The screat

Alex and Ryan had been working together for a few weeks now and their feelings for each other had only grown stronger. They had been careful to keep their relationship a secret, knowing that the media would have a field day if they found out about them. They spent every moment they could together, but their time was limited. They had to be careful not to be seen together in public and to keep up the appearance that they were just working together.

One day, Alex was at home practicing when there was a knock on the door. He opened it to find Ryan standing there, looking worried.

"What's wrong?" Alex asked, concerned.

"I just received a call from my manager," Ryan said. "They've received word that the media is starting to suspect that something is going on between us. They're starting to put the pieces together."

Alex's heart sank. He had always known that their relationship was risky, but he had never expected it to get this far. He knew that if the media found out, it would be a disaster.

"What are we going to do?" Alex asked, his voice shaking.

"We need to be even more careful," Ryan said. "We can't be seen together in public and we need to be more careful with our phones and social media. We can't take any chances."

Alex nodded, feeling overwhelmed. He had never been one for the spotlight, but now it seemed like the whole world was watching him.

The next few days were a blur of rehearsals, performances, and secret meetings. Alex and Ryan were careful to keep their distance in public, but they couldn't resist the occasional stolen kiss when they were alone. They were both on edge, waiting for the other shoe to drop.

It finally happened at Ryan's next performance. Alex was in the audience, trying to keep a low profile when he noticed a group of reporters making their way towards him. He quickly slipped out of the venue and made his way back to his hotel room, where Ryan was waiting for him.

"They found out," Alex said, his voice shaking. "The reporters are onto us. We need to make a statement, Ryan. We need to come out and tell the truth."

Ryan hesitated for a moment, looking torn. He had always known that his image was important, but he also knew that he couldn't keep hiding his feelings for Alex.

"Okay," Ryan said finally. "We'll make a statement tomorrow. Together."

The next day, Ryan and Alex stood together in front of a crowd of reporters and cameras. Alex's heart was pounding in his chest, but he was determined to stand by Ryan's side.

"We have something to tell you all," Ryan said, his voice steady. "Alex and I are in a relationship. We know that this may come as a surprise, but we wanted to be honest with our fans and with ourselves. We're in love, and we're not going to hide it any longer."

The reporters erupted in a frenzy of questions, but Alex and Ryan held hands, smiling at each other. They had finally come out, and they were ready to face the world together.
