1/2 Romeo

Meet Arthur, he's your regular hardworking, average, plain, "just-try-your-best" kind of guy. At nineteen, he's living on his own, and doing all he can with a minimum wage in a poor attempt to support himself and make ends meet. During the day, he works a part time shift at a local coffee shop, providing tea and other beverages to average customers like himself. Occasionally, Arthur enjoys hanging out with the very few friends he may or may not have made at school, which includes: a loud self-proclaimed "hero", and said hero's whisper-quiet boyfriend. Arthur, however, does have a pretty stable love life. He's never been dumped in his entire life. He's also never been asked out, but rejected many times? Yes.

Oh yeah, he's living the dream.

Which is why he wishes to end this dream.

Meet Francis, he has an amazing life. Son and heir to a chain of five-star restaurants, he's always received every single thing that he's ever desired. Born as the poster child of perfect health, good looks, and wealth, he has both men and women attending to his every beck and call. Being the son of a father who owns a multi-billion dollar corporation, Francis does little work, while still planning to go to college. Francis' popularity with the world brings to him: fame, more fortune, girls. At twenty, however, Francis can't ignore the strange feeling he gets, looking at his perfect world, as if something in his life is missing. Usually, he shakes off such a ridiculous emotion. After all, there's no one in the world who doesn't want to be him. He's living the life that everyone dreams about.

He also wishes to change this dream.

Both aren't so different though, entering the same college, sharing the same dorm, the same fate…

Little did they know that they would ironically fall into each other's path. Enter their star-crossed romance.


"For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo."
