♡ Romeo and Juliet ♡
It has been two weeks since Michelle revealed that Y/n and James like eachother in front of everyone... and since then, the pair hadn't talked to each other much.
They only hung out together when they were with the rest of the group and they only communicated in short 'His' and 'Byes'. It was very awkward, but neither of them knew what to say.
♡
Y/n sat in her English class, trying to focus on her assignment when she heard her teacher mutter the words "Ah, fuck,"
The girl tried her hardest not to laugh at her teacher's uncharacteristic profanity but immediately snapped out of it when she heard her name being called.
"Mr. Maguire and Ms. L/n, could the two of you please go to the storage cupboard and grab the two boxes that has the copies of Romeo and Juilet in them. I forgot to bring them to class,"
Y/n glanced at James, who was sitting near the back of the class, only to find that he was already looking at her. They both looked away quickly, hoping the other person didn't catch them staring.
"Yes miss," the pair replied in unison before leaving the classroom, both of them looking towards the ground.
Neither y/n or James spoke a word on their walk to the storage cupboard. It was the first time that they had been alone together in weeks.
While they were walking, James was trying to figure out how he would start the conversation, how he would tell y/n that Michelle was right about his feelings for her.
Y/n opened the door of the cupboard, almost sneezing from the dust. She pulled on the string attached to the bare lightbulb above her head and the inside illuminated. The space was quite big, it was more like a small room than a cupboard, but the boxes and shelves on each of the walls made it that there was only about two square meters of standing room.
"Can you hold the door? It's one of those ones that you can't open from the inside," Y/n turned to James.
"Yeah sure," he quickly nodded, as he stood with his back to the cupboard door.
Y/n tried to look through a few of the boxes, there was exam papers and old documents but no sight of Romeo and Juliet.
The girl stood on her tip-toes as she tried to take the top box off of the big stack in the corner, but it was heavier than expected and came falling down towards her head.
Y/n shut her eyes, anticipating the weight of the box but it never came... as she opened her eyes, she saw that James was standing right beside her, slowly putting the box on the floor.
