I just got a little spooked ya know?"</em><br/><br/>Darren looked at Babydoll next to him and smiled widely at her, nudging her shoulder in return. He had seen her leave the group and return after a few minutes, wondering what had gotten her mind changed. A secret order by The House? Or had she calmed... his advance had been pretty straightforward after all.<br/><br/>"Not a problem, Babydoll - I can see why you got spooked." Darren laughed, resting back and propping himself with his hand on the stone tiles around the pool. "After all, I wasn't really gentle, huh? Maybe we shouldn't jump the start. So... let's say we get a do-over? Including the rooming, and including your piggy back rides."<br/><br/>Darren's eyes roamed the terrace that was basking in the afternoon sun. Kit, Angel and Cray were still putting their heads together, Ana kept her distance in the pool and eyed them, like she was still assessing. It looked like a rather peaceful scene - a group of young, good looking people sharing a house, and in for some fun... well, until maybe the rivalries would start. But with three guys and three girls, and each of the girls looking really good, he saw no reason to break out the battle axe yet. Yeah, after all, why should there be a loser after a few weeks of practically paid vacation, including crazy challenges?<br/><br/>"You know, sometimes I shy away from groups as well - used to do so when I was a kid. I overcame it by forcing myself to strong approaches," he told Babydoll. "And eventually, just those became ingrained."<br/><br/>Dillon lifted the bottle of his beer to his lips and emptied it in one gulp. Next, he dragged his feet from the water and squatted on his haunches, with his back to Babydoll. "However, I'm glad you don't throw me out of your... room. Come on - let's see if there's another drink for you in the bar, and then let's see how the others are doing. Maybe the bar will make us do a double feature commercial."
