will you do the honors of being my fake wive?

MAYA
I glance over Riley's shoulder to look at Josh. We both looked at each other, praying that we would be paired up with each other.
" Joshua Matthews, Maia Devonne, Baby Shower," Ms Kelsi announced.
I looked over at Josh, shrugging his shoulders as he turned to face Maia at the back. I looked down. If he wasn't my partner, who is?
" Maya Hart, Lucas Friar, Family," she continued.
I turned my back, facing him.
" You and me, huh?" I smirked.
" Shall I propose?" he stood up.
I glared at him," Don't embarrass me," I warned.
He started walking towards me, " Maya Hart," he announced.
Everyone's eyes were on us, including Josh. I lowered my shoulders in embarrassment, preparing for the worst that was about to happen right in front of my eyes.
Once Lucas stood in front of me, he kneeled down.
" Will you do the honors," he took my small hand and placed it his big, yet comforting hands, " of becoming my fake wife?" he raised both of his eyebrows, hoping that I would say yes.
I looked around, every girl in the class was shaking with excitement, telling me to say yes. I was unsure of what to say. I looked at Josh, who had his face covered with no emotions at all. I turned back to Lucas.
I smiled, " Unfortunately Huckleberry," I stood up, smirking.
His face was full of regret that he did the fake proposal. His jaw hung low, not believing that I would actually do this in front of the whole class.
" I'll say yes," I smiled, looking down at him.
The whole class cheered as I chuckled. He stood up, beginning to tower over me with his 5"7 length body.
" Thank you for fake marrying me," he whispered in my ear.
I smiled," Thank you for proposing to me," I whispered back.
We both backed away from each other, laughing.
" Thank you, Mr and fake Mrs Friar for that wonderful play," Ms Kelsi announced as we took a seat, " But this isn't drama class yet," she pointed out as I looked over to Josh, who had a not so pleased look on his face as I looked at him.
I smiled softly with no return gesture from him as he faced Ms Kelsi as she continued on about our budget.
I placed my arm on Lucas' desk, as usual, as I sat comfortably, trying to listen to Ms Kelsi's explanation on our budget.
But I couldn't. The thought of Josh and Lucas in my head distracts me from it. I have Josh as my lovely boyfriend, and Lucas as my lovely fake husband.
The problem was, I think I'm falling for the fake one.
••
The bell rang, indicating that class was over.
" Ok class. This project is due the next two weeks and I expect full and excellent presentation. Class dismissed," Ms Kelsi pointed out as she moved over to the back of her desk, packing up and getting ready to leave the class.
The rest of the students stood up and continued to pack up. The sound of dragging chairs alerted me to stand up as well.
As I stood up, packing, I felt an arm swing over my shoulder. Thinking it was Josh, I placed my head on his shoulder, only finding out that it wasn't his.
I furrowed my eyebrows as I inhaled the scent that was not my boyfriend's. I looked up and saw him, Huckleberry, holding me as if I was his.
Well I technically am, but not really. I looked at the door, seeing Josh walk out with Maia, without waiting for me. Before exiting the class, he gave me one last look before continuing his conversation with Maia.
" Isn't this great?" Lucas asked as he pulled Farkle towards him the same way he did to me.
I did the same with Riley as we all sighed.
" The core four, working together," he said as he let go and walked towards us and spun on his heels, facing us," I mean, you and Farkle," he pointed towards Riley and Farkle, " doing Marriage, as Maya and I start a family," he looked at me.
I chuckled as I raised my brows, " Yeah, this isn't weird at all," I grabbed my bag as I walked out, looking left and right for Josh, but he was no where to be seen.
" So how many children do you wanna have?" I heard him from behind me.
Despite the fact that I couldn't see his expression, I knew that he was smirking. I turned around as I furrowed my eyebrows and shook my head at him.
I turned around as I headed to Drama, with them following behind.
" Farkle and I are planning to have a 7-tier cake with vanilla frosting," Riley piped up as she walked by my side.
" We didn't even plan anything yet," Farkle joined us, walking along Riley's side.
" Yeah, but I know we're gonna have the cake," she smiled at him.
I chuckled at their cute friendship. Knowing that they care a lot for each other, makes them even cuter if they were a couple.
I turned to my left to see Lucas chuckling at them as well.
" So, huckleberry," I said.
" Hmm?" he looked down at me.
" What are you getting me for our wedding," I asked.
He smiled as he shook his head, " Not yet, Maya. Not yet," he snickered.
I rolled my eyes, " I can't believe my very first wedding is going to look like a barn from the patch of hay to the cowboy hats people will be wearing," I whined.
Lucas faked a gasp as he put a hand on his chest. Oh his muscular chest. Stop it, Maya! You have Josh.
" Maya, are you stereotyping me?" he asked.
" I've been doing it since elementary school, get used to it, cowboy," I flicked his forehead.
School today was going to be more interesting than I expected.
