Today's news on Goode high school: Golden boy Will Solace, surrounded by girls, but rejecting all. An anonymous insider shared an interesting story. They were standing in the group surrounding when they heard something go down. Apparently, Queen Bee Drew flirtatiously asked our Golden boy out. But, as our source kindly included, Drew did not get the answer she wanted. Will kindly, but defiantly, declined. Drew was later seen stalking of. I'll keep you updated on this... Of course from the shadows. XOXO Gossip Boy

"Will, look! Gossip Boy uploaded. And it's about you. I swear to god, this 'Gossip Boy' is obsessed with you." My best friends, Cecil and Lou Ellen, turn to me with suspicious grins on their faces. Lou hands me her phone, she only does that in life or death situations, and I start scrolling through the post. So 'Gossip Boy' spotted what went down with Drew. And every other girl I had turned down in the past three years of high school.

Hey Goode high schoolers, I'll be answering you're most burning questions, if you can find the private chat. Here's a little riddle:

"If you break me, I do not stop working. If you touch me I may be snared. If you lose me, nothing will mater. What am I?"

Hear from you soon, XOXO Gossip Boy

I returned Lou's phone and got out my own. I knew the riddle. I'd read it before. The answer is simple, you've got the hints. When I looked around I saw everyone talking excitedly. They had got the riddle too. The 'Gossip Boy' app was easy to find. It was the only sparkly app on my phone, called XOXO. On the home screen I saw the same message as on Lou's. I wasn't looking for that. The logo in the top right corner was my goal. The pink XOXO and purple Gossip Boy, with the O in boy replaced by a heart emoji. I clicked the heart and on my phone a window opened, looking like a text conversation but with a different colour scheme.

(Italics-Gossip Boy underlined-Will)

'Hey Gossip Boy, your riddle solver is here'

'Someone is smart enough to talk to me. And who are you riddle-solver.'

'Well if you speak in riddles only then why not me too. You keep in the shadows, I in the sun. You find my life a lot of fun. When silver meets gold, secrets start to unfold. Who am I?'

'You are certainly not the one to spill easily. And you think I'm silver, that's... interesting. So you're popular, while I keep away from that life. I know a lot about you. And when we would meet you will know who I am. Is that right Golden boy. Or as I can call you Will. Now ask me your burning questions.'

I was surprised. That riddle was kind of farfetched and yet they had managed to solve it. I already liked this person. Being Pan, I easily read into personalities, but also fell for them quick.

'Hint me on your true identity.'

Who they actually do that? It was a bit rude, but everyone would have wanted to know that, so they must have prepared for the question.

'I have many crises, but gender is not one. When the world turns on me I'll be gone. My eyes would be edible, but only if its colour matched the material. And Mrs. Dodds lines are always geometrical.'

So his name, Gossip Boy, was true to his gender. Edible eyes? That makes literally no sense. But the last part did. Mrs. Dodds was my higher mathematics teacher. So 'Gossip Boy' was in my class. That got the candidates down to 16. Well actually, 5, because the rest were girls. The bell rang, snapping me out of my thoughts.

'I have to go to higher mathematics now. I'll see you there :p'

---time skip cuz I'm lazy—

At the end of the maths lesson, Mrs. Dodds announced a new project: "create graphs for several regularly occurring activities at school. You're working in partners. Mister Di Angelo! Pay attention! You'll be paired with........ Mister Solace."

I looked around the room searching for 'Di Angelo'. A boy wearing black jeans and a black shirt had been doodling until the teacher called him out. Somewhere in the back of my head I remembered that his name was Nico. He ignored me completely when I sat down next to him. In an attempt to start a conversation, I asked: "are you okay with working on this today after school at my place?" he shrugged and then nobbed. "Meet me at the school gate after class okay?" he nobbed again and left as soon as the bell rang.

--another time skip—

After school Nico and I walked to my home. Meanwhile I texted 'Gossip Boy' again

'Soooo, who is your partner for the maths project?'

Nico was texting someone. He hadn't talked to me in the ten minutes we had been walking. When we got to my house I showed him my room. "do you want something to drink Nico?" he talked for the first time. "Sure". His voice was low and had something sensual about it. "Where is the restroom?" I quickly showed him the restroom and got drinks.

I arrived back in my room before Nico. My phone buzzed.

'You want to know. Just wait. But have you figured out who I am already? Or is my identity still safe?'

'I'm close. Just need to have it confirmed.'

Okay that was a straight up lie. I had no idea. 5 people. Behind me on the bed something buzzed. It was Nico's phone. On the home screen was a message. Me, being my curious self, read the message.

'I'm close. Just need to have it confirmed.'

Nico was Gossip Boy. I had been talking to Nico. A boy who I only knew as the guy that sits in the back of the class and doodles all the time. Nico was the guy who I had fallen in love with in less than 2 hours. The door opened and Nico appeared. He looked at me, at his phone and back at me.

"You're Gossip Boy! You are the one that posts everything about my life." Nico blushed deeply. "Yeah about that. I kind of did that because...because I'm into you. I like you."

He looked at me, expecting rejection. Instead, I took three steps forward and pushed him against the wall.

Without even hesitating I put my lips on Nico's.

'Hey Goode high school, Gossip Boy has been revealed. But in other news, Will Solace has a boyfriend. And these two items are connected because Gossip Boy is Nico Di Angelo also known as Will's boyfriend. So I have been revealed. Thanks for following my blog.
