"Stage Play" by Bellaward1105

Posted by Anonymous

Edward Cullen knows what he wants: her. For what seems like forever the teenager has adored his class mate Bella Swan from afar. From the moment the young girl from Phoenix, AZ stepped into his life, he knew that she was it for him. Her porcelain skin and long brown hair lured him in just as much as her intelligence and wit. She was everything he could ever hope for in a woman... and she had no idea. Because fear prevented him from asking the girl of his dreams out, Edward had no chance but watch her secretly and enjoy the moments they spent together as lab partners. Who knew that a 400-year-old dead guy would change that miserable situation of his?

Mrs. Carter, Edward and Bella's English teacher comes up with a brilliant idea. Her students are supposed to form groups before discussing how to adapt William Shakespeare's renowned play "Romeo & Juliet". And as those who decide to write an actual stage play are guaranteed a nice A, it comes as no surprise that Edward's group plans exactly that. So together with Alice and Rosalie, Emmett and Jasper, Angela and Ben, the twins George and Fred (*cough* Harry Potter *cough*), and Bella he dives head into collecting ideas. The result is a modern version of "Romeo & Juliet" or rather "Edward & Bella" as these two will be the lead actors. For weeks the group works hard to perfect their very own play and it is during that time that Edward realizes two things: one, he is madly in love with Bella Swan; two: he would use the performance of their play to actually show her how much...

So sweet! That's exactly what describes this wonderful story by Bellaward1105 best. Even though the fanfic doesn't contain any sexualized content (even the kiss between the two is chaste), Stage Play will leave you with a great smile on your face. You might even feel the need to let out a loud sigh, it's that romantic! Edward is every girl's dream boyfriend as his love for Bella is really all-consuming. The supporting characters fit well into the story, with Alice and Emmett definitely standing out the most! If you're in need for some innocent and fluffy High School romance, Stage Play is a must-read for you!
