"It was Ashley." Marlene tells me at once and leaves. I stand with envy in my eyes. "Troian, are you okay?" Keegan asks stroking my arm. "Haven't been better." I say as my voice cracks. "It's okay, maybe it was a, miss understanding?" He suggests. "I can finally tell someone the truth." I say.

"What truth?" He asks raising an eyebrow. "Something happened between Ashley and I, and since that I've known how self conceited she really is." I tell him. "Tell Marlene, she'll totally understand!" He exclaims. "There's more to the story, Keegan. She swore something, she swore that if I ever did something she would be the one to ruin my career. I'm repaying for what I did." I tell him.

"Please tell me." He begs. "I can't, I want to tell you, but I can't." I say. "Baby." He says grabbing my hand, knowing I can't resist when he sweet talks me. "Fine, but can we sit down to explain this?" I ask him. "Of course." He says leading me to his couch, and I immediately let go of his hand.

Flashback

"It was a cold winter afternoon, and PLL was shooting season 4. Us girls were talking before we shot another scene. We were talking about who we liked, I was dating Patrick at the time, Shay, Sasha, Lucy, and Ashley were all single. I kind of liked you, I know, dorky, but you were so perfect. Anyway, Ashley told me that she had a crush on you, Keegan.

We all endlessly teased her, until one day you asked to go to that wrap party with me, when I was sad about Patrick having to cancel. We hit it off, and if I remember clearly you kissed my cheek, respecting I had a boyfriend. Ash got really jealous and afterwards told me that she called dibs on you, so I wasn't aloud to hang around you, when we are known as the best friendship off set, Treegan, and Spoby on PLL.

I told her, "Ash, we're just friends." But she swore that day, if I ever tried to get to you again, I'd pay the ultimate price, my career. She swore she would tell Marlene if I ever dated you or another cast mate.

End.

"So you've liked me ever since then?" He asks. "Mhm. I was too scared to say anything or talk to you, and I was afraid I'd fall even more in love with you, and I already betrayed Ashley." I say lowering my head. "Hey, Troi." He says lifting my chin up using his pointer finger. "Yea?" I ask staring into his beautiful, baby blue eyes.

"You're mine, Troian. Ashley, Marlene, no one, can take you from me. That's a promise I will always keep." He tells me. I give a small smile and lock my lips with his lips. "Thank you for understanding." I whisper as he kisses my forehead. He brings me in to a tight embrace. "You're the best boyfriend I've ever had." I whisper into his ear.

"You're the best girlfriend I've ever had. And the prettiest." He smirks, as I bite my bottom lip. "You're pretty cute yourself." I giggle kissing him again. "I wish loving you wasn't so hard." I whisper as our foreheads stay touched, and our faces inches apart. "It isn't hard, life makes love look hard." He smiles. "Isn't that in a Taylor Swift song?" I say, not helping but to laugh.

"Uh huh." He giggles. "You're such a dork." I tell him. "But I'm your dork." He replies taking my hand, holding it in his. "It's been an eventful day." I say leaning away from him. "And we barely got any time for us." He smirks. "We got plenty of time, you just want more of it." I smile. "Want to go to bed, so we're sure to be alone?" He asks me. "Yeah, sure." I agree standing up.

"By the way, you aren't getting this shirt back." I tell him running up the stairs. "I don't want it back, you look way better in it than I do." He smiles chasing after me.
