Lunchtime in the student lounge/ drama room

"Chosen one!" whispered someone in Senkhara's voice.

"WTF! Senkhara!" said Nina out loud and everyone giggled.

"Just me. Fabian!" he said

"Well don't scare me like that!" she said and hugged him. "How was sibuna last year then."

"Well, for the record, it was much easier than the second year of sibuna. Well everything except the fact about Frobisher!" he giggled and she just screwed her face.

Patricia's POV

*Eddie walks up to me*

"There's something I need to talk to you about!"they both said at the same time.

"You go first."Eddie told me.

"OK. You and me should get married on the week of the 1st of July. We also need to tell our parents we're getting married."

"Well that bit I'm not looking forward to." Eddie replied

"We need to do it someday or we're just gonna look stupid being at our wedding with no parents!"

"OK." He said back, "I'll tell sweetie now." He said walking off. I guess I'll have to tell those snotty parents of mine now as well.

Eddie's POV

Man this sucks. The look on dad's face is going to be priceless. I hope he's gonna be ok with it. But he can't do anything, right. We're eighteen and can get married whenever we want without any flipping parents touching any shit. Well whatever, here it goes.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

"Enter!"called sweetie from his office.

"Dad. Um. There's something I need to talk to you about."

"Well, what is it."

"Umm. This is hard." I whispered. "OK dad. I proposed to Patricia and she said yes. Meaning I'm marrying Patricia."

"Okay. Well I'm happy for you, Edison. Good luck!"

"Thanks dad." I replied.

I walked out of the room to see Patricia sitting on a window ledge.

"How'd it go." She said whilst eating a bag of crisps

"Not bad!" I said back to her. "How was it with you, Yacker?"

"I haven't done mine yet." Said Patricia.

"Well, take all the time you need." I said back to her, kissing her forehead.

She smiled back at me. I smiled back.

Patricia's POV

How am I going to put it too my parents? They'll be well mad. All I could say in my defence would be fuck you! Nah, just kidding. Like I told Eddie, we have to do it sometime. I sat down and ate another crisp before taking my phone out of my bag.

I dialled my mum and waited for her to pick up. She didn't. I gave it more attempts but I realised I was just wasting my time. I was about to call it a day for this but, suddenly, she called back.

"Hello? Patricia Kate! How lovely to hear from you! Are you in detention?"

"No, mum of course not. I've changed. A bit. Anyway there's something really important I need to tell you,"

"What is it?" she said in her posh accent. She seemed incredibly in a good mood. I didn't really want to ruin it. But I had to say.

"I'm getting married with Eddie. You know that boy Piper was blabbing about, saying she was happy that I had Eddie. Well, he engaged and I said yes!"

"How could you, Patricia!" she replied. I knew she would react like this. "You've disappointed me. You're too young!"

"Please mum. I'm eighteen, old enough, and Eddie is the love of my life! He's the cherry on top! Please tell me you're ok with it. Yes or No."

"I am going to say-"
