Juliet's POV:

"Guys wait hold on!" Nova called after us since she was a few steps behind us as we ran away from the circle. "I don't do running, the only physical activity do is walk to the bathroom"

"Come on!" James urged as he pulled her by her arm. I tried to keep up with Liam and James, but gosh they could run. Charlie was still no where around and I was wondering where he was, somewhat wishing he was running along with us.

I quickly shook that thought from my mind, he was probably off with his girlfriend. His girlfriend Juliet he has a girlfriend. Not that this information concerns me at all.

Anyways, we quickly turned a corner, losing the jocks. I panted with my hand on my knees, reminiscing on my near death experience. I just jumped someone oh my crackers.

James let out a small giggle, followed by a snort from Liam. Me and Nova turned to look at them and followed in their laughter.

"Oh man did you see em'?! Boy you beat them up good" James excitedly let out. He put his hands on his waist and snorted. "Did you see their faces when Juliet jumped on one of them, that was hilarious" I blushed at his remark as he continued to ramble. Our joy was short lived, because a shadow was cast above us. I looked up to see three fuming jocks.

"Hehe man they're stupid"

"Uh James"

"Nova oh man when you hit that guy in the head. Ha! He probably couldn't take you anyways!" I gulped, looking up at the guys ."They're behind me aren't they?"

Me and Nova nodded, while Liam who was even with the jocks if not taller, glared at them. James nodded knowingly and flipped around to face them.

"Hey guys!" he nervously chuckled "What I said earlier, I was joking! Come on, aren't I a hoot?" The intimidating basketball players inched above him.

"Run" he choked out,

"Oh man"

"I think we lost them" Liam said as he sat next Nova across the booth from me and James. I watched Nova as she squirmed uncomfortably next to him. We were at some type of bar.

"Yeah we better have, or they were gonna have a taste of this" James said holding up his fist. A waitress came up to us with bright smile, not bothering to hide the fact she as eyeballing Liam and James.

"What can I get y'all" she said, it seemed as if she was just asking the guys

"I'll have a chocolate milkshake with extra whipped cream" Nova spoke up, Liam looked back at her "What? I like milkshakes" Liam snorted.

"So do I" he said. Nova nodded but then thought about it and hit him "Pervert"

I didn't get what was so bad about him liking milkshakes.
