I may be different, but I love who I am
Alexis is very much a tomboy. She's tough and strong and isn't afraid to get dirty. She's very strong-willed and once she gets her mind set on soemthing, it's hard to change her mind. She's also independent and self-reliant. She doesn't need people always around her, she likes doing somethings on her own. She likes being alone and thinking. Alexis is very confident of herself and her skills but she doesn't brag. She speaks her mind no matter what and is very bold and brave. She loves animals, especially horses. She hates the popular kids at school and has to restrain herself form snapping at them. Alexis also loves to write and is an excellent artist. She draws pictures of nature, people, and animals. She also writes stories but doens't like to show people them. She keeps them hidden under her bed. She also loves to play sport and get down and dirty.
I've seen more then you can imagine
Alexis is the youngest of the Storm family. She has an older sister named Allison who is a year older then her. She grew up a good life on her family's estate and was taught to hate the family across the street. When she was little, she didn't see why they hated each other. She spent most of her time with the family's horses riding and taking care of them. She attended a private school her entire life with her sister. Alexis was always very smart and got top marks in school. Her parents were very proud of her and Alexis liked that. Se always did her best to make her parents proud. Even as she got older, she never fully understood why they were supposed to hate the other family but she acted like she did. Although she never fully hated them. Though, to stay loyal to her family, she pretended she did.
Alexis's life was simple until her father lost his job a few months ago. The company he worked for was slowly losing money and they let her father go. It then became really hard to afford the estate and sending the girls to private school. The school, luckily, let the girl finish the year but wouldn't let them return in the fall unless the family could pay. So, Alex and her sister were sent to a public school owned by none other then the family across the street. Alexis has been there for almost a month and hates the place. She is constantly teased and treated badly because of who her family is. One girl especially treats her horribly. Although, she can't fight back because she's apart of Romeo's group, the eldest son of the family across the street. So Alexis deals with the torture everyday and has learned not to care. Theses people really are jerks and she has learned that what they think don't care. As long as she done well in school and makes it through the year alive and with no problems then she'll be happy. hopefully that will be possible.

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
I may be different, but I love who I am
Allison is definitely your average popular high school girl. The one with all the friends and the great looks. But that's only because she tries so hard to be liked by everyone. She's a hopeless romantic and dreams of having her own little fairytale romance. All she needs is the right guy. She can be very protective of her sister because she knows what it's like to be hurt. She doesn't want her sister to make the same stupid mistakes as her. Many believe Allison can be such an airhead, but she's truly really smart. Though her intelligence can never compare to her sister's. Sometimes she feels like the younger sister and she looks up to Juliet. She tries hard to please her family and to please others. She joined the cheerleading squad since she knew it would gain her instant popularity and some new friends. But she has a few trust issues and some of the girls on her squad are the reason she has issues in the first place. She's really just a bubbly and fun-loving girl that's in love with the idea of being in love.
I've seen more then you can imagine
Allison is the oldest sister in the Storm family and she loves her little sister dearly. Though for quite some time, Allison was the only child and she would always get whatever she wanted. That all changed when Alexis was born and she had to share. After a while though, Allison was used to it. Her and sister get along well at times and she couldn't ask for a better family. She's grown up hating the family across the street just because she was raised to. Even though deep down she really doesn't know why she hates them. She was born to love not to hate. She used to go to a private school and struggled to get good grades. It did always anger her to see Alexis with perfect grades and getting praise from her parents while she herslef struggled so hard just to keep up. She doesn't believe that she's as wonderful as Alexis, but she has her own uniqueness. Unfortunately, their father had lost his job which made many changes. They were beginning to lose money so her and her sister were forced to go to the private school owned by their rivals. She can tell her sister hates it, but Allison has grown to it even though it's only been a month.
Allison is a people person and is very outgoing. So it wasn't hard for her to make friends. She eventually joined the cheerleading team as well which really helped. Though she does get teased by Romeo and his little friends. She knows not to care about what him and his snotty friends think. She only cares about how she looks at herself. Though when they tease Alexis, she doesn't tolerate it. She looks out for her sister and she will do anything she can to protect her. She swears that one day the Best Friend [F] is going to take things too far and Allison is not afraid to fight her. She's seen people like the Best Friend [F] before and she honestly can't stand them. As for the other two, she doesn't care what they think but she will not back down without an argument.

Nate grew up in this city and has been best friends with Romeo since grade one.
He's been best friends with The Best Friend [F] since grade three. Nate and Romeo go way back and they do almost everything together.
Nate is hesitant to show Romeo the sweeter side of him. Nate loves Romeo like a brother. Which, is saying a lot because Nate is an only child.
Even though he doesn't really show his sweet side, Nate is an amazing friend.

Madelyn is very preppy and popular. Her family is very rich. She is at the top of the food chain and thinks she is amazing. At times she can be very self-centered and she will not take "no" for an answer unless she wants it to be. She will stop at nothing to get what she wants. She is very cunning and sly. She is a major flirt and knows how to wrap people around her finger to get what she wants.
I've seen more then you can imagine
Madelyn didn't have a lot of friends until she met Romeo in third grade. Ever since then, she has become a whole new person. She used to be nice and sweet and quiet. Now she is the exact opposite of that. She, Romeo, and Best Friend [M] have been inseparable ever since. She has always been very protective of Romeo and her other friends and it would pain her to see anything bad happen to them. She enjoys picking on Alexis and seeing her just standing there, defenseless and helpless. She likes it that she is superior than her and she can get away with things like that without the fear of getting caught.

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
I may be different, but I love who I am
Derek may seem stuck up to some people, but isn't that everyone's judgement of rich people? Newsflash: he's NOT. He has a very kind heart and stands true for what he believes in. Derek loves his family, but he can be disgusted with them at times! Derek can be very stubborn, and always stands up for what he believes in. He gets along with most people, but there's some people he hates, like bullies. He's always been known to beat the bullies up, and no one messes with the Drake boy. He loves playing sports, and is very well muscled due to captain of the football team, co captain of the wrestling team, and is often working out. He's hot, frankly. He is kind of the jock at the school, but not in personality. Derek likes the smaller things in life, like nature and wildlife. He ejoys photography, and spends a lot of his time outside, taking excellent pictures. He also loves his border collie, Kiera, and loves playing with her. He loves dogs, and also enjoys horses as well. He's a good all around person, against many popular beliefs. He may be popular at school, but he's not your average popular kid. He values people's opinions, and never likes to have a lot of attention. Unfortunately, that usually doesn't work, because his parents consider him a star and want him in the spotlight. Derek hates it, but can never tell his parents. He fights his own battles, but can't find the courage to tell his parents his problems with everything.
I've seen more then you can imagine
Derek has had a pretty good life. He grew up yes, hating the othre family and not understanding it, but he also found the beautiful little things in life. His parents owned a prestigious riding stable outside of town, and bought Derek a world class chestnut Thoroughbred. His horse was high strung, yes, but Derek could handle him. Derek learned to ride and compete on his horse- named Hercules, for his size and strength. Unfortunately, Hercules was forced to retire after an accident on the jumping course. Derek's parents knew his talent on horseback and immediately bought him a two year old Thoroughbred mare to train. The boy named her Jasmine, but calls her Jas. The mare is four years old now, and is a champion hunter and dressage horse. When Derek's not shooting photos or playing with his dog, Kiera, he's riding Jas. He owns his own Dodge Ram 3500 dually pickup truck, and a six horse trailer with living quarters. Sometimes, to escape, Derek will enter shows many miles away from home and let his family go, and usually come back with some blue ribbons and championship trophies. But the equestrian escape doesn't last long.
Derek doesn't understand the feud- fully. He knows the tale behind it, but doesn't understand why his parents won't let it go. The two families have been at it for years. But his parents just won't let the past go. In Derek's opinion, people should forgive and forget- but only sometimes. He understands that it's hard to forget, but everyone deserves to be given the chance to be forgiven. He doesn't understand the feud much. He knows the story behind it all, but why has it gone on for so long? That's what puzzles him. He's learned to pretend to hate the other family, but truly, he doesn't. He thinks they should forgive each other and be happy! But unfortunately, he can't admit it. He just goes with the flow, but hates every minute of it. Derek's in the 'popular crowd' at school, and somewhat enjoys it. He gets the perks of the school, but he hates seeing the others being picked on. His best friend, Nate, is very close to him. Derek feels he can admit anything to Nate, but still hasn't talked to him about the new girls yet. Derek really wants them to have a good time and get along, but unfortunately, Madelyn, his other best friend, has found it fun to tease them. Derek absolutely hates it, especially since he likes the new girls. They seem nice. Derek somewhat hopes that he can get to know the girls, but unfortunately, they seem a bit reserved and plus, Madelyn finds it fun to tease Alexis. But that makes Derek mad, and he really wants to stop it! But anything could happen. . . < Table of Contents >

   I'll spend forever wondering if you knew ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
XXWe were both young, when I first saw you
XXI close my eyes and the flashback starts
XXI'm standing there, on a balcony in summer air
XXI see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns
XXI see you make your way through the crowd
XXYou say hello, little did I know
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, "Please don't go"
And I said
Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say yes
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
So I sneak out to the garden to see youXX
We keep quiet, because we're dead if they knewXX
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little whileXX
Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter,XX
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet" XX
But you were everything to meXX
I was begging you, "Please don't go"XX
And I saidXX

Juliet ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
XXRomeo save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
XXThis love is difficult, but it's real
XXDon't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
XXIt's a love story, baby, just say yes
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said
Romeo save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting, for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
Marry me Juliet, you'll never have to be aloneXX
I love you, and that's all I really knowXX
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dressXX
It's a love story, baby just say yesXX
Cause we were both young when I first saw youXX
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛ Please don't be in love with someone else Please don't have somebody waiting on you ┏XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The brunette opened her brown eyes and glanced around her room. She reached out her hand and shut her alarm off quickly, the beeping was very annoying. Alexis Storm pushed the overs off her bed and dragged herself up. The red numbers of the clock read 7:30. Alright, she had about 15 minutes to get to school. That was more then enough time. The brunette made her way slowly over to her closest and pulled out the first thing she saw, a black T-shirt and navy jeans. The girl quickly took off the tee and pants she slept in and slid her cloths on. Alexis then grabbed her black boots and slid them on before heading into the bathroom. Unlike most girls, Alexis didn't wear any makeup unless she had to. Although, that, and the way she dressed, hadn't gained her many points at her new school, not that that would have helped. Alexis was a Storm and the Storms hated the Drakes. It was like a tradition, each child was taught to hate the other family. Alexis had known about this feud since she was young. It had never bothered Alexis before, not even that the Drake family lived across the street, but now it did. Now she, and her older sister, had to attend the public school owned by the Drake family. Yeah for her! At the school, she was hated, teased, and didn't fit in at all. It wasn't that her parents wanted to send her, but it was all they could afford since her father lost his job. Alexis hoped her father could find a new job but it had almost been five months and he hadn't had any luck. The teen sighed and ran her brush through her hair a few times. Her father was still furious that his baby girls were going to the enemy's school but Mother had been calmed him down a little. Alexis still hadn't told them about how she was being treated since she didn't want them to worry. She had even sworn her sister, Allison, to secrecy.
Normally, Alexis would have been able to deal with these people. She would have yelled back, punched them, or possibly done both, but she couldn't do that here. Nope, this school was ruled by Derek Drake and his little brother. And Alexis had the best luck because the girl that tormented her the most was one of Derek's best friend. So yeah, she could fight back, if she wanted to be hated forever. All she could do was hold her tongue and take it. She had learned not to care, but the girl, Madelyn, still pushed her buttons and was getting closer and closer to getting a good punch in the face. The teen was snapped out of her thoughts as someone knocked on her door. "Lexie, are you up yet?" her mother called, using the nickname that Alexis only let her family use. Other people knew her Alexis or Lex, not Lexie. That was reserved for her family and only them. She put her brush down and walked out of her bathroom. "Yes, Mother," she replied and heard her mother move back down the hall. That was what they called their parents, Allison and her. Mother and father, not Dad or Mom, Mother and Father. Alexis glanced around her room, grabbed her bag and her leather jacket, and headed out of her room. She walked down the elegant hall and spotted her sister's door was still closed. Lazy bum, did she want to be late. Alexis stopped at her sister's door and knocked loudly. "Hurry it up or you'll be late!" she called to Allison and then headed down the stairs. She spotted her Father in his study on the phone and decided not to bother him. She grabbed a muffin and an apple from a basket on the table, grabbed her keys, and headed out the front door. She slid on her leather jacket as she closed the front door behind her. Alexis jogged down the walkway to a black motorcycle in the driveway. She had had it since she turned sixteen, it had been a birthday present from her parents. The brunette slid her helmet on and revved the engine. She lifted her foot off of the pavement and sped off down the driveway. She drove out of the gate that marked the entrance to the Storm's land and drove down the road. Her gaze glanced toward the two large fences on either side of the road, one for her family and one for the Drakes. She sighed and shook her head. Alexis still didn't understand the feud or see the point but she didn't question her family. It didn't matter anyways, it wasn't like she would ever become friends with the Drake family.
The school was only a few minutes from her house and Alexis reached it in no time. She pulled into a parking spot, turned the motorcycle off and slid her black helmet off. Well here she was, the torture chamber. The teen slowly began to walk toward the steps that lead to the doors. It was a fancy school, a very fancy school, but ti was still a public school so everyone could attend. Even her. She had heard a few kid talking about a protect in English and wondered if it was true. If it was, who would the teacher, Mr. Beck, assign her to work with. If there was one thing she learned about Mr. Beck in her one here, it was that he rarely let you do protects on your own. Not that that went well with Alexis since she was more of an independent girl. Besides, she had two people in that class that she hated. Derek and Madelyn. Hopefully Mr. Beck wouldn't put her with one of them, otherwise it would be the worse protect ever. Alexis was broken from her thoughts when a kid bumped into her. Alexis stumbled and glanced toward the boy. "I'm so so-" he began and stopped when he saw her face. "Watch where you are going!" he snapped instead and Alexis just rolled her eyes. Jerk. If he had a brain he'd see that he had bumped into her. Then again, he probably knew he did and was going to apologize but then he saw who it was. Even though she had only been there a month, Alexis had gotten used to that kind of treatment. Sighing, She continued up the steps and walked into school. The brunette walked quickly down the halls to her locker, ignoring the glances form people. She really hated this place. Even though it was torture, when her parents asked how her day was, she simply smiled and said it had been okay. Alexis didn't want to worry her parents, they had enough to worry about. She could deal with her own problems by herself. The girl reached her locker and quickly opened it, stuffing her books inside. She still had a few minutes before first period so she decided to just relax at her locker. She grabbed her iTouch and put her headphones in. Scrolling down her music, she picked out Play On by Carrie Underwood, one of her favorite singers. Alexis leaned against the locker next to hers and listened to the music, trying to block out the world around her.

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇    Out on the street corner
xxJust like every morning I sit here

Romeo
╚══════════════╝
The sandy brown haired boy groaned as his alarm went off and he opened his riveting blue eyes. He slapped the clock and swung himself out of bed, holding himself against the mattress. He could hear his younger brother bustling around and groaned. 7:30. Time to get to school. He stood and ran his large hands through his hair, ruffling it. Then he smothed it down, and his hair was done. Derek yanked open his closet, his eyes scanning his selection. His parents insisted he look his best at school, since he was the king, But frankly, Derek didn't want to be king. He disliked popularity. In the spotlight, all the time. All the newer kids hating him for no reason. It was just too much sometimes! Derek reached into his closet and grabbed a crimson tee with AERO written across it. He pulled it over his tanned bare chest, his large, muscular arms showing nicely. The guy was buff, frankly. He worked out a lot, and he was hot. Derek Drake: captian of the football team, king of the school, and total hottie! That's what the girls knew him as. Grumpy as he was in the morning, he pulled on a pair of dark blue jeans, then stuck his feet into a pair of black Converse. He quickly grabbed his wallet and cell phone, sticking them in his pocket. He checked himself in the mirror once more, then headed out of his room.
As the Drake boy walked down the luxurious and seemingly endless hallway, he pounded on his brother's door. "Let's go! I'm not waiting forever!" Derek called through the door, and he heard his brother grab his bag. Derek continued down the hall, and noticed his parents were already up. He entered the kitchen through swinging black and white doors, to be greeted by soft light from the kitchen. His mother handed him a bagel with blueberry cream cheese smeared across it, and the boy thanked his mother. "Anytime, sweetie. Have a good day!" his mother called after him, doing the same for Derek's little brother. Derek grabbed his truck keys and swung his messenger bag over his shoulder, then pulled open the back door. The truck he had was specially equipped for button start up. Much to his distaste, his parents got it for him. When would they see that he didn't want to be pampered and spoiled?! He hated it! Either way, the boy was stuck with it. He pressed the button and heard his Ford midnightblue F350 pickup roar to life, and then hopped in. His brother followed, in the passenger side. The truck smelled of pine trees and maple leaves. Derek loved nature; he tried to keep it wherever he went. He backed the truck down the driveway, and then roared off down the road.
The big blue pickup entered the school parking lot, taking a spot closest to the school. The Drake older son shut off the truck, hopped out, grabbed his bag, and then locked it once his brother had gotten out. Slinging his bag over his shoulder, he pulled out his iPod and put it on Keith Urban's 'Til Summer Comes Around. The king of the school may seem "cool", but he liked country music! Derek shoved open the doors and was immediately greeted by giggles and whispers. Rolling his eyes, he hurried down the hall to his locker, people greeting him with friendly hellos and the occasional, "Was up, dawg?" Derek ignored them. He quickly opened his locker and shoved his bag in, keeping his iPod out. He had English first. Ugh. He'd heard that Mr. Beck was assigning a project. Ugh, and with partners! The one thing Derek Drake did NOT do was group work. He worked independently. He hated depending on others! Shrugging off his grim thoughts, he grabbed his books and slammed his locker shut. The muscular sandy brown haired boy started down the hall to the commons area, where his friends would be waiting. As he walked past with his head up, he saw Alexis. Alexis Storm, a girl from the family he was taught to hate. But really, he didn't. He despised his parents for holding the grudge, honestly. He faintly, only slightly, smiled at her, but he didn't wait to see if she saw or not. She hated him, and he was supposed to hate her. So why greet her at all?
Pushing on, the Drake boy pushed into the commons area, heading to the square in the center, where his friends awaited. He greeted them, some by fist pounds, some by hand shakes, some by head bobs. He singled out his two best friends: Nate an Madelyn. He wrapped his arms around Madelyn in a friendly hug, then clapped Nate on the back. Derek grinned, putting his books down. He pulled his iPod earbuds out of his ears and wrapped them around the touch screen, and shoved it into his back pocket. He grinned at Madelyn and Nate, his foot cocked. "Anyone hear what the project is for Beck's class? Sometimes, I swear that's when I really want special treatment," Derek laughed, his radiant blue eyes meeting Madelyn's, then Nate's. He turned and checked his bag, making sure his camera was there. The Nikon megapixel camera was sitting in his back, unharmed. Derek never went anywhere without his camera. It was one of his passions: he loved to take photos. And he had a knack for it, too. He coudl take excellent pictures. Some of friends, some of nature. But his favorite was dogs. His border collie, Kiera, was at home. The Drake boy hoped that his parents would find time to play with her. Frankly, Derek was afraid what the 6 month old puppy would do if she didn't vent her energy. But it was time for school, not puppy days. Derek checked the clock: 7:45. He turned his attention back to his friends, still dwelling on Mr. Beck's project. What was it about? Who would he have to work with? ╔══════════════════╗ XCheck yes Juliet
XAre you with me?
XRain is falling down on the sidewalk
XI won't go until you come outside
XI'll keep tossing rocks at your window
XThere's no turning back for us tonight

I'm standing right in front of you

I'm standing right in front of you

Alexis hummed softly along to the song and pushed her hair out of her face. Unlike most people who were teased and hated, Alexis wasn't ashamed of who she was. She knew who she was and she liked, no loved, being who she was. She was strong, independent, and a tomboy at heart. She probably would have joined the sports teams here but she didn't want to spend any more time in this place. Most of the people who walked by didn't even notice her and the ones that did gave her hard glares r whispered something to their friends. It took everything Alexis had not to go right up to everyone and yell at them. At first, she had been okay with the small glares and teasings, but know the teens were getting bolder and did it more often. Alexis couldn't walk down a hallway without getting glared at two times, if she was lucky. She wanted to fight back and give these people a piece of her mind but she couldn't. And Lex hated that. She hated not being able to speak her mind and just having to stand there dealing win these kids. But what other choice did she have? She had absolutely no power here, she was the main enemy of the school. And this was all because her parents held a stupid grudge. A stupid, little, worthless grudge. Alexis sighed and glanced down the hallway. People were slowly leaving the hallway for class. She probably head to English, hopefully she'd find out about this project and who she was working with.
The brunette was taking her headphones out when she heard it. So he was finally here. The girls around here were giggling and whispering like crazy animals. Alexis didn't even have to turn around to know who it was. Honestly, she didn't know why these girls were so crazy about Derek. So he looked good, big deal. Did half of them even know him or how he acted? Nope, didn't think so. Sighing, the teen grabbed her books and shut her locker. She was just turning around when she spotted Derek smiling at her. She blinked a few times, making sure she was seeing propery. Had Derek Drake, eldest son of the family that hated her family, just smile at her? Yes, yes he had. Alexis tilted her head, puzzled. What was that for? Didn't Derek hate her just like pretty much everyone else in this school? Alexis shrugged and headed off to Mr. Beck's class. She shouldn't even care why Derek smile day her,he probably just hadn't recognized her and thought she was someone else.
Lex walked calmly into English class and glanced around the room. Her English class were full of Derek's friends, including his two best friends. Taking a deep breath, Alexis walked forward, pushing through the teens that were standing in the middle of the rows. She ignored the glares and whispers, holding her head high. She was ashamed, she was scared, and she wasn't going to be pushed around by these people. She took her seat in the back of the class and put her stuff down. The desks next to her and in front of her were both empty. So she was basically on her own in the back of the room. Oh well. Sometimes, Alexia wished that Allison and her were twins but they weren't. Allison was in the grade ahead of her so Alexis had to deal with these kids alone. Unlike her, her sister had made out just fine at their new school. She had joined cheerleading, made lots of friends, and had avoided being teased a lot. Alexis, on the one r hand, was am outsider and was hit full force with teasing and nasty remarks. Though the girl was strong and ha learned to not care. If she didn't care then what they said couldn't Hirt her. Besides, she didn't see herself getting a friend anytime soon so this teasing would go on for a while. She'd be alone through it all but she'd survive. She wouldn't back down, she wouldn't give up, and she wouldn't stop being herself. She'd make it through the year and pass with top marks.

Derek checked his phone once more. Sometimes he got paranoid about time. he hated being late! He turned to his friends, nodding his head toward the English wing. "C'mon guys. Let's get to class," Derek said with a mock eye roll. He started down the hall, ignored the giggles and whispers that came from the girls he passed. It was true. Nearly everyone in the school had a crush on Derek Drake. Everyone wanted to be friends with Derek Drake. Oh, he's so great! Oh, isn't he dreamy! I'd give anything to be friends- or even more than that- with Derek! The Drake boy had heard it all. He hated it! He didn't want to be drooled over by girls. Some, yes, were okay. But the whole school?! No way! Derek made his way through the hall and slipped through the doors, his frosty blue eyes looking over the classroom. He smiled at some of his semi friends, then heard dreamy sighs from half the giggly girls. Rolling his eyes, he slid into a seat in about the middle of the class, on the far left side. His enchanting sapphire eyes swept the class, registering who was here and who wasn't here. He saw Alexis in her usual spot in the back of the room, and then moved on. He turned back around and analyzed the board, trying to guess what the project was. And who in the world would he be paired with?! The sandy brown haired boy hoped that he'd be with Madelyn or ate, his two closest friends. But with Mr. Beck, it was improbable.
Derek pulled out a thick book from his binder: the trilogy of Lord of the Rings. He'd probably read it a million times, but every time it was always spellbinding. The Drake boy got it for Christmas when he was twelve, and he was seventeen now. He'd had it for five years, and it looked good as new. His eyes were locked on the page. Derek Drake, sport jock and king of the school, actually read?! Many people found that as hard to believe as they did him liking country music. He liked pop and rock somewhat, but he found country a bit more likable. Derek had his jaw set in a stubborn way, the way he always was when he was concentrating or just being stubborn. His eyebrows, a shade lighter than his hair, were knitted together as he read. He sat in his seat, leaning back in a half slouch. His feet were set apart underneath the table, one hand holding the book and the other turning page by page. Derek hadn't even looked up to see whether his friends had come in or not, or whether the girls were still giggling over him. He was completely entranced by Aragorn locked in deadly battle with Uruk-hai. The seventeen year old was in some ways, a nerd. But what's bad about being smart and popular? Derek looked up as his phone vibrated: it was time for class to start. The sandy brown haired boy shut his book ad shoved it beneath his books, shutting the midnight blue binder he carried with all his supplies in it. His eyes alert but still bored, he waited for class to start. ╔══════════════════╗ XCheck yes Juliet

The Best Friend [F]An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Madelyn Marie Castellos
That's my name. Don't wear it out. {I've never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go
Till you open the door
There's so much more
I've never seen it before} {I was trying to fly
But I couldn't find wings
Then you came along
And you changed everything}
{You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier} {Watched from a distance as you
Made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know
How that would feel
And you made it so real} Madelyn groaned as her alarm clock went off. She moaned and rolled over onto her stomach. I think I'll just stay here for another half-hour, she thought. "Madelyn!" her mother called from the kitchen, a floor below. "Hurry up and get ready or you'll be late for school!" Madelyn groaned but obeyed. She rolled onto her back and pushed herself up from her comfy mattress so she was sitting. She gently slid off her bed and landed on her carpeted floor with a thud! She glanced at her clock. It rad 7:30. "I'm never going to be able to get ready in time!" she exclaimed dramatically. She grabbed her brush off of her pale pink desk and ran it through her messy dirty-blonde hair, trying to quickly but thoroughly get all of the knots out. She walked into her exceedingly-large closet and rummaged through her clothes, rack to rack. She finally chose a black sequined tank top and bleached jeans which were ripped at the knee. She grabbed a pair of beige cowgirl boots and white socks. She put them one before leaving her room.
Madelyn entered the bathroom next to her room and looked into the clean, smudge-free mirror. She plugged in the flat iron, not bothering to shower. I'll shower tonight, she thought. She gently picked up the flat iron, being careful not to touch the hot part. She had done it once accidentally, and she didn't want a repeat of that again. She slid the two plates around a section of her hair and gently ran it down to the tip, making sure it was all straight. She repeated that for the rest of her hair, being extremely careful when doing the back of her hair. She sighed and ran a slender hand through her hair, making it all silky. She grabbed her make-up bag/ She pulled out a slim container of mascara, a tube of lip gloss, some blush, blue eyeshadow and eyeliner. She decided to work with her eyes first. She gently applied the eyeliner, not wanting it to smudge all over her face. She applied then the blue eyeshadow and then the mascara. She blinked a few times and then put on the lip gloss and then the blush. She smiled in the mirror and took a few breaths.
Madelyn headed downstairs and was greeted by her mother preparing breakfast. "Madelyn, you better hurry up now or else you'll be late," her mother told her sternly. "Don't worry, Mom," Madelyn assured her, "I'll be on time. I always am," she promised and bored herself a cup of coffee into a to-go cup. "Aren't you going to eat something?" Mrs. Castellos asked. "It's all about the coffee, Mom," she responded as she headed out the door, grabbing her keys and her bag. She walked outside and shut the door behind her. She clicked her keys and her black Audi beeped. She walked down the steps and opened her car door. She slid in onto the driver's seat and dropped her bag onto the passenger's seat. She placed her coffee carefully into the cup holder and entered the key into the ignition. Her car roared with life as she back up out of the driveway.
A few minutes later, she drove into the school's parking lot and searched for a spot. She found one close to the school entrance. She took a big gulp of her coffee before she got out. She reached over to grab her back from the neighbouring seat and tossed her keys into it. She slid out of her car and clicked a button. Her car beeped and locked. She tugged on the handel, just to make sure it was locked. She trotted across the lot and up the stone steps. She entered the doors of the school and headed up the stairs on the way to her first class. She stopped and talked with some friends on the way there. She smiled at Derek and Nate and listened in on the new gossip. English assignment? she thought, but shrugged it off. Just before the bell rang, she headed off to her first class. She walked in the open doorway and took her seat next to Derek. She asked him, "What's all this talk about an English assignment or something?" {You showed me something that I couldn't see
Opened my eyes and you made me believe}
{You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier, oh}
{Baby, you showed me what living is for
I don't want to hide anymore} {You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier, oh} You say goodbye, I say hello.

I'll spend forever wondering if you knew ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
XXWe were both young, when I first saw you
XXI close my eyes and the flashback starts
XXI'm standing there, on a balcony in summer air
XXI see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns
XXI see you make your way through the crowd
XXYou say hello, little did I know
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, "Please don't go"
And I said
Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say yes
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
So I sneak out to the garden to see youXX
We keep quiet, because we're dead if they knewXX
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little whileXX
Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter,XX
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet" XX
But you were everything to meXX
I was begging you, "Please don't go"XX

XXDon't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
XXIt's a love story, baby, just say yes
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said
Romeo save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting, for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
Marry me Juliet, you'll never have to be aloneXX
I love you, and that's all I really knowXX
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dressXX
It's a love story, baby just say yesXX

Alexis pushed her brown hair behind her ear and stared out the classroom window. She sometimes just got lost in her thoughts, like she was escaping the real world. It was a reason that the brunette loved to write. It allowed her to express herself and create a new story. Her favorite type of stories to write were crime stories because what wasn't cool about dead bodies, serial killers, arsonists, kidnappings, and all that good bloody stuff? Alexis was really able to describe the crime scenes well, making sure to get down very single detail. It sometimes made her writings very grouse and unsettling, not that she cared. Though, she wouldn't recommend them for people with weak stomachs. Her room was filled with her notebooks which she organized by genre and then the main character. At the moment, she was writing a series of crime novels on a female detective and her team. She had a lot of fun writing it and always made sure to include some sort of twist right before telling who the murderer was. Sometimes Alexis spent hours in her room just writing. Although, she was very cautious about showing people her work, since it was all very personal to her. She hoped to one day publish her stories and become an author possibly. It was one of the reasons that English was one of her favorite classes, despite the fact that they always had to work in partners. Though, despite that, Mr. Beck was fairly cool for a teacher. he didn't give a lot of homework and always made sure the class was fun. He did get angry if the teen refused to listen and knew how to get the best out of his students, which Alexis liked.
The brunette glanced toward the front of class as Miss Princess walked in. Alexis held herself back from rolling her eyes, knowing it would only cause trouble. She looked at Derek and sighed. Sometimes she wondered how he could deal with Madelyn and all the other girls throwing themselves at him. Though, she bet he liked it. Alexis had never been popular before but it seemed everyone who was popular loved it. So she bet Derek did too. Alexis didn't like Madelyn, no that was incorrect. She hated her. The girl was a brat, in her mind, that always had to get her way. She thought she was the best and should get everything she wnated. Sometimes, Alexis wished she could do something to stop Madelyn from getting what she wnated, just once. Although that probably wasn't possible at all, just like she couldn't fight back when the girl teased her. Alexis opened her sketch book and began to draw a peaceful scene. She moved her pencil quickly across the paper, making the grass, trees, rocks, river, and a few animals. The picture was soon almost complete. The brunette then used her pencil and began to shade the picture so it was black and white. it was pretty good, not her best work since she did it quickly, but still good.
Alexis glanced up as Mr. Beck walked into the room. The teacher was in his mid-thirties and wore a blue collared shirt, black pants, and a black and blue tie. He walked calmly up to the board and wrote the word Shakespeare on it with blue expo marker. Alexis looked at the word on the white board and glanced around the room. She figured the protect, whatever they were doing, would have soemthing to do with Shakespeare. Alexis sighed and waited for Mr. beck to explain. "Good morning class! I'm sure you've all heard that we will be starting a project today. As usual, you will work in groups of two. For the project, you and your partner will read a play by Shakespeare and then do an oral presentation for the class about the play along with turning in a written paper that is at least three pages. I will assign you you're play and partner. Remember, these were chosen randomly," Mr. Beck explained and picked up a list that had been sitting on his desk. Alexis almost slapped herself. Stupid! The list had been on his desk the entire time! She could have easily peeked at it to find out her partner and the play they would be reading. Although, she probably wouldn't have gotten away with it. Some stupid kid would have probably told on her if she had looked at the list. So she just had to wait to find out who she was working with. As usual, Mr. beck started at the top of the list. Alexis didn't pay attention until he mentioned Nate's name, one of Derek's closest friends. "Nate Breath, you will be working with Madelyn Castellos and you shall be reading the play Macbeth," Mr. Beck said and Alexis let out a sigh of relief. Good, that meant she wouldn't be stuck with Nate or Madelyn. It felt good to knwo that, very good. Hopefully Mr. Beck put her with someone good, someone who wasn't a total jerk. Besides, if they got a good play then it wouldn't be all that bad. She hoped that she wasn't given Romeo and Juliet because she never found books or plays about love very interesting. Besides, things were looking good for her today. Two people she didn't want to work with were out of the way and the only person she wouldn't want to work with even more then Nate or Madelyn was- "Derek Drake, you and your partner will be reading the play Romeo and Juliet. And your partner is Alexis Storm," Mr. Beck said calmly.

Romeo
╚══════════════╝
The sandy brown haired boy watched silently as Mr. Beck entered the room and wrote Shakespeare on the board. He was able to guess the project: plays. He sighed very quietly; he hated doing reports or oral presentations! Or presentations in general! He really hoped he didn't get stuck with something gushy like Romeo and Juliet, and stuck with some girl that was completely infatuated with him and would always be gushing on him. He hated those kinds of things. What he really wished he could do was Beowulf, but that wasn't even by Shakespeare. But he loved the action in it; swordfighting, sorcery, treachery, all the good stuff! He jerked his thoughts back as he heard Nate's name. Macbeth. . . Derek hadn't heard of that one. He smiled and elbowed Madelyn lightly when he heard they'd be partners. He smiled at her, then began to ponder over who his partner would be, and his play. He was really hoping there was no gushy girl stuck with him-
Oh no. No, the girl that was his partner was not at all infatuated with him, or gushy. In fact, she hated him! Derek had to refrain with all his might to keep from slamming his head against the desk. Mr Beck put Derek Drake with Alexis Storm! Didn't he know of the hatred?! It wasn't that Derek hated Alexis, it just would not be pretty when his parents found out. btu Derek knew Alexis hated him. It was his school, he was the king, and it was his friends that were making fun of her and hurting her. What more did she need to hate him? Groaning silently to himself, he wished he could disappear. Romeo and Juliet with Alexis Storm?! Did Mr. Beck want himself and Derek killed? Oh god, this was a disaster! Forced work together, and they'd have to work together after school . . . Derek took a deep breath, but didn't turn to look at Alexis. She probably hated him more now. She'd be stuck with him or they'd fail the assingment. And she'd probably think he set this up, just to play with her. How much worse could this day get?
Derek looked at Mr. Beck, his ice blue eyes smoldering. He wasn't angry, just flustered. How was he going to work this? Or how was he and Alexis going to work this? If they were going to meet after school, it'd have to be a place neither of the families really go. Derek thought of something: Golden Meadow, his family's stable! It was on the other side of town, chosen for it's luxurious landscape and forest trails. Derek was the only one that went there; he always practiced with Jas after school. Maybe they could meet there? Derek would suggest it, if he lived through the first day of the project. . . Oh why, WHY did Mr. Beck do that?! It was putting both Derek and Alexis in horrible positions! Their families despised one another, and now they'd have to work together?! Working together on a huge romance, no less?! Running a large hand through his sandy brown hair, his blue eyes grew thoughtful as he leaned in the back of his seat. Would it really be all bad? He'd get to know her, and maybe they'd become friends. Either way, Derek didn't hate Alexis. He really didn't hate the Storms at all, really. He just pretended. And at least he'd get a chance to stop his friends from torturing the two Storm girls. Well, Alexis at least. Derek really didn't liek how she was treated, but he had no power over it. If people saw him defnding her, they'd start becoming suspiscious. And with his younger brother around, he couldn't afford that. Looking back up at Mr. Beck, Derek waited for further instructions. ╔══════════════════╗ XCheck yes Juliet

And you made it so real} Madelyn tried to listen to Mr. Beck, but it was too hard. He wasn't a fun teacher. Most of the time they just read boring stories. She began doodling on the inside back-cover of her notebook. It was one of her favorite past times to do in class. She pretended to listen to him drone on and on, never taking her eyes off of him. She never glanced down at her notebook. Her slender hand scrawled all over the thick cardboard. She wasn't the best artist, but she thought she was pretty good. Mr. Beck continued to explain the upcoming project they were doing in class. It was on a play written by Shakespeare. Ohhh, I hope Derek and I get Romeo and Juliet! she thought. She glanced sideways at him, and then averted her eyes back to the teacher.
Mr. Beck began reading out the groups of partners. Mr. Beck always assigned the partners, always in groups of two. She didn't pay much attention until he said her name. "Nate Breath, you will be working with Madelyn Castellos and you shall be reading the play Macbeth," the teacher said. I could've had worse, she thought. Madelyn looked at Nate and smiled at him for a brief second, then turned her attention back to the front of the room. Hmm ... Macbeth? I'll have to look that up, she thought. She listened intently to the groups of partners being called. None of them really meant much to her, but she wanted to see who Derek got stuck with. Not until she heard Mr. Beck. "Derek Drake, you and your partner will be reading the play Romeo and Juliet. And your partner is Alexis Storm," the man stated.
Madelyn clenched her pen so hard it nearly snapped in two. She looked back and forth between the two. She found she wasn't the only one. Everyone in town knew about the rivalry. But apparently Mr. Beck didn't care. She looked at Derek with a sympathetic look and then glared at Alexis in the back of the room. WHAT? Derek and Alexis? Romeo and Juliet? What?!?! she thought as Mr. Beck continued reading off the list of partners. Madelyn was breathing hard. She ran a hand through her hair. Is he oblivious to the situation here? she thought. She, Nate, and Derek exchanged a glance and they all seemed to be thinking the same thing. Whatever was going to happen, it was not going to be good. {You showed me something that I couldn't see
Opened my eyes and you made me believe}
{You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier, oh}
{Baby, you showed me what living is for
I don't want to hide anymore} {You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier, oh} You say goodbye, I say hello.
