I skimmed the alphabetized list for the S names. There was mine: Sheehan, Fiona. I prayed that for once in my miserable life I'd be just a little bit lucky and then slid my eyes over to the name next to mine. Harding, Todd. "Son of a bitch." (page 12)

Due to the increasing number of divorce, Principal Miller added new subject for senior in East Columbus High School. It named "Trying the Knot", a compulsory subject to be entered if they want to graduate from high school, a marriage education. Couples of the marriage will be chosen by computer. In their a-year-marriage period, they should earn for real money, do consultation every week, and more things the real couple do but it's pretty clear that they don't permitted in doing any physical consummation.
Fiona Sheehan, who is having crush on Gabe Webber, wishes that she would be 'married' with him. But the fortune is not with her. So instead of being Gabe's bride, the computer chooses Todd Harding as her groom. While Todd's girlfriend, Amanda Lowell, is the one who becomes Gabe's bride. The thing is, it's okay if she got anyone (even she would be pleased if she got the big guy like Johny Mercer, Marcie—her friend—'s couple in fake marriage), but please no Todd. In her eyes, Todd is a 'brass ring', not a 'golden ticket' like Amanda said. Worse is he is Amanda's girlfriend, well.. Amanda always calls her Pee-ona instead of Fiona because she ever wet her pants in a pony ride long time ago. No doubt Todd will do the same prank on her (or worse), since they don't have brain, she thought.
What will happen next after the match? Will Fiona and Todd turn into a lame theory like from hatred to love? Will Gabe love her back? And what about Johny? He's too kind to Fiona, he even take the blame for him although it must be Fiona to blame due to her stupid prank on Todd.
Read this and you'll laugh out loud just by reading Fiona's actions. :p
