As I stood in front of the house, I looked at the address unsurely. Yes, it was the right place. What am I doing here anyway?

Oh yeah, Ricky wouldn't stop nagging me to film videos with them.

And I'm not exaggerating.

He was literally the most persistent person I have ever met. And not a positive persistent, no. He was the negative kind - the annoying kind.

I mean, he himself isn't annoying, but just his constant texting asking me to come was just aggravating.

Maybe it was a bad idea to come h-

"Nora!" Kian opened the door, smiling widely at me. At his side was Jc, carrying a small black puppy, Wishbone, I think was its name, and a slight smile on his face. Jc, not Wishbone.

"Uh, hi, guys," I smiled awkwardly, but I'm sure it came out as a grimace.

"Welcome to our humble abode!" Kian said from next to me. "Would you like a tour?" He asked. I nodded, shrugging my right shoulder as I did.

He started the tour with the first floor, choosing the left side to begin with and pointed to double doors.

"This is Jc's room," he said, opening one of the doors.

"It's a little messy," Jc said, appearing at my side. He immediately grabbed the handle and shut the door.

"This is our kitchen," Kian said, and standing in the - actually very nice and clean - kitchen was a shirtless Connor, dressed in dark blue sweats. He was opening a can of peanut butter. "And that's a naked Connor."

I tried not to focus on his bare stomach.

"Oh, hey, Nora," he said with a nonchalant smile, giving me a slight wave. "Welcome to the o2l house."

"Thanks, it's nice," I looked around at the room. "So far." I added. Connor nodded, gave another wave to Jc, Kian, and I, and left, a bag of potato chips and a can of peanut butter in his hands. Huh.

"Next room," Kian clapped his hands together. "Is the dining room, with our incredibly small dining room table that we don't even use that much."

I nodded and let him guide Jc and I into the next room.

"This," Jc said, "is what we like to call our filming room. This is where all the magic happens."

"This is our living room," Kian said.

"A room in which we live," Jc added, and I chuckled.

"There's the fireplace," Kian pointed. "We don't use it much."

"Ah," I said, nodding along. "I see." The first floor was actually really nice. In all honesty, I wasn't expecting it to be this nice. I guess you could say it's a pleasant surprise.

"Now up the stairs," Jc lead Kian and I up the stairs. The first door, a single door instead of a double like Jc's, was apparently Kian's. He didn't want us going in there, so he blocked it off.

The second, a double door this time, Jc opened and Connor was laying on his bed, eating chips and watching something on his laptop. He looked up at us blankly in between bites of a chip before going back to watching whatever he was watching on his laptop. Mind you, he was still shirtless.

This boy is killing me, I tell you.

Jc lead us to Ricky's door. He twisted the doorknob open, and Ricky was sitting on the floor with a girl, both of them laughing in front of a video camera.

When they turned around, the girl looked very familiar.

"Nora! You actually came!" He faced the camera. "You guys remember Trevor's cousin from his video last Friday, right?" At first I was confused as to why he said last Friday when it was really just yesterday, but then I remembered Trevor telling me about the schedule they have where Ricky is Tuesday, so my guess is that he's filming ahead.
