We all know of the baby project in health class. When you're given a fake baby and a partner to act as the daddy with you to act as the mommy.
"This baby project will be over the course of three months."
I want breadsticks.
"Now, you and your part...
The lights flickered off and I felt as if time flew by as I sat next to Alessandro watching everyone's health family video. My leg bounced uncontrollably as I felt the need for everyone to like our video.
Soon enough our video thumbnail popped up. My breath hitched but not because of the video but because Alessandro put his hand on my upper thigh and squeezed.
"It's gonna be great," Alessandro whispered in my ear. I looked in his screen lit eyes and smiled.
"You're amazing," I whispered back with a grin on my face. Just as Mrs. Hannigan pressed play Alessandro grabbed me by the arms and sat me right in the middle of his lap.
"A family means trust, love, secureness, respect, responsibility, etc. It can mean so many other things to so many other families. This family, in particular, is big on love and fun." The picture starts moving with the others as the narrator still talks.
A kid from front row pipes up, "Is that Morgan Freeman?" I shrink in Alessandro's lap. I crossed my arms pretending I didn't remember setting up a small meeting with him to get him to do this. Sure it took Alessandro's money but we still pulled it off.
I loved my outfit to the meeting though. Made me feel like the one in charge. It was a black deep v-neck jumpsuit with my favorite heels.

"Through their everyday lives, their love still advances at abnormal rates. It's positively heart melting." It was beginning to get to the part in the flower field. I smiled knowing that what was coming next would dominate.
"With every step forward in their careers, their personal life takes a leap." At the word leap, It showed Alessandro kneeling and as we called it everyone in the room gasped. I smiled feeling the cool metal and diamonds against my finger. We let in a little audio from his speech to not confuse the audience. "I promise to love you 3,000." A round of awes was let out even by the boys.
"Their love story and family will continue to grow as life gets more challenging but together they will dominate." It finished with me nodding then cutting to a picture of all of us including Zeus and Hera. It was our family and I couldn't bear the thought of turning in our doll baby. Alas, the bell rang and we set her down with all the other naked dolls. In my hand, I held her Gucci dress and Chanel sandals.
