Alana

I woke by the sound of rain. Rain in May, never would've though. I check my phone and I'm surprised to see that it's only 7:45. That's pretty early for me considering I'm not a morning person. I'm very grumpy in the morning.

I brush my teeth and work out for a bit, then shower and get ready. By the time I walk out of my room it's already 9:15 that means everyone should've started to wake up.

As I walk out I see the door to the room across of me open and see Vinnie walk out wearing sweatpants and a white tee which hugged his body perfectly highlighting his muscles. Oh my god how can a man have such good arms. I stop staring when I hear him clear his throat.

"Like what you see?" He raises his eyebrows. "In your dreams." I mock smile. "Oh trust me it will be." He walks towards me and I stiffen. "Aw do I make you nervous?" He pouts. "You wish." I roll my eyes and walk away. I walk downstairs to see Mia at the kitchen bar chatting with Jack and Patrick attempting to make pancakes. Keyword attempting.

"Patrick I swear if you burn another pancake I'm burning you next." Michael threatens him. "Make it yourself bitch." Patrick snarls. "No one asked you to make it you dumbfuck." Patrick flips him off and continues to make his so called pancakes.

"Well Alana good luck getting brekkie." Alex ruffles my hair walking towards the living room flopping on a bean bag.

"What does that mean?" I whisper to Calvin. "Don't ask I'm not high enough for this shit." He groans banging his head on the table. "I'm going to bed wake me up when Connor does." Calvin goes back upstairs. "Well then don't wake him up till noon." Kouvr mutters munching on a banana.

I fix myself a bowl of Reese's puffs and sit on the table beside Jack who greets me. I respond back with a small annoyed voice. "What was that? Couldn't quite hear you." He grins.

"Bro you're way to happy in the morning. I want a divorce." Jack gasps. "No you aren't getting one!" He feigns betrayal.

"Bro shut the fuck up." Vinnie walks towards us holding a plate of what looks like a half burned pancake. I choke a laugh. "Shut up that's the best he's done till now." He grumbles dousing it in syrup to cover up the burnt taste.

"Well here's Patrick trying to make pancakes." Alex comes towards us with his camera. "And oh Vinnie I'll give you five hundred bucks if you convince Alana to take a bite of Patrick's pancake."

I pause mid bite and widen my eyes rapidly shaking my head.

"Come one Alana please." Vinnie pouts. "No way no fucking way am I eating that shit." I protest. "Hey i made that with love, you're shit." Patrick comments.

"See he made it with love. You wouldn't wanna deny love now would you?" Vinnie suggests. "Nope not happening Vincent. You can enjoy it all by yourself." I beginning  to get up but a firm grip on my wrist pulled me back down.

I glared at the tattooed hand holding me captive. Vinnie brought the fork near my face. "Come one just a bite. For me please."

"Okay now definitely not." He frowned but hid it with a smile knowing the camera filming us. "Cut to half hour later and Alana still not giving in." Alex zooms in on us. "I think she might be the first not giving into Vinnie Hacker's charm." He laughed.

"Okay Alex now they'll definitely ship them." Jack laughed. "What no!" I looked at Jack. "Will they really?" Jack nodded amused. "Take a small bite and they won't." Vinnie said. "Okay fine." They all started to cheer as I took a small bite and instantly gagged. I ran to the sink and washed my tongue with water.

"What the fuck did you put in there?" I looked at Patrick who just raised his hands. "Hey don't blame me, Vinnie likes eggs so I thought I'd add some more to his." Vinnie stopped putting syrup and glared at him.

He got up and threw the pancake in the trash. "You did not." Patrick said. "I just did." Patrick flipped him off.

I take my bowl of cereal and finish it rinsing it off. "We're having a party tonight guys!" Thomas walks into the room with a smile. "Who'd you invite?" Michael asks. "Well many people and I allowed them to extend invites too." Alex groaned.

"Well everyone keep rooms locked unless you want someone having sex in your bed." Mia deadpanned. "So that means people we don't like will be here too." Jack states. "Well not for Thomas he likes everyone. Oh I'm Thomas I simp for everyone." Patrick mocks him which earns a laugh out of me.

"Suck it up guys and be ready by 8." He walks out and takes Mia and Michael with him to shop for supplies.

"Well I'm gonna go shopping for furniture today." I get up. "Oh cool Alex and I will help you!" Kouvr walks with me. "Well I'm gonna go stream." Vinnie walks off to his room.
