I Can't Let You Go

Chapter 5

Garrett's POV
It was 5:45, and everyone was supposed to show up at Lindy and Logan's house at 6:30. So, while Logan was upstairs going to the bathroom and getting food, Lindy and I decided we should have a little time to ourselves. I still can't believe that I have a girlfriend! And she's not virtual like Candy, she's real! Lindy layed her head on my shoulder.
"I am so afraid I am going to slip and say something about us dating." She said softly as we gazed into each other's eyes.
"Is Jasmine the only one who knows?"
"Yeah, but I feel weird that Logan doesn't know. I mean, after all, he is my twin, and he's your best friend."
"Maybe we should let him know. Why don't we just act like we are now when he comes back downstairs and then admit it to him. But he has to keep it a secret."
"I think he will."
"That's good." I moved my arm to around her back. I gave her a kiss on the forehead. From watching all those movies on TV, I think I was doing pretty good at being romantic.
"Hey guys I got some chips-" Logan stopped coming down the stairs the second he saw us cuddling, "What is going on here?"
Lindy stood up and walked towards Logan, "Listen, Logan. Garrett and I started dating yesterday."
"But you can't tell anyone we're dating." I added.
"Good job, Garrett! You got yourself a girl. But why my sister?"
"Because she's beautiful inside and out." I walked towards Lindy and kissed her on the forehead.
"Yeah, okay, this is just weird. So why can't I tell anyone again?" Logan asked.
"Now that you're dating Jasmine, and we're dating, we feel like if Delia found out, it would kind of be goodbye to her in the group. And I don't want that to happen." Lindy explained as I put my arm around her.
"This is just odd. But I guess I won't tell anyone as long as I can tell Jaz."
"She already knows." Lindy stated.
"So this is a secret we are keeping from just Delia?" Logan looked confused.
"Yeah. I know it sounds bad, but we don't want to break up, and you don't want to break up with Jaz, so this is how it has to be." I said just as the door swung open. My heart skipped a beat.
"What are you doing here?" I asked nervously.
