I had one hell of a scare today when some douche with their head up their ass photoshopped a tweet of Andy's to make it look like he had told everyone that he and Juliet had broken up. However, it was FAKE and I'm so relieved. I knew in my heart that it was fake though, because the way "he" had gone about "telling everyone" was not what Andy would have done. :)

So yay!

I almost cried.

Anyway...

Enjoy!

Fiona sighed sadly, stirring her coffee slowly. "Danni's grandfather passed away last night."

"Are you serious?" Sarah murmured from beside her. "Gosh, I hope the family's handling it okay."

"I'm sure they are." Leo spoke up. "The Millers are a tough family."

Jacob casually rested his arm on the back of the booth and popped a piece of crumb cake that he and Sarah were sharing into his mouth. "When are they getting back?"

"Next week. The funeral is being sorted out and stuff." Leo replied with a half shrug.

"Am I the only one sitting here, feeling like there's someone missing besides Louisa and Danni?" Fiona realized, brown eyes widening.

"Everyone forgot about me, didn't they?" Josh feigned hurt, sliding into the booth beside Leo and setting his coffee down on the table.

"I didn't." Leo grinned. "How's it going mate?"

"Fine," he shrugged, lifting a hand to run it through his hair.

"Your new boyfriend can't cuddle today?" Fiona teased.

Josh tilted his head in confusion and she blushed sheepishly.

"I was trying to fill in for Danni. Sorry."

He rolled his eyes, rolling his tongue over his teeth in slight annoyance. "I was just with Louisa and my mum, we were out getting some 'back to school' things, and then we were standing in front of a hair salon and Louisa was banishing me."

"Oh, she's getting her hair cut today?" Sarah asked, her voice shaking slightly when Jacob's hand brushed against his shoulder as he reached out to grab his coffee.

"I'm sad about it, but I'm also really excited to see how it turns out." Fiona commented.

Louisa let out a breath to brace herself for the first look at her new haircut. When she was turned toward the mirror, she opened her eyes, and smile spread across her face. "Wow, this is going to take forever to get used to! I love it!"

She stood up and followed the hairstylist to the front of the shop, smiling at Mara when she looked up from a book she had been reading.

"Oh my, gosh, you look gorgeous." She gushed, tracing her blonde styled bangs with a finger. "You definitely have your father's hair."

Louisa giggled, moving her hand down the back of her head, her heart skipping a beat at the unfamiliar feeling of short hair.

After paying for the haircut, they left the salon and Mara told Louisa to go hang out with her friends.

"I've got to take Gracie to Amber's anyway." She said and kissed her cheek before walking off down the street.

Fiona twirled a strand of her hair around her finger. "Should I do something new with my hair?"

"Maybe if you curl it like you mom does sometimes?" Sarah suggested thoughtfully.

"Ooh, girl talk, can I join?" Alex smirked, sitting next to Josh, which caused the blond to be scrunched up between him and Leo. Leo scooted farther to the right so Josh could have more room, and he sent his best friend a thankful glance.

"Hi, Alex," Sarah greeted with a smile.

"Hey," he replied and then his eyebrows furrowed. "Sorry, what's your name again?"

"Sarah."

"It's not Stephanie?" he asked.

"No…"

He pointed to Jacob. "And you're not Charlie?"

He chuckled. "No, I'm Jacob."

Alex fell back in the booth, a bewildered expression on his tan face. "Who was I talking to?"

Josh arched an eyebrow at him and shook his head, sipping from his coffee.

"Presenting, Louisa Clarke," Louisa proclaimed, spreading her arms as she walked up to the table.

"Oh my, god, you look amazing!" Fiona gaped in awe. She stood up so she could fiddle with Louisa's freshly cut hair, fawning over it excitedly.

"Wow, Lou, that cut really suits you!" Sarah admired.

Louisa slid into the booth between Sarah and Fiona and smiled at Josh. "How do you like it, Twinny?"

"Looks great," he shrugged.

"So enthusiastic," she teased with a roll of her eyes.

"Doesn't she look amazing, boys?" Fiona asked Jacob and Leo and they responded with a chorus of compliments.

"Alex, what do you think?" Sarah asked and Louisa scoffed, giving him a bored stare.

"Don't give your opinion."

He grinned, shaking his head. "I don't have one."

"Arty, do you want to learn how to draw a panda bear? I can teach you." Gracie offered, opening her sketchbook on the kitchen table and sifting through a box of assorted crayons for a random color.

"Sure," Arthur Lewis nodded excitedly, observing her movements closely as she showed him how to draw the body.

"So you're feeling fine, then?" Amber asked Mara, clutching a cup of tea as she stood next to the kitchen counter.

"Yeah, nothing's wrong, I'm fine and the baby is fine." She shrugged with a smile, popping a chip into her mouth.

"Any weird cravings?" Amber asked teasingly.

"Cantaloupe," Mara made a face.

"Oh, you can't stand cantaloupe," Amber grasped sympathetically.

"It's fine, I can deal with it."

"For the next…nine months?"

Mara sighed, planting her chin on her palm. "Yes."

Amber laughed. "Do you two want to know the sex?"

"Oh, yeah, we want to decide on a name ahead of time." Mara replied.

"Mum," Arthur called, holding up his paper and Gracie did the same with her sketchbook, hollering for Mara's attention. "Look what Gracie and I drew. She taught me how."

"Those are beautiful, darlings." Amber cooed.

"Fantastic job, guys." Mara encouraged.

"Do you want to learn how to draw a boat with Leo?" Gracie asked them.

"Sure, why not?" Mara answered, sitting at the table with Amber.

Review?

"We checked out of this place, been vacant so long, why won't the past just leave me alone? Get out of my head, there's just no more room. How could you forget: there's no me and you? Won't give anymore, nothing's unsaid. There's no me or you, how could you forget?" -The Guest, Automatic Loveletter

So, lately, all I've been listening to has been Juliet because the countdown till the release of "All or Nothing" (her debut solo EP!) has begun and there's only like 17 more days until pledgers get it and I'm a pledger so I'm sO FREAKING STOKED YOU HAVE NO IDEA!

So, yeah, the songs at the end of the chapters may be Juliet/AutoLove for a while. But that's not a bad thing at all... ;)

Thank you all for the reviews, love you! xxx
