The next day after Vicky’s confession of love we meet up again outside my house to walk to school again there’s no Wendy. This gives me and Vicky the chance to talk about what happened previously and with Vicky’s lack of confidence and embarrassed nature she didn’t want everyone asking her a load of questions and asked politely can we keep it a secret from everyone.
I agreed and we carried on as normal though snakingly holding hand or getting a quick kiss whenever we could. Then on dinner later that day Vicky runs down the hallway to see me and tell me "Tracy and kylie know about us... they cornered me in the girls toilets and made me confess I’m sorry" this was fine by me thy were close friends of mine as well and we ate dinner together kylie even moved out of the way for me and Vicky to sit next to each other.
Things were fun we had a secret together which only a handful of people knew and walking home was nice just us 2 for the rest of the week. We even saw each other outside of school a lot and by the end of the week my mum and dad was telling me to bring her in they wanted to meet her (the most embarrassing time for us both.)
Vicky hides just behind me face red as a tomato with embarrassment "mum dad this is Vicky she’s my girlfriend" i said as Vicky waved her hand close to her chest still half behind me and half at my side only saying "hello" in a super cute embarrassed voice. We were asked to sit down and chat and for the life of me i don’t remember what was said. Must have been traumatically embarrassing, all i do remember is going in to the conservatory with Vicky giggling as soon as we sat down to watch TV.
This was nice as it felt like this was our little area even if just for the rime being just the two of us on an old settee watching an old TV with the first five channels only (remember the analogue days... that’s what this was) Vicky snuggled up to me and we were comfortable for a couple of hours until my mum came in and said to us " come on now duck, it’s time for you to go home , rob you walk her back" and kike the gentleman i am, i walk her home.
The next day we meet outside my house again and Wendy is there this time, still unknowing of our relationship, or at least from our point of view she was unaware. The walk that consisted of mainly Wendy getting in-between us as if to make a statement of disapproval.
Regardless we made it to school and carried on like always a sneaky kiss here and there. But we were still keeping it secret and we did for a total of 6 months. Vicky has turned 15 now but yet we still haven’t progressed father then a kiss.
Then things changed. We had our first proper argument, i wanted to show the world how much i loved her and she didn’t want me to.
Throughout the course of this argument students became aware of a rift between me and Vicky and were asking the question "are they dating or something?" And after being asked once too many times and wanting to prove a point i told everyone the truth " yes we are and have been for six months" i said with Vicky in full view, stood next to Wendy who have a face like she had seen a ghost on her and Vicky mad.
Vicky didn’t speak to me the rest of the day even on the walk home and it was only Wendy asking questions "really six months" she said followed quickly by a "i didn’t think he was your type Vic" i rolled my eyes thinking yeah thanks for that.
The rest of the walk was silent as nobody wanted to answer and to be honest me and Vicky just wanted to be alone to talk. We made it to my house and Vicky said " i will see you in a little bit babe" followed by a kiss on the cheek. This surprised me as i thought she was still mad. I replied "yh ok se you then " and went in.
Later on Vicky did come round to my house and wasn’t mad at all. She greeted me with a smile and all was well. We spoke about it all and Vicky apologised for wanting to keep it secret from everyone and said it was wrong of her to ask. But now it was out in the open she was happy. Now she could walk hand in hand with her boyfriend and kiss him whenever she wanted to. So she thought.
