THIRD PERSONS' POINT OF VIEW

"You know what, let's just forget all of our worries and problems by just staring at the beautiful night sky." Romeo chuckled as he looked up at the sky.

"You're right." Juliet chuckled back as she looked up at the sky as well.

[ A/N: Play the song "Since I don't have you" by The Skyliners for the next part.]

As the both of them stared at the night sky, a music suddenly played behind them. They noticed the music and they looked at each other.

"This gotta be a joke." Juliet chuckled.

"I mean the melody is amazing, don't you think?" Romeo asked.

"It definitely is." Juliet replied as she smiled.

"It's the perfect combination, the beautiful night sky, the music." She continued as she lay down.

Romeo began staring at her more than he has ever stare at her before. He started mesmerizing her beauty and smile. But he remembered that Juliet is taken with Travis, so he stopped staring at her and stare back at the night sky.

"What time are we going back home, Romeo?" Juliet asked.

"It would depend on you, Juliet." Romeo replied.

Juliet suddenly thought that it would be the perfect time for her to confess to Romeo on what she feels about him. She suddenly got scared, because she has never done this kind of first move before, so she thought to herself that she will keep it as a secret for now as she sighed.

Fifteen minutes later of Romeo and Juliet talked about their lives, they decided to went home since it is almost one in the morning.

"I had fun watching the night sky Romeo, thank you." Juliet said as Romeo folds his picnic cloth.

"The person who must thank between the two of us is me. I couldn't feel a relief if you haven't called me through your earrings." Romeo said as he chuckled and he turned at her.

"No problem, Romeo." Juliet chuckled.

As Juliet began walking, Romeo slowly grabbed her hand and she went closer to him. Juliet started getting very nervous as the both of them stared at each others' eyes. Romeo didn't knew that he have done that, but as they stared at each others' eyes, he saw a blurry flashback of something in his past.

"R-Romeo?" Juliet said.

"Have I ever mentioned that you have the prettiest eyes?" Romeo asked with his gentle voice.

Juliet suddenly felt butterflies in her stomach as Romeo asked her that question. If only she is used to do the first moves and she is not pretending to like Travis, she could've kiss Romeo by now. But she remembers that he is still in love with Lauren, so she slowly let go from Romeo's arm and looked down.

"I think it's best if we go home already." Juliet said.

"Y-You're right, let's go." Romeo said then they left.

Meanwhile in the Johnsons' fortune telling place

Meet Mr. Johnson, also known as Michael the fortune teller in their town. At the same time, he is Travis and Lauren's father, who has been very busy in his work that he doesn't have the time to spend with his children. While their mother spends time with them during weekends because of her job in her bakery.

Michael decided to visit his children as he got up from his bed at his fortune telling place. He packed his things and went to his home, as he arrived at their front door, he knocked the door and Lauren opened the front door.

"Dad! What are you doing here?" Lauren said in excitement then the both of them hugged.

"I come here to visit you kids, since today is a holiday and all of us must stay at home and have some rest!" Michael said.

"I miss you Dad! Travis is in the kitchen eating breakfast." Lauren said as they both released from hugging.

"Travis!! Dad is here!" Lauren said as she walked to the kitchen and Michael followed her as he brings his things.

"Oh hi Dad, it's glad to see you again." Travis said as he eats a spoonful of cereal.

"Hello son, same to you." Michael said.

"What breakfast do you want, Dad? I will make it for you." Lauren said as she walked to the refrigerator.

"Oh no need to make me one, I bought your favorite bread!" Michael exclaimed then Lauren jumped in excitement.

"Thank you Dad! I miss this bread so much as much as I do to you." Lauren said.

"No problem honey, I will just put my things inside my room alright?" Michael said.

"Yes Dad, go ahead." Lauren said then Michael left and went upstairs.

"What happened to you, Travis? You weren't excited to see Dad as he came home." Lauren asked as Travis stood up and placed his bowl to the sink.

"Oh I'm fine, I just didn't feel like being too excited towards him, you know." Travis replied as Lauren did the confused face.

"Alright then, by the way, Juliet told me about the confession she said to you the other day." Lauren said as she smirked then Travis smiled.

"Speaking of Juliet, I will be meeting with her afterwards, so that we could spend some time together." Travis said.

"Ugh, I wish I could come with you, but I don't want to be in the middle between you two." Lauren groaned as she rolled her eyes.

"Don't worry, we will find a time for us all to hang out." Travis chuckled.

"I would love that, and I'm sure Juliet does too." Lauren chuckled back as Michael went downstairs.

"I heard a name that I probably haven't met before, do you mind sharing to me Travis?" Michael asked as he walked towards Travis.

"I-It's Juliet, the one I've liked since middle school, but I'm still courting her right now." Travis sighed as he turned to Michael.

"Well I would love to meet my soon to be daughter in law." Michael said then he laughed as Lauren smirked.

"Dad, we haven't started dating yet." Travis nervously said.

"Be a man and make her your girlfriend Travis, life is short." Michael scoffed as he sat down on a chair.

"She said she isn't ready to take a big step forward Dad, and I want to respect her decision." Travis said as Lauren looked down.

"Travis is right, I'm bestfriends with Juliet, Dad." Lauren said.

"Alright, alright, but make sure you will bring her during dinner." Michael said.

"Dad, I don't think she would agree to that. Besides, Lauren introduced Romeo to you and Mom months later while they were together." Travis said as she walked to Michael.

"Don't ever mention your bestfriend's name in this household, Travis." Lauren sighed then Travis nodded.

"Anyways, I just want to know if you are making the right decision Travis, because first of all I am a fortune teller and I can test it on you and Juliet." Michael said as Romeo sighed.

"Fine, but I will depend on her decision, Dad." Travis said.

"Okay, you better be going you don't want Juliet to wait for you." Michael said as he looked at Travis.

"Oh, I will surprise her at her house, Dad." Travis said as Lauren pouted.

"That's so sweet of you, Travy!!" Lauren squealed.

"We don't do surprises in this family, Travis Johnson. That is so last season." Michael said as Travis sighed.

"I just want to make her happy and loved Dad, it's not a big deal." Travis sighed.

"Come on Dad, just let Travis do this by himself." Lauren said as she turned to Michael.

"Fine, but just because your sister says so." Michael said then Travis nodded and went upstairs.
