As Romeo awoke to a chilly mourning in the ever so empty manor, it had been months since he last saw his parents and was more or less on his own, luckily Ben and Mercutio kept life fun and interesting and father lawlence made a great father figure to the young Montague master. All the same Romeo still suffered from feelings of emptiness and a lack of self worth, he wished to talk to Ben and confide in Mercutio about his issues yet his male pride forbade such action.
Laying on his red oak dresser was a single plane ticket to Italy, As he glanced at the small rectangular piece of paper, memoirs began flashing through his mind....Sherlock, Irene, Viv and Hamlet were but a few faces of many he'd remember. As he grabbed his suit case he past a giant portrait of Lord Montague...looking over his shoulder he spoke "I'm NOT doing this for you....its my choice and mine alone" you see the Montagues had the tradition of leaving for Italy to learn about the family business, should Romeo ever wish to succeed his father for lordship this was but one mile stone. Grandfather Montague commanded that his grand son come to the old country to learn more about who Romeo was meant to be, he feared that with the Capulets so close by it was time his Grand son remember his roots.
Romeo awaited Ben and Mercutio but he long to see old faces as well this mourning hence he arranged a small yet classy brunch as a going away party, of course Ben and Mercutio knew where he was going but on record Romeo simply accepted an internship overseas.
"Oscar the guests will be arriving soon please see to it they are promptly taken care of..."
Romeo couldnt help but question if his blond mystery was to show...
