Xander pulled up a black Cadillac in front of the house«mansion entrance, I stand corrected.
"Get in," he said as he swung open the door.
Confused I shook my head, maybe it was the fact that Xavier was still close to me.
"I don't understand, you were to ask you were to your me around."
"Where are we going," I asked again as Xavier gently nudged me towards the back seat.
"Look, there isn't much to know about the house," Xander clarified.
"We have three sitting rooms, more than I can count bedrooms, a music room, a kitchen, a ballroom, maze garden, jacuzzis, swimming pool, tennis court, will tell you more if I remember ok?" he turned back to look at me.
"Noted," I affirmed. "But you haven't answered my q______"
"We are meeting up with some friends on the beach," Xavier replied. "Don't worry Xander got you covered."
"Oh", I said.
No one commented on the way. The only sound I could hear was the roar of the car engine as Xander sped toward his destination.
It didn't matter, I was grateful for the solitude.

"How long still they will be here?" the pinched voice whirred. She tugged down the neck of her t-shirt and impatiently tapped her foot with a frown on her face.
"Those brothers always act like this, if I wasn't looking forward to seeing the girl Xander keep yapping about, I won't be here," she complained.
"Calm down, babe." Hands stretched toward the girl, cradling her face.
She focused enough to glimpse, amber eyes looking at her with concern.
Then she nodded, to affirm she was at ease.
"You are so impatient at times sis, it's not even up to 20 minutes we've been here." an airy voice droned out.
The said impatient one glanced up from her human cocoon to find the exact likeness of her herself sitting straight up on the Jeep they came with.
She flashed her tongue out mockingly in reply.
"That so childish," another voice stated.
"Mind you business Tony," she said, glaring sideways to where he stood.
He laughed back in response.
"Look who's arrived," he boomed as Xander's car pulled into the drive-in.
"Hey man," Xander said as he got out of the vehicle. "Sorry, we delayed."
"No, problem man," he replied, pulling Xander into a half hug.
"Hey, Xavier," he greeted also in the same way.
"Hey man," Xavier greeted, he then turned to nod in greeting towards the rest
Before the boys could mutter a word, one of the girls, rushed to Glory's side and held her hands.
"I'm Kayla, and you are?" She shook her hands in excitement.
Staring at the girl in front of her, I didn't know what to make of her.
"I'm Glory, nice to meet you?"
"Well, nice to meet you, Glory. Oh and this is Leo, the one to your left is Tony, he is a loud mortherfucker. That's my twin sister, Kay. She is the calm one." She said, almost as if she's forgotten others were there.
My brows hitch up. "And you are the crazy one, right?."
She is amusing, this girl.
"And you are very pretty," Kayla replied, lifting my chin to analyze my face.
"Those dark brown eyes look so deep, I feel I could stare into your soul, look at those ears, those cheekbones, long lashes, even your nose." Tapping my arm she continued, did you get a nose job 'cause your nose looks too pointed for you to be Nigerian."
I stepped back a bit from her touch.
Percieving how uncomfortable I was getting, the other girl, Kay came to my rescue.
"Stop bugging her will you?" she pulled Kayla away from me.
"Sorry, she is a bit of a handful." She turned to me.
"It's okay," I assured her gently.
The boys were just looking at the scene, amusement written on their faces.
"It's, nice to meet you, Tony and Leo," I greeted.
"And you Glory, you just made here a whole lot interesting," Leo chuckled. Tony laughed loudly along with him.
"Are you done harassing my best friend, can I have her back," Xander voiced. Glaring at him, Kayla gritted out. "Your best friend??"
"Relax Kayla, a girl can have more than one best friend," Kay soothed.
"True," Kayla replied, calming down.
"Come on, carry the stuff you need, we got to go. The last one there is a rotten egg." Xavier called as he ushered them along.
