                                                            Tuesday Afternoon 4:35 PM

I had made myself pretty busy through the day, I had finished unpacking in my bedroom had a shower and changed into more.. suitable clothes? I guess less casual clothes since I would be meeting the boys for the first time I wanted to look nice. I did my hair and make-up as well. Then? I did some laundry whilst dinner cooked I even handmade a dessert, For boys that ate out a lot the fridge and pantry was nice and stocked this really was my dream kitchen. I had gone all out because the boys had several things they really enjoyed and of course I wanted to make a good first impression now didn't I? I'm in the kitchen when I hear the front door opening I just finished setting the table and took dinner from the oven getting everything nice and neat onto the table so it was easy to grab what they wanted while dessert waited in the fridge, I heard there voices first there accents alone had me weak in the knees.. I was starting to feel like I was in heaven now jeeze I would have to get use to that real quick or I would become a puddle every time one of them talked!

"What's that smell?" One of them asks and I hear them all heading toward the kitchen I bite on my bottom lip I hadn't felt this nervous before as I stand by the fridge pretending to be busy with getting drinks for the table "Smell's amazin'" Another one adds as they group into the kitchen spotting the food on the table with me bent over getting drinks from the fridge. I pop out and shut the door offering a sweet smile "Hey, Welcome Home" I greet as casually as I possibly could.. As casually as my racing heart would let me, They were even more gorgeous in person. On instinct I bite my lip again and they're gaze seems to follow the small action making me a little self concious and more aware of the situation I was in. "You're our new assistant?" Ashton asks and he is the first to come forward with a friendly smile before offering his hand which is twice the size of mine by the way.. I accept it and instead of shaking he kisses the back softly causing my cheeks to fade to a light pink color "Y-Yeah, I'm Eliza" I stutter having to clear my throat to calm my nerves a little "You're beautiful" Luke compliments from behind Ashton and I blush darker the guys take notice of my reactions and it only makes me more nervous "Thank you" I reply sheepishly "Whatever you cooked smells amazing too" Mike said coming forward to take me into a gentle hug I tense for a moment before offering a weak hug in return and he chuckles a bit "You'll get use to that, Mikey is a hugger" Calum explains being the last to come forth he leaves a lingering kiss on my cheek which by now my cheeks are the brightest red they could possibly become. "I-I'm sure I will.. I wasn't sure about making just one thing.. So I went over the list I was given and made something from each list.. Only one dessert tho" I admit a tad sheepishly. "Well, It smells and looks amazing" Ashton compliments moving his hand to my lower back escorting us all toward the large table "Why don't we eat and get to know you better? Have a drink and settle in a little" He suggests and I nod softly "That sounds really good" I admit. I hadn't been sure if it was gonna be right to work as soon as they entered the house, but I was thankful to Ashton for suggesting we relax and talk a little.. I take my seat at the head of the table and the others take a seat as well they all choose what they wanna eat and I select a bit feeling a tad to nervous to eat and I have a simple glass of wine the boys had there favorite drinks waiting as well.. They're eyes were on me as they took the first bites and there was a unison hum of approval they all sounded happy with how it tasted which helped relieve some of my nerves making me smile a bit.

"So, Tell us about yourself?" Luke suggests all eyes on me and I fidgeted taking a sip of the wine before nodding "Well, I'm Eliza, I lived in New York before coming here and before that I lived in a really small town.. I have two older siblings two healthy parents and I had a dog once, But he died a few years back.. I like photography it is a bit of a passion.. I also really like being outside.. Things like bike riding and hiking and swimming.." I reply softly looking at each of them as I spoke and they all seemed super tuned into everything I was saying. "So, You're beautiful, A really good cook, And you're an outdoors girl? You sound pretty perfect to me. What lead you to this job?" Calum asks and I bite at my lip again it doesn't go unnoticed by them,, Some of there gazes darken when I do it and I keep that noted in the back of my head. "Well, Like everyone else I thought it was a typical job, But I was given the secret details during the interview.. Honestly it seemed like they thought I was gonna bolt the second they mentioned the.. "Extras". But it didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. Aside from the extras it is a pretty normal job and it pays really well, It'll help me save up for my dream career plus I couldn't really pass up working with you four. I know I would have regretted it if I had" I explain hands laced together in my lap my legs crossed this time my teeth are against the inside of my lip as I watch them each for a reaction.
