The Avalon in Hollywood buzzed with energy as you and Neela stepped inside, the vibrant lights and historic charm immediately pulling you in. The iconic venue was alive with music, chatter, and an atmosphere that practically screamed Hollywood glamour. Neela looked stunning, her confidence radiating as she took it all in.
“This place is insane,” you said, craning your neck to look up at the ornate ceiling. “How is everything here so…fancy?”
Neela grinned, nudging you with her elbow. “It’s Hollywood, Jake. Everything’s over the top here. You’re just not used to it yet.”
“Yeah, no kidding,” you muttered, still taking in the elegant decor and the crowd of people dressed to impress. “So, what’s the deal with this place again?”
Neela laughed. “It’s one of the most iconic venues in Hollywood! Tons of famous events, concerts, and parties have happened here. Just being here feels like you’re part of something big.”
You smirked, leaning against a nearby railing. “Well, you’re already part of something big, Miss ‘Hollywood Star.’ I’m just the lucky brother who gets to tag along.”
“Exactly,” she teased, snapping a quick selfie of the two of you with the dazzling backdrop. “You’re my plus one. You should feel honored.”
The two of you explored the venue, from its glowing dance floor to the balcony overlooking the stage. Neela couldn’t stop pointing out how surreal it felt to be in a place where so many legends had stood.
As the evening went on, you found a quieter corner, sitting together and watching the bustling crowd. “Thanks for bringing me here, Neela,” you said, looking over at her. “This is definitely one for the memory books and why does this place look like the GTA5 map?”
“Of course,” she said, her smile softening. “You’re my little brother, Jake. I wouldn’t want to share this with anyone else and if course you are talking about GTA 5, I mean the game is based off of California.”
