Juliet's POV

I hung up the dream catcher in my room among the others, about 20. Over the past month I tried to change myself as much as possible. I wanted a fresh start but I can't get that until high school is over, thank god I only have one year left. I got down off of the stool and admired my room. One of my walls was nothing but large dream catchers. The other wall was pictures, I've been taking a lot more and so has Danny. Besides thats his job now, Danny became a photographer and he'll be traveling in Europe for about two months taking pictures starting tomorrow. A lot of the pictures on the wall were one's from his trip to Japan, otherwise they were just pictures from when I was little. I wanted to fill the wall so I've been carrying a camera everywhere. My floor was a dark brown wooden floor, the paint on the walls was a light lavender. Since I just redid it yesterday my room still smelt like fresh paint. I barely had lights in my room, instead when I wanted to sit in here, I just lit a bunch of candles. I didn't have much else, I tried to keep the room sort of empty since I'd be leaving it. I didn't want things I couldn't put in a box and on a plane. My room was dimly lit with a few flames here and there. I had music playing in the background, New Found Glory.

I dragged the stool back into the hall closet where it was kept. I looked out the window quickly to see the mail truck. Once the stood was away I left down the driveway to get the letters and new paper that clustered in our mailbox. When I was back inside I sat on my bed. I sifted through the mail and tossed the ones for Danny aside. I never got any mail really, only bills. Then I got to the last letter and sighed. I ripped it open and took out the thin piece of paper.

Dear Juliet

So I don't really know where to start with this considering I've never really written a letter before, Ashton is helping me. I know this is really cheesy, but being cheesy is my thing, right? I just want to check up on you considering since you don't answer my calls or texts, maybe you'll answer a letter? I don't know, this is probably stupid and I know when you get this and read it you'll just hate me even more for making this harder. That's the thing though, this isn't going to be easy. I love you, I love you so so much and I will never let you go.
Were in Florida right now, theres a month left in this tour then I get to come home. I miss everything, I miss my house, I miss my bed, I miss the beaches there, I miss people from school, I miss everything from that stupid suburbian town, most importantly I miss you. I miss us.
Also once we get home, we're finally recoding our first full album! Yay! I can't wait to get back in the studio and get rid of all this junk stuck in my mind.
You should be getting a package maybe today, maybe tomorrow, but it has some stuff in that I collected for you from our journey in the states this whole tour. I was going to give everything to you for Christmas but obviously that didn't work out so well... Anyway, I'm going to go now we have to go on stage in about twenty minutes so I'm sorry if this sounds rushed.

Always hoping for a reply,
I love you,
Luke.

Ps. Don't throw away the envelope make sure to check inside!

Pps. I'm sorry...

I smiled and put the letter down. I emptied the envelope and a little charm fell out. It was a tiny feather charm. I examined it for a bit. I examined it and saw little wording.

That was today's date? I was a bit confused but I was still happy with it. I clipped it on to the top of my dream catcher necklace. I then took the letter and put it in a small box that looked like a book but it was hollowed out. Luke's right, none of this is going to be easy.
