Michael glanced over when he noticed movement in the corner of his eye. He recognized the woman down the hall as the woman who'd had trouble with her bags on the stairs earlier. Had she been here the entire time? She must have had the right idea considering she'd missed all the commotion in the entrance hall. Maybe it was still going on, but he wasn't about to go check. "Calliope was the hugger?" Michael thought about it for a moment before nodding slowly. "Yeah, I think she was." He followed Jae into the room, glancing around with a small grin. It was hard to tell what this would be like, rooming with someone else. He'd commuted to college from home because it was cheaper. His gaze paused on the bags that must've belonged to Calliope, mouth opening once before abruptly closing again. It looked as if she'd brought enough to last for months, and were those real diamonds? Michael forced his eyes away as he set the second bag on Jae's bed.<br/><br/>At the other man's thanks, he felt a grin tug at his lips and hoped his face didn't look as red as he thought it would. "You don't have to thank me." In fact, maybe it should be the other way around. "Thank you for giving me an excuse to leave. I'm not too keen on meeting a ton of new people at once." Michael wanted to laugh at his previous assumption on how long it would take everyone to arrive. It was as he said it that he realized there were probably cameras in the rooms too, but he couldn't care less at this point. Might as well pretend there weren't any hidden cameras and act like he normally would. He let out a soft breath, thoughts turning to the pool. He wouldn't go as far as to say he didn't like pools. In fact, he enjoyed swimming. Just, not around a lot of people he didn't know. Maybe it would be a good opportunity to meet everyone properly, but he still felt kind of iffy about the entire thing. Maybe he could head back to his room and relax a little bit. Or he could grab his cello and find the entertainment room.<br/><br/>Michael glanced towards Jae as the man spoke up, hesitating. "You don't?" At least he wasn't the only one. "That's not stupid at all. I mean, especially if you don't know how to swim. I'm not a very strong swimmer myself and I wasn't planning on swimming tonight even if I could." He paused, letting out a soft breath of laughter. "Of course, I'm not exactly sure where the kitchen is, but I'd be more than willing to help you find it." Honestly, a meal sounded pretty good right about now. The airplane food just didn't cut it. "And a meal sounds like a good thank you. Let me head to my room real quick while you're getting dressed. I think I got a map of the house somewhere." Michael held up a finger as he backed out of the room, turning once he got to the doorway and heading for his own room. He just had to remember where he put it.<br/><br/>Michael slipped into his room, eyeing his bags with a frown. He remembered looking over the map on the plane so maybe it was in his carry on? He moved the letter off of the bag, setting it on the dresser as he sifted through the contents of his luggage. No, no, no. Michael's brow furrowed until he found the sheet of paper. It was a little crumpled from when he shoved it into the bag after the plane touched down, but otherwise it wasn't too difficult to understand. Feeling triumphant, he folded the map and set it on the counter beside the letter. He then considered changing his clothes too. Honestly, his clothes weren't exceptionally dirty or anything, but getting dressed in something a little more comfortable had a nice ring to it. In the end, he went ahead and changed into a pair of well loved pajama pants (just a little too long for his legs because he hadn't thought to ttry them on in the store) and a black long sleeved shirt. He wasn't going to go outside yet anyway so he didn't see why he shouldn't wear his night clothes.<br/><br/>With a small grin, Michael grabbed the map and headed back down the hall towards Jae's room. He wasn't sure if the man was done yet when he got there though and didn't want to walk in on him, so he knocked. "I found it." He called. Maybe he'd go ahead and give it to Jae. After all, he felt he'd prefer exploring the house rather than using a map all the time. It would only take him a couple of days to figure out where everything was anyway.
