"this is a multi-million dollar contract," mareshah reminded him with a slightly nervous edge. he pulled out her chair and she sat next to him, her hand finding his on his knee and lacing their fingers out of everyone else's view. it wasn't that she was ashamed of him; she just didn't know exactly what they were yet and didn't want to answer any questions from people working the competition or her fellow competitors. “i really dunno where you get all that confidence from pooh bear,” she chuckled under her breath as the final two competitors showed up with their dates. “ay y’all,” mareshah grinned, then gestured to preston. “this is preston. preston, this is nadia and kendrick,” she introduced, gesturing to the two contestants she was naming.
