Secret Love

A Monchele Love Story

Chapter Eight-Adventure Run Pt 1

-Cory-

"That's amazing!" Kevin exclaims.

"So romantic," Darren agrees.

Harry nods. "I think Lea'll love it!"

"Really?" I say happily.

I've just told them about my plan for me and Lea's anniversary. It's been five months since Lea and I told the Glee Cast about us dating and exactly twelve months since I first kissed Lea in the car park. Ever since we told Ryan and the cast of Glee, everything has pretty much gone back to normal; as if Lea and I never told them about it!

"Yeah, it's perfect, man," Mark says. Usually he's not very supportive of my relationships, but ever since he found out Lea is my girlfriend, he's been overly-loving, more caring and helpful than ever.

"Thanks, guys," I say, smiling. "Remember not to tell ANY of the girls."

"We won't, we say," Kevin says.

"Definitely," Mark adds.

-Mark-

As soon as Cory finishes telling us about his plans for his and Lea's anniversary, I zoned out and instantly stopped listening.

I walk up to Naya and Dianna who are chatting to Ryan.

"Hey girls, uhh...one of the camera men wanted to talk to you about this Prom seen coming up between you two," I say. It's probably one of the best lies I've ever told.

"Okay," they say and Ryan waves goodbye to them.

"Where is he?" Dianna asks.

"There is no 'he', I need to talk to both of you," I reply.

"What about?" Naya frowns.

"Cory just told the guys about what he's going to do for Lea on their anniversary tomorrow!" I say excitedly. "And I can't hold it anymore!"

"When did he tell you?" Dianna raises.

"Just then, like five minutes ago," I answer.

"And you can't hold it anymore?" Dianna's scoffs and rolls her eyes.

"Please!" I beg, putting my puppy dog eyes on. "Can't you guys keep a secret?"

-Lea-

I sit in the common room with Jenna, Amber, Darren and Chris as we chat and flip through magazines and Darren goes over his scenes with Chris for the final episode. Naya and Dianna suddenly bustle in from out of nowhere, with red faces and huge smiles.

I smile back. "Hi," I say, taking this to be either two situations; they've just had about three or four coffees with LOTS of sugar and caffeine, they're high, or they have just found out some very exciting gossip/news.

"We've just found out some very exciting gossip!" Dianna squeals happily.

One point for Lea!

"Ooh, what is it?" Chris asks.

"None of your business, Colfer," Naya says, her face becoming rapidly serious and then breaking into another ecstatic smile when she turns back to me.

Chris rolls his eyes.

"Well, if it's very exciting GOSSIP," I say, emphasising on the word 'gossip'. I pause. "...Then I don't want to know."

"What!?" they both yell, their faces falling as they frown and look down at me like I'm a little kid they're the bosses.

"Could you guys keep it down?" Darren asks, not taking his eyes off the script. "I have to get this scene perfected by this afternoon."

Jenna nods. "And I'm trying to listen to music."

Di and Naya both roll their eyes and start talking in a low tone.

"What do you mean you don't want to know?" says Di, her eyes pleading. "It's gossip! Everyone loves gossip."

"Well, I don't," I say as I widen my eyes.

"Why not?" Naya queries.

I sigh and put down my bottle of water. "Because obviously this person told you two about it because they could trust you to keep it a secret and if you tell me, you're breaking the promise you made to them."

"Mark won't care!" Dianna insists.

I groan. "What's the gossip about?"

"It's about what Cory is doing for your anniversary tomorrow!" they say in excited unison.

I roll my eyes. "And this wasn't supposed to be a surprise?"

They lie and shake their heads.

I get up, picking up my magazine and water bottle. "No thanks, gals. Tell it anyone else you want to, just not me...because maybe unlike you two, I like to have surprises in my relationship to keep it real and so that Cory and I can be true to each other."

"Whatever, Lea," Naya says. "But don't come crawling back to us, begging for mercy and pleading for us to tell you what it is."

I laugh to myself. "Don't expect THAT anytime soon."

I walk away, annoyed, and head to the one person who I know will always be able to comfort me.

-Cory-

"Hey babe," I get from the couch as Lea walks into my trailer. I pull her into a loving kiss, sucking on her sweet lips. "What are you doing here?"

Lea sighs. I sit back down on the couch and motion for her to sit on my lap. She smiles and kisses my cheek when she sits down. I wrap my arms around her waist and she wraps hers around my broad, running her fingertips through my hair.

"Well, I just came from the common room, where Dianna and Naya confronted me, begging for me to let them tell me what it was you were going to do for our anniversary," she says, looking into my eyes.

"How'd they find out?" I ask, my eyes widening.

"No idea," she says. "Probably Mark because they said if they told me, Mark wouldn't mind and I told them no way, I don't want to know. I love having surprises in our relationship."

I smile and lean up to kiss her gently on the mouth and she kisses me back.

"Wait...so Mark told them?" I ask as I repeat Lea's words in my mind. "I SPECIFICALLY asked him not to, oh my god!"

"Baby, don't get mad, please," Lea says, placing a hand carefully on my chest. "It doesn't matter now, anyway because I didn't find out and I can't wait to see it!
