"We have a guest that's gonna stay with us for a little while, come down and help her with her bags!" Carrie yelled as we stepped into her house. She lives in a big house, I guess social working does make good money. "Coming Ma!" I hear foot steps running down the stairs. Then a rather attractive blonde appeared, "Wow ma, when you said we're having a female guest I didn't expect you mean we're having the school nerd over." Blake chuckled and I looked rather embaressed, "Mind you own business Blake! Be nice to our guest here!" as a certain brunette came in sight, holding a half eaten sandwich, turning to me, " I apologize in advance for the poor attitude my very own brother treated you with, I'm Mason by the way." as he said with a smirk on his face. "Get a life Cole! Don't you ever get tired of this trick?!" Blake yelled from the other side of the room, entering a very shy brunette, looking at me in awe. I walked towards him, reaching out my hand,"You're probably the real Mason I presume?" He nodded and gestured me to hand him my bags. "I can get them myself." "But you shouldn't, that's what men are for. I'm Carter by the way, if I don't get these bags quick enough I might not even get dinner tonight." Carter entered the room, snatching the bags away from me and headed upstairs. 

==============================================================================

"So this is your room and before you say anything, we did expect a female guest so we stereo typed a little bit." Mason said before opening the door to the guest bedroom. "Wow" The whole bedroom is painted in an elegant lavender color with matching bed covers lying on the queen sized bed set in the middle of the room. There's a walk in closet and a rather spacey bathroom. "I know it's not much but," "It's perfect! Thank you so so much!" I cut him off by pulling him into a big hug and Mason blushed. I made Mason Parker blush and it's flipping adorable! "It's really fine...you know..." I finally released the poor guy and had a goofy smile on my face. "Already enjoying yourself so much in there with Mason? What about a house tour with me? I'll promise to rock your world" Cole said leaning on the door frame stretching out his lean biceps, wearing a huge smirk on his face. "Um, sure?" I said looking rather lost, walking towards Cole, "Are you sure you don't want to unpack first? I can help..." Mason called from behind as I get pulled out the door by a rather muscular Cole,"Nah lil bro, she'll have her chance with the big guy first"

"That's Blake and Carter's bedroom that we just walked past. This is my room, where all the magic happens, I always saves a spot for pretty ladies" Cole said while winking a me, sending shivers down my spines. "And here's Mason's room, not much physical action happens here, and the sound coming out of this room never interested me." Cole stated in a rather bored tone as I took a quick over view at Mason bedroom. His bedroom is awfully tidy for a teenage boy and has musical instrucments every where. I saw a beautiful guitar laying peacefully on its shelf in the corner of his room," I wouldn't touch that if I were you, Mason hates it when people touches his 'other half', he can even sense it when people touch it" Cole reminded me. I looked down feeling rather embaressed. "That's all we have on this floor and as you can tell, you're room is right across the hallway from ours, so if you can't sleep at night, I'm more than welcome to share a bed." Cole said with a smirk on his face, again. I wonder if it was ever off his face sometimes, but for a playboy, he sure is nice enough. "Uhum" someone coughed behind me revealing a rather upset Mason, Cole flashed him a stern look before turning to me ," It'll sure be fun with you around babe." with that he pecked my cheek and I'm sure I blushed as I felt the heat filled up my cheeks. Mason looked like he was about to explode any second , Cole walked past Mason on his way out, whispering something to Mason that I couldn't make out and disappeared in the hallway.

"Skylar? Skylar? Skylar are you okay?" Mason called out as I retrace my steps from my daydream. "Yea I'm alright? Whaddup?" "Dinner is ready" "Good, coz I can eat an elephant." Mason chuckled and led me in the dining hall. Dinner with the Parkers were quite ordinary enough, small talks here and there. We never had those before, we seldom even have dinner together, it's rather heart warming looking at the Parkers do so, it makes me feel so welcoming," So Skylar, did anyone show you around here yet? It's not huge but it's still possible to get lost around here." Carrie asked in concern," Don't worry Carrie, Cole showed me around this afternoon." Carrie nodded and Cole did a little bow. "Do you have anywhere you wanna go after dinner then? Or we'll just stay in and watch baseball matches." Carter asked "Nah, baseball is fine!" I shrugged "First you actually finish everything on your plate then you watch baseball, I love you already! Welcome to the family!" Cole got up and ran towards me to give me a hug while Mason looked pissed and walked out of the room, I wonder what's wrong with Mason this afternoon?
