We reached a pristine white building soon enough, mindless flirting between Finn and Felicity were clogging up my brain.
I gave Jack a look and he smiled at me. Oh dear, that smile could do things to me. The minute I saw Jack, my heart had melted. There was just something about his blue-green eyes and perfect quiff that made my insides all fuzzy.
"We're here!" Jack squealed excitedly. Finn and Felicity looked up at us before Finn kissed her hand once more. Aww, the both of them were simply too adorable to handle.
We pulled up in front of a large white building. "Woah," I breathed. "Is this your house?" Finn smiled as he pulled Felicity's bags along with him.
"Well, our apartment is upstairs if that's what you mean," he winked at Felicity and she turned red. Finn entered the lobby and Jack ushered me in, pulling my bag with him.
Once in the lift, Felicity and I were slightly shocked when we saw the lift attendant inside. This was not really expected.
"Morning George, bring us back up please!" Jack flashed a smile at George who grinned politely and pushed the button for the top floor.
When the lift bell sounded, the doors opened and my mouth dropped. They lived in a freaking penthouse?!
"It's not a penthouse, just that its the biggest apartment in this building," Finn went all defensive on his wealth. I coughed and immediately headed straight for the balcony.
"Wait, I thought you boys were the same age as us?" Felicity spoke, tugging on Finn's sleeve like a child. Finn blushed and he nodded his head.
"We are but when we receive news that we had to be your escorts around town until the term started our parents and yours agreed that it would be best if we lived together for now," Jack spoke and his voice sent chills down my spine.
I smiled at him and Jack winked. Oh, geez, could this boy honestly get any hotter?
FELICITY POV
This was amazing! Not only did we get the best view in London but we also get to live with Finn and Jack!!
I squealed in excitement and ran all over the house, searching for a room for me. I entered the medium sized one that was just across the kitchen and giggled giddily.
"I see you found your room," someone said. I whipped around and found Finn leaning against the door frame, crossing his arms across his chest.
Man, this boy was hot. To top it off, we had so much in common as well! I grinned and nodded to him who gently pulled my suitcase in and lay it beside my bed.
I stood up from bouncing on my bed and walked over to him. "Thank you for helping me with my bags, Finn," I leant forward to hug him and I felt his muscular arms wrap around my waist.
"Anything for you, darling," he whispered against my skin and chills went down my spine. We pulled back and smiled. I wondered if he would make any other move but he turned around and walked out the door soon after, mumbling that I needed time to rest.
My insides were stirring and fuzzy, almost as if I were in love. But it couldn't be, I had only known him for less than a day! Besides, I've flirted with so many others before him. So why did this feel any different?
BETH POV
I had dumped my bags, and shrugged off my trench coat and booties, opting for the more comfortable knit sweater and Uggs as I walked into the living room where I found Jack watching television.
"'Sup, Jack! Whatcha doing," I grinned at him and sat beside him. He chuckled and shook his head, his arm shifting to land on the couch behind me.
"Actually, I meant to ask the both of you if you were comfortable with meeting a few of our friends here in London. I thought it'd be good for you two to get to know more people so you wouldn't be so lonely without me," he shot me a wink and I chuckled, nodding.
His eyes lit up and he ran to tell Felicity just as the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" I shouted to house and slid on the slippery wooden floor towards the door. I flung the door open and saw three boys and one girl that had the most ridiculous faces on.
"Oh, sorry. We thought you'd be Jack," one boy wearing a SnapBack pulled a face and I smiled.
"He'll be right out. Come have a seat first, though!" I gestured for them to enter and all three boys did so dutifully one after the other but the girl remained still, staring at me with a bright smile on her gorgeous face.
"Hi! I'm Zoe Sugg! Jack told us that they'd be having two new girls with them and I was just too excited to no longer be the only girl among them so here I am!" Man, could she talk fast. She was also particularly bubbly. She and Felicity will get along perfectly fine.
I smiled as she bounced into the house, sitting between the one with the SnapBack and another one with dark hair.
Jack ran out of his room, skidding to a stop when he noticed the people seated on the couch. A grin came onto his face and he jumped on all of them, making all of them groan.
"Jack, aren't you going to introduce us?" One with dirty blonde hair said as he stood up and strode towards me when Jack made no inclination of getting off them.
"Marcus Butler, lovely to meet you and may I just say that LA was a lovely place!" He shook my hand and I blushed slightly. I was never good with new people.
"Alright, mate, don't need to flirt with her first." Jack seemed annoyed as he stood up and walked toward me, slotting himself between Marcus and I. Marcus threw me a wink and I smiled at Jack.
"Sam Pepper at your service, milady!!" The one with the SnapBack stood up and took an exaggerated bow, taking off his cap. I laughed at him and he simply gave me a cheeky face. I think Sam and I were about to be good friends very soon.
Sam sat back down beside Zoe who smiled up at him while the dark haired boy finally stood up. "Alfie Deyes, wonderful to meet you!" He grinned and pulled me in for a hug which made me go even redder.
The four of them began goofing off on the couch while Zoe and I talked. Turns out we had a lot in common and we had even traded numbers five minutes into meeting each other.
"Beth, did you happen to see my hair dryer?" Felicity screamed as she walked out of her room in nothing but a towel, her blonde hair soaking wet.
The boys stopped goofing off as they turned to stare at Felicity. Sam wolf-whistled and Zoe shot him a glare. Felicity was stunned, she simply stood there unable to move in shock.
"What is all this racket about?" Finn appeared from the hallway, his hair arranged haphazardly from his nap. He stood beside Felicity and saw her standing in the towel, then turned to stare at the four boys that were eyeing her.
Immediately, Finn turned red and with one arm, he slung it around Felicity and guided her back into her room while his other hand flipped the four boys off behind his back.
"Well, someone's possessive," Marcus mocked and the four of them began goofing off once more. Zoe seemed to still be fuming as she stood up, walked over to Sam and smacked his head before returning to our conversation.
FINN POV
I can't believe they just stared at her like she was a piece of meat! She would be delicious, nonetheless, but still!
I sat on her bed, waiting for her to come out of her bathroom dressed and dry. I stared at the ceiling and began tossing up a pillow and catching it.
"Thanks for that, Finny, you really are a lifesaver." Her voice rang from the bathroom as she got out, dressed in a wool sweater, dark wash skinny jeans and Uggs. The nickname she gave me made me smile like an idiot as she looked at me funnily.
"Ready to meet them now that you're properly dressed and not in a towel?" I raised an eyebrow at her and she blushed. I grabbed her hand and pulled her with me as we walked into the living room once more.
"Everyone, I'd like you to meet Felicity May Parker. That's Marcus, Alfie, Sam and Zoe." I pointed them out to her and she smiled at each one of them. Sam stopped giving her dirty looks, probably thanks to Zoe no doubt.
Jack coughed and I turned my attention away from her and toward him. He gestured to our hands and I looked down. Oh, they were still intertwined. I quickly let go of her hand and, blushing, went to sit beside Jack while she moved beside Beth.
"Seems like you've got it bad, huh," Jack muttered the minute I sat down. Oh Jack, you have no idea.
