The Most Heinous Vase Ever Created
Maven
“It smells like rich assholes in here.”
I wrinkled my nose to hammer that point home, and my best friend let out
a soft laugh before sipping from the glass of champagne she held daintily
between her fingertips. The diamonds on her warm brown wrist glittered
under the chandelier, but as impressive as her jewelry was, it didn’t hold a
candle to the long, black, starlight-like dress hugging her curves and draping
down to the floor in romantic sweeps of shimmering fabric.
“And you know that because you’ve had your nose buried in a rich
asshole a time or two in your life?”
“Don’t even have to get that far to sniff one out. Just being in the same
room suffices.”
The room we were currently in was of the ballroom variety, with elegant
chandeliers, pristine marble floors, and a majestic, vaulted ceiling painted
like an Italian chapel. It was one of the most historic buildings in Ybor; an
old social club transformed into an upscale party for tonight’s event.
When we walked up the grand staircase earlier, I was entranced by the
lush gold and blood red tones. The way they mixed with the expensive
wooden trim transported me back in time, as if we were attending an 18
th
century royal affair.
Tampa’s rich and famous filled the lavish space, dressed to the nines in
tuxedos and gowns that cost more than everything I currently owned put
together. The only reason I was able to dress to fit in was because of Livia,
who had a flair for designer clothes even before she was the highest-paid
dentist in the state.
Mostly because her dentistry didn’t just consist of filling cavities and
routine cleanings — although, she’d argue she did plenty of that, too — but
rather handling the absolutely brutal mouth trauma suffered by professional
hockey players.
She’d been ecstatic for the chance to get me out of what she referred to as
my “hippie clothes.” I much preferred the flowy fabric of my Free People
dresses to the form-fitting mermaid number Livia had strapped me into
tonight. Although, the gorgeous yellow tone of it was my favorite. It
complemented my rich, creamy brown complexion beautifully, and I’d styled
my hair back in a sleek ponytail so all attention stayed on the dress.
Livia folded one arm over her middle, balancing the elbow of the other on
her wrist and tilting the champagne flute to her lips again. “What exactly is
the scent?”
“Dirty money, designer leather, and Bond No. 9,” I said easily. “With a
hint of that particular fragrance that you only find in the lobbies of milliondollar condos.”
“Does my condo lobby smell?”
“It’s the most pungent one in Tampa.”
Her coral-painted lips curved into a saccharine smile, one that told me she
took that as a compliment.
“Well, good thing you’re only here to report on the event and how much
these rich assholes raise for charity tonight,” she said. “Wouldn’t want you to
catch the stench.”
