Mariah May

"Mariah, I've told you, darling. You are going to love, my husbands' sister." Toni drapes her arms over Mariah's shoulders dramatically while Mariah is finishing up her makeup. "YN is a wonderful girl. Oh, and so pretty as well." She hypes you up for Mariah.

"Gosh, I hope she likes me." Mariah replies nervously. "How do I look, Toni? Ugh, my eyeshadow isn't blended enough, is it?" She frowns in her vanity mirror.

Toni shakes her head and plucks the eyeshadow pallet out of Mariah's hand. "You look stunning, darling. Now come on, guests will be arriving soon." She encourages Mariah to finish up with her makeup.

Reluctantly, Mariah nods and sets her makeup with some setting spray to finish the look. Toni hands her a cute pair of heels to go with her dress and the pair descend the stairs where Juice is getting things ready for the party with Jay and the Gunn brothers.

"There you ladies are! I was starting to think you two were up to something up there without me." Juice jokes when Mariah and Toni join him in the kitchen. "Toni! Babe! You look great! You too, Mariah." He compliments the pair.

"Thank you, Juice." Mariah nods and suddenly finds herself with a Gunn brother either side of her.

Austin flashes Mariah a flirty grin and leans in next to her. "Juice is right, you look fantastic, Mariah." He compliments her.

"Yeah, you look great, Mariah." Colten agrees from her other side. "So, what's the plans for tonight? You got a date?" He asks.

Mariah clears her throat, an uncomfortable look on her face. Toni see's the distressed look on her face just as the doorbell chimes at the front of the house.

"Mariah, my dear. Could you check the door for me, please? It's probably, YN." Toni asks Mariah, giving her a polite way to get rid of Austin and Colten.

"Sure." Mariah nods and steps away from the Gunn brothers.

Mariah makes her way through the house, nervously fidgeting with her hands. She makes it to the front door and cautiously opens the door. The door swings open and Mariah finds you standing on the porch with a couple of bags slung over your shoulder and a smile on your face.

"Hi!" You beam when Mariah answers the door. "It's, Mariah, right? Toni's friend? I'm, YN, Juice's sister." You introduce yourself with a friendly smile.

"Hi." Mariah stares at you awkwardly for a second before stepping out of the doorway.

Mariah steps out of the doorway and you head inside the house. Mariah shuts the door and the two of you head back toward the kitchen.

"It's nice to finally get to meet you, Mariah." You glance at her as the two of you walk. "Toni has been telling me about you for a while now. I love your dress, by the way. It's so pretty on you." You compliment her with a flirty smile.

"Thank you!" Mariah blushes slightly and the two of you step into the kitchen.

You get to the kitchen and walk over to your brother. You hand him the bags on your shoulder and chat with him for a minute. Mariah walks over to Toni, who's wearing an eager smile.

"Well?" Toni whispers with Mariah. "What do you think so far?" She asks her.

"She's-gosh, she's so pretty." Mariah gushes in a hushed tone.

Toni laughs and glances over at you and Juice, chatting while mixing drinks for the party. She explains a couple more simple facts about you to give Mariah more of an edge later.

A little later into the night, the party has started and Toni has disappeared somewhere, leaving Mariah alone. And it isn't long before she finds herself in the presence of the Gunn brothers again.

"Mariah! There you are!" Austin saunters over to Mariah with a grin. "We've been looking everywhere for you." He explains.

Mariah clutches onto her drink and swallows. She offers Austin a small smile and weighs her options for escaping this unwanted conversation she's stuck in.

Across the room, you are talking with Juice about work when you spot Mariah being cornered by the Gunn brothers on the other side of the room.

"Oh, would you look at that?" You muse to yourself and take a sip from your drink.

"Look at what?" Juice turns around with furrowed brows.

You set your drink down and pat your brother on the shoulder. "A damsel in distress." You nod over to Mariah. "My specialty." You joke.

Juice laughs and watches you stride across the room to Mariah's rescue. You head over to the trio and squeeze past Austin in order to get to Mariah.

"Mariah, hey!" You flash a smile at her. "There you are! Sorry I had to bail out for a minute. You ready to grab another drink with me?" You ask her, pretending like the two of you already have plans in motion.

"Y-yeah." Mariah nods, picking up on what you're hinting out. "Sorry, guys." She offers a sympathetic smile at Austin and Colten.

You knock into Austin subtly and push him out of the way so Mariah has room to move. She steps away from the brothers and you step behind to make sure that they don't follow. The two of you walk into another room and find a quiet corner to talk.

"Thanks for the rescue, YN." Mariah thanks you, a light dusting of blush on her cheeks.

"No problem." You shrug with a grin. "I'm gonna go ahead and guess that neither of those two knuckleheads are your type?" You ask her.

Mariah shakes her head. "No, not really." She confirms. "I'm more into...well..." She stumbles over her words nervously.

"Feminine types?" You joke lightheartedly.

"Y-yeah." Mariah nods and smiles at you.

You match her smile and turn around to pluck two drinks off of the counter behind you. "Something we have in common." You hand her a drink and clink your glasses together. "Toni kind of told me that you were single, and my type." You inform her. "She did forget to mention how pretty you are though." You wink.

"Thanks." Mariah giggles and takes a sip from her drink. "So, you party much?" She asks you.

"Eh, on occasion." You shrug. "I'm more of a one-on-one girl when it comes to socializing though." You admit.

Mariah nods in agreement and takes another sip of her drink. "Yeah, me too."

"Yeah?" You reply with a curious smile. "Hey, do you wanna maybe get out of here and grab a bite to eat?" You suggest. "We've mingled long enough that I don't think Toni and Juice will mind. Plus, it means we get away from Juice's persistant friends." You nod across the room where Austin and Colten look like they might take another pass at you and Mariah.

"Sure! I could eat." Mariah eagerly nods.

You grin and down the rest of your drink before grabbing Mariah's hand and pulling her gently through the crowd.

"Toni! Mariah and I are headed out!" You shout to Toni as you pass her in the main room.

"Okay! Have fun, darlings!" Toni shouts back as she watches you and Mariah slip out the front door with eager smiles on your faces. "See, I told you they'd get along well." She nudges Juice standing next to her.
