As soon as Caelius stood up, Juliette's head snapped up to look at him. She didn't want him to go, per say, even though things were awkward. He was the first male she'd met in a while that didn't make her feel completly uncomfortable. She wasn't going to hold him back, though. He could be late for an appointment for all Juliette knew.

"Good bye, then." Her smile was obviously forced as she watched him leave the shop.
