Marriage-Hood

By: Rita Marie

Chapter One

A lot of you may think life is easy, and fair right? Wrong. When you have adults planning things out for you, and your future, you may feel as if you have no control. That's how I feel right now.

So Random, and Mackenzie Fall's cast are in class right now, being controlled by Ms. Bitterman, having no say on anything she is planning out. Guess what her new bright idea is- she is pairing us with a person of the opposite show, and gender. And, she is making sure to pair us with someone that is completely opposite towards how we act. Oh, and guess why we have to be paired up- an arranged marriage, that she is planning out. She figured since we were studying, and learning about India, and how they use arrange marriages, that we should test it out. I don't mind learning about other countries, but if we have to live how they do, it sucks all the fun out of it.

She is going through her desk right now, looking for her list that has each persons pairings on. I'm praying over here, hoping to get someone cute, and has manners. If I'm going to be married to a Fall's guy, I want him to be worth the month we are doing this. But then again, he is going to be the opposite of me.

"Okay students, I have the list right here. Now, if you all will be respectful, and not have any comments to who your partner is, their won't be any problems." She stated, standing in front of Grady's seat, which happens to be in the front of the classroom.

"I will start down each row, and state the names." She said with no emotion in her voice. I looked around, and saw everyone was chewing on their nails, with a worried expression.

"Okay Grady, you are going to be paired with, Chloe." Ms. Bitterman said, looking at the two of them after she said it. They both turned towards each other, and gave a light smile. Ah, they will get along fine, I heard Grady talking about how cute Chloe was, to Nico the other day.

"Nico, you are going to be with, Portlyn." Ms. Bitterman said, looking at the two of them for a brief second, before looking back at her list. Nico winked at Portlyn, while her cheeks turned a light shade of pink.

"Tawni, you are going to be with, Devon." Ms. Bitterman said, scowling at Tawni. Apparently, ever since Tawni, and I were caught almost-cheating, she has always held a grudge over us. Tawni let out a light squeal, and turned towards Devon with a wide-smile.

"Zora, you won't be participating in this particular assignment, due to some circumstances that will be happening, so you will be grading my tests, that haven't been graded yet." Ms. Bitterman said smiling at Zora. Yeah, the only person she actually likes in this class is Zora, probably because she is a little-genius. Zora just nodded her head, and went back to drawing on her hand.

I looked around the room, and saw each pair, starring at their partner- smiling. I was the only one that hasn't been called yet, so I looked around the room, and saw everyone else had a partner, except for one person. Oh, hell no. No way, no how, not possible; Ms. Bitterman would not pair me with, him.

"Sonny, your are the last person, and you will be with the other last person on the Fall's cast," Ms. Bitterman said, standing in front of me. I looked up at her, with a horrid face. "Sonny, you will be with, Chad." She said, turning away from us, and walking back to the front of the classroom. I stood up in my seat, in a flash.

"Ms. Bitterman, I can't be with Chad, we will never survive this marriage. Never." I said looking over at Chad with disgust. He just smirked, and sat in his seat, watching this un-fold in front of his eyes.

"Are you testing my authorities, Ms. Munroe?" She asked with a scowl. I was speechless, if I say something back, that was near the word- yes, I will be a goner. But, me, being myself, had to go down the right path, and not test her authorities.

"No ma'am." I said sitting down with a huff. I turned, and looked at Chad. He had the biggest smirk of all-time-history. I glared at him, and turned my head, to look back at Ms. Bitterman.

"Now, I want each of you to go sit with your partner, and that will be your new seat for the month." She said sitting down, at her desk. I gathered my things, and went to the desk, next to Chad's.

"Hey wife," Chad said chuckling. I glared at his immaturity. "Listen Chad, you may find this funny, and as a joke, but this is serious, so why don't you be mature about it, and take it seriously." I said looking ahead of me.

"Whatever Munroe, I'm more mature then you think. I'm just trying to be civil." He said scoffing. "Okay, well then, take this seriously, and stop joking about it." I said crossing my arms. "Someones moody today," He said chuckling again. I was about to protest, but Ms. Bitterman cut in.

"Okay now, to make this more realistic, you are each going to live with your partner, and it's going to be at the guys house. Oh, and just so you each know, and can't protest, I sent emails out to each of your parents, for them to approve, and they all did." She said. Oh no, no way my mom would approve of this, she would never let me stay at a boys house.

"Ms. Bitterman, I think your mistaking this, my mother would never approve of this." I said protesting. "For your information Ms. Munroe, your mother was one of the most approval parents," She said looking at her face in a compact mirror, and scowling in it. Weird women.

I shut my mouth, and sat there quietly. Then, I looked over at Chad, and saw he was looking at me smiling. "What?" I asked harshly. He just sat there still smiling, then his smile turned into a smirk. "I just want to let you know something," He said sitting back in his seat. "Oh, and what's that?" I asked. "Just that, we are going to be living at my apartment, that I bought a year ago." He said smirking. "Okay, and?" I asked confused. "Well, since it is my apartment, you know that means it's just me living there, with no adult-supervision, so anything could happen with just you, and I in there... alone." He said winking at me.

I sat there blushing deep red. Was he trying to tell me that he was going to put moves on me? Inappropriate moves on me? It could only mean that right? I suddenly felt nervous of this assignment. We are going to be alone, for a month, in the same house; and if I know Chad, he will make sure to embarrass me somehow.

After Ms. Bitterman explained a few more things about this deal, the bell rang loudly, to signal it was time to go home for the day. I won't be going back to my house, and sleeping in my bed, how I usually do when I come home, I'll be driving with Chad, to his house, for the next month, sleeping there. Oh, happy joy.

A/N: Well, here's the first chapter of my new story. I hope you like it so far, be sure to review, and share any ideas you have for future chapters.

I do not own anything.
