After we finally got out to the volleyball net, after all of Brandon's "oohs and awes" probably meant for the house, we went over to the sports shed and got the volleyball out. It was kind of obvious that Brandon still didn't quite understand the game so he went, "So we just hit the ball over the net?" Which made Jesse groan, run his fingers through his hair and focus his blue eyes on Brandon, "Yes, but you have to make the ball hit the other teams side while not letting it hit your side." Brandon had just given up by then so he just said, "Ok. I'll figure it out." Charlie smiled at that and replied, "Let the games begin, and may the odds be ever in your favor."

We split into teams after laughing our butts off at that random remark. the teams went, Jesse and Brandon, and Charlie and me. After Jessie's argument of since he has a new person he gets to serve first, Charlie and I agreed. When the ball came towards me I yelled, "Mine!" and bumped it over to where Brandon stood looking scared out of his mind, he hit it over to Charlie who bumped it over to me, I set it back over to where he was waiting by the net to spike it over the net making the score 1-0. After that, we got to serve. Charlie wanted to serve, so I let him, considering I'm the worst server in the history of servers. When he hit it over Brandon ran over to the net and spiked it down, hard, making the score 1-1. After a while we all got tired considering the score was 20-21, Jesse and Brandon won. While they were celebrating I yelled, "Ok ladies, we understand you won! Now get your butts over here." Brandon ran over and said, "What's up, Kaitlyn?" The truth was, I wanted him to make himself at home, and pretty much stay here forever. but I knew that wasn't possible so instead I just replied, "Do you guys want lemonade? It's in the middle of the summer and the thermometer says it almost 97 degrees out here." Without hesitation they all said, at the same time, "Yes!"

After I made the lemonade, and we were all sitting around a big, modern table, Jesse and Charlie started pretty much interrogating Brandon with questions like, "So where you from?", "Why are you here?" I jumped in to save him before he could say anything stupid, somewhere along the lines of, "I came here because I met Kaitlyn here online and after 5 months of talking and getting to know each other I fell in love with her, so I traveled all the way from Alaska to be with her." Yeah that wouldn't be good. So instead I said, "He's from Alaska, and he's an exchange student that I am going to let live here with me." Well at least some of it is true, he will be staying with me to go to school for a little while.. I just don't know exactly how long. I probably stunned them into silence seeing as they haven't said a single word since I told them.. Ya know. Finally Charlie spoke up, "Cool man, can't wait to show you how we do things around here." Brandon nervously glanced at me, then said, "How do you guys do things around here?" This isn't gonna go down well. Jesse started to say "Well first we learn respe-" Before I interrupted him to say, "First, I'm going to give you a tour of the house, and show you your room." Jesse narrowed his piercing blue eyes at me, while Charlie looked at me with curiosity in his eyes, and relief flooding Brandon's face. "A tour would be awesome. Your house is killer so far." I thought about Brandon's comment then smiled. I mean, who wouldn't? He doesn't know that I'M the millionaire with me being a model and all. But I don't think telling him that would end very well. Still smiling I said, "Thanks, I helped design it." With that, I led him to the big stainless steel kitchen, everything is either stainless steel, snow white carpet, or grey and black leather, and showed him where the food is kept and to help himself whenever he wants, because we get a full restock every two weeks, with all the healthy, junk, and snack size food you can imagine. Then, I led him out of the kitchen to the tech room, where we have 5 white iPads, two for my parents, and three for Charlie, Jesse, and I, 3 white or silver Mac book airs, and two big touchscreen Apple computers, one for me to handle my photo shoot schedule and to review and edit the pictures before they are sent or put anywhere, and one for my mom to handle her work, or whatever she does on there, all put in a little open lit up cubby in the white wall, above a big white leather L shaped couch. After that, I led him to the big living room with enough room to fit about 100 people and couches to fit about 50 each. I led him pass the massive grand entry to the big platinum stair case, which led to all the bedrooms, to his room which was a big room with a white king sized California bed, a chandelier above it, and a big balcony that looked over the massive field, the running track, the tanning area, and the rose garden. Great. That's, like, the only places I like to hang out besides the kitchen, a huge walk-in closet already filled with designer men's clothes, workout, fancy, and casual, the bathroom being a reflective sliver with a big walk-in shower, with all the shampoo, conditioner, shaving cream and razors, then there was a big jet stream bath tub with a cabinet stocked with Epsom salt, scented bubble bath, and candles. Then I showed him my room, which was right next door to his, which had three light silver reflective purple walls, the other wall being a big mirror, also had a big walk-in closet filled with designer clothes, for workouts, fancy events, and casual clothes, but then there was my modeling clothes all stuck in one corner. Thankfully he didn't notice. I didn't feel the need to show him my bathroom but he insisted, it was massive. With a shower that had a waterfall shower head in it, a separate walk-in body blow dryer in it with all my lotions, shaving creams and razors, and a small moveable shower head with lavender and aloe infused water to rinse my legs off after moisturizing. When I finally looked at Brandon his eyes were so big they could be considered planets, ignoring them I showed him my makeup cabinet, which was ginormous by the way, my mirror, the size of Mars (not literally but it's still ceiling to counter which only about 5' off the ground considering how short I am.), and then I showed him my other closet that had bathing suits, and hang out clothes. He asked how big my parents room is because if my room is this big theirs must be 10 times the size of this. It is. I love them very much so I naturally made their room the biggest in the whole house. The next thing he said was probably due to speechlessness but I couldn't be sure, "So where are your parents again?" I told him they were at the airport waiting to get on a flight to Alaska, ironically their favorite place to visit. "Oh." Was all he said.

When we went back downstairs, Charlie and Jesse were cleaning to pantry out. That's one of the many things us three have in common, we can eat however much we want and we won't get fat. But we also exercise like maniacs.. So that's another thing we have in common, we are all athletic, and love to do sports, although Jesse could be a little more motivated. We realized it was nearly 10:30, making Charlie and Jesse look at us and Jesse say, "What took y'all so long?" Which was kind of a stupid question considering him of all people should know that the house is incredibly big.
