Romeo is dead, Juliet wakes. The friar is there but cannot hide from Juliet the fact that Romeo has poisoned himself. He wants to get out of there and take Juliet off to the convent; Juliet wants to stay and mourn Romeo. Will the friar give in and stay with her? Will she give in and leave?
This is the second last moment of suspense, closely followed by the last. The Friar, who is a coward, runs away leaving her there. It is clear that she wants to kill herself. But the watch is coming. If they find her they will prevent her suicide. Or the Friar might have a change of heart, return and stop her. She tries to kill herself with Romeo's poison bottle--empty! The watch is coming closer. Can she get poison off his lips, enough to kill herself--no luck! The watch is so close now you can hear them in the hallway; surely they will be able to prevent this suicide. No! she spots Romeo's dagger. "Then I'll be brief. Oh, happy dagger! This is thy sheath!" Urrgh! The Watchmen arrive just a second too late.
That's suspense.
Considering that it follows about a minute after they first meet, there isn't much suspense--about a minute's worth. This minute of suspense is filled with Romeo and Juliet flirting in blank verse, using religious imagery, and in the shape of a Sonnet. If you are perceptive enough to recognize the sonnet form when you first hear it, you will wonder what will happen when they reach the final couplet. And sure enough, at the very moment the sonnet is completed, Romeo and Juliet share their first kiss.
