wet  feet  leave  a  trail  through  the  house  as  he  makes  his  way  out  of  the  kitchen  and  back  towards  the  pool.  freshly  opened  bottle  of  beer  in  his  hand,  he  goes  to  take  a  gulp,  stopping  in  his  tracks  when  he  sees  a  new  face.  while  he’s  not  used  to  this  many  cameras  in  his  face,  he’s  no  stranger  to  being  followed  around  by  one.  in  his  line  of  work,  it’s  simply  part  of  it.  a  soft  chuckle  before  he  gives  the  camera  men  a  small  nod  —  while  many  of  them  choose  not  to  interact  with  the  contestants,  harris  has  found  a  few  do.      ‘  eh,  they’re  not  so  bad.  guess  you  just  gotta  look  at  them  as  part  of  this  whole  experience.  i’m  sure  within  the  week  you’ll  forget  all  about  them.  ’      bottle  settled  by  poolside,  he  wastes  no  time  in  jumping  back  in,  breath  held  under  water  before  he  appears  above  the  surface  once  again.  he  swims  towards  her,  lopsided  grin  taking  shape.      ‘  i’m  harris,  by  the  way.  nice  to  meet  ya.  ’

cassidy turned her head, glancing over her shoulder at the source of the voice before looking back at the pool “ i mean, thats the plan right? “ she smiled “ wouldn’t be much fun if we didn’t “ she pointed out, not a flinch as he dove into the water, leaning back on her palms. in all honesty, cassidy wasn’t afraid of the cameras - she didn’t have anything to hide. She looked down at him as he swam closer to her “ harris “ she repeated “ cassidy “ she offered a smile, reaching over she helped herself to a swig of his beer before holding the bottle out to him “ when did you show up? “ she asked curiously, fingers brushing her hair from her face.

cassidy had never set foot in a house this big, let alone a mansion and you bet she was going to make the most of it. she’d already dumped her things in her room - yet to introduce herself to her roommate, making a bee line for the pool. cassidy kicked off her shoes, taking a seat pool side, feet dancing just under the surface of the water - cassidys eyes caught sight of the camera people she’d forgotten about that part of the deal. not bothering to turn as she heard approaching footsteps - she instead decided to speak out “ is anyone actually used to these guys following us all around just yet? “

‘ i think my bags are still at the door. the second i came here i just dropped them to explore the whole house, ’ ainsley confessed to the first person she found. ‘ i’ll leave the unpacking for later, but first i’m definitely in the mood to do something fun, ’ the blonde winked, ‘ any ideas ? ’

“ honestly i couldn’t care less about what i packed anymore" cassidy admitted, she was just relieved to be here. meant she didn’t have to think about work or rent or anything for the time being. “you and i both - anything you had in mind?”

✧ * ☾ — [ shelley hennig / heterosexual / she/her ] - damn, i heard { cassidy king } just got cast on MTV! rumor has it they are a { twenty two } year old { bartender } from { brooklyn, new york }. the thing they are going to miss the most from home is { her apartment }. on the show they are most likely going to be known as the { philophobic }. 

cassidy grew up, originally from san francisco,  with two parents she absolutely adored. her mother and father were fun loving and free spirited, they believed that love conquered all and good always won and for a long time cassidy believed the same. 

when she was 15 years old, on their way back from dinner - her parents in the front seat, cassidy in the backseat, their car was struck by an oncoming car and Cassidy’s parents? were killed instantly. 

pushed into the foster system Cassidy’s outlook on life definitely changed. everything she had believed in proven wrong to her from the moment she lost her parents. she became a lot more pessimistic, a lot colder. after less than six months? she fled her foster home and took her life into her own hands. 

Cassidy is a bit of a wanderer, she never stays in one place too long - not long enough to let people get too close. her longest lasting home before heading to cabo? Brooklyn, New York. Which she adores. 

Cassidy can be a little standoffish, a little too blunt - she deliberately keeps people at an arms length. that being said she’s a bit of a flirt, live fast die young sort of person. she can be charismatic when she wants to be, she just prefers to keep a wall up where she can. 

she is a good person - she’s just a bit of a scared bean.
