Round 2 Crew Vibes

Chapter 15: Lydia!

(Wednesday 11th March 2015)

I awoke to the sound of Dylan and Kevin having a rap battle next door and I slowly slid myself out from Pape's grasp and rolled out of bed. He rolled to his side and went back to sleep.
I quickly checked my phone and tweeted "jet laggin' in Ohio still.." and also followed back around 20 others who had followed me.

I then went to Chase's room and Chase was still sleeping.
"Good morning Lexy" Kevin smiled up as I walked over to the bed and laid down next to Chase.
"Zo is in the shower." Dyl added walking to the mirror and playing with his hair.

Kevin told us that Lydia was going to come over in the afternoon and take Zoe and I out to eat.
"I can't wait to meet her" I smiled then walked back to the guestroom to go and take a shower too. It was just such a relaxing day and I felt to just sit around all morning until later. Kevin was excited that we would finally meet Lydia. That would then mean that Chase would definitely be left out because Chloe wasn't there. Ahhhh.

After showering, I creamed my face and legs, slipped on some denim shorts and a red Ralph Lauren polo tee. While brushing my hair in the mirror Pape woke up.
"Hey you" I said walking over to the bed and jumping on Pape to give him a hug. He wrapped his arms around me and smelled my hair.

"Mmm, good morning Lex" He said before reachin up to my cheeks and giving me a kiss.
"The guys are up except Chase." I said rolling on my side next to Pape. 

I told Pape of Zoe and I's plan to meet Lydia later and he said that the boys were going to work in the studio all day today. I hugged him tightly and kissed his cheek. He smiled at me and got up to go to Chase's room. Zoe came into my room shortly after and sat on the bed drying her hair with a towel.

"Where is Lydia taking us later?" I asked while walking into the bathroom to brush my teeth.
"I think were just going out to eat then maybe some shopping?" Zoe replied.
Oooooh shopping! I was really excited because I had saved up so much just for shopping alone. I wanted to buy so much since everything here was like 5 times cheaper than in London.

"Ahhh, I want to buy some air max's and a new pennyboard." I said walking back into the bedroom and picking up my phone.
"I need some new timbs" Zoe said.

Zoe and I went down to the kitchen and found some pancake mix in one of the cupboards. We decided to try and experiment as the boys had went shopping the day before and bought fruit also. We mixed in blueberries and bananas into the pancake mix and made some really yummy butterscotch pancakes. The boys were already down in the studio so we brought them some pancakes and orange juice.

"Awww aren't you girls sweet" Chase said walking into the studio after taking a shower.
"Good morning sleepyhead" I said handing him a glass of orange juice.
"Lydia will be here at around 2pm" Kevin told us.

Zoe and I chilled in Chase's bedroom for an hour while the boys recorded some vocals downstairs. We also skyped Chloe.
"How's chase doing?" Chloe asked.
"Still missing you" I said getting my phone and replying to more tweets.
"What is up with you two" Zoe said while laying down on Chase's bed.
"It's complicated." Chloe said smiling.
"Do you like him?" I asked. I really wasn't sure what Chloe was feeling.
"I do" Chloe replied.
"Then what's up? Chase really misses you" Zoe added.

Chloe went on to vent on about how Chase was and she felt like she would be getting in the way of his career and things, especially if she lived across the globe. I felt the same way too but Pape had made it clear that he was totally fine with it because we were taking it slow.

"Maybe Chase doesn't know how to tell you that he's fine with all of it because he isn't sure himself." Zoe added. We carried on talking to Chloe for another hour then we went down to listen to the oys recording. Pape was so cute. I walked into the studio where Chase was sitting and just listened. The guys were really very talented at what they did and I was so proud of them. They really were self made as Chase was the main producer and they were not even signed yet.

Lydia arrived at 2 and we drove in Chase's car. Lydia drove us since we were not used to driving the other way around.
"I'm so glad to finally meet you girls, Kevin has told me so much about you." Lydia said while driving.
"Same here, how are you two anyway?" I said. I just started the conversation so deep already and we all just talked as if we had known each other for so long.
"Well Kevin and I decided to take things even slower, its really complicated." Lydia continued telling us about their past and how they got to know each other. They met in high school and had been really close ever since.

Lydia parked in front of the outlet mall and we walked around and shopped for a couple of hours.
Zoe managed to buy some new timbs and I was able to find some Air max 1's that I had wanted for so long. We then sat in the food court for a while and munched on Tacos.

"How're you girls liking American then?" Lydia smiled while taking a sip of her slushie.
"It's great so far, really relaxed and chilled unlike busy London" I replied.
We took a few selfies and I tweeted while tagging Kevin "@K_Flyknows Out with Lydia and Zoe."
Kevin later texted me how we were and I replied that we were having a nice girly time haha.

Pape Whastapp'd me: I miss you London girl and I replied back
Me: I miss you more boo.
We chilled for a while before heading out to shop some more. I bought a Pennyboard, two hoodies from American Apparel and some jeans from True Religion. We then bought some Dunkin' doughnuts for the boys to bring back home.

Before heading home, Lydia took us to Chipotle and I was so excited. I had been waiting to come here and finally eattt my bum off. We ordered three large burritos and we also ordered some for the boys.
"Dyl messaged me to get him a slushie" Zoe said.
 
After another hour we headed back to Chase's and chilled in the living room while the boys took a break and came to eat their lunch. I checked my phone and replied to some tweets from fans commenting on our picture with Zoe.

Some were saying "Awww, is that Kevin's girlfriend?" I replied saying no it was Kevins best friend.
We all just sat in the living room for a while and chilled. Dylan as always was making jokes.
Kevin said that Lydia should take Zoe and I to go watch a movie while the boys finished up then they would meet us and we could go to have dinner somewhere nice. We agreed and I went upstairs to change into jeans because it was getting cold out.

"What should we watch?" Lydia said turning on the engine again and driving out of Chase's front yard.
"What's on?" Zoe said.
"I think that new Channing movie is on" I said smirking.
"Ahhhh Channing, defo" Lydia laughed and we drove away singing along to Miley Cyrus - We can't stop.

We got to the movie and bought our tickets. We then bought some popcorn and ice-cream and walked into the movie. Channing was so gorgeous. Pape messaged me asking what we were watching and I replied: Channing. 
He replied: "Ahhhh, I'll leave you then babe. Message us when it's over so we can decide where to meet." Pape knew all my celebrity crushes. Josh Hutcherson, James Franco, Aaron Johnson. <3
I also knew his: Mila Kunis, Keira Knightly, Jenifer Laurence.

The movie was just under 2 hours and we walked out while Lydia was on the phone to Kevin organising where they would meet us. They would have to go to Kevin's to take his car since we had Chase's.
