London Life

Chapter 3: Tea Time

                       *GWYNN'S POV*
I pull out my phone and tell the address that Joe gave me.
"Okay." He says driving me there.
I throw on my headphones on and listen to I'm In Control. It takes about 10 minutes and we arrive. "Thank you." I say after paying him.
I walk up to the door and knock.

Joe opens it smiling. "Hello." He says smiling.

"Hi." I smile back.

"Come in!" He gestures inside.

"Thanks." I say walking in.

"Nice place." I say looking around at the clean house.

"Thanks," He laughs. "I actually share it with a roommate."

"Caspar!" He yells out.

A tall blonde walks in from the other room, "What!" He yells.

He give him a strange look.

"Oh we have company!" He says looking at me like he's never seen a human.

"She just moved here actually." Joe explains.

"Yeah, from California." I nod.

"Nice." Caspar smiles.

"Well, bye Caspar." Joe pushes him.

"I'm staying." He winks to Joe.

I look down at my phone. It's awkward to just stand there while they're arguing.

Joe groans, "Fine."

"So want to watch a movie?" Joe asks.

"You promised tea." I laugh.

"That's right!" He goes into the kitchen.

"So, Gwynn, tell me about yourself." He looks at me.

"What do you want to know?" I ask.

"Things you like, dislike..." He says grabbing tea cups.

"I love the color black, I love beauty, I love musical.ly..." I feel embarrassed when I say the last one.

"Musical.ly?" He asks.

"Yeah. You basically just-" I start to talk.

"No, no. I know what it is." He laughs.

"Oh.." I awkwardly fake laugh.

"Do you have YouTube?" He asks.

"No." I say.

"Oh.." He mimics me from earlier.

"He has 6 million fans on YouTube!" Caspar yells, reminding me he's there.

"6 million?" I gasp.

Joe looks embarrassed.

"So, are you going to any University's?" Joe asks, changing the subject.

"Yeah, I'm going to Manchester University." I tell him.

"Morgiana goes there!" Caspar yells.

"That's right!" Joe smiles, handing me my tea.

I thank Joe for the tea and then go on and ask, "Who's that?"

"She's one of our good friends!" Joe sips his tea.

"Oh, what's she like?" I ask.

"She's awfully shy when you first meet her, so she probably wouldn't start the conversation first but once you get to know her oh boy..." He raises his eyebrows.

"What does she look like? So I have someone to talk to if I see her." I explain.

"Brown hair, green eyes, her style is very Tumblr, if you know what I mean."

"Oh okay." I nod at his bland description.

"When do you start there?" Caspar asks.
"2 weeks."

"Nice." They both smile.

"Shit!" Joe yells.

"What?" I ask.

"I forgot to film my YouTube video for tomorrow!" He looks overwhelmed.

"I have to film it now, would you like to be in it? It's just a Q&A." He offers.

"Sure!" I nod.

The rest of the night is filming and it's very fun. After filming we just sit and chill for a little. While we're sitting on the couch I look at my phone and see the time. I then realize I'd been here for 2 hours.

"Crap! My mom!" I think to myself.

"I should probably get going." I tell them, standing up.

"Aw, okay." Joe says, standing. 

He leads me to the door and we hug goodbye.

"Bye!" Caspar yells from the living room.

"Bye Caspar." I yell back, walking out.

"I guess I'll see you later?" Joe looks at me.

"Yeah." I say.

"I'll call you once you get home." Joe smiles.

"Alright." I let out a little laugh.

"Well, bye." He slowly closes the door.

"Bye." I giggle.

He closes the door shut and I pull out my phone right then.

I call up my cab and he says he will be there in 10 minutes.

I sit down on his porch for a little and think of how I should've just called in the house.

I pull out my phone and scroll on Instagram and open and reply to snapchats.

After what feels like 30 minutes the car finally pulls up and I get in.
