A/N: I have no idea what you'll make of this chapter. You'll probably be very shocked though. Anywayy... I'm not saying anything else... enjoy : )
I woke up the next morning to Danny making pancakes downstairs. I crept down and smiled, watching him cook.
"Morning" He grinned when he noticed me watching.
"Morning." I smiled.
"I made pancakes!" He smiled, giving me a plate.
I laughed. "They smell nice!"
We quickly devoured the pancakes and then I remembered what day it was- Dougie's birthday.
"It's Doug's birthday, isn't it?" I asked.
"Yeah... that reminds me, I need to buy him something..." He said, putting our plates in the sink.
"Same. I have no idea what to get him though..."
"Yeah...let's go shopping in a minute and have a look around."
"Okay." Danny agreed before I went off and got dressed.
My phone beeped saying that I got a text.
Jay: Hey, I'll meet you at the place where Doug's having his party tonight then?
Me: Yeah, I'm just about to go out shopping with Danny to buy him something.
I sent him the text and then quickly another one followed.
Jay: Ah, I got him this pink 'My Little Pony' he said he wanted a while ago, it only came out a few days ago so I doubt he has it.
I laughed, that seemed like the perfect present for Dougie... even though he was turning 25.
Me: Awesome! I don't think he has it either or he would have gone on about it to everyone! :D I'll get him something similar then... just something weird, cos he's a weird kid!
Jay: Haha okay... see you later then!
Me: Byeeeeeee
I smiled reading our conversation back. Even though he had some secret that he wasn't telling me about... I didn't want to wreck my friendship with him and I was going to find out this secret...tonight.
I quickly got dressed and left with Danny, walking to the shops.
"Jay said he's got him a 'My Little Pony' because apparently Dougie told Jay he wanted that one." I told Danny as we were looking around various toy shops.
"Ahh right. I guess we couldn't really get similar things and he probably has all of the other 'My Little Pony' toys." Danny sighed.
I choose a 'Dora the Explorer' backpack that sang songs when you pressed a button; I knew Dougie would like that. Whilst Danny choose a purple, sparkly cowgirl hat, like his pink one.
I got Danny to wrap up the gifts when we got home – as I was so terrible at wrapping presents. I quickly looked at the invitation for the party and noticed he was having it at some club in London... at least it wasn't the one we went to last time.
"Hey, have you ever been to this club?" I asked Danny, showing him the invitation.
"Err... maybe. I don't recognise the name but it's probably quite easy to get there." He replied.
"Okay, you're driving then!" I laughed.
He laughed. "So Jay's coming then? I didn't even know he knew Dougie that well."
"Yeah... well they talked when we went to that club... so I guess Dougie just thought he should invite him, I dunno." I muttered.
"Ah okay, what time does it start by the way?" Danny asked, glancing at the clock which read that it was 1pm.
"Half 8." I answered.
"Alright...Okay I'm done!" He said, holding up the wrapped presents, proudly.
"Thanks, hun! Yours looks a bit weird wrapped up." I laughed.
"Yeah... he'll probably be thinking 'what the hell is that'" He grinned.
Many hours later and it was 8 o'clock. We decided to leave to go to Doug's party, seeing as we didn't want to be late as we didn't know where it was.
Getting in the car, we found ourselves at the already packed venue about 40 minutes later.
It was a very big place and we could hear booming music coming out of the building. There were people all dressed up fancy, but most of the people there I didn't know at all. It was quite weird as Dougie barely had any friends apart from; Harry, Danny, (Kind of Jay) and me.
Dan and I got our gifts for Dougie and awkwardly walked past the unknown people into the venue.
"Are you sure this is the right place?" I shouted at Danny, trying to hear myself over the music as we were getting several glances from strangers.
"Positive" Danny shouted back, just as loud.
I suddenly saw Dougie walking over to us, a huge grin on his face. He was dressed as Dora the Explorer and was also wearing his pink cowgirl hat.
"Hey guys, you came!" He smiled, giving us both hugs.
"Happy birthday, Doug!" We both said simultaneously, handing him our neatly wrapped presents.
"Aww thanks!" He grinned. "You even used Dora wrapping paper! Aww I love you guys!"
I laughed. "That's alright!"
"So... I have to go around and say hi to more people, why don't you two go and get a drink?" He said, turning around and walking off.
So Danny and I walked over to the bar and I saw Joel sitting there.
"Hey, Joel!" I exclaimed.
"Tom! Hey, funny to bump into you! Well I guess not that funny as you are Dougie's best friend..." He rambled on as I ordered Danny and I drinks.
"Oh hey, Danny." He smiled.
"Hello" Danny answered politely.
I quickly scanned the big, main room for two people – Harry and Jay. As much as I love Doug, the main reason why I came today was because I knew that both Jay and Harry would be here and they're the only people I really needed to speak to.
"You alright Tom?" Danny asked, putting an arm around me.
"What? Yeah, I'm fine." I said quickly, looking around once more.
"Who are you looking for? Jay?" He asked.
"Um... yeah. Do you mind if I go and look for him? It's kind of important..."
"No it's fine... Tom are you okay? You look so pale..."
"I'm fine... just too hot."
"But Tom, that makes no sens-"
"I'll see you later!" I quickly said, grabbing my drink and walking off to find Jay.
Joel smiled at Danny. "Is he always like this?" He laughed.
"Not really. But he has before..." Danny answered, smiling at Joel.
I had searched around for Jay for at least an hour when I finally went outside onto a little patio where there was a pool and a hot tub. I suddenly saw Jay leaning against a wall, talking on the phone. I decided to be a bit nosy and listen to his conversation. I quickly tried to get closer to him but it was rather awkward as he was leaning against a wall.
"Look, I'm not doing this anymore! You're soon going to have to tell him! Just piss off." I heard him say, annoyed. He sighed and quickly put his phone away.
Who was he talking to? Was it Harry? I quickly backed away and around the corner ready to go round and pretend I'd only just seen him.
I took a deep breath before casually walking round the corner, taking a sip of my drink.
"Jay! Hey, I'm been looking for you!" I smiled.
"Hi Tom" He sighed quietly.
"Everything alright?" I asked innocently.
I guess that wasn't the right thing to say.
"Everything alright? I think especially you, Tom, would understand that not everything's alright!"
"Woah...Jay! Man, calm down!" I said, patting him on the back.
He moved away from me. "Tom just go away. We both know the only reason why you're here and I told you I'm not saying anything!"
I sighed. "Fine...I guess you're right. I'll have to find Harry then... have you seen him?"
"He's just arrived." He muttered.
"Thanks." I said, running back inside and suddenly bumping into Danny.
"Tom! Hey, I was looking for you. What's the hurry? Tom?" Danny called as I quickly ran past him. He quickly caught up with me and grabbed my hand pulling me towards him.
"Tom where the hell are you going?" He said, looking quite annoyed.
"Dan...I'm sorry but I need to find Harry."
He sighed. "Why?"
"There's something up with Jay and Harry and I need to get this sorted once and for all!" I said, quickly running back outside, Danny hurrying after me.
"Tom, please! Just leave it! It's probably none of your business!" Danny cried.
I quickly got outside by the entrance and saw Harry talking to Dougie in a corner by the road.
"Harry!" I called, running over.
He looked very surprised to see Danny and I both running over, looking angry.
"What the hell is going on with Jay?" I asked suddenly, when we got to him.
"Jay? I don't even know him." He muttered, a confused look on his face.
"But you do...When Jay was missing... he was doing something for you... I don't know what but he said that you're the only person that can give me answers! I'm tired of all this arguing lately... is there something that everyone knows that I don't?" I shouted.
Harry suddenly looked at Danny. I looked at them both, trying to read their faces.
"Go on then Danny. Tell your boyfriend everything." Harry said.
"What? Tell me what?" I shouted, annoyed.
"Please... don't do this" Danny whispered, looking at Harry, pleading him.
"You're the one that never wanted to tell him... you kept it a secret!" Harry shouted.
"It wasn't my secret to tell!" Danny shouted back.
I was getting very scared and annoyed now. "Can someone just tell me what this fucking secret is!" I yelled.
We were getting stares from guests now, who looked quite scared. Dougie, who stood behind me, looked so frightened. I felt so bad... it was his birthday... but we just had to settle it now.
"Tell him." Harry kept muttering to Danny. "What do you know?"
"He-he-he" Danny wept, pointing at Harry.
"Dan." I whispered, putting my arms around him. "I won't hate you...you can tell me in private if you want?" I said, comforting him.
"He doesn't have amnesia." Danny whispered. "He never did...and I knew all along."
"Ohmygod!" I shouted.
Danny suddenly burst into tears. "Tom... please don't be angry with me... I wanted to tell you... I really did. But I didn't because I-I love you."
"What?" I gasped. Even though we had said we loved each other before, it always seemed silly and not real.
"I love you too." I whispered, embracing him and pulling him into a tender kiss. We stood there for a few minutes, kissing, before realizing we had an audience and there were still questions to be answered.
I turned to Harry and suddenly – without thinking, punched him in the face. He fell backwards onto the ground, clutching his bleeding nose.
Danny and Dougie both gasped. Dougie quickly jumped back.
"Did you know Doug, about this?" I asked the scared boy.
He quickly nodded his head and looked at the floor, silent.
I couldn't believe it. Harry lied about having amnesia? Why would he do that? Was has this got to do with Jay... and Danny?
"Dan... You said you didn't tell me because you-er loved me. Why would that matter if you told me right from the beginning?" I asked, turning to my lover.
I didn't get an answer straight away because Harry suddenly got up, still holding his nose. I felt scared at what he was going to do to me.
"You wanna know why Tom? Why he just said that? Because Danny knows two secrets... not just one."
So it wasn't all over... there was more than one secret? Oh god... can it be any worse than the last one?
"I love Danny." Harry suddenly whispered.
A/N: Woowww! I bet you weren't expecting that? I've had them two secrets written down right from the beginning and I couldn't wait for you to read this! My next chapter will definitely be my last one. Please R&R!
