ETERNAL LOVE (A Romeo-Juliet Spin Off)

First Kiss

"Romeo, we are going back." Mercutio chided. He was done with his friend's foolish and childish love acts.

"I want to see her, again. I am not leaving without speaking to her." Romeo argued making his point. Romeo felt like he couldn't breathe without thinking about her and he could never manage to live without her by his side.

The other two friends shook their heads. "You can leave if you don't want to stay." Romeo said giving them a look.

It was settled then. No matter what, the three friends always had each others back and this time wasn't going to be any different. They walked around the garden finding a way to get inside while staying hidden from the eyes of Capulet.

Romeo saw it, finally. Juliet stood in the balcony looking....sad. Romeo jumped away to ran towards her and flee her sadness away from her.

The young lover rushed to cure the crestfallen look over his lover's face.

"Psst." He called. No answer came. He reached higher and called again. No response came  from the other side. He became restless and jumped straight infront of his lover's face.

She backed away instantly, frightened by the sight infront of her.

"Don't be afraid. It just me, your Romeo. Remember?" Romeo mouthed softly but the expression on the face of Juliet wasn't a pleasant one.

"I remember you and now I know you, Romeo. You never bothered to tell me that you were a Montague." Juliet seethed, hurtful.

"You never mentioned being a Capulet, too." Romeo back-fired.

They stayed like that, watching each other, looking into each other's eyes. Juliet finally broke the silence.

"Are you here to kill me?" Juliet asked gripping her dress.

"What? Why would I ever do that? I love you, Juliet." Romeo said hastily. Both of them looking at each other  wide-eyed. Romeo closed the distance to embrace Juliet but she backed away instantly.

"My father had already arranged my marriage to Paris. He is a kinsman." Juliet said holding her dress. She doesn't want to marry Paris but neither could she marry an enemy.

"Do you love him?" Romeo asked. "Be truthful, Juliet. My life is in your hand." Romeo said with hurt evident on his face.

"I don't love him b-but neither do I love you." Juliet confessed embarrased. Romeo smiled at her which made Juliet question his true intentions.

"Is this a ploy, Romeo? I thought you were a noble man." Juliet said with hurt evident in her eyes.

"I love you Juliet and I know that I would do anything for you and your happiness." Romeo argued while closing the distance between them slowly. Juliet didn't moved away this time.

Their breath tickled each other's lips but they didn't closed the distance.

"I love you Juliet. I want to spend every moment of my life watching you and living with you. I want to marry you and grow old with you. I want you to trust me because I can never imagine hurting you. I would die--"

"--Death is not something I wish for you, Romeo." Juliet whispered pressing her finger against Romeo's lips. Romeo appeared to be pained and writhing in agony. He needed Juliet.

"What do you wish for me then, Juliet?" Romeo asked. His lips moving against Juliet's finger. Juliet waited to answer while looking into Romeo's eyes as if searching for something.

"I want you to tell me the thruth." Juliet commanded but it held tenderness to it.

"I am all yours." Romeo said instantly making Juliet giggle. He rubbed his neck in embarrasment and blushed lightly.

"Is this a trap?" Juliet began questioning.

"If my love for you is a trap then I am sorry because I can't help falling in this trap myself." Romeo whispered and his hand moved to touch Juliet's face. Juliet melted under the touch.

"Why did you came here?" Juliet asked closing her eyes.

"I was meant to be here, Juliet. The sole reason behind my existence was to find you and love you forever, Juliet. I love you so much that it hurts my heart every moment I am unable to see you." Romeo whispered into Juliet's lips. She lost it all at that moment.

Her lips crashed against his. She had no idea what she was doing but Romeo seemed to knew exactly what he was doing. Juliet let him take control. Their lips moved against each other slowly while their hands roamed aimlessly touching and exploring every part of their lover's body.

They break apart to catch their breath but soon joined their lips again in a never ending passionate battle of love.

Juliet smiled into Romeo's lips realising that it was her first kiss.

"What about Paris? And Father? Everyone would be furious." Juliet broke apart as soon as the thought crossed her mind and she voiced it out.

Romeo had placed his hands over Juliet's waist while Juliet's fingers were playing with Romeo's soft copper-brown hairs. Romeo gave her a chaste kiss before answering.

"Paris is out of the picture now because fortunately, you don't love him and about your father....we will find a solution to it later." Romeo said bending down and locking his lips with Juliet's pink ones.

They broke the kiss to breath, again.

"What does this mean, Romeo?" Juliet asked while pointing a finger from her to Romeo.

Romeo thought for a moment before answering.

"This means that we are together, Juliet. This means that I belong to you and you belong to me. This means that we can't be broken apart. This means that we are in love, Juliet." Romeo whispered into Juliet's ear as if he was sharing a secret only meant for Juliet to be heard.

Juliet couldn't get any more happier and embraced Romeo with everything she had.

"I love you, Romeo." Juliet confessed into Romeo chest.

"I love you, Juliet." Romeo confessed his love for her.

Together they stayed holding each other and breathing into each other for a long moment. A moment that belong entirely to the two young lovers.

Love is quite a magical thing.
