"Let me be your Romeo to your Juliet."
"They ended up killing themselves."
"You're really one hard to impress."
It costs ball and chain for Julie Angeles-Colt to come up in front of Ross Maystower and end everything they had built three years ago, back in high school. Nonetheless, Julie and Ross' love story was unlike William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, a little bit different, to be exact.
But it takes a hell lot more than a poetic-love incident to make them realize that maybe, in an alternative universe, Romeo and Juliet wasn't meant to be.
And perhaps, it may just takes a boy, an accidentally monthly-date, and a play to realize that this is an amour story which occurs between 'Juliet' and someone else.

Luck May Love Us
To be honest, this story is actually my work for English class. In Unit 4, we have to go through Shakespeare and read Romeo and Juliet. We then would have either draw a comic, write a script, or a novella (short novel) base on the play, like take the basic of it. My friend - who help me edited for my other story - and I decided to do a novella since I already have experience in writing, and she believes that I can write. Since this also count at one of my work, I think why not upload it. Author note: In this project, we have to use a history accurate, a.k.a real world stuff. So thing that you hear in this story is real life fact. These event and rule certainly did once happen in the past. Also, I put mature tag because there are some really dark scene at the end.

I knew what I was going to do, and I needed all the courage I could muster up. As my brother's thumb goes down to take the photo I suddenly turn my head, close my eyes, and kiss Dalton right on the cheek. Dalton is known as a "rockstar" playing shows every night in the biggest cities. Juliet is a wallflower ballerina in a small town. What happened when their world collide? And what will happen when someone from Daltons life tries to take what's rightfully his? An even bigger twist, you get to decide the ending. This was originally FacFiction that I changed into a sort of kind of legitimate story. I started it in high school and my 24 year old self is trying desperately to fix it because I've written two sequels to it as an adult. I'll also be publishing them once this one is fully published.

Trigger warnings: ⚠️ Eating disorders (I've experienced) ⚠️ Bipolar disorder (I did my best on the research) ⚠️ Child abuse (I've witnessed) ⚠️ Low self esteem (I've experienced) ⚠️A bit of self harm from another character (I've experienced) ⚠️Miscarriages (I've witnessed) If there are any that I've missed feel free to let me know!Complete
