It was currently 11am on a Saturday AKA a time for rest and relaxation but Bobby quickly learnt that having a roommate like Juno, there was so time for rest or relaxation.
He had been given a day off from band practice as the weather wasn't so nice to be carrying guitars, amps or drum sets in. So here he was, lying down on the sofa watching reruns of Friends.
The apartment had been awfully quiet, maybe too quiet but at the time, he didn't complain. That was until a loud bang was heard from Juno's bedroom.
Bobby immediately dived up from the sofa and rushed into her room, only to find her sat on the floor, holding up a large piece of metal. He glanced over at her collapsed bed and let out a frustrated sigh.
"Do I even want to know?" He sarcastically asked her, watching as she got up.
"Would you believe me if I said gymnastics?" She smiled, unsure of her answer.
"A trip to IKEA it is." Bobby nodded to himself, earning a weird look.
Juno scrunched up her face in confusion. "Ika what now?" She asked him.
"IKEA." He repeated once again. "The place that has everything you'll ever need."
"Do they have cats?"
"I meant decorations and furniture."

"Oh, shit. You were not kidding." Juno's eyes widened at the shop in front of her. She was completely starstruck.
"Told you." Bobby replied smugly, leading the way to all the bed furniture.
She rolled her eyes playfully, "I still see no cats though."
"Is this your way of telling me you want to get a cat?" Bobby questioned, giving her a knowing look.
"Are you agreeing?" Juno's voice grew softer, in a way to try and persuade him.
He pretended to think about it for a second before replying, "maybe for Christmas."
"Or my birthday, y'know, since it's closer." She told him with a wide smile.
Bobby froze. He started to feel guilty because he did not know when her birthday was. They had only been roommates for about a month but shouldn't he know that by now? He prayed that she didn't know his either.
Juno seemed to notice his thoughts taking over and immediately decided to put him at ease. "My birthday is June 14th."
After shopping in IKEA and getting a brand new bed, the pair exited the store and began walking home after Bobby insisted he carried the bag.
He let out a laugh which made her slightly confused. "Sorry, it's just that your name is Juno and your birthday is in June." He said, hoping she'd find the joke funny.
