Finn's POV
Runaways, we're the long lost children
Running to the edge of the world
Everybody wants to throw us away
Broken boy meets broken girl
You said you tried it all before
And it only makes it worse
Oh but this time, maybe this time
Two wrongs make it right
We'll safety pin, the pieces of our broken hearts back together

I arrived in New York, feeling absolutely amazing. I was finally seeing Julie again.

That's when I realized I had no idea where she lived.

Then a lucky fan walked up to me.

"Jack!" She screamed.

"Um, I'm Finn, but hi." I greeted, smiling.

She blushed. "Sorry. I just saw the back of your head and assumed you were Jack. Anyways, could I get a picture?"

"Sure." I replied, taking her phone to take a selfie. "Hey, could I ask you a quick question?"

"Yeah?" She replied, looking at me weirdly.

"Do you have any idea where Julia Embrant, aka GemJulie on YouTube lives?' I asked her.

"Your ex girlfriend? Can't you just track her on Find My Friends or something?" The girl replied sassily.

I sighed realizing how stupid that question was. "Yeah, I could. Thanks."

She walked away without a word.

Looking down at my phone, I saw that Julie was only 20 minutes away. "Perfect.8" I muttered to myself.

*time skip of taxi riding*

I knocked on the door of Julie's apartment. A woman who looked a lot like Julie opened the door. "Who are you?" She grumbled.

"I'm a.....friend.....of Julie's." I told her, hoping she didn't know who I was.

"What's her middle name?" The woman asked.

Is that even a question. I thought. "Marilynn. With two N's." I stated.

"Fine. Let me get her." The woman said before shutting the door in my face.

"Julietta!" I heard her call.

"What, Mom!" Julie's voice called back.

"There's someone here to see you, come down and let them in!" Julie's mom yelled.

Then the door opened to reveal the beautiful being that is Julietta Marilynn Embrant.

"Finnegan." She greeted coldly.

"Julietta!" I smiled widely.

"Please, come in." She said, overly polite.

"It's great to meet you, Finnegan." Julia's mom greeted.

"Not now, Mom." Julie snapped.

She dragged me upstairs and into her bedroom, shutting and locking the door.

"What are you doing here?" She nearly screamed at me.

"I just wanted to say hi." I said defensively.

"Fine. Hi. Now leave." She demanded, pointing at the door.

"No, there's also something I need to tell you about Michael."

Julie's face suddenly went blank. "What?" She asked quietly.

"You might want to sit down." I told her, grabbing her hand and setting her down on the edge of her bed. She didn't protest. She remained completely silent and still.

"Michael's been cheating on you." I told her softly.

She didn't react. She said nothing for a while. "With whom?" She finally whispered, barely audible.

I waited a while before telling her. "Quinn."

Julie was quick to react this time. She didn't look at me, but it sounded like she was going between laughing and crying.

"Of course he's cheating on me with Quinn. Who hasn't cheated on me with Quinn? Stop lying to me, Finn." She yelled.

I sighed. "Then explain this photo."

I showed her a picture from Quinn's Twitter. It showed Michael and her in her apartment. Michael was kissing her cheek. The caption read, "Just Keeping Michael Company for Julie."

I heard Julie crying softly. "Photoshop?" She whispered hopefully. I shook my head.

She put her head in her hands. I saw her body shaking from the sobs. I wrapped my arms around her.

"He wouldn't, Finn." He argued.

I sighed. "Boys are horrible creatures. They just move on so quickly. Isn't it heartbreaking?" I asked her.

"You speak as if you aren't one yourself." She noted.

"I do. That's because I'm not a boy. I'm a man, Julia. I realize now that I made a mistake in leaving you. No one could ever replace you. I hope Michael realizes that for himself." I pulled her closer to me.

"Even if he does, I'm not taking him back, Finn." She told me.

"Why not, Julie?" I asked her, resting her head on my shoulder.

"I might want to take you back."
