3. New Friends

3rd Person POV

Once the ceremony finished Juliet heads back to the dormitories and unpacks her things. 

A few sets of school uniforms, and a few of her favorite outfits in her closet, and places different styles of shoes against the wall. Once that was done Juliet looked around her room and felt a little sad since she didn't have anything to put up on her walls. 

" Okay, now what?" Juliet asked herself as she listened to the hallway of her future classmates and decided to go say hello. 

Juliet grabs her dorm key, locks the door, and starts walking down the hallway seeing her classmates unpacking their suitcases. 

She soon overhears someone being such a bully of his roommate looking like a stiff, but couldn't see who he was. Juliet tries to get through the hall, but can't since all the boys are passing Juliet by the second. Once Juliet got through a little further down the hall she couldn't find the guy who was being mean. 

Juliet leans against a door for a moment as she feels a little down since she doesn't know anyone here until it hits her. The door opens to make Juliet fall backward and hit the back of her head on the floor. 

"Whoa! Ow!" Juliet rubs her head as she then sees a bunch of boys hovering over her. 

" Are you alright?" Todd asks. 

" Yeah, I'm fine." Juliet adjusts herself as she tries to get up on her own. 

" Here let me help you." Meeks held out his hand as well as Knox did and helped Juliet up off the floor. 

" Thank you. Sorry, I was bored and I didn't think when I leaned against the door, and someone opened the door." Juliet dusts herself off as she looks at all the of the boys in the room and sees a familiar face. "You." 

" You." Neil smiled as he found her again.

" Thank you again for helping me with my necklace. um.." 

" Oh Neil, Neil Perry." Neil held out his hand and shook Juliet's hand.

" Nice to meet you, Neil." Juilet smiled as she felt a spark when they shook hands. 

" Wait, Neil, this is the angel you were talking about?" Knox said without thinking making Neil blush like crazy Juliet blushes as she curls her lips for a moment and Neil's friends snicker. 

" Thanks Knox." Neil says annoyingly. 

Juliet looks over to his friends as they introduce themselves.

" Knox Overstreet." Knox held out his hand for Juliet's as she shook his back. 

" Nice to meet you." 

" Steven Meeks. You can call me Meeks." 

" Will do." Juliet said as she could see these guys were pretty cool. 

" Charlie Dalton." Charlie kisses the top of Juliet's hand but feels annoyed with him as she rolls her eyes away. 

" Pleasure." Juliet said annoyingly. 

" And this is my roommate Todd Anderson." Neil introduces to Juliet. 

" It's nice to meet you, Todd. I'm Juliet by the way." 

" Juliet. That's a pretty name." Todd said sweetly. 

" Thank you." Juliet blushes a little but snaps out of it since she doesn't want to embarrass herself more. " So what were you guys talking about before I fell into the room?" 

" Talking about the four pillars." Meeks said as he sat back down. 

" And what are they, gentlemen?" Neil asked everyone. 

" Travisty, horror, decadence, excrement." They all say together as Juliet is surprised to hear what they think. 

" Is this place really that bad?" 

" Welcome to Hell-ton." Meeks said as Juliet feels more nervous now. 

" Don't worry so much, we're having a study group tonight. Are you having any trouble with any subjects we've been assigned to?"  Neil asked Juliet as she thought about her classes. 

" Well, I'm alright in chemistry. I could use some help on that, but I'm great at math. Latin...never taken it before. And of course, since my father is an English teacher, easy for me." 

" Great. Meeks can help you in Latin, I know chemistry very well, and could you help us with Trig?" Neil asked Juliet nicely and she sure couldn't say no to him. 

" Sure. Sounds like a plan." Juliet heard a knock at the door to see Mr. Perry coming inside the room. 

" Father I thought you'd gone." Neil was surprised to see his father still on campus. 

" Mr. Perry." They say together.

" Keep your sets, fellas." Mr. Perry said to the boys then noticed Juliet standing next to Meeks. " You must be Ms. Keating." 

" Yes, sir. You can call me Juliet." Held out her hand as Mr. Perry shook her hand. 

" It's a pleasure to meet you, young lady. I hope my son and his friends have not bothered you." 

" Oh no, they have been perfect gentlemen." 

" Good. Since you are new to this school. I'm sure Headmaster Nolan helped you with your extracurricular activities?" 

"Yes, he has. Math Club, Music, and the Welton Lady High Society Tea." 

" Really? My wife is in that club. I'll make sure to tell her to help you out in the club. Just curious what instrument do you play?" 

" That would be great, and I play the piano." Juliet said as she felt a little nervous as she was being questioned by the police, but then seeing Mr. Perry cooling down. 

" I think Welton will make a fine young lady out of your yet." 

" Thank you, sir." 

" Good. Juliet would mind if I talk to the boys alone?" 

" Oh, of course. I was on my way out anyway. Bye, guys." Juliet said her goodbyes to her new friends as she started to relax since meeting Neil's father sure felt pretty scary.
