Priestess Lawrence, carrying her briefcase is walking down Verona Drive on her way to The Church. Roman knows Lawrence's walking path and is waiting patiently by the front gate of the Monday manor. He spots her and shouts to catch her attention, "J Law! Jen!" This tactic proves to be successful and Priestess Lawrence approaches Roman with a friendly smile.
"Well, good morning Roman!" Lawrence greets, "I am afraid I am not able to spend much time chatting this morning. I must get these," she gestures to her briefcase, "poisonous herbs and plants to The Church."
"Don't worry, I can talk while we walk the rest of the way."
The pair begins again towards The Church.
"What did you want to talk to me about Roman?"
"Jennifer, I have met the most amazing guy."
"Well, that's wonderful. Who may this lucky man be?"
"It is Lord Cap's son, Jen, I am in love with Julian Cap."
"Does he return your affections?"
"Yes, he does," Roman grins, "he and I spoke about it last night."
"Last night?" Lawrence asks, suspiciously "What were you two doing last night?"
Roman puts up his hands in defense, "We didn't do anything sinful, we just talked about our feelings. I would like you to help us come out to the entire town, we want people to accept us."
"Are you sure? Not all people are very accepting and especially with the feud between your two families, that will make it even more difficult for people and your families to accept you as a couple." Lawrence is wary.
"Yes, I am sure and I want what is best for Julian. I don't want to hide us forever. I want to be able to go out and do things with him without being ridiculed and given looks of disgust."
"I will do it, but we must proceed with caution."
"Agreed."

Roman & Julian
RomanceI've been meaning to write this since ninth grade. That was four years ago. This book is crude, it is uncensored, and there are no trigger warnings because life doesn't give trigger warnings. Read at your own risk. ○edited: 12/07/17○ ○edited: 01/15...
