It was Wednesday afternoon and Griffin was in his room, pacing. Everyone was still puzzled by Juju's comments at school, but Griffin refrained from taking any risks. Even though he had difficulty believing Juju, he trusted JJ as they were good friends and JJ would never joke about Harper. Thus, Griffin assumed the situation to be real.

"Zoey, It's time to go" Sarah called from downstairs

Griffin wasted no time in booting out of his room. He ran downstairs, only to greet his mom at the door.

"What are you doing?" Sarah asked as she watched Griffin race downstairs

"Are you taking Zoey to dance," Griffin asked

"I do every day" Sarah pointed out

"Ok that's great because I need to the studio," Griffin said, trying to make the sentence sound as normal as possible

"Why?" Sarah asked

"Um... I just want to support my sister and girlfriend?" Griffin lied

"You sure?" Sarah asked, raising an eyebrow

Griffin nodded slowly. Just then Zoey walked in (thank god)

"K, I'm ready, let's go," Zoey said, before slipping on her shades, and walking towards the door

"Wait, no I'm in charge," Sarah said, stopping Zoey from leaving

"K, let's go," Sarah said, Griffin and Zoey chuckled, before following her out the door

Sulphur Springs Dance Studio

The Campbells arrived at Sulphur Springs Dance Studio, which was as lively and bustling as ever. Griffin had to admit he enjoyed going to the studio - the atmosphere was friendly and inviting. Griffin, Zoey, and Sarah left their car and entered the studio. Zoey was met with many greetings from her dance friends; recognizing her family, several other SSDS dancers waved back to Griffin in a friendly manner.

"I'm gonna go sit down," Sarah said to Griffin, who nodded

Sarah walked away, leaving Griffin, Zoey, and her friends

"So GG, why are you here today?" Matt asked, trying not to sound rude

"Because Harper's in danger," Griffin said

"Danger?" Skylar raised an eyebrow

"There is this girl named Juju who is obsessed with me, and she knows me and Harper our dating, so she's so pissed about it. She's been hurting Harper for like a week now, and her brother told me she was coming to the studio. Juju said something about "making Harper expired" Griffin said

"Juju?" Emery questioned

"Like Juliette Caspian?" Matt said

"Yeah" Griffin answered

"Oh my god, she's so annoying," Zoey said, butting in

"I know right-"

"Kindergarten" Matt interrupted

"Art Class. I was minding my own business, cutting out my heart that the class drew. Juju asked for my scissors, I told her one second. She grabbed the scissors out of my hand, and cut a piece of my hair off" Matt explained

"You poor thing," Zoey said, putting a hand on Matt's shoulder

"Well, we'll keep an eye out, and see if we can spot Juju," Heritage said
