[attr="class","hearmenand22"]Moving day was probably one of least exciting things to participate in but at the same time it left Serena feeling productive and expectant. Next on the docket was Serena's new life here in Hoenn. She was moving from living with her parents to staying with her brother. She'd considered moving into her own place but she figured getting on her brother's last nerves once more would be the more entertaining option.

Besides, it meant more money to save in the long run anyway. She took advantage of this move to kind of 're-brand' and change the style and mood of her living space. So she bought all new furniture to mark this new adventure of hers. No more princess posters and clashing colors. Less pink, and more dark and mature colors. Neon signs and lights to add spice in the room and more of a minimalistic and clean look while looking chic and expensive.

Most of the furniture that she ordered was just delivered to Adrian's address ahead of time but there were some things she needed from her old place. This is where they were now, sorting out the things from her parent's place and adding it to the moving truck. Adrian's friend Senon had agreed to help, either that or Adrian pulled in some favors. Regardless, Serena was appreciative of the additional body. By far the most expensive thing they had to bring in was her streaming set up. From her computer and multiple monitors to cameras, lights, chairs, more lights, and her stereo and mic rig, they had their hands full.

"Why am I here?" Serena heard Senon grunt as he carried her vanity into the truck. She brushed past him as she carried two medium boxes stacked on top of each other into the truck. "Because," she said with a huff as she placed the boxes on the ground. Turning to face him with a tired but bright smile, "You're a sweet guy who helps his friend's sister move in. And who also is looking forward to dinner reservations that said sister has made for later." Taking off her blue jacket and tying it around her waist, Serena took a slight break from the heavy lifting to drink some water. "God it's hot," she said as she fanned herself before pulling her blonde locks back into a messy bun.

With her jacket off the tattoo sleeves were more visible. Her parents hadn't exactly approved of her inking up her body but she, quite frankly, didn't give a damn. She was allowed to express herself how she chose, especially when she did everything they asked of her and more usually. Still, back home she usually kept her tattoo's covered, just out of consideration for her parents, and not to hear them nag. She hadn't realized how much she appreciated getting to wear whatever the fuck she wanted now that she was free.

With a smirk she gently tapped Senon on the shoulder as she passed him once more. "C'mon, we're almost done." she said with a bright smile as she made her way back to the boat to grab some more of things.

[attr="class","hearmenand22"] One good thing about working on this hot day was the cute little Rockruff that Senon brought along. It danced around happily between her feet but Serena was always nervous since she didn't want to trip up and hurt it. So far, it seemed to be doing a good job of avoiding danger as it clung close to her, despite Senon's wishes. As she passed by her brother to grab a couple more boxes she heard his exchange with his friend. "If I can make it up to ya sometime, lemme know," he said as Sera lightly grunted as she bent down to pick up two boxes outside of the truck.

"Money's not an issue, either." Adrian continued, to which Sera nodded. Not that Adi would, but their family was pretty well off so he could always use that if he wanted. But since she knew her brother and how stubborn he was, he probably would rather use his hard earned money, which was fine considering he was living pretty well off his own coin. "Whew! What's left?" Adrian asked with a sigh. Serena stacked the boxes she was carrying in the truck before she turned around.

"Need your glasses?" Sera quipped as she sighed and looked out and pointed, "That bin of electronics and the two boxes beside it, and...." she trailed off as she looked around, "And those two sofa chairs" she pointed at the ones wrapped in plastic. "You and your friend can handle that right? I've got the bin and the last two boxes." She said as she practically hopped off the back of the truck. Seeing the last few items gave her a little more pep in her step.

"Who told you I was a sweet guy?" Senon said with a groan. Serena's dark orbs widened as an amused smirk formed on her lips. "You spreading rumors, Mal?" he said as he sent an accusatory glance to her brother. With a light shrug of her shoulders, Sera placed her hands on her hip. "Oh well, I assumed..." she trailed off dramatically, "Forgive me then." she said with a chuckle before stopping herself. She bit her lip as her brows knit together, "But....if you're not a nice guy then...hmmm" she mused, "Do bad guys deserve free dinner?" she clearly teased him with a playful sparkle in her eye.

Once everything was loaded onto the truck Serena made a last check on everything, not wanting to leave anything behind. Once she was satisfied with everything she stretched. God it was hot and her muscles were starting to ache from all the bending and the lifting. The only thing she wanted to do in that moment was to cool off by dunking the rest of her water bottle over herself. She refrained from that, however. She could practically hear her mother's chastisement if she was to do so. She'd spare the guys this time.

"Right so how about we go somewhere nice so we can cool down?" She offered to the boys as she attempted to fan herself by pinching the fabric of her top, pulling it back and forth to generate some air. Senon's Rockruff barked happily at her feet as if it was agreeing to her proposal. Her flushed cheeks beamed as she reached down and scooped the pup up in her arms. Cuddling him close to her chest, the pup licked at her cheek excitedly. Giggling she made her way towards the boys. "Is it like this with everyone?" she asked Senon with bright eyes.

[attr="class","hearmenand22"]"I think he's got a thing for you." was Senon's reply that made Serena's grin stretch even wider. "Well the feeling's mutual." she replied as she scratched the Rockruff behind the ears. "Somewhere nice? Like for drinks, or...?" Adrian asked, alluding to her earlier proposal. Sera nodded, "Yeah. Anything to get us out from under this sun." She said as she turned to look at her brother. "Besides, we could chill there till it's time for our dinner reservations." she continued.

"Oh, and -bad guys deserve whatever you let them get away with." Senon chipped in, finally responding to her earlier teasing. He gripped the last box of her tightly as he made his final trip into the truck to place the last item. "Consider me in the giving mood then." she quipped back as she stretched. "And that's all of it, thanks guys. I appreciate it." She thanked the boys before placing a hand on her hip. "Now, how about those drinks?" she said with a smile. "Though, maybe we could freshen up a bit before we go." Serena added.

Should the boys be ready Serena would offer them to all take a trip to the cove lily motel where she was staying for a little while. They would be able to freshen up before Serena would lead them to this popular little drink spot in the shopping area around the city.

[attr="class","hearmenand22"]They all made it towards her motel and once the door was open her brother was the first one through. He quickly slipped out of his shirt which caused Serena to roll her eyes. "Dibs on the shower," he said as he grabbed some things before he disappeared into the bathroom. Serena was left blinking after him before shaking her head and sitting on the corner of her bed. "Sure, sure. Not like this is my room or anything. But you can have the shower first." she grumbled

Whatever, it wasn't that big of a deal. Since Adrian had been with her from the start she figured grab some of his things and toss it on the bed for him when he was finished, like a clean shirt. "So what was that talk about you making me dinner?" Senon spoke up and Serena turned towards him with wide eyes.

A chuckle escaped her lips as she shook her head. "Oh no," she clarified. "I'm not cooking you anything. But we'll all be going to get a bite to eat after this. Nice try though." she said as she flashed him a bright smile. She reached for the remote near her bed and turned on the tv, flicking through a few stations at first. "So, how'd you meet my brother?" she asked, trying to spark some conversation.

[attr="class","hearmenand22"]While sitting on the bed Serena's shorts managed to ride up a bit to the point she noticed she'd gotten a little farmer's tan from working out in the sun for so long. "You know how it is, you're at a Ren Faire, you see a cute guy, the drinks are flowing, the rest is history." Senon replied with a cheeky smirk on his face. It managed to coax out one of equal value from Serena as she shook her head. "Dunno if cute and my brother belong in the same sentence." she quipped lightly.

Senon's playful wink wasn't missed by her, it was clear he was in a better mood now that they were finished with work and had the promise of food on the horizon. The sound of the water cutting off interrupted Serena's thoughts before they shifted. Perhaps she should prepare her own things so that she could take a quick too. Still, somehow she felt like it wouldn't be the best thing to go rummaging through her clothes with Senon's attention focused on her.

"You two getting along okay out there?" Adrian called out from the bathroom which resulted in another eye roll from his younger sister. She was about to reply with something sarcastic but Senon handing his phone over to her distracted her instead. It was already pulled up on the contacts page so his intention was clear. Serena couldn't help but chuckle at his boldness, why shouldn't she indulge him?

"I'm getting her phone number Mal! Do you rhetorically mind?!" Shaking her head once more she quickly tapped her phone number into his phone and snapped a selfie for the contact photo. She handed his phone back to him moments later with an amused smile resting on her lips. If he took the time to take notice he'd see underneath her name was a note that said 'Senon's Sugar Daddy'.

"Quit worrying about us and hurry out of the bathroom." Serena said as she turned her attention towards her brother who had been in the shower long enough at this point. She was ready for her turn so that they could finally get some food.
