Even though Janessa knew that Larrin and Erin were talking she had no idea what they were talking about.  She wasn’t the type to butt in either and try to listen in to other people’s conversations.  She went back to her preparing of food and was so into what she was doing that she didn’t even know when Larrin and Erin came into the room.  Hearing Larrin’s Scottish accent behind her Janessa turned around to answer him only to find that she couldn’t speak and her cheeks were going red.  Forcing herself literally not to look at the half naked man that was standing in front of her in just a towel around his waist.<br/><br/>Getting back her voice Janessa finally responded to his question.  “You don’t have to help.  You are our guest but if you still want to help you could finish peeling potatoes.  But you don’t have to.”  Janessa had no idea as her eyes took in his form when she turned around while speaking to him that Erin had done the same thing earlier.  She couldn’t help but notice the muscles under the lean frame of tan skin that covered the handsome man.  She had noticed that his body was void of hair other than the hair on his head and the stubble on his chin which she found slightly odd.  Finally realizing that she had been staring Janessa swiftly turned her head back toward the steaks she was cooking.<br/><br/>Somehow she realized that Larrin’s eyes were on her even if it was just for a moment as she felt Erin fall into step with helping by going to get plates.  Janessa heard the cupboard open vaguely as she flipped the steaks over to start cooking the other side not realizing what was about to happen.  She heard the slight clink of plates as Erin pulled the plates down but she immediately realized something wasn’t right instinctively.  She didn’t move power fast enough and the plates shattered against the ground making Janessa’s eyes go wide in Erin’s direction.  Seeing Erin’s smile had her biting her own lip in amusement after making sure that her roommate wasn’t hurt at all.<br/><br/>As the other girl went to get the broom and dustpan Janessa let out a small sigh before an almost shocked look came across her face at Erin’s words.  Seeing the questioning look Erin was sending her she knew her friend wanted to share their secrets but not without her permission.  Remembering the girls’ conversation from before Janessa knew the only way to get Larrin to open up, they would have to let out a few secrets as well.  She didn’t know quite as much as Erin seemed to know about their surprise guest but she knew enough that she wanted him to be comfortable in their presence.  “Yes, yes…  Things always do seem to break or blow up around me…”  She tried to keep her voice light unsure if he would get a hint or not from her words though she was still not sure if telling him was right.  Her mind feeling at the moment like it was in a tilt-a-whirl going around and around.
