Secrets Hurt But Truths Kill

Chapter five ~ Caught

The following week was strange. For everyone. Fallon and Blake were still not talking. Steven and Sam had been away on some couples retreat (apparently Sam's idiocy wasn't helping the relationship), and Crystal and Alexis weren't fighting for once. They were probably trying to put Blake's theory, of them going at it, to rest.

The only thing that seemed remotely normal, well for Kirby and Fallon anyway (it took everyone else some getting used to) was the idea of them. Spending time with each other, not in secret for once. They were both glad to be out in public without being careful of what others might think. Especially Fallon.

And It had also been really hot the last week, it was the middle of summer after all, and so the short skirts and tank tops were out, much to Fallon and Kirby's delight. Every day lead to the uncovering of more bare skin.

"You look good today babe," Kirby complimented Fallon as she adjusted her hair in the mirror. Fallon was wearing a deep red lace dress, tight she might add, highlighting every curve of her body. It hard not to notice now short it was too.

" I look good every day," Fallon smiled sweetly and proceeded to untangle a knot caught in her hair clip. She let out a groan and threw her arms down to get a good look at what she was dealing with.

Kirby moved in front of her and looking at the hair situation said,"Here, lemme help with that." Fallon looked at her.

"Fine, you can't possibly do any more damage," Fallon replied with despair.

After a few minutes of tugging and pulling at her hair, Kirby had somehow managed to undo the mess that Fallon had gotten her hair into.

"Thank you" said Fallon, staring at the floor smiling, realizing the nonexistent amount of space between them.

"No problem," Kirby responded, a light tone, free of the Kirby renowned vitriol. "That's what girlfriends are for right?"

"Oh so we're girlfriends now? It's official?" Fallon giggled hopelessly. This is what being in love was doing to her. She giggles now.

Kirby gazed directly into her eyes like they were pools that she could fall into into if she looked for too long. She tucked a few strands of Fallon's hair behind ear and grazed her pale hand down her face,"If you wanna be?"she asked.

Fallon's heart was beating far out of her chest. She knew exactly what she wanted to happen in this moment, but would her mouth blurt some random unwanted garbage and ruin the moment?

"I- I would like that, very much," Fallon leant towards Kirby so slowly it was painful feeling the anticipation between them. But soon their lips brushed, and then collided forcefully, relief washing over them both as the tension faded.

It felt so natural, so... right. This was right. Them being together was inevitable from the start.

Fallon lifted her hand up to grab Kirby's neck whilst their lips intertwined endlessly. Kirby's hands slid upwards from Fallon's waist and she felt Fallon push her whole body up against her, passion taking over as her back hit the wall behind.

The door opened, almost silently, as if by a ghost. Fallon and Kirby didn't hear it open and continued their activities oblivious of the eyes watching them, although they did hear the door shut rather loudly and jumped, turning round to see who had caused the noise...

"Fallon?" It was Monica. And Jeff.
