A/N: Here's the next chapter. And trust me, this is NOT a slash. I'm not
that type of writer. (shivers involuntarily) I can't believe someone
thought that. But believe me, there are some scenes where you will be
wondering if they are gay or not. Well, they're not. To the one who said
this idea was goofy, I know. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing. I
know Luke wouldn't really send him off to military school, but hey! It's my
imagination. :-D
Jess stepped off the plane and was greeted with a gust of hot air, smothering his face. He looked up at the sky, the sun was glaring overhead. He walked into the terminal and was greeted by tons of people awaiting arrival. There was a man in green fatigue, holding a sign that read "Cadet Mariano". Jess couldn't help but groan. He approached the man, who gave him a once over.
"Mariano?" He asked, eyeing the headphones around his head with disgust.
"Yup." Jess replied, not the least bit intimidated.
"Lieutenant Webb" The man saluted.
"Cool" Jess said, purposely getting on his nerves. The man didn't find his sarcasm funny at all. He just glared at Jess. Jess felt small under his stare and that scared him. He never felt small.
This was going to be a long year.

Lieutenant Webb pulled up onto the grounds of a massive estate. Jess got out of the camouflaged jeep and followed Lieutenant into the building.
He led Jess up two flights of stairs and into a room. He opened the door to reveal a blonde haired boy reading a book.
"What the hell is going on here?" He asked, getting up.
"DuGrey, meet your new room mate." The Lieutenant said.
"What! My father pulled a lot of strings to get me my own room, you can't just stick someone in here with me!" The boy yelled.
Jess rolled his eyes. Another rich boy. And he had to spend all of his time with him. He tuned out the heated argument going on between the Lieutenant and the boy called "DuGrey". He looked around the room. This room wasn't like the rooms that he had seen in military schools on the movies. There was lush carpet, two beds, and a desk that had books on the book shelf. There was a comfortable couch in the corner and something that looked like a mini fridge. He could see a portable CD player sticking out from under one of the beds. He was sure that those weren't allowed. He turned back to DuGrey and Webb to catch the remainder of the argument.
"Forget it! I'll take in your stupid cadet! But don't expect me to tell my father this place is all peaches and cream!" With that, DuGrey stormed out of the room and slammed the door with the Lieutenant right behind him.
Jess noticed something familiar about the boy. But he couldn't place his finger on it. Oh well, he thought and flopped down on a bed, tired from the plane ride.

He opened his eyes and heard faint rock music playing in the distance. He turned over and saw DuGrey with his headphones on, reading some book. He wanted to say something, but he didn't want DuGrey to go off on him like he had done the Lieutenant. So instead he got up and looked at what was left on the edge of his bed.
There were three outfits: One was fatigued, one was white, and one was green. Jess sighed, this was what he would be wearing for a long time. No more Metallica T-shirts. He heard something behind him and turned around. The boy was up and looking for something around the room.
"Where is it I can't find it!" He grumbled as he continued his tirade. As he turned towards Jess, Jess finally noticed in his eyes what it was that was so familiar about him.
He too was unwanted.
"I'm looking for a book." The boy said, finally.
"Uh, what book?" Jess said.
"It's a copy of the works of Shakespeare. Just miscellaneous scenes and plays." The boy said, nervously.
"Oh well, I have a book of Shakespeare's works too. I could just let you borrow it." Jess said.
"Uh, no thanks. This book is special."
He continued looking around the room when Jess spotted it. It was sticking out of the cushion on the sofa. He walked over and picked it up. He flipped through it and was about to tell DuGrey that he found it when he found something written in authoritative handwriting on one of the pages. He stopped flipping through to read what it said.
"Act 5, Romeo and Juliet. Played by Rory and Tristan."
Jess's eyes widened at the sight of Rory's name. But then he calmed down. There could be another Rory in the world. Couldn't it?
A/N: Okay I know this chapter is really bad but that's okay. Reviews are appreciated. Even bad ones. Okay well I must go now and do homework. Cuz it's Sunday and I am the world's biggest procrastinator.
