*Five months later in Oslo, Norway*

She walked through the crowded airport rushing to her destination. She couldn't be late picking him up. He was depending on her to get him where he needed to be. She pulled her jacket tighet around her small frame her heels clicking against the hard floor of the airport. Finally her eyes spotted him, her little hobbit. She picked up speed as her feet brought her closer to him.

His brown eyes searched for her through the throng of people. He knew she wouldn't be easy to spot. She could easily blend in if she wanted too. He saw someone excusing their way through the crowd. His eyes lit up as he spotted her. She looked tired but she had been working hard these past five months.

"Hey," she said softly stepping into his wide open arms.

"Hey," he said softly wrapping his arms around her pulling her against him, "Has he made a decision yet?"

"No," she murmurs as she throws him a tight smile.

"What do you say about going to the hotel?" he asks smiling at her brightly.

"I don't know...she's there with her PR Lady," she sighs turning away from his hard gaze, "but I know you're tired. So let's go."

"We don't have too. We could get some coffee," he suggests as she shrugs her shoulders before leading the way to a towncar waiting for them.

"It's okay Trace...if you want to go to the hotel that is," she tells him as they enter the towncar together.

"So when does he have to let them know?" Trace asks as they start their journey to the hotel.

"Well Jessica and her PR Lady came to visit about two months ago...they talked to Justin in private but I think he has to let them know by the end of today," Juliet tells him as she fiddles with her jacket.

"Maybe I can talk some sense into him..." Trace says as she shook her head at him.

"No. Don't. It's his decision to make. He can choose to go back to her for publicity or to stay with me. He's a grown man," she says with a hint of anger in her tone.

"Okay then I won't say anything to him. Strictly business, right?" Trace told her as she nodded her head.

"Right. The meeting is at two o'clock Oslo time so you have about three hours to rest at the hotel. I'll come get you when it's time to leave the hotel." Juliet tells him as they arrive at the hotel.

He sees Justin inside the hotel waiting either for him or Juliet, he's not really sure who. He steps out of the towncar and his silent question is answered because Justin is still searching for her. Searching for her like maybe she grabbed a flight at the airport and went back home without him. Juliet steps out of the towncar and he sees Justin sigh in relief. However she doesn't make any move to enter the hotel instead she steps to the right headed off by herself.

"You're not coming in?" Trace asked her as she closed her jacket tighter from the cold Norway air.

"No, I have plans," she said throwing him a geniune smile.

"Oh really? And who do you know in Norway?" Trace asked enjoying giving her a hard time like old times.

"My cousin Fredrick, he's here on business. You can come if you like...," she offered as Trace just shook his head at her.

"See ya in three hours." He told her as he entered the hotel and she disappeared into the crowds walking along the sidewalks.

*In the hotel*

"Hey man, where did Juliet go?" Justin asked as he gave Trace a manly hug.

"She said something about meeting up with her cousin. Have you made your decision yet? Or are you planning on stringing Juliet along?" Trace asked as he cocked his eyebrow at Justin.

"Man... I just let Jessica and her PR Lady feed me shit. Of course I'm going to choose Juliet. I love her. I know Jessica needs the publicity but like I told Alex, Juliet will always come first." Justin told Trace as he ran his hand over his face in frustration as they entered the elevator.

"Then you need to tell Juliet that and you need to let her know your decision before you tell Jessica. Frankly I'm surprised Juliet hasn't quit and left your ass to go back home." Trace told him as they got off on their floor.

"I know. Rachel is ready to kill me. Do you really think she would leave me and go back home?" Justin asked frantically.

"I don't know, she can do whatever she wants," Trace told him as they stood in front of his room, "Listen man I'm tired, Jules gave me three hours to rest, I wanna take advantage of that so I'll talk about this with you later."

*At the meeting (Justin's POV)*

I know I'm an asshole. Rachel has told me over and over ever since I hurt Juliet. I know she hates me. She's sitting across from me at this meeting waiting for Johan and Marcella Lindeberg. She won't even look at me. She's talking to Trace and Rachel but not me. Of course if I ask her a question she talks to me but I'm running out of things to ask about. This meeting is important but all I can think about is Juliet. I try to plaster on a smile as Johan and Marcella greet us and take us into their office. I watch Juliet sit down next to Trace and it breaks my heart.

"God dag, I'm glad we could have this meeting in our Norway office." Johan tells us as we all shake hands with him and his wife.

"Please thank your assistant for working with our schedule and meeting us in Norway instead of our home, Sweden." Marcella tells us and we all look at Juliet who is smiling.

"Varsagod," Juliet says as me, Trace, and Rachel look at her in surprise.

"You speak Swenska?" Johan asks her.

"Ja, jag heter Juliet Ljungberg." Juliet tells them.

"I thought you were mexican?" Trace asks her and she laughs.

"I am but my Stepdad is Swedish." Juliet explains and Johan and Marcella laugh.

"Well...Tack sa mycket Juliet....wait," Marcella says looking at Johan then at Juliet, "Ljungberg? As in Fredrick Ljungberg?"

"Yes, he's my cousin. Are you a fan?" Juliet asks and I'm confused as hell.

"Yes he is the best futbol player in Sweden! Besides he's hot!" Marcella says as her and Juliet crack up laughing.

"Okay, so Juliet let us know you all had some ideas, why don't we discuss those?" Johan says and I know this partnership is going to work beautifully.

Juliet is so smart. She just picked the best creative directors over the phone no less. Why am I such an idiot? I should have let her know right from the beginning she was my only choice, that I wasn't even considering being with Jessica for publicity. She will always come first. She is the perfect girl for me. Trace, Johan, and Marcella are throwing around ideas and Juliet is doodling. She does that during meetings sometimes. Like during on of Tom's meetings she drew a portrait of me that blew my mind. She's so talented.

"No, I don't think that would work. Justin what do you think?" Trace asks me and I turn to him. Juliet caught me looking at her and I feel like a loser.

"Um...well...I'm sorry...I wasn't..." I stutter out and they all look at me with pity and disappointment.

"Ursakta?" Juliet says quietly as Johan and Marcella turn their attention away from me and to her. Yeah she just saved my ass from embarrassment. "I was just thinking...what if we made William Rast a character?"

"Please explain..." Trace tells her and she looks at me quick for support. Then she realizes what she is doing and looks away from me.

"Well okay, picture this...William Rast as a person. I was thinking since we're trying to introduce the denim and sportswear collection, we could have the model portraying Will dress in denim and one of the new leather jackets. Like mug shots and we could set it up like a movie. Even make the ad into a movie with a website to garner more sales. Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde." Juliet says finally showing us her doodle, laying the pad on the table.

There in front of us is a drawing of me dressed in jean and a leather jacket from the new collection. I have bruises on my face and I'm holding those boards that you hold when they take your mug shot, it has William Rast as the name, I'm even throwing the peace sign in one. Then she flips the page showing me in a Ponitac with a girl beside me showing off the women's collection. The third page she shows us is me again standing in front of the same Ponitac with the hood popped open.

"We could have it so that no one knows what they're running from or where their running too so that we can use it for future collections." She explains and everyone loves it.

"Who is going to play Will?" Rachel asks and Juliet turns to me.

"Someone who we can use over and over for future shoots," she says as she looks at me, "I was thinking Justin. I mean talk about publicity for the line. All we have to do is leak a couple of shots to like WorldofJustin.com or the JTPC and his fans will eat it up. It would be like free publicity on a freaking silver platter."

"I love it." I say as I look at her but she's not waiting for my reaction. She's looking at Trace.

"It's perfect. Fucking perfect!" Trace says as he picks her up and spins her around.

"You didn't even need us." Johan says and we all laugh.

"Oh but we do. Who's going to put together the photo shoot and everything else? No me...I'm done." Juliet tells them laughing.

"Okay I guess we can put those together." Johan tell us as we leave their office, "Hej da."

"Hej da." Juliet tells them as we leave.

*At the hotel, Juliet's suite*

"Come in," Juliet says quietly as in response to the knock on her suite door.

"Hey," Justin says as he opens the door and walks into her suite, "Thanks for saving my ass back there," he tells her nervously.

"No problem...so is that all you have to say or should I get in a comfortable position? You know if this is going to be awhile...," she asks him and he notices she not sitting in the most comfortable position right now.

"Um...comfortable position," he mutters as she moves on the bed to a more comfortable position and looks up at him.

"Sweet, so....," she trails looking at him curiously.

"Baby, I've missed you so much," he rushes out walking over to her bed in two steps and sitting beside her, "I made my decision awhile ago. It's you. I don't need publicity, I know Jessica does but I'm through with that part of my life. I should have told you sooner but I promised Jess that I would at least think it through until today."

"So, I'm supposed to take you back just like that? Because after two months you finally choose me?" Juliet asks him shaking her head, "It's not that simple J."

"I'm not asking for it to be simple. I know I hurt you even if we didn't end things, we haven't been the same. I know you're pissed at me for being an idiot. Baby I love you, no one else but you. You know I'm a stupid man and I fuck up all the time but never doubt my love for you." Justin tells her as he pulls her into his arms and she rests her head on his shoulder letting out a sigh.

"This one time. Don't ever do it again," Juliet mutters as Justin nods his head, just holding her because he never wants to let go again.
