6. A New, Stronger and Blue Juliet (2 Best Friends Reunited)

At the end of the street of Verona Drive, in a garden filled with dark Blue and gray gnomes, meaning like it was a police department. Inspector Grayson came in with his 2 men that were holding Gnomeo with handcuffed behind his back. They lead him inside a shed with jail cells, and they lead him down a hall with cells on both sides and they put Gnomeo in the middle of the left side.

Gnomeo´s POV

It was hours after I got arrested for "smashing" Tybalt by Lord Redbrick and the Reds, even though I was innocent but it´s no surprise that they would blame for it. I paced back and forth in my jail cell, trying to figure out what I´m going to defend myself for the court case in a couple of days. I knew that there was no way I could get out of this, and I could be found guilty by the judge with all the "supposedly" evidence they found in the alley. I was so worried as I kept passing back and forth. Soon a cop came toward me with some news.

"Mr. Blueberry, there's a girl named Rosaline Sapphire here to see you, you've got 5 minutes, miss"

Suddenly, a girl with long blonde hair in a blue dress and blue hat came in. She was wearing dark sunglasses and a black hood on top of her. I looked at her, confused, because I have never seen this girl in my life? Would she know me? Because I certainly don't know her. She walked down the hallway toward my cell; she looks up at me as I got close to her, still confused.

"I'm sorry, there's got to be a mistake because I don't know you, miss" I was concerned about her.

She then let out a smile at me, which confused me even more "Are you sure about that? She asked as she showed her eyes over her sunglasses, and I was shocked because her eyes were green and I recognize those esmerald eyes and that voice anywhere. It was my Juliet!

"Juliet? I wided my eyes, shocked that this couldn't be my Juliet but my worries and doubts vanished when I heard her voice again, the same angelic voice that I love.

"Shh, you're going to blow my cover" she says softly while looking around, making sure nobody recognizes her. But then she got closer to me and I kiss her through the bars. Yep, this was the Juliet I knew and loved.

"Sorry. But what and why..? I was lost out of words by her, by her disguise

She takes off her sunglasses and her hood down and I see her once-Red-but-now-Blue hat and she kisses me through the bars and I held her hands

"What are you doing here? And why are you Blue and blonde?

"After you got arrested by my Dad's fault, he locked me up like if I was his property or something. So I came up with this plan to change my appearance to escape and I am never going back. I grabbed some blue that I found in the garden and yellow paints; I let down my hair and I sprayed myself and changed my name and my personality"

I stayed silent for a moment when I heard about the blue paint she found in her garden and it made me realize that that was the same can of paint that I used on the night I attacked the Red garden and when I met her. She must have found and used all up. It really surprised at first by her color but to be honest, I think she looks gorgeous as my Blue color. But that will never change my feelings for the Red I fell in love with in the first place.

"You completely changed your color and your name just to be with me?

"For you. I'd be capable to do anything if it's for you. Listen, Gnomeo. I don't care what anybody says. I know it wasn't your fault. I know you didn't do it on purpose. I know you're innocent..."

"Juliet. Juliet, listen to me, I swear to you for what you love in this world that I never wanted this to happen, especially not let anybody know about us. I am not a murder; nothing that the Reds say is true. You got to believe me" I beg as I cupped her face in my hands, seeing that she was starting to tear up.

"I do believe you, my love" she sobs

"I'm trying to be strong for you but this is all so sudden. I don't know what they found but I swear to you that I am not a murder" I whisper to her, serious

"You don't need to swear anything to me. I know you and you don't deserve this. And I promise that I will get you out of this place"

"I didn't do anything! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! I gritted my teeth, screaming, going out of control

"Calm down, my love. Listen to me, I believe in you because you have a noble soul and a brave heart. And I know that this isn't your fault, plus my cousin never cared about me so why I should care about him?

"Juliet, no matter what happens to me, no matter what happens. You know that I love you, right? So I need you to be strong because I know you too, and you are the most beautiful, the strongest and most challenging girl I have ever met and you also have a fearless heart, more fearless then mine. You understand me? He says, serious and she nods as he wipes her tear with his thumb.

"I promise I will do whatever it takes to get you out of here. Because I know you and you don't deserve this"

"And I will find a way to keep my promise to you but Juliet; I don't think your father is going to allow you to leave your garden after this mess"

"I don't care what he thinks or what he'll do to me. I love you and I'm on your side every step of the way. And besides, I'm never going back to that place where I'm kept as a prisoner, I ran away and I would ran away with you if I have to" she smiles through her tears and I kiss her again.

"Miss Sapphire, time is up" a cop gnome inform

Juliet slowly backs away, not wanting to let go of our hands "Stay put because I will get you out of here" she whispers and she kisses me through the bars "I love you! She cries as she lets go of my hand as she walks away from me

"I love you too! I cry back at her

I watch her leave as I hold on to the bars until she was out of my sight. I felt upset and scared for her that she had to go this far to come and see me. She changed her entire self, her color, her name just to be with me. I don't know if I felt guilty by this because I don't want her to change, not for me and not for anybody, because I fell in love with her as a Red not a Blue or any other color. And another thing that worried me about her was what if she gets caught and her father takes her back to the Red garden? Oh, I wish I could break out of here to protect her from those monsters that treat her like a prisoner. She deserves someone to look out for her and who loves her. I don't know if I was worthy of her but

Juliet´s POV

I put on my sunglasses and my hood up again, making sure nobody recognizes me. But while looking around, heading toward the exit I bumped into Lady Blueberry.

"Oh, excuse me, dear" Lady B said

"Sorry, ma'am" I said nervous in a high pitch voice

I passed next to her and headed to the door, until my dad rushed in running, looking all desperate. I tried not to look at him in the eyes or he'll recognize me pretty quickly. I hid my face and turn around not to face him.

"Inspector! Help me. My daughter disappeared! Lord Redbrick came in running to the front desk

I knew I had to leave know or he will recognize me and he will take me back to the place I would never in my life go back, I quickly ran out the exit. But before I could, I heard someone calling me.

"Excuse me, Miss" I heard the Inspector behind me, "Uh oh, have I've been recognized? I thought, worried, I stood still.

"Yes? I said in a high pitch voice, as I turn to the Inspector

"We were wondering if you've seen this girl? Inspector Grayson asked as he showed me a picture of myself, I needed to act like I never saw this girl, even thought this girl was me (A/N: Yeah, that confused me too)

"No, Sorry, I haven´t" I said, high pitchy

"All right, sorry to waste your time, miss. You have a nice day" Inspector Grayson said and let me pass and he walked toward the front desk where Lord R was getting desperate "Don't worry, Lord Redbrick, I'll have my men find her. But I issuer you that we will find her" Grayson said to him.

"It's not good enough! I am willing to pay a fortune to find her! Look for her even under the rocks! Lord R demanded, angrily and it made me ran out that door.

I set out the exit but I took one last peek into inside, I saw my dad sobbing and had a worried look on his face. I looked down at the ground, thinking that maybe running away and leaving my father was a big mistake. After all, I was the only family left to him but I then shake all those worries for him and I grins angrily toward him, and left the doorway as I scoff angrily.

The once-red gnome headed to my new home, it was to my good friend Amy's garden. Amy Greenly was a green girl gnome, she had long light brown hair with a green hat and green dress a bit like mine and she had clear hazel-colored eyes. After I went to go see Gnomeo in jail, I stopped at Amy's garden to ask for her help and let me stay there. Later that night, hearing all the sounds of the streets, the animals, the people and all you could expect during the nighttimes, but that didn't scared me, it never did. Like on the night I went to go get the Orchid. I knew it was risky but it was the only way I would get the respect I deserved but I think fate gave me something even better that changed my life that night. With the full moon and the shining stars above me. The now blonde Juliet wonder cautiously through the pavement on my way to a large house, I passed through the front yard while the owners were sleeping and I tried not to make any noise. I made it to the back gate; I knocked and waited until my friend Amy answers and she did. I smile when I saw her but Amy had a confused look on her face when she saw the masked girl coming in her garden and I had my back turn at her.

"Uh... can I help you? She asked but I ignore her and came in her garden "Hey, you! Who are you? You can't just come in people's garden like that! Hey, I'm talking to you! Amy asked & yelled, but no response.

"Oh, my Amy, how little do you know me? I laugh as I turned around. Amy opens her mouth wide and her eyes widen and I smile at her. We both light up a smile on our faces and we squeal in joy, knowing that we haven't seen eachother in a long time but a really LONG time.

"Julie? Julie! Amy exclaim and the 2 friends embraced, tightly

"Oh, Amy, it's been so long" I chuckles. I haven't seen my friend forever since my mum died and she was the best and only friend who treated me and accepted me for who I am.

"And I missed you much" I hug her tight

"Yeah, me too. And tell me, what brings you here? How are things in your garden? Amy asked, letting go of her embrace. And she invites my in her garden and they sit down on a little wooden bench.

"Bad. Really bad" I say, looking down at the ground, depress.

"What? Why? Did your dad put you on your pedestal again? Amy ask, concerned that her friend is in trouble.

"No. He did worse. Much worse" I frown

"What? Tell me, I'm here for you, Julie" she said as she rubs my arm

I take a deep breath, getting ready to tell her the truth "Well, it all started 3 days ago..." I sat down and started telling Amy my entire story.

From when I met Gnomeo, the Blue, our meeting, the our date, then to the incident of my cousin and how Gnomeo got hurt and got blamed for it and that's why my Dad denounce him and now he's in jail and why she had to change my entire self and my name and why I came here to ask for her help. After hearing my story, Amy felt bad for me and she pats my back, and it made me feel a little bit better.

"... and that's what happen, that's why he's in jail, even though he's innocent and I have no idea what to do to prove his innocence" I say as I wipe off my tears

"I'm really sorry, girl. But I know that this is all going to clear up soon, because I know you're not going to let him end up in prison. And of course you can stay here as long as you need but you have to tell your Dad you're ok, he must be worried about you"

Realizing she was right, I nod my head while wiping of my tears "You're right, I'll call him but there is no way that I'm going back there"

Back in the gray police garden

Lord Redbrick was still worried and desperate about his daughter. He sat down in the lobby on a chair with his hands on his face, with worries and questions like "Why would she leave? Was she hurt? Where was she?

Soon a police gnome calls him from the front desk with a telephone in his hand

"Lord Redbrick, you have a phone call" he informs him and Lord R gets up and walks toward the desk "Thank you" he says as he sat back down.

"Hello?

"Hi, Dad"

Lord R gasps and stood up "Juliet, what the heck you were thinking? Are you all right?

"Yeah, Dad. I'm fine" I say shakily

"Why in the world did you leave the garden? Where are you? I'll come get you"

"Dad, listen. I just called to say... I love you and goodbye" I sigh

"Juliet, don't...! Lord R yelled but it was too late, Juliet already hanged up on him

"At least I know she's ok" he sighs

I hang off the phone and I sigh afterwards, feeling bad for leaving my Dad like that and I was starting to think that maybe this was a mistake and that I shouldn't have done this. Feeling upset, Amy put her arm over Juliet, pulling me into an embrace, knowing that her friend needs her help and she was more than happy to help her.

"It'll be ok, Julie" Amy said, trying to cheer me up

"I don't even know if I'm doing the right thing"

I frown for a moment and sigh, but I then shake all of my worries away and replaced them with remembering what is happening and what I needed to do for Gnomeo's trial case and how I needed to sneak in tomorrow, to be there for him but at the same time not get recognize by any of the Reds, Blues or cops.

That night, Amy's parents happily agree to let me stay with them in their garden for as long as I needed to and they also promised to go with me to the court house if I needed to but I said that I could only have Amy to accompany me and they were ok with that because Amy was a girl that knew a lot of things, she loved to read a lot, she even had an accessory that was a book, she always had her nose stuck on a book. Amy showed me around her garden and everybody was happy to receive me with open arms and that made me smile. The thing that made me smile about Amy's garden was that there was no feud or fight with her next door neighbours, who were the orange gnomes next door and they all get along. I just wished that my garden would just get along with the Blues because there is no point of having a feud or any reason to fight about.

Amy gives me a spot where I could rest, next to a patch of flamboyant flowers. As all the green gnomes got ready for bed and all the security lights were turning on. Before I went to sleep, I look at myself in a mirror that Amy gave me, seeing that this girl in the mirror was not me, this was just a disguise that hides her true self from people who wants to separate her from her love, a Blue.

I sigh as I put the mirror on my chest "Look what I've become to get this far" I sigh and closed my eyes and I fall asleep but I couldn't get any sleep at all by thinking of tomorrow of how I was going to face my father, but not knowing that his own daughter was right in front of his eyes.

That was soo cool and soo sweet! U guys have no idea of how many times I asked myself ¨What would she look like in Blue? So I made the experiment and to tell u the truth she looks better in purple but she looks cute in Blue too. Anyways, I came up with the Amy character based on my real-life best friend and editor, (fanfare!) ERICA KELLY! And I did the exact same details as her character; I hope u like her because I'm planning on having her around for the next few chapters ;) (I HOPE U LIKE YOURSELF AS A GNOME, GNOMITA!* And again, FELIX CUMPLEAÑOS (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!) I'll text u later

Another reason why I came up with her was that I thought my girl Jules deserves to have a little girl time and another gnome best friend, other than Nanette so I came up with her. And I hope u liked the chapter, the dramatic chapter is up next, with a trial in an actual court (DUH!)

ADIÓS! ;)

HASTA LA PRÓXIMA!*
