Leah's POV

T sped up her pace and suddenly, right before I'd came, the doorbell rang. T and me looked at each other. Who was that?  

"Is that Katherine?" T asked as I got up, taking my phone.

"No, she didn't sent me a text." I said while looking at my text messages. Meanwhile T was dressing me again.

"I'll go look through the window." T said and walked to the window. She hid herself good because we didn't want the person at the door to see her. Suddenly T gulped.

"What? Who's there?"

She walked to the door. "Baby, I need you to hide in our room."

I blinked. "Why? Who's there?"

"Just go, please."

I didn't want to go without knowing who it was, but the way she said it... I just nodded and got upstairs. When I was in our room, I hid underneath our bed, no way someone was going to come in here and look underneath the bed.

T's POV

I sighed deep before opening the door. "Hey girls." I said as I let them all in.

Heather, Charlotte and Mary were all looking around.

I closed the door and walked with them to the living room. "So, what's up?" I asked them, smiling. I didn't want them to know I was uncomfortable and stressed to have them here.

"We thought we'd visit you." Charlotte said, looking around. Heather and Mary kept looking around as well.

"Uhm... What are you trying to find?" I asked, making them all look at me.

"We had hoped to meet your girl." Heather said to which the other two nodded.

I gulped. "Well she's not here now."

"Where is she? It's weekend." Mary said, tilting her head to the side.

They were all looking at me. I wanted to say something good, but I didn't know anything. Think!

"I think we finally found out that there's no girlfriend." Heather said, shaking her head no. "Talia, you shouldn't make up a girl. We won't hate you for being single." she said to which they all stood up.

"But I - "

"It's fine, we understand, kinda." Charlotte said, and so they all walked to the front door.

"But girls, I - "

"We'll see you on Monday." Mary said and so they left.

I leaned against the closed door, I felt miserable. I really wanted them to meet Leah, and see how amazing she is, but I can't.

Suddenly someone cleared their throat, making me look at them. "Hey baby." I said soft.

"So, I heard everything." she said, she seemed sad too. She walked to me and hugged me tight. "Baby, I'm not going to stop you anymore."

I pulled back a little and looked at her. "W-what?"

She smiled. "Tell them."

I quickly shook my head no. "Not a good idea."

"Baby, I know it's not safe to say that, but they're your friends. I know they'll be happy for you." she said and caressed my cheek. "Beside, you being a teacher and me being a student shouldn't be that hard for them to accept."

I looked down, I know it wasn't. The thing is, and she didn't know, that my friends didn't like Leah. Well maybe Charlotte and Mary do, but Heather doesn't. And she's my best friend! I don't want to lose her... "Baby, it's fine, I don't care about them." I said and hugged her again.

"Are you sure?" she asked as she wrapped her arms around my neck.

I nodded. "100% sure."

"Ok."

Suddenly I smirked.

"What's wrong?" Leah asked me, backing of a little, but I held her close to me.

"Let's continue where we left of."

She smiled and kissed me.

Leah's POV

Even though T had told me she didn't mind her friends not knowing about us, I knew it bothered her. But the thing is that she didn't told me what exactly bothered her.

All afternoon, we stayed in bed, making love. I loved feeling her so close to me, I loved kissing her, hugging her, holding her, feeling her soft skin... I loved being with her. I never want to lose her, but I knew that once someone finds out, that chance gets bigger...

When we weren't making love, we layed in each other's arms, me on T's chest, our legs intertwined. We didn't say anything, we just layed there, which was the best.

But still, all that time, I kept thinking about what'll happen if T's friends knew. Maybe T should just tell them. But I wonder if they'll still believe her. I mean, they think she made up a girl... Poor baby.

Maybe I should tell them... What'll happen if I tell them? They'll probably laugh at me. Or the opposite, they'll be so mad. Miss Stone actually accused me from kissing up to T... Imagine me telling her that I'm engaged to T... She'll kill me.

I sighed deep. Why does this have to be so difficult? I mean, we were in love, we loved each other so much and we were going to get married. Nobody should take that away from us, right? Love is love, right?

All these thoughts kept going though my mind, the many 'what if...' questions were the worst. I always thought about the worst possible scenarios. 

Like: what if they're not agreeing with our relationship, and they'll turn T in to the police... That'd be my worst nightmare. I'd lose T, how am I supposed to survive without my baby?

And what if T breaks up with me because her friends aren't okay with this... I know T would be miserable, but the fact she'd do that... I'd never be able to look at her again. But still, how big is the chance that she'd actually do that... I know her friends mean so much to her, but I do too, right?

I'm so scared of losing her that I'm making up these stupid scenarios. I know we'll stay together forever. I just hope that our friends and family won't make our path to our future to hard...
