Rosie's pov

I race up the stairs after Brennan, super excited to see Harvey.

I wait by the door anxiously and when Harvey opens it, I jump right into his arms. Home.
"Rose!" Harvey exclaims. He looks me over. "You seem so much taller and... did you get a haircut?"
"A trim, yes." I smile.
"Wow I'm surprised Harvey noticed that!" Mrs. Jill laughs. I turn to look at her and see the camera, I didn't know she was filming, but I didn't care.

  After Harvey and I are all caught up, Mrs Jill asks what do we want for dinner.
  "Rosie, have you had Dominos before?" Brennan asks.
  "Huh?" I ask.
  "Dominos pizza." Harvey explains.
  "Ohhhhh. I thought you meant the dominos you play games with!" We all laugh.
  "I agree with Brennan, we should get Dominos." Katie says.
  "Okay, Rosie are you ok with that?" Mrs. Jill asks.
  "Sure."

•••

  "Pizza's here!" Mr. Mike calls from the kitchen. Brennan, Ryan, Katie, Harvey, and I we out on the dock trying to skip rocks into the lake.
  "Last one to get to the house is a rotten egg!" Ryan yells and starts running, buy nobody runs after him.
  "Aw c'mon! You guys are no fun." Ryan whines.
"I'll race you, Ryan!" I offer.
"Okay, Katie, can you count us off?" Ryan asks.
"Sure, 3, 2, 1, go!" Katie says.
Ryan wins by a split second, and of course he has to brag about it because that's just how boys his age are.

"Were you even trying?" Brennan asks me quietly as we step inside the house.
"Not really." I giggle.

"Hey Brennan, can you film for a bit?" Mrs. Jill asks Brennan.
"Sure." Brennan says as he takes the camera from his mom. He turns to me and asks, "Do you mind being vlogged?"
"Nope. You can vlog me eating pizza I guess."
"Sure thing." Brennan flips the camera open and starts filming me. "So Rosie is about to have Dominos for the first time." He says and I nod. "Classic cheese." He says as I take a bite.
"Mmmmmm" I say as I take a bite.
"Do you like it?" Brennan asks. I nod and take another bite. Brennan turns the camera to face himself.
"Okay ladies and gentlemen, the verdict is Rosie likes the pizza!" Brennan announces and I laugh.

We finish eating dinner and I already feel like it's midnight, I hate jet lag.
"I have an idea!" Katie announces. "We should watch a movie."
"Oh, I'm not sure if I can stay up much longer." I say.
"It's no biggie if you fall asleep." Brennan says.
"Whatever you say..."

Brennan's pov

We all get comfy on the couch to watch the movie, and I sit by Rosie. It's only 15 minutes into the movie, and she's fast asleep on my shoulder. I don't mind, though. I want her to get good sleep, so I pick her up off the couch and carry her up the stairs to Ryan and I's room.

  I lay her down on Ryan's bed because that is where she'll be staying while she's here. After I know she's asleep, I go back downstairs to watch the movie.
