Seven

"Do you live in a zoo?" Trevor asked.

"Come on, it's not that bad", I entered the house and switched on the light bulbs.

"Aaaaah... It's even scarier with the lights on", Trevor exclaimed and quickly switched the lights off.

"Seb will totally freak out wh...", Justin said, turning to face Seb whose attention was now drawn away from his phone immediately he heard his name.

Everywhere was a little dark, so I opened the curtains so that the beautiful rays of sunlight would light up my house.

His eyes were wide open looking at the mess in my house. He quickly pocketed his phone and turned to me.

"How do you live like this?" He asks

"It's not that messy. I'll go change, make yourselves at home", I called out as I walked into my bedroom.

"We can only feel at home when this place looks like a home", Seb called out.

I closed my room door and immediately got out of my uniform. The smoothie stained uniform was sticking to my skin and was very uncomfortable.

I took my outfit for the day, which was a white long sleeved corporate shirt and a blue denim bum short. I removed my contact lens and wrapped my towel around my chest before heading to the bathroom.

I took a long shower under the mildly heated water and that helped to relax my nerves. As I worked my lavender scented into my hair, I somehow managed to forget that I had guests in the living room.

I got out of the bathroom and had just worn my contact lenses back when I heard sounds coming from my living room so I quickly wrapped my wet hair in a towel and wore a robe.

"What's making all this noise?" I asked, but was caught off-guard by what I saw.

My living room wasn't as messy as it was when I got home from school. The four boys had shared themselves in a way that all of them were working.

Justin was wiping off the dust from furniture, Sebastian was vacuuming and Trevor was mopping the floors.

"Okay, are you guys secretly working for a cleaning agency because you clean up good", I thanked them

"Shouldn't you be saying thank you? I'm working my ass out, dusting these furniture", Justin complained

"I just did", I said and turned on my heels.

"Helena, I just checked the pantry, refrigerators and even the cabinets. I couldn't find anything that I could use to prepare a decent meal", André came out of the kitchen saying.

"You can cook? That's badass", I complimented him

"You can't clean or cook?"

"I've always had maids or cooks to do that for me", I answered shrugging my shoulders

"But we missed our restaurant tour because of you and you promised us lunch at your place", Justin pouted.

"I was going to order pizza. I'll be right back", I stated the obvious.

I went into my bedroom to quickly change into the outfit I had picked earlier. The white shirt was a little big, so I tucked it into the bum shorts. The look I got was really cute and simple. I combed my hair and packed it up in a messy bun with some loose strands framing my face.

I wore a nude lipstick, applied mascara to my lashes and sprayed some rose water on my face before going out to meet the guys.

Justin was laughing at a video he had on his phone, Seb was typing away while André and Trevor were huddled up in one spot.

Justin licked his lower lip, "damn girl, you might not clean your house, but you sure know how to clean up too". He stared at me from head to toe.

I rolled my eyes at him, but still blew him a kiss that he quickly caught and pocketed.

"Excuse me, I have to get this", Seb said finally looking up from his phone, but not at me. He totally ignored me and walked out of the house to take his call outside.

I felt a little disappointed that he wasn't given me any attention. I always receive attention and I just couldn't get why he was paying any attention to me...

Disappointed, I walked over to where Trevor and André were whispering to each other and writing something down on a paper because Justin had gone back to watching another video.

"And what are you boys doing?" I asked

"We're making a list of foodstuffs that you desperately need", I said as I checked the list out.

"Milk, flour, cheddar cheese, bean sprouts? What will I do with all these ingredients when I can't cook? This morning, I tried to boil an egg and I did that wrong. Way to rub my incompetence in my face, guys", I dropped the paper on the table.

"We weren't doing that. Cleaning your house for you is a pleasure to Seb, and cooking is a hobby to André... You told us to make ourselves feel at home in your place. This is our way of feeling at home", Trevor said as he held my hands in his, rubbing circles on the back which calmed me down.

"So you guys are doing all this for me on your own free will?" I asked with a bit of a worry.

Justin didn't even look up from his phone. Trevor nodded his head and André just smiled.

"Then I think we're going to be best of friends", I squealed a little with a huge smile on my face.

Trevor immediately hugged me tightly, then he jumped up, punching his fist in the air and whopping excitedly.

When he was done, I tiptoed to reach the top of his head and patted it, "you're so cute" and he gave me very cute smile.

Seb entered into the house back, "guys, there's been a little trouble on the road and the delivery has been scheduled for another day".

Then they kept talking about the cancellation of the deliveries would be bad for business and I was starting to think that they're drug dealers.

I went back into my room to put on my white Nike sneakers and took a white Chanel mini bag and my credit card. I put my uniform in a bag so I could drop it off at the dry cleaners.

"Give me the list, I'll drop my uniform at the dry cleaners and go shopping from there", I stretched out my hand.

"Seb, can you please go with Helena? The rest of us are going to be busy", André asked.
