The boy has gray hair and gray eyes, and he was also wearing a mask

"Who are you?" Aoi asked

"I won't tell you my name, but you may call me Nash" The boy said

"That's a unique name. My name is Aoi, it's a pleasure to meet you" Aoi said "Are you playing as Romeo?" Nash nodded

"Yes, and I do say you look beautiful" Nash said as he lifted up my hand and placed a kiss, and Aoi blushed

"I-I look forward on working with you" Aoi said as her face was still bright red

"Me as well" Nash said

"We about to start the play! Everyone take your places!" The class rep said as everyone took their places, the lights dimmed down and the curtains started rising. Then the narrator started to speak

"Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona, where we lay our scene, from ancient grudge break new mutiny. Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes. A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life. Whose misadventured piteous overthrows. Do with their death bury their parents' strive. The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love, and the continuance of their parents' rage, which but their children's end, nought could not remove, is now the two hours traffic of our stage. The which if you with patient ears attend, what here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend" The narrator said

The play went on as planned it, everyone watching the play were amazed on how the play is. Then the scene changed when Romeo and Juliet meet at the ball. Aoi came on stage wearing the costume that Rio gave her, and in the corner of her eye, she could see Rio taking pictures of her looking so happy. Aoi blushed in embarrassment. As she dance, she saw Romeo looking at her, and she quickly looks away

"O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night. As a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear - Beauty too rich for use, for Earth too dear. So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows. As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows. The measure done, I'll watch her place of strand, and touching hers, make blessed my rude hand. Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight, for I ne'er saw true beauty til this night" Nash said, and even though Aoi knows its just a play, the lines really made her heart beat

'It sounds so natural. Almost like he's a real prince or something' Aoi thought to herself

The play continues as schedule, it showed Romeo devoting his eternal love Juliet, how they got married in secret behind their families back, Romeo taking revenge on Tybalt for killing his best friend and ended up killing Tybalt. Before Romeo left, he went to Juliet one last time. After Romeo left, Juliet was sadden. Then Juliet's family moved her wedding closer than on the promised day, with tears streaming her eyes, Juliet went to see the priest, and he gave her a potion that'll make her seem dead for 48 hours and he'll send word to Romeo about the plan. On the day when Juliet was supposed to wed, her nursemaid found her lifeless in her bed. But sadly Romeo did not receive word from the priest about the plan due to the plague. When he heard rumors of the death of his true love, he decided to buy poison and die beside her in the family tomb. Once he got to the tomb, he saw Juliet laying on the coffin bed with flowers and candles surrounding her. Romeo looked down at his dead love, before he drinks the poison, he leans down and kisses her lips. Then he drinks the poison and dies, then Juliet wakes up from her slumber and was shocked to see her love dead beside her. Juliet found the bottle of poison, but it was empty. She took Romeo's dagger and ended her life.

The play ended with both families mourning the deaths of the only children of the two households

The audience applause at the performance, and the students took a bow. Once the curtains closed, Aoi noticed that Nash is nowhere to be found

'Where did he go?' Aoi thought to herself as she looked for Nash, and she accidently bumped into someone

"Is the play already over?!" The boy said as he looked confused

"Huh? Yes, the play is over. What's your role?" Aoi asked

"I was supposed to play as Romeo" The boy said

"What?"

"While I was getting ready, something knocked me out" The boy said as he rubbed the back of his head

'He was supposed to be Romeo? But then...' Aoi is now confused on who Nash was and where did he go

Dumon P.O.V

After the play was finished, I immediately left the school and made my way back to Barian world

The reason I went to the human world was do to a note I found on my desk saying that the girl I keep seeing is gonna be in a play and her role is Juliet and some random boy is gonna be Romeo. I couldn't allow some random boy be near Aoi.

When I got to the school, I saw the boy starting to change into his costume and I knocked him out cold. I changed into the costume quickly and I put on the mask to hide my face. After I changed into the costume, I started to walk around and standing by the curtains was the same girl, she looked nervous

'She looked very beautiful in her costume, and I'm very happy to know her name. Aoi looked like she's indeed a real princess' I thought to myself as I returned to do my duties as the leader
