Alex woke up late the next morning thanks to Nat's yelling at him. He quickly got dressed and went to the living room. Guess I'm skipping breakfast today he thought to himself. However when he got out there, both Nat and Juanita were around Rosalina. Rosalina looked worried for some reason.

"What's going on?" Alex asked. Rosalina looked down, refusing to look him in the eyes.

"Rosalina lost her voice." Juanita answered.

"Oh no…"

"It's going to be ok I think Alex," Nat said, trying to lift everyone's spirits. "Did you guys already choose a song to sing to?" Rosalina nodded and frowned. She motioned with her hands that she was sorry. Instead of getting mad that they might be failing the assignment, Alex just kissed her cheek and smiled.

"We're married. We can do this," he said, lifting her chin up with his finger.

"Come on, we're late," Nat said, wanting to not see if they kissed more than on the cheeks.

"Aren't' you gonna ask Rosalina if she WANTS to go? Maybe she's too sick?!" Juanita yelled at Nat as they walked out of the room. Alex and Rosalina smiled at each other and followed behind.

Everyone had agreed to meet up at the rehearsal room to discuss how the assignment was going so far and for Jesse to answer any questions that may have come up. David came into the room holding his baby "Fred", feeding it a bottle with fake milk in it.

"Patty couldn't make it today. She had somewhere she needed to go," He told everyone. "Sorry."

"It's all good. So how is everyone doing with this?" Jesse smiled, looking around. "Give me updates so far. Thomas, you start."

"Well, me and Kristina came up with a story. And planned the wedding on the last day of this assignment. As for the songs, we haven't quite worked that one out yet."

"There's like 5 different songs we think describe the relationship," Kristina added in.

"Well you've got plenty of time to figure that out," Jesse laughed. "Nat, your turn."

"Well, we've been fighting a lot but we chose 2 songs to sing. One of them is "hate that I love you" and the other is "Still there for me". Cheesy but yeah….as for the story, still working on that too."

"Perfect. Your right on track. Alex?"

"Yeah, um…" Alex started, not sure what to say. "Well, we have 3 songs picked out. One for the theme, one for the dance and one for singing. But the thing is…Rosalina lost her voice." Rosalina nodded in agreement with Alex, smirking. Everyone looked at her and then Jesse. Jesse looked down thinking for a minute then said "Well then we'll cut that part out of the assignment. I've seen you dance, Rosalina. You two still have a chance," she told them.

Alex and Rosalina were the last ones to be able to use the back room for practicing to dance. David and Patty looked annoyed because the baby had apparently kept them from practicing too much. Thomas and Kristina weren't talking to each other for some reason and Nat was complaining about how much his feet hurt.

"What the heck happened to you?" Alex asked Nat.

"You know how Juanita is a good dancer, right?"

"Yeah…"

"Well, she on purposely stepped all over my feet."

"Ouch."

"Very! Where's some ice?" he mumbled to himself and limped off. Rosalina giggled and went into the room. It was kind of big with a huge stage completely empty for more room. There wasn't a lot of room for an audience, only like a few hundred people could fit in it. Jesse was in the back and greeted them, asking what song they wanted to dance to. Rosalina gave her a slip saying "So Close" and she put it on. When the first beat started, Rosalina and Alex got in a ballroom dancing position and slowly started moving to the music. Surprisingly, unlike all the other couples, they moved perfectly in synch. He twirled her around a couple of times and even lifted her up on one part of the song. Alex found himself only being able to look at her. The rest of the world just faded out. While she twirled around, he couldn't help but think of how beautiful she really was.

We're so close to reaching that famous happy ending, almost believing this one's not pretend…

The song seemed perfect to him. At the end of the song, they stood face to face, just looking into each other's eyes. Rosalina smiled gently at him and held his hand. They both leaned in and kissed. At first, not sure if it was ok, but when they realized both were kissing, the kiss deepened. She put her arms around his neck and he held her waist with one hand. The whole world faded away for just that moment in time.

The kiss was broken up by Jesse's applause.

"That was so believable!" She giggled. "Totally do that again later!"

Rosalina and Alex just stared at each other, not sure how to react to it all. Could it be maybe my happy ending is with…Alex? Rosalina thought.
