Ace wins his race of course and afterwards we head over to JamesTown, like always. I sit at the table next to Ace but there couldn’t be more distance between us if we tried. I study Ace from the corner of my eye. Finally, I give up. “I’m calling it a night. See you guys later. Nice to meet you, Jagger.”

Jagger smiles and it reminds me so much of Ace that it hurts. “Really, it was my pleasure. I hope I see you around.”

I glance down at Ace who still hasn’t moved. “Yeah, me too.” I give the table the best smile I can muster. I’m halfway to my Jeep when I hear Ace.

“Were you ever going to tell me about the video Kyn?”

I stop, bracing myself for what is about to come and turn around to face him. “I meant to tell you this morning.”

“You meant to tell me? Really Kynlee? How do you mean to tell someone something and then just lie?” I can sense his hurt and frustration, but I can’t find the words so I just shrug. Ace throws his hands up in frustration. “That’s great! No answer, do you even know why you lied about it?”

“I don’t know Ace,” I say meekly. I’m so ashamed right now.

He lets out a frustrated growl. “What am I supposed to do with this Kynlee? We’ve built our whole relationship on this ‘we don’t lie’ thing and now it’s just down the drain.”

My anger flashes to the surface and I level Ace with a glare. “Relationship? What relationship Ace? According to your introduction I’m just a friend.”

“You know what? I’m sorry about that, I really am. We’ve never had to introduce each other to anyone. Everyone in our lives have watched this develop so no introduction has been needed. I froze because I was mad and hurt and I wanted to hurt you back,” Ace says, staring at me intently. I can see that he’s sincere about his apology and he’s still being brutally honest. What he’s saying does make sense. We never have had to label our relationship or lack thereof. His family and our friends have just watched this grow into what it is. “I’m also sorry that you felt the need to lie to me.”

I shake my head and feel the tears welling up behind my eyes. I want to be strong, I don’t want to cry but I don’t know if I’ll be able to hold them back. “I didn’t feel the need. I don’t even know why I did it.”

“Did you think I’d be mad at you? Because I wouldn’t have been, I know when you go on those things that you don’t know who’s going to be there. I would have understood.”

I feel so defeated because he’s right. I know he’s right. In my heart I know that even though Ace doesn’t love my choice of career that he tries his best to understand it. I know had I told him about the
