Jude's POV:
I woke up going straight to the bathroom. Since I was at the hospital late last night, I woke up late. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth but I saw Mariana's blue nail polish. It had been the exact same one she painted my nails with. Suddenly I had an idea.
*skip to hospital*
I walked out of the elevator with my hands sort of hiding my nail polish. I walked into the waiting room with a brave look even though I didn't feel that way on the inside. I walked straight to the nurse's desk.
"Hi.. I'm looking for Connor Stevens' room..??" I didn't want to be rude and just walk by. Plus I didn't know what room he was in.
"And you are?" The nurse asks concerned. Dang it what do I say
".....his cousin.." I hesitated on that one.
"..325 straight down the hall" she knew I wasn't his cousin. But she could care less about my life.
I walked straight to his room. Before I could take another step Connor's dad walked out of his room. I stopped walking as he looked up and noticed me.
I wanted to run. But I had to stand up to him and see Connor..no matter the cost.
"What are you doing here? I told your mom I didn't want you hanging around Connor." He wanted me gone.. Forever. But I didn't care.
"I know. I want to see him. I wanna see my 'friend' and I'm not leaving until I do" (when I saw the re-run I noticed he said friend in a weird way. Like he knew they were boyfriends😂) he looked at me with an angry face. Before I knew it I was sitting on the hospital floor with my back against the wall and I saw mamma walk in. Oh great he called my mom and now I'm going to be in so much trouble. Mr. Stevens walked up to her and said he wants me gone.
"I'm gonna go grab a cup of coffee. And when I get back, he needs to be gone or else I'm gonna call security." He walked away leaving mamma with a shocked look.
She sat down next to me and tried to comfort me.
" honey I know how hard this must be for you I do.... Loosing a friend is one of the most painful things to go through." I swear when she said friend my heart broke even more.
" but mr. Stevens made it very clear tha-" I cut her off before she could say anything else.
"He's not my friend." I wanted to cry so bad.
"...... Connor's... not your Friend..?" She said confused
I couldn't say anything. I just nodded my head. But then I spoke.
"There were no girls. In the tent." I paused and continued. "It was just us. We kissed... And now we're like..." I couldn't finish the sentence without breaking into tears so I stopped and waited for mamma to say something.
"More than friends..?"
It hurt and I couldn't hold the tears back.
"Connor... He told his dad." I started to cry and cry and my mom took me into her arms and hugged me tightly.
As Connor's dad walked in mom got up and walked up to him. I didn't want to hear what they said so I just blocked out their conversation and stared straight ahead. Thinking of what would happen to Connor when he gets back home. I couldn't take it anymore. I had to see him.
Then his dad just walked pasted me signaling me to his room. I got up and followed. I felt something....Happiness
Connor's POV:
I was watching tv when I heard people talking outside. I could've sworn I heard Jude's voice but I had to be dreaming. He wasn't allowed to be here. I looked back at the tv and my dad walked into the room. I was confused to why he was just standing there holding the door open. Then I saw him. My Jude walk into the room. I smiled big. I couldn't take the smile off my face. I was so happy. I was still confused to why my dad let him in but I didn't care. I was just happy to see him. My dad closed the door as just walked to my bed. I wanted to kiss him so bad. I grabbed his hand and stated stroking my thumbs to his fingers. I saw something on his fingers.
"What's this?" I asked oblivious
"...war paint.." I was so happy to hear that sweet sweet voice of his again. I smiled as he looked at the tv. I moved over to make room for him as he got on the bed. He took his hand and placed it on mine. Slowly intertwined his fingers with mine. I felt butterflies.
Jude's POV:
I was so happy to be able to see Connor again. I was the first to break the silence.
"So.. um... What happened with Daria." I asked knowing he would say nothing.
"Oh. I broke up with her" I can't believe that he broke up with Daria.
"You did? Really? What did she say?"
"She was mad but I don't care."
"Do you think she's going to do something to you?"
"Nah. Even if she does I'm not gonna be scared of a girl. Especially Daria." He said as we both started to laugh.
I looked back at the tv then at Connor. Turns out he had been staring at me this whole time.
"What?" I asked
"Nothing. It's just that I'm really glad you're here. I missed you a lot" he started to tear up.
"Well I'm here now. I missed you too. I was waiting outside your room for like an hour!"
" really? Why?"
"Your dad wouldn't let me in and I told him I wasn't leaving until he let me see you"
He didn't say anything. He just smiled and kept looking at me.
"So....umm what are we now?" I asked nervously
"What do you mean?" He knew what I was talking about but I didn't mind asking him.
" what are we? Friends or more?"
He didn't say anything. He just looked at me and smiled. Then he finally said "more." He smiled and leaned him to kiss me. As he pressed his soft warm lips on mine the butterflies started coming back and my cheeks were as red as a tomato. I pulled back and smiled.
"I'm glad" I exclaimed
"About what" he asks
"About you being my boyfriend" I loved saying that and I could tell he loved hearing it because he smiled.
He leans back in to kiss me and I kiss him back. He places his Hand on my waist and I place my hand on his cheek. We were kissing for about a minute and we both pulled back to breathe. I love him and I'm never letting go of him. I couldn't wait to be able to kiss him in public and not care what anyone else thinks or says. We stare at each other and smile. We enterwined our fingers together as we both looked back at the tv. I have never been happier.
