SMS FROM ANONYMOUS:

I've heard a lot of different opinions of it, but I really liked it. It was a good movie. And no, that's not disappointing at all, from what I've heard you've been quite the busy man. How does it feel to be back in the theatre? No, no. Your chance at impressing me is definitely not blown.

we are allowed to talk about it but i'm afraid i'm about to disappoint you. i have not actually seen it yet. i also do not have an in with it, i'm afraid my pull doesn't reach quite that far. have i totally blown my chance at impressing you?

Me? A Queen? Ugh, you're so sweet. You are such a Queen. Oh, how did I forget about your Coachella one? That one was also good. You got a lot of shit from BBC or people in general? Who do I have to fight?

Yeah but coming from a queen as yourself means so much so thank you! Oh my gosh really? That's one of mine as well, next to my Coachella one. Right? And that was very hard for me might I add. Oh I got a lot of shit but I'm kinda used to it now sadly.

barbara: formalities aren't your strong suit today, are they? hi nick, i'd ask how you are but judging by the urge of this text i'll take a shot in the dark and say not great. barbara: what's up?

nick: we need to talk... and not like in a few hours. now. now we need to talk. @palvinfms

how do you deal with break ups?

"It really depends on the nature of the breakup for me. I admit, I don't deal with heartbreak in the healthiest of ways, I usually lock it behind some impenetrable wall but at some point or another it comes to surface."

Kendall, love! Sad that we missed each other in Vegas, it would have been cool to meet up and go out for a night, I hope you had a good time though! What'd you think of the whole reason we were there to begin with? @kennnywtf

BARBARA PALVIN. Cannes Film Festival - Red Carpet.

His voice was as smooth as glass and as sharp as a freshly sharpened kitchen knife, slicing through the air between them as azure hues landed on his figure. A perfect brow arches as he orders the same thing as her, her own smirk teasing on her lips, “Aw, way to hurt my feelings, Nick.” Mentally, Barbara had one foot behind this steel fortress she built around herself when her marriage crumbled apart, and the other out in the open - naive and vulnerable. She hated that part of herself, wished she could just… push her behind that wall. However, recent events kept chipping away at that wall, the facade she had donned on for the last few months slowly coming undone. “I’m starting to think we should all just start a group chat with this entire thing.” Barbara replies with a soft laugh, having noticed the same people she saw in Vegas now here in the Maldives. All for one reason, and one reason only. 

Her attention was momentarily pulled in the direction of the bartender who places their drinks down, giving him a warm smile in thanks as a hand encircled the chilled glass. “Here’s to two weeks of hopefully peaceful paradise.” She lifts her glass in the small toast before taking a drink, the strong liquor sending that delicious burn down her throat. Licking the excess liquor from her lips, Barbara leans her hip against the counter. “We were never really good at small talk, Nick.” The model points out with a small hum, the tiniest bit of smiles playing at the corners of her lips. What was once… light and fun, was now coated in the thickness of the tension with the events that had transpired. And she hated it. She wasn’t a fan of confrontation or tension, and would rather avoid it at all costs quite honestly, but this was something that couldn’t be avoided. This wasn’t something she could just read and toss aside, ignoring it for the rest of the night. “So, are we talking this out like the adults that we are - or are we playing the one sided blame game again?"

while being away from his daughter wasn't something that nick had particuarly enjoyed, in his mind, he knew trips like these were absolutely mandatory knowing the consequences. he hated the fact of lying to his family, friends, and even his ex wife about the places he was going, but it was certainly better than the alternative of losing custody of malti. besides, it wasn't like the maldives was the worst place to be... in fact, it was paradise. although his anxiety was at an all time high knowing the exact reason why he was there, hopefully he could find some time to relax. getting settled in his room, nick fixed his hair in the mirror. his text to barbara earlier in the evening was more than spontaneous as the last conversation they had together wasn't exactly favorable. although, there was something about the woman that nick certainly couldn't deny, and that was his attraction towards her. making his way to the elevator and down to the bar almost immediately barbara's perfected physique caught his eye. "aw, way to hurt my feelings, barb." he said with a smirk painting over his features as he overheard the conversation between her and the bartender. "make that two, please." as he cleared his throat he leaned up against the bar meeting her gaze. "funny meeting you here in paradise, huh?" nick tried to make small talk, not exactly admitting how wrong he was in the first place about their last conversation.

I've been a few times and have always had a good time, ziplining over Freemont street was fun. What's the one thing you've always wanted to do in Vegas? Or even see? We can start with that. Plus side to Vegas too, you're free to walk on the strip with a pint.

i'm a free man for now with my projects being in post production and i have to say vegas is new for me. I never really had the time to visit even though i've heard incredible stories about what goes on here. thinking of doing some site seeing if anyone wants to join me. may get a pint later on. @hwstarters

I need to know, are we allowed to talk about Madame Web yet? Because I have questions, and theories, and with those theories more questions. Have you seen it? Or at the very least got some of the in about it, if you know what I mean? @hcllandstcm
