	Our Little Secret

**Our Little Secret**

**Disclaimer: I don't own Ugly Betty **

**So, after practically crying when Henry gave Betty the ultimatum about Gio last night, I came up with this. **

* * *

"Do you promise?" Henry asked her.

"I won't see him anymore, Henry. But I need to see him one more time."

Henry scoffed. "I knew it."

"No, Henry. He deserves an explanation. I can't just stop talking to him."

"Okay, fine." Henry smiled and gave her a quick peck on the lips. She had decided that she would go tomorrow. It would be easier and it would give her more time to think of what to say.

The next day Betty walked into Gio's deli. "The usual?" Gio asked.

"Well, I didn't really come here for food, Gio."

"Well…?" He asked. Betty just stared back at him. "I don't have all day," he smiled.

Betty groaned inside her head. _Why did he have to smile? It makes this so much harder. _She just didn't want to say anything at all. She wanted to continue to see him, but if she wanted to still be with Henry, she had to. Despite the fact that it was mean thing to do; giving her an ultimatum.

"Gio…" Betty felt like crap. She didn't want to do this. She wasn't a mean person.

"Betty, are you feeling okay?" he asked concerned.

She _really _felt bad now. "Gio, stop it. I came here to tell you that I can't see you anymore."

Gio scoffed, "Is this because of Henry?"

"For some reason Henry is jealous whenever we're together." Betty could see the steam rising from his head. _Oh, God. Not good. _

Gio nodded. "So he just gave you an ultimatum? Real classy, Egg salad." He walked out from behind the counter.

"Gio, you said you wouldn't call him that anymore."

"Yeah, because we're friends, but obviously we're not."

"Gio, we are friends. It's just that-"

"You're being stupid when he's about to leave in a month. How are _you _going to feel when he leaves? When he's with Charlie raising the baby. I thought you were better than this Betty. Agreeing to his ultimatum?"

"He just doesn't want to believe that we're nothing more than friends," Betty's face lit up. She had a light-bulb moment. Gio noticed it, and he looked at her like he was crazy.

"Gio…he doesn't have to know. I like that you're my friend, Gio. And I want to keep seeing you."

Gio nodded. "So...you're going to go against Egg salad's wishes?"

Betty nodded.

"Okay…he doesn't have to know. It'll be our little secret."

"Okay, our little secret," She grinned. "I'll see you tomorrow, Gio," She smiled before she turned around to leave. Little did she know, Gio was jumping for joy on the inside. He was ecstatic. Not just because he'd get to see her again, but because he stopped her from doing something stupid. Well not totally stopped her. She _was_ still with Henry.

**Does that seem more like a first chapter to you guys? It does to me. If you want me to continue I guess I could, but for now it's just a one-shot.**
