have an amazing day <3
Jay and I were on patrol duty.
It wasn't common that we were paired up. In fact, Jay was supposed to be patrolling with Kai but then something came up. Lloyd then turned to me and said that I should patrol with him. I acted very neutral in that case but I was actually freaking out. I didn't get to patrol with my boyfriend often. Since the team wasn't aware of us dating, offering to patrol with Jay or vice versa would've been bait.
Although, tonight headed in a different direction in terms of topic.
"We can't keep this a secret anymore," Jay told me. I turned to look at him with a raised brow. I was afraid he was talking about something specific.
"Keep what a secret?"
"Us."
I took a deep breath in, letting his words process in my head. He wanted us to just out our relationship? I relaxed my face and Jay was now looking at me as well instead of the city below us. I jumped to sit on the billboard that was in front of us, people watching as I saw the cars passing by. I felt his concerned stare. "Why? Did someone get suspicious?"
"Well...yes- but no! I mean- ugh. Sure, Nya is catching on to us but..." He looked out in the distance and heard the slight clack of his head hitting the billboard behind him. In a way it was where he could rest his head. "I wanted to tell them for a while now. I don't like lying to them. They tried setting me up on two blind dates this past week and do you know how awful I felt standing those girls up?" Honestly, I hated the fact that he was going to go on dates.
At the same time I felt bad because those woman were being set up because Jay never showed up to any of them. I was on edge whether giving him the green light to go as a friendly gesture but they weren't there to be friendly.At the end, it was Jay's decision. Jay lied about them to everyone and they believed him. Surprisingly, Kai didn't hear the bad news from the girls since he was the one mainly organizing it.
Unfortunately, Jay was right.
Lying felt terrible and it was a miracle that we kept it from them for this long. Over two years to be exact. We first kept it quiet because we wouldn't want to announce it and then say that we broke up. Jay didn't exactly want to have another public breakup. We gave it six months and things started to soar from there. We kept on pushing the date as to when we wanted to tell them. At the same time, having a secret relationship felt a bit scandalous and it was the rush of adrenaline that kept it a secret.
I guess that pool had dried up.
I gave out another sigh, taking off my hood to really feel the night air prickle at my skin. I chuckled half-heartedly, "it was fun while it lasted huh?" He scooched closer, his hood down as well and he rested his head on my shoulder.
He huffed out of his nose. "Yeah. I will miss those two am runs to the convenience store and the motel dates." I started reminiscing about those times, wrapping my arm around his shoulder and pulling him closer. They were the only ways to get privacy. Of course his parents knew we were dating and the kept it a secret from everybody for us.
I smiled. "Even when we snuck into each other's bedrooms just to cuddle. I will miss those times with you."
"We will still be able to do it."
"You and I both know it won't be the same. At least I am ninety-nine percent sure that we won't break up and have to deal with everyone knowing." He lifted his head from my shoulder with an amused look on his face.
