Third Person POV:

Your hands gripped the handles of one of Joost's friend's bags as you followed them across the yard, your mum leading the way toward the Airbnb out back. Daisy trotted beside you, her tail wagging happily, completely unaware of the chaos she'd caused earlier. Joost walked just ahead, glancing back now and then, his smile growing every time your eyes met.

When you reached the Airbnb, Mum unlocked the door and ushered everyone inside. "Here we are." she said with a proud smile, stepping aside to let them in. "Make yourselves at home. I'll grab some extra towels for you all."

She placed the bags on one of the beds, then shot you a look that said "be nice" before heading back out to fetch the towels. As soon as she was out of sight, Joost turned to you with a grin.

"Alright, time to introduce the crew properly." he said, a hint of playful drama in his voice. "This is Appie." He pointed to the first guy, who had a head full of thick, black curly hair and a mischievous grin that matched Joost's energy.

"Nice to meet you!" Appie said, giving a small, exaggerated bow that made you laugh.

"And this." Joost continued, turning to the next guy, "is Martijn." Martijn was pale and on the chubbier side, with a friendly face that looked like it was made for smiling.

"Hey there!" Martijn greeted, his voice warm and cheerful as he waved like you were old friends.

"And last but definitely not least, this is Teun." Joost said, nodding toward the tall guy with light brown hair tucked under a well-worn cap.

"Sup!" Teun said, flashing a grin as he tipped his cap to you, trying to be cool but only managing to look a little goofy.

You couldn't help but smile at their antics. "It's great to meet you all."

"Oh, it's perfect." Appie said, dramatically throwing himself onto one of the beds like he was in a luxury hotel. "Five stars. Maybe even six."

Martijn nodded in agreement, looking around with wide eyes. "Yeah, I feel like I'm in a movie or something."

Teun was already half-unpacking his bag, but he suddenly looked up, his eyes lighting up like a kid on Christmas morning. "Hey, Y/N, can we see the farm animals?"

You laughed, surprised by his enthusiasm. "Of course! The animals are just out back. I can show you around."

Before you could finish, the three of them were already heading for the door, practically tripping over each other in their excitement. "Let's go!" Teun yelled, as if he were leading a charge, with Martijn and Appie right on his heels.

Daisy, catching the energy, bolted after them, barking happily as she joined the stampede. You just stood there, shaking your head with a grin, realizing you'd been left alone with Joost in the now-quiet room.

He looked at you, clearly trying to suppress a laugh. "I guess they're eager."

"Just a bit." you replied, your grin matching his. The excitement outside was contagious, but here, with just the two of you, the atmosphere felt different—quieter, more intimate.

Joost shifted his weight slightly, his eyes flicking to the camera bag he'd set down earlier. "Hey, speaking of excitement... I almost forgot." He reached for the bag and pulled out a sleek, professional-looking camera. "Alanis said you can borrow this for the shoot."

Your eyes widened as he handed it to you, feeling the weight of it in your hands. "Wow, this is... intense."

Joost chuckled, leaning in a little closer. "Yeah, it's a pretty serious piece of equipment. Just, you know, don't break it." His tone was teasing, but there was a warmth behind his words, like he was genuinely happy to share this part of his world with you.
