Here's chapter 2! It's another boring chapter, I know. Just fluff (I guess that's the right term). Trust me, chapter 3 picks up. And then it changes everything. (HINT HINT!) Also, let's pretend Kalel doesn't have her WatchUsLiveAndStuff channel, kay? XP
Recap: Ian, Anthony, Melanie, and Kalel arrive at the Louisiana Hotel but don't know what a disaster their stay will end up being.
Ian's P.O.V.
The hotel room was really nice.
Anthony and I flung ourselves on our beds.
"Dude, these are comfortable!" Anthony said, sinking his head into the fluffy, white pillows.
"Maybe even more comfortable than our own beds!" I replied, feeling like a little kid again. That's when I got an idea.
"If these beds are really that cool, then we need to see how high we can jump on them!"
Anthony caught my eye. "Yes." We took off our shoes and started jumping up and down.
After jumping for a few seconds, Kalel happened to walk in. She shook her head, hiding a smile.
"Wow. I'm gone for 2 seconds and you're already jumping on the bed." Then she pretended to be a mother. "Go sit in the corner after you make your beds." Kalel wagged her finger at the two of them.
"Yes Ms. Padilla," I said, acting guilty. It felt weird to call her "Padilla". Anthony jumped off the bed and gave her a hug.
"Did you guys hear about the eclipse?" Kalel asked.
"What eclipse?" Anthony asked. This conversation sparked Anthony's attention as well as mine.
"Well, on the 23rd of August there's an eclipse. I can't wait! I've never seen an eclipse before!" I could tell she was excited. I was too. I know how cheesy it sounds but I've always loved science. This was definitely exciting! [1]
"I'm totally going gurrrrl," Anthony said in his best drama-girl accent-thing. "How about you Iuuuuuuunnn?"
"You know it gurrrrrl," I replied, copying him. "But I'll have to get my hair did all purty."
Kalel laughed at us. "Girls are nothing like that."
"Mm, I think they are." I replied, still acting.
"Well, okay then. Anthony, you still up for tonight?" She changed the subject.
"Of course, baby. Why not?" He asked, concerned. They were having a date, I guessed.
"Oh! I thought you and Ian had something planned."
"We have something planned," I said, receiving a confused look from Anthony, "in bed tonight." I said with a smirk. Anthony stared at me like I was crazy. "It's called sleeping." He looked relieved and then asked, "What did you THINK we had planned?"
"I thought you guys had a smosh thing or a filming thing, but I guess not." She waved it off. "Well, I've got to unpack. See ya later!" Kalel left the room, leaving us alone.
"Where are you going?" I asked, sitting on the bed. Anthony began to unzip his suitcase.
"We're going to some dinner at 'Louie's Cafe'. [2] It's supposed to be a vegan restaurant here in Baton Rouge, so we're going to try it out."
"Being vegan sounds hard." I replied. I couldn't imagine no ice cream, no cheese, no milk, NO CHOCOLATE! It's all imitation.
"Not really, if you go to the right places and find the right food."
"What time are you leaving?" I questioned.
"6:00 PM." He began shuffling through the clothes he packed.
"Hm..." I didn't care too much. I hadn't really planned anything to do so I laid back on my pillow, staring up at the ceiling. It was quiet. Birds chirped outside our window. Each minute more people would walk by, a door would open, and a door would close. I shut my eyes, exhausted. I'd stayed up until 2, editing, and then woken up at 4 to drive with Melanie to the airport. Soon, I fell asleep.
Anthony's P.O.V
"So," I started after about 10 minutes of silence. Finally I found the shirt (and my laptop), I'd been looking for. "Found it!" I exclaimed.
"Ian, are you excited for- Oh," I turned around and found Ian asleep on his (or the hotel's) bed. "Then I'll ask you later whether you're excited for the eclipse." I mumbled to myself, zipping up my suit case and sitting down on my bed to pull out my laptop.
On Twitter I laughed at all the fangirls. Not a mean laugh, more like a genuine laugh. "Anthony, will you marry me?" "YOU'RE SO HOT OMG MARRY ME!" "Daniel Anthony Padilla, let me just say I love you." I love my fans. [3]
I didn't realize I'd been on the laptop for 3-4 hours when Kalel came in.
"Ready?" She asked me, looking beautiful as normal. I scratched the back of my head.
"Well, no, not exactly. I was going to change but-"
"C'mon. You look great. You don't need to change. You're not a girl like me." She'd changed into one of her outfits from Japan.
"Okay then, beautiful." I kissed her and we went on our way.
Ian's P.O.V.
I woke up somewhere. It took a few seconds for me to remember I was in Louisiana. I pulled my phone out of my pocket. 7:00?! Wow, I slept for 5 hours.
I rolled out of bed. Melanie happened to walk in right then.
"Hey Mel," I greeted, smiling.
"Hey!" She replied. "I was going to go sight-seeing." Melanie held up her camera, excited. "Lots of pictures to take! Wanna come?"
I thought for a moment. I was just going to chill out in the hotel, but I guess sight-seeing would be more productive. "Sure."
We spent two hours driving around and stopping for pictures. Louisiana was beautiful. When we got back I noticed Anthony was back.
"You woke up, sleeping beauty!" He chuckled.
"Haha." I said without enthusiasm. "Unlike you, I can't sleep on planes." [4]
"See you later, buttface," Melanie kissed me and left. [5]
"So, are you excited for the eclipse?" Anthony asked me.
"Yeah. It's total darkness, right?"
"Yeah." This was going to be awesome!
[1] I'm not sure that's actually true, but it's possible. [EDIT: Today I watched the new Lunchtime w/ Smosh and Ian and Anthony both said their favorite subject is science. :D That's so cool!] {Fanfiction dot net edit: I posted earlier in time. :P}
[2] There actually is a vegan restaurant called "Louie's Cafe" in Baton Rouge, I think. According to Google. I live in Virginia, so I wouldn't know.
[3] I love him too. 33 (and Ian of COURSE!)
[4] Maybe or maybe not true...
[5] Buttface is what Melanie has called Ian in tweets. :P
I hope you enjoyed the fluff in chapter 2! Believe me, chapter 3 picks up big time. :)
Thanks for reading. Feedback is appreciated!
