Romeo's Pov

Right now as he was laying down in a soft blue chair big enough for two, looking over his king-size hardwood bed, covered in silk sheets and soft feather pillows, He couldn't help but wonder why the red whirlwind girl had now filled his mind. She was beautiful true, with soft smooth looking skin and alluring chocolate brown eyes, her auburn hair like the dawn had the faintest scent of lilies, and right now her face was all he could think about. He scanned the area for a moment and making sure no one was there he inwardly sighed and again making sure no one could hear, for this would truly run around as gossip, he screamed for that girl could not escape his mind.

Ever since he put Cielo away, he couldn't help but feel a slight tingling whenever he looked at the hand that had grasped that delicate wrist, and then when he looked at two of his hands he couldn't help but remember how soft and round those breast felt. And then he mentally slapped himself. "Cool it, Romeo, she's a peasant girl, besides you're going to end up marrying some noblewoman of high degree or The Capulet girl. Probably the former, he was 20 years old after all, and besides on his 21st birthday, he and his father both knew, by then the nobles would have to give up on the Capulet girl, 15 years would have passed, and the girl probably would have married some peasant, seeing as she had for a year been of marriageable age, and the nobles would not want some peasant king, so they'd prefer to opt out the girl before then. The nobles where loyal to the Capulet's true but their loyalty no matter how undying, could give away to their humongous paranoia the peasants would revolt and kill them all. So one more year he would just have to wait until then.

A creak of the door got his attention as a small five-year-old girl with deep green eyes and soft raven hair came to him, excited as her lessons were over and run to him screaming "Daddy!" He laughed as he opened his arms, ready to scoop the little girl in his arms. "Miranda" He laughed as he scooped the little girl into his arms spinning her around and around as she laughed in pleasure." He soon showered her with kisses, as the little girl hugged him close. "Now tell me how was your day?"

If there was one good virtue that had escaped his father but fortunately Romeo had was being a kind loving devoted father. And that was what he was. He got noble girl pregnant, and as her last dying act, she gave birth to his child, she was a bastard true, but the nobles had begged him to screw that girl over, so they didn't what to do with her, and Romeo at age 15 had become a father, the thing was by then he had so much of a resentment to his father, that he wanted to be different from him in so many aspects as he could and one of those aspects was being a good father, which he hoped he was. One thing was for certain, he loved little Miranda with all his heart, in fact, everyday Romeo would squeeze in as much time with her as he could, little things even, he had raised Miranda, and one aspect he wanted from his wife, was that she be good to his daughter, and now that he thought about it, The Capulet girl being his wife, would actually help since Miranda being a bastard could never inherit the throne of Neo Verona, that for him would be suicide for his house so at the very least he was 100% positive the Capulet girl would not see Miranda as a threat to her eldest son's inheritance, the other's he was not so sure. He sighed as for some reason a thought came to him 'That red whirlwind girl will probably be married to some peasant by the time I get married.' And for some reason, that thought really pissed him off, but he faked a smile for Miranda's sake.

Juliet's Pov

She scanned the area making sure she was safe, making sure the whole street was empty, before knocking at doctor Lancelot's door. "Who is it?" She heard a warm voice said. It was a female voice soft warm and motherly, kind and soothing even. Doctor Lancelot's wife Elain. "Someone who's not supposed to be here." She squeaked before the door opened and she was greeted with the warm smile and exasperated sigh of Elain. "Really dear heart, you should really be more careful," and as if it was a side note she added, In fact, you shouldn't have been so reckless at all, what has it been almost 5 years since you're first reckless you almost got killed or arrested moment?" Juliet couldn't help but laugh nervously at that. Elaine sighed before giving her a warm kind motherly yet exasperated look, "come in, I'll have my husband check on you if you're injured." Juliet replied she wasn't, thus earning a sigh from Elaine "if you're going to be the red whirlwind, make sure not to get caught or almost caught, cause that could be used against you. Juliet lowered her head in soft shame "I know." "It'll be midnight before they stop looking for you. "Stay for dinner, I always make room for seconds anyway, so come on eat and enjoy yourself." She smiled as she entered a warm set of clothes from Elain's younger years ready for her as she entered the room set just for their visitor. Juliet had met Lancelot on her first trip as the red whirlwind, reckless and insecure she had run into the man, someone new to Neo Verona hoping to make a living in another city, he was a city dweller he stated who wanted to move to the countryside but had no money to afford it yet. He had been her first save in fact as noble guards were hassling him and his wife and their three-year-old daughter was forced to watch, Juliet had caused a spectacle but being new at it was therefore caught and needed assistance from the good doctor, who then promptly healed her and sent her back to Conrad as he not only chastised her but gave her quite a big bump on the head as well as forced her to take.. shiver..lessons in how to be a perfect lady. Juliet didn't mind being a girl, but being a proper lady that was demure and no fighting and no running and not doing anything she found fun for that matter, was torture. She didn't know how Cordelia put up with it, nor how noblewomen put up with it. Well, all in all, Juliet ended up learning the complete works of etiquette a strong friendship with Lancelot and Elain because he ended up having to heal the red whirlwind, several times. They were like a set of parents for her if she was to be honest.. in fact Juliet visited so often this was probably a second home to her. "Juliet!" She could hear the squeals of their two daughters Bianca and Celia who she had grown fond of over the years as they squealed and jumped in her arms. "Juliet Juliet they screamed, as they tackled her to the floor, then promptly tried to check her pockets for treats. "Hey, hey! Stop that you two." They pouted but we want candy!" They pouted. "Yes, but you two know I can't sneak any of you two at this hour." They pouted knowing it was impossible when their mother was almost done with supper. "Yes, but we had no sweets all day." She laughed, knowing that was true, Then promptly told them "Well, unfortunately, I can't sneak any sweets to you two right not without getting caught." They both pouted at this, "But Juliet." And with a sigh, she explained: "And besides I don't want to get into any more trouble than I've had already." At this, The little girls giggled, "You were a superhero again weren't you?" Juliet gave them a mischievous smirk, "The red whirlwind can overcome my travesty!" The little girls were about to cheer for her when they heard a young woman's voice scream "Juliet!" In a harsh critical and chastising tone, And quickly added with a mumble "Except Conrad and Cordelia they're scary." The little girls nodded and scattered off leaving Juliet to her doom."

She turned around with a nervous laugh "Cordelia what a surprise to-" "What were you thinking you, idiot, could you be any more reckless."

"But"

"No buts you could have gotten yourself hurt or worst."

"Yes, but it was for the right cause."

Cordelia gave her a dubious look." And may what cause is that exactly?"

"To save a helpless maiden about to get arrested."

"And you though to get arrested in her place?!"

At this Juliet shrank in intimidated fear. "Yes but."

"No buts idiot, show some restraint." At this Juliet looked dejectedly at the ground knowing her argument would be at a lost cause. But she still mumbled, "You know what they do those girls they hunt." Cordelia's face softened at this. "I know sweet girl, but you know there's not much we can do for them, you being a warning signal is dangerous enough, and you know by now some of those girls you save aren't so lucky." Juliet was dejected, "But they're new to the capital, they don't know any better, and they're the same age as me." Cordelia then sat Juliet down and hugged her close. "I know dearest girl, but you know by now their's not much we can do." "But that could happen to me." "Don't say that!" Cordelia scolded her voice harsh, and with this Juliet shrank back only for Cordelia to hug her close again, and tell her "All we can do is warn people, nothing less nothing more." Cordelia sighed at this, "I know you won't stop being the red whirlwind, but please know that Conrad, curio Francisco and I are worried for your safety, it's hard enough letting you as a girl as it is sweetheart." Juliet nodded. "Now then care to tell me how you escaped?" Juliet then laughed again nervously. "You saw?" I saw you ran somewhere that was a dead end, so tell me, Juliet, how'd you escape?" She sighed, "Some extremely wealthy merchant's son helped me?" Cordelia raised an eyebrow at this, how'd you?" He had a dragon-steed but was wearing peasant garbs." Cordelia nodded, dragon steeds that could fly were a great luxury and could only be bought by the rich. But then Cordelia frowned "But I don't know any-" "His families probably new to Neo Verona, didn't really understand certain protocols."

Cordelia's Pov

She nodded knowing full well, some merchants bought houses to Neo Verona, not much stayed there for long it was more of a home they could have, like the noble's villas, they were probably just expanding their empire anyway." She couldn't help but feel like something was wrong, then noticed Juliet was seething, as she heard her say "To hell with that damn bastard. " She looked at the girl with surprise, "What a rude thing to say, what's gotten into you, he saved your life!" at this Juliet sighed, as if she needed to get something out of her throat. "The bastard knows the red whirlwind is a girl!" At this Cordelia felt panic, could it be that the nobles figured out their ploy in hiding Juliet, panic filled her veins, but her fears assuaged as Juliet stated, "The bastard a good grope of me as he helped me on his dragon steed, and that bastard kept on groping my breast to make sure he was correct." She raged, and at this Cordelia sighed, that was a possibility Juliet didn't wear her especially made metal vest that hid her breast and made sure no one could feel them while she wore it. The girl as the red whirlwind instead hid her breast between clothing, so yeah the man probably got a good feel for her, while helping her up to his dragon-steed midair. "And to make things worst he threatened to remove my mask by force if I didn't show him my face. Cordelia sighed, yup definitely a merchant's son, and a new merchant at that. Otherwise, they'd have figured out by now there would be no benefits at finding out the red whirlwind's identity. The only benefit would be that the red whirlwind, as long as they don't do slave trade as the family business, would never dare to compete in their trade. Other than that the knowledge of the red whirlwind being a girl was basically useless. Cordelia sighed and besides most likely they where a merchant group that could be trusted if their son had rescued the red whirlwind, they would probably gain knowledge of Juliet's role as a warning signal for the townsfolk. Cordelia still sighed nonchalantly, it was still a nuisance to have the open knowledge that someone openly knew who the red whirlwind was, Cordelia had an inkling some people knew "Odin's" Alter ego already so it didn't really matter anyways that the merchant boy knew her face, but that didn't stop a strange gnawing feeling that there was more to that boy than Juliet's knowledge, but Still Cordelia sighed, it was nothing probably, she was probably wasting her time worrying about it.

"Well, you have no one to blame but yourself." Juliet looked at her a betrayed look on her face, but still, the flaxen-haired Cordelia was firm. "If you hadn't been so reckless and went out again, or even made sure not to go to dead end, well I'm pretty sure no one would have had a chance to have that good of a grope on you, or even if you had just worn your METAl VEST, none of this would have happened. Juliet sank absolutely deflated. Fine, but I think we should agree the guy was a complete jerk. Cordelia sighed "Juliet he saved your life!"

"He groped me."

"I'm pretty sure he was making sure he was right.

"By groping me?!"

"Well you're a growing girl, and you're not flat chested either." At this Juliet hugged her chest and blushed like mad, being completely quiet and childishly sulking, and Cordelia sighed, to think that the princess of the house Capulet the jewel of Neo Verona was this childish immature impulsive 15-year-old girl, yeah she worried about what the future would be like, not about leading but the noble's opinion of her once the Capulet's where back in power.

"Well anyway, At least I know we now have an ally."

"Yeah probably not, Juliet replied. At this, the eighteen-year-old raised an eyebrow. "And may I asked why?"

"Because I kicked him in the groin." Juliet bluntly admitted. At this, Cordelia groaned inwardly, really this girl.

Juliet's Pov

The day went off swimmingly as Elaine cooked up a fine supper of potato soup mixed with roots she found in the outskirts town, ut had a sweet yet bitter and savory taste that left one full but wanting more. Juliet licked her lips enjoying the fine supper that had been laid out for her asking for seconds if possible, enjoying the rich soup only to have the memory of the asshole that though saved her life proved to be a complete pervert considering he got a pretty good grope at her. For some reason she remembered his hand on her wrist as she unconsciously grabbed it, not knowing a blush was appearing on her face. But Doctor Lancelot did as he teasingly asked her, "So did something good happen?" Thus removing Juliet from her thought of the merchant's son.

"Hmmm." She asked, surprised.

"You're blushing Juliet, and I've seen those blushes before."

"Oh yes," Elaine nodded. "And I've had those blushes before."

Juliet instantly grew tomato red. "No nothing happened, what makes you think I like someone."

"I didn't ask if you liked someone." Lancelot exclaimed I was asking you if something good happened."

"So what's the lad's name?"

"There is no one, besides I don't know his name!"

"A new guy huh?" Elaine added. "He must be quite handsome then.

Juliet was blushing now remembering that yes that merchant's son was handsome, but reminded herself that despite his athletic built, handsome face and dreamy aquamarine eyes, that he was still a perverted jerk that had groped her. So she simply puffed her cheeks like a chipmunk and stated: "I'm not talking about this anymore." Lancelot and the others laughed at this, "So care to tell me are your wrist ok."

"Huh?" Juliet asked blankly.

"Well you've been holding it for a really long time, so either it's because you're injured or because of a boy."

At that Juliet's face instantly turned a crimson that would have roses. "Wha I'm not injured."

Elaine gave a smirk, "So it's because of a boy then, well you are of an age where you start dreaming of love and romance, so I'm not surprised."

In retaliation, Juliet huffed "It's not because of a boy, I just feel like holding my wrist that's all." And in five seconds Juliet realized what she just said, everyone gave her amused smirks. "Alright don't tell us we'll find out who it is anyway."

"It might be the new merchant's son she met today." Cordelia piped up."

"No, it's not that jerk!" Did they telepathically agree to gang up on her something?

"Who now?"

"Juliet told me about a merchant's son rescuing her in one of her little adventures today."

At this Elaine and Lancelot gave Juliet blank stare and simply asked Cordelia "She was almost caught?"

"She was almost caught."

and then they proceeded to ask, "So who's this merchant's son?"

"Don't know, they're new."

"Ahh."Lancelot nodded.

"so he must be pretty handsome for our little Juliet to have fallen for him at first sight."

"I didn't fall in love with that jackass!"

"But he was probably handsome wasn't he." Lancelot gave Elaine the old jealous stare, and Elaine simply gave him an amused look.

Juliet blushed but knew she had to answer, "Well yeah he's quite dashing, But he's still a jerk, and a pervert at that." At this, they turned their heads and gave Cordelia a questioning look. "He was helping her midair to get on his dragon steed, he accidentally got a pretty grope I'm guessing." And they simply nodded accepting that answer, and pretty soon Juliet found her dinner to be one of cold merciless teasing until she simply finished blushed and stated: "To hell with that jackassed rich entitled pervert!" And left the dining room much to the amusement to everyone else there.

Later that night as Everyone elese lay asleep in their beds Juliet couldn't help but to hold her wrist again, as memory of the Handsome youth evaded her mind, And she couldn't help but wonder if she'd see him again. Though she'd never admit to anyone, She'd like that idea,.
