Coast to Coast: a House Fan Fic

Chapter Three

            "I am so sorry again! We're moving in across the hall, and I don't know who thought it would be a good idea to give me a license for one of these things," I say before turning back to the girls.

Kian gives a little nod and a smirk, "Wassup! I'm Kian. You didn't bother me. It just sounded like someone was dying out here, so I had to make sure everybody was okay."

"Thanks for checking in," I say with a smile, "but the only thing dying, at this point, is my dignity."

"Which was already mostly dead," Ev says putting a box on the cart and elbowing me a bit, "This was just the final nail in the coffin. I'm Everleigh, that's Harper," she says jerking her thumb in Harper's direction, "and this graceful human here is Gracelynn."

"Nice to meet y'all," Kian says, "So where y'all coming from, or are you LA natives?"

"God no," I say with a small snort, "Ev and I are from the East Coast. I'm form Erie, Pennsylvania and she's from Buffalo, New York, and Harper is from San Juan, Texas."

"Oh, very cool! So, what brought you guys to LA," he asks.

"Well, I'm a photographer, so beautiful people and beautiful scenery," Harper says, "and Everleigh, here, is a film maker, so there's the obvious in that one."

"Yeah, and I'm a special education teacher who works with kids with Autism, so who really knows why I'm here, honestly," I jump in.

"You're here because you're our best friend, and you bring balance anywhere you go," Everleigh says.

"Balance, I like that" Kian says with a nod, "Well, welcome to LA and the building! I'm glad no one was dead, and it was nice to meet you girls. Hey, listen, I have to finish up something, but I can stop by later with a couple of friends if you need some help with the heavy stuff."

"That would be amazing," Harper exclaims.

"You know where we live," Ev says with a flick of her eyebrow followed by a small smirk.

"Dude, all of Los Angeles knows where we live after that whole debacle," I say smacking Everleigh's arm, "But yes, some help would never be turned down." I turn to Kian with a smile.

We drag our carts into the apartment, and slightly fangirl over the fact that we just bumped into Kian Freaking Lawley and that he's coming to help us unpack. We pull ourselves together and unload all our boxes into our rooms but wait to unpack them, since Kian and his friends will be helping us with the IKEA furniture, which we drag to their appropriate locations and begin trying to assemble.
