The spring air was as fresh as ever, blowing pollen all over the surrounding area, creating the perfect temperature to explore nature, and Juliet was about to do just that. Putting her shoes on and grabbing a brown basket, she opened the door, greeting the bright sun and welcoming sky. She didn't even bother grabbing any weapons, she didn't have to, in the world she was in right now, there was no need for any of that.

She didn't know where she was exactly, or where she just came from, but it felt familiar and safe nonetheless. Examining the area that surrounded her, she saw nothing but green hills and flowers. Juliet looked down at the basket then back at the variety of flowers, she figured that's what the basket was meant for, and she had absolutely no problem stuffing the basket full of pretty little flowers.

Marching up the hill, gravity tried to push her down but of course she prevailed, as soon as she picked a spot that felt right to her, she brought herself down to be seated on the prickly green grass. Scanning over the variety of flowers, she picked all kinds, the softest pink, the deepest blues and the brightest yellows, placing them gently in the basket, watching how they piled up over time. Some small, some tall, and some tiny enough to be placed in her hair later.

"Juliet!" the girl heard, causing her head to snap up in confusion, but as she looked around, she saw no one, the noise too faint anyways, it just must've been the wind she thought, until she heard it again. "Juliet!" A male voice called urgently, sounding too real now, she got up on her legs, scanning over across the field, finally she saw a figure from far away, she couldn't make who it was though. All she knew was that they sounded male, and looked tall. "Charlie?" She asked herself with a small smile, pleased to see her friend.

She began to walk down the hill, in a calm manner, but as she got closer she abruptly stopped, and so did the man. "Juliet." This time it wasn't as loud, and even with the distance between them, she still heard it as clear as day. She realized she was mistaken. "Mckay!?" She shouted loudly, her mouth opened with a shocked smile, instantly instead of walking she began running towards him, and he to her.

They grew closer and closer, and once they met in the middle, her arms wrapped around his neck, his arm around her waist picking her up a few inches off the ground. "Mckay." she repeated out of breath, in a bit of a broken voice, as if she was crying, once he heard sniffling, he knew that was clearly the case. "I know, I know." he told her, his eyes tearing up, holding onto her as tight as possible, his hands running through her dark brown hair.

"I'm right here it's okay, it's gonna be okay." he repeated under his breath kissing the top of her head. "I missed you." she finally answered, her small face nuzzling into his neck, it fit so perfectly, "I missed you too" Tom replied with a small laugh of relief. "I want to see your face." Juliet stated slightly pushing him away, the girl gently cupping his face in her soft hands, it looked just like she remembered, so perfect, so beautiful. Her fingers glazing over his nose, mouth and eye lids.
