ForeverAfandom
Romeo is different. However, in Romeo's case, this difference is dangerous, and possibly deadly. He is the only son of the Lord Montague, and he is expected to uphold not only tradition, but the family name.
After a bloody skirmish and heartfelt threat from the Prince of Verona, Lord Montague and Lord Capulet agree that the best way to end their warring is to become one as a family. Meaning Romeo is now promised to Juliet, the only heir of the Capulet household.
. . .
Mercutio has always been a dreamer, and yet the cousin of Prince Escalus has never believed in love. That is until he meets Romeo, one who believes in love as the Friar believes in God.
The two grow to be fast friends and soon learn that there is more to life than heritage. How much are they willing to risk to not only defy their family and the law, but the way, it seems, everybody has lived for forever.
**This does not follow the cannon story or even much of the plot of the original Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. It does contain prominent gay content, if that upsets you, you do not have to read this.
I will not be writing in the common 'Shakespearean style' of writing.
All characters belong to the great William Shakespeare.
