Julie's POV
I open my eyes to see that the cab has stopped. I was in Florida.

I pay the cab driver and get out. He drives away and I pull out my phone.

It was 2 in the morning. I had messages from everybody.

I sigh and put my phone back in my pocket.

I start my way to my cousins.

Yes my cousin lives here. She's one of my favorite cousins. Her name is Beatrice.

I miss her so much I hope she won't mind if I stay a bit.

I smile to myself as I look for her apartment. Once I find it I go up and knock on the door.

She opens it and her eyes widen at the sight of me. She quickly hugs me.

"I've missed you so much. I thought you had gotten kidnapped. That's what your father said. And now 2 months later here you are"she shrieks.

I chuckle softly and pull away. Her long brown hair was pulled up into a messy bun and her blue eyes were shimmering.

She was in a robe.

"Yeah I missed you to. And actually that's what I want to talk to you about". She nods and I step in.

She drags me into the living room and sits me down.

"Spill"is all she says.

After telling her everything her eyes were widened.

"He did what?"she yelps.

"He kissed me. Even though I had a boyfriend. So now I'm here"I shrug.

"Do you love mason?"

I look down at my lap.

"Y-no I don't"I lie.

"Did you forget that I can tell when your lying. Now tell me the truth"she scolds.

"Yes I do but-" but before I could finish she cuts me off.

"No buts. You love him and that's that". I nod.

"Now go and tell him that you love him".

"No not right now. I just need to get away from everything"I respond truthfully.

"Okay. You are welcome to stay here as long as you want"she smiles.

"Thank you Beatrice".

She nods and gets up.

"Alright its like 2 in the morning let's get some shut eye. You can stay in the guest room for now". I get up and follow her down the hall.

She opens up a door. I walk in and admire the room.

The room wasn't to small nor to big. It was just perfect.

I turn and give Beatrice a hug.

She pulls away and walks down the hall and into her room.

I close the door and jump on the bed. This is what I just wanted.

Some peace and quiet. And to get away from everything that's happened in the last 24 hours.

I pull the covers up to my chin and close my eyes.
