Larissa's POV

Today was Monday I got dressed, ate breakfast and headed to school. Once I got there I see the girls talking about a play "What is happening?" I ask "Our class is going to do the play this year!" Zoe said. The bell rang and we headed to our classroom The teacher told us about the play and how we have to do everything on our own "Who wants to be the director?" He asks Zoe puts her hand up and she gets chosen. Zoe went up to the front and said "Everyone will be auditioning weather you want to or not. They will be held in class right after the bell rings." "By the way the play you will be doing is Romeo and Juliet." The teacher says. I get nervous because there is a kissing scene but you never know.

----------Time Skips To The Auditions----------

"Okay boys on one side and girls on the other side" Zoe demands We split up.

The boys were give these lines:

It is the east and Juliet is the sun!
Arise, fair sun, and kill ,
Who is already sick and pale with grief
That thou her maid art far more fair than she.
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
,
And none but fools do wear it. Cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love! (10)
O that she knew she were!
She speaks, yet she says nothing; what of that?
Her , I will answer it.
I am too bold: 'tis not to me she speaks.

What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As daylight doth a lamp.
See how she leans her cheek upon her hand
O that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!

The girls lines were:


What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name.
What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he
Without that title. Romeo, ,
And for that name, which is no part of thee, (50)
Take all myself.

It was a lot but Zoe shortened it like a lot she also said that it would be more 20th century. She said she wasn't aloud to change it to much because the teacher wanted it to be as close to the original as possible. Zoe went trough everyone and it took her only 10 mins to find out who was who in the play. But none of us were shocked she put out the list. It took about an hour 30 mins each side and like 10 mins for Zoe to figure out who is who.

After seeing the list I was shocked that I was the leading female and Andrew will kill me because I have to kiss Aiden K like 50 times during Practices. Everyone had a part except for Anisha because she is on holiday that day lucky. Andrew walks me home and asked if I was comfortable with this I said kind of and because this is for a lot extra curricular points so I had to take it. But it does feel uncomfortable kissing Aiden K out of all people tho. Whats worse is that are going to be other people their and there are going to see everything. the play is only 1 hour Larissa you can do this it won't effect anything just breath.
