"That's something you'll have to ask him. I don't know why he slept with her exactly but I know that he loves you for who you are Royalty. You're kind, honest and fun. Everyone loves you Royalty." I went quiet. "Nico, I lied to him about Jasper." I turned around and looked at him "What?" "I told him I didn't have a boyfriend when I had Jasper." "Why'd you lie about something like that?" "Because I didn't want him to leave me." Damanico went quiet and I soon knew why. "The both of you have been lying to each other the whole time. Don't you trust him?
