Disclaimer: Romeo and Juliet, along with all its characters belongs to William Shakespeare.

The mail man's truck sputtered to a halt outside of Romeo's house. Romeo went out and said hello to the postman, and then went back inside, where Mark and Ben were waiting.

"Bills, bills, catalogs, oh, well, guess this one got delivered to the wrong house," he said holding up a fancy post card like invitation.

"What does it say?" Ben asked.

"It's inviting someone to Juliet Capulet's sweet sixteen." Romeo responded.

"Wait a minute, isn't Capulet that dude that your dad hates because of some stupid disagreement when they were on the board of ed?" Mark asked.

"Why the heck do you know that?" asked Romeo.

"Everyone knows. Your dad and this Capulet guy talk so much trash about each other that it's hard not to."

"Whatever." Romeo said as he went to throw the invite in the trash.

"Stop!" Ben called. Romeo turned around.

"I'll bet Rosaline will be there. You can see how trashy she really looks compared to other girls. Maybe then you can stop whining about her." Ben continued.

"A man so in love can't possibly change his mind so easily. But I'll go. If your right, and she's there, I can't miss the opportunity to see her." Was all Romeo had to say on the matter.
