 Covid does not exist in this story although the year is 2020

*Colby's POV*

"Colby, come on! She's going to be here any minute!" I heard Sam yell from downstairs.

Rolling my eyes, I saved the video I was currently editing and made my way to the foyer where we would be greeting our possible roommate.

Sam had been cleaning the house top to bottom in preparation for the girl that was apparently coming over. You'd think his mother was visiting with how shiny the floors were. I swear I could see my own sweat reflecting off the tile with how reflective they were, and how hot California was today.

Even with having a maid, Sam made sure this place was spic and span. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if we opened the door and the Queen of England was on the other side with how sparkling our home was. 

When we heard the gate buzzer, Sam waited impatiently for her to get to our front door, his foot tapping anxiously, whereas I just wanted to get this over with, and finish editing our next YouTube video. I haven't had a good night's rest in a month, since our last video went up so I was definitely looking forward to getting this video into our finalize folder.

I will admit that Sam has been handling the new roommate stuff while I worked with our editor, which meant I knew absolutely nothing about whomever we were waiting on. I didn't even know her name. I just knew we were expecting some sort of female on the other side of our door in five minutes and that Sam had asked if I was comfortable living with a female roommate.

I watched Sam glance over my outfit as he waited, and I couldn't help but cock an eyebrow at him. "Sam approved?" I asked. I glanced down at my outfit, taking in my black on black look.

I was wearing black skinny jeans and a black t-shirt that had our explore logo on it accompanied by a few of my rings. I figured I shouldn't wear my own face on my shirt when we met this possible roommate of ours, considering how much effort Sam put into being Cinderella today. 

I couldn't help but chuckle to myself at the thought of him running around the house like a chicken with it's head cut off, making sure everything was sparkly and pristine.

He really wanted this to work out.

"I'm honestly just glad you found pants" Sam shook his head at me and I grinned.

"Awe thanks brother! I found them on the floor" I chuckled and Sam rolled his eyes.

"I want this one to work out, Colby. Be on your best behavior" Sam basically threatened me, only confirming my thoughts seconds ago. 

I knew how stressful this was for him, especially since we had a couple people spontaneously move out whilst we were away, which I can assure you was quite the surprise to find a note from your supposed friends on the kitchen counter, after a month of being away from home. 

We were out of the country filming for our next few videos, so you can imagine the surprise when you walk into a quiet house with just a piece of notebook paper laying on the counter.

"We've literally only met with two other people, and the first one was the actual worst. You can't deny that" I scoffed at him quickly, leaning on the wall and pulling out my phone to check my messages.

This one guy we thought would fit perfectly, turned out to be the actual worst. He moved in and was kicked out after 2 weeks.

After that experience, I haven't exactly been on board with this whole stranger living in our home whilst we were away, thing.

"Okay, maybe the second guy had some problems, but that doesn't mean we couldn't live with him" Sam argued and I shook my head but before I could reply, the doorbell rang and Sam looked at me and didn't move, making me stare at him. "What are you waiting for? Answer it" I chuckled.
