The school play of Romeo and Juliet was being held in the gym and Lollie was ready to leave.

Lucas stood on stage as Romeo and Riley laying on the slate as Juliet.

What a surprise.

"Eyes, look your last. Arms, take your last embrace. And, lips, oh, you the doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss." Lucas aka Romeo said, bending down over Riley.

Lucas bent down to kiss Riley, only centimeters apart but Farkle jumped on stage with his "spear".

"Back off!" Farkle shouted waving his "spear".

"What meanest thou? Spear carrier...who havest no lines." Lucas asked, with utter confusion written on his face.

Lucas only shifted his head to look for Lollie, she stood in the back.

Lollie looked up and saw Lucas' face with a sign of help. Lollie only leaned back on the frame of the door and shrugged her shoulders.

"You tried to kiss my woman. This I cannot allow. Prepare to die!" Farkle continued shouting.

"Farkle, what are you doing? It's "Romeo and Juliet."" Lucas asked.

"Well, now it's "Romeo and Juliet and Farkle." Farkle said still shaking his spear, "I play Farkle."

"Dude, I'm supposed to kiss the girl. Shakespeare said." Lucas said.

"Who thinks the spear-carrier should finally get to kiss Juliet?" Farkle asked the audience raising his arms.

"Yeah, you kiss that girl, you crazy spear carrier." Maya said standing and clapping her hands.

"Woo." Riley muttered from the stage.

"Hark! You cometh uppeth here and getteth kissed too." Farkle said pointing to Maya.

Farkle looked around to see if Lollie was in the gym but she seem to have wandered off.

﹏﹏﹏﹏

Lollie stood by Mr. Matthews' door as everyone else stood waiting for everyone else to come out.

Riley, Maya, and Lucas all came out of the auditorium and all of them got a round of applause.

Except for Lollie who only rolled her eyes.

Farkle on the other hand didn't get an applause when he came and Lollie felt bad and clapped for him.

Soon after Riley did the same and every other person clapped for Farkle.

"Thank you. Thank you, Farkle Nation!" Farkle shouted giving people high fives.

"Why did you leave?" Lucas asked Lollie.

"Who wants to see two teenagers fall in love, kiss, then kill themselves?" Lollie questioned.

"I see your point." Lucas said.

Beforehand Lucas tried to drop hints for Lollie to be Juliet in the play but obviously didn't work.

"I have to go find food but I'll see you later, Friar." Lollie sat patting his shoulder and walking away.

Lollie walked towards the cafeteria but she remembered that Finn bought her a lollipop from the store and went back to get it.

"I'm not afraid. I'm nice." Riley's voice roared through the hallway.

Lollie stopped a couple of feet away from the two but she was still close enough to hear.

"You're saying we're not nice?" Maya asked her.

"By the way you treat Lollie, I would think you're not that nice." Riley said.

"Lollie is different from us Riley. Have you actually see someone who has blue hair and wears pj's to school?" Maya asked in frustration.

"Well no but-"

"But nothing. She's different, now back to the topic at hand. Tell him the truth. You know Farkle. You know what will happen if you don't." Maya told her.

Lollie decided that she didn't want her lollipop anymore.

On her way out the school doors, she passed Mr. Matthews.

Matthews saw the look on Lollie's face and decided just to let her go.

﹏﹏﹏﹏

Lollie walked into her small apartment where she saw Noah and Mariah sitting on the couch watching tv.

"Scoot over Mariah." Lollie said.

"Why didn't you ask Noah to move?"

"Because I'm not in the mood to deal with him and his stupidity."

"Um, excuse me I am offended by your comment." Noah said.

"No one cares." The two girls said.

"What's wrong?" Mariah asked scooting over.

"I want to move." Lollie said.

"We just got here you dumb nut." Noah said thumping Lollie's head.

"I don't care."

"Lollie we can't just get up and go." Mariah said.

"Then forget my problems." Lollie said and went upstairs.

"Girls am I right?" Noah questioned and leans back on the couch.

﹏﹏﹏﹏

Lollie walked into class, almost two seconds before the bell rang.

Why was she almost late?

Because Finn likes his sleep like everyone in the house does but no one in the house set the alarm clock that night.

"Your literally almost late every other day. What's up with that?" Lucas asked Lollie.

"Not in the mood." Lollie said getting her stuff out.

"What happened?"

Lucas was generally worried about what was happening to Lollie. Once again, hormones?

"Like I said, not in the mood."

"Nice locket." Riley told Maya.

"You likey?" Maya asked.

"If history's about discovering the truth of what happened in the past, we should spend some time finding out what truth is." Mr. Matthews said starting his lesson.

"Where'd you get the nice locket?" Riley asked.

"Shush, I come here to learn."

The two looked at each other and busted out laughing, but to Lollie, it was displeasing so she put her head down.
﹏﹏﹏﹏

The bell had rung and everyone had left.

Except for a sleeping Lollie.

"Ms. Parker." Mr. Matthews said sitting at the desk in front of her.

Lollie raised her head and saw Mr. Matthew in front of her.

"This is the second time you've slept in my class. What's wrong?"

"Nothing." She said packing her stuff.

"Lollie, I'm your teacher. I'm supposed to help you."

"Well lucky for me I don't need help."

She walked towards the door when he put his hand on her shoulder.

"So you're positive nothing is bothering you."

"Fine, you got it out of me."

"Tell me."

"My annoying teacher has been bothering me." She smiled, "Can you tell him to stop?"

With that, she left.

﹏﹏﹏﹏

Lollie sat behind the stage thinking about what she and Mr. Matthews talked about.

She finally gave up on thinking and laid down looking at the roof of the building.

"Anything interesting up there?" Lucas asked and laid beside her.

"Nope, just some rope."

The two laid in silence before Lucas broke it.

"Has someone been bothering you?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Because I overheard your conversation with Mr. Matthews."

"So?"

"It's not okay for someone or something to be bothering you, you're new here."

"But so are you."

Lollie and Lucas stayed the for what felt like hours but was only minutes.

"Did you see Farkle kiss Riley?" Lucas asked.

"No, but heard everything. "My moment will be my moment." What is that supposed to mean?"

"When the time comes I'll make a move." He explained.

"On Riley?"

"Maybe, maybe not. It just depends on who I'm with and if the moment is right."

Lollie smiled, "You know I played Juliet in the play before."

"Really? Did you actually kiss the person?"

She sat up and smiled.

"I smell jealousy in the air."

Panic rose, "No I just-"

"It's okay, Friar. Want me to show you how we did it?"

"Sure."

"Okay, so he put his thumbs on my lips."

Lollie grabbed Lucas's hands and placed his thumbs on her lips.

"Then he kissed his thumbs."

"That easy?" Lucas asked removing his hands.

"That easy."
﹏﹏﹏﹏

Lollie and her siblings stood at the train station waiting for them to come since they missed the first one.

"This is all your fault you know." Mariah said to Noah.

"How?"

"If you didn't fail your quiz we could be home by now." Lollie said.

"You're doing the right thing, returning the locket to the store." Riley told Maya as the two walked in.

Lollie leaned further back so the duo would not see her, but Mariah and Noah took notice.

"Lollie, is that Maya and Riley?" Mariah asked.

"Just don't look at them."

"I guess so." Maya muttered.

"Maya, I know how much you want a locket with a family inside it." Riley said trying to cheer her up.

"You just want to walk?" Noah asked.

"Please."

The trio never rode the subway but they'll just ride it another time.

"Let's go." Mariah said.

The three turned around and walked up the stairs but not before Riley took notice of Lollie's blue hair.
