There's a rivalry between two high schools
That's been around since 1989:
Cullview Memorial School and Preston High.
I went to Preston, and the hate for Cullview was real.

He came to Preston from Cullview.
His girlfriend stayed at Cullview.
We would always compare them to Romeo and Juliet,
A romance forbidden by the law code of adolescent teenagers

My friend, though she knew it was futile, developed feelings for him.
We met through her.
He was nice enough, and had gorgeous eyes.
He was an amazing friend.
One day, he saw me crying, and stayed with me until I felt better.

That's the day I broke every girl code there was.
I started to love him.

I knew it was wrong, but I couldn't stop. I'd go out of my way to bump into him. I'd pretend to need help on homework just to be with him for a while. I thought it would help just to be around him, but it only made me fall deeper.

What is it called when he's your Romeo, but you're not his Juliet?

Hell. That's what it's called.
