Fairytale Romances are so overrated. They don't exist, and they never will. Girl meets boy, boy goes out of his way to show that he loves her, and she marries him. There's a villain somewhere in there, but it really depends on the story, but anyway, the boy and girl live happily ever after. Boring and Predictable
Then there is Romeo and Juliet, where they both die. That's not very realistic either, but why do I care? I honestly prefer to be alone in my room with music blaring, but that's not exactly going to happen.
I am one of the most unromantic people ever, and when I'm assigned Juliet in my School's huge production of Romeo and Juliet. To my fortune, Romeo happens to be the senior heartthrob Tucker, not to mention that my evil stepsisters have a HUGE obsession with him.
So now, I have to pretend to be in love with a guy who's so not in my league, has lots of friends, and is mostly in the school papers.
That's just a recipe for awkward and disaster.

I do not take credit for any of Shakespeare's works, though I do use quotes from Romeo and Juliet, that is not mine, nor are any fairytale references, but everything else is!

Violet's Delight
"Well then. That's the first time a girl has ever rejected my close proximity," he said, eyes ablaze with a playful fire. "You better get used to it," I retorted as I spun on my heel and headed for the school doors that led to the outside. "I've never met anyone like you before," he called after me, this time, not coming after me. "I know, Romeo. I'm a special little snowflake," I called back, not turning around. "You got the 'little' part right there, Princess!" he shouted after me. I threw up my middle finger back to him and heard him laugh as I exited out the doors rather dramatically. ... I'm tired of all those high school stories about a straight-A girl student with the perfect life who falls for the stereotypical Mr. Bad Boy who wears leather black jackets and only has a soft spot for her. That's not how the real world works, sweetheart. I may look like a damsel, but I'm never in distress. ... Not me making fun of the "she's not like every other girl" trope <3 o.o :)) I like to think I'm funny. After all: #3 in amusement 10/22/22 #1 in banter 10/31/22 #3 in friendship 11/7/22Complete

Until Bruno left for ten years. Although Elena was heartbroken, she moved on. That is, until he comes back. "Antes dijiste todas esas cosas lindas sobre mi, pero en realidad, eres mi mariposa." He whispers while continuing to dance with me. "I don't know why I said the butterfly thing. Was it stupid?" I continue to talk quietly as we sway. "No, not at all. Butterflies are strong, beautiful, and miraculous insects. Just like you. Minus the insect part, obviously. Without them, nature would fall apart. Without you, I would fall apart. I don't think I say enough how much you mean to me." He smiles at me with the most beautiful look in his eyes.

My Girl
Cal Jackson's new life as a rockstar fails to account for one thing: the existence of the girl he loves. ***** "What are you thinking about?" she asks. "A song," I say. "A new song." I stare at the ocean as I sing the song that I wrote, something that comes from the darkest place of my heart. "Do you even know how gifted you are?" she whispers. "You're destined to be someone big, Cal." "Really?" "Yeah." ***** She's perfect in every way. Beautiful. Smart. Her bright future is right there in front of her eyes. While here I am. Ruined. No college, let alone a future. Just an image of a wannabe rockstar with tattoed arms and an old guitar. I knew that our story would be no less than that tragic Romeo and Juliet shit the moment I laid my eyes on her, but still, I can't resist her. The moment she whispers my name, "Cal," I lose all sanity. She becomes my melody, my lyrics, the song that keeps echoing in my ears. People call her Mia. I call her my Amy, her name crafted above my beating heart, tattoed on my skin. Amelia Davis is my girl. Mine. And only mine. ***** THE JACKSONS BOOK #1 © 2021 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.
