So... Um... Well... We were...Uh... Kinda reading Romeo and Juliet in class and I was talking to Kiki about what FMA characters would play who. Then the teacher was talking about how there were no actresses back in Shakespear's time, and that all female parts were played by young boys. So I'm like Juliet would SO be one of the Elric brothers! I was more thinking Al, but... Well this story is what happened... A SLIGHTLY CRACK-ISH ROMANCE! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!

Romeo and Juliet: The Untold Story

By: Nekoluver and Kiki Fairy

Most of the guys in the class were either not paying attention in the slightest, or looking bored out of their minds. The girls, on the other hand, well most of them, seemed to be near tears. It was English class, and they were reading Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespear. A few of the more popular girls actually broke out into tears as their teacher finished up the last line of the story.

Izumi Curtis snapped shut the novel, and looked around at the faces of her students.(1) The sound of the book had actually granted her the attention of the boys as well as the girls. "Well?" she asked. "What did you think?"

The class stared at her silently with most of the students having blank looks on their faces. Izumi sighed. "I'm not even sure they understood what the story was saying..."

"Winry." The blond teen's head snapped up from where it was resting on her desk. She had been doodling automail designs in her notebook like always.

"Yes sensei?" she asked.

"Make your announcement."

Winry nodded. "Okay."

She felt nervous as she walked to the front of the classroom; she wasn't used to all eyes being on her, though she headed the Drama Club. (2) She took a deep breath, and looked straight into the eyes of her fellow classmates. "Well, since we just finished Romeo and Juliet, sensei thought it might be fun to do something extra to finish up the unit. She has asked the Drama Club to help put on the play with this class, joined with one of the Junior classes, making up the cast."

She felt her face flush as she noticed everyone's stares. She hadn't really expected any of them to pay attention, but some of them actually seemed kind of interested. The rest though, were either giving her blank stares, or looking utterly bored. She gulped and continued for the five kids that were interested.

"W-well, as you know, the original play had no female actors, or actresses. We will be mimicking this by having an all-male cast.," she finished, causing most of the boys in the class to either groan or glance around at each other nervously. "The girls will be in charge of casting, props, ticket sales, and whatever else will be happening behind scenes. Now boys, don't worry about auditions, because the girls will be voting on who will play what character. In other words... You'll be assigned a character and you'll just have to deal with it," she finished off her speech with a wink, and all of the guys in the class groaned.

Edward Elric was fuming. He had been nominated to play the part of Juliet. The worse part was, that the part of Romeo was being played by one of the Juniors. And not just any Junior, oh no, life couldn't be that good to him. It was being played by Envy. Now if the name didn't tip you off what kind of person this guy was, then what happened upon Ed meeting him will.

Ed was just sitting at his usual lunch table, trying to enjoy his lunch. Of course this didn't work out so well due to the fact that his friend Russell kept picking at him about his height. They were pretty good friends, so Ed was attempting not to murder the taller blond. Al and Fletcher were just watching their brothers with slightly amused expressions.

That was when it happened. The announcement. The announcement that announced who the lucky guys would be to play characters in the play. And of course they couldn't just announce who they would be playing like that. No, the guys had to report to the auditorium immediately. Meaning, Ed wouldn't get to finish his lunch. Or his argument with Russell.

So, Ed was already pissed on his way down the hallway. To make matters worse, some green haired guy in a mini skirt that looked like a palm tree tripped him on his way.

"Have a nice trip Chibi?" the jerk asked.

"See you next fall!" a guy in a black fuzzy vest chimed in. They boys laughed as Ed ignored them, got up, and continued on his way.

So he was severely pissed off as he settled into one of the audience chairs, and glared up into the stage. Then he got hit in the head with a few spit wads, and when he turned around in his seat who did he find? Palm tree and Fuzzy vest.

Edward Elric was having a very BAD day, and it was only going to get worse.

PRECIOUS TATERS

1. There's no particular reason Izumi's an English teacher... It's mostly just because... I HEART CURTIS SENSEI!

2. I really have no idea why Winry's president of the Drama Club.. But she's a dramatic person! It would work out!

Okay... I admit I slightly stole this idea from DNAngel... Except that wasn't Romeo and Juliet...But... Yeah...

Ryan- You're just writing down random thoughts...

NL- Yeah... Um.. REVIEW!
