Jamie walked in the front door of her house to see her mother and father sitting at the kitchen table.

"Mom, dad, I'm going to be Juliet!" She exclaimed holding up the script.

"Jamie sweetie that's wonderful!" Her mother gushed.

"Who's Romeo?" Jamie's father asked remembering there were kissing scenes in the play.

"Landon," Jamie said hesitating for a moment.

They both looked at her with shocked expressions

. "Landon will be your Romeo?" Mrs. Sullivan said holding back a grin.

"Well I'd rather it be him than some teenage boy just trying to--"

"Honestly!" Mrs. Sullivan exclaimed not letting him finish his obscene accusation.

"Dad, come on not all guys are like that," Jamie said trying not to laugh.

"You never know Jamie," He said nodding with satisfaction.

"Well Landon's not like that dear," Mrs. Sullivan said nodding at him.

Jamie chuckled as she walked up the stairs to do her homework. She walked into her room and closed the door. She looked around her room. Her walls were painted pale purple, and covered with posters. She also had a stuffed animal collection in a hammock in one of the corners of the ceiling.

"I better start on my homework," Jamie said sighing.

She went over to her desk and opened her backpack and got out her homework and started working.

When Landon got home his mother was sitting in the living room reading. "Hi Sweetie!" she said putting the book down.

"Hey mom," he said growing nervous about what he had to tell her.

"Hey son," Mr. Carter said walking into the room.

"Hey," Landon said surprised to see him. He was surprised because he wasn't home much

due to work, he was always away or staying late to do extra work. It got to Landon sometimes, because Landon didn't really have dad before Cynthia got married and he still didn't.

"What happened at school today?" His mother asked with a warm smile.

"Well, I got the part of Romeo in the play," he said quietly.

"Landon that's wonderful!!" She exclaimed pulling him in a hug.

"I'm proud of you son!" Mr. Carter said patting his back. "So……who's lucky Juliet?" he finished.

"Uhh, Jamie," He said blushing slightly.

"Oh how wonderful!" Mrs. Carter gushed.

"Not so much," he mumbled.

Landon then took his backpack and headed upstairs to do his homework. When he got up in the room he looked at his surroundings, he had white walls but you couldn't tell from all the posters that were hanging on the wall. He then looked on his desk and saw a Christmas picture of Jamie and him, in the picture Landon held mistletoe over her head and gave her a peck on the cheek. Then Landon fell asleep wondering why Jamie got the part of Juliet, and he the part of Romeo.

"Sleepy-head you have to get up it's time for dinner," Samantha said giggling.

"I'm up," Landon said groggily.

Landon walked down stairs and sat at the table. "Well hello sleepy-head," Mrs. Carter said chuckling.

"Hi mom," Landon said rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

"So what have you been doing that wore you out?"

Jamie went to sleep that night looking forward to the play practices, why you may ask. Well 'cause then maybe Landon would accept her.
