In Spain
We drove in silence for another twenty-five minutes before the car ducked into a parking garage underneath a huge building, then traveled up into an elusive parking floor where security checked the car into a numbered spot and Eric parked in a spot marked '4' and we all got out.
James got my suitcase out of the car and refused to let me carry it. I didn't want to get too close to him because of the paparazzi so I didn't argue with him.
I thank him and follow him into a small
but very luxurious elevator. I became a little nervous about meeting the guys as James clicked a button for the fourth floor.
When we get to the fourth floor, the elevator dings and I follow James and Eric out. As we walk into a huge living room, Eric calls out.
"Guys Freya has arrived!"
Too busy looking around, I didn't notice
that James and Eric silently walk in front of me joining the other guys.
I forgot my worries as I met four sets
of eyes in the hallway. James and
Eric and between them stood two guys I recognized as Tyler and Ryan and neither looked very happy to see me, but
Tyler was trying more than Ryan to
put up a friendly face as he introduced
himself, actually shaking my hand.
"Hi, my name is Tyler, it's nice to meet you. I'm sorry you've been kidnapped to stay here but I'll do my best to make you comfortable while you're here" His English had a British accent to it and he fronted a friendly smile. His hand was large, pale in color, strong and cold and somehow his handshake gave me a weird feeling. I can not exactly pinpoint what it is but I know that it's not a good one.
Ryan made a brief introduction, explaining how they had just five minutes before I had arrived here found out about James and Eric's plan to bring me here.
He was stern, everything about him screamed authority. It was nothing like how Julia had described him the couple of times they had talked about the guys, but I didn't mind it. The way he flexed his jaw while talking sharpened his jawline to a point where I think it could cut something, and how his arms were sternly crossed across his chest highlighted his muscles stretching out his shirt. I had to blink a couple of times to remind myself to look away.
Before I can introduce myself, I hear more familiar voices coming near, and Ryan stepped away from me so that the other members can also greet me too.
"Freyaaaa!!!!!!!", both of them called, and soon I'm right smack in the middle of a huge group hug. After about a minute of almost being snuggled to death, Eric and Tyler manage to sort of calm the guys down.
The two men from whom Eric and Tyler have just saved me from are my good friends Daniel and Kevin. I didn't know they were friends or knew James but I was not very surprised to see that these guys are friends of James. Since all of them work in the same field.
James, Ryan, and Kevin are singers who rule Billboard most of the time. And Eric and Tyler are amazing actors who have won multiple prestigious awards for their work. And last but not least is Daniel. He is a director and producer and has even won an Oscar for director and many other awards.
And how I know Daniel and Kevin well. I met them at one of my exhibitions and they were the highest bidder for my work. After that we exchanged numbers and after meeting them multiple times we became really good friends. Oh, now that I think about it I think I know who James was talking about liking my work obviously they were Kevin and Daniel.
James speaks once the guys quiet
down a bit. "Alright, so first of all, let's all
Welcome, Freya !!!! We're (obviously)
really glad you're here. Even though you already know most of them I'll formally present you everyone" James said.
"That cold guy is Ryan you can also call him Iceberg, besides him, is Tyler, the one who drives us here is Eric and these two who just suffocate you is Daniel and Kevin." he pointed at each member to help you to associate a face with their name.
"And guys, meet my sister's friend best friend who I also my friend, Freya" James introduced you to the five boys. "Hello, it's nice to meet you " I smiled and nodded my head.
