Chapter 16 : Lunch date

*Juliet*

My phone vibrating on my nightstand wakes me up around 8 a.m. This is the latest I’ve slept in since I got back to Green Waters, and I’m annoyed at the interruption. I groan as I roll over in bed and blindly reach for the phone. I clear my throat, needing to be professional just in case, but I don’t open my eyes yet.

“Hello, this is Juliet,” I answer the phone with my professional voice.

“Hey, Juliet, it’s Eric.” Eric’s voice is full of laughter. He is wide awake and probably has been for hours.

“Oh, hey.” I sit up in bed and yawn a little, preparing to deal with all of his energy.

“What are you up to today?” Eric asks. He sounds excited like he has a plan for us.
