Later that afternoon the time came for Ellen and Darren was officially freaking out!

"What if I do something wrong Chris?" he yelled as they made their way out of the car. "I'm no good at this stuff! You know that"

Darren, I'll be right at the side of the stage if you need me" Chris said as he gripped the older man's hand tighter. "I'm always here if you need me, just look at me and I'll be there"

"Have I ever told you that I love you Christopher?"

"Yes Darren you have. Many, many times"

"Won't stop me from saying it again though"

Chris giggled slightly, "you really are something else Mr Criss"

"Why thank you Mr Colfer" He replied before giving his boyfriend a firm kiss.

The first part of Darren's interview went easily enough. What was coming up on glee as it neared the season finale, talk of starkid and his time on Broadway. It was after they came back from the ad break that the tough questions came.

"So, there have been a lot of pictures and rumours flying around of you and co-star Chris Colfer but there have been no comments from either of you. Care to change that now? I know how much people like to stir things up"

Now was the time. He looked to the side of the stage and saw Chris standing there. Peeking round the corner watching him intently.

"Actually no Ellen, we let the rumours circulate, allowed pictures to be taken. I guess we thought it would make it easier on me if people were already speculating but truthfully I'm still terrified.

Ellen looked confused. "Are you saying what I think you are?"

"Most likely, you are very smart" Darren smirked.

Backstage Chris breathed a sigh of relief; if Darren was making jokes then he was back to himself.

"I was living a lie" Darren stated "I couldn't do it anymore. Not to mention the strain it was putting on my friends and cast mates."

"You mean they all knew and managed to keep it a secret?"

"Yeah, somehow I have managed to keep the most wonderful secret for like 18 months. But hide and lie no longer. Chris is wonderful and I am the luckiest man to have him, even if I did make him hide us for so long.

"I know how hard that must have been for you and I don't want you to feel pushed but if you are with Chris, why were you always adamant you were straight playing gay?"

"Well honestly cause I was, I had never considered myself gay or even bi until I met Chris. I guess I'm, how do the fans put it, oh yeah ColferSexual" Darren and Ellen started laughing and from that moment the rest if the interview went without a hitch.

Ellen let Darren go by saying "I'll let you get back to your man now; he's been standing patiently backstage this whole time, most likely crapping himself in case something went wrong."

"Why thank you Ellen, I do believe that is true, although I was crapping it too" All three laughed as Darren skipped off stage and into Chris's arms.

"There now, that wasn't so hard was it?" Chris whispered in Darren's ear as they made their way out. As a response Darren kissed him passionately, not caring at all who saw. There were no lies now, well not about his sexuality anyway
