This is a flashback to the Enchanted Forest.

I lay beside him, crying. I can't get over the fact that he's gone. Oh no, if anyone finds me, they won't be happy to see me crying over the body of a Montague. But I'll never see him again.

I'll never see him again. The thought of that is too much to bear. I need to die, now, so that I may join him.

I find a knife, and hold it up to my throat.

"Stop!" I hear an unfamiliar voice call. I turn around. It's a woman, one I don't recognize. "He's not dead."

"What?"

"I know Romeo. He told me of his plan. He drank a potion to make himself appear dead, and once he was buried and his family forgot him, I would come get him so that he and his love-"

"That's me," I interrupt.

"So that you two could run off together," she finishes. Romeo begins to stir. His eyes flutter open.

"Juliet?" he asks.

"This one was about to kill herself when I came in and told her the plan," says the woman.

"Regina," Romeo says, "Thank you for saving my Juliet."

"Now can we run off together?" I ask.

"Of course, my love. Goodbye, Regina."

As we leave, I stop and turn back around. "Oh, and Regina? Thank you for saving my life."
