Caire glanced over at Michelle for a moment. Ah, what the heck? Might as well play the part! She kissed Brendon, pulling away after a few seconds. "I must go now, my Romeo. We shall meet again soon." She ran off the stage as instructed in the script.
Michelle was crying while Michael scoffed. Each duet had played to a different directors heart. The question was, who would get the lead?
….What just happened? Acting my friend. Acting just happened. Welcome to theater! "Juliet! Wait!" He reached for her but she was gone. He dropped his hand and sighed, his eye welling up with false tears. "My dear Juliet. I never got to tell you I love you."
(And that would end the scene, right?)
(Yes. End of scene.)
(Yeah I assumed Michelle would yell CUT or somethin lol)
(Nah. It's just auditions after all.)
(Well, end of the acting scene. Like on stage.)
(…….
Do you hear that?
…….
No?
…….
That's because no one's here.)
(CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP MO'FOS!)
(scuttles in like a giant terrifying crab)
Caire came back on the stage after the scene ended. "Well, Michelle? How was that?"
(Well we're kind of waiting for Michelle or Micheal to talk sooo we've been waiting on you.)
Brendon cracked his neck. "Yeah, was that okay? Oww, my neck."
Michelle was still crying, "It was beautiful!"
Michael contrasted her, "Beautifully hideous."
"MICHAEL!"
"I DIDN'T LIKE IT!"
"FUCK YOU!"
"fUCK YOU!"
Brendon sat on the edge of the stage, biting back a smirk. "Yeah, old married couple, I'm seeing it now"
"Yeah, they do this a lot." Caire smirked. "But Michelle liked it, and, in the end, it all comes down to her opinion. She is the president after all; Michael's just the vice." She went to sit down.
"Wait, Caire!" He called after her, hopping down.
"Yes?" Caire turned around, making eye contact with Brendan.
Michelle and Michael were still shouting. Something about how the lead director has more power over the president? And the other one yelling back?
He paused, a light blush covering his cheeks. "Um, you did really well up there. Usually, I'm stuck with someone who doesn't know half the things a proper theater kid does so I was impressed."
"Thanks." Caire smiled softly. "You were wonderful as well. I can tell you've done theater for a long time."
He chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of his neck. "Is it that obvious? I love Romeo and Juliet so I got a little bit too into it."
"Well, it's always good to immerse yourself into the story. That's what makes a good actor. I must have read the original Romeo and Juliet over a dozen times. Quite an intriguing story."
(Paige or Ginger, yay or nay? ..Awkward… )
(….Paige. We have Ginger in the other one.)
(Am I allowed to join?)
(Bring Paige back from the dead for this story.)
(OF COURSE YOU ARE!)
"It is, isn't it? A classic forbidden love story ending in a tragic twist. Oh my god I love it so much." He was like a kid on Christmas. Usually, people thought his Romeo and Juliet obsession was just weird.
Caire nodded. "Although, I think they could have handled the situation better. Like, do they honestly not know how to check someone's pulse to see whether they're alive?" She laughed.
