"Spoken words"
'thoughts'
telepathy ( I changed it since I can't use the little star things)
Sorry it took so long to upload I've been extremely busy studying for exams and I got my computer privileges taken away because I got a D on my report card. Anyway here's chapter 3 Rogue like most of the other residents at the X mansion spent the whole weekend rehearsing lines with the exception of Gala who with a few people in the Drama club spent the whole weekend piecing together the set at school. Rouge felt like the Monday of the auditions was the shortest day of her life, because before she knew it; it was time for them to take place. "Good luck" Gala said when she parted with Rouge and went to help paint the set on stage
Rogue looked around at all of the people who were at the auditions and saw Duncan, some of his friends, the Xmen, the Brotherhood, and Tayrn with some cheerleaders
"Okay people," the drama teacher said "I want all of you who want to try out for the roles of Romeo and Juliet to pair up into groups of two and you shall be doing the balcony scene. The rest of you who don't want to be Romeo and Juliet shall have to sit in the audience wait until those auditions are done"Immediately, Lance, Todd, Fred, Kurt, Evan, Kitty, Duncan, Tayrn and the cheerleaders, and some students who Rouge didn't know went and sat in the audience. The only people who stayed standing were herself, Jean, Scott, and Pietro.
"You want to be partners?" Pietro asked and for some reason Rogue found that she couldn't talk so she nodded nodded
"I know my part for the balcony scene do you know yours?" Pietro asked Rogue nodded again and thought 'Why am I reacting this way I mean it's just Pietro'
The people who didn't want to be Romeo or Juliet went first. Then the auditions for the roles of Romeo and Juliet took place with Rouge and Pietro going first.
Pietro:
But, soft!
what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and
Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who
is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far
more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her
vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it;
cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew
she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing: what of that?
Her
eye discourses; I will answer it.
I am too bold, 'tis not to me
she speaks:
Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,
Having
some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres
till they return.
What if her eyes were there, they in her
head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As
daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy
region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were
not night.
See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O, that
I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!
Pietro:
She
speaks:
O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art
As glorious
to this night, being o'er my head
As is a winged messenger of
heaven
Unto the white-upturned wondering eyes
Of mortals that
fall back to gaze on him
When he bestrides the lazy-pacing
clouds
And sails upon the bosom of the air.
Rouge:
O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore (this
the correct spelling) art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse
thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll
no longer be a Capulet.
Pietro:
Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
Rouge:
'Tis but thy name that is my
enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's
Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any
other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in
a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as
sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that
dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy
name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all
myself.
"Good job" the drama teacher said as a few people wiped tears from there eyes.
Rogue and Pietro took a seat in the audience and watched Jean and Scott's auditions. Which were okay except for Jean stumbling over her lines a couple times and a few times started reading Scott's lines, causing Gala to snicker softly.
You two did really good Gala said, as Jean and Scott's auditions ended I wouldn't be surprised if you got the parts
"Alright people" the drama teacher said "I will tell you right now who got the roles of Romeo and Juliet, the rest of you will have to wait until tomorrow to find out."
Everyone in the auditorium held their breaths and crossed their fingers as they waited for the names to be announced. Gala glanced over at Jean who had a smug look on her face which was soon wiped away be the drama teacher's next words"
"The roles of Romeo and Juliet shall be played by Rouge and Pietro"
A cliffhanger Like it? Hate it? Want me to change something?
