"Connor, read the passage on page 67 out loud."

At the back of the class, the green eyed boy with messy caramel hair lifted one of his eyebrows, staring back at the teacher with boredom. Everyone else in the classroom started to whisper with each other, since they always thought that they were better than anyone. Connor knew that some of them hate him for being a jerk at school but what can a 17 years old boy can do about it?

Lazily, Connor stood up and started to read the passage out loud to the class with no interest in his tone.

"Two households, both alike in dignity.
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene.

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.

From forth the fatal loins of these two foes.

A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;

Whose misadventured piteous overthrows.

Do with their death bury their parents' rage.

Which, but their children's end, nought could remove is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;

The which if you with patient ears attend,

What here shall miss,

Our toil shall strive to mend."

He always love reading Romeo and Juliet but he never talk about it with anyone. His friends said that reading books was uncool, so he decided that he'll kept that hobby to himself alone.

Little does he knows, at the corner of the classroom, a pair of ocean eyes were staring at him with interest.
