My boy | Conrad fisher

Chapter twelve

I call Taylor but she doesn't answer.

She texts me.

tay- can't talk rn at a party, promise ill talk to u later x

great.

There was a knock on my bedroom door seconds later.

"Come in." I mumble.

My mom walks in.

"I've gave it some thought." She starts.

"And after seeing how Conrad reacted to you being missing, I'm willing to support your relationship."

"Okay number one, saying that I was 'missing' is an exaggeration, and also, that's what changed your mind?"

"Camila, we all phoned you. You could've called anyone of us back to tell us you were safe, you chose to tell Conrad, that must mean something right?"

I smile and give her a hug.

"I love you mama."

"I love you more mi amor."

"Now I think there's someone else wanting to talk to you.." She says.

As she says that Connie walks in the room.

I just off my bed and give him a hug.

"I'll leave yous two to talk." My mom whispers while she leaves the room.

"I'm sorry for yelling, I really hate yelling. I wasn't mad, I was just- well I was scared." He apologises.

"Don't apologise con, you had every right to yell. I left the house angry and it wasn't safe."

"While we were watching the news, Val kept saying that if you got hurt then it was all her fault."

"oh my gosh.."

"That's why everyone was so glad that you're safe."

I nod my head and rest in on his shoulder.

Seconds later, Jeremiah and Steven came crashing in making sure I was okay.

"Jesus when our moms told us you were missing we went round the whole town asking if anybody's seen you." Steven told me while hugging me.

"Do you guys mind? We were in the middle of a conversation." Conrad snaps.

"What are you, her boyfriend?" Jeremiah jokes.

"Yes, yes I am."

"Wait what." The boys both stare at us in shock.

"We were going to tell you earlier but you were both at work." I say.

They both look at eachother and then turn back to us and say.

"WE KNEW IT."

We all burst out into laughter.

It felt like a giant weight came off my shoulders after telling everyone.

A few minutes later Taylor called me.

The boys all left the room to give me some privacy to talk to Taylor.

"Hey, what's happening?"

"Me and Conrad told the family about us."

"Awe. What did they say?"

"It's a long story, I'll tell you tomorrow."

"Oh my god I almost forgot it's your 17th tomorrow."

"Yup, you'll be there right?"
