AN-Hi again, Okay, this is one of my favourite scenes (I've written all five chapters of this) I'm still going to put the explanation at the bottom, so read, enjoy and PLEASE review, It means a lot to me that I get some reviews for each chapter and not just the last one as this is in effect a series of one-shots.

OOO

'Is he on to me?' Sky wondered to herself as Boyd picked up the phone supposedly calling a priest.

"Isn't it good that we are getting married so young" Boyd said 'Ha, take that, two can play at this game Sky' he thought to himself

"Definitely" Sky smiled sweetly 'no way am I giving in, I'll go all the way to the altar if I have to'

"Hello" Boyd spoke into the receiver

Sky looked at him worriedly 'there's just no way he actually called a church' Sky thought as Boyd set a date for their 'wedding'

"Okay, it's done" Boyd's voice broke her train of thought "We can get married this Saturday at 3pm, It'll be an afternoon ceremony" Boyd sounded smug as he said it

"Good, I only wish it was sooner, Saturday is two whole days away" Sky said firmly

"That makes two of us, but I thought we should have time to find witnesses" Boyd struggled to find the excuse

"Okay" Sky said, sensing the conversation was over until Saturday, or even before that, depending on when he gave in she reminded herself optimistically

Friday (countdown: 1 day till wedding)----------

Stingray dived onto the couch of a bench as Boyd continued to talk to him.

"Anyway, so I probably won't need you because Sky is bound to give up soon but if we get all the way to the church we are going to need witnesses to the marriage, I need you to be one, okay?" Boyd pleaded

"Right, so Sky got David to help her pretend she wanted to get married, you found out and now you are actually going to get married"

"Sort of, well close enough anyway" Boyd conceded, it sounded stupider said out loud.

"That's spiggin' awesome" Stingray laughed, "I'm in"

That was when Boyd began to have some serious doubts, if Stingray thought it was a good plan, it was a worse plan than he had thought, marriage is a pretty serious thing.

Serena leafed through a magazine absentmindedly as she sat on the couch with Sky next to her.

"Come on Serena, just help me out here, I probably won't need you anyway but Boyd has to think I'm serious, I won't lose at my own game" Sky begged

Serena rolled her eyes "Sky, you do realise what you're doing here, what if Boyd's serious and you end up married, You're still in high school not to mention what Harold is going to think. I don't want any part in this ridiculous game"

Before Sky could protest the phone started to ring, Serena stood to answer it turning her back to Sky.

"Hello"

"Hey, Serena, it's Stinger is Sky in the room" he asked

"Yeah, I'll just get her for you" Serena said, disappointed that he wasn't calling for her

"No, don't" Stingray said quickly "Have you heard about this wedding"

"Sadly, yes" Serena replied

"Get the cordless phone and go into the other room, okay"

Serena did as she was told "What now, she asked him"

"How far do you think Sky and Boyd'll get" Stingray asked

"I dunno, but if Boyd's anywhere near as stubborn as Sky is about this all the way to the altar, I doubt they'd actually got through with the wedding though"

"Well Boyd's being such spiggin' hockey puck about the whole thing, I betcha $25 bucks this time tomorrow they'll be married" Stingray said enthusiastically

"I feel bad taking your money, because there is no way they are getting married, they'll make it to the altar if they're lucky but no way is Sky saying 'I do'"

"If you're so sure make it $50"

"You know what, I'm in, $50 bucks if they don't get married" Serena laughed "Besides, what exactly do you think they'll do once they are married, just continue on with their daily lives as husband and wife" Serena almost laughed at how stupid the whole thing was

"I don't think they'll divorce, maybe the wedding's a game, but their marriage wouldn't be, Boyd and Sky really love each other you know"

"Whatever" Serena said "just be ready with my cash tomorrow" and with that she hung up the phone and went back to the living room

"Hey Sky"

"Yeah"

"I'll do it"

"What" Sky asked, confused at her cousin's sudden change of heart

"I'll be a witness at your wedding"

It was then that Sky started to have major doubts, what if Boyd didn't back out, marriage was pretty serious stuff.

The Wedding-------------------------

Boyd waited outside the church in his tux, leftover from his aunt's wedding where he was in the bridal party. 'I knew she wouldn't show' he smiled to himself just as Serena showed up in a pale pink dress

"Hi, Sky said you aren't allowed to see her before the wedding" Serena said seriously, waiting for him to call the whole thing off

"But she's definitely coming" Boyd asked

"Yes, she's on her way" Serena replied

"I'll go talk to the minister and get everything ready" he glanced at his watch "but in 23 minutes when the bridal march starts to play, she'd better show" Boyd said, he smiled assuredly but his voice betrayed his worry, would he really be married, he was going to play this game to the end, but would that be until the end of his life…'til death do us part?

Sky watched from behind the church gardens as Serena spoke to Boyd, she could only see his back but even she could tell by the way he held his hands that he was nervous, he was ready to give in.

'But I'm nervous too and that doesn't mean I'm giving in' a paranoid voice in the back of her head reminded her

Sky sighed, marriage, married, Mrs. Sky Hoyland, she wasn't ready for all that. Harold would be furious if she got married, and Max would be worse. Stop worrying, she told herself, Boyd will back out and we'll be laughing about this tomorrow…Somehow thinking of herself and Boyd together laughing comforted her and she made her way to the room at the back of the chapel.

(about 20 minutes later)--------------------

Sky peeked out the door and saw the Serena and Stingray seated, they had opted to go without a bridal party not by any spoken decision but because neither Boyd nor Sky really saw this as a marriage. Boyd took his place and the bridal march began to play.

Sky took a deep breath and composed herself before stepping out into the aisle. She looked up and her eyes found Boyd's, suddenly the game didn't matter any more.

Boyd's breath caught in his throat as she walked towards him her eyes resting in his. The game was long forgotten as he looked at the simple white dress she wore and that was when it hit him…they were about to get married.

It seemed clichéd and lame as Sky thought it, but when it came down to it, their parents, their ages, their stupid game no longer held any value, in a single moment Sky realised that in the grand scheme of things all you needed was love.

OOO

Sorry the formatting etc. was a bit weird in this chapter, I wasn't sure how to fix it!

Explanation: Okay, sometime last year in Neighbours Sky and David played a trick on Boyd, convincing him she wanted to get married to scare him, when Boyd found out he played along to scare her and pretended to call a priest, Sky realised he hadn't really called a priest and they had a good laugh…this scene showed what would've happened if Boyd had really called a priest and both characters were just that little bit more stubborn.

Joke time-

What's the time Mr. Wolf?
