Chapter 2: Another argument
Authors note: Thank you for the reviews! I appreciate them soooo much! Anyway I have other ideas for Gnomeo and Juliet fanfics that I may just work on soon. That doesn't mean that I won't still work on this story though. Anyway in the chapter Tybalt gets his arm glued back on. Enjoy!
"Now look what you made me do!" Tybalt shouted as his arm dropped to the floor, luckily still intact.
"Me? What about you!" Rosie snapped back putting her arms on her hips.
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Tybalt asked a hint of annoyance in his voice.
"You're obviously the one who bumped into me; perhaps you should look where you're going next time!"
"Well I could ask you why you were out in the ally in the first place."
"I was exploring. What's your excuse?"
Tybalt froze how would he be able to tell her that he was following her. He was about to make a truce with Rosie but now it seemed like they would argue until the world ended. "I was checking to see if there were any trouble makers in the ally way, instead I find you screaming like a little girl."
"Ok flower boy you crossed the line!" Rosie yelled.
She was immediately stopped from what she was about to do when a garden gate opened. It was the neighbour across from Mr. Capulet and he did not look impressed. Tybalt and Rosie immediately took their original positions although Tybalt had no wheelbarrow and Rosie had no flowers to hold. The man hardly noticed the gnomes and focused his attention to the alleyway.
"Will you young couples stop arguing in the middle of the night? Some people are trying to sleep!" The man then slammed his garden gate and walked back into his house muttering things as he went.
Once they were sure of him gone Rosie and Tybalt unfroze and noticed that they had stopped arguing. They looked at each other for several moments waiting for the other to start another argument off, but nothing came. In the end Rosie decided to speak.
"Well, I guess we should get you back into the garden and do something with this arm," she said calmly.
"Really? Oh I mean, ok then," Tybalt replied following Rosie back into their garden.
…
Juliet and Gnomeo were on a midnight stroll. They loved to be in each others company no matter what they were doing. Neither of them spoke, they just walked arm in arm. They were then interrupted from their romantic stroll when they heard voices coming from the pond. The voices sounded angry and not so pleasant. Juliet immediately found it was Tybalt and Rosie arguing again; it was obvious that Rosie had not taken any of Juliet's advice earlier. Juliet and Gnomeo then sat in the bushes watching the commotion going on before them. And in their opinions it was quite humorous.
"Hold still will you!" Rosie snapped trying to balance Tybalt's arm with one hand whilst holding superglue in the other.
"I am holding still! Would you stop complaining?" Tybalt replied sounding just as annoyed as Rosie.
"I'm not complaining, I am just sick of your childish behaviour!"
"Oh I'm childish? Says the one who has an orange hat!"
"Well at least I am not cracked all over my entire body!" Rosie spat. Tybalt suddenly went quiet; the Rosie realized what she had said. "Tybalt… I'm sorry."
"Rosie, it doesn't matter… Just fix my arm," Tybalt looked away from Rosie as he said this. They remained quiet for the rest of the time.
As soon as Rosie fixed Tybalt's arm, they both got away from each other as fast as possible. Tybalt went over to the far side of the garden whilst Rosie stayed at the pond and sat quietly.
Juliet and Gnomeo saw the whole thing and felt sad for the pair. They spent all their time arguing and not enough time being nice to each other. Juliet sighed and put her head in her hands, to think she saw sparks between the pair. Before either of them could say anything, Benny, Shroom and the pink, plastic flamingo Featherstone came running along waving bits of paper around.
"Gnomeo! Where are you?" shouted Benny stopping dead in his tracks as Shroom sniffed about in the air. Gnomeo decided to make himself known of his whereabouts.
"I'm right here Benny, what's the emergency this time?" Gnomeo walked up to his excited friend who was still waving the bits of paper around.
"We need a computer ASAP!" Benny announced.
"But Benny, my mum is on it searching for a new shovel thanks to someone snapping her old one," Gnomeo glanced up at Featherstone who wore a guilty look on his face.
"I'm sorry for mistaking it for my leg Gnomeo," Featherstone said looking down.
"Wait. You thought it was your leg? It's tiny, how can you mistake lady B's shovel for a leg?" Benny's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Hey! It was dark and she left it on the floor and one of them little gnomes took my leg for a laugh, how was I supposed to know?" Featherstone explained.
"Well it must have been really dark for you to mistake that for a leg," Benny said smirking.
"Anyway Benny, why do you need the computer for anyway? And what are them?" Gnomeo pointed at the bits of paper the Benny held in his hand. Benny was practically jumping up and down with excitement as he spoke.
"These, my friend are called coupons; they give you special offers on items on the worldy widey web. I was thinking that we could buy a new lawn mower or something that could be any use to us".
"Benny, I think we learned since that time with the TERAFIRMINATOR incident that trusting you with a lawnmower is practically impossible. But it's worth checking out," Gnomeo then turned to Juliet who stood quietly thinking. "You don't mind do you Juliet?" Gnomeo asked. Juliet just smiled warmly.
"No of course not go on," Juliet replied, she then turned to Featherstone and smirked. "Featherstone can you stay here? There is something I would like to speak with you about. Something that concerns a little plot to get two feuding gnomes together".
"Sure," Featherstone said although he had no idea who Juliet was on about.
…
Tybalt sat there glumly whilst Fawn and the little gnomes and bunnies were playing poker. He wasn't playing; he was actually too busy looking around the garden to see if he could find any sight of Rosie. He wasn't having much luck; Rosie was good at keeping herself hidden during awkward times.
"Got any 10's?" asked one of the gnomes.
"Go fish," said another. The bunnies started to communicate through their ears, the clicking sound irritated Tybalt who was already annoyed at their presence.
"Can anyone tell me the point of this game? I was really enjoying beating you at the guessing game. Even Rosie was good at that," Fawn said receiving them weird glances he got earlier from the little gnomes and bunnies. "What?" he said once again shrugging his shoulders. Tybalt's ears perked up at the sound of Rosie's name.
"What?" he asked "you and Rosie talked?"
"Yeah and I will tell you something, she is smart at guessing games. She even stumped them here and they know everything," Fawn explained.
"Why are you so interested in Rosie Tybalt?" asked one of the small gnomes.
"Because he loves her!" another gnome blurted out and the other gnomes started to laugh. They then did something that got Tybalt where it hurts. They began to sing:
Tybalt loves Rosie,
Tybalt loves Rosie,
Tybalt love Rosie,
Tybalt loves—
They were them cut off by Tybalt "No I don't love Rosie! I hate her! Do you understand?" Tybalt blurted unexpectedly which soon shut up the gnomes up.
"Yes I do understand and I would have it no other way," came a voice from behind Tybalt. It was Rosie and she had her hands on her hips. She looked slightly sad but she hid it with a plain stubborn expression.
"Listen Rosie I didn't mean it like that," Tybalt tried to explain. Rosie only put her hand in front of her face and spoke.
"I guess this makes us equal eh Tybalt?" Rosie asked before deciding to walk off.
Tybalt went after Rosie and grabbed her arm "Rosie I am sorry ok?" Tybalt pleaded.
"Right… I guess I am sorry for what I said earlier but I do not accept your apology now. And neither do I want to see you, I can see now why everyone hates you! You're just plain arrogant!" Rosie shouted releasing her arm from his grip.
"And you are a stubborn cow!" Tybalt roared back, "I was gonna apologise to you for all of this, but no you are so stubborn and moody I don't even know why I bother!"
"That's exactly what I thought of you!" Rosie replied.
"Fine!"
"Good!" then both Tybalt and Rosie swiftly turned around and stormed off in the opposite direction. They would have to face each other in the morning where they were originally placed by Mr and Mrs Capulet but that wouldn't be the only time they would face each other.
…
"Are you sure you want to do this Juliet?" Featherstone asked after just witnessing Rosie and Tybalt's arguing.
"Yes Featherstone I am positive! They will have to face the fact soon and I want to give them a little push in the right direction," Juliet replied.
"But maybe they hate each other?" Featherstone said.
"I doubt it; I see the way they look at each other whilst they argue. It's obvious that they are hiding their feelings for one another."
"Well I don't know…" Featherstone looked away for a moment before turning back to Juliet who placed a reassuring hand on Feather stones side.
"Trust me Featherstone, tomorrow we will get them together and it will work," Juliet smiled.
"Ok then, I should never mess with a red gnome or a blue gnome for that matter," Featherstone joked.
"Exactly! It's the perfect way to get them together and what better time to do it than noon," Juliet smiled. Perhaps this plan would be a success. But like she said to Rosie "Only time would tell".
Authors note: Well here you go chapter 3 is on the way. More drama happens in the next chapter. Will Juliet's plan work? Will Rosie and Tybalt stop fighting? Please review and tell me what you think so far! Your opinion counts! Thanks!
