Juliet pov
Like every typical day in the life of a gnome I was doing my regualer chores throughout the garden like any normal day, so much stuff was on my mind. I was still upset about a few things that I had said to gnomeo about him having another daughter, but I didn't try to let that bother me too much, after all gnomeo had a forgiving heart and was always gonna be there for me when I needed him and I coudn't have been happier about it. I was calmly looking to my reflection in the side of a puddle, close by to where I was doing some planting, until I was startled by a short high voice.
"Oh hi juliet" I turn around and see stephanie, the mother of the gnomeos daughter whom I wish she wasn't. If she wasn't here then stephanie wouldn't be either.
"Stephanie!" I said back and went back to gardening.
"How are you doing jules?" She said in that innocent girl voice of his.
"Like you care" I mumbled ignoring her.
"Come now there's no need for harshness I was just being nice" She smirlked to me.
"Of course you were" I said getting up and leaving, but she followed.
She stepped in my view stopping me from walking. "What's your deal juliet? What do you have against me?" She said as I looked to the corner of my eye with a mad frown.
"Nothing what makes you think I have something against you?" I said looking back to her.
"You don't seem to like me that much and I don't know why, cause I like you" She smiled.
"Oh I like you too, sometimes I just have a funny way of showing it" I lied, putting on a tight grin.
"Oh that's good, I was starting to think you didn't like me" She giggled and I fake giggled with her.
"But seriously let's talk about something eles" She said happily
"Like what" I asked with a grin.
"Gnomeo!" She said.
"How about we talk about someting eles instead!?" I said not wanting to go into anything with gnomeo to her.
"I'd prefer to talk a little about gnomeo" She said happily
"And I'd prefer not too!" I said back annoyed.
"Oh come on I have just one question?" She tells me.
"About what?" I asked rolling my eyes.
"Gnomeo?" She said in a not so happy way. I felt this was bad news.
"W-What about gnomeo?" I said nervously.
"How's he been treating you?" She said holding onto my arm. I had a feeling she was trying to get somewhere with this, but what.
"Uh, juliet...I asked you a question, and...I'd kinda like an answer please" She said to again with that annoying voice of hers.
"Oh he's been treating me great and all" I said quickly, not wanting to go into details. "He makes a great guy to have around"
"I would say so, he was quite charming when we were dating" She smiled "What kinda things do you guys do together?" She was geting all in my buisness.
"What's it to you?!" I snapped back unexpectedly.
She takes a step back. "Hey it was just a simple question, no need to get sour"
I take a breath in and relax "Sorry" I muttered and answered her question."Well, He takes me out on dates, and we have a little time to ourselves, he always gives me lots of attention and he's always there for me" I said stopping before I go on rambling.
"Where do you guys hang out?"
"Mostly we just find a nice warm place and be alone "
"Hey he did that with me once!" She blurts out
"Oh you don't say!" I said with fake interest.
"What eles does he do for you?" She said so interested in my personal life with gnomeo
I eyed her. "He does sing to me when I need comfort" I grin.
"He use to sing to me too, to make me laugh, and it always worked" Then she started laughng.
I nod like I cared. "Great what eles? I suppose he taught you how to ride a lawnmower too" I muttered crossing my arms in anger.
Stephanie gasped. "He totally taught me how to ride a lawnmower, how did you guess that!?" She said happily.
"That was meant to be a sarcastic joke idiot" I gritted through my teeth. "What!?" She said not hearing my mutter
"I said it was just a lucky guess" I flashed a fake smile to her, I have never disliked her so much in the short time I've known her.
"Isn't that a big coincidence all the things he's done for you he's done for me!" She remembers.
"What are the odds?" I said in a high pitched voice.
"Almost like he still has me in his heart" She sighs.
"Yeah you wish" I muttered under my voice.
"I bet he probably thinks of me all the time" She was getting red with flusster, I was going red with anger.
"Can we please talk about something eles!" I was getting annoyed by her already.
"Why I thought you'd want to talk about gnomeo?" She eyed me.
"In most cases yes but not this time" I said sourly.
"Yeah you're right because you're his wife, you of all gnomes should want to talk about him and yet here I am talking about him" Sge said.
"Then maybe you should stop!" I snap
"Sorry jules I didn't mean to upset you" She said apologizing. "Gnomeo and me just had a lot of fun when we were together, it's hard not to remember all the memories, of me and him, in our past relationship" She sighed happily.
"And your relationship with him will always just be a memory" I hiss under my breath.
"Yes me and him sure did have some fun times...and in more ways then one in you know what I mean" She giggled nudging me. I felt my fist clentch, I wanted no more than to punch her right now. But me being the better gnome I held it back, for now.
"But what ever ways it went we had fun all the same" Stephanie went on.
"We have fun times too you know!" I suddenly annonced to her.
"I know he told me so much, Gnomeo is lucky to have you" She said to my face.
"Really?"
Stephanie nods "For sure. I mean I thought I was good with him, but you seem like the total package, you 2 have more in common than I ever had with him" She said getting all friendly with me.
"Well, we do share multiple common interests" I smiled to her, for real this time.
"And you must really be something special to him, everyone tells me he just goes on and on about every little detail about you that intersts him"
"He does do a lot of bragging about me doesn't he?" I smiled thinking of those times.
"He has a right too, I mean you're pretty, smart, very talented. I wouldn't mind being you for a day!" She nudges me.
"I tend to brag about how lucky I am to have him too" I tell her with a giggle.
"I don't see why you would have a reason not too I mean, Gnomeo is the best, he's handsome, smart, charming" She went on.
"Don't forget clever, and sneaky" I continue her thoughs.
"Very sneaky indeed. I remember this one time he followed me around all day disguised in as a new guy my garden and I had no idea it was him until my brother blew his cover. It was so hilarious" Stephanie laughed aloud.
"Gnomeo tried to scare me by faking a sudden heart attack one time, but he was sick the day before so It wasn't a suprise I actually fell for it" I said embaressed.
"Were you mad when you found out it was a fake?" She asked.
"Totally, I was furious with him, I didn't speak to him for the rest of that day. But I got back at him when I pretended that joelle had drowned, cause she was little at that time. Joelle had a good laught at that too" I said laughing.
"You're hilarious juliet" Stephanie snickered going pink from laughing to much.
"I brag about those things about gnomeo all the time to everyone eles" I admit.
"You have a right too. If I had a man like gnomeo, I'd brag about him too. But I'd do it make other girls jealous, becasue I have a good man and they don't" She cracked up and I joined in on her.
"Gnomeo is the ideal guy, for any girl really. I'm just so happy he picked me" I said thinking of my gnomeo.
"And he raised a great family with you" Stephanie put a shoulder to my arm. "Joelle is a bright kid, and so pleasant"
"So is your Joelle, I mean I don't know her well but seeing as how our daughters get along so great, she seems like the ideal daughter"
"She is the ideal daughter. The 2 of them are like real sisters together" Stephanie said with a warm smile. "Gnomeo made a great daughter and a great family with you juliet"
"That he did, thanks for that stephanie"I said tunring from her with a smile. Maybe I was wrong about her, she wasn't so bad as I thought.
"I hope you and your daughter do okay when he leaves with me and my daughter" she said in fake sorrow.
I flash back around "Pardon me?!" Then again, maybe not.
"Yeah it might hurt but you 2 will get over it, after all, you're both strong girls, you and joelle will get over the fact of not having gnomeo around anymore" She went on acting like she didn't hear me or was no longer aware of my presence.
I walk back to her face. "Whoa! whoa! wait a minuet, what are you talking about 'when he leaves?' Gnomeo isn't going anywhere" I put my hands to my hips.
Stephanie gives me a look of sorrow. "Oh you didn't know, did I forget to tell you?"
"Tell me what?" I got a little nervous.
"I'm sorry to tell you this juliet but the truth is...I came back for gnomeo" She confessed.
"What for?" I asked raising an eyebrow to her.
"So he can be with me and my daughter of course"
"Why would he want to be with you he has a wife and family, me!" I pointed to me.
"Yeah but I was pregnant with gnomeos child before he met you so tecnically he has a family with me as well" She said poking my chest a little.
"You're wrong, gnomeo has one family with me and my daugheter we're his family!" I pushed her away from me.
"My Joelle's his daughter too so she's part of gnomeos family as well, and I'm her mum so I'm kinda his family too" She pushed back on me. Which she really shouldn't have done.
"Well you're not married to him so you have nothing to do with him at all!"
"Maybe I don't but my daughter does" She said.
"No she doesn't! She never had anything to do with gnomeo until you brought her here" I screamed.
"Which is why I brought her here. She's spent her whole life without him, but you've had him with you and you're daughter since she was born. My daughter needs her father with her too"
"Just because joelle is his daughter has nothing on him!"
"Actually it has everything to do with him!" She said pushing me again. "And why are you so concerned? none of this has anything to do with you anyway juliet"
"I'm gnomeo's wife and mother of his daughter, so this has to do with me too!"
"Wel then all I can say is that I hope you have suitors lined up for a new husband then" She smirked.
"I won't need suitors because gnomeo will be my only husband and He's staying right here with me and his family and you will never take him away from me and if you even try...Well let's just say, I hope you know your blood type because you're gonna need some when I'm done with you" I threatened her.
"Whoa slow down jules you wouldn't want to hurt the mother of gnomeos child would you?" She said backing up.
"Gnomeo has only one child and that is the daughter he had with ME, NOT YOU, ME!" I scream.
"Well gnomeo got me pregnant before he met you so technacally my daughter is his first and real!" She said back.
"I am this close to killing you" I grit through my teeth.
"You woudn't do that!" Stephanie said calling her bluff.
"Wanna bet!" I hod my fist up to her in rage.
"If you do anything to me gnomeo's gonna think you did it out of jealousy for me and then what will he think of you?" She said getting to my face.
As much as I hated to see it, she was right, but that doesn't mean anything to me. I coudn't hurt her, yet, but that was all gonna blow over soon.
"But I tell you what...I'll let you have a free throw at me if you want!" She said standing still to prove it.
I took that chance and charged at her, but I should've known she'd go back on her word cause she stepped out of the way and wrestled me face down in the dirt.
"Not as satisfying as I had hopped" She said sitting on my back "And you call yourself good at fighting, what would gnomeo ever see in someone so...DELICATE!" She said in my ear. If she was smart she'd know that word was what sent me into full attack mode.
"You have so asked for this!" I said jumping off her and flipping back to my feet she did the same and got ready to come at me. It was just hand blocking for a moment then I got the act of surprise and judo kicked her to the ground.
"How's it feel being the one in the dirt!" I asked. She took my hands and twisted them over the other, sending me off of her and she got back on top of me.
"I don't know you tell me that sweetheart!" She said spitting in my face a little.
"I am so outta here!" I said stomping away.
"Oh can't handle losing a fight to a stronger opponent Jules" She said in a mocking baby tone, I ignored her and kept walking. "Gnomeo must be so embarrassed to see you in a fight of any kind if you can't win, all the more reason he should be with me, at least I can carry myself in a fight!" I was never more close to cracking her smug little body into blue dust than I was right now.
"Oh what you gonna try and hurt me again Jules!" She said that while poking me.
"I would insist you not poke me like that!" I grit through my teeth.
"Oh I'm sorry, you mean like this!" She said poking me again.
"Knock it off!" I shout. She smirks evilly and pokes me hard in my heart that time. I take my hand, grab her arm, lean her forward and slap her 4 times on each side.
She "Oh it's on now!" She lunged herself at me as we tussled in the dirt, luckily no one was around to see it or I'd be in big trouble.
"I hate you!" I hiss
"I hate you for stealing...my...man!" She said in between punches.
I push her back to the dirt and get over her. "He's not...your...man...he's ..only...MINE!" I snap in between punches too. I get off of her and let her get back to her feet. She ran right back to me and I grabbed her arm and swung her into t hick mud puddle, but she held my arm and took me in with her.
"Gross I hate mud!" Stephanie complained.
"Funny I thought pigs like mud!" I insult her.
"Why you little..." She threw mud in my eyes and then stuck my head into the pit in an attempt to drown me I should say.
"Oh you want to play dirty do you? Fine!" I said taking her by then neck and flipping her into the mud again. We got so covered in mud and grass blades sticking to us, but I had one thing on my mind and that was hurting her. When my head was turned wiping mud away, Stephanie took that opportunity to whack me over the head with a stick, it didn't hurt cause of the thick coat of mud on me, but I still felt it.
I glared back at her and stood to my feet and did a simple kid move and pushed her backwards into the mud. I shook as much mud off my self as possible and walked away.
"Hey where you going? I'm not through with you yet!" Stephanie called shaking her muddy fist.
"I am!" I called stomping away.
"Typical, running away from a fight you really are delicate after all"
I stop in my tracks and bare my fist at her "I am no delicate!" I yell back at her.
"Yes you are, everyone thinks that, gnomeo probably does too!"
"For your information Gnomeo finds me quite hardcore!" I say with a hint of sassy.
"He's just sparing your fragile feelings. I bet on the inside he wishes he had a girl who was actually like him, tough and strong. But I should base that on an if seeing as how he will be mine soon enough!"
I walked over to her and pulled her down by her dress collar. "I'm warning you for the last time, stay away from him, If I see you near him, if I hear you mention him or even come within contact of any kind with gnomeo from this day on you'll never see the light of day again" I warn her before stomping off again.
"And what if he mentions me; the girl he loves!" She smirks poking my stomach.
"HE LOVES ME, NOT YOU, ME!" I say pushing her back from me before I really hurt her.
"Just because you say that doesn't make it true, you can't force him to love you Juliet!"
"I don't have to, cause he loves me by choice!"
"By choice? so he's choosing to love you, he doesn't really love you with all his heart, too bad!" He said with fake sorrow.
"Yes he does love me with all his heart!"
"Men can choose to fake real love you know, which is what gnomeo's doing with you" She said touching my nose.
I turned hot red in the face "Just like you can choose to come near him and I can choose to murder you if you try anything funny!" I said thumping her head.
"Gnomeo wouldn't love you if you did that...not like he ever has loved you!"
I grabbed her by the throat and leaned her closer to me "I swear you come near him and it's..." Then I made that knife to the neck thing, Then I walked away.
"Glad we could have this talk jules" Stephanie waves to me.
"Oh yeah and tell your daughter to stay away from my daughter if you ever want to keep her the way she is now, In one piece" I warned her further and slammed the gate.
I leaned against the wall and sighed. "I think I made my point very well" I said walking merrily to my garden.
"And if that little shrew thinks she can take my man she really has another thing coming!"
Back at the garden stephanie was still waving even as juliet left before she mumbled.
"On the contrary jules it's you who'll never see the light of day if you try and stop me" Stephanie snarled from the distance.
"Mum!" She was startled when she heard a voice.
"Joelle you scared me!" Stephanie caught her breath.
"Sorry mum but have you seen dad? he was suppose to take me and joelle to the movies?" She said.
"No I haven't dear but try in the laurence garden he's probably there with joelle and UGH juliet" I shudder with her name.
"Okay bye" Joelle went off to the laurence garden.
When she was sure she was alone, Stephnaie took out a photo of her and gnomeo back when they used to be a thing and then she took out a photo of her and joelle, looking happy together, She took one long look at her daughter and gnomeo and sighed.
"Oh sweetie I know how much you want your dad in your life as so do I. I promise you I'll get your father and we can be the family we should be" She said in a low whisper before walking eleswhere.
Oh this is getting good, isn't it? You all have no idea what in store for you next time but it's going to get real good and dramatic soon I promise you that :)
Well I gotta go and do my homework *sigh* until next time I'll see you all later.
