it was now the next day, and juno was practically dragging noel out of bed. eventually, with bribery of the mcdonald's drive thru, juno managed to get him out of bed. she remembered she needed to call damon to get his address. dialing his number, which was now memorized, the phone rung a few times.

"hello"? damon asked.

"morning damon, i'm calling regarding the address i was promised". juno chirped, applying a small amount of makeup while having the phone jammed between her head and shoulder.

"ah yes good morning juno. you know what, just meet me out front near the london eye. call me when you arrive, they have a pay phone just out front and i'll come meet you". damon replied, trying to plan a cute london day for him and juno.

"no need for the pay phone. i bought a cell phone the other day. neat, huh"? juno said, bragging about her most recent purchase, her brand new nokia 232 .

"ah very fancy indeed. well, in that case, call me around 10 minutes before you arrive and i'll meet you". damon replied.

"sure thing love. see you then"! juno replied, hanging up the phone to go get out the door.

juno was now going to talk with noel about spending the night in london.

"so.. i got a call from a friend in london last night, and they asked me if i could come visit on my way up to manchester. is it okay with you if i spend the night there and then meet you up tomorrow morning"? juno asked, trying not to reveal who she was seeing.

"yeah no worries. tell damon i say hi". noel smirked, walking through the door past juno, heading out to the car.

juno stood there for a second, jaw dropped, before collecting herself and following noel out to his car. juno decided not to bring up what had just happened, and instead turned on her walkman, and put on her headphones, which were now blasting 'for whom the bell tolls', by metallica.

the ride up to london was pretty quiet, with a few small conversations here and there. soon enough, noel was parked out front of the london eye.

"thank you for coming over, and the ride. i'll see  you tomorrow". juno grinned, leaning over the center console to wrap her arms around noel.

"good to see you juno. see ya". noel replied, patting juno's back before pulling away.

juno waved at noel as she walked off, looking for damon. she sat at a bench with her side bag and book. damon knew to meet her somewhere around there. after about 10 minutes, juno felt a presence sit down at the bench beside her. she put her book down, and looked over to see damon, who was pretending that he was just sitting there, looking off into the distance.

"hey you"! juno smiled, pulling damon in for a hug.

"hello hello. how are ya". damon replied, stroking jumps hair as he hugged her.

"feeling lovely. shall we? i'm nervous to meet the guys", juno admitted. she was mostly nervous to meet alex. him and damon were the most infatuated with the whole blur and oasis feud, and she knew he didn't like her. graham and dave seemed chill though.

"don't be, they'll love you. yeah let's go, i figured we could head out to a pub afterwards". damon replied, standing up and motioning for juno to follow him.

"that sounds great damon. i'm seriously so scared to meet alex. i know he doesn't like me". juno groaned, herring up and following damon.

"well he's definitely not your biggest fan, but he will be. give it 5 minutes. graham and dave are happy to meet you though". damon replied as the two started walking over to damon's flat, which was just minutes away.

"me too. they seem like nice guys. in fact, it was really only alex and you that i didn't like". juno admitted, damon shoving her shoulder lightly, chuckling.

"well you certainly don't hate me now, do you"? damon smirked smugly.

"hmmmm i mean you're pretty annoying.. insufferable even". juno teased, earning a light smack on the back of her head from damon.

damon chuckled as the two approached the apartment building rhat damon lived in. juno's nerves were through the roof. she really wanted to make a good impression on the guys. juno followed damon through the building and into the elevator. damon could tell juno was anxious, as she started to pick at the skin around her nails. damon noticed this and grabbed one of her hands away from the other one, intertwining it with his.

once the elevator came to a stop and the doors slid open, juno was a nervous wreck. her fingers still intertwined with damon's as they walked to damon's flat, damon only letting go as he opened the door to the flat.

when juno walked in, she was met with alex sitting on the couch, beer in hand, and graham in the kitchen, appearing to be tidying. both of their heads swung up to see juno walking into their flat. the flat was surprisingly not an absolute disaster. damon did warn them that she was coming, so neither of them were surprised. graham immediately dropped what he was doing to come meet juno.

"juniper! pleasure to meet you". graham smiled, putting his hand out for her to shake.

"the pleasure is mine". juno replied, beaming as she shook his hand.

" 'ello juniper". alex smirked from the couch, cigarette in hand.

"hi alex". juno smiled. she wasn't a huge fan of alex. he's said some pretty creepy stuff about juno in the past in interviews.

"alright juno, let me show you to your room". damon said, motioning for juno to follow him.

damon lead juno into a smaller bedroom, with a queen sized bed with a burgundy duvet, an acoustic guitar sat in the corner.

"you'll be staying in my room, i'll take the couch". damon said, placing juno's bag onto the bed.

"nonsense. either i'll take the couch or we can just sleep together". juno replied, not seeing the reason why damon would need to sleep on the couch.

"oh i get to sleep with you now? what a dream". damon batted his eyelashes jokingly.

"piss off damon". juno replied, smacking him in the head with a pillow.
