It's been two weeks since we told Olivia and she hasn't told a soul. We have another dinner with Ryan and his family tonight, only Luke and Kane and Olivia are coming too. It was around six when they showed up. Mom was still getting ready so Ryan's mom went to help her. We're going to this Italian restaurant. I was doing Olivia's makeup when the door to my room opened.

I looked up to see Jazzy with the four guys behind her ALL in suits. Olivia was the first to speak.

"Hi"

"Hey" Caleb replied as they all filed in and sat on my bed, watching what I was doing very keenly. I picked up my highlight and a brush and started to apply it to her face.

"What does that do?" Luke asked

"Defines her cheekbones, makes them stand out, adds to her face, contours with the rest of her make up" I reply

"I have no idea what that means" . I turned around to him.

"It makes her cheeks sparkly" I replied to him.

Paige walks in my room in shorts and a oversized white shirt and her hair in a towel, fresh out the shower.

"Dress or pants?" She asks us. I don't miss the look in Luke's eyes as her watches her.

"Pants" Olivia and I answer simultaneously.

Riley walks in.

"Wear white or else I'm slitting your throat"

"Violent much?" I ask her. Sometimes I think Riley would love to kill everyone in her path, it scares me.

"Not at all and your doing my hair" she says as soon as I tell Olivia she was done.

"I should be getting paid for this" I told her as she sat down. I decided I would curl her hair, so I plugged in the curling iron.

"Why are you four so quiet" she asked them while we were waiting for the curling iron to heat up.

"We're observing" Kane replied

"Observing what" I asked

"Why girls take so long to get ready" Ryan told me.

"We don't take long" Paige said walked back into the room dressed along with Olivia who was also dressed. (In all white outfits). I was the last one who needed to get dressed. My hair and makeup were done already.

"Yes you do" Ryan said. They boys nodded and agreed with him.

"No, you just get ready faster than us" Olivia corrects them. I finished Riley's hair and went into the closet.

I found a loose long sleeved white crop top and white leather plants that were ripped at the sides. I paired that with white pumps. I grabbed a bag and walked downstairs to see who was ready.

A little while later we left and went to the restaurant. We ate, talked and had a good time. Nothing really exciting happened. We drove home. Ryan, his parents, and the boys went to Ryan's house and we went to ours along with Olivia.

"Wait girls I have something to tell you" my mom called after us. We went back and sat in the living room.

"So, Ryan's parents are going away on business for 3 weeks and they weren't comfortable leaving Caleb and Ryan by their selves. So me being the good friend that I am offered to watch over them." She told us

"So your going to be checking up on them?" Riley asked her.

"No, they'll be living here". At this point my eyes went wide.

"They... Ryan and Caleb... are going to be living here. In this house, with all of us" I clarified.

"Yes, but this is a good thing. It's now easier for you all to get boyfriends" she told us, clapping excitedly. I'm just here contemplating this. Contacts all the time now.

There was a knock on the door and my mom went to go get it. I peeked around the corner and saw all the boys filing in two of them with bags in there hands.

"There here" I whispered to the girls

"Let's go upstairs" Paige whispered back

We tried to tip toe upstairs while their backs were turned, but my mom being my mom caught us. "Girls"

"Shit" I heard Riley whisper under her breath. We turned around slowly and saw them all looking at us.

"Yup" I said and cracked a fake smile.

"Show then to their rooms" she told us while giving all the boys a small shove towards us.

I nodded "okay"

We started walking up the stairs towards one of the guest bedrooms right next to the bathroom.

I pointed at Caleb "Yours" I told him.

I walked towards another bedroom right across from mine.

"Yours" I pointed at Ryan. "Enjoy your lives" I told them while walking into my room.

It was 9:30 when Olivia came into my room.

"Netflix?" She asked. I smiled, got out of bed and went to get Riley and Paige. I don't know where the boys were. Me and Paige picked a show while Olivia and Riley made the popcorn. We decided on watching Stranger Things and put pillows and blankets on the floor to lay on. We binged watched almost every episode in season one before we got disturbed.

"It's like 2:00 AM, why are you guys still up" A shirtless very tired looking Kane with Luke and Caleb beside him asked us. I guess Kane and Luke are staying the night, since all three boys are walking around my house shirtless. Riley paused the tv.

"Stranger Things" she told him and pointed to the tv.

"We're watching with you" Caleb announced. They came towards us and sat down on a blanket.

"Where's the fourth one" Riley asked

"Taking a shower" Luke replied. She restarted the show and we finished the episode we were on and started a new one before Ryan came down the stairs, shirtless. I have a feeling I'm going to have to get used to shirtless boys around the house.

"What we watching?" He asked

"Stranger Things" I replied distractedly. I must've been so distracted I imagined him sitting down next to me, kissing me on the cheek, and then watching the show like nothing happened. I would've thought I imagined it if Olivia didn't give me that kissy face, which resulted in me sticking my tongue out at her.

We watched the rest of the episode in silence until we all eventually fell asleep.
