“O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name. Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, And I’ll no longer be a Capulet.” he recites for the billionth time.

You had a production coming up and you had nobody to run lines with, so he obliged. You couldn’t ask for a better partner - really, he sounds almost a bit too into the role.

He thinks he’s sneaky. He looks at you like you really are his soulmate, his sworn love he’d die for. He prays you don’t notice.
