Lucas nodded as Holden walked off, clearly absorbed in his own thoughts. No point to this he supposed. It was a job for Jason, the only connection most of them had in this place. As if on cue, their host himself came through the door followed a new arrival. He listened to Jason make the usual remarks about the place, introductions around, waved as his name was called. 

His thoughts turned to the girl upstairs when Jason called up to her. They hadn't really crossed paths since arriving, but from he'd seen of her she wasn't bad on the eyes. Nice long hair, good body. She just seemed really distant. She'd look good if she just smiled. Then again, he remembered his own sister who herself just was reserved with most people but a great person. Time would tell. He was sure she'd make a good friend. After all, he was starting at zero in a new city.

"Well maybe zero isn't quite the appropriate term," he thought looking at the apartment that was far above any luxury he could have imagined living in when he was growing up. Jason joked about his time at the pool as he walked past him. "Hey man, I was at the pool to chill for a bit, the ladies came to see me." The last of the group arrived a few moments later. Another of Jason's college buddies. Their trio was complete. And two more young women, a lot friendlier than Anna he couldn't help but notice. 

Jason then gathered them around and introduced them one by one. It was good to see everyone in one place. He was used to a lot of people in one living arrangement, though not usually in as big a place as this. It'd be fun. A nice return to his noisy childhood. His ears picked up at the sounnd of the words "bonfire" and "beach." "Can't wait to go!" he said in reply. As everyone started to mingle he noticed the guy who'd come in with Jason, Roberto, hanging out by the window by himself. Picking up his lemonade once more he made his way over. "What's up, Roberto. I'm Lucas, in case you missed it. How's the view?" he asked, just opening it up for conversation.
