“That was before you told me to kiss you and I admitted to being in love with you. Unless I daydreamed that, which is totally possible.” I joked weakly, smiling at Juliet.

“But it’s not fair for me to—to keep you here…” I whispered, still not daring to meet his devastatingly beautiful eyes. “To tie you down… it would be so selfish of me… You don’t want to get out while you can?”

“I was going to leave because I had nothing left. Juliet, you’ve given something to care about again.” I grabbed her hand, squeezing it. “I wouldn’t regret a single moment if I stayed for you.”

(RUN AWAY TOGETHER SIIAEHJWIWJWN)

“I don’t deserve you.” Those four, weighted words tumbled from my mouth. “I knew you had feelings for me, and I manipulated you, I’ve been trying to physically and mentally hurt you for years—and a few days ago—when we were in the office with your parents— I just left you there. I ran with Marina and left you there.”

“I don’t deserve you.” Those four, weighted words tumbled from my mouth. “I knew you had feelings for me, and I manipulated you, I’ve been trying to physically and mentally hurt you for years—and a few days ago—when we were in the office with your parents— I just left you there. I ran with Marina and left you there.”

“You’ve been doing what you had to. You were surviving. My father did awful things to your family, and he still wants to. You needed to run. I’ll always have Mercutio to look out for me too. I’m not alone, Juliet.” I explained softly.

I nodded slowly, eyes puffy and lined with red. Although I still held he strong opinion that I couldn’t ever hope to deserve him, I accepted his statement like a coward, all of a sudden too tired to argue.

“Mi dio, I’m a mess….” I murmured, finally angling my head down to rest my forehead against his. “Would it…. would it be too much to ask for you to kiss me again?”

(I think I’m going to sleep now… sorry guys, I can barely keep my eyes open
Gnight!)

((Goodnight Topaz!))

“Absolutely not.” I closed my eyes for a moment, trying to keep this moment trapped in my head forever. “I’ll kiss you as much as you want me to.”

(G’morning)

Slowly, I cupped his cheeks in my jaw and angled his face towards mine again. My pounding heart skipped a beat, causing whatever confidence I had left to slip away, which left me with my eyes fixed to his lips, my body frozen in place.

It took me a few moments, but before long, I was leaning in again, pushing my mouth softly against his in a tender, much less urgent kiss.

I melted like butter as soon as Juliet’s hands touched my face. This kiss was slower and far more gentle. I traced her spine with my hand, gliding it across the back of her shirt.

I tried my best to focus on what was going on, but it didn’t take long for the blazing warmth and affection to overcome any sense of reality I had.

(How’re you?)

I leaned down further into the kiss, molding our mouths together, gently prompting his open with mine. Shivers raced down my spine, his caress following their path down to my waist. My nerves pooled in my stomach, giving my head space to think, to plan, to ease my all into the kiss instead of hungrily devouring him.

((Good! I’m going to be gone for a bit from 11-hopefully only 12 but Idk yet))

“Juliet…” I murmured her name into the kiss, rolling it off the tongue like a wave crashing ashore. I was lost in the moment, everything mister over by a lovesick haze.

(I might leave around 11:30 for a little less than an hour, I’ve got Doctor Who club
Glad you’re good!)

He breathed my name into the kiss, which only succeeded in pulling me down deeper into the inescapable sea of euphoria. “Romeo…” I answered, fingers entangling themselves in his hair. I wanted him to take me by the waist, to pull me closer. And I never wanted him to let go.

((That sounds fun! I’m going to the dentist😭))

As soon as Juliet put her hands in my hair, I pulled her closer until she was pressed against me. She gave me a feeling of security and pressure. I never wanted to let go.

(Oof, good luck)

There was no space left between us now in this tangle of breath and bodies, a slow and tentative dance. I pulled away just enough to inhale and came down again. “I think I’m addicted to you…”

“It goes both ways.” I mumbled in reply, running her hair through my fingers. Everything about Juliet was perfect, there was no doubt about that.

Finally, I came up for air, leaning back slightly and letting the cool night breeze slip over my flushed and heated skin. My eyes immediately cut to the open door of my balcony, but there was no one there. My father hadn’t awoken. Turning back to Romeo, I grasped his face in my trembling hands and tilted it to the side, a smile ghosting over my lips as I brushed my thumb over a small smattering of freckles.
