*disclaimer* I don't own Gundam Wing, or Cartoon Network would put it back on, or else. I don't own Romeo and Juliet, but I probably could, as there was no copyright office in Will's time. I'm not making any money off this (but don't I wish..). Please don't try to sue me.
This is just a little something my twisted little mind thought up while reading r &j for class. I'm setting this in my home town because I don't know what Verona looks like. I have Heero speaking the universal language (sap) though there is probably no way he would ever say most of it. This is also my first story, so bear with me. More is on the way. Here's the characters I changed so no one gets confused.
Characters:
Benvolio-Quatre
Romeo-Heero
Rosaline-Dorothy
Mercutio-Duo
Juliet-Relena
Tybalt-Zechs
Paris-Wufei
Friar Laurence-Trowa
It's 5:30 in downtown San Diego. Quatre is talking to some strange guys in Horton Plaza.
"You should know if he would, your his friend." says one of them.
"I'm telling you, he probably won't. But he might. the girl he's after loves to fight." pleads Quatre. "I really don't know."
"Well, get in touch when you know, got it kid?" The guys file off, just as Heero comes around the corner.
"Who were those guys, Quatre?" His voice is blank and unemotional, even for him.
"No one. They just needed some directions." Heero looks skeptical, but lets it pass. "What's wrong, Heero? You don't look so good."
Heero slumps against the wall of a boutique. "Dorothy has another man. I want to kill myself."
Quatre quickly checks to make sure he doesn't have a gun. "But Heero...she's not the only girl in the world."
"She's the only one for me. We both feel the glory of battles. How could she disdain me for another?"
Quatre sits for a moment, lost in thought. Then he suddenly gets an idea. "Hey, Heero, I know what you could do! She's going to the Peacecraft dance tonight. you could see her there and talk to her."
"She won't talk to me."
"Even if she doesn't, there will be other people there. You could meet someone new and forget about her."
"But we're Gundam pilots. They won't let us in a Peacecraft dance."
"So we'll disguise ourselves. With a little hair gel and contacts, no one would recognize either of us."
"All right, but only if you can get Duo to go too." They both walk off too find Duo.
It is now 7:00 later that same day. Duo, Heero and Quatre are all disguised and wearing completely different clothes from normal. (i.e. Duo's Roman collar, Quatre purple vest, Heero's Spandex shorts). They all look moderately uncomfortable.
"Woah, classy joint." Duo comments lightly, "Hey Heero, you think we could..." He pauses and realizes Heero is gone. "Hey, where'd he go?"
"Look, over by the punch bowl. I think he's headed towards Dorothy." Quatre shakes his head sadly. "I'm afraid he won't recover from his obsession with her."
Heero, however, has not even realized that Dorothy is there. His attention is fixed on the brunette next to her with ice blue eyes. Relena is giggling with Dorothy, completely unaware of his regard, until...
"Dorothy, do you know who that man over there is?" she asks.
"Which man, Miss Relena?" Dorothy says air-headedly.
"The one staring this way." Relena is slightly afraid, but also fascinated by the stranger. Dorothy makes a slight sound of disgust.
"His name is Heero Yuy, a Gundam pilot. He'd better hope Mr. Melliardo doesn't see him." As Dorothy speaks of Zechs her eyes shine momentarily.
"He looks like he's staring right at me..." Relena sounds more than a little vague.
"Miss Relena," Dorothy begins patronizingly (God, how I hate Dorothy!) "You must be mistaken. Heero has been mooning over me like a sick puppy for months. He refuses to admit that I am interested in Mr. Melliardo."
Relena has tuned her out, thinking how it's ironic that Dorothy refuses to believe that Zechs has zero interest in her. She begins to move towards Heero. Heero is equally fascinated with her.
"Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!" He pauses, wondering where he got that from, then shrugs and continues. "She's so beautiful. Oh shit, she's coming this way." He panics momentarily. Relena has finally come up to him. He fumbles for a sec, but finally a brilliant speech pops into his head: "Hi."
Relena responds with an equally brilliant speech: "Hello." This catches Heero totally off guard, so he fumbles around for a sec before coming up with a response.
"Do you want to dance?" Relena looks confused, so clarifies. "With me."
Relena's confused expression melts into a sunny smile. "Oh. Sure."
Mean while, Dorothy has finished her rant on how Heero is so stuck on her and how she is about to marry Zechs and has finally noticed that Heero is not staring at her but at Relena, who just so happens to be in Heero's arms. She immediately turns bright green with envy and runs towards Zechs.
"Mr. Melliardo," she begins, displaying a smile with more sugar then a Krispy Kream Donut, "There's a Gundam pilot dancing with your sister."
Zechs tried to hide when he saw Dorothy coming, but was unsuccessful, so he has to talk with her. Then it hits him what she just said. "What! A Gundam pilot...with my sister! Where?"
Dorothy attempts to look serious but fails miserably and retains the sugary smile. "Over there, Mr. Melliardo. By the punch bowl." Zechs goes over towards his sister and Heero, and Dorothy tags along.
Fortunately, Relena looks up in time to see her brother coming. "You should go." she whispers urgently to Heero, "My brother is coming!"
"Your..." Heero follows her gaze and sees Zechs coming towards them. It dawns on him that he is dancing with Relena Peacecraft. "I will see you again." he whispers to her before disappearing in to the crowd and dragging a startled Quatre and Duo out the door. After they get a ways away from the door, Heero slips off and doubles back to the Peacecraft mansion.
"Where's he going?" Duo is obviously confused. Quatre look sympathetic.
"Dorothy probably rejected him again. He probably wants to be alone. We'll see him in the morning." Quatre and Duo go off towards their home.
So...like it so far? R&R please!!! -TBS
