*Juliet's pov*
beep beep beep
what the hell is that?
beep beep beep
Is that my alarm?
I sighed, and rolled out of bed to go to the bathroom.
I washed my face and brushed my teeth.
I put on my makeup and walked back to my room to pick out my outfit.
I went with a sweatshirt, jeans, and my toms, and went to the kitchen to grab my bags.
Matt emerged from his apartment and he hugged me.
"Are you ready for school?" He smiled.
"Not at all." I laughed.
We both went out of my apartment and went into the subway.
We walked into the Coffee Corner and ordered our coffee. We walked into school and everyone seemed silent.
"Is there something I'm missing?" I asked.
"If there's something you're missing, then I'm missing it too." Matt said.
We went our separate ways and I went to my locker.
Hayes was there, waiting for me.
"Hey! What's going on? Everyone is acting weird.." I said as I unlocked my locker.
"Yeah, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out or something?" He asked as I grabbed my books out.
"Hayes Grier are you asking me out on a date?" I said, pretending to be shocked.
"Very funny, do you want to meet up at my house?" He asked, and I nodded.
"Cool, I'll see you around babe." He said as he kissed my cheek and walked away.
I went to homeroom, I was getting weird stares from people...
****photography****
I sat next to Nash, and he was scribbling in his notebook.
"Hey Nash.." I said.
"Hi." He mumbled and moved away from me.
"Okay, what's up? Everyone's ignoring me and I have no idea why." I said.
Nash sighed and turned back to face me.
"Juliet, I swear to God, this isn't about you." He said.
"Then what is going on?" I said.
"I-"
"Good morning, class." Mrs. Smith said as she put down her bags and started talking about her lesson.
"Tomorrow is the benchmark for the end of the year project, you should have at least twenty photos complete..."
Shit, I have nothing done.
"It will be half of your grade-"
Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit.
I raised my hand.
"Yes! Juliet?"
"What if you have..I don't know..less than what is expected?" I asked.
"You fail."
Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit.
"Oh, okay." I mumbled.
I looked at Cam and he looked back.
"Do you not have anything done, too?" Cam asked, and I nodded.
We're screwed.
****after school****
I walked out of school and waited for Hayes. He was the last one out.
"Let's go, babe." He said as he put his arm around me and we walked to the subway station.
We walked into the train and we sat in two empty seats in the back.
We both plugged our headphones in our phones and started to listen to music.
He grabbed my hand and intertwined his fingers with mine.
"What are you listening to?" He asked as he unplugged his earbuds and put them in his pocket.
I took one earbud out and gave it to him. He put it in his ear and smiled.
It was Lonely Boy by The Black Keys, which was from the "Everything I Should've Said" playlist.
"Do you really like this playlist?" He asked.
"Of course I do." I smiled, and he kissed me softly.
The train stopped and we got up and walked to Hayes's house.
I dropped my bags and we went to his room.
He put in his video game and we started to play. I won, but only because he let me win.
I was sitting in his lap as he wrapped his arms around me and played that way.
After a few video games later, the sun was setting and Hayes pulled me off his lap.
"Are we going on that date now?" I asked, and he nodded.
He grabbed my hand and we walked outside to grab a taxi.
We finally got one and we went inside.
"What, no secret blindfolds again?" I laughed.
He raised his eyebrows and reached inside his pocket.
It was a fucking bandana.
"You suck." I stuck my tongue out at him and he tied the blindfold on me.
It was a small ride, and Hayes kept his hand locked with mine.
"We're here." Hayes said as he led me out of the taxi and I stood on the street. I think he was paying the driver.
"Okay, are you ready?" He asked and I nodded. He undid my blindfold.
It was the outdoor skating rink. Just like the one on our first date.
"Hayes..." I smiled, remembering everything that happened that night.
"Can you skate this time? Or do I need to help you?" He asked and I laughed.
"I think I'm good this time." I said as we walked in and rented our shoes.
His feet aren't as big as I thought they were.
We put on our skates and walked to the rink.
He put his hand at the bottom of my back and guided me.
At first, I was shaking because I haven't been on the ice in a while, but Hayes helped me through it.
After a few laps around the rink, I was getting hungry.
"Let's go grab something to eat." I said as he agreed.
We returned the skates and hailed a taxi.
Hayes whispered to the driver, so I had no idea where he was going.
We ended up right in front of the Cheesecake Factory.
"Oh my god." I gasped.
This was just like our first date.
We made our way through a line of people and Hayes talked to the hostess.
"Hi, I made a reservation." He said and the hostess rolled her eyes.
"What name?"
"Grier."
She checked her computer and nodded.
"Follow me." She said as she grabbed two menus and led us to the table.
We sat down and we ordered drinks.
Hayes was biting his nails.
"Are you okay?" I asked.
"Juliet, I have something to tell you." He said.
"What?"
"Nash and Cam are moving to California."
~.~
A/N: sorry if this feels a little rushed. And I only said this because Nash and Cam wanted to move in together for a while so I'm pretty sure they planned that during Magcon or something. That's my theory. Don't hate on me, lol.
Do you think that Nash and Cam moving (in the story) a good thing or bad thing? There's more to come!
I love you guys and thanks for everything!
