True Love//Troye Sivan

Chapter Twenty-One

"What? No I don't," I said to her.

"Yes you do...tell me what it is,"

"No."

"Yes."

"Okay, so I was in the hospital..."

"Yea, I know you were. Skip to your secrets."

"Well, I might of kissed a boy."

Oops, spilled the beans.

I didn't actually expect the reaction I was hoping for. Connor looked up and partially spilled his coffee, and Emma was just really surprised. I don't know why though...I'm nineteen with a boy in a coma as a boyfriend.

"Really, no ones going to say a word?" I asked.

"I'll say something if you'd like." Trevor asked from behind me.

"Shut up Trevor." I said.

"You kissed someone?" Connor asked.

"I literally just said that." I said.

"Wait, I'm confused, I thought you were dating Troye," Connor asked

"I know! I am! But still, does that make me a bad girlfriend?"

"Yes! Do you not know what being a girlfriend means? It means that you can't go out kissing strangers whenever you want!" Emma yelled.

"But he was so sweet and..."

"THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU KISS STRANGERS!"

"Emma! He wasn't a stranger! I got to know him!"

"Kat, you never know what's going to happen! He could secretly be a serial killer!"

"So he's a serial killer disguised as a cancer patient?"

"Yes! You probably got distracted by his cancer!"

"He wouldn't lie about having cancer! Even if he was a serial killer."

Then there was a weird moment of silence.

"Wait, I have a question," Trevor asked.

I turned around to Trevor, a little bit pissed.

"What?" I asked.

"Why would a serial killer be tracking you down in a hospital?"

"HE'S NOT A FREAKING SERIAL KILLER!" I yelled.

"How do you know? Even we know a lot about him so far and you only told us that you two kissed." Connor said.

"You don't even know him name," I said.

"Then what is it?" Emma asked.

"Matthew Espinosa."

Once I said his name, a shock went up my spine like how it did whenever I said Troyes name after he went into a coma. I don't know what it's supposed to mean though; maybe I have a crush on him. Maybe not.

After Connor and Emma settled down about the whole kissing thing, we decided to watch a movie. We didn't know what movie, we just knew we were going to watch one.

Trevor was looking through a basket under the television full of old movies.

"Hey what about this one!" He said holding up a movie.

"Maybe, what's it called?" Connor asked.

"I have no idea. But it's about a girl who loses her soulmate to a coma and goes out kissing strangers. Coincidence, right?"

"Shut up, Trevor." I said.

"Sounds interesting, put it in." Connor said.

"Maybe we should just order out and not watch a movie, what do you think, Emma?" I asked.

"What? Um, yea, sure." She responded blocking out the world and only concentrating on whatever was on her phone

"Okay, then what did I just say?" I asked.

"Something about something."

"Okay, who are you texting?"

"Just a friend,"

"Emma, I know all your friends; Connor, Trevor, me, and like four other people from school who you never keep in touch with."

"Yea, I made a new friend."

"Really! Who!" I said sounding like a mom to a kindergartener who just made a new friend.

"I can't say,"

"Why not?"

"Because...why do you even care?"

"I don't know, I just want to know,"

"I second that!" Trevor screamed.

"What, you think I have a secret boyfriend or something?"

"Well now I do!" Trevor said standing up and walking over to her.

"Hey, I told you my secret, you tell me yours." I said.

"What secret? That you kissed someone?"

"Yea, you wanted it and I told you it,"

"C'mon, tell me about your secret boyfriend," Trevor said.

"You mean you? I kind of think everybody already knows about that."

"So what? Kat kissed a serial killer and Emma's secretly dating someone other than Trev?" Connor came out and said.

"Shut up! It's literally just a friend! Nothing else!" Emma screamed.

"Then tell us," I asked.

"Okay, but only if all of you promise not to tell anyone." Emma asked.

"Okay, talk away." Trevor said.

"Oh God, here it is," She took a breath, "I'm getting Connor a cat for his birthday."

Connor yelled "Yay!" And I just rolled my eyes.

I could tell, that wasn't any secret.
