SCENE II ACT I

Irvine, Zell and Squall walked into the house. Everyone was dancing. The three tried to get around and bumped into a few people. Suddenly, everyone made a big circle, in which two people Squall had never seen before, along with Lady and Lord Capulet, Raijin and another girl walked in and started to dance.

Squall removed his mask to get a better look at the beautiful girl. She had long, brown hair, with a beautiful blue dress on and was dancing with Seifer, count of Balamb. He stood there and stared.

Rinoa looked over in his direction. He smiled at her. She kept staring back at him while she danced with Seifer. After the dance was over, General Caraway went up to speak to the people at the feast. Rinoa stood beside Seifer.

Squall walked over, trying not to be noticed, and without notice grabbed Rinoa's hand and pulled her behind a curtain.

"Why, your even more beautiful up close" he said laughing.

"I'm sorry, do I know you?" Rinoa asked.

"I don't believe so, but you're the most beautiful thing I've ever seen Squall said. He leaned in and kissed her. Instead of pulling back like her though she would, she kissed back, and the two of them kissed the entire time her parents spoke.

"And the feast is over, you may all leave when you please" the General said. Raijin walked up to him on the stand. Rinoa and Squall just came out from behind the curtain and were no longer together.

"General, That boy there, he is Squall! A Montague!" He said " I will not put up with this! He doesn't belong here." Raijin was infuriated.

"Why I know. I noticed when he got here. But you WILL endure it. Balamb claims he is a good boy after all." Before Raijin could say another word the General walked away.

"Squall! Come on everyone is leaving!" Zell called to him.

Squall went to the door and looked back to find Rinoa talking to a girl who he recognized as a Capulet.

"Is…is she a Capulet?" he asked himself as he left

"Who is he?" Rinoa asked Quistis.

"He is Squall, and a Montague. The only son of your fathers enemy" Quistis said, walking away.

"Why is the one man I love…the only man I can't have..?" she asked herself as she turned around the follow Quistis.

ACT II SCENE II

Squall climbed over the wall. It was a big wall and thank god there was a tree there. He walked through the yard full of flowers. He saw a light on.

"A light? Is it her..? Rinoa…? Come Rinoa. I need you." He whispered.

Suddenly the door opened and Squall hid against a wall. It was Rinoa in what would seem like her normal attire. He stayed quiet.

"Squall…Why do you have to be Squall…My one enemy. Abandon your name. Or if you wont, I will and I'll no longer be Rinoa." She said while sitting on a bench with her head down.

"Should I speak…" Squall asked himself quietly.

"Its only your name that's my enemy. Why can't you be some other name? You would still be the same, but not my enemy so if would all be alright…Why?" she asked herself.

"Rinoa, I do love you and I will leave my name to be with you" Squall said in a serious tone.

"Squall…What…How are you here? Tell me and why? The walls are high and I doubt you could climb them. And You'll die if anyone from my family finds you here!" She said whispering

"With loves wings did I fly over the walls. For stone walls cannot hold love out. Therefore your kinsman are no stop there me" he said grabbing a hold of her hand.

"But if they find you…They'll kill you!" she said still being persistent.

"I'll just hide. You didn't notice me" Squall said with a quiet laugh.

She sighed. "Squall…if you love me…pronounce it faithfully"

"Rinoa, my the shinning moon I vow." He said.

"Swear not by the moon. The inconstant moon that changes every month in the year. Else your loves prove likewise changeable."

"What should I swear by?" He asked confused.

"Do not swear at all and I'll believe you.." she started but was interrupted.

"RINOA!" Quistis called.

I'll be there in a second! Squall, I love you more than you know" she said turning around to leave.

"I fear all this is but a dream…" Squall mumbled



Rinoa walked back to him and hugged him tightly.

"Three words dear Squall and a good night indeed. If you love is honorable and your purpose marriage, send a messenger that I shall send to you. Where and what time we'll perform the rights. And all my fortunes at they foot I'll lay and follow you throughout the world." She said

"Rinoa!" Quistis called again.

"I come anon! but if you mean not well…I do beseech thee."

"RINOA!" Quistis yelled.

"BY AND BY I COME!" she yelled back "Tomorrow I will send a messenger. One thousand times goodnight." She turned and started to walk away.

"Wait Squall! When do I send my messenger?"

"Tomorrow by 9" he said smiling.

"I will not fail. Tis almost morning you must go. Good night, Good night. Parting is such a sweet sorrow that I shall say goodnight till it be morrow." She said walking away

"Sleep well my angel" Squall mumbles after her while walking away.
