybody with cameras could arrive. When they got back to the hotel everyone separated to get cleaned up and ready for the party. Originally Alison and Daphne were both extremely hesitant since they didn't have a dress to wear and from what they heard on the phone, quite a few high profile individuals would be there. Collen informed them any party he has with close friends or employees were almost always casual and not to worry.Elsewhere in the offices of The Golden lining.Alexander was laid back in his office chair holding an ice pack to his face.

The grand reception hall was a thing to behold it was two stories, and was closer to the size of a music hall. Columns rose up circling the main hall, a beautiful custom mosaic floor shaping into a giant blue flower with black pedals forming off the bud. The tables, cloths and chairs were a matching black and white design, over a dozen giant chandeliers hanging over head, the ambiance lighting shifting every few minutes transitioning from dim lighting to black lights. During party's with upbeat music they could be set to change to the beat.Collen whispered to Arthur who was walking next to him. "Remember, I'm a nobody. Thanks to the both of you, I've got to walk on egg shells for the entire night.""Well as Evelyn mentioned before, there's a very easy to fix that." Grinned Arthur.....'Wait a minute.'

"Ms. Tatiana!""It's such an honor to meet you in person!""I didn't think it possible, but you're even more beautiful in person!""Marry me!"Tatiana strode into the room with refined grace without even trying, it was something as natural as the flow of water. Her wavy dark honey blonde hair draping past her shoulders flowing over her lean body, her posture straight, an aura of confidence exuded from her. She was everything a model and a man could want, what's more she knew it, that being said she never would allow such things to go to her head. She was simply confident in herself, not arrogant. She neither believed herself superior nor allowed the attention to inflate her ego.The extent of people's reactions all varied, though in the end every one of them was positive. Everyone present found hard to peel their gaze away from her, no it was mentally painful to do so! Her very presence demanded the spotlight without asking

"Excuse me?" Collen asked. 'Did I just miss hear this guy?' "I said You would probably be more comfortable over here friend. You and... These people have taken up enough of Miss Devine's generosity coming to visit with you. Now I believe it to be best if you just stay with your kind. She already donated more time then I would have." Mr. Charming said sneering at Collen. 'What the hell!? I've never even met this guy before and here he's standing in front of me treating me like some old high school rival.' "Why do I get the feeling you wouldn't donate any of your time unless there's something to be gained." Collen glared at the man. "That's right. I'm happy to see you're one of the smarter ones. So this should be relatively easy for you to understand... Stay in your lane." "Stay in my lane? Currently you're the one blocking my lane." "And what if I am? What are you going to do about it?" Charmer raised his hands out to his side and

Not only will I most likely be leaving with a famous model tonight, but this man's been pure gold as far as entertainment!' He was proudly giving himself a mental pat on the back when he saw the shadow of an object swinging inward from his side. Charles turned his face just in time to recognize a bottle being swung in at his face...."Huh?" The moment he mumbled this mind went blank.SMASH!Collen watched as Charles's eyes rolled back into his head after the bottle shattered over his head."Aah!" People cried out in surprise spreading outward trying to get away from Collen and the unconscious Charles. A wave of fear washed over the crowd. Very few remained calm and composed."Collen!" Daphne and Alison rose to their feet in surprise"Tatiana, Daphne, Alison,

'Who the hell approaches someone taking a piss?' ... "Hey wait.. Aren't you?" "Yea it's him!" The two men began laughing turning back to the urinal. "What the hell do you want loser?" "God do you seriously have no self respect?" "You two said something about spiking drinks?" The two men stopped laughing, and glanced at each other. "No you definitely misheard us. Do yourself a favor and forget what you think you heard." "One little drop in their drinks I believe were your words." Collen mumbled while rubbing his chin. ...
