The prince and the commoner {Jake x Tom}

can you keep a secret?

{flashback}

Ellie: Tom!!

Ellie barged into Tom's room, while he was cleaning.

Tom: eh-!? Oh, Ellie, what do you need?
Ellie: I need to tell you something!
Tom: uhm... Sure?

Ellie looked around outside Tom's bedroom door, she closed it and sighed.

Ellie: You have to keep this a secret, though...
Tom: I will!
Ellie: Tom, I'm lesbian... And I'm dating a girl

Tom's eyes widened, he didn't know what to do or say. He just looked at Ellie.

Tom: y-you are?
Ellie: yeah...

Tom smiled, he looked at Ellie as she fidgeted with her crown.

Tom: I'm happy for you!

Ellie smiled and hugged Tom, she pulled away and looked up at him.

Ellie: you can't tell anyone, okay?
Tom: okay..?
Ellie: uhm- I need a favor too...
Tom: sure?
Ellie: I need you to help me sneak in and out tonight!

Tom's eyes widened in shock, again. He pinched the bridge of his nose and shook his head.

Tom: I can't do that!
Ellie: please, Tom!! Do it Gabby!
Tom: Gabby- The maid!?

Ellie blushed in embarrassment, she didn't mean to blurt that out. The words had fallen out of her mouth. She nodded slowly and looked away. Tom smacked his forehead with his palm, he looked at Ellie and sighed.

Tom: Fine. I'll do it for gabs..
Ellie: Thank you, Tom!!

Tom nodded, Ellie ran out of his room. She ran towards her room where Gabby was folding clothes.

Ellie: hey Gabby!! Tom said he would help us!!
Gabby: really? That's great!

Ellie walked over to Gabby and hugged her. Gabby reciprocated the hug. They both smiled and giggled.

Ellie: what time are we leaving?
Gabby: At midnight!
Ellie: okay! I'll see you then!

Ellie waved to Gabby as she started walking away. Gabby waved back to Ellie.
