Hey, not many reviews for the first chapter...I'm kind of disappointed. I thought more people would like it.
So anyway, I figured I'd write a second one, hoping maybe some more people would read it. I really hope you do. If I don't get at least 3 reviews from this one, I'm not writing anymore. I mean, I might as well give up if no one's gonna read it !
So please, if you read it and like it, review ! Even if you don't like it that much, please review and tell me !
Thanks ! Okay, I'm done babbling. Here's the story:
"Alright, everyone! Everyone, please," a short, chubby woman started in the front of the auditorium. "People!" she yelled again - this time gaining the attention she wanted. Everyone immediatly diverted their eyes to her. "First off, I wanted to thank you all for coming here today. This play cannot go on with out you..." And then she said a bunch of other crap that's not important. Except for this: "Whoever is trying out for Romeo, please step forward."
Morgan had already tried out for the part of Juliet. She pushed Seth forward when the Romeo's were called forward. Seth still was unsure whether he even wanted to be Romeo, but then he imagined Morgan as the role of Juliet and immediatly made his decision. He was going to try, and try his hardest.
After he had made his audition, he sat down back in his seat next to Morgan. "You did a great job," she smiled. "I definitely think you got the part."
"Really?" Seth asked happily.
Morgan nodded. "I just hope that I get the part of Juliet."
Seth felt a strange pang in his heart when she spoke those words.
"How did the auditions go?" Mrs. Plummer asked Seth at the dinner table.
"Great, actually. I think I got the part I wanted," he replied confidently.
"What part?" Zoey questioned.
"Um...Romeo," Seth muttered lowly.
"Oh my God! Seth, you'll be the star of the show!" his mother exclaimed happily. Seth began to blush.
"Yeah, I'm done," he said as he got up to clear his plate. "May I be excused?" His mother nodded.
Upstairs in his room, he plopped onto his bed, staring up at the ceiling. I really hope I get the part.
"How'd the auditions go, babe?"
"Great," Morgan laughed. "I met some freak-show geek on the bus. He actually thinks I'm interested in him!"
Yet Stanley didn't look so pleased. "What do you mean? This kid likes you? What's his name?" he questioned.
"Well, yeah, it's obvious that he likes me. And his name's Seth. But don't worry, babe. You're the only man for me," she said placing a peck on his lips.
Stanley looked pleased. Then his expression lit up. "Plummer?" he asked.
"Huh?"
"Plummer. Seth Plummer?"
"Yeah, do you know him?" Morgan asked.
"Ha! Yeah, that kid goes to my school. Me and my buddies beat the crap out of him, like, everyday!" he laughed. Stanley was on the football team at Seth's school. He was among the gang of bullies that always ragged on Seth for being different. "Hey, I've got an idea. Why don't you lead this kid on and keep making him think you like him, then when he gets the part of Romeo or whatever, you completely break his wittle heart," he suggested in a moking tone.
"I like the way you think," Morgan replied with an evil smile on her lips. "I'm up for the plan. This should be easy."
