"what are the odds you come on tour with us"? damon asked, semi jokingly.

"you know i can't do that... not with the album just coming out. we're gonna be balls deep in interviews, shows probably too. plus i've got this whole modeling thing next month". juno replied, looking at damon through the reflection of the mirror. the two were in juno's master barth room. juno was using her straightening iron to create a soft blowout, while damon stood behind her.

"i guess so.. who knows, maybe i'll be near new york at the same time as you. i'll check with management". damon said.

"aren't you doing europe first"? juno asked, chuckling at his idiocy.

"not my brightest moment. moving on". damon attempted to shut down the conversation, juno setting her straightener on the counter before turning around, still laughing at damon.

"we should get you home soon, don't you think"? she said. wrapping her arms loosely around his neck.

"i don't want to". damon replied, placing his hands on her hips.

you need to start packing for your tour you've got a lot to do in the next two weeks dames". juno said.

"i know, but i don't want to". damon groaned, placing a short kiss on juno's lips.

"i know you don't, but you have to". juno said. pulling away from damon, and beginning to tidy up her bathroom.

"alright. i'll get going. i'll call you later in the week and we can figure out when i can see you before i leave". damon replied.

"for sure. just let me know". juno said, kissing his cheek as they walked down to the front door, damon grabbing his bag that he brought with.

"see you soon, love". damon smiled.

"bye damon, drive safe". junk replied, giving damon a peck on the lips.

once damon was gone, juno had an hour long breakdown. as much as she was so happy and excited for damon, she couldn't help but worry, and feel upset. she was upset because she'd hardly get to see him for the next few months, and she was worried due to damon's history with infidelity. him and his ex girlfriend, justine, would cheat on each other so much, that they began having an open relationship so that they could be unfaithful without worrying.

juno didn't want this, and was worried about just how easy damon was. she knew that she shouldn't be working herself up, but she couldn't help but be concerned. to try not to worry herself more, she grabbed the phone in her kitchen, and phoned noel. no matter who juno was with, and no matter how much he hated them, noel would always be there for her. and soon enough, after just a couple rings, noel picked up.

"noel? i have a bit of a rant tonight".  juno said, knowing noel was always down for a bit of gossip.

"oh dear. let me grab a drink, one sec". noel replied, placing the phone down onto the couch as he got up to grab a beer. juno giggled at how much of a gossiper noel was. it was as if he turned into a teenage girl as soon as the mention of gossip.

"okay. i'm back. spill". noel said shortly after.

"well, this is kind of a long one. you know how you uh.. totally caught me and damon snogging? well he asked me to be his girlfriend, which i obviously accepted", juno started.

"congratulations juno! i hate that git, but if he makes you happy, then so be it". noel said.

"thanks noel, anyways, i'm calling because fucking blur is doing a nine month long world fucking tour, and i'm only gonna be able to see him once every month. that's not what i'm worried about though. i cant help but worry about his past with infidelity"... juno ranted, chewing on the skin around her nails as a habit.
