   As the first night in the house went on, some people got more and more drunk. Like Miles or Andy, for example. Miles was getting angrier, just in general, and Andy was getting clingier on Logan. Mostly everyone was outside, hanging out in different areas of the yard, aside from a few who dwelled inside. Miles excused himself from the large circle of guys to go get himself another beer.

"Miles, are you sure you need another one?", Alex asked him. Miles nodded as he swayed in his shoes. Alex and Miles had quickly become friends, feeding off of each other's goofy energy.

"Yeah.", he responded. "Yeah, I'm okay." He continued inside to the kitchen to retrieve his drink.

Alex: "I've haven't known Miles for long, but I know when someone has hit their limit. And he's hit his limit."

As Miles began the stumbling journey back after getting his cold beer, he ran into a tall wall. Well, what he thought was a wall, on impact.

"Oh, I'm sorry, man.", Logan apologized. Logan had had his fair share of alcohol as well, and it didn't take much to get the tall blonde buzzed.

  "Hey, bro. It's all good.", Miles laughed. The two continued in their paths but Miles stopped short when he saw an interesting sight: Hadley sitting on Prosper's lap.

Brooke: "We're way early in the game and Hadley has every right to flirt with anyone she wants but, after the big kiss in the living room earlier, I knew that Miles was going to flip his sh*t."

"What's going on here?", Miles chuckled humorlessly. Almost everyone in the circle popped their heads toward him, including Prosper and Hadley.

Alex scoffed. "Miles, bro, are you alright?"

  "No, because this d*ck has got my girl on his lap.", Miles grumbled. Brooke, Joshua, Logan, Matthew, Laurelle and Andy all had their attention grabbed by the ordeal and now looked at Miles in suspense and slight fear.

  "Miles, she's not your girl. It's the first day in the house, we don't know who is whose match.", Prosper said carelessly. He was calm without much of a temper, and didn't see the big deal in the situation. It's not like he was groping her, he just had her on his lap. He gently moved Hadley off and stood. "And besides, we were talking. Don't get so angry."

  Miles nodded, looking at the ground. "I'll show you angry." Quickly and suddenly, Miles swung his fist toward Prosper. Expecting something like this, Prosper ducked on instinct. When he ducked, Miles ended up punching Logan, who was standing behind Prosper.

  "Oh my gosh! Logan, are you okay?", Hadley gasped, turning her attention to him. He was holding his hands over his face and Hadley slowly peeled them away. Tears mixed with blood against his jawline. The blood was running from his nose and down his lips.

  "Miles, what is your problem?", Alex shouted at him. Miles was frozen staring at Logan.

  "I-I'm sorry.", he finally spoke. Prosper shook his head and stepped behind Hadley. Andy then came and practically pounced on Logan.

  "Logan, are you okay? You're crying? Why are you crying?", she whined. She was clutching and clawing Logan's shoulder just so she could stand up straight.

  "Leave me alone.", Logan sobbed, before he broke away from Andy and hurried inside, clearly hurt and upset. Hadley was right behind him with Fallon trailing. Prosper and Miles followed after them.
