“I know your secret, how long did you mean to hide it from me?” I say with my tear running down my face.

“What secret?” he asks pretending he doesn’t know what I am talking about. Even now he had the chance, to tell the truth even if I already know it, if he did I would have been less mad at him.

“You are an idol, your name is Lucas and why didn’t you tell me any of this when I said I didn’t want anything to do with an idol?” I say scoffing, ignoring him once again. Does he even think about me?

“I was going to tell you when our relationship was fully stable and strong so that this wouldn’t happen,” he says calmly and sits beside me on the bed.

“You realize that I hate when people lie and I hate it even more if I have to find it out from someone else,” I say to push his hands away from mine. I don’t want to see him, hear him, talk to him or even be his friend.

I keep saying I am sad, I believe that’s because I started developing feelings for him. I should have stayed out of the relationship bubble like I told myself to.

“Who told you?” he asks when he sees that I pushed his hand away. He looks a bit angry, even so, he tries to stay calm, he knows that I will get angrier if he raises his voice at me again. “Xiaojun and I are friends,” I say shortly and he gets a shock.

His eyes were popped out and his words fell out, without thinking about it. “YOU WILL KEEP A FRIENDSHIP WITH XIAOJUN BUT NOT ME?!” he screams right out at my face, standing up with his thick thighs.

“DON’T START WITH THIS YOU LIED TO ME! XIAOJUN IS THE REASON I DON’T WANT any more PEOPLE THAT ARE IDOLS AROUND ME!!” I yell back even louder and higher than his voice.

His whole face falls and he tries to calm down, no eye contact with me. He covers his face with his hand and sighs out deeply. “I love you”.

Nothing more has to be said, he said it just to stop the fight. “You said it just to stop the fight,” I say angrily but with a low ton. I hate the fact that he uses those powerful words to make us stop without meaning them.

“I love you, I wanted to say that the day at the beach, but I felt like I should save it for a special moment. But it's better to confess now so that you understand why I kept it. I didn’t want to lose you” he says and tries to get my hand.

But I take it away quickly and give him a response he didn’t see coming. I feel terrible bad by the words I will tell him, only I know I don’t mean them. “I don’t love you Lucas” I say looking away from him, ignoring his broken look and lost eyes.

How could I lie to badly? Just because I don’t want to be with a lair, even so I wish I had the strength to give us a try at least as friends.
