You Saved Me

Juliet's POV: Ella and I were waiting inside the studio with John when we heard Teenagers by MCR playing outside. John and I laugh at Katie's antics, but Ella looks deeply confused, so I say, "It's just Katie and her friends pulling up, I'm sure."
"Katie? That's the girl Ashley's dating, right?" she asked in her sweet English accent.
"Yeah. Want to meet her?" I ask.
"Umm...Tell me a little more about her, first. Jake hasn't told me much, and I don't want to seem rude by not knowing much about her," Ella says, "I mean, in a sense, we're all sisters thanks to the guys."
"Alright. What do you want to know?" I ask, knowing it will take a while for them to get inside.
"Any topics I should avoid?" she asked.
"Yeah, a few. Don't mention her scars, parents, or anything along that line," I tell her, feeling my smile fade as I talk about those things.
"Scar?" Ella asked for clarification.
"She's working on recovering from..." I trail off, then run my hand across my wrist, mimicking someone cutting themselves.
"Oh," Ella gasps with wide eyes, full of understanding.
"Yeah," I whisper.
"Her family. Who are they now?" she asked.
"Jayy Von Monroe adopted her a while back, but because they were so much alike, Dahvie got their hair tested and found out they are actually brother and sister," I explain.
"Alright. Good things to talk about?" she asked.
"Music is her passion. Last I heard, she loves her school now, and another good topic is to talk about her friends. She also loves telling stories about when she was on tour with BOTDF, BVB, and Asking," I tell her, trying to think of other things that might be good topics of discussion for the two girls.
"What's she like?" Ella asked, inturpting my thoughts.
"She's depressed, but does a good job at hiding it. She's very loud and completely outgoing. Has no problem speaking her mind, about anything. I guess the word I'm really looking for is unique or one-of-a-kind all the way around," I explain.
"Alright. I think I got it now. Thank you, Jewels," she says, smiling at me.
I smile back, and say, "What are sister's for?"
A few moments pass then, and everyone piles into the room. Katie walks over to me and quickly hugs me, and greets me happily. She then pulls three people I haven't yet met over to us, and says, "Juliet, I want you to meet 3 of my new friends. This is Bunny, her twin sister Echo, and their little brother Camdon."
"Nicknames?" I ask the girls, which they nod, and I say, "Well, they're lovely. It's nice to meet you all by the way."
"P-Pleasure to m-meet you too, Juliet," the girl Katie said was Echo stammers.
"She's a little shy," Bunny says, "It's awesome to finally meet you Juliet. We're huge fans of yours."
"Aw, thank you, guys," I say, smiling at the three of them. Camdon, seems a bit out of it though. I'll have to ask Katie about that later.
"Well, Katie can you call Red and Rocket over here? I want them to meet Ella too," I say.
"Sure," Katie says, then walks to the door and looks around. I'm guessing when she sees them, she shouts, "Oh, come on! Do you two really have to makeout on the counter?! We fix food on that, you know!"
Ella stares at Katie with wide eyes, while the rest of us stifle our laughter at her crazy antics, once again. God, she never fails to amaze me sometimes.
"You have no room to talk, missy," Ashley tells her, causing her to turn around and narrow her eyes playfully at him.
She points at him, then says, "There's a big difference between doing it at your place and doing it at a studio, Purdy."
He raises his hands in surrender, then says, "Whatever you say, baby. Whatever you say."
"You're damn right," she says to him, then turns back to the hall, but suddenly pulls herself back into the room with wide eyes, shouting out the door, "Oh, come on!" then groans, "I did not need to see that."
"See what?" CC asked her.
"Lets just say, Rocket's head is under Red's skirt," she says, then shouts so they can hear in the kitchen, "And I'm not sitting next to someone with fish breath on the ride home!"
"Neither am I!" Bunny calls out.
"Ditto!" Echo shouts with her sister.
A moment later Red and Rocket walk into the room and Rocket says, "Great job at cock blocking me, Mic. Thanks."
"You're welcome," she replys, smiling sweetly at him, then walks over to Ashley and sits on his lap.
"You'll live, lover boy," Bunny tells him, sitting on the floor next to Juliet.
"Don't feel bad, man. It happens to the best of us," Ashley says, smirking at him.
"Maybe, and for the record, Red doesn't smell or taste like fish. She's like a sweet, ripe-"
"Rocket!" Red scolds him, covering his mouth with her hand to cut him off from saying another word. Can't say I blame her.
"You weren't kidding when you said they were insane, but they are awesome too," Ella whispers to me.
"Wait for everything to calm down, then we'll introduce everyone," I tell her, watching the scene playing out in front of us.
