Romeo & Juliett: A Forbidden Love Story

Romeo & Juliett: A Forbidden Love Story: Ch. 10 - Edited.

Randy's POV:

I can't believe that girl actually had the nerve to come into our house just to talk to me and embarrass me even farther! Now not only did everyone at school make fun of me for being a sissy, I'm sure my parents would get a delight out it as well.

'Who does she think she is, a Beauty Queen pageant winner to be coming over and hugging just anybody she felt like?' my thoughts angrily flew around in my head.

I've never seen her around before though she looked oddly familiar. I wondered if she was still here though and cracked open the door to my room to see her and Romeo fighting. They were arguing while throwing the cushions from the couch around.

"Is Juliett Diamonds seriously not strong enough to defeat the one, the only, Romeo Rogers?!" Romeo boomed from his spot as he flexed his muscles.

Why did that name sound so familiar to me? A little girl's face flashed through my mind and I gasped, opening the door a little wider to look at the girl's appearance better. The door made a loud creaking noise and the girl, Juliett, immediately spun around. It wasn't for what I thought though, she spun around to get a better shot at Romeo, but I slammed the door anyway before she could catch me watching.

That little moment was enough to make me realize just who this girl was. Juliett Diamonds, Romeo had called her. Juliett Diamonds with those beautiful gray eyes and round face. Juliett Diamonds, my previous neighbor and one of my best friends ever. Juliett Diamonds, the only person who ever understood me and loved me. Juliett Diamonds, the girl I just...acted so rudely with. Juliett Diamonds, the girl that...cried in front of me!

'God, why was I so stupid?!' I yelled at myself in my thoughts. 'How could I possibly treat her like that?'

I continued to watch them, listening in on their conversation. Juliett had gotten so grown up and she was even prettier than she was back then.

"Shut up!" she told Romeo, throwing a pillow that hit him directly in the face.

He ended up tripping over the table then and collided with Juliett, causing them both to fall on top of the couch with Juliett on the bottom. I noticed Juliett's face immediately turn red and Romeo's face was just a wide grin.

I knew exactly what he was thinking and what he had planned to do, and that made my blood boil, because she was always in love with him. Even when we were kids, Juliett was always thinking about Romeo and wanted to be with Romeo, it was like no matter how much he hurt her, she could never give up on him.

And he was just an egoistic selfish jerk that didn't respect girls nor their feelings and he so didn't deserve a girl like Juliett. But, neither did I. So I did nothing, but just stay back and watch them.

I was surprised though when Romeo didn't venture out and kiss her then and actually retreated back; that was so unlike him.

"God, you're such a girl!" he commented then.

"Ugh, well, what else do you expect? Other than me acting, talking and wearing clothes like a girl, I am pretty much all female!"

"Ah, I remember when you were a little girl, you had those big 'ole eyes and, ooh, remember that time when your mom put you into that pink frilly thing she called a dress?!" Romeo started guffawing loudly.

"Well, you had a big head; you're 'prince' outfit wouldn't even go down past your face. It just hung there!" Juliett scoffed back. "And I have no idea what those girls ever saw in you."

"Hey, at least I had good looks."

I have no idea how one thing turned into another, because one minute they were play fighting; next, they were falling all over each other; then, they started bringing up old memories; and finally, they're now looking depressed over something one of them said?
