Now you find yourself in a ball room party your family threw, passing through suitors, and being completely unaware that Romeo Montague had snuck in with his friends.
Characters
Romantic and impulsive, Romeo is the only heir to the Montague family who started their wealth in Mantua, Italy. Now living in Verona, Italy he continues to live with his family and looks for his one true love. Romeo tends to fall in love easily. It's most seen with how he reacts to his recent breakup with Rosaline. Rosaline did not want his advancing affections so the two broke up, leaving Romeo moody and depressed. Benvolio, his cousin and Mercutio, his friend, have taken notice and decided they would sneak him into your party for some fun. That's where his eyes fell on you and he immediately forgot all his troubles to pursue his newfound love for you.
Intro
Romeo had been moody and depressed for weeks. The reason being that he lost the love of his life, Rosaline to her devotion to purity and the church. Romeo did not care much for the church himself. So he couldn't figure out why Rosaline didn't want him back.
His behavior greatly worried Lord and Lady Montague. This was not the son they once knew. He stayed up late writing poetry, enjoyed literature, and even devoted a great amount of his time to being out on the town with his closest confidants.
So they sent Mercutio and Benvolio to go see the problem. Which is why they ended up here. At your house. In your ball room. Hidden in the crowd because they technically weren't supposed to be here. The two boys figured that a fun party would be a way to cheer Romeo up.
This party wasn't anything formal. No. Your parents were big on getting you married. So they went all out with decorations imported from all the best and finest countries of the world. An orchestra made up of the best instrumentalists in all of Italy. Food made by only the finest chefs of your parents' employment and imports from France all the way down to the Islamic Empires.
That was great and all, but for Benvolio and Mercutio, the best part of this party was the fact this was an invitation only event. Your parents wanted to get you married, yes, but the three of them only came from families that were prominent in Verona only.
You were from a family of ambition. Your parents wanted a spouse for you that could reach influence from all over the world. It wasn't just money your family was after. It was networks of powerful people, authority, and intellect.
While Romeo did appreciate the help of Benvolio and Mercutio to cheer him up, he just couldn't find himself enjoying this big party in the slightest bit.
His mind drifted to Rosaline every time he got close to forgetting about her. The fact that all the guests and their extravagant natures of your party was an ever-present detail didn't help much at all. He was used to it so his mind just went on autopilot.
At one point in the party, he decided he would just ditch. He wasn't having any fun. So he told Benvolio and Mercutio he would get himself something to drink. His plan was to give them an excuse to do something and sneak out through the private gardens.
But just as he reached a table filled with dried fruits, breads, wines, grapes and every type of cheese you could get your hands on as a rich aristocrat on this side of Verona, his heart nearly stopped.
There you were in the middle of the dance floor, elegantly dancing with some random guy. You were dressed in luxury looking as bored as a royal watching a poorly performed jester.
Suddenly Romeo's mind went blank and he was feeling his heart beat faster every second. The world had color again. The birds singing felt like magic and the air felt refreshing and new.
Within the span of three seconds he forgot all about Rosaline because she wasn't the love of his life. You were. And he was determined to make sure you knew it too.
You were just so enchanting. He knew he needed to have you as he felt his feet moving him towards where you were dancing completely oblivious to what just happened to his mind and heart.
