[color=f6989d]It's weird having parents around when you get used to seeing them sparsely through your teenage years save for the holidays where it was a family event, the rest of the days often through a screen or a phone call daily to keep in touch despite the time zone difference from wherever they were.

The week since the announcement was a rollercoaster for Juno, who had just came home with her parents from having gone up to New York for her birthday after school let out for summer cause she wanted to be as far from Ohio as possible. Where she quickly discovered that being eighteen sucked, cause her parents really couldn't stop the annoying paparazzi from hounding her whenever they were together. So being yelled at with lights flashing repeatedly in her eyes was an awful way to come out of watching a Broadway show she had been dying to see.

They were the biggest damper on her time in New York, but she was persistent in enjoying her time there. Shopping with her mother and eventually going with her dad to the studio for his last few sessions where she got to meet a few of his co-stars. Her brothers were enjoying the hotel they were staying to really bother her outside of their gaming sessions when she got home. Somehow, she got to enjoy a few peaceful hours every day when she went to a dance class on her own after spending a nice time with her parents. By far the most challenging bit of her vacation for her, but it was nice to indulge in a little hobby with people who liked it too.

The day they got back to Ohio, she had no time to really comprehend her whole school transferring to Rosefell or the email that entailed it all, thanks to the tradition of spending the first couple of days with both with her parents and the Barker the day after they settled back into their large family home. Sure, she got to enjoy the ever pleasant company of the Barkers and her "big bro" Christian for a few days as their parents caught up, it was really the last two days that it sunk in what was happening.

So much so that she almost worked herself up into an asthma attack from her panic when it all dawned on her in the middle of watching the local news also talking about the upcoming day of Rosefell's school year starting in two days. She was thankful that she had finished Sam's commissions before she had left and had told Emily that she was gonna be mostly sleeping to recover since those last two days were filled with her going through her closet and trying to find an outfit to make an impression-- [i]What impression[/i], she didn't know. To be honest, she hadn't made it that far with the planning yet, but something about pulling things together helped her settle some of her nerves enough to collect her thoughts.

Everything was going to be fine, it's a new school, she can reinvent herself and not be the same Juno she was at Liberty. Plus she might have known a few people already from being the thrift store shopper she was or from the diner dinners her father took the family to occasionally. Him being a big supporter for local businesses should surely be something that would help her.

So when the day arrived, and she woke up with as much ease as one would expect from an eighteen-year-old going to the first day of their senior year. Her snooze button suffering a few knocks before she finally [i]rolled[/i] out of bed in her cocoon wrapped comforter, groaning like a zombie, knowing full well she had put her alarm earlier for this exact reason. Even late, she was still early in getting up from expecting her being the one to take her brother's to school, and she had to make sure she looked stunning.

[url=https://youtu.be/-RJSbO8UZVY][color=#F06564]Music[/color][/url] rang out of her stereo as she leisurely went about her business getting dressed in the [url=https://imgur.com/bnXUSvC][color=#F06564]outfit[/color][/url] she put together the day before. Struggling a little bit with her stockings and socks thanks to her thick thighs, but they were gonna look great with how the dress accentuated her curves, and she got to wear her new leather jacket and shoes. Curling her hair and bangs into her signature style so it could hang down and frame her face, that she spent a while putting makeup on  except for her lipstick. Being careful to not mess up the whole time with a steady hand, then she would be ready.

Slipping her black heeled ankle boots on just as she was heading out of her room, with her backpack in hand to quickly make her way down the spiraling stairs, heading for the kitchen. The sight of her mother hugging her father from behind as he cooked breakfast, whispering things between each other with sleepy smiles while her younger brothers were seated at the counter’s stools, both of them still in their pajamas and their heads resting on the granite counter snoozing away since the smell of their dad’s infamous egg sandwiches had probably lured them down.[color=7bcdc8]"Good morning sweetheart, you’re just in time for breakfast."[/color] Her father said without even looking away from the egg he was frying.

[color=F06564]”I’m not really hungry Dad—- Mom, do I have to take Jasper and Fineas to school?”[/color] Juno quickly asked, shifting her attention onto her mom, who looked at her with a raised brow, already seeing where this was going to end.

[color=7ea7d8]“I was planning on taking them, but you should try to eat something before you go.”[/color] Her mother began, watching as her daughter was making a beeline for the front door, snagging an apple on the way.

[color=F06564]”Already done—“[/color]

[color=7bcdc8]“Juno Marie Micheals.”[/color]

As if this was gun match, the redhead froze in place at the doorway, just a few feet away from freedom. Unbeknownst to her parents, cringing at hearing her full name being used in the [i]Bohannon voice[/i], one reserved for orders, grim news, and the rare scolding. Slowly turning her head to look over her shoulder, she asked, [color=F06564]“Yes, Dad?”[/color]

Her blue-ish green eyes watching her father point his spatula at her. [color=7bcdc8]“Eat a good lunch... And try to have a good day, okay?”[/color] Her father smiled a little and the tension that had built immediately left as she sighed. [color=F06564]“You got it old man, seriously though, can you not give me a heart attack the first day of senior year— Save that for prom night.”[/color] She joked as she continued heading out for the day.

Herbie, her lovely red Volkswagen Beetle that was the apple of her eye, was her pumpkin and carriage to the new grounds of Rosefell after she ate her apple and threw it away. Starting it up only after applying her lipstick and dabbing off the excess with one of the tissues she kept in her car. 

Her backpack resting in the passenger seat as she followed the GPS to her new school with a wide variety of songs playing in the background, sometimes she would hum along that soon evolved into singing along as she turned into the parking lot of the school. The rounded sunglasses hiding the fact she was scanning the area for a good spot as much as she was looking for familiar faces, or the one in particularly who might be the Lilith she was going to be shown around by.

[color=F06564]”Shit,”[/color] Juno said suddenly the second she shut off her car, her head dipping downward to rest on top of her hands resting on the steering wheel as a rather unpleasant thought occurred,[color=F06564]”[i]Hunter[/i].”[/color] 

She groaned unhappily under her breath at the memory of the other shitty guy in her life, and how he was a a senior student at Rosefell like her too now. 

Despite how peeling out and skipping the entire day became ten times more appealing than staying, Juno grabbed her bag and got out of the warmth of the inside of her car. The cold air prickled against her lungs with the deep inhale she forced herself to do, as she stared slightly upward to the sky with her bag slung over her shoulder.

[color=F06564]”Today’s gonna be a wild fuckin’ ride.”[/color][/color]
