The plot thickens

“Nobody can know, understand Kurt?” Brandon whispered frantically to the blonde guy. The four of them, Ashley, Kurt, Brandon and Vicky, had found a spot that allowed them to have a conversation about what went on in the cave.

“Really? What if I feel you should embrace your new found affection for dear Victoria over here.” He nodded his head in Vicky’s direction and saw the faint flash of distaste dance across her face, guess Brandon wasn’t as good as he thought.

“Kurt we’re all in this together now, we have to work together on this.”

“Look, girls chime in if you have something to say but, who exactly are we hiding this from? Your girlfriend is right here, isn’t that who you usually hide these things from?”

“It’s not Ash I’m worried about.” Brandon said, but when he caught Ashley’s look he quickly amended his statement. “Simply because she saw what was happening first hand.”

“Then who is it?” Ashley asked.

“It’s Maddie.” He said sullenly.

“Oh right, I actually forgot about her.” Ashley said with a smile.

“Don’t let her hear you say that.” Brandon said.

“Ha ha!” Kurt gave off a fake laugh “Can someone tell me what the problem with his sister finding out is?”

“As you spend more time with her, you realize just how much of a crush she has on Brandon.” Vicky chimed in.

“Wow, well ok. Didn’t see that coming.” Kurt said running his hand through his hair. “I can see how that could be a problem, she’s difficult to get along with as it is without her being jealous on top of it.”

“So, our secret for now?” Brandon asked looking around at the others.

“Sure.” Kurt said as the girls nodded their assent.
