"Holy shit," Hailee muttered as she stepped into the foyer of Hunter's expansive house. Her wide eyes scanned it's entirety, settling on the enormous ivory staircase in front of us and the bronze, curling, wrought iron handle that guided it upwards.

The sparkling chandelier that hung above was nothing short of blinding as they all stared in awe.

Riley was amused at Hailee's reaction, reminding her of her own the first time that she laid eyes on the grandiose house.

She stood beside her, hands shoved deep in the back pockets of her denim shorts, "Wait 'til you see the gaming room."

Riley looked at her sideways, the way Hailee's eyes shone bewitched her.

The first time she had seen her after six years was at the airport this afternoon. She had disheveled hair and her hazel eyes were clouded with sleepy anticipation.

It was adorable.

She wore grey, baggy sweatpants and a tight-fitting dark sweater. Her smooth hair fell in natural waves that beauty gurus would die for.

Even through the thick sweater, Riley could see the curves of her feminine body and knew by the way she moved that, under all that cloth, there was nothing but muscle.

'Ha, wait till you get outside,' Riley mentally laughed, thinking about the raging June sun that awaits.

After a series of hugs and 'Look at how you've grown!' from the older folk, they were off.

Riley was pleased to meet Sam, Hailee never shuts up about her and it was clear to see why. Besides being incredibly good-looking, she was sharp-tongued and entertaining. She was everything Hailee described and more.

She could see why they were so close.

As soon as they got outside Hailee tore off the sweater and Riley chuckled.

She playfully scowled at Riley, "You could have warned me, it's hard enough to deal with my own hotness, now I have to cope with the sun too?"

"Cocky aren't we?"

"Cocky implies it's not justified," she smirked.

Riley shook her head incredulously but remained silent. 

She couldn't argue with that.

She was trying her best not to stare at Hailee's toned arms and defined stomach that was displayed through her fitted white tank top, to no avail.

'She's straighter than Dakota's hair Riley, calm down,' she chastised herself.

'But, when it's hot, Kota's hair gets frizzy and curly,' the other side of her confuted.

And so her own thoughts warred against each other through the short drive to Hunter's house.

"Okay girls, follow me to your rooms," Hunter rasped, struggling under the weight of all four suitcases.

"Oh, lemme help you there, Sam packs for a horde of people, it would seem," Hailee jabbed.

I tried not to gawk at the way her biceps popped when she lifted the suitcase out of his hands.

"Oh shut up, you'll thank me later when you have a hot date and come to me begging for make-up and shoes," Sam huffed.

Diana and Skylar had already run off to the living room to catch up. I swear, the both of them acted like two teenage girls sometimes.

Hailee had grabbed two suitcases from Hunter, leaving him with the biggest and a medium sized case.

"Time to finally put all those gym muscles to use," Kota patted him on the shoulder, "unless, you're gonna need some help there buddy?"
