I let out a sigh. "You won't tell me huh?" I said, getting a little frustrated by all the secrets. "Guess one more secret wouldn't hurt... right?"

"Wait no- it's not-" he tried to defend but my body reacted on its own. "No. It's fine just-" before I finished my sentence my body moved by itself and soon I was outside of the busy bar.

I let out another sigh. Trying to ignore the pain I felt deep down. The pain I wasn't sure why it was there anyway. I went over to some steps nearby and took a seat.

"Wait- no it's not-" but before I could even finish he cut me off, and then walked out of the bar.

What just happened?

I got in earlier today, like it was a normal day, I had everything planned. I had even taken the rings with me to make sure I wouldn't forget. I wanted to keep them for a special day, but I couldn't wait anymore.

I thought it would be fine to just work that morning. I had been having a lot of fun, and the money didn't hurt either. But I didn't expect to get up from getting more glasses and finding Adam standing in front of me.

I tried to explain but I couldn't, I was too confused and shocked. I just stood there as he went outside.

"What-" Charles said confused. "Wait what did I miss?" He asked looking over at me. "Just me being stupid-" I sighed, bringing my hand up to my face.

"You guys know each other?" He asked confused. "Well, yeah-". I said looking at Charles. "Wait why do you know him?" I asked.

"Oh, he's here with an old friend of mine and some of his other classmates. I just met him like 20 minutes ago." He explained.

I let out another sigh, leaning onto the bartop. This is bad. I had to find a way to get out there.

"This is something serious isn't it?" Charles said, I nodded. He looked around for a bit. "Want me to cover for you?" I looked up confused. "You know, so you can go outside?"

I got up surprised. "You would do that for me?" He smiled "yeah but you can't blame me if Kai finds out." He smirked as he got around behind the bar. "No, I know, thank you." He nodded and I quickly ran past him and also got outside.

I looked around for a bit. Until I spotted him on some steps nearby. As I got closer I noticed he looked pretty angry.

"Hey.." I said as I walked up. He looked at me briefly before looking away. I took a seat next to him. It was quiet for a bit until I spoke up.

"Look I- I should've told you-" I started. "Then why didn't you." He said. Still not looking at me. I tried to say something but was cut off. "What didn't you just tell me?" He said, a little louder.

"I- I don't know- I should have," I admitted. "You could've just told me you started a job, why did you keep that a secret." He asked sounding more upset than before. "It wouldn't have been suspicious or anything- I wouldn't have to worry about- he suddenly stopped and looked away again.

"Worry? What did you think I was doing?" I asked a bit more seriously. "I didn't think anything, but it doesn't help when there are people around you putting doubt in your head." He said holding back tears. "I thought you would trust me not to"

"I do trust you-!" He cut me off again. "I do, trust you, a lot." He said. "It just- it feels like you don't trust me-"

"What?" I said confused. "Of course I trust you-" I said. "Then why didn't you tell me?" He looked over at me. "Why did you get a job anyway?" He said quietly. "I- I can't tell you that- it's a surpr-"

He let out a laugh as she got up. "I get it, a secret." He said wiping away tears. "That's not what I was gonna say-"

"It's fine, I get it." He said calmly. He let out a sigh. "I won't ask again," he said. Still not looking at me. "What do you mean."

"Maybe we rushed into this whole thing after all. " He said more to himself than to me. I got up as well. "Wait what are you saying?" I asked. Getting a bit nervous.

"I just- I can't do this right now-" he said. I tried to turn him to look at me but he just pulled his shoulder back. "Wait just-"

"Please just- leave me alone." He said before walking away again. I didn't try to run after him.

What does this mean? One minute everything was great and now... I pulled out the box with the rings, and let out a long sigh.

I was so close...
