=__**Much ado about Prom Night**__=

As Beatrice, the mayor's blond daughter, walked into the gym, she was still fuming over her recent break up with the high school football captain, Benedick. As she entered the gym, she thought to herself, "Oh, I hate that jerk Benedick. How I would love to have the chance to pummel him into the ground." She did not notice, but secretly Benedick had arrived, but was wearing a mask and Beatrice did not recognize him. Looking very sharp in his tuxedo, he walked up to Beatrice hoping she would not notice his bulky build and recognize him.

Luckily for him, Beatrice didn't notice him walking up to her. Benedick said hello, and Beatrice, startled, turned around to greet her ex-boyfriend. Finally recognizing him, she scowled and harshly said, "Don't you have some dumb cheerleader to go cheat on?"

"I am offended," Benedick said in a mocking tone. He obviously had no feelings for Beatrice. Right at that moment Hero, Beatrice's best friend, walks over to them.

"Stop bothering her you jerk!" Beatrice was touched that Hero was standing up for her. Claudius, Hero's boyfriend, had also walked in, so Benedick didn't dare say anything back to her.

"See ya later, losers." Benedick walked away as if nothing had happened. Beatrice was now completely heartbroken. From the way Benedick had treated her, he obviously had no feelings left for her, even though secretly Beatrice hoped that he did.

What Beatrice didn't know was that secretly, Benedick did have feelings for her. Both of these teens were heartbroken, and they weren't able to enjoy the prom. As the prom finished at midnight, everybody left for home.
