Yes, do it, then when revealed asked for forgiveness.

What some people don't understand, people who really don't believe in God, is that there are no secrets. God knows every secret and He can reveal that secret to anyone. So just because someone may be good at keeping their mouth shut, the secret can still get out there.

2 Nephi 12
97 There is nothing which is secret, save it shall be revealed; there is no work of darkness, save it shall be made manifest in the light; and there is nothing which is sealed upon the earth, save it shall be loosed.
98 Wherefore, all things which have been revealed unto the children of men, shall at that day be revealed;
99 And Satan shall have power over the hearts of the children of men no more, for a long time.
