"Speaking of personal topics: How do you feel about sharing relationships online?"

I look at my manager before nervously trying to not make a big deal out of the question: "Um- eh. I don't, well, I don't think it would be right to share too much about it online, personally."

"Right, right. How do you feel about the rumors regarding you and fellow online persona, Dan Howell?", she just bursts out.

"Oh.", I look at Fleur who gets up immediately.

"Excuse me but this is supposed to be an interview about the line, not an investigation on her private life.", she says calmly.

"Well, that's what the fans wanted to know!", Jonathan now says.

"I, as her manager, don't agree with that question though."

"Fine. We can just continue with the next question and skip that one?", the interviewer asks and I nod.

The interview ends about 15 minutes later after we had a chat about my struggles with body image and how I want to change them.

We say our goodbye's and head straight outside, the car still in front of the building.

"I am so sorry for what happened. I'll make sure the interview is checked before it goes out and I'll email you before.", Fleur says outside.

I give her a weak smile: "Don't worry, it's fine. And thank you so much for even making this possible."

We hug one last time before she heads off to the opposite direction.

When Dan spots me, he jumps out of the car to hold open the door for me.

"How was it, princess?", he asks when he sits down next to me.

I shrug, my head held low.

"What happened?", he responds to that and pecks my cheek.

I sigh: "I don't know. She, ugh. She asked about you and I."

"What? What do you mean?"

"She asked me how I feel about the rumors about us."

"Oh fuck no. What did you say?"

"Nothing. Fleur demanded that the question is skipped."

"That's good, eh? I'm sorry it didn't go as planned, babe."

"Yea, it's just that I don't know how they feel they have the right to ask such personal questions. Do they expect me to be like: Hell yea I am dating the danisnotonfire and oh look at this promise ring and we moved in together and oh I love him so much!"

"Yea. Stupid.", he sighs, "I don't want to tell everyone about us. It's our little secret that I don't want to share."

The day is still young, so we decide to finally do something together and go Christmas shopping.

We just got to a little shop with art in it, when someone comes up to me: "Oh my god, are you Y/N?", a girl with an oddly familiar voice, which is maybe around thirteen, asks.

"Um- yes that's me, hi!", I respond, wondering why she knows who I am.

"Oh cool! I love your art, it inspires me so much. And your line sounds lovely too!"

"Wow, thank you so much that honest mean a lot to me. Whats your name?"

"No problem! And I am Evelina. Can we please take a picture?"

"Nice to meet you and of course!"

We take a picture, she thanks me one more time and disappears out of the shop.

I walk to the back of the shop where Dan is at.

To my surprise he doesn't have a happy expression on his face, which we would normally have in that kind of situation.

I raise my eyebrow at him.
Maybe he just didn't see.

"Don't tell me that was who I think it was.", he says.
