As I arrived closer to the party I could hear music and chattering from lots of people. I stepped out of the carriage to see people dancing and people with masks on. Then just then something caught my eye I look up and I noticed a beautiful, handsome man. This is when I met Romeo. At first, I didn't think him so grand. Just another handsome guest, here to enjoy the party. But the way he looked at me…. - his eyes burning with such passion, he made me feel as though I were the only woman in the world! He took me aside and sweet-talked me. I remember every word that was murmured. Our hands touched, and a sharp tingling feeling went through my nerves.
During the rest of the party I only had eyes for him and I felt his attention focused on me constantly. We kept gazing at each other. Then just after all the dancing finished we met again. That's when it happened. The moment came, when two hearts race, both win. And that's exactly what happened. We kissed, and murmured beautiful words that will never escape my memory, and then, our hearts leapt again, and we were as one. Just when I was beginning to enjoy myself, my father broke into our fantasy, saying that Mother wanted to see me. Reluctantly, I tore away from him.
After I had spoken to my mum I went back out to see Romeo but he wasn’t there. I searched and searched for him however I could not find him. My heart wrenched, sinking. Afterwards I sent nurse to find his name. He is Romeo a Montague. When I heard that my heart sank even more. See, here’s the problem. His and my families are enemies, and I know not what to do. I left shortly after and went to my room. I gazed out at the night sky from my balcony and discussed my thoughts aloud, to myself. Suddenly I heard a rustle of leaves below, I just thought it would be one of the servants. But No! For it was Romeo. As he climbed up to the balcony to my room I could smell his sweet aroma follow in behind. It was if the warmth of our love was melting away the abomination between the Montague’s and the Capulet’s. Soon, I was in Romeo’s arms and his in mine. I knew it was really dangerous so I asked me to leave as soon as he could. He swore his love to me and he asked me to marry him. I was so delighted I lunged into his arms. At that moment nurse was calling me so I parted with him.
I couldn’t get to sleep all night thinking about my wedding. I’m really apprehensive that someone might find out. I do not know what to do. But what really makes this all so confusing is that my parents want me to marry Paris. Oh, he's a fine man and all, but I do not love him, and how could I betray my heart when I love another. I love my parents. Truly, I do. But I just can't marry Paris. Especially when my heart cleaves unto another. My guess is that Romeo and I will run away together. Oh, how romantic! I fear that my parents might find out and I can’t imagine the horrible thought of what is going to happen if they do find out.
Oh Romeo, how deep is my love for him. Pity he’s a Montague and not a Capulet. You’ll be my only and I will still love you even I the sky is falling down.
