Julie and the Phantoms (Juke, Willex, Relynn)

The Crush

Chapter two! Enjoy!

Luke POV

"You so like her," Alex said.

"Who?" I asked strumming my guitar.

"Brittany Spears," Alex mutters.

"The was me in the 90's before I came into the 21st century!" I say sitting up, not strumming any more. "I'm 99% over her!"

"I was being sarcastic you doofus!" Alex exclaimed.

"He was talking about Julie," Reggie said in a matter of fact tone.

"I don't like her!" I say in a too high pitched voice.

"Mmhm," Reggie rolled his eyes.

"Why aren't we talking about Reggie's dating life?" I say arching an eyebrow. "We need to get him a date with Mary-"

"DON'T JINX IT!" he screamed, covering his ears.

"But it would be so cute if you two got together!" Alex joins in.

"It would be impossible!" Reggie uncovered his ears. "She wouldn't be able to see me. How would she see me if I was even able to get a date with her."

"Your right," Alex mumbled.

"I didn't think of that," I mumbled too.

"Daaaaamn," a voice said from the studio doors."Reggie thought of something you guys didn't? You know people used to think Einstein was stupid because he didn't know how to put his thoughts into words cause his thoughts were too advanced for a little kid. Maybe we've been getting Reggie wrong this whole time. Also, I CAN STILL SEE YOU!"

"SHE CAN SEE US!!" I screamed as Flynn got a book from the table staring at us, wide eyed.

"How's that possible?" Alex mumbled. "And what do you mean you can still see us?"

"Honestly?" she shrugged. "I've been able to see you all since I've gotten here. I'm surprised you haven't noticed. When Alex popped up into the loft I didn't ask Julie why she was looking up at nothing. It might have something to do with what happened after the Orpheum when you guys touched Julie. Today has been the first time I've been around you since then, and I was able to see you. I thought I was just imagining, I have a very vivid imagination. Anyways, I have to get back to Julie and tell her."

She walked out, still staring at us, wide eyed, and we all stared back until she walked out. Then she poked her head back in, and left, but we still stared at the door.

"HOW CAN SHE BE SO CALM?" Alex screamed.

"Hey, hey, hey," I walk up to him as if coaxing a small scared animal with my hands up. "At least we can still use our ghostly powers right?"

He nodded, slowly, "But we don't know how to disappear and reappear on demand. It can be risky learning how, cause people might think we're here visiting from Sweden."

"The good news, though," Reggie stood up, eyebrows arched and a smile. "Is that I can go on a date!"

"Whoo!" I cheered. "Now we can set you up! We have to ask Julie for help though, Mary's is like her best friend, she can help us!"

Reggie then looked miserable, "That's exactly why I didn't want to ask her! So if she rejects me, or if we date and we break up, I don't want Julie to then dread being around her and me at the same time because she'd be angry with me-"

"Reggie!" I shouted. "Reg, buddy, your turning into Alex. Okay? Your pacing and thinking ahead and panicking. Do you want to ask Julie's permission to date Mary?"
