(Savannah's outfit⬆️)
Savannah's pov:
It's been two days since I went to Damien's mansion. Tomorrow the kids will be moving to the mansion and the old orphanage would be destroyed for good.
Today, Damien was coming to meet the interior designer for the orphanage, who was no other than my twin cousins Prescott and Garett. I didn't tell Damien who was the designer yet.
I had to move some chairs so that everyone can have a seat. I cleaned my office and took out the plan Mr Watsons handed us. Damien gave me to keep it since he was sure he was going to lose it or misplace it.
I jumped startled when Garett walked in, slamming the door on the wall.
"Miss me Savy?" He smirked walking toward me. Prescott was right behind him with Elijah. He knows I hate that name. I didn't have time to reply as he throws his hand around me, hugging me tightly.
"You will kill her." Prescott chuckled. Garett pulled away but didn't move his hand from my shoulder.
"Can you blame me? It feels like years since I last saw her." He said dramatically and I rolled my eyes.
"You saw me last week." I pointed out and Elijah chuckled.
"I think he was too drunk to remember that," Prescott added.
"I wasn't that drunk." Garett scoffed. Lie, he couldn't even walk straight to the car without falling. Bryan and Prescott had to carry him to the car.
"You kiss a girl thinking that she was some handsome hunk from a movie." Prescott started making Garett frowned. I was sure he doesn't remember that. He almost passed out while kissing that girl.
"It was a girl?" He asked and both Elijah and I laughed.

"See," Prescott said.
"Anyway, I didn't forget our whole night." He smiled looking down at me.
Sure...
I was about to reply when someone clears their throat. We looked at the door and saw Damien with Crawford and Zach.
"Hi," Elijah went to handshake them and Garett finally removed his arm from my shoulder to go handshake them. I pulled my chair to the side of the table so that Elijah could move his chair beside me. The others sat down in front of us.
"Let me introduced everyone, so they are Damien Russo, Zach Turner and Crawford Russo. And guys these two are the interior designer Garett and Prescott."
"So Savy already told us about the whole thing," Garett started and I glared at him.
I don't know why he likes that name so much...
"We bought some sample that you can choose and if you don't like them, you can customise it," Prescott explained, pulling out a big book from his bag. He put it on the table and proceed to take another book out.
"Here are the colours option and this is the drawings," Garett said opening the books.
"Drawings?" Zach asked confused.
"Well since it will be a children room, I thought we can paint some Disney characters on the wall to make it look less dull," I explained and they nodded. Beside Damien, he wasn't even looking at us.
"What colour did you pick?" Crawford asked me and I shrugged.
"I didn't-"
"She can never decide what to pick, so you will have to choose one." Garett chuckled and Elijah agreed with him.
"And don't tell her yet what you pick or she might keep switching the colours," Elijah added and I glared at both of them.

That wasn't true. I might take time to choose one but it's only because I always think about the pros and the cons. I admit I do change the colours after but it's only because I got new ideas about how to decorate the rooms.
"Geez thanks, you two," I stated dryly.
"We are helping you here," Garett shrugged.
"Anyway, you can inform us about the colours later when you decide what you want." Prescott said, "And now the drawings."
Crawford and Zach went through all the pages and choose the characters they wanted. I had to remind them that there were also girls in the orphanage. They were only choosing guys characters.
I glanced at Damien and he was sitting silently in his corner. Crawford and Zach were the only ones talking.
Did I say something wrong? Or does he not like the Garett and Prescott? Maybe he found a better interior designer.
"Savy, what about this one?" Garett asked walking to my side with the book. He was pointing at Peter Pan with Twinklebell.
"They are all so damn hot," he murmured near my ears and I chuckled.
"Yeah, that's good," I replied to his previous question.
"Decided then," Elijah said and they nodded.
Suddenly someone's phone started to ring.
"Excuse me, I have to take this," Damien said, not looking up. He walked out of the office, closing the door after him. This was the only words he said since he got here. What's wrong with him?
"Savannah, can I talk to you in private?" Crawford asked lowly so that the others don't hear and I nodded. I looked at the other guys and they were talking together. Crawford and I walked out of the office and stopped in the hallway. Zach joined us a few seconds later.
"What is it?" I asked.
"How do you know them? Like, do they have a good review or a site?" Crawford asked and I shake my head no.
"They don't have any site yet. They just started this job but I can assure you that they do great jobs and I'm not only saying that because they are my cousins but because I did see their work and they were really good." I explained and they glanced at each other.
"They are your cousins?" Zach asked and I nodded.
"Oh, sorry we thought that maybe you were a thing since Garett was all over you when you came and he knows you well," Crawford admitted and I chuckled.
"Even if Garett wasn't my cousin, he wouldn't be interested in me." I shrugged.
"What do you mean?" Zach asked intrigued.
"Well he doesn't like girls," I said.
"So, he's into..."Zach trailed off.
"Dudes, yeah," I said and he nodded.
"Well, sorry for assuming things," Crawford said and I shake my head no.
"That's alright," I said.
Crawford turned to walk into the office and I followed him, only to be stopped by Zach. I looked at him confused and he pulled me away from my office.
"Well, in that case, I can admit that he's pretty hot," Zach said and my mouth dropped on the floor.
"Wait, you're..." I trailed off and he nodded.
"Let's keep that a secret though, no one knows I'm gay."
