Mason
Oh my beautiful Juliet..
You don't know how much I'm hurting not being able to call you mine...

I don't give up and I'm not going to!
I'm going to get my girl back.
I know I am....

Juliet : I'm going for a drink.
Carter : Go ahead!

Bar

Omar : Hey Juliet!
Juliet : Oh hey Omar. How are you?
Omar : Eh the usual.
Juliet : That's good.
Omar : Anyway! How's the engagement?
Juliet : Good.
Omar : What about Mason?
Juliet : Omar please...
Omar : I'm telling you because I can see you love him. Don't waste your chance.
Juliet : ...
Omar : I know you don't want to hurt Carter but you're going to hurt him anyway. A loveless marriage won't make either of you happy.

Ava : Carter, are you sure about marrying her?
Carter : Yes
Ava : I just- j don't think she feels the same. My gut feeling says she's into Mason.
Carter : ...
Ava : What they had was deep.
Carter : Even if she's still into him, I'll marry her.
Ava : Carter, I was willing to marry him knowing he didn't love me. I know I said I'd be happy anyway but it really doesn't make you happy. The idea of him being with someone else killed me inside.
Carter : Mason cheated on you with several. Not just with Juliet.
Ava : Still!
Carter : That fear won't exist in my relationship. Juliet would only cheat on me with Mason. We go back to New York tomorrow. They won't see each other anymore.
Ava : Her heart will stay here in Los Angeles. You know that right? You know she's not fully yours.
Carter : I'm willing to try. I know she can fall for me one day.
Ava : I had hope Mason would fall for me again but I was wrong. I'm sorry brother but don't marry her if she doesn't love you.
Carter : ....

Carter
I love Juliet. I know she can fall for me. She makes me happy anyway. I know this can workout.

Eliza : You look sad.
Juliet : I go back to New York tomorrow.
Eliza : Juliet, you don't have to lie to me. I've never once judged you. I stood by you since day one. Do you trust me?
Juliet : Of course I do Eliza.
Eliza : Then be honest. You don't love him do you?
Juliet : ....
Eliza : You're still into Mason.
Juliet : Unfortunately....
Eliza : Then why are you going forward with the wedding?
Juliet : Carter is happy. I gave him my word. I don't want to hurt him.
Eliza : You're hurting yourself...
Juliet : Maybe this is my punishment for getting in the middle of a relationship.
Eliza : I don't know if I agree with that. You love Mason and he loves you. He's still single. You have the power to be with him. Then be with him!
Juliet : Trust me, I can't. I don't have the heart to cancel on Carter. I'm not going to.
Eliza : ....
Juliet : Please don't try to convince me. It's not going to work.
Eliza : I just want you to be happy.
Juliet : Thank you....

Omar : She's leaving.
Mason : What?
Omar : They go back to NY tomorrow.
Mason : No....
Omar : I don't know bro but I think you lost her. I talked to her for a bit but I don't think I convinced her to take you back.
Mason : This is my punishment for the amount of times I cheated on Ava.
Omar : Karma?
Mason : I'm dying inside bro. The woman I love isn't mine. She's going to marry someone else. You don't understand because you don't know what love is.
Omar : And I don't want to know.

Hallway

Mason : Juliet!!!

Juliet
I stopped and turned around once I heard my name.

Mason : Leaving?
Juliet : Yeah....
Mason : To New York?
Juliet : ....
Mason : Without saying goodbye?
Juliet : I can't....

Juliet
Without saying anything, he pulled me into a hug. I hugged him back and laid my head on his shoulder.

This is it.
It's a goodbye.....

Mason : Stay....
Juliet : I can't....
Mason : Juliet, I love you. I love you so much and I know you love me too.
Juliet : Yes...
Mason : Then?
Juliet : I said yes to Carter. I can't go back on my word.
Mason : Not even for me?
Juliet : No.....
Mason : Juliet-
Juliet : I'm sorry....
Mason : Can you at least......stay the night with me? Let me show you how much I love you one last time. Don't you think we deserve it? Don't we deserve a proper goodbye?
Juliet : ......One last time.
Mason : Mine?
Juliet : I'll see you there....

Alicia : Carter....
Carter : Hm?
Alicia : I heard something....
Carter : What?
Alicia : Mason and Juliet....
Carter : What about them?
Alicia : They're going to spend the night.
Ava : What did I tell you?
Carter : ......Where are they?
Alicia : They're still here but they're about to leave.
Carter : Alright....

Juliet : Eliza.
Eliza : Yes?
Juliet : I'm leaving....
Eliza : Already?
Juliet : I'm going to miss you.
Eliza : I'm going to miss you too!

Juliet
Eliza pulled me into a big hug. I'm very grateful to have her as a friend. She helped me so much.

Eliza : Please don't forget about me.
Juliet : I would never!
Eliza : Are you saying goodbye to Mason?
Juliet : The proper way.
Eliza : What?
Juliet : I'm going with him....
Eliza : Oh I see! Have fun! But be careful Juliet...
Juliet : I will.
Eliza : How are you going to do it? You came with Carter.
Juliet : I'll take a taxi. I'll leave when he's distracted.
Eliza : Mason is walking out as we speak.
Juliet : Okay....

Juliet
The taxi took about twenty minutes to get here. Luckily Carter was busy talking to his sisters. He didn't notice I left. Eliza helped me out too.

Carter : I'm leaving.
Ava : You leave tomorrow right?
Carter : Yes
Alicia : We'll see you at the airport.
Carter : Alright.

Mason's House
-doorbell-

Mason : -opens door- You came!
Juliet : -smile-

Juliet
I didn't waste time. I walked in and wrapped my arms around his neck smashing my lips on his.

He closed the door behind me and picked me up. My legs automatically wrapped around him.

He took us all the way upstairs into his bedroom without breaking our kiss.

He laid me down on the bed positioning himself on top.

One by one our clothes fell to the floor.

O U T S I D E

Carter
I didn't need to follow them because I knew they'd be here. I don't need to go In because I know what's going on.

It'll be their last time though.

Juliet and I go back to New York tomorrow. In a few months we'll be married. I'll make her fidget about Mason. She won't even remember him.

To be continued......
