*~~Zack's P.O.V.~~*

The name's Zachary Graves, at the moment I am posing for an emo magazine. Yeah yeah, I don't care crap what you think, so what I'm an emo magazine model? To be honest with you, I really hate this job, but I need the money. My parents died when I was in 8th grade, so when I was 13-years-old. I don't need your pity because no one's life is perfect, there's probably others out there with a life worse than mine.

"Come on, give me a big smile," the camera man asked. My manager, Lisa Gomez (age 29), tensed and called it a wrap. She knows that I don't smile, haven't since my parents died. Sounds impossible doesn't it, but it's actually really easy. Anyway I'm glad that I'm done for the day, after all my second year of college starts tomorrow. At the age of twenty, I have a job, why would I need to go to college, right? I always thought school was important as I missed most of it because of my job. So college is basically my missed years of education for me, just without the physical education part. I have a mini gym in my house for that.

As I walk towards my car, Lisa comes rushing over to me and apologizes, I swear this woman worries too much but I still care for her, she's like another older sister. "No Lisa it's fine. You're the one who saved my butt by calling it a wrap." I say hoping she wouldn't worry too much about it. "Well ok, take care of yourself and good luck tomorrow," she said. I murmur my thanks and drive away.

Music, I need my music, I don't know how anyone lives without it. I turn up my car speakers and breath a sigh of relief. So here I am, in my car, wondering what to do for the rest of the day. Maybe work out a bit, go for another jog, eat, read a book, then head to sleep...gosh I have no life, whatever. Then all of a sudden my phone starts ringing, caller ID says it's my older sister, Carolyn.

"Hello sis."

"Zacky! How are you? I miss you so much, why don't you ever visit me anymore?"

Finally home! I park my car and reply, "I've been busy sorry, Carolyn. How are you and you're husband doing?"

"Busy wizzy, we are family, don't forget us! Maybe I should visit you....Anyway Blazey and I are doing great. But I called not to scold you but to tell you very important news."

I toss my keys on the kitchen counter, a really bad habit of mine, and search through the fridge for food. "Yeah? Well spill the news, I am free for the rest of the day."

"Well Zachary...um..."

Oh god she called me by my full name, that's never good. "Go on sis, I'm listening."

She sighed and I heard Blaze in the background encouraging her, "Tell him, he'll be ok."

Carolyn continued, "Well you see Zacky, I'm pregnant two months, you're going to be an uncle!"

Say what?!

*~~Juliet's P.O.V.~~*

"I brought the last box! God it's nice moving but not the whole package that comes along! You know what I mean Juliet?" Maddison complains.

I laugh, "Yeah with all the packing, then driving, then unpacking and placing things where they belong."

"Well whatever, I'm just glad that we are now roommates, not that we weren't before, but now it's just the two of us!" she says then starts dancing.

I love my best friend, Maddison Reed, also known as Maddie or Mads. I'm Juliet Grayson Annabel. Oh my god, Annabel! What kind of stupid last name is that! It should be a first name, well guess what I l~o~v~e~ it~! I am 19-years-old, Maddie is 20, since her birthday already passed. We just moved to this neighborhood and are going to our second year of college. Thanks to our parents, we have our own house together!
