In Fair Verona // Modern Romeo and Juliet // Private RP - CLOSED

MERCUTIO: Depends. What do you want?

MARINA: uhh… nothing you could give me. What do you want?

MERCUTIO: You already know what It want.

MARINA: i…. do?

(WAIT WHAT)

MERCUTIO: Yeah. My goddamn pizza money. You’re not getting away with free pizza.

MARINA: 😂😂😂 it’s like ten euro, chill

MERCUTIO: MY ten euro.

MARINA: your family is rich, Mercutio

MERCUTIO: I want my ten euro, Pazza. I’ll fight anyone for it.

MARINA: sure, lol. Idk what I want, tho..

MERCUTIO: Don’t worry about it. You won’t win anyways.

MARINA: ha ha, hilarious. But we’ve got to give each other clues first, since I barel know you and vice versa.

MERCUTIO: Clues?

MARINA: what makes you flustered and stuff. God, that sounds weird when I say it

MERCUTIO: You go first, Pazza.

MARINA: ugh. fine. glasses are cute on guys. Bedheaads. Slicked back hair (water, not gel). Uhh.. basic hygiene? The forearm thing. Leaning against walls. Idk?

MERCUTIO: The forearm thing?

MARINA: yknow. When guys have their sleeves rolled up to their elbows and they do that thing. I don’t feel like explaining. Your turn.

MERCUTIO: Im gonna be honest Marina… I don’t really know if I have a list like that.

MARINA: dont bullshit me. I have you my embarrassing list, now it’s your turn

MERCUTIO: I don’t have a list for you! I liked Belle and all she did was wave to me in the library one time.

MARINA: lmao. Still, tho, come on. give me something to work with, or the bet is off.

MERCUTIO: I guess I have a thing for girls that don’t buy into my usual bullshit. Like… Belle and I never would’ve talked to each other but she still waved—reached out to me. I don’t know. She seemed like she had a good heart, but at the same time she wouldn’t have hesitated to call my out if I pulled and popular bs on her.

I paused for a moment, a few more realistic things coming to mind.

MERCUTIO: Also ponytails are good. Or when a girl is wearing my sweatshirt or jersey or something. Reading too, but it’s gotta be a decent book at least or else you know they aren’t worth talking to.

MARINA: what qualifies as a good book?

MERCUTIO: You should know that.

MARINA: i mean in your opinion, dumbass. What kind of books do you like?

MERCUTIO: Good ones.

MARINA: genres. Authors. Series.

MERCUTIO: ”His Dark Materials” was a good series. Most classics work too. I really liked Lord of the Flies.
