~Check Yes Juliet by We The Kings
Juliet POV:
"Juliet!" A voice yelled across the airport. I looked up and saw my aunt Christine and my cousin, Melanie, frantically waving at me. I smiled and walked up to them.
"Hi Aunt Christine. Hey Mel," I said.
"Oh my goodness!" Aunt Christine exclaimed. "You've grown so much since I've last seen you!"
I laughed. "Yeah. It's been a long time. 2 years."
I grabbed my suitcases and followed them out of the airport. I put my bags in the trunk of the car and got into the passenger seat.
"So, Juliet," my aunt started. "I've already enrolled you in Daniel's school, Iridium High. You're first day is tomorrow."
"Okay," I replied distractedly, looking out the window.
Oblivious to the fact that I wasn't paying attention my aunt kept talking. "Oh, I'm sure you'll love it there. The principal is Daniel's girlfriends father, you know."
"Maddie's mom got married?" I asked incredulously.
"No. Daniel and Maddie broke up for good," Mel told me. "He has a new girlfriend, Emma. She's really nice."
"Good for him," I smiled.
"I'm sure you and Emma will get along great," Aunt Christine. "She and Andi are great friends. Same with Diego."
"Speaking of Andi and Diego, how are they? Mac, too," I asked.
"Andi's still as funny as ever. Diego and Maddie are basically dating. Mac moved to Texas with his dad," Mel replied.
"Wait. Maddie Van Pelt and Diego Rueda are dating?"
"Sorta," Mel shrugged.
"Okay. What about that magician kid, um, Toby? Or Diego's sister, Gigi?" I asked.
"Do you mean Tony?" Aunt Christine asked.
"Oh, yeah, oops," I laughed.
"He transferred to a magic school," Mel said.
"A magic school," I squeaked.
"For magicians," Aunt Christine added, sounding slightly confused. I laughed weakly.
"Gigi runs a gossip blog called Miss Information. Ask Daniel about it," Mel told me, answering my previous question.
I nodded and put my headphones in my ears. Hitting shuffle on my playlist, I quietly hummed along to Check Yes Juliet by We The Kings.
"Check yes Juliet
Are you with me?
Rain is falling down on the sidewalk
I won't go until you come outside
Check yes Juliet
Kill the limbo
I'll keep tossing rocks at your window
There's no turning back for us tonight
Lace up your shoes
Ayo, ayo

Run baby run
Don't ever look back
They'll tear us apart if you give them the chance
Don't sell your heart, don't say we're not meant to be
Run baby run, forever we'll be
You and me
Check yes Juliet
I'll be waiting
Wishing, wanting yours for the taking
Just sneak out and don't tell a soul goodbye
Check yes Juliet
Here's the countdown:
3, 2, 1, now fall in my arms now
They can change the locks, don't let them change your mind
Lace up your shoes
Ayo, ayo

Run baby run
Don't ever look back
They'll tear us apart if you give them the chance
Don't sell your heart, don't say we're not meant to be
Run baby run, forever we'll be
You and me
We're flying through the night
We're flying through the night
Way up high
The view from here is getting better with you
By my side
Run baby run
Don't ever look back
They'll tear us apart if you give them the chance
Don't sell your heart, don't say we're not meant to be
Run baby run, forever we'll be

They'll tear us apart if you give them the chance
Don't sell your heart, don't say we're not meant to be
Run baby run, forever we'll be
You and me
You and me
You and me"
After a few more songs, Aunt Christine cheerily announced that we were there. Grabbing my suitcases out of the car, I walked up to the door. Daniel immediately ran up to me.
"Juliet!" He said, hugging me. I laughed and hugged him back.
"Hi Juliet," Tommy said.
"So, I was wondering if you wore make-up?" Mel asked, randomly.
"Not right now, no," I replied slowly.
"Good," Robbie told me.
I opened my mouth to say something, but before I could a bucket of freezing cold water was dumped on my head.
"T3!" Daniel yelled.
"No, no. It's fine," I said laughing. "But not very original. I thought you guys were better than that."
"I'll show you your room," Daniel said.
I walked down the hall after him. The room was simple, white walls that I could hang posters and pictures on, a queen sized bed with purple blankets, and a desk in the corner.
"So, are you excited for school?" Daniel asked as I put my clothes in the closet.
"Yeah, I guess. Aunt Christine said it's a great school. And something about your girlfriend's father being the principal," I said, raising my eyebrow.
Daniel sighed. "Yeah, Mr. Alonso. He doesn't like me very much."
I burst out laughing. "What did you do?"
"Nothing! I always get caught for something the T3 does!"
"So, everything he doesn't like you for has been the fault of your siblings?" I asked.
"Well, theirs and Jax's," he said, trailing off.
"Jax?"
"Yeah, he goes to our school. He used to date Emma. When you get to school, stay away from him," he told me, seriously.
I rolled my eyes. "Whatever. I should probably get some sleep, we have school tomorrow,"
"Yeah. Night," Daniel said, standing up.
"Goodnight," I replied. After I brushed my teeth, I changed into a pink tank top with 5sos written on it and black leggings.
The stress of the plane ride today and the thought of school tomorrow finally caught up to me and I was asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
