Chapter two Which Romeo's which?

Remus, Snape and Gildroy looked at each other with daring glares. Tonks knew that this would end up in disaster. She only wanted this to end up okay and have an actual chance at winning at the contest.

"Okay, you have yourself a deal." Remus said "The last person standing on this stage wins."

"Remus, you idiot!" Tonks cried, hopping down from the balcony and slapping Remus "This is a play! Not a massicre!"

A slight silence fell on everyone.

"Now this play will be a disaster!" Wailed Tonks storming off.

Remus gave a big sigh as they heared a big slam of the door.

"I guess I should go apologise to her." He thought, slowly walking out of the hospital.

Once on the sidewalk he glances around, then evaporated to one of the places he knew he would like be be right at the moment. Number twelve Grimmauld place. He walked in the kitchen to see Molly, Arthur, Bill and Fluer looking very confused.

"What happened?" Asked Bill as Lupin came into the kitchen

"Tonks... she looks 'eart broken." Fluer said

Lupin gave a long sigh as he told them what happened at the hospital.


Remus walked down one of London's sidewalks, avoiding the sideways glances of people who passed by him. He knew how important this play was to Tonks. He just had to find some way to apologise to her.
"Remus!" Called Tonks "Where are you?"

Tonks was feeling a little impatient that Remus wasn't there yet. She wanted to apologise to him of her behaviour yesterday. The least HE could do was show up.

"So. Remus isn't here." Snape said "Then... that could only mean..."

Suddenly taking Tonks' hand he said "Juliet my love!"

"I don't think so freak!" Roared Remus suddebly flying in and kicking Remus in the face.

"Remus? I'm so glad you're going to play Romeo! I'd knew you'd play him!"

Remus snapped his head around to see and oddly shaped girl who was holding what looked like a handmade costume. "I made this costume all by myself!" Shoving the costume in Remus's hands and running down the hall. "I'll know you'll make a great Romeo!"

Remus stared at the costume in his hands, then at the door. A few minutes roll by before Remus quickly chased after the girl.

"Sorry, I'm not taking any presents from any girls right now." He said, shoving the costume into the girl's hands and went waltzing down the hall when he ran into Tonks.

"Hey Remus." Tonks started, following Remus. "You ready for the play?"

"Yes I am." Remus replied slowing to a stop. "And all I want you to do is... to become Juliet, Got that?"

"Lupin..." Said Tonks "Do you know what Romeo and Juliet are to each other?"

"Father and Daughter... right?" Remus asked which was followed by a long and awkward silence.

"Remus, before the curtain opens." Tonks started, then her voice went into a snarl "Learn the story first!"


"And now the final entry in the competition!" Said the announcer "St. Mungo's hospital presents: Romeo and Juliet!"

The croud roared (and cheered) as the curtains opened for the play to start. Tonks was standing on top of a balcony in a flowing pink dress.

"O Romeo, Romeo," Started Tonks "Wherefore art thou Romeo?"

Tonks was pretty pleased that the play was going well so far. But she did have a feeling that this peace wasn't going to last too long.

"Juliet fell in love with Romeo at first sight." Amy Hopkins announced "But their families were bitter enemies."

As Amy was telling her part, Gildroy and Snape were silently punching each other. Amy's patience with them was running pretty thin.

"Juliet!" Gildroy yelled, running towards the balcony

"Oh no! Not Gildroy!" Tonks screamed in her head.

"No! I'm Romeo." Snarled Snape, kicking Gildroy in the stomac.

"No, I'm Romeo!" Called out Remus, kicking Snape in the back.

As the three of them started a huge brawl in the middle of the stage, Tonks stared in complete disbelief.Eventually Remus managed to sneak out of the fight and climbed up of the baclony.

"Juliet." Remus said happily

"Oh, Romeo." Said Tonks

The spotlight fell on the both of them as a long dramatic pause fell on the entire audience.

"Arn't they suppose to talk?' Whispured one person

"This is the dramatic pause you dolt!"

"I can feel the love between the two of them!"

"Oh, Romeo," Tonks whispured dangerously "Did you learn your lines?"

Remus gave a goofy grin as he shook hisd head no. Tonks gave a very angry scowl and nearly pushed Remus off of the balcony.

"Hold he in your hands you fool!" Whispured an angry voice behind Remus.

'Arthur?" Tonks whispured looking behind Remus.

"I've had a feeling that you were going to need me tonight!" Whispured Arthur "So, hold her in your hands and say what I say."

Lupin hesitated at first, but eventually took Tonks' hands.

"O, Juliet."

"Ro...meo?"

"I pledge my troth to marry thee..."

"Yes?"

"To love and care for thee forever."

Afew seconds went by. No one spoke.

"And now for the big kissing scene!" Arthur whispured happily, shoving Remus into Tonks.

"YEAH! Go for it!"Screamed various people from the crowd.

"Show us your stuff."

"It's only pretend!" Yelled Tonks

Suddenly a rustle came from the bushes and then, Bill Weasly came hopping out.

"Live on stage! Romeo and Juliet!" He shouted when he his the stage. "See em kiss before your eyes!"

"Stop that!" Hessed Remus

"Time for the big kissing scene!" Arthur said, ignoring Lupin and shoving him and Tonks together.

"That's enough!" Snarled Remus, pushing Arthur away from him. "Nothing, and I mean nothing, is going to make me kiss Tonks!"

"I'm not exactly begging to kiss you either!" Snarled Tonks, who was trying to hit Remus with a fake tre limb, which she ripped off of the balcony.

"But your friends want you to!" Cried Bill

"Must you two fight like this?" Asked Arthur, who was sad and mad at the same time. A few boos echoed through the audience.

"What a tradgety!" Wailed Amy Hopkins.
