My Double Life

Chapter 24

Skylar's POV

"You know, the whole illegal fighting thing. You seriously didn't think I didn't know did you?" She whispers

"W-what, but how?" I nervously ask

How could she.. has Victoria told her perhaps? Did she finally get the evidence she needed to expose me to my friends?

"You remember the time we were hanging out at your house and I spilled sauce on my shirt then you told me to go to your room and find a top for myself?" She asks and I nod my head.

We were cooking up quite a meal that day for my dad because he was working till late and I wanted to surprise him.

"I couldn't find anything that I liked in your closet but I found a backpack and I thought maybe there could be something that will attract me. There wasn't any clothes but I did find a mask and some bandages. I didn't think much of it until one day when I was with Ray and he couldn't stop talking about how skilled SkyHigh is as a fighter. I asked him to show me a picture of SkyHigh and he showed me one of the night you fought with Kendrick. I saw the mask and instantly remembered seeing it in your room, I didn't tell Ray though don't worry about it. After that, I always paid attention. Whenever we wanted to hang out, you would say you had things to do and it would always be when SkyHigh had a match. That's when I put two and two together." She explains

Damn...

Wow, I'm impressed no lie. I'm at such a loss of words right now

"Also considering that your name is Skylar and your stage name is SkyHigh, it was an easy guess." She chuckles

"Yeah, I didn't really think that through." I chuckle "Why didn't you confront me about it though?" I curiously ask

I mean, she could've told anyone about her discovery but she chose to stay quiet.

"It was your secret to tell, not mine. I wanted you to tell me yourself when you were ready." She explains

Gabbriela is truly an amazing friend. I'm extremely lucky

"Yeah that was not going to happen anytime soon. Knowing my identity is huge Gabb and you should not tell anyone about it okay if this information gets into the wrong hands, things are not going to end well for all of us." I say covering my face with both my hands

"Why? Are you in some sort of a cliche mafia?" She laughs

Not ententirely but something like that. .

"Not exactly, it's hard to explain. Just don't tell anyone. I'm already trying to figure out a way to keep Vicky dear's mouth shut." I let out a frustrated groan

She looks at me eyes wide and I simply nod

"She's going to make your life hell Skylar, she already dislikes you." She says panic clear in her voice

Tell me about it..

"Don't worry about it. As long as she doesn't have any evidence to prove it, I'm good and so far she doesn't have any." I tell her and she eases a bit

"What are you going to do?" She asks and I shrug

Yeah, what am I going to do? Now that Gabby knows, I really need to take extra care about my identity. Who knows how many other people have figured it out. Randy will kill me, literally.

"All done!" The twins announce in unison taking me out of my thoughts

I smile at them and take the plates away coming back to wipe the counter
