The New Boys In Town (Book Two)

The Truth Is Revealed

"So, what is the reason why you and Lily Moore broke off your engagement?" The reporter said.

Peggy and I stared at the TV, Oh my god. He's going to say it! 

Freddie took a deep breath as he played with his hands, "Well, don't get me wrong. I love Lily so much, I mean no one will be able to replace her.. She's the lily of my valley" He blushed and smirked as the audience awed.

I giggled, feeling my face heat up.

"If you love her so much, why did you call it off? I mean, it was you, right?" The reporter questioned.

Freddie looked sad, "Yes, I called it off. She deserves better b-"

"Why is that?" The reporter interrupted.

I groaned, Let him finish, lady! 

"Because I'm gay" Freddie said.

Peggy gasped beside me, "That's why!? Oh my god.." She covered her mouth.

I laughed, Peggy pointed at my hand. "You still have the ring on though!" She squealed.

I giggled, "Yes, he told me to keep it.." I softly said, playing with the ring.

Peggy leaned closer, "Are you sure he's gay?" She questioned.

I chuckled, "Yes.. He cheated on me with a man."

Peggy gasped, "You seem so fine with it?!" She said in disbelief.

I shrugged, "I understand him, Peggy. He's an honest man." I gently said.

Peggy smirked, "I'm glad you're not heartbroken" She whispered.

I smiled, "I am too"

"So, what happens now?" Peggy asked.

I shrugged, "I'll still be close to the boys. I'll still make music, I don't know..."

"I heard the boys are moving away soon" Peggy said.

I snapped my head, staring at her, "What?" I said.

Peggy nodded, "Mhm, they are moving away soon. I don't know why and I don't know whe-"

"Who did you hear that from?" I firmly said.

"Well, I assumed with their new album coming out.." She shrugged.

"My heart aches.." I mumbled, rubbing my chest.

"Aw, darling. I'm sorry, talk to them about it. Don't listen to me" Peggy gently said, hugging me.

I chuckled, "And yet I still listen.." Peggy laughed.
