"Okay, baby, you'll be okay." Victor spoke the next morning, reporters outside of the house. Media has gotten wind of the mayors sons death, five suspects being names and spoke about all through the county. Allison wasn't sure how to get to her car without being swarmed, not to mention how on edge she had been knowing her secret might spill next.

"Let's say a little prayer." Brenna grabbed their hands, the three bowing their heads together. "Lord, please be with our daughter today and keep her safe. We appreciate all you have done for us and we know you will do what is best. Amen."

"Amen." Victor and Allison said, she braced herself as she grabbed the door. "Here we go."

Allison pulled the door open.

Allison pulled the door open. Staring back at her was Simon, her eyes widened. "What are you doing-"

"Being a politician, don't worry." Simon winked, pushing past her to walk into her house. Allison heart was racing, holding her breath and staying as far away from Simon as she could.

"Oh, the mayors boy." Brenna smiled, putting a pot on the stove. "Allison, I didn't know you were having anyone over."

"I wasn't. I don't know who he is." Allison blurted out, not so subtly.

"Just going around and handing out campaign buttons." Simon handed her the button. "My moms sure she'll get re-elected but just wants to make sure she has others votes."

"Oh, for sure." Brenna took the button. "I didn't know that there was a new election."

"Oh, yeah, just a few weeks." he hummed, looking around. "If I remember what she said, you voted for her last time?"

"I did. I think your mother has done great things for us." she smiled in return, Allison's was on the verge of a heart attack just by him being here, keeping her head down to look less suspicious. "If you want to wait, my husband will be home soon for a signature, if that's what you need."

"No, that's okay. Do you mind if I use the bathroom before I go?" he asked her.

Breena found it odd, considering he living just across the street. "Allison, why don't you show him where it is?"

Allison cleared her throat, walking down the hallway as Simon followed. She pushed the bathroom door open, having her body grasp as he pulled her in, her back pushed against the door to cup her face and lay a kiss to her lips. Allison hummed, pulling back some. "We can't do this here."

"She didn't suspect anything." he leaned in for a kiss again.

"I'm serious, never again." Allison spoke sternly with a shake of her head. "Your house only. You don't understand."

"I wouldn't have done it if I didn't know we could get away with it." Simon gave her an odd look at the attitude. "Don't be mad."

"I'm not mad, I just don't wanna do this here." she said back in annoyance, pulling the door open and leaving him.

"The whole internet thinks Nate did it. Wheelers talking to everyone close to us and the medias turning this into some true crime, must see TV crap." Bronwyn ranted on in the theater again, the five meeting up. "So, we have to make sure we're on the same page."

"Let me guess. That means your page?" Cooper gave a questionable look. "You are The Brains of the operation, after all."

"You know, I think it's kinda clever the way they described us." Allison spoke up with a minor scoff. "All beginning with B? For Bayview? If we all go to jail, at least we had a catchy name."

"Well, they think you look pretty guilty, considering you're The Black-out." Addy looked over at her. "How'd they even know you passed out when being questioned?"

"The About That post i'm guessing." Allison shrugged in response.

"I mean, i'm just the blonde one." Addy shrugged, pulling her most clueless face. "I need help."

"Okay, we don't talk to reporters. We give them something else to talk about." Bronwyn listed on with a nod of her head.

"Like, what?" Addy frowned her eyebrows.

"Like, a new suspect. I mean, we know the cops think we worked together, so they're not gonna listen to any other theories unless we have hard evidence for the media." the standing girl explained to the sat four. "Those vultures will turn the slightest hint of something into some national new story. So, if we met them on the right trail, maybe the cops will follow."

"Okay, but how are we suppose to do that?" Cooper questioned.

"Someone's posting on About That, claiming to be the killer. So, we start there." Bronwyn nodded her head. "I still think it's Janae. I mean, who else would know Simons passwords?"

"I think it's Allison." Nate spoke up.

"What?" she looked over. "Are you serious?"

"Hey, i'm all for you ending up being ghostface." he rose his hands in surrender. "But it is a little ironic all our secrets have been posted, yet it's been three days and nothing about you has dropped?"

"It's not me. Probably because my secret isn't interesting at all." Allison said back with a look of disbelief.

"Oh, so you do have a secret?" Cooper sat up more. "Explains the fifth post."

"N-" Allison explained.

"So, what'd you do over the summer that two people shouldn't find out?" Addy asked, remembering the post. "Since that's the only one left."

"It's non of your business!" Allison shot back quickly.

"You said it wasn't interesting." Bronwyn pointed out, Allison looked at her in disbelief. "So, why can't you tell us?"

"You really think I killed him?" Allison asked in disbelief. "And i'm behind the About That post? What happened to knowing I wouldn't do something like that?"

"I don't think it's you, i'd just be a little more confident if we at least knew your secret." Bronwyn said back quickly.

"I'm not a virgin!" Allison tossed her hands up. "Happy now?"

Bronwyn blinked in shock as Addy, Nate, and Cooper all started to laugh. Allison shook her head in disbelief, standing up and going toward the door. Nate cut in, trying to contain his laughter. "Aw, hey, no, Allison. We're just messing with you."

"It's just funny because that's not anything to worry about. No one's gonna judge you, more then half the school isn't a virgin." Cooper chuckled slightly as he looked back at her, Allison stood in the middle of the isle.

"Nothing to worry about? Are you fucking with me?" Allison looked in disbelief, her chest rose and fell tremendously. "Do you have any clue what would happen to me if that secrets got out? If everyone knew?"

"You wouldn't get called a prude anymore?" Addy asked.

"My parents wound take me to the gynecologist to make sure my hymen is still attached. And even though most people break there's way before they have sex, they don't believe that. So, they'd know for a fact that i've definitely had sex and then they'll send me away to the youth group!" Allison yelled, she was loosing her breath and her eyes started to water. "A girl from church went and when she came back she was never the same. So, I don't know what they did to make her jump a mile high anytime anyone touched her or there was any loud noise, but I really, really don't wanna figure out!"

Her face was red of anger and tears, fear and panic all over her face. The trio had stopped laughing by now, because non of them knew what it was like to have extremely religious parents that genuinely believed in physical punishment if a sin was committed. She whipped her eyes, feeling embarrassed and was trying to hide behind her sleeves.

Cooper frowned. "Allison, we're sorry."

"Look, if your secret hasn't dropped get, then it most likely won't." Nate tried to make her feel better. "Maybe Simon didn't write it before he died."

"And even if it does, there's no proof. If your parents want to believe the hymn myth then I can call my aunt. She's a doctor and she'd be happy to explain it to them." Addy said back to her. "No one's gonna send you away to some creepy church camp."

"We know it's not Allison, that's settled." Bronwyn said confidently as Allison sat back down, using the back of her cardigan to whip her eyes. "Back to Janae. You said they were fighting about the app."

"Yeah, they were fighting. But, not enough for her to kill him." Addy pointed out with a shake of her head.

"Yeah, I don't think it was just about the app." Nate spoke up as he looked her way. "She was mad at him about something else. Something personal?"

"Like, what?" Addy leaned forward. "Were they together? I mean, she was definitely into him, right?"

Allison rolled her eyes. "She's literally a lesbian."

"What? How do you know?" Addy asked with an odd look.

"Everyone knows." she said back, her voice was still scratchy.

"No, everyone assumes." Addy corrected her.

"We know the media loves a lover spat. So, if we lay low, so they don't have anything new to say about us, we give them something on Janae, maybe they'll run with it and they won't go through our trash." Bronwyn suggested with a nod of her head.

"I actually agree." Cooper pointed out. "I'm trying to be on ESPN, not TMZ."

"I could talk to her." Addy suggested as they all looked at her funny. "Not to brag, but i'm, like, really good at getting gossip out of people."

"That's good. But, you'd have to record it." Bronwyn gave her a knowing look. "We need something to leak to the press."

"I won't fuck if you." Addy said confidently. "I promise."

"Said every fuck up ever." Simon spoke, making Allison turn and see he'd decided to make his appearance next to her now.

"So, nothing about me was there at all?" Allison asked, meeting Nate and Bronwyn after school when she called and said Maeve had gotten into About That.

"Nothing. Not a draft, not anything. Your name is no where accept that car incident." Bronwyn said in return, making Allison sigh in relief. "But, there's something else."

Allison looked over at her. "Something else?"

Nate cleared his throat. "Simons password to About That."

"What about it?" she gave an odd look, crossing her arms.

"When Maeve got the laptop, she changed the password. But, the old one was already saved." Bronwyn stated, Allison stared, waiting for her to go on.

"It was Allison Gideon Ziya." Nate spoke up when he realized Bronwyn was lost of words.
