They Don't Know About Us

Our Little Secret

The next morning, Jerome sent me a text.

I had a lot of fun last night - J

(AND THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT US COMES ON ON 5SOS PANDORA. PERFECT TIMING.)

I sighed and told him I needed to talk to him. We agreed to meet at Timmy's in 20.

When I got there, I told him the one thing that I had been thinking of since last night.

"We have to tell them."

"But we can't. Think about it. Mitch will kill me. Becca won't talk to you, that is, if she doesn't kill you. Mitch would get mad at you, like furious, and you're his own sister. Becca would want to kill me, her own brother. I can't do that to them, or to you," Jerome sighed.

"But... We have to. Think about it. What happens if we date for years and years without them knowing? What if we end up, like, getting engaged? How will they react then? Just imagine it. They'd be pissed, angrier than if they were to know now."

"I guess you're right... But... I kinda like it like this... It's like it's our little secret..."

"Yeah... Alright, I guess we could hold off on telling them for a while..."

"Our little secret?"

"Our little secret."

*Mitch's POV*

"You know... We could run away..." I said.

We were sitting on the couch at Becca's house, her on my lap. The tv wasn't on and we were just sitting in silence.

"Really?" She asked.

"Yeah... That would make it easier on us. We'd never have to tell Sam or Jerome."

"I guess you're right... We could..."

"Just tell me when and where."

"Mitchell. You just quoted a 5 Seconds of Summer song."

"Oh god. But if we're gonna run away, I need to know something."

"Alright, shoot."

"What are we?"

"Well... I don't really know."

"What would you call this... Relationship of ours?"

"I don't know, I don't really care. I know I'm with you, just don't care to know what we are. All that matters is that I'm with you."

"But Bex, if I don't get to start calling you my girlfriend, someone else will. Every guy has their eyes on you, and I'm pretty sure you know it."

"What can I say, I'm good at what I do," She teased.

"I guess... Just... Can you promise me something?"

"What?"

"Don't stop."

"What?"

"Don't stop... Doing whatever it is that you're doing. Cuz whatever you're doing, it works, and I can tell that you know that."

"Aw! I promise."

Every day, it was the same. It was like a game, no matter what we did, she didn't say what we were. Back and forth, round and round...

But I kinda liked it that way.

(YES 5SOS REFERENCES FTW ((LYRICS FIT EVERYWHERE, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU KNOW TOO MANY.)).)

"So. When and where?" I asked again.

"Maybe a month? We could go to LA. Or... WAIT NO, LET'S GO TO AUSTRALIA."

"I'm being serious. Are you sure?"

"Well... If we don't tell them, or they don't find out in a month, then... Yeah."

"Australia?"

"Yup. One of my top 5 places to live."

"What are the others? Just out of curiosity."

"Well, it's Canada, Australia, Britan, LA, or Orlando."

"When did you make these up?"

"7th grade. I hated the entire point of staying in one place for your entire life. I wanted at least two places to live in at different points in my life, so I chose places from all around the world."

"You were a smart kid. Where'd all that go?" I teased.

"It went to gaming. I gamed back then, but I didn't have my own laptop or even an Xbox, so I wasn't quite as... Refined."

"Fair enough."

We stayed in that position in silence for at least another half hour. Then, my phone rang.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Hey, it's Sam. Where are you?"

"At Bex and Jerome's. I'll be back soon tho."

"Kay. Why are you there tho?"

"It's boring to watch movies by yourself."

"Ohhh. Anyways, I'll see you soon I guess. Bai," She hung up.

I sighed and told Becca that I had to leave. She frowned and hugged me, giving me a quick kiss goodbye.

"Bye babe, text me, hokeyp?" I said.

"Hokeyp, bye Mitchy."

I smiled and left their apartment without another word.

Just as I was leaving, I bumped into someone.

"Oh, sorry," I said, not even bothering to turn around.

*Becca's POV*

After Mitch left, I turned on the tv and just channel surfed for a few minutes.

Then, the door opened and Jerome walked in.

"I swear, we need new neighbours..."

"Huh? Why?" I asked.

"I bumped into one, he just mumbled and kept walking, the jag."

"Stop calling people jags, you're only allowed to call Mat a jag."

"Quarter past not happening, you jag."

"Did you just sass the Sass Master of Power Moves?"

(I should be the sass master... but since I'm not from Doncaster, I guess the Sass Master of Power Moves works.)

"Maybe I did."

"Ohhh, it's on, bro."
