Simon and I decided we would start meeting in my room at night, it's the only place not under surveillance. I had to fight very hard when I first arrived to make sure of it.

The only obstacle was getting Simon to my room without anybody seeing, considering all the halls had camera it was going to be difficult. What was even harder is we could really meet to discuss how we were going to get him to my room, we had to basically leave it up to chance.

It was 8:47pm, Simon was to arrive at 9:00pm.

***

At 9:09pm he cane sneaking through the door, he looked terrified so I knew better then to ask how he did it undetected.

"You made it." I say smiling.

"Did you ever doubt me?" He responds

"No. Absolutely not." I say in return.

Simon came over and sat on the bed next to me.

"So." I say

"So." He repeats.

"You said you don't agree with your father and Gideon's plan, do you wanna elaborate?" I ask.

"At first it seemed like a good idea. I thought I was saving the world, I know what sounds like a clique but it's true. Then they started talking about a girl, you, and how she was going to be my partner. I was excited. Then three years ago I heard them talking about how you'd followed their plan exactly, without knowing it. I knew they were lying to you, then I found out they were lying to me. We were just pawns, unknown cheese pieces in their game. So I figured, plan along. Understand the game and it's rules so I could beat it instead of just blindly playing."

I sit there, I have no idea what to say.

"If you knew for three years, why did you wait to come?" I ask.

"Because I needed to understand the game before I got you involved, and I knew if I came before then I would see you, like I did, and I would" he pauses "I would fall in love."

Fall in love? He loves me, we barely know each other but he loves me. Something inside me suddenly triggers, I can't speak. So I kiss him.

When I release I look at him and realize what I've done

"I'm sorry." I splutter.

He kissed me back

"Im not" he says.
