AUSTIN, Dakota and Dez were sitting in Life Skills class getting a rundown on the next assignment from their teacher, Ms. Townsend.

"The purpose of life skills class is to prepare you for the future. Though, honestly nothing can prepare you for when your deadbeat boyfriend crashes your car and leaves you for your pilates instructor." Ms. Townsend rambled on making the class fairly uncomfortable.

"Anyway, for this week's assignment everyone will pair up and put together a budget and a visual presentation for one of these major life events."

"Okay let's see." Dakota mumbled as she read through the list of topics to choose from before her eyes landed on one specific topic causing her to turn to Austin. "Hey! What if we plan a wedding?"

Austin smiled at the idea before he got out of his chair and knelt down on one knee next to Dakota's desk. "Dakota... Will you make me the happiest man in life skills class and fake marry me? And promise to honor and cherish me until the bell do us part?"

"That was so incredibly cheesy but yes of course I will." Dakota responded laughing at the boy.

"You two make such a cute couple, just like me and Philip used to be." Their teacher said longingly. "He stole my heart. And then he stole my waffle maker."

Dakota immediately turned to Austin, "Don't you ever steal my waffle maker."

"Okay." Austin nodded before he paused. "Wait you don't even have a waffle maker."

"I'm just putting out there in case I get one." Dakota added.

"I was a cute couple once." Dez suddenly spoke up. "Her name was Carrie. Probably still is."

"I'm sorry, are you supposed to be in this class?" The teacher asked the redhead.

"Nope." Dez said as he rose from the chair and walked over to Austin. "Congratulations on the fake engagement buddy!"

"If you break his heart, I swear I will destroy you." Dez said to Dakota glaring at her. "Toodles!"

"You'd never guess he made five hundred t-shirts that said Team Dakota on them in pink before we started dating." Dakota said to Austin making him laugh.

"Ms. Townsend gave us a budget that should be easy to follow. We just have to figure out how much fake money we can spend on flowers, food, decorations..." Dakota listed off to Austin.

The pair were sitting in the courtyard of the school talking about their new assignment.

"And our bounce house." Austin added.

Dakota looked up from her paper with confusion written all over her face. "Our what?"

"Our bounce house."

"Austin, we are not going to have a bounce house at our wedding."

"It's a fake wedding."

"That will lead to a fake divorce." Dakota deadpanned.
