Reworking Romeo and Juliet

School

When I was 17 and my boyfriend was 18, I had a video project due for my English class where I'd have to re-enact a scene from a Shakespeare Play with other members in my group. My group and I did the assignment and I brought the camera to my house to touch a few things up.

My boyfriend came over and started messing with the video camera. I told him to stop and he did and things started to get kind of hot. He told me there was something he always wanted to do, tape us together. I was a little hesitant, but I gave in and told him to fast forward to a blank part in the tape for my video project. He did and we taped ourselves. We watched it afterwards and agreed it was pretty sexy. I told him to delete the video while I went to take a shower.

The next day the video was due. I put it in for my class and my teacher to see. What a surprise. There was no Shakespeare on that tape. Instead it was my boyfriend and I going at it like animals!!! I screamed and ran out of the room to find him. He told me he accidentally must have rewound it to the beginning and deleted the assignment. I was mortified. I ran back into my class to find to my horror the tape was still playing. The (male) teacher just sat there with a surprised look on his face while the class was laughing. I started crying and ejected the tape and ran out...

I didn't go to school the next 2 days. And when I did my teacher handed me a note saying "That's one way to do Romeo and Juliet." I switched schools the next semester and broke up with my incompetent boyfriend. As for the tape, I burned it.
