Here lies one of the most prestigious and elegant hotels in the upper east-side of Manhattan. Where the most popular and powerful live, work, and play. This ladies and gentlemen is:



The Prince Hotel!

This hotel is owned by none other then the most wealthy and powerful young man to live in Manhattan, Christopher Aaron Montgomery. After his fathers death he and his aunt Katharine, promise to keep it up and running till it wouldn't run anymore. Leaving Chris well off for life. Has the best pent houses and view you can think of. Lets not forget that someone very dear to him also lives here.

Sophia's Home



Vacation was over and done with, but it was fun while it lasted. Arriving in the usual limo to the front of the Prince Hotel, she looks up and saw how things are still the same as always on the outside but, the inside was very different.



Sophie remembered the last time she was in a limo. All she could do is sigh and put on a smile for her beloved grandmother. She looked over to Eliana and smiled. "Well, that vacation was your welcoming to Manhattan. Don't expect another anytime soon. I have things to do and I need some time to prepare for the nights events. I want to have my last party of the summer before all things start and you will help me." She waited for Eliana to get out of the limo and walk with her. As they walked she saw Christopher. All she could do was look at him and keep walking. What else could she really do?



  She turned around and heard her phone go off. It was an Insider Alert. Wow, all summer she had her phone off so she wouldn't get any alerts and now she has one. It's about....everyone! "Oh no, everyone is back. Ugh! Just when I thought I would get a break from all the ugly people. This is terrible." She looked over the alert and smiled. Well, looks like your man is on his way to see you or to work. Go. Have fun. I will be here for a while and unpack. I have mail that I need to attend to. Dorotah!" She called out to her family keeper. They don't ever call her main. She is family. She smiled at Eliana, then turned and walked upstairs, saying to her that she better be back before 10pm. She needed her here. As Sophia walked up to the elevator and go to her floor, she went to her room and closed the door. She waited for Dorotah to bring her food and a tea as she wanted. She sighed and fell on her bed closing her eyes and day dreaming away. She read over the post and smiled as she saw Daniel's name. Memories started coming back.



A tear fall down the side of her face as she feels as if everything is her fault.

Prince Hotel Lobby 'Jason'

A tall and blonde man entered the reception of the Prince Hotel. You might be wondering what Jason is doing here? Looking for his sister? Nah, he doesn't even know about her. Looking for his father? Not even close. He wanted to take a break from work today or at least that's what he intended. But in all honesty, he was here to search for someone very close to him. A good friend. A girl he thought, he would never be able to look at the way he looks at all the others. Eliana O'Brien. She and William are the best friends Jason could ever have. And he found out that she was back. Which made him happy to hear. And eager to see her. Before he could speak to the man before the counter, he heard his phone go off and he read the Insider. He couldn't help but laugh at the news about him. Going to work? Oh please, the only reason he woke up this early was Eliana and only her. He took a sip from his coffee and looked at the man before the counter. "Hi, Can you let Miss O'Brien know an old friend is looking for her please?" He asked with a slight smile as he received a nod. All Jason had to do now is wait for the man to call Eliana and for her to show up, of course.

Lobby - Eliana

After such a long flight and an entire summer in Venice, all Eliana wanted to do was trudge upstairs to her nice little place and take a long nap. Before that on her list was to unpack, set aside the gifts she bought, and to give William a call. She had Prince Hotel Lobby felt guilty for not being able to tell him before Sophia whisked her away on this vacation. The insane woman had even confiscated her phone! What kind of cousin did that?! The answer though was exciting the limo before her. Sophia would.

"I think I will survive with that vacation for a while. My time zones are so off." She was still running on Venice time and man was she tired. How Sophia found all this energy was beside her. Allowing the bus boys to take their things, she gave her cousin the best bewildered look she could managed. Tonight's events? Party? What?! Thank the lord she had a couple days off before she went back to work at the Cafe or she would collapse of exhaustion.

There really wasn't any way to tell her cousin no without getting the pout and what was the closest thing to Sophia begging.
Before she could even begin her argument, both of their phones went off. Eliana scrambled for hers, looking through her purse for it while her cousin read the message. Opening it herself, she glanced over and raised her eyebrow. She would never get used to these Insider alerts. How were they supposed to know anything about a person other than what they do? Though she did smile when she read the part about William. It'd be nice to see him if he was coming here. If he was going to work, she'd call and leave him a message. Bothering him at their joint work would not be a good idea, especially when she was 'on vacation' for a couple more days. The boss had demanded she take one for working too hard. "Wow, trying to get rid of me already? I see how it is." She laughed, shaking her head as her cousin left her. There was the issue of unpacking her stuff before anything else.

She didn't make it half way through the lobby before a familiar voice caught her ear. Turning, she brushed her hair behind her ear and broke out into a grin. "Jason?!" This was an unexpected surprise to say the least. Making her way towards him, she gave him a quick hug before tugging him towards one of the sitting areas where they could catch up. "What are you doing here? Does Will know you're in town?"

Lobby - Jason

Looks like Jason didn't have to wait too long. Shortly after he asked for Eliana, he heard his name being called. And the awful realization of whose voice it was made him smile wide and turn around. Eliana O'Brien. The girl he was looking for. He never thought he would miss someone as much as he missed this young woman. Young woman? Hell, look at her. All grown up adult. And a beautiful one. A certain someone is definitely happy to feel something for this wonderful woman here. "Hey!" He chuckled and hugged her back. Though he was a bit disappointed when she pulled away that quickly and dragged him over to the sitting area. Jason smiled and looked down at his side. Oh man, they really needed to talk more. He had been here for over a year now. And it looks like someone was already forgetting. "Oh Eliana Eliana." He said in a dramatic way and shook his head. "Still the same girl that tends to forget things." Jason teased as he looked up into her eyes. "I'm here for over a year now. Unlike others, I like to stick with one place. Not travel around the world, holding someone else's dress." He winked, knowing Eliana hadn't left alone. And he knew for sure she didn't came back alone either. "And no, I haven't spoke with Will either. I've been busy." He flashed an innocent and charming look. "If you know what I mean." He poked his tongue out and plopped down on the couch. He made himself comfortable on it and looked at Eliana. "How about your trip? Was it good for something?" He asked tilting his head to a side .

Lobby - William

Cars came and went but there was only the one limo. Sure enough Sophia popped out first which was all the confirmation he needed. Eliana only went places with a few people. Good and bad in a way though predominately good. The less people she was around, the better. Keeping an eye on her was much easier that way. Thankfully Jason was helpful in that area. Trust wasn't something either of them doled out readily so having a sort of confident amongst their kind was good.

Will moved from his spot with a smirk and joined the traffic or people that filtered in front of him. He had taken up a lookout point across the street. Nobody in the area was particularly aware of their surroundings so nobody paid too much attention to the guy in a blue tee and a biker jacket. Ignorance will be the death of people. He shook his head at it all. They all wore the finest. Suits, blazers, dresses, heels, ties and he was just there putting up a middle finger to it all as he crossed the street.

His phone had buzzed a while back. Being who he was, he made a move to check it but when he noticed that both girls did the same thing he put two and two together. The Insider was like GPS on crack with a blogging addiction. Secrets were near impossible to keep thanks to whoever thought of the thing. But it didn't know everything. A good source had gotten in touch with him before The Insider could play Pin the Tail on the Socialites.

He entered the lobby, earning a few head turns, but nothing more. They knew who he was. Everybody did. Another predominately good thing. He paused long enough to look around. Jason had to be there. He caught a glimpse of him before. Just as his sight landed on him, he heard her. An unconscious smile grew and he tucked his hands in his pockets just watching. They could catch up without him. He wouldn't be doing much of anything different if he did sit with them. Sharing was not on his favorite things to do. Besides, he just wanted to see her.

Sophia Home /Her Room

  Sophia had already unpacked, placed all the gifts in each designated room; grandmothers, went upstairs to father's room, and Eliana's room. She noticed that Eliana wasn't around the house. How strange. She was tired, where would she have gone? Sophia rolled her eyes and walked back to her room. Missing the way it smelled and her soft bed, she changed and Dorohta came in and brought her mail. "Miss Sophia, Mr. Chris came by before you left with Eli to Venice and said he will be out for a month after vacation over. Lady Anna said to tell you she was at ET working on designs for Fall. Do you want to go to ET?" One thing Sophia hates the most is no one being home when she gets back from vacation. She loves to be welcomed with open arms from Grandma Anna and father. Now she has to leave the comfort of her home to meet her daddy dearest at work. How lovely. "I suppose I must. Daddy is over there too. Nothing much I can do here but sulk in the bad memories. My Fab bag and make it fast, Doratah. You're coming with me. I don't want to blow up in front of daddy and... Her. With that, she got out her phone and TEXT Victoria; I will be there in 5 minutes. DO NOT tell daddy I am coming. Xo S. She was ready to make an appearance to her father's presence, since he didn't even bother to come home for her arrival. We will see who makes who walk the cat walk first. She understands that her father and mother never got along and that they had gotten a divorce, but her mother could never be replace by that rage doll.

Lobby - Eliana

Jet lag was bothering her more than she thought if she was forgetting something as simple as Jason being in town for a year or so. Eliana had known that it was going to happen for awhile now and the two of them had also plotted ways to get Will out of the house to hang out with them. Instead of his usual 'loner' type of day. Narrowing her eyes at him for the comment about holding Sophia's dresses, she had to resist laughing. "I'll have you know that she held some of my dresses when we went shopping." Though it was mostly to hold up the ones that were approved and those that were being sent back to sit on the rack. Not that she was going to let him in on that tidbit at all. Frowning, she pulled out her phone and sent him a quick text to see what he was up to. Hey Will! I'm back from Venice~ what are you up to right now? She wanted to see him. "It was...interesting to say the least. Sophia had to hit every store that Venice had at least twice in a one month period. I managed to get both you and Will a gift but they won't arrive for a couple more days." Not all of their luggage was able to fly with them in one go. The maids at the Venice house were going to send them the moment they had a moment free in their schedule. "How was your summer?"

Lobby - Jason

Jason chuckled at Eliana's comment about Sophia holding her dress . Not her her . Yeah sure . Spoiled daddy girl holding another's girl dress ? Unlikely . Jason found it hard to believe . As he chuckled and looked away , he raised an eyebrow . He wasn't going to believe that . He couldn't actually . Eliana wasn't as spoiled as he or any other rich girl or guy was . Well he wasn't spoiled either . He just enjoyed this life because it was giving him a lot of opportunities . And because he had his part of fortune of his family . But that was it . He wasn't looking after leading the Tower . Nor take his father's place . He couldn't do it and he didn't wanted to . " Oh sure ." Jason leaned more back into the couch , making himself more comfortable as he listened to Eliana's ramble about what she did in Venice . Well that sounded really nice . He was glad to hear she at least had some fun . Because now she was back to prison , like it or not . She will have to go to work , deal with deadly glares when someone will see her with William . Because Jason will do the impossible to see these two together after all . They were way too stupid not to see how much they fit together and how much they love each other . " Well then i'm glad I haven't come with you . I mean , shopping isn't my strong point ." Jason chuckled and glanced around for a little bit . That's when he noticed William from the corner of his eyes . At first he made it look as if he hadn't seen anyone and turned his attention back to Eliana's eyes ." My summer was fun . Lots of fun . I don't think you want details . But it was sucky too in a way because of work and bla bla bla ." he shrugged and now the smirk grew wide on his lips ." Hey El ! Look behind me ." he said quietly as he waited for her to look and see William there . But seriously , that guy was way too stupid for this century . Just stand and stare ? Really ? Pfft .

Sophia's Home - Sophia Headed To the Lobby

 After waiting on Dorotah to get ready and for her to change outfits more then twice, she managed to get all her things together and head out the door. Wearing her Vera Wang dress black dress with its matching head band. Her hair was long and wavy. Black shoes and stockings. Winter was coming and she wanted her skin toasty warm. Pushing the elevator button down and stepped in. She looked at the time it was already after 11Am. Oh, how time went fast back here in Manhattan. She watched the elevator number go down once she reached the lobby floor her phone rang. It was Victoria, she had messaged her back. Don't worry Hun, my lips are sealed. Can't wait to see you! Xo Vic.Sophia had to smile. She missed her little worker. She needed a vacation. Stepping out of the elevator, she grated the bell boy, who was also Dorotahs husband, she gave him her bags and walked out to the font of the lobby following the right behind her bags. She tilted her head and smirked. Looking straight at them all, A tall guy walking straight towards them, her fathers mini-him, and her favorite cousin, Eliana.

"Oh, its the three musketeers. Are these the friends you were talking about in Venice, Eliana? How lovely. Sorry to purge in... " She said to them and turned in Eliana's direction. "I was looking for you upstairs. Wondering where you ran off to. I see now, well I am going to the office. Father is probably with....her...and he doesn't even know I'm here. So, I am off, call text if you need me. " In a arrogant tone and with hurry she said to Eliana. Every time she gets near Jason, she gets this weird feeling. Even thought she shakes it off. Giving them a slight smile of annoyance, she looked over them, then back at Eliana. She didn't want her to come with her, rather she could stay with them and go up stairs if they wanted. All she wanted to do was get out of this hotel and a part of her wanted to drag Eliana with her, but she didn't.

Outside Lobby - William

Yawning, he flipped the page of some travel catalog. They were either too rich or too bored if anybody was seriously looking through the thing and buying all the crap. Who really needed a vest with over ten concealed compartments? Where the hell were people traveling to need that stuff anyway?

His phone buzzed and he paused in his travel equipment education. He had a good idea who it was. Pulling it out, he glanced up at her and sent a quick TEXT back. To Eli: Sight seeing. Short, simple, to the point, and vague. Just how he liked it. There was no traces of a lie either. He was sight seeing alright and protecting her. There was something about a few of his fellow Tower buddies that didn't sit right with him especially when Eliana was around. Again his pocket vibrated. He had intended on casually walking over in the middle of their conversation when he got bored. Looking at the page of gadgets and ventilated scarves he figured it was time. After sending another short TEXT in reply; Look up Eli, he tucked the device in his back pocket, tossed the book on the nearby chair and headed over. It was going to be either him or Jason who broke the surprise. He wasn't sure if he beat him to the punch but he did try.

Lobby - Eliana

Smiling slightly at Jason, Eliana shook her head and laughed. "If you say I don't want to know the details then I probably don't." There are some things a girl just doesn't want to know about her guy friends. When he said that she might not want the details, she sure as hell wasn't about to push. It was about trust and how she really didn't want to hear if he hooked up with a girl. That was what guys told other guys.

Her phone buzzed with Will's reply. She puzzled over it for a moment before sending one back. Oh! I hope you're having fun. I can see you when you get back? The Insider Alert had said he was in the city but she wasn't going to use that as a reason to get him to come see her. She'd just have to wait. "Oh come on, work isn't that bad." It was something to do. Something to stay busy and not die of boredom. Then again, Eli was probably one of the few who worked to buy her own things instead of using a bunch of the money given to her. Phone buzzing again, she looked down and read it; Look up. just as Jason told her to look behind him.

Looking in that direction, she smiled brightly and her eyes lit up in both surprise and happiness. "Was he there the whole time?" She murmured to Jason, trying not to laugh at her own naivety. Sight seeing, in a city he lived in. How stupid was she? Standing, she stretched for a moment before moving towards Will. It had been just about two months since she actually got see him in person and dammit, she wanted at least a hug.

Sophia decided at that moment to show up though and she paused for a second. She attempted not to blush when her cousin decided to point out that she talked about them. What ever happened to the girl code of silence? Eliana nearly winced when she said that her Uncle was probably with the woman and she moved to hug her cousin gently. "You don't overwork yourself, you just got back." She murmured, releasing her cousin. "Call me if you need anything."

Lobby - Jason

Jason chuckled and shaked his head . Yeah well , she was a smart girl . And actually trusted him when he said she didn't wanted details . Because honestly , she didn't . And he wasn't going to talk to her about those details . Maybe other advices and all , but not the fact that he hooked up with some girl . He usually brags about it William . But he bores him easily too since he is only after one girl . Even though he won't admit it right away . Jason wasn't blind . He shrugged his shoulders when Eliana asked if he was there all the time . " Coming from Will , nothing surprises me ." he winked at his friend and then the famous Sophia decided to show up . Oh the joy of having this girl around . Jason stood up and looked at the girl with a sarcastic and annoyed tone on his look . Spoiled little girl . He hated the way she was speaking right now . Yes he feels weird around her but that doesn't mean he has to like the way she speaks . And the arrogant and annoyed tone in her voice bothere Jason big time . " I'm sorry , are we bothering you ?" he asked with the same sarcasm . Right now her face bothered him big time . Just like she mentioned the words three musketeers . Jason tilted his head to a side and checked her out for a moment before turning his look into her eyes , same sarcastic and arrogant look on his face .

Lobby - William

He had to stop when Sophia inserted herself into the mix of things. He was close enough to hear her and so far there was apologies, not a sincere one at least. Will sent a quick TEXT to Jason. Up her ass. Initially he was going to answer it after he got over to the pair but since Sophia provided a funnier answer, he shared it. Jason would be able to enjoy the humor of it. Later he'd explain the real reason.

Reaching them, he gave a tight smile to Sophia and bumped Jason's shoulder. The guy had one hell of girl to deal with. He kinda felt bad for him. It was funny to watch though. "You know, I think I saw some homeless guy drooling over your car. You should probably take care of it before the cops get involved or something. Wouldn't want you late, right?" Will purposely looked over to Eliana. If there was anybody who could send the overly pompous girl off it would be her cousin. Thank God she was nothing like her family.

Lobby - Sophia

Sophia answered Jason in a smart ass tone. "Oh, me no not at all. Am I bothering you...always. " Then she turned her look to the guy names William. This was the guy Eliana was gushing about. She looked him over closely. Yes, he was good looking, just needs an Armani suit and he is perfect. "Hmm...funny. Anyway... " She said while putting on her shades. " ..You make sure you take care of her or else. And you, Jason. Does father know you took the day off? Hmm. Well I must go. I will call you Eliana, promise. Au revoir," She said goodbye and then took off down the lobby hall entrance and then looked around. She got that feeling that someone was around watching. Shaking it off she got in the town car and headed to her company.

Thread Change - To Around Manhattan

Lobby - Eliana

The boys were not helping her with Sophia at all. They were bringing out that sarcastic side that was going to end with both girls in an argument later and irritated. Wonderful. Jet lag combined with sarcasm, just what she needed. Shaking her head, she smiled brightly and waved after Sophia. "Have fun!" Only when she was gone did she relax her shoulders and turn to the pair of them, looking fairly pleased with themselves. "You know, I told her nothing but good things about you two and now she probably thinks I'm crazy."

Shaking her head in mock disappointment, she smiled. There was no staying, or even pretending to be, mad at them. Glancing at her phone she noticed a text from Victoria but stuck it back in her pocket. Hey Eliana. Welcome back home! Hope you are alright and that you had a fab time in Venice. Hope to catch up with you, maybe either tonight or tomorrow night? Say hi to Will for me. X Vic. Not now, she would call her later for a chat. Or maybe tomorrow once she was more rested. Now belonged to the pair in front of her. "Were you there the whole time?" It was eating at her a little if he had been. How had she not noticed him? Regardless, she moved towards Will for the hug that Sophia interrupted.

"I missed you. You too Jason." Though Venice was fun, it wasn't the same. Though now she really couldn't wait for the rest of their items to get back to New York, she was sure they were going to like the things she got them.

Lobby - Jason

Jason look at his side when William joined and had to chuckle if not laugh at the comment he gave Sophia . That must suck . Have a homeless person drool all over your car . You never know what virus you can get from it once you go near your car . Bleh . Even if it was a joke , only the thought of it made Jason make a eww face . But that made it only more funny . He decided to ignore Sophia's answers to his sarcam and to his best friend's sarcasm . Why ? Because if he would start talking , World War 3 will take place . And Prince Hotel is a nice place . He wouldn't want to ruin it . She was ruinning it enough with her ego . Jason placed his hands on his hips and looked at Eliana ." How do you not strangle her ?" Jason asked as he pointed behind him to where Sophia took off with his index finger . Honestly , if Sophia was his sister , he would of killed her by now . Or at least talk some senses into her . He went from having his arms on his hips to crossing them as he watched Eliana when she tried to justify what Sophia said about her talking about them while they were away ." I honestly think she's jealous that you have us and she doesn't even have her daddy anymore ." Jason chuckled and watched the two love birds next to him ." Missed you too pretty girl ." he ruffled her hair lightly and smiled . " So are we just going to sit here and talk or are you going to invite us out for a drink ?" Jason teased Eliana and smirked mischievously .

Lobby - William

Will watched Sophia for a while before shaking his head. The girl was way too high maintenance for his taste and demanding and draining. How didn't anybody not strangle her? Eliana was too nice to hang out with that girl for so long but she did seem to have some kind of good nature towards Eli. "Did you tell her we were nice?" He was curious to know exactly what she had said about him. Smirking, he reveled in knowing she did talk about him to others. "I was only there for a while. Thought it would be nice to give you guys some time to catch up. That and it's funny to watch Jason. He thinks he's amazing." Will smiled, glancing at his best friend before wrapping his arms around Eliana in a well deserved hug. He hadn't realized how much he missed her till he was inches in front of her. Against everything in him that screamed against it, he let her go and stepped back. "I have to make a few more rounds but a drink or two won't get in the way."

Lobby - Eliana

"She's my cousin." Eliana shrugged as if those three words explained it all. Sophia was family, no matter how rude and uppity she could get. Eliana did love her. There was a side to her that they didn't get see, a vulnerable side that missed the male she had loved. Turning to Will, she only smiled brightly and shrugged. Oh no, they were not getting details about the girl talk like that. Especially some of things she had said about him.

Jason's jab towards Sophia's Father was uncalled for and her smile fell for a split second. She was a bitch at times but still didn't need a jab like that. Unfortunately, she forced down the angry words so not to ruin the happiness at being able to see the both of them again. Bringing the smile back, her arms wrapped around Will's torso and she let herself relax against him. "Then why did you say you were sight seeing?" Her hair fluffed out of place and she wrinkled her nose before throwing a mock frown at Jason. "Come on now, I'm not a kid."

Eliana didn't want to let go of Will but she knew it couldn't last forever. Pulling back, she couldn't help but laugh. Usually it was the guys that offered to take her out and she found more fun in watching them banter back and forth. Tired as she was, she wouldn't pass it up. "Alrighty, let's go. I'm paying though." Oh they were going to have things to say about that but she turned on her heel and picked up her purse and headed back towards the door with a grin thrown over her shoulder.

Lobby - Jason

Jason arched an eyebrow and watched those two get cheesy and hug and it was like he could see the desire in both of their eyes for staying like that forever . He was an expert at this kind of things . And it wasn't hard to tell . They were best friends after all . Him with Will and him with Eliana . Because Eliana with Will were anything but best friends . They loved each other , and that was obvious . He did poked the back of Will's head when he said Jason thinks he's awesome . " You know i'm awesome . You're just jealous too ." Jason teased back and he could clearly see the annoyed look on Eliana when Jason picked on Sophia's father . Or right , he hit a soft spot . But they should know Jason was like that and will use any weapon to hurt someone that pisses him off ." Are you two love birds done ? " he asked with an eyebrow raised and a bored look on his face . When Eliana made it clear that they were ready by started to walk , Jason patted Will's shoulder and gave him a playfull wink ." You're a lucky bastard . Don't mess that ." he said as he followed after Eliana . He was right though . Eliana was a great girl . And when William will have her , he'll be the luckiest person on this earth . He could tell that for sure ." What kind of gentlemans we would be if we let you pay ?" Jason smirked as he threw an arm around Eliana and pulled her close to him in a sort of hug . " It's good to have you back and know you're going to be a pain in my ass . Not as much as Sophia will be ." Jason chuckled and kissed the side of her head , in a friendly way of course as he walked with her towards the exit of the hotel , knowing Will was going to follow .
