Ring ring ring
Jaden: (groans but turns over to grab his phone) hello
Mads: Jaden have you checked TikTok room!?
Jaden: what no I was sleeping why?
Mads: it's about Lexie I don't want to say it though you need to see it yourself and get the rest of the boys
Jaden: why what's up?
Mads: just go look and call me later
Jaden: okay I'll wake up the boys and check
Mads: okay and before you get mad at her ask her for the full story you'll know what I am talking about when you see it bye
Jaden: bye
End of phone convo
Jaden's pov
I decided to wake up josh first since we shared a room still even in the new house but I thought it would be funny to hit him with the pillow so that's what I did.
End of pov
Josh: (groans) what?
Jaden: Mads called me and said we needed to get the boys and check tiktok room it's about Lexie
Josh: ugh what now (opens his eyes)
Jaden: I don't know but let's get them up
Josh: okay I'll wake up Bryce, Quinton and Noah while you wake up griffin, Blake, and Kio, are we waking up Lexie too?
Jaden: not yet I want to see what's on it first and then we'll wake her up
Josh: okay
Fifteen minutes later (the boys are sitting on the couches)
Bryce: this better be important because I was having a very good dream before being rudely woken up
Blake: was it about Addison
Bryce: shut up
Griffin: guys seriously what's going on?
Jaden: Mads wanted us to wake up and check tik tok room apparently Lexie is on it
Noah: what did she do now?
Jaden: I don't know but let's see
(The boys all take out their phones and check tik tok room)
Tik tok room post
This just in we got a dm from anonymous sources that went to Lexie hossler's old school apparently before she got expelled she was in some relationship with a guy named Jake and a sex tape got leaked at the school and here is just some of the proof, (posts a video of Lexie making out with a boy in a bedroom topless) I guess we should stick with the name rebel hossler then
End of tik tok room post
Josh: what the actual fuck
Quinton: do you really think it's her?
Griffin: it does look like her
Jaden: I am gonna contact Instagram and make sure they take down this post she's a minor and she didn't consent to this video being up
Noah: do you want me to go wake her up?
Jaden: yeah sure
Noah: okay
(Walks upstairs to Lexie's room and opens it and lightly shakes her)
Lexie: can I just sleep in for once (whines)
Noah: no get up the boys and I want to talk to you
Lexie: about what?
Noah: you'll find out but I need you to wake up first
Lexie: carry me then
Noah: you are such a child (bends over and picks her up and carries her downstairs and sits her down on the couch)
Lexie's pov
I looked around at all the boys sitting around the couch just staring at me so I knew something happened, I just don't know what considering I haven't done anything in the last forty eight hours which is probably a record to be honest.
End of pov
Lexie: so is anyone going to tell me why I got taken out of my comfy bed
Griffin: Lexie we are going to ask you something and I need you to be honest with us okay?
Lexie: okay...
Kio: did you have a boyfriend named Jake back home?
Lexie: w w where did you h hear that name?
Blake: a uh sex tape got leaked on tik tok room claiming it was you in the video
Lexie: please tell me your joking
Noah: so it is true then? God Lexie how long ago was this your fifteen
Lexie: (mumbles) I was fourteen
(Jaden walks back into the room)
Jaden: what did you say?
Lexie: I was fourteen okay and you guys don't know the full story so you can't judge me
Bryce: we aren't gonna judge you god knows we've all done stupid shit including me but this is a little much don't you think?
Lexie: like I said you don't know everything that happened
Quinton: then tell us
Lexie: no
Jaden: then tell me at least
Lexie: no Jaden I am not gonna talk about it, do you know the person that sent it in?
Kio: they wanted to remain anonymous
Lexie: I bet you it was one of the bitches from school... you know what i need to make a call I'll be right back (grabs her phone)
Josh: we aren't done talking though!
Lexie: right now we are
Lexie's pov
I walked out of the living room and went to the backyard to call one of my old friends Katherine, she's the only one I can think of that would do something like that to me and to think we were best friends in elementary and middle school. I dialed the number I had by heart and hoped it was the right one and sure enough I heard her voice and I could hear the smirk in her tone and I knew it was her.
End of pov
Phone convo
Lexie: your such a bitch Katherine it wasn't enough for you and Jake to spread those rumors about me in school but now you decide to bring it to social media!!
Katherine: oh please now everyone will know what a slut you really are
Lexie: you know that's not what happened , you know what he did to me that night and throughout our entire relationship!! Hell you played a part in it, I haven't seen or heard from you since I left that damn school so why the hell are you back now!
Katherine: well now that your living with the hottest tik tok boys in the world you might think that your life is perfect and Jake and I just wanted to send out a little reminder that it's not and people need to see you for who you really are
Lexie: you two aren't going to get away with this the truth is going to come out and when it does your going to wish you didn't mess with me
Katherine: (laughs) who's going to believe you, you have no proof and your track record doesn't exactly make you look innocent
Lexie: you better hope I never go back to Tennessee because if I do I swear I am gonna beat your ass and it's not going to be pretty!
Katherine: aww Lexie is that your way of trying to threaten me it's cute but you and I both know your still the scared little girl that got raped and stayed in an abusive relationship and no ones going to believe you and in the end we'll still win because we always have Bye now (hangs up the phone)
Lexie's pov
I wanted to scream and cry and disappear all at the same time because I knew Katherine was right no one would fucking believe me if I said anything and I am just a slut and I did stay with Jake but not because I loved him but because I was scared of him. I knew what he was capable of and the only reason I was able to escape him was when I switched schools and I met the gang and I vowed to myself that I was never going to let anyone hurt me again, never again would I feel emotions and I was just going to numb everything. I walked back inside the house and saw the boys just stare at me which just made me feel awkward.
End of pov
Jaden: who were you on the phone with?
Lexie: no one important
Bryce: are you sure? Because we could hear you yelling from in here
Lexie: how much of that did you hear...
griffin: what did Jake do to you
Lexie: I don't want to talk about it
Jaden: enough with that, I am tired of hearing you say that over and over again I don't care if you don't want to talk about we are going to!!
Lexie: no we are not just drop it Jaden!!
Quinton: we just want to help you that's all we have wanted since you got here
Lexie: well I am sorry to say this Quinton but you can't help me alright! None of you can help me, I am broken beyond repair is that what you wanted to hear!? And even if I did tell you the truth you wouldn't believe me anyway I am just a slut that drinks and parties and gets high right!? At least that's how everyone sees me so why don't you just stop trying to fix me and look at me the way everyone else does!!!
Jaden: do you want to know what I see Lexie, I see my beautiful baby sister crying out for help and uses anything as a distraction or to fill in some type of void, i see you desperate to let go but you keep fighting it but the only way your going to get better is if you let go please let those walls come down
Lexie: why should I!? Why should I let go of the only thing that's protecting me now! Because the second I let those walls come down and I let people in is the second they leave me or hurt me and I am not gonna let that happen again, I won't let that happen again
Jaden: listen to me when I say this and look me in the eyes and believe me when I say no one is going to leave you I am not gonna leave you and neither are any of the other boys
Lexie: oh please I am just a burden to you guys, and don't say that I am not because I know the truth if I wasn't a burden then maybe you would have taken me with you when you went on that god damn tour! Or when you came home that one Christmas and paid any attention to me you would have seen me struggling with the eating disorder!! You would have seen the bruises on my arms, you would have seen that I was becoming broken but you were too busy showing your friends around Tennessee you barely looked in my direction!!! And then you left to LA and maybe if you would have answered my phone calls you would have known what happened between Jake and I and you would know the truth!!!
(Lexie cries with tears streaming down her face and Jaden walks over to her and picks her up)
Jaden: I am so so sorry babygirl I didn't know and I was a shitty brother that got caught up in everything because it was new and exciting but I should have paid attention to you and I didn't and that's my fault but I need you to just tell me everything and I promise that I will never leave you alone again, I will take you everywhere I go with me (rocks her back and forth and runs his fingers through her hair) I love you so much princess
Lexie: (looks at him with tears in her eyes) you really want to know what he did to me Jaden?
Jaden: yeah I do
Lexie: h h he he he (starts breathing heavy)
Griffin: she's having a panic attack
(He walks over to Lexie and sits in front of her)
Lexie: I i c c can't
Griffin: I know listen to me right now just focus on my voice okay and only my voice, try to copy my breathing in and out, in and out, in and out
(Lexie starts breathing normally after a few minutes)
Lexie: Jaden p p please don't make me say it
Jaden: I won't not right now at least I don't want you having another panic attack just relax okay
Lexie: o o okay
Jaden's pov
I kept rocking her back and forth for a little while until i looked down at her puffy cheeks and dry tear strains and my broken little sister in my arms and realized that's the most she's opened up since she got here and as much as it hurt to hear her say those things she was right I wasn't there for her and I am gonna spend the rest of this time making it up to her.
End of pov
Griffin: guys should I just say what everyone is thinking
Bryce: if we are thinking the same thing I am going to hunt that son of a bitch down and kill him
Josh: no you won't Lexie needs you here instead of In jail
Blake: so we just let him get away with it
Jaden: guys stop we don't know everything yet okay let's just wait for Lexie to (his phone starts ringing)
Noah: who is it?
Jaden: Michael (answers it and puts it on speaker)
Phone convo
Jaden: hey Michael what's up?
Michael: have you checked TikTok room
Jaden: yeah like thirty minutes ago
Michael: no you need to check it right now, where's Lexie by the way?
Jaden: sleeping in my arms what now?
Micheal: just check and Rafy and I will be over in a bit
Jaden: okay Later
Micheal: bye
End of phone convo
Kio: I'll check it (pulls his phone out)
TikTok room post
This just in another different anonymous source has claimed that Lexie was in a relationship with Jake and that he assaulted her multiple times throughout the relationship and stated that the sex tape that got leaked was the first night that they met and she had no idea what he was capable of at the time and there's more to the story but she wasn't going to expose everything and Lexie has yet to speak on the situation and so do the boys, but if this information is true then we hope nothing but the best for her moving forward
Kio cyr: take this down, this is something that is going up he handled privately
Griffin Johnson: I had my issues with TikTok room in the past and I have let a few of them slide but this is disgusting whether or not it's true it's not your story to tell take this down
Josh Richards: it wasn't enough for her eating disorder to get exposed but now this delete it
Jxdn: we'll be taking a few days off social media to handle this privately until then I ask that you don't post anymore anonymous messages and take this one down
End of tik tok room post
Quinton: this is such an invasion of privacy and fucked up what are we going to do
Jaden: I don't know but the only one that can really tell us the full truth is Lexie
Blake: what if it triggers another panic attack?
Noah: wait guys what about when she wakes up instead of telling us out loud she writes it maybe it won't trigger it
Griffin: this is unknown territory we are walking into let's just wait for Rafy and Micheal
Bryce: Addison just texted saying she wants to come over but it's your call
Jaden: I don't know I just need to think for a second and get some air can one of you take her?
Kio: yeah I got her (walks over to Jaden and picks her up) should I put her in the room?
Jaden: no I don't want her waking up by herself just lay her on the couch or something (stands up and goes to the backyard)
Josh: I am gonna go talk to him, Bryce you want to come?
Bryce: yeah
(Josh and Bryce follow Jaden outside)
Jaden: she was assaulted and I had no idea (puts his head in his hands) I should have known, I should have answered her calls this is my fault isn't it?
Josh: no Jaden you can't think like that it's not your fault no one would have thought that something like that would have happened to her
Bryce: and the only person to blame in this is Jake, he's the one that did it, it's his fault and we are going to make sure we get lex the help she needs and put this guy away for good okay
Noah: guys come inside Lexie's having another nightmare!
(Jaden, josh and Bryce run inside and see Lexie thrashing on the couch screaming and a few seconds later jumps up and looks around the room)
Lexie: w w where is he??
Josh: he's not here, your safe and your okay, your in the house with us no ones going to hurt you
Lexie: wait a second h how d do y you g guys k know?
Quinton: tik tok room posted again...
Jaden: baby why didn't you tell me? (Walks over to her)
Lexie: I couldn't I didn't want anyone to know... no one was supposed to find out (she starts crying again and the front door opens)
Rafy: guys where are you?!
Bryce: living room!
(Rafy and Michael walk into the living room and see Lexie crying in Jaden's arms)
Michael: so the rumors are true then?
Griffin: yeah
Michael: I am so sorry Lexie that happened to you
Lexie: not your fault
Blake: how do we handle this situation?
Rafy: well I think you should start by going live
Lexie: I am not ready to talk about it
Rafy: that's okay you don't have to the boys can go live and they won't say anything you didn't want them to
Lexie: how can they speak about it when they don't even know the full story and I can't get more then two sentences without having a panic attack and I have already had two today I don't want to have another one
Rafy: you don't have to tell us everything right now, just let the boys go live and clear up some stuff okay?
Lexie: o okay
(Lexie pulls away from Jaden and goes to sit on the couch across from them and Jaden goes live on his Instagram account)
Live stream
Jaden: hey guys we just wanted to hop on here real quick because of all the drama that's going on in TikTok room first of all the post that was sent in this morning was a huge invasion of privacy and shouldn't have been posted in the first place but the second post about her and Jake's relationship was an even bigger invasion of privacy and that's not okay
Griffin: for those of you that are wondering yes what she went through is true and we will deal with it off social media for now and until Lexie decides if and when she wants to talk about it because it's her story to tell not tik tok rooms or any other anonymous source
Quinton: in the short time that she's been in LA she's become a little sister to all of us and we will protect her as much as we can especially now
Josh: so with that being said we have all decided to take a little break and deal with everything and we ask that you respect us, we love our supporters more then anything but no matter what family comes first
Bryce: we love you guys and we'll see you soon
(Jaden ends the live and Lexie walks back over to him and sits on his lap)
Lexie: I just want this whole thing to be one big nightmare that I wake up from (mumbles)
Jaden: I am so sorry that this happened to you and I wasn't there for you
Lexie: I forgive you (hugs him)
Jaden: really?
Lexie: yeah I need you Jae as much as I pretend that I don't but I do
Josh: we love you so much and we want you to know that okay?
Lexie: okay I love you guys too, I'll be right back though (gets off Jaden's lap)
Jaden: where are you going?
Lexie: bathroom
Jaden: okay
(Lexie walks out of the living room)
Kio: guys what if we got out of LA for a bit and surprise Lexi with a vacation
Bryce: are you gonna come with us this time (jokes)
Kio: are you guys gonna just leave again
Griffin: maybe if you wake up instead of sleep in then yeah
Kio: (shakes his head) whatever but yeah I think we should all go
Rafy: where do you guys want to go? Like off grid somewhere
Jaden: it's not really off grid but Lexie has always wanted to go to the theme parks in Orlando, we were gonna go for her thirteenth birthday but had to cancel last minute
Michael: so Orlando then, I can book the jet and make reservations at the hotel
Rafy: that's my job though
Michael: I'll do it this time it's fine
Josh: yeah that sounds good when should we leave?
Jaden: tonight
Micheal: okay I'll have the jet ready to leave in a few hours
Quinton: I hope this takes her mind off it for a little while at least
Noah: yeah
Scene change
Lexie's pov
I wasn't really going to the bathroom I went upstairs to my room to find my phone charging on the nightstand since I didn't grab it when I woke up and the boys have been downstairs so they probably didn't think to grab it and I went on Twitter first and saw that TikTok room was trending along with my name and I saw the posts for myself which made it all the more real. I saw the tape first because even though it got taken down it was already too late people had screen recorded and posted it and I saw a bunch of people saying "she's such a slut" "she probably leaked it looking for attention" "just another reason to hate Lexie hossler" "she doesn't deserve to he Jaden's little sister" "this just makes her more of an embarrassment" "she needs to leave asap" tears threatened to come out of my eyes but I have cried so much today I don't think I have anymore tears left to shed. I just want to escape, I need to drink, I need to get high. I need something to numb the pain and the only person I thought to text was Brandon so I did.
End of pov
Text convo
Lexie: hey
Brandon: omg hey Lexie I was going to text you but I figured I would just let you reach out to me how are you?
Lexie: I want to numb the pain... I can't take it anymore Brandon this is exactly why I was perfectly fine being the invisible little sister living in Tennessee
Brandon: if that were true we wouldn't have met though
Lexie: you would probably be better off not knowing me then, all I do is cause problems Brandon and I am going to keep causing them because I don't know what else to do
Brandon: stop it that's not the only thing you do, look I know we've only met a few times but your different then the people I have met and I want to be there for you if you'll let me, I know you have a past but that's your past don't let it define you
Lexie: how can I not when my past keeps following me? I can't escape it even though I thought I did...
Brandon: you just gotta keep fighting okay?
Lexie: I am to tired to fight
Brandon: well find the strength
Lexie: okay fine.. thanks B
Brandon: your welcome text me later
Lexie: I will :)
End of text convo
Knock knock
Bryce: lex you good I thought you were in the bathroom but I saw the door open so I knew you weren't in there
Lexie: yeah I am fine (wipes her tears)
Bryce: I am coming in
Lexie: you don't have to really I am fine
Bryce: no your not
(Bryce opens the door and sees Lexie quickly put her phone in her pocket)
Bryce: come on lex I know what's in your pocket give it to me
Lexie: no please don't take it I barely get to keep my phone anymore
Bryce: that's because we are trying to protect you give me the phone
Lexie: no I need to know what people are saying about me...
Bryce: no you don't because what they say doesn't matter alright? (Walks over to her and takes her phone out of her pocket)
Lexie: Bryce please...
Bryce: no now come on let's go back downstairs
Lexie: fine
(Lexie and Bryce walk downstairs and she goes to sit between josh and Jaden with her arms crossed)
Blake: you okay lex?
Lexie: no Blake obviously not my life has been exposed for everyone to see and now Bryce won't even let me have my phone
Jaden: alright I'll make you a deal we'll give you the phone but you delete the social media apps for right now, you don't have to deactivate but just delete them
Lexie: better then nothing I guess
Bryce: okay
Josh: anyways on a lighter note we've been talking and we decided that we are going to take a vacation for a couple days
Lexie: where are we going?
Jaden: that's a surprise but go pack clothes for the heat
Lexie: okay when do we leave?
Griffin: in two hours we are taking the jet to avoid the airport
Lexie: are you serious!?
Blake: yup
Lexie: okay I'll go pack now (gets off the couch and runs upstairs to her room)
Noah: I think that's the most energy I have seen from her all day
Jaden: I just hope this takes her mind off of everything for a bit we all need it
Noah: let's make a pact right now that when we get to Orlando let's just not even talk about the situation so we don't trigger Lexie and just give ourselves a break from it all deal?
Boys: deal
Lexie's pov
I went up to my room and turned on my Alexa to play music while I grabbed my suitcase and packed a bunch of shorts, crop tops, pajamas, bikini's and other lady essentials that I might need and an hour later we were all packed and ready to go. We stopped at McDonald's to eat since we hadn't eaten anything all day and around eight we boarded the jet and started flying to who knows where, I stayed awake for a little while but eventually I fell asleep on Jaden's lap.
