"Sam and I are thinking of telling everyone," Micky told me. She took a sip of her coco-cola. We were sitting on a park bench. Micky's dog, Beau, was sitting on the ground next to us. He was a slobbering, old boxer.

"Oh," I said, "Yeah, I'm feeling the pressure to tell everyone too. Damian and I decided we'd tell after Regional's."

"Mr. Schue told me we're doing duets again. He said it really pumped us all up for sectionals," Micky told me, changing the subject. I nodded, smiling. "I hope we get to do some classic rock."

"At Regional's?" I asked.

"Yeah," she said, "I think you'll get the solo. You've kind of taken over Lindsay as head of Glee Club." I snorted. "You have!" she exclaimed, "You're more talented, anyways."

"Lindsay's amazing!" I defended her.

"You're just being overly nice to her because you are going behind her back with they guy she's in love with," Micky told me, not making any attempt at beating around the bush.

"Don't say it like that," I said, frowning slightly, "That makes me sound horrible."

"I'm sorry," Micky said, smiling at me teasingly. We sat there for a while talking.

My phone beeped and Micky's rang. We looked at each other curiously, and then turned to our phones. "One New Message," flashed on my screen.

"Lindsay says we're having an emergency meeting at her house," Micky said.

"I got the same message," I told her, putting my phone in my purse.

"C'mon," Micky said, "it's best not to keep her waiting. Heel, Beau," she said to her dog, patting her leg. We climbed into her car.

We drove up to Lindsay's house just as Hannah did. "Cute dog," she said, petting him, "What's his name?"

"Beau," Micky said, smiling.

Hannah, Beau, Micky and I walked into Lindsay's house together. In her basement, Samuel, Lindsay, Mr. Schue, and Cameron were already assembled. Samuel made eye contact with Micky but broke it when he realized he'd been smiling too long.

Lindsay gasped when she saw Beau. "Oh," she said, grimacing, "Cute dog."

In time, everyone showed up. "Mr. Schue," Alex asked, "What's this meeting all about?" Everyone nodded.

"We origionally decided on Emily's rendition of Cherry Bomb and Alex's Hot Honey Rag but I'm afraid we can't do either of those." Alex and Emily both looked close to tears. "One of the requirements of the competition is we have to use songs from the last three years." Some, like me, groaned, other clapped. "Any suggestions?"

"I've got one!" Damian said. Mr. Schue nodded. Damian gave the band the name of the song and they started. Everyone smiled in recognition of the song.

"I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life
And I thought hey
You know this could be something
'Cause everything you do and words you say
You know that it all takes my breath away
And now I'm left with nothing"

I frowned at him when he started singing directly at me. Micky had noticed to and was looking on in horror.

"So maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two, is better than one."

Lindsay caught on to it too and had let her mouth open slightly in shock.

"I remember every look upon your face,
The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste
You make it hard for breathing
'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away
I think of you and everything's okay"

He smiled at me and continued singing.

"And finally now, we're leaving

And maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two, is better than one

Yeah, yeah"

He closed his eyes, lost in song. I looked at Micky, silently asking for help. She looked at me, her eyes wide and shaking her head. Samuel shrugged, not knowing what to do.

"I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life
And I thought hey,"

He opened his eyes and looked at me square on. Everyone's jaws dropped when he grabbed my hand and pulled me onto the floor next to him. I looked at him with my eyes wide.

"Maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking."

He twirled me around and sang to me.

"Oooh I can't live without you
'Cause baby two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And I've figured out with all that's said and done
Two, is better than one

Two is better than one."

My mouth gaped a little when he finished. Everyone clapped awkwardly after a moment of silence except for Cameron and Lindsay who looked on in shock and Samuel and Micky who both looked at Damian in horror. Everyone else just looked confused.

"I couldn't live with lying to everyone," Damian told me quietly. I looked at him in shock. After a minute I nodded, storing up my anger for later when we were alone and I could yell at him without anyone interrupting me. Damian turned to the group. "For the past month or so, Marissa and I have been dating in secret." Everyone gasped except Micky and Samuel. Micky rubbed her temple and Samuel just shook his head sadly.

Lindsay's eyes filled with tears. She stood up and with a flash of dark hair and a ship of her skirt ran up the stairs and to her room. Hannah volunteered to go up to her.

"I, uh, have to go," I said, not wanting to deal with the questions, "Mick, can you drive me?" Micky nodded and drove me home.

Micky stopped in front of my house and we got out. I unlocked my front door and went up into my room. I sat on my bed, crossing my arms angrily. Micky sat down next to me, frowning with concern.

"What a…ugh!" I exclaimed, "We decided that after Regional's we'd tell everyone, not before!"

"I know, sweetie," she said, brushing my hair with her fingertips.

"It was just so inconsiderate!" Micky was silent for a minute. "Right, Mick?"

"Well," Micky said, "Think of what it was doing to him… Damian is one of the most honest people I know. He can't lie, and when he does he's a terrible at it. Samuel and I could see it was breaking him."

"So I'm the inconsiderate one?" I asked angrily.

I scowled at her, waiting impatiently for a reply. "No," Micky said, "but just think about it…" She got up, put Beau's leash on and started leaving. She turned around. "Don't let this ruin you and Damian. You two are good together," she said, smiling warmly.

I smirked. "You've been hanging around Sam too long," I said, smiling. Micky winked and left. I smiled after her.
