"Okay good!" Gemma says giving him a plate of food. "It was...good...eventful." She says laughing, thinking about all the chaos going on, on Twitter that has to do with her at the moment. "What about yours?"

Lexi arrives at the place where she had planned to meet up with Layla for lunch, wearing one of her signature crop tops and jeans. It had been a while since she last talked to her and was excited to be hanging out again.

Lexi considered Layla to be one of her good friends that she could talk to and she definitely needed some girl time right now. She picks out a table outside for them and sits down, looking through her phone as she waits for Layla to show up.

Lexi sees Layla coming her way and she puts her phone down before standing up. She smiles as she welcomes her with a hug. "Oh my god. Hey! It's been too long. You look amazing. I'm doing pretty okay these days. How about you," Lexi says as she sits back down at the table now.

She was beyond happy to be sitting across from Layla right now as they finally are able to catch up with one another after all of this time.

Lexi nods as she listens to her explain how she's been after all this time. Just like everyone else, she had heard about what's been going on with Layla but she didn't want to bring it up unless Layla did first. Lexi knew better than anyone that sometimes you don't want to talk about certain private things.

"I'm glad you're doing better now and it's so great to see you again." Lexi continues smiling as she thinks about how the year has been for her so far. She definitely had her share of troubles as well. "I've just been taking care of my son and working on my music. I'm sure you've heard about all the drama lately. I finally feel like all that is over now and I'm glad because I honestly just want to focus on the more important things in my life. Oh, that reminds me," Lexi says as she takes out her phone and searchers through it for a picture of her son. She then shows it to her. "He's gotten so big now. I can't believe he's one already."

Lexi nods agreeing with all that she was saying. "Yeah, tell me about it but I'm over it all you know. I'm just really happy to have such great family and friends to help me get through it. They've been a tremendous help." Lexi looks down at her phone at the picture of Nicolai.

"Yes. He's doing both now. I don't have him today but when I do again, you can see him for sure. He'll love you." She keeps strolling through her pictures to see a picture of her fiance pop up. "Oh and not sure if you know but I'm with a new guy now. We're engaged," Lexi says with a smile as she shows her the picture of Beau on her phone. "He's hot right?"

Lexi smiles at Layla. "It really does. Having a great support system around you really helps. I'm glad we're both doing well too, you especially. I really hope that you're happy now and things will be completely fine. You'll kill at this solo thing," Lexi says trying to be supportive for Layla.

She takes another look at her phone before looking back up at Layla. "Oh I definitely will." Lexi grins as she starts to think about Beau and how they met. "Well he tweeted me one day saying how hot I was and we've been talking ever since then. I thought he was really hot too when he tweeted me and I just remember wanting to know who he was you know. It's like very often that I'm interested in a guy and especially then when my break up with Elyar was so fresh.

I was just ready to move on because things were finally over for good with him. I'm glad too because it's great finally dating someone my own age now. Beau really gets me and he knows exactly what I need. We just got engaged like a month ago. Everything is moving really fast but to me it's not a bad thing. Like I haven't felt this kind of love before and really what I had with Elyar was puppy love. I've finally found the real thing now."

Lexi studies Layla while she listens to her speak. She could tell that something was going on with her but she didn't want to pry and make things worse. "Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. It seems scary now because you're doing something new but things will get better. This will be a new chapter for you and everything will be just fine. You'll see."

Lexi smiles as she couldn't quite hide how happy she was at the moment. "Thanks so much Layla. I really appreciate it. Of course. It'll be fun. Speaking of that, I'm starving. Want to get some pizza now?" Lexi knew that Layla really loved pizza and so did she, which was why she had them meet up someplace that served pizza.

"Oh yeah, I definitely get what you mean but from what I've seen you have the support of your fans. Which is really awesome you know because usually fans hate this sort of thing but it's good so far. Just know that I'm here for you and if you ever need anything at all don't hesitate to ask."

Lexi laughs finding her enthusiasm for pizza very amusing. "Girl yes, I'm so hungry." She grabs her menu and looks at it to decide which she wanted. "I think I'm going to go for the Hawaiian pizza. I love pineapple and ham together."

Lexi smiles back at her. "No problem. You'll definitely be the first person I call if the occasion ever rises. As far as needing someone to talk to I'll take you up on that. I have a lot going on in my head right now that I'm sure eventually I'd like to talk to you about."

Lexi closes her menu and puts it down after deciding what she wanted. She laughs at Layla's attempt of a fancy impression. "You picked a great one too. We'll have to grab a slice of each other's pizza."

erich's car careened down the narrow london streets. this was a feat in and of itself,being near 23 feet of cadillac hearse he was piloting...and while combating the mescaline fueled hallucinations. cars honked and he was given several two finger salutes as he made his way down the road. by sheer miracle of his charmed life,erich managed to not collide with anything or anyone. with a loud screech he slid the car side ways into a parking spot. for all he knew,it was some executive's reserved spot. but fuck em, he dared someone to tow that car. erich didnt step out of the car as much as he poured himself out. due to the chemicals,he felt more than a little liquid and wasnt going to fight the feeling. he lovingly pats the fender and places the "funeral" flags on the fender. it made it look like the hearse was there on official business and less likely to be messed with.
erich strode with purpose through the doors,tipping his hat at the non existent staff. smelling weed,he stops dead in his tracks and sniffs loudly..yeah,there was weed burning here and he was going to ferret it out. it didnt take long until he found the room with the five fellows he was searching for. " hmm yes. i see whats going on in here. the youth of today partaking of the devils lettuce!" he announces accusingly. "how the fuck you guys been? its been too long. too long indeed." he says jovially,going around to shake everyones hand,but hugging dustyn
