don't mess with me;

Isaiah Jacob Omehia. 36 years old. Event Planner.

Olivia sat alone at the bar. How she had ended up here, well a better question to ask herself would be why was she here, she wasn’t exactly sure. She wasn’t a huge fan of drinking but if she had to try to pin point what is was it was probably a combination of a stressful day of work and the impending anniversary she was doing her best, and failing at, avoiding thinking about. There was only one empty glass in front of her but it was clear that she was already buzzed. “I’m sorry? Did you say something?” She tilted her head to the side with a small laugh.

[isaiahomehia]

“I didn’t...” He could notice in her tone what was also clearly in the expression she was sharing, she had taken a few more drinks than what she was probably used to. “But I will now, are you sure you’re okay, Olivia?” He questioned the woman, concerned about her. Since he wasn’t drinking in caase a ride was needed, he would gladly take her home safe.

“I can’t believe I’m doing this,” Jeremiah stated under his breath as he stood in front of the coffee shop, staring at the door as though it were a portal to Hell. He felt like he was being pulled in to different directions: one side of him feeling angry and not wanting to go inside, but the other hopeful that Hanna could finally have more than one person in her family. Apparently he thought he was doing the right thing and now he’s feeling guilty and trying to fix his mistakes. Sawyer’s words came back to Jeremiah, making him wonder if Isaiah’s guilt was enough reason to give him a chance to come back into his daughter’s life. “Hanna,” he told himself, shaking his hands out as if to rid off his anxiety, “This is for Hanna, not me.” 

“You’re right, I don’t want to be here,” the younger brother replied once he sat down across from Isaiah. “But you’re also right about being her father.” Jeremiah hated the words that left his mouth, but he also felt slightly relieved to say them. The battle within him over wanting to raise Hanna or to just be her uncle was finally getting the attention that it wanted. “Tell me everything you want, and I’ll tell you what I’m comfortable with.” He kept his tone neutral, not showing his brother that he was actually willing to give into Isaiah’s wants of being in Hanna’s life.

[isaiahomehia]

“I know now that what I did, my behavior through all those years weren’t the best. The fact I made you leavewasn’t correct and while I know that words won’t make it better, I still hope that with time you can forgive me.” Even if Isaiah thought it was hard to happen, he couldn’t give up of his family. He would have to find a way to make things right not only with his daughter but also with his brother. Moving his body on top of his seat, so he could make himself more comfortable, though the entire situation didn’t make him comfortable at all. Nothing about that conversation was easy, but he had to do it for his child. 

“I want her to get to know me, I know I can’t really just jump inside of her life, because she might be confused since I wasn’t there all of those years but,” he took a deep breath, leaning forward as a way of showing not only that he was interested but serious over the situation. “I want to know more about her, spend time with my daughter, know the things she likes and dislike. I missed too much and it already pains knowing that I won’t get the last five years back, but I would like to find a way to make the next years I still have to live to spend with her. And if someday she gets comfortable, there’s a room for her in my apartment. I want to make things right, I want to have my family back.”

“Not unless you come asking for them.” Ryder liked Isaiah. Their friendship had formed at work and he could tell right away he was different. He was a hardworker and he was genuine, all traits he admired, but the last time they had a fallout, it was not because he had something against the other werewolf but on principle. Sure, it wasn’t his business to mingle on regardless, it had been his bad to just react the way he had, but it hit a nerve on him, and Ryder just let out his frustrations about his own son with the man. “I’m sorry about that, but I’m not sorry about what I said.” With his half-apology, he shrugged. “Yeah, I’m okay. It’s just… there’s a lot going on. I guess I was just trying to find an easy way to deal with it but, this isn’t really doing the trick for me anymore.”

[isaiahomehia]

“I like my pretty face the way it looks already,” He shrugged, with a smug look. Isaiah knew that whatever could be happening or not happening was none of his business, he still had issues to talk about what happened in his life with anyone else but the few he actually trusted. Maybe he couldn’t make anything better, so he sat next to the werewolf, leaning his torso forward as his elbows rested against his knees, ignoring the smoke coming from the man next to him. “It’s life, man, there’s no easy way out of the problems it throws at us. But... if you need someone to talk to I’m here.” He looked to the side, offering a smile to the man before he moved his attention to what was happening in front of him. “I’m trying to get my daughter back. So, yes... I deserved the punch. I know now it was a terrible decision.”

@serenaxvela

There were only a few people he actually felt it would be okay to talk to, though no one compared to the bound he had created with Samantha, there was still someone who he wouldn’t mind giving a few answers, answers the werewolf had asked for once and he ignored all of her attemps. He discovered that sometimes talking could make himself be in peace with his own mind. So when he texted the werewolf and found himself in the park it was only a matter of time before he would see if he would neglect his idea, or be happy that he had moved forward with it.

The sun was setting giving shades of orange to the sky in front of his as the sun would kiss his skin before it would eventually fade away. He kept himself watching the landscape when he heard the heartbeats of someone approaching him, and he waited patiently because he knew it wasn’t a stranger. She was there.

[kepnerrrd]

Hey. Sorry, I should’ve called. They ordered us out really suddenly and I was hopping planes, and then I thought maybe I’d surprise you, but I can see by the look on your face…

[inessatruelove]

“You’re welcome, though I don’t see why I wouldn’t acknowledge it, or anyone for that matter. The only people allowed to thing that Omehia Events are people who have never been to one of your guy’s events,” she said seriously though with a playful edge to her smile. At his question she gave a light shrug, her lips twisting. “Well, not many I would like to think but I always seem to find a few that don’t recognize me at all.” But still she smiled, both at his compliment and the fact that he recognized how well known she was. It was always nice to here how famous she was. “Thank you so much. i bought it specifically for the event.. because, you know, stars, You look dashing as well, but I wouldn’t expect anything less.” She waved her hand off at his question, shaking her head lightly. “Oh no no, your staff has had me well cared for. Champagne… Hors d’oeuvres, everything I could want.”

[isaiahomehia]

“Well, good to know because if you ever need our job or someone you know, the door is always open,” it wasn’t hard to let a smile follow his words. He was in fact having fun during the event, it was the first one he was attending after his little incident, he had allowed one of his employees to follow the process on each event they had thrown ever since, but now, now he was happy that he was fully back, because the NPASA gala was a great opportunity and it was vital so he could get new clients. Having his attention back to the young woman, he kept the smile as a form to thank her for the compliment, since words always felt awkward in this situation. “Good to know, I’m always glad to see that they are doing their part to make this night memorable.”

[nicolaweiss]

“If I remember correctly, it did look amazingly on me. And I was totally going to use it as an excuse to see you again, but some things happened and I ended up never texting you.” Which, it was true. Nicola was really looking forward to texting him under the excuse of returning his shirt. They didn’t even have to repeat their night of sex. It’d probably be just a cup of coffee or maybe dinner, but if they ever did–you know, repeat that night, that would be more than fine. “Oh yeah?” She asked, arching one brow, even though she had no idea of what shirt he was talking about. “Now you’re going to have to show me. Sorry to break it to you, but I totally want to see you wearing one of my shirts!” Nyx laughed, picking up the champagne flute the bartender had just handed to her and smiled at him, before raising it towards Isaiah’s direction. It was funny how in a matter of minutes, that man had managed to lift up her mood. “Here’s to unexpected meetings, then.”

[isaiahomehia]

“So it was all a plan? You had a mischievous plan in your mind this whole time, and here I thought I knew you, goddess of the night.” He had wondered before if they would see each other again, since the dinner had been a great night they had shared, and so was what happened after that. With a few women he had previouslymet before her, he was used with the fact he wouldn’t see them again, it was exactly what he was aiming for, but she seemed different, not the kind of person you would hide yourself from. So he was actually glad that he was able to see her once again. “You want to make fun of me, but you don’t know how great I would look at it. Be careful, because you could fall for it,” keeping the grin on his lips, since he was joking. He would probably look terrible at it. But his attention moved from his thoughts to her act as she moved his drink up to toast, “I like it, here’s to seeing you once again,” tilting against her drink, he winked at the woman. “By the way, you look beautiful. Got me speechless a few minutes before I decided to drag myself here.”

[inessatruelove]

“Not selfish at all, unless it’s not true… and I don’t see why it wouldn’t be, you always do such a great job with these events.” As he offered his hand Inessa shook it firmly before letting go. “Oh I know who you are, if only because of these events, your companies well known for some of the best. I’m pretty sure one of my cast mates a couple of years back used you guys for a baby shower… It’s nice to know that you get music right as well. “I’m Inessa Truelove,” she added as an afterthought.

[isaiahomehia]

“No, it is true. But if they didn’t like the idea, they wouldn’t be here. And thank you... for acknowleding it.” While compliment about himself would always make him feel awkward about what to say, it was completely differently when it was directed towards his job. He really liked what he did, it had grown to him ever since it was one of the Anna had left for him to do. “Right, I remember that. And you also don’t need to introduce yourself, who wouldn’t know Inessa Truelove, right?” He kept the smile on his lips as he looked at her. “You look lovely tonight. by the way, I know compliments come all the time, but respectfully I would like to point out the obvious as well...  and I hope you’re having fun. Can I get you anything?”

[ceceliaweiss-deactivated2016031]

“Isaiah, hi.” A smile formed on her face, appreciating the assumed observation. “Yes, I am. Slowly, but surely. And yes, I’m amazed at this turnout. I guess I never realized how many people were in Astoria and events like these give me a glimpse. How about yourself?”

[isaiahomehia]

“While I’m people’s first choice for events, you’ll always see me around,” he replied to her, allowing a smile to form on his lips. “It’s a big district, but you get used to it until the moment you can call it home. I can’t see myself being anywhere else ever since I was a child, you get used to the environment and the people who lives here. And, while I’m feeling slightly tired, it’s gratifying to see an event take shape and the positive feedback about it, like you... you seem to be enjoying it.”

[nicolaweiss]

Nicola was kind of surprised to see him there. Despite being an event’s planner, like she had come to know by their conversation during valentine’s day, she still wasn’t expecting him to be the one behind this particular event. “Isaiah, hello!” She beamed, actually glad to see the tall, handsome man standing there. “You could say that it’s a small world, because, out of all events planning agencies in Astoria, NPASA would pick yours. But then again, I’d assume they would pick the best, right?” She was blabbing yet again. Clearing her throat, she nodded. “Yes, that would be lovely–thank you. I’ll have a glass of champagne.” Glancing over at the bar, she gave the order to the bartender, before looking over at Isaiah. “I’ve been meaning to text you. I should probably return your shirt…”

[isaiahomehia]

“I like to assume we’re the best they could find here,” he joked, knowing that the competition was great but he had been working so hard on the company for Anna that it was unfair not the get an event thrown by the NPASA. As she made her order, he looked at the bartender, “a Bourbon, please.” And those were the gew seconds his eyes were out of hers before he moved his attention back to the young woman. “You can keep it if you want, it probably looks better on you.” He shrugged, with a grin resting on his lips before his order and hers had arrived. He didn’t knoe if the bar was indeed working fast or if it had happened because of him. “I’ve been meaning to return your shirt too, but it also looked better on me,” he joked, hoping it would at least steal a smile from her lips. “After awhile I thought we wouldn’t see each other until some sort of unexpected event happened, and here it is.”

[ceceliaweiss-deactivated2016031]

“Wow…this is quite a turnout.” Cece muttered under her breath as she navigated her way through the crowd. Ocean hues scanned the area, attempting to look for a familiar face. At least, somewhat familiar. She didn’t know anyone here all that well. The bar was just ahead, and as she debated on drinking she continued to wander and search.

[isaiahomehia]

His eyes moving around through the crowd, spotted a certain blonde who he had talked to before, he could have kept his way, he had done it thousand times but he decided to wave because he had a good memory of how she felt previously. “Cecelia, right? I assume you are getting used to everything now. Having a good night?”

[nicolaweiss]

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to be there. She did… Nyx really did, but there was something about her mood that was affecting the way she was seeing tonight as a whole. She was waiting by the bar, lost in her own thoughts, practically just keeping her distance to mostly everyone, at the same time that she watched people dance.

[isaiahomehia]

He didn’t know why he had talked to Sam about it, because once he noticed and she noticed the girl’s presence there wasn’t much he could do but make his way over her, since it would be either that or listen to Sam saying he should. And there was no harm at it; sure it had been a one night stand, but her company during the dinner had been nothing but fun, she was the type of great girl you don’t mind seeing again. It took him a few steps across the room, reaching the bar as he stood next to her. “I could start by saying this is a small world, but it’s really easy to find me in events.” What if she didn’t remember him? That would be terrible. “It’s nice to see you again...” Smiling at her for a brief second, he looked at the bar before his eyes reached hers again. “Can I buy you a drink?”

[inessatruelove]

The string quartet was impeccably brilliant and Inessa’s finger itched to join their playing but for now she just stood near, enjoying the violin solo to the piece.  These kinds of events always made her excited, just an excuse to dress up her newest formal attire, this one picked out exactly for the NPASA event. The dress went to the floor, a dark blue affair with a bit of a sparkle in the light from the smattering of crystals; she’d had plenty of compliments on it already by a few of the theatre crowd that she had already met up with. When the piece finished and the quartet took a pause she clapped softly, turning to the person next to her. “They really did pick some talented musicians for tonight.”

[isaiahomehia]

He had been watching how the event was slowly developing, it was another event he could watch taking form in front of his eyes and now his eyes wondered through every single detailed that would complement the room before his attention changed once he noticed that he wasn’t alone, and that Inessa Truelove was giving him the pelasure of her company. “Is it selfish if I say that I’m half of the reason why they are there?” He used a playful tone before offering his hand, “I’m Isaiah Omehia. And indeed, I’ve always enjoyed working with them. It’s a pleasure to throw events that they are part of it.”

He had gotten there earlier than he needed. After a long time, Isaiah had faced hours awake in the middle of the night, afraid he was going to screw up, say the wrong things that would make his brother act out and try to move away with his daughter. Now that he understood that he should have never let go of family, he was afraid that karma would make him lost it again. He knew it would be hard to make his brother understand that he wanted both of them back to his life, but at least, he wanted to get to know his daughter, to know what she liked, to be a father. Something he hadn’t been through all those years and he would forever regret such decision.

Calling the waitress for another cup of coffee he kept himself focused on the bookr in front of him, turning the page as his eyes would move quickly through words, but soon his attention wouldn’t be in the information he was reading, but the door being opened, the heartbeating and the scent of his brother. It could have been five years but that was something he couldn’t forget, even if Jeremiah had a different point of view, for Isaiah he would always be his brother. He would just wait until his little brother was sitting in front of him. “I know this is the last place you wanted to be... at least with me as your company. But thank you for coming.”

[samblackwell-blog1]

Sam opened her mouth, setting her coffee on his table, placing her hands on his shoulders. “Holy shit, you got laid!” She laughed, pulling him into a hug and kissing his cheek, before she leaned back against his desk and picked up her cup of coffee, bringing it to her lips and sipping on it. “How was it? Was she good? Did you have fun? Are you seeing her again? Tell me everything. Go.”

[isaiahomehia]

He shook his shoulders automatically as the laugh came out of his lips, shaking his head. “You are unbelieavable.” He replied to the woman in front of him, holding his shoulders while pulling him into hug and kissing his cheek. “I feel like a teenager who just lost his virginity. This is weird, why are you doing this?” He raised his eyebrow but was still laughing because at least his gossip had changed her mood. “I’m not going to talk about it.” He only kept the grin on his lips. “I don’t... how do you say? Kiss and tell.”
