Short auburn hair put up in half-up bun, messy fringe framing her slightly touched up face — she was very proud of managing to make her dark circles look less dark with some concealer she stole from Dina —, small silver earrings, black suit with a white button up under it and a dark moss green tie were the most Ellie would ever do for an event, honestly, all that effort into putting something together herself made her more tired than actually organizing this charity dinner for her own company.

Williams Enterprises was famous, respected, and feared, and so was the CEO and owner, meaning she could do whatever the fuck she wanted, including not attend her own events. However, this time, a little birdie told her you were gonna be there in the name of your father's company, so of course, she would show up.

She made sure to get in without anyone noticing. She didn't want a fuss with the photographers and reporters, so she simply stayed lowkey, watching everyone chat, drink, eat, the old men ogling the beautiful women in stunning dresses, the women in stunning dresses faking their smiles. All things she could have spared herself from seeing once more in her life, but the sight of you, finally walking through the entrance in your beautiful outfit, greeting the people on your way with your ravishing smile and then... walking over to her? Yeah, that was worth it.

She knew you were only coming to her because she was the host, and it was the polite thing to do, but still, she'd let herself have that taste of what her dreams were like.
