.Nate's Pov.

-Friday-


Juliet and I jumped into my white Jeep. But she had to jump up to get in, and it was so cute. I wish she knew how much she meant to me, she was my everything. Every day. "What are you looking at me for? Let's go burn rubber!" I smiled taking my eyes off of her and then put the stick-shift into reverse. When we got onto the highway, I put down the windows to get a nice summer breeze because it was so damn hot. She had her Starbucks's& I got a strawberry Gatorade from the 7/11 gas station. We listened to Juliet's Spotify(music) so long that it felt like it'd been and hour, but it was only 4:00 when we left. And now it was 4:40. When we (finally) made it to the first star on the map. It was a small roller skating rink on the corner of Avenue Street. We looked at each other and gave confused looks. Juliet jumped out of the car and slid her sunglasses onto the top of of her head with the sun shining on her. I never saw her looking so beautiful. I jumped out and then locked the car walking in opening the door for Juliet. When we both got inside, there were only 10-16 people skating. So we went to the front desk and tried to ask if they knew anything. "Hey, I have a letter with a star on this place, could you help us please?" The man gave Juliet a big smile looking at her chest and then I came in. "Hey. Eyes up. Look, we need help finding something here." The man then gave Juliet and I a tight-fisted stare and gave us a key. "Down the hall to the right. Make it quick." Juliet looked and me and I gave her a soft smile, I told her I'd meet up with her in a min. When she said "ok" and walked off, I looked at the man and said "fuck off." I then walked off and caught up with Juliet. She had such a big smile on her face, it was the happiest she's ever been. When we got to the door, she unlocked it and we found a box with purple ribbon tied around it. I picked it up and Juliet and I walked back to the car. "Wanna go to Subway and open it?" She nodded and when we got to Subway, we both got our orders and sat at a table. I gave her the box, and she eagerly opened it with joy. She pulled out a cassette tap and gave a confused look. "How will we ever be able to play this?" I laughed "We'll go to the library." She laughed eating her sandwich.

An hour later..

We got to the library at 5:45 and walked through the huge doors. I asked a lady if she would help us play this cassette tape, she smiled and nodded. She guided us to a room and set up the machine. Juliet and I sat on two chairs next to each other. When the tape started playing, I saw Juliet at age 1, and her mother. Juliet was put down in her crib sleeping, and then her mother started going to her room. When Juliet's mother sat down in her husband's office, she started crying and looking at the camera.

Juliet then leaned on my shoulder and started tearing up, so I put my arm around her and kissed her head. Her mother told us that whoever was watching this cassette tape, wanted Juliet know that she loved her& her father, and that the other marks on the map had more cassette tapes. I didn't understand why her mother was crying, but I noticed how Juliet had the same eyes as her mothers, they were beautiful and dark brown. The cassette tape then ended and Juliet was asleep. I took the tape out and carried her in my arms to my car. I set her down in the back seats and put my red faded blanked over her. I hoped she would be alright after everything that happened in that tape. It was now 8:58 and I drove home to her house. When I parked in my driveway, I carried Juliet once again to her front door. I kept thinking "She was so light and beautiful sleeping." I thought that was weird thinking about that, so I rang the doorbell and then saw her fathers slimy, ugly face giving me the death stare. "Where did you go without telling me?! YOU COULD'VE KILLER HER!" Juliet then woke up, surprised that she was in my arms. She then smiled at me and slowly stood up. Her father grabbed her arm and pulled her inside. Juliet then looked at me"Thanks Nate" I gave her a soft smile as she shut the door.

WHAT A NIGHT!
