We had taken to flaunting our 'love' in front of the others- but passing it off as 'banter' every time.
They had no clue.
We started sleeping in the same bed, sitting so close whenever we could, going on trips far away so we could hold hands in public.
But not busy public.
No one could know yet- it was our secret.
We went everywhere together.
'Did you guys sleep well?' Simon asked over his cereal when we went down for breakfast one morning- together.
'Sure.' Vik said, looking at me out the corner of his eye.
Truth is, we hadn't slept at all.
'Get up to much?' Josh asked passively.
'Nah... Recorded some videos, had sex, slept. The usual.' He winked at Josh, and Simon and Cal laughed.
'When are you guys going back to the flat?' Simon asked Cal.
'I dunno. I think Lux has pretty much moved in with Sarah, but I guess we'll be gone soon. The man who's fixing the leaks said it shouldn't take longer than a month.'
The whole 'leak' thing was a lot worse than we thought. Basically, all the pipes in our flat were bust. Turning on a tap, or the heating, or a shower could flood the whole flat, so we moved out pretty abruptly- into the Sidemen house.
'I think he said a bit longer...' I muttered. I didn't want to leave- more like, I didn't want to leave Vik.
'Either way, we won't be here much longer.' Cal said, giving me a funny look as I fiddled with the hem of my shorts.
'I guess not.' I said sadly.
Vik's hand brushed mine under the table.
'Oh well- it's not like we're that far to visit, is it?' Simon said cheerily.
Too far, I thought. Too far for my liking.
