There's lokey gonna be scenes in this like an actual play... kinda, just enjoy, I'll put the scenes in italics to separate them better!


It was supposed to be a fun thing for everyone. Of course it was. A romance and comedy play the whole class (more or less) could perform? Who wouldn't enjoy that? Well, the leads wouldn't. You see, the play they had chosen was actually a gay romance that they decided they'd make themselves, well, Toko was the one who wrote it and put in most of the ideas the rest slightly helped but that's not that point. The class could have decided on anyone to play the leads, maybe like people who were dating. But they thought it would be funny if they were the two people that hated each other. So it was kind of centered around them so the roll was chosen correctly, oh and they definitely didn't name them on purpose after who they wanted it to be it was definitely just the name of whoever got the role. And they hated every single bit of it. They did suck it up though and try to make sure they played the roles allocated to them well but it was extremely difficult. Especially when they knew there were scenes to come up of them kissing at points as we. 

The pair were reciting their lines at the first rehearsal and everyone was extremely bored.

"Look, I do not care how much you hate each other, you need to put more effort in!" Celeste said clearly mad. And she had her right to be they had no energy and she could be mad for no reason as she was directing it.

"Fine! Fine," Taka said, sighing.

"Good, now again please," She said smiling.

They both sighed before saying their lines again, this time with more enthusiasm.

"Now that we're finally alone, may I do something I've wanted to for a while?" Taka asked, with too clearly forced happiness.

"And what may that be?" Mondo asked, rolling his eyes.

Taka cringed at the next line he had to do next.

Mondo also saw what happened next and had the same reaction.

"Do we seriously 'ave ta do this?!" Mondo exclaimed angrily.

"Of course, I mean we could wait till final rehearsals and then the acting would look much less natural but you know, it's up to you," Celeste shrugged.

"I think we should just try and do it. The more practice the better right?" Taka said, hating the fact he had to say those words.

"Do we actually have to act this though? I thought we were just saying the lines?" Taka then said.

"Well everyone else is because they aren't the focus, their acting doesn't need to be perfect, you're the leads so it does," Celeste said annoyed they were trying to avoid what happened next.

They both were annoyed but continued on.

Taka regretfully had to pull Mondo into a hug and then say, "This," Before they both awkwardly had to try and lean in for a kiss, but before they could they simultaneously pulled back unable to do it.

"Yeah nah fuck this!" Mondo shouted.

"Do you mind if we just wait until we're more comfortable? This is only the first rehearsal and I don't know if you're able to tell but we clearly hate each other! This will take a while for us to get use to!" Taka said getting aggressive. 

"Fine, for now just pretend like you have kissed each other," Celeste said, giving up with the two.

However, no matter how much they tried to feel comfortable, they just seemed to get uncomfortable. Nothing worked.
