"I don't know what you're talking about," the young man said.
He wasn't going to confirm anything until he was sure Victoria actually knew about the secret passage. That would be foolish.
Victoria, however, was much more specific to show them she knew what she was talking about.
"So you're telling me there's no passage that's unlocked by touching the stones on the wall, leading to an underground tunnel? The one you had to use because you were sneaking around kissing in the school?"
After being so specific, Victoria was sure they would start talking and stop pretending.
"So it was you who made that noise that night? We thought it was a guard or one of the teachers. Damn it."
The young man seemed very frustrated, but the girl with him calmed him down. She whispered in his ear, "She knows about us, and if she tells anyone, we'll be in trouble. Let's try to keep her as a friend so nothing goes wrong."
