"We have to work with them? Oh god, I have to work with them." I told her, pulling back from the hug as soon as the door closed.

"It'll be fine. Haven't you changed?" He asked, and I cursed myself. I should have died my hair and lived off fast food. My body would have changed, and so would my hair colour. It would have been perfect.

"Barely!" I was mentally freaking out. They're so going to recognise me. It's unavoidable.

"We're going to have to go in Lydia, I'm sorry... We have to work with them for a few months." She stated awkwardly.

I groaned out loud at that. A few months is going to feel like a few years.

I just have to get it over with, I guess. I took the few minor steps towards the door and twisted the handle.

Just think of it like ripping off a plaster Lydia. The faster they find out who you are the easier it will be.

Yeah, I wish.

I pushed the door open and I was greeted with the 4 faces. I didn't look at their reactions as I walked over to my desk.

"Right let's get this over with. I'll be working with you, what do you need me to do?" I looked up, almost straight at Tony, as an automatic reaction, to see him give a friendly smile.

"Hi, I'm Tony Perry. I don't think we've worked with you before...?"

Complete and utter silence.

Hell, I could hear someone talking on the phone downstairs. I watched him, my mouth slightly open, as he awkwardly scratched the back of his neck and looked around the rest of the band realising they'd gone silent.

They obviously recognise me.

I was engaged to the man standing in front of me for a year, with him for almost a year and a half, and he doesn't have one single fucking idea who I am.

"Nice to meet you Tony. I'm Alexis Evans." Lexis started talking when she realised I was in too much shock.

It's for completely good reason though.

I carried staring at Tony, who smiled at her, and then looked to the rest of his band again. I followed his gaze to Jaime, which was focused on me, in shock.

Then Vic, who was copying Jaime's look of pure shock.

Finally Mike, who was the only one who was looking back at Tony, he was glaring at him.

I've had some mistaken identity moments in my life, but this is a whole new level for me.

Has he been brain damaged or something? I cursed myself for my thoughts. That was a little harsh.

Either way, I have a panic attack when I see him and he doesn't even bat an eyelid as to who I am. Holy shit I forgot how much of an asshole Tony Perry is.

My shocked, and embarrassingly upset face dropped as I formed an angry scowl. I could stab him. I could full on kill him and I have a gut feeling that Brian would cover it up with me just to keep me with the business.

I found my fist clenching by my side, and I squeezed my nails against the skin of the palm of my hand to stop me doing anything stupid.

I've said that I've had some mistaken identity moments. I've been known as many different names throughout my life.

Lydia Grace, my real name.

Lydia Starr, my fame name.

and Ellie, and I don't even know what to label that one.

So in a bittersweet moment, I thought, why not add one more to the list?

And there it is, one of the most stupid things I'll probably ever do was just planned in my head.

I sent a sickly smile to Tony, holding out my hand towards him.

"Nice to meet Mr Perry. You can call me Levi. Levi Jones."
