Romeo & Julius
By: Kevin T. Smith

(Romeo)


	During gym I couldn't help but stare at him the entire gym
class. The way his ass looked in his basketball shorts, the way his shirt
would lift up ever so slightly and give me a glimpse of his perfect six
pack. Gym was over quicker than it began and I was stuck talking to the gym
teacher as everyone else went into the locker room. I decided there was no
point in changing since I would be back for tryouts later that afternoon.
	"Hey, new kid!" I heard from behind me as I turned around and saw
this tall black guy walking towards me, he was cute just not my type. He
was about my height with his hair braided and a very toned body that could
be seen obviously through his tight fitting black shirt. "It's Romeo." I
said stopping and waiting for him to catch up. "Yeah sorry, I'm Rob, I
heard you talking to Coach back there, are you really joining the team?"
'Rob, Julius' Rob?' "Yeah I used to play back in New York just glad I
didn't miss tryouts."
	"Oh ok that's cool. I just wanted to introduce myself I like to
know everyone on my team." he said smiling at me. It wasn't a normal smile,
there was something behind it. "Your team?" "Yeah, I'm captain of the
varsity team." The more he spoke the more arrogant he sounded he must have
been a guy who always gets what he wants. "Oh ok." "So what are you doing
before tryouts? Wanna grab something to eat while we wait?" I nodded as we
head towards the parking lot. "We can take my car." he said as we walked
over to a yellow Chevy Cobalt, it was gorgeous obviously brand new with the
new car smell his seats were black with yellow trim and it reminded me of
Bumblebee from the Transformers movies. "Dude this car is gorgeous." I said
as we sat in the car. The smile widened on his face as his ego grew,
"Thanks I just got it about a week ago." "Do you mind if I make a quick
stop got to pick someone up?" I shrugged in approval as we pulled up to a
white house not to far from the school. Honk. Honk.
	As the horn blazed the front door to the house opened and out
walked a guy who was about 5'6'' curly brown hair and wearing clothes that
were maybe a little to tight but showed off his feminine shape very
well. "You could just call instead of honking like an idiot." he said
getting in the car and not even acknowledging my presence.  "If I want to
honk I'll honk. You should have been outside waiting anyway." Rob said to
our new backseat passenger. He rolled his eyes and sat back and didn't
continue on with the unnecessary banter. "I'm London by the way." He said
still with his arms folded. "Romeo."

(Julius)

	"I hate Paul." I said as Ty got closer to her car. "What did he do
now?" I ran through the entire locker room scene as I remember how angry I
was that I didn't get my chance to talk to Romeo. "Well that's Paul, lets
eat I'm hungry." She said climbing into the car. "Look!" I said pointing to
the shiny yellow Cobalt. "Want to go somewhere else?" she asked I shook my
head and headed towards the doors. As the door opened six pairs of eyes
looked at me, `What was he doing here with them?' Ty and I stood in line
behind them and the tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. I
tried really hard not to look at them in case I lost control and smacked
London, the whore. But temptation got the best of me and I glanced up and
Romeo was staring at me, I smiled shyly and he smiled back. I glanced over
at London who must have caught our little exchange and glared at me as he
put his hand around Rob's waist. "Slut." he mumbled as he rolled his eyes
and turned away. "What did you just say? Really London I don't feel like
kicking your ass today so just shut up." "Don't tell me to shut up, it's
been a day since Robbie dumped you and you're already flirting with the new
kid." he said nodding towards Romeo who was slowly becoming red. "You call
me a slut but you were the one on your back even though Robbie still had a
boyfriend." I spit out with such acid in my voice. He let go of Rob and
walked up into my face I had a good 5 inches over him and could easily ring
his little neck. But I felt a tug on my arm and it was Ty pulling me
back. "He isn't worth it." I didn't budge he wasn't worth it but I so
wanted to smack that stupid grin off his face. "Hey fellas relax." Rob said
putting his hand on London and pulling him back. Again I look like a
freaking lunatic in front of Romeo. "I'm going to kick his ass Ty." I said
infuriated as we walked towards her car. "Let it go Jules." I tapped my
foot ferociously as we sat in her car and I swear I could feel steam coming
off of my head. "Let's just go back to school for tryouts I can let out
some steam on the mat.

(Romeo)

	"Wow!" was all I was able to say as we sat in Rob's car. "Rob you
shouldn't have stopped me I could've whopped his ass." Rob shook his head
and said, "Sweetie Sorry to say but Julius has like 5 inches on you and
would've really kicked your ass." "I can't believe you just said that." And
for the rest of the ride back to the school the car was dead silent.
	"Thanks for the ride." I said getting out the car not waiting for a
response. As I walked back to the gym I saw him again that flawless walk
and that oh so perfect body. I followed behind him as he walked into the
gym. 'Girls?' I said to myself as I saw a bunch of mats and girls
stretching. My eyes followed him as he walked to the end of the mat and
took a deep breath and took of running and did a round-off and then
followed a bunch of other amazing flips. My mouth was opened as I watched
him fling his body in back flips and the way they flowed perfectly together
was just magnificent. "Showoff!" I heard as the door behind me opened and
London walked in. He walked to the edge off the mat and took off running
like Julius did but it was different his seemed more forced but Julius' was
more powerful and it came natural. "Hey are you trying out?" I heard a
female voice as all eyes were quickly on me. I didn't really care that
everyone was staring at me just that he was. "Only persons trying out for
the Cheerleading team are allowed at tryouts." I blinked twice shook my
head and came back to realty. "Sorry, I was looking for the basketball
tryouts." All hands pointed in the same direction, "Other side." I smiled
and walked away, "He's cute." I heard as I walked out followed by a bunch
of giggles.
	I blushed as I entered the other side of the gym. "Glad you made
time to join us." the coach said as I put my bag down and joined everyone
else with the set of push ups they were doing. Tryouts went by like a
breeze though most of the younger guys were complaining about the work out
it was more like a walk in the park for me.
	"Hey Romeo!" I turned to se Rob walking towards me. Everyone seemed
to talk to me except the one guy I wanted. "Hey Rob, what's up?" "I know we
just met but I'm having a Halloween party this weekend would be great if
you could make it. Everyone is going to be there and it's a great place to
meet people." He didn't have to do much convincing I didn't want to be
stuck in the house this weekend. "Sure I'll be there." he gave me his
address and time and the other important information and we went our
separate ways. Four days to find a costume, Great!
