chapter 9

Mario's pov

I walk inside the house with relief, singing is over, Weston knows how I feel about him and Hunter, and.. what he did was really sweet.

Maybe I'll just watch a movie for a little. I walk to the living room, but am soon grabbed by Madison and dragged into her room.

"You good?" I laugh as she jumps onto her bed.

"YOU AND WESTON??" She squeals with excitement. My heart drops and instantly starts racing inside my chest.

"What?" Maybe if I play stupid she'll simply go away.

"I saw y'all holding hands in the backyard! Are you guys dating? I won't tell anyone!" She jumps. Damn she's hella jumpy.

"No." I squeak. "I got nervous when I was singing so, it happened. Weston's totally straight." I nod. I want to run out of the room so bad, but I decide against it.

"And you..?" She asks seriously. Shit.

"I..."

"Mario, you know I love you no matter what, right?"

"I'm gay." I blurt out. My body shakes, as I've never said those words, except to myself in the mirror.

Madison instantly embraces me in a hug, slightly calming my nerves.

"Don't tell anyone." I mumble. "I wasn't hitting on Weston I swear."

"Does anyone know?" Madison pulls me back, our hands locked.

"Nobody."

"Awh babe, we'll all love you no matter what, but your secrets safe with me." I sigh, breathing heavily.

"I know, I just don't know if I'm ready to tell everyone."

Madison's pov

I hug Mario and make sure he's okay before he excuses himself to take a nap. I continue laying on my bed, doing school work when I hear a knock.

"MADDIE!" Hunter opens the door soon after and jumps into the bed, cuddling into me.

"HUNTIE!" I mock him in a high-pitched voice.

"Can I take you on our first proper date?" He smiled mischievously.

"Of course." I beam. My heart races with excitement and my stomach churns in anticipation. "What do I wear?"

"You already look beautiful." Hunter smiles, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear.

"Lead the way then cuteness." I jump out of bed and take him by the hand. We walk outside and an uber is already waiting.

Hunter, being the classic gentleman, opens the door for me and then shuts it behind him. An asian women smiles at us and starts driving.

"Where are we going?"

"That's for me to know and for you to find out." Hunter smirks. I laugh and we play with the snapchat filters until we finally arrive at the secret destination.

"Thank you." Hunter high fives the driver, and we get out of the car, revealing an obvious roller-skating rink.

"Hunter, fans might be here and see us." I sigh.

"That's where you're wrong." Hunter holds the door and I walk in cautiously. It's empty except for two women with big plastered smiles and tired eyes.

"Guess who has the whole place to theirselves." Hunter grins.

"Oh my gosh!" I jump excitedly and drag him over to get our skates.

My favorite songs start playing over the loud speaker as we finish strapping our skates on.

"I'm actually really scared, why'd I plan this?" Hunter screeches with a smile, grabbing onto my hand tightly.

"I've gotchu." I squeeze his hand and guide him onto the wooden floor. In the first two secounds, we've fallen onto the ground, him on top of me.

"You're very heavy for the stick that you are." I mumble.

"It's the muscle babe." I roll my eyes sarcastically as we start rolling again. Hunter catches on quick and we spend our time screaming song lyrics at the top of our lungs and seeing who can do the coolest trick without breaking a bone.

"Are you hungry?" Hunter asks after two hours.

"When am I not?" I laugh. We skate to the tables and I play with my skates while Hunter talks to one of the lady, her then giving him a pizza box and two milkshakes.

I smile as he sets the box on the table and sits across from me. I grab a piece and we both start eating.

"This is perfect." I smile.

"I was hoping so. I really like you."

"You're too cute." I laugh

"True." He smiles and I laugh. "I'm bootylicious."

"Okay stop." I giggle. Finally, a slower song comes on, They don't know about us By one direction.

"May I have this dance?" Hunter holds at his hand and I take it. He leads me to the middle of the empty dance floor and holds me close.

"How'd you know I like this song?" I smile.

"I didn't. But it was appropriate. I know you don't want to be seen as a couple or a thing to the supporters, but you're too perfect to ruin anything. At the end of the day I'm fine with your decisions, but no one knows how much I really care about you."

I don't say anything, my eyes do it for me. I kept mine locked with his as we dance back and fourth. HE'S GONNA KISS ME!! Hunter leans in and I stand on my tip toes and finally, our lips meet. Nothings ever felt so right.

We finally pull away, hunters big pink lips leaving mine and we do nothing but smile.

A/N CUTE AND CHEESY ENDING.. SO SORRY.. DRAMA SOON THO LOVES
