7. Someone close to them tells without thinking :( 2010)
"Dianna, over here. Can you spare a few minutes for a quick interview?" Dianna Argon turned from where she was walking up the red carpet at the Glee 3D movie premiere in California.
"Can you share anything about Glee?"
"No, I'm sorry I can't. I don't even know what's going on or season 3 but you shall all see come August..." Dianna answered politely.
"We understand that. Now tell us about your co-stars. We want to hear your honest opinion about them." the reporter asked.
"My co-stars are some of the silliest, funniest, and most talented people I have ever met. That being said, they are some of my closest friends." Dianna answered again.
"Oh, Tell us more than that." the reporter asked persistently.
"What do you want to know?" Dianna asked.
"Tell us what you think about Darren Criss joining the Glee cast." she asked.
"I think it's great. Darren is a wonderful actor and Chris deserves to be with someone as wonderful like Darren is." Dianna answered as she spotted her boyfriend, Alex who was now walking up to her.
"Chris?" the reporter asked getting confused.
"Yes Chris. They've been dating for a while." Dianna distractedly answering the question without bothering to fully digest what she had just revealed.
"What, wait? Do you mean to say that Darren Criss and Chris Colfer are dating!" the reporter asked clearly getting excited about such a ground-breaking secret.
"Dianna." Chris Colfer came up to one of his best friends after he finished his own interview.
"Dianna, we need to be going inside. It will be starting soon." Chris told her as he wrapped his arm around her.
"Chris Colfer," the reporter said.
"Yes, I'm sorry but we really don't have time for another interview. I'd love to later though." Chris said.
"I just have a question for you. Are you and your costar Darren dating?" she asked.
"Darren and I are close friends, that's it but Kurt and Blaine did just begin dating if that's what you mean." Chris answered politely.
"But, Dianna just told us that you two were dating? Is it true or was she lying? Hollywood stars are prone to being divas, you know." The reporter again asked him wanting a truthful answer this time. She sensed a story and she desperately needed it if she ever hoped to go anywhere in her career.
"I'm sorry Chris. I didn't mean to, I got distracted by Alex." Dianna anxiously told her co-star/close friend.
"Dianna, it's okay." Chris told her ignoring the reporter as he soothingly tried to calm a perplexed and worried Dianna.
"No, it's not. I told and I wasn't supposed to. I hope I didn't ruin anything." Dianna said clearly upset with herself.
"Chris, Dianna. It's time to go inside." Darren came up behind to tell them not sensing his awful timing.
"Darren Criss, you are just the man I need to talk to." She told Darren which earned her a grin and a 'thanks'.
"So tell us, Are you and Chris dating?" the reporter asked him, this time hoping to get somewhere.
"What!" Darren answered trying to look shocked but failing. Darren wasn't very good at hiding the truth; he was generally an honest person.
"Dianna said you were and Chris didn't answer. Can we hope to get an answer from you this time?" the still smiling yet anxious reporter asked.
"Go ahead Dare, it's time." Chris leaned up to whisper to Darren.
"Yes we are. We've been dating for 8 months now. Right?" Darren turned to Chris to make sure of the time. He would hate to tell someone wrong especially when it will be all over TV and the Internet soon.
"Actually, it's a year if you count the time that we weren't official." Chris answered while still smiling at Darren. Standing beside him, the now relieved and happy Dianna Argon was standing with her boyfriend watching the couple she had so desperately wanted to click together on set and off.
