Mercutio

I was fuming. I just told him he loved me, had planned a lovely evening for us at this party and he turned me down. Now I look like a fool. He probably just got close to me and invited me here tonight so they can kill me. What have I brought romeo and benvolio into? I don't want them to get hurt. I, however, don't think I can live without him anymore.

I was stood, my blood boiling, anger focused on him and usually I know what he's thinking but not tonight. Maybe that's just because he was playing with me. Suddenly, he took a step closer and walking in a circle, started whisper singing. This was a song I knew he hadn't sang before, at least not for anyone but his mother and she's been dead for years. It was a special, ancient song that only the founding families knew about. I felt my heart break a bit more. How could I ever think he didn't love me? All the while it kept getting closer to one line, one very important line. And he said the one that broke me completely, at the same time making me whole like never before. "Marry me, will you?"
