I had a miniature heart attack as I looked back and forth between the door and the living room, thinking to myself that I never should've done all of this, or maybe, I should've gone and told my other friends after all. I could probably deal with the humiliation after a while, but right now, I really can't afford to do that. I paced about my front door for a moment and heard knocking on the door once again.

"Hey, you in there Moon-" Minuette called out, making me panic even further as I forcibly changed back to myself, messed up my hair, and then opened up the door just slightly with a fake tired look on my face. "Oh, there you are" Minuette chuckled, looking me over. The other girls had those internally cringing looks on their eyes again though, looking at me with some level of contempt as they typically did.

"Told you she was sleeping" Twinkleshine chimed in, Minuette and Lemon Hearts just nodding to themselves slightly.

"Oh, hey girls" I greeted, faking a yawn soon after. I figured that if anything, I may as well play along with what Twinkleshine assumed, playing off of her as I gave them an awkward smile.

"We just wanted to stop by and ask if you wanted to have some fun over by the coffee place? I heard that the guy working the grinder there is into books and junk, so maybe you'd wanna check him out?" Minuette asked me, giving me a rather plain smile.

"Oh, I'd love to, but I've got some other things here and there to take care of today. Gotta record some details, collect information, you know, the usual stuff" I chuckled, responding in a somewhat eager way as I shuffled my legs behind me slightly. The girls just looked at me as though there were something going on, Lemon Hearts looking especially unusual before looking like something just occurred to her in her mind, making her blush as she whispered a few things into the other girls' ears.

"Oh, well, it's alright. We just have to....Well, we just don't wanna bother you is all" Minuette stated, grinning to herself with a knowing look on her face. I was blushing rather madly as I felt the urge to tell them that they were wrong for what it was that they were thinking, but unfortunately for me, they wound up choosing to walk away right then and there.

With nothing else to do, I merely closed the door and gave a little sigh as I closed my eyes and focused. When I opened them back up though, I felt like my entire heart sank directly into the pits of despair, as I found Sharpshot standing there with an unamused look on his face and his arms crossed over his chest. His otherwise lifeless eyes stared directly into my soul, boring straight into me as I could only hear the thundering of my heart beating in my chest. He didn't say so much as a word, and we were both just standing there for who knows how long, I was beginning to wonder just what he would say to me when he brought his arms down to his sides and his expression softened.

"Your use of magical cosmetics is not needed" he deadpanned, making my eyes widen and my heart sink even further.

"H-how long have you known....?" I asked, keeping my voice quiet. I honestly didn't know what had been worrying me more right now; the fact that Sharpshot knew my secret, or that he was actually speaking up when he was never that much into conversations to begin with.

"I have been aware for some time, but I had never had any actual proof until just now" Sharpshot answered, confirming that I had been slipping in keeping things secret between both of my different lives. I felt as though everything that I had come to enjoy now was over, and I almost knew for certain that he would tell the others and ruin me.

"I will not tell the others myself, but I will not encourage you to maintain that other form of yours either" he eventually said, turning and walking away from me, likely back to the living room to continue being as silent and almost nonexistent as possible. I was just leaning back against the door and sunk down to my flanks, sitting down and thinking that I had to be especially careful to not let anything bad happen out of nowhere.

Once I had finished moping, I changed back into Cupid Moon and walked back in, trying to keep up a happy expression as I sat down on the couch. Shining had stretched herself out while Chocolate Surprise merely had a neutral look as she sat down properly. I wasn't entirely certain whether or not I could've told them, especially after everything that we've been through as of late. Sure, we didn't know each other for years or anything, but that didn't mean that I was right to be lying to them.

"Cupid, you look like you've got something on your mind, what's up?" Shining suddenly asked me, though I hardly felt much of a need to answer her.

"Oh, it's just.....Well, it's just some other friends of mine is all. Just kinda visited for a moment" I told her, though I was surprised with how she didn't try to pry into me any further than that and just relaxed on the couch.

"I can certainly understand why you'd be worried, but I don't really think that you should feel like that. It's certainly not like you're withholding information from them or anything" Chocolate then stated, making me cringe internally as I peered over towards Sharpshot, whom of which merely shot me back a blank stare in return. He looked as though he was somebody I could trust on the matter like this, but he also didn't feel like someone I could totally depend on keeping something secret. I just hoped that things would work out for the rest of the day.

An hour or so later, and the trio soon took their leave, keeping themselves from staying over too late as I finally got the opportunity to change back to my normal self, smaller breasts and all. It felt good being myself for a change, and I was nearly tempted to call the girls over when I realized that they probably would just be teasing me about what I was doing earlier this morning and decided against it.

Honestly, today was a scare that I didn't need to have. If anything, I was actually tempted to just stay indoors for the next day or two, just to be absolutely careful. Stress like that really managed to make me feel bad, and it almost made me feel guilty for lying to my friends, but I guess I'll probably just deal with all of that later. For now, it was time for me to relax.

Author's Notes:

Get the joke? Here's a hint; it rhymes with a song.

Other than that, I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume most people have actually forgotten about Sharpshot being there by now.
