Katie is that one shy girl that crushes on someone and never tells them. Ya see ever since middle school Katie has had a HUGE crush on Sam. One reason why I only see him as a friend. I hate that Sam likes me thought cause it makes me feel bad for Katie. "So give me the tea with Alex and you. Everyone is talking about you two coming to school together." Adam said. " it's only been 5 minutes!" I stated. " I know! That's 3 more minutes than it usually takes for me to find out gossip" he said pouting. " nothing is going on with Alex and me. Although we keep having these moments where like we're seconds away from kissing. And today we hung out before school and he came to my house and he maybe sorta saw me with not clothes on." I said softly looking down. " HE SAW YOU NAKED!" Adam, Katie, and Jessica said a loudly together. " SHHH! And no just my like bra and underwear" I said. "Ooooo I see you" Adam said. "Shut up" I said .
*BELL*
"We'll see you guys later" I said hugging them all goodbye.
I walked into my World Lit class and sat down next to Alex. "Hey, I missed you beautiful" he said. " I just saw you less than 10 minutes ago" I said laughing. " that's soooo long" he said. I giggled to his remark. In World Lit we read 
"Romeo and Juliet" Mr. Holder was one of those teacher who made there class act it out. Probably cause he's the theater teacher as well. Always looking for people to be in his plays. Of course Mr.Holder chose Alex to be Romeo , saying as Alex was ALL the teacher's favorite. Since Alex was playing Romeo every girl wanted to be Juliet but, Alex whispered to Mr. Holder and next thing I knew Mr. Holder had called me up there to be Juliet. I groaned and walked up to the front of the class with Alex. " I hate you" I whispered to Alex causing him to chuckle. When I looked to the class every girl was giving me death stares. Mr. Holder told us to do the scene where Romeo goes to Juliet's window.
"Tis but thy name that is my enemy.Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.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 owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name, which is no part of thee, Take all myself." I said."I take thee at thy word.
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptis'd; Henceforth I never will be Romeo." Alex said."What man art thou that, thus bescreened in night,
So stumblest on my counsel?" I said."By a name
I know not how to tell thee who I am:My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself, Because it is an enemy to thee.Had I it written, I would tear the word." Alex said. "My ears have yet not drunk a hundred words
Of thy tongue's uttering, yet I know the sound.
Art thou not Romeo, and a Montague?" I said. "Neither, fair saint, if either thee dislike." Alex said. Alex stepped closer to me and placed his hand on my cheek caressing it. Causing me to stare up into his eye making me forget about everyone and everything around me.

*RING*
The bell had made me snap out of the trance I was in and I turned to look at the class and they all stood amazed. "Brilliant! You two are the leads in the schools play" Mr. Holder said. I didn't know what to say but Alex knew what to say. " That's amazing! Thank you Mr. Holder" he said. "I came in here for World Lit and ended up being volunteered to be Juliet and then taken into the play" I said to Alex. " I guess today's your lucky day" he said. " Time went by fast" I said ignoring him. " yea it did." Nick said from behind me. " Welp gotta get to Calculus" I said rolling my eyes. " Me too!'' Alex said. Turns out we have ANOTHER class together!
