Is Annie ready for the real world?
Little Annie Campbell gets the shock of her life when she discovers Belle and Lucas slept together and - gasp - they weren’t planning on getting married! The look on Belle’s face is priceless when the sheltered country girl reveals she assumed Lucas and Belle were obviously planning on tying the knot if they had taken such a big step. “You’re gonna get eaten up at school!” laughs the cheeky Belle Taylor. “The thought of marriage never entered our minds!”.
Lucas lays it down for Annie with a little more tact: it wasn’t as if he had a one-night stand with Belle – quite the opposite. He really cared about her and doesn’t think what they did was wrong or sinful. He points out that while he respects the rights of others to think that, it’s just not how most of his friends think.
Belle gives Annie a magazine to read from, assuring her it will explain everything.
