her lover

Part 1

I had been sitting in the courtyard painting the little statutes that were going to sit in the garden when I heard a ruckus from over the big cobblestone wall that separated our house from the streets. I ran over to the wall and started climbing, once I had gotten to the top I saw Montague's family and my family the Capulet's fighting over who knows what. as I was looking over the wall I felt a rock start coming loose. I quickly grabbed the top of the wall as the rock fell. I tried moving my hand to get more stability so I could sit on the top of the wall but as I moved my hand I lost the grip I had of the wall, I fell to the ground with a thud. I let out quite a loud yelp as I hit the ground. the nurse came rushing towards me.

"darling what are you doing climbing the wall you should stick to your paintings; you are not some silly boy," she said while helping my off the floor.

"but Mrs I heard a ruckus outside the gates and just had to know what it was about" I muttered.

"Juliet, you don't want to let your curiosity get the better of you, that is what leads you to intercourse before marriage and possibly being married off to late, you want to be married off by at least 17." She said while packing up my paint as I sat on the ground. I got up and started walking off when the nurse turned around and she said

"by the way Juliet, the reason I came out here was to tell you that your mother wanted to talk to you. She is waiting in the living room for you." She turned back around to continue the cleaning up my paints. I walked in the house and up to the living room before I opened the door I straightened up my dress so I wouldn't get in trouble for looking indecent. I opened that door and to my surprise prince arch was there talking to my mother. I walked in and sat down across from them. My mother looked at me with a big smile on her face and said

"hi dear, this is prince arch, and he will be the one you are marrying in a couple of months." I looked at her than at him and back at her. " your joking right. I am only 15 and I don't even like men. They disgust me." I said with a bitter tone in my voice. She looked back at me a but now with a scowl on her face. Before she could say anything more I walked out of the room and up to my room. She seriously thinks she can control my life. she knows that I don't fancy men, I have told her this so many times. She keeps trying to set me up with different men, but I always refused. My father only tried to set me up once, but he saw up happy it made me, so he never tried again.

I sat at my window think of all the men that she has tried to set me up with but none of them will ever compare to addilyn. Addilyn was my best friend and we were also lovers but the only one that knew that was me, addilyn and the nurse. We were meeting today in the town square. We had matching dresses. Hers was a light pink while mine was blue. We hadn't seen each other In a couple of months because her parent had to on a business trip to Italy, while she stayed at her grandparents in Greece. We lived in the united kingdom so it wasn't a long flight, and we could keep contact threw Skype. I had been sitting in my room waiting for the text from addilyn to tell me she is on her way so I could set off. I heard my phone Buzz, so I got up and checked it. I had gotten a text from addilyn saying she is nearly there. I got up and ran downstairs past my mother and past the prince, that I assume was coming to try and persuade me to marry him.
