Sean's POV:

Alex leans on me, smiling. Mark said to ask her about what Matty said when we're alone. I go for it.

"Um, Alex?" Alex hears the unease in my voice and sits up to look at me.

"Yeah?"

"Uh, Matty said something to Mark and I." She looks confused.

"What? What did he say?" Alex asks as if she already knows. I stare at her, looking her in the eye. Hoping that she isn't someone I don't know.

"He said that You and Georgia weren't as you seem. Exact words." She looks a bit uneasy, as if something was bothering her.

"Matty, Matty. He's like a brother to Georgia and I. He must've been trying to scare you guys off." Alex smiles warmly at me. I nod, content, and look out the window smiling.

Alex POV:

Wow. That's the first time I've ever lied to some one I love. Well, second. Georgia still doesn't know... I feel tears come to my eyes and decide to read a book to take my mind off of it. I open it to a random page and immediately my eye catches one specific sentence. Always tell the truth to ones you love, if they love you they won't leave. I stared at that one sentence the entire plane ride, Sean fell asleep. I woke Sean up when it was time to go. He smiled groggily at me and stood up, grabbing his carry-on. I did the same.

~~Time Skip to his house~~

"Home sweet home." Sean said happily. I look around, smiling. I text Georgia as promised.

A: Hey, we arrived at Sean's humble abode.

G: Did he ask?

A: Yeah.

G: And?

A: Uh, I told the story.

G: Ok. We can't let them know how old we are.

A: They have a right to know...

G: ...

(Ehhhh, I suck at this. SORRY! You just saw my total fail. Georgia, your turn.)
