He Didn't Hear Her At First, But Smiled Softly As He Turned To See It Was Madison Sitting Next To Him.

he didn't hear her at first, but smiled softly as he turned to see it was Madison sitting next to him. "well, at least I'm not alone then," he said, letting out a quiet laugh. he welcomed the hug, letting his own arms wrap around her as well. "I know you will be. we both know I'm the one who's gonna wind up in trouble," he joked.

Maddie walked into the kitchen, seeing Rudy sitting there. "Ru?" She asked softly, not expecting to see him. She can see that he was lost in thought, before sitting down next to him. "If you're insane, I am insane too." She said with a slight laugh and wrapping her arms around her friend. "It's okay. We're going to be okay..." She assured him.

"that is a good point. gotta hope I won't need to hide away from people too many times, but it's good to know there is somewhere to go," he replied, shaking his head. "well that's what I'm hoping anyways. as long as the something new doesn't drive me too crazy." he looked back at the other man as he explained his own reasons for being here. "well, good for you. a lot of people just let everyone think what they want about them and not do a thing about it."

"it is. and the perfect hiding spot if you ever need some alone time. which we will all need at some point, i'm sure." louis chuckled as he was sure with so many people stuck in this house together, there were going to be moments where people would get annoyed and just don't want to be around one another. when you got different personalities, they're bound to clash. "sounds like a good enough reason. never a bad thing to try something new." shrugging, he wasn't 100% sure this was a good idea but he didn't want to let his management and his sisters down. "people around me told me this would be a good idea. to show people the real me, i guess. seems like people like to have a different image of me and they want me to show them i'm not who they think i am." louis might act like he doesn't care what people think about him but sometimes it does get in his head.

"are you? should I be running away now?" he chuckled, looking up at the man. he listened to the other man. he recognized him but hadn't heard about the negative publicity he had gone through. "those are all pretty good reasons... I don't really have a reason for why I'm here. I kinda just said yes," he said, laughing again.

"well, like, i dunno about you, but i'm definitely fucking insane, dude," pete laughed. "hoping to redeem myself from uh... a lot of negative publicity? in the past," he laughed. "but i've also like changed so much over the last few years and i kinda wanna show people that, i guess. plus, the bigger reason is just that i didn't wanna be alone since we just got back from tour...." he shrugged with a chuckle.

"right? yeah, don't know what I was expecting but this is better," he agreed, leaning against the railing. he hadn't really looked into what he was signing up for before he showed up here. "uh, didn't really put much thought into it really. just got out of a relationship. like to do new things, figured what the hell?" he answered, looking over. "what about you?"

"The view is amazing here." Louis stood outside on the balcony, taking in his surroundings. Part of him wasn't sure what he was doing here as it might not be the best idea to join a reality show with all the backlash he's been getting lately, but his management thought differently. They think that when people see the real Louis, they might ease up on him. And maybe his sisters kind of edged him on too. Noticing another presence nearby, he sighed softly. "What made you decide to join this experience?" Maybe it won't be so bad as this could be his little getaway, just a break from everything. @wildewoodstarters

rudy barely shared anything about his actual life on social media and now he had signed up to be filmed constantly. guess he was just panicking about how much people would be seeing. "yeah, guess I'll get used to it," he said, not fully convinced of it but he might get there. he chuckled as the other man diverted the conversation to food, he appreciated not having to dwell on his concerns. "yeah, I did check it out. and as much of a cliche as it is, I am always down for pizza. what about you?"

" You say that like it's a bad thing, " Andrew teased the younger mal. , " Nothing wrong with trying new things, they can be scary at first, but you've got this man. " he meant that; once they all got use to it, things were going to feel better and less nervous--- the nerves well they were normal in every situations but temporary. " you've seen the fridge yet? it's stocked -- food pretty much solves everything. what's your favorite meal?"

he grinned back at her, plucking a treat out of the bag and tossing it into his mouth. "will do. thanks again," he said. he raised his eyebrows in surprise as she mentioned outer banks. "yeah, that's me. rudy. nice to meet you! I'm glad you're enjoying it. it's been a blast to be a part of," he replied. "I, of course, know who you are. really liked the barbie movie," he added with a chuckle.

"I've picked some popular items that many people enjoy, so feel free to help yourself." She says with a cheerful expression. "Oh, don't fret about it. Just pass on the kindness to someone else in the future. I simply wanted to do something nice." she says warmly. "Your from that show Outer Banks right? I just started watching the show the other day. It's really good so far."
