Romeo & Julie ☆ Lariana

[o2]

I exhaled the last of my cigaret before stepping into the porch of a big cream house. I rang the bell and straighten out my black leather jacket.

"Hello, you must be Ariana. I'm Andy, Luke's dad. His expecting you upstairs." a tall man greeted, I decided to be nice and politely said hi back,

I stepped inside the beautifully decorated home. I traced my fingers around the delicate mantelpiece in the middle of the hall until I hear the most peaceful voice.

"Beautiful isn't it?" a shorter woman entered the room. Must be Luke's mom.

"Salutations, I'm Elizabeth. Luke's mom, but call me Liz." I returned the hello and asked where she got the mantelpiece, it reminded me of my mom.

"My mother gave it to me, not many of them left. What's your name dear?"

"Ariana, my names Ariana grande." She nodded happily until I bided Liz goodbye since Luke must be wondering where I was.

"Hey stupido." he laughed and rolled his eyes. "As much I hate you and that smell you brought into my bedroom. We have to get started, as you probably know I'm not the best a drama."

"No shit sherlock, so what's Romeo & Juliet about?" He looked at me with a shocked expression and replied.

"You mean you've never read Romeo & Juliet? Who the fuck are you?"

"I'm Julie that's who I am." I sat down on the wooden ground and continued. "just tell me what the fuck it's about."

He sighed and explained. "Romeo & Juliet's about a long feud between the Montague and Capulet families disrupts the city of Verona and cause tragic results for Romeo & Juliet. Then revenge, love and a secret marriage force the young star-crossed lovers to grow up quickly but they loved each other so dear that fate causes them to commit suicide in despair."

I blinked blankly and repeated. "So it's about two people with two families who hated each other but yet they loved each other so much they died." Luke rolled his eyes with annoyance.

"In order to play the roll of Juliet you have to understand the play."

I shrugged and say "What do you think this play has to say?"

"I think Shakespeare shows a great representation of love, how two people can love each other so dearly that not even the never ending feud of the own families can tear them apart but it doesn't end like those pointless cliché stories do. Romeo chooses to die for Juliet because just thinking of a life without her is unbearable."

I snorted. "That's pretty stupid in my opinion, I mean why die for love? It still gives you a broken heart anyway."

"Not every relationship ends that way. Have you ever been in love? Or do you just have sex with every guy you see and then adios," the girl remains silent and for the first time in days he felt sorry for the girl.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that." he apologised. The girl shook her head and smiled.

"Let's just get over this."

After a few minutes Ariana finally got to pronounce the words 'thou', 'art' or 'wherefore' without making witty comments about it.

"I mean what are they saying? 'Wherefore art thou Romeo?' Juliet must be stupid because his right I front of her. " she laughed endlessly.

"Stop, it's not funny. Juliet asks 'Wherefore art thou Romeo?' . The word 'wherefore' means why therefore Juliet is wondering why the boy she loves is called what his called. Not where he is." Luke rolled his eyes.

"You know this is ridiculous. There's no point on rehearsing our lines when our chemistry is a flop. So let's just get to know each other." as much as Luke hated this girl he wanted to make amends with her.

Luke notice how her mood would drop down low when the script mentions Romeo's family arguing or even when someone mentions something about dying. She seems like one of those girls who hides a big part of them behind a smile.

The girl simply shrugged and sat down on the tall boy's bed. "So what do you wanna know about?" The girl asks calmly.

"Why do you smoke?"
