Welcome to Gaia! ::

Evan followed dat a** out the door like it was made of bacon and he was starving. He eagerly took her up on her invitation, slowing his pace as he fell into step alongside her. He smiled down at her, struggling to keep his eyes on her face; with the difference in height, the slightest wandering of his gaze would have put it right down her shirt. "It's very," very, very "nice to meet you, Cee. I'm Evan. You a friend of Peyton's, or are you here for the pizza and beer?"

Peyton waited a few moment for everyone to grab a box, then lead the way up the stairs and down the hall, Evan and Cee passing her at some point as she slowed to wait for the others. She caught up after a handful of seconds, shuffling her plant into a one handed hold so she could fish a key out of her pocket(which was redundant, seeing as America had already let herself in), and opened the door for the others.

A shock of bright hair let her know her bestie was already there, and she paused near the little stretch of counter that housed the pizza and beer to give the new book case a curious glance. "What's this?" God, she loved her friends! "When the heck did you pick this up, and how did you even get in here, god, you're a ******** ninja!" The plant was set down, and America would find herself with a tin Sun hunter draped over her shoulders.

A kiss was pressed to the redhead's cheek, a silent thank you, then she straightened a bit and gestured behind her towards the counter. "Boxes can go anywhere, and help yourself to booze and food."

Pale eyes turned to sweep through the room before eyeing the shelf. "This would make an awesome divider between the bed and the rest of the room, if the bed was tucked up close to that corner. Then put a couch there, " she pointed. "And a tv. A desk against the wall, one of those Italian jobs that hides a bed, for Astrid."

Arorangi kept his arm around Lydia long enough to squeeze her thin shoulders affectionately. She really was very easy to get along with, and her quirky, bright personality was very pleasing to be around. He gave her a last pat on her back and then looked down at her feet, a deep, booming laugh escaping from his throat.

"They are fantastic, aroha!" Arorangi said, grinning. "Very fitting for you!"

To the one called Peyton, he said brightly, "I am new! I have only been awake for a few days, but I thought that coming her would help to meet more people while also offering my help! I can carry a lot of weight, and would be happy to help you move into your new place!"

He gave her a thumbs up, and then a quick return kiss to Cee's cheek as she pressed a quick one to his as Arorangi bent and scooped up a few boxes into his muscular arms, hauling them up. He bent his head towards Lydia, indicating that he was going to follow Peyton, and then went upstairs, carting the supplies along with him.

The room was easy enough to find, and once there, Arorangi set the boxes down onto the floor just beside the counter. He made sure they were stacked neatly and then brushed his hands together, looking around the place with a curious sort of interest.

"It is a great room you have!" he said cheerfully. "Very spacious. Congratulations on moving, it is very exciting to finally get a nice place of your own!"

"Ah yes, hello, Peyton, dear! I'm so very glad to meet you as well!" She greeted the woman who approached, the one who, it seemed, was holding this little moving party, before she found herself surrounded by an Aro arm.

Lydia let out a happy laugh as Arorangi complimented her on her slippers, wiggling her toes inside of them to make the giant furry toes wiggle with them before giggling again. He really was so amazing for all of his upbeat attitude and kind words! She enjoyed his company very much. "Thank you!" She exclaimed, giving his arm one last squeeze from her own before he was pulling away, leaving her to go and grab a box, but something else caught her attention before she had a chance.

She might have stared at Cee just slightly in wide eyed awe as the woman sauntered on over to place a kiss on Arorangi's cheek, receiving one in return without hesitation. If only Lydia could ever be so bold! But just the thought of doing anything like that, especially with somebody who, despite only having met him recently, she considered a good friend, had her freckled cheeks warming up dangerously to a bright shade of red.

Shielding her face with her hand in embarrassment, Lydia shuffled her way over towards a box that looked like one who's size she could handle with relative ease (though she sincerely hoped that there wasn't anything breakable inside, on the off chance that she somehow bumbled her grip on it in the moving process).

Turning around to catch the nod from Aro, Lydia followed his, and all of the others, lead, trailing along behind with a careful grip on the single box she had picked up to move. When they reached the room, she slid her way inside past the bodies nearest to the door, and set the box down in the nearest available space, before reaching out with a slippered toe to nudge it even further out of the way, just in case.

And then she just sort of stood there, awkwardly, wondering if now she should just leave or if she should partake in the sharing of pizza and beverage.

Evan was already getting a thumbs up in Cee's book. He was attractive, pleasant and so far she didn't want to stab him in the eyes like some of the men around. Talking to him was easy and that was a plus.

"I'm like twitter queen." Cee laughed, unashamed of the fact. "I think its hilarious though. People all talking s**t and fightin but won't do it to each others faces. Like Taym and Rep be fighting all the time but I don't think I ever seen'em in a room with each other. It's like watching Degrassi or something."

Finally they had access to Pey's new room and Cee followed in behind everyone else and put her box down. She made a show of stretching while she continued to chat with Evan, "Oh I only been here a couple months. So yer like a vet'ran huh?" She playfully jabbed towards him with an elbow and winked, "Gonna show me yer moves sometime?"

"Hey girl!" She waved to America but it was definitely a passing thing. It had become obvious to everyone at this point that Evan had been claimed for the time being.

Back again to the handsome young man, "You wanna beer Evan?"

"Anytime, Pey." America eyed up the small parade of movers that followed Peyton in, smile growing wide Arorangi (hello beefcake) and Evan (hello again, I see your hands aren't full of melons this time but that could be arranged) and all the cute girls now swarming the apartment. "Anytime."

At Abbi's approach, she laughed and gestured toward all the pizza and drinks, "Aren't you Leslie's cute little friend?"

Seeing a few people looking awkward, she raised her voice a bit, calling out cheerfully, "Don't you folks let the pizza get cold or the beer get warm!"

She blew a kiss at Cee but the hey there eyebrows and smiling wink were most definitely for Evan.

"Six A.M.?" Cee came back to Even with a cold bottle. She'd been thoughtful enough to open it as well. "Ionno about that early. Maybe like.. 8. I mean I had a personal trainer that would git me up early but.." Was there anything to do on this island at that time? Cee then gave Evan a playful elbow and a wink. "Maybe though boy. Maybe you could git me up."

She took a sip of beer, 'Ahhhhing' with the cold refreshment. "Oh I'll take a piece. There any pepperoni?"

She glanced around but at the moment there wasn't much seating. "So we're gonna unpack you too, right Pey?" It was only polite to help unpack and get a look at all her stuff.
