Let's Have Fun || Tronnor AU

//Troye's POV//

The whole walk from Chipotle to Target, Zoe continued to tease me about Connor. I wasn't mad that she was making fun, what got me upset was most of the stuff she was saying, was hilarious. I couldn't even try to hold in my laughter.

That's one reason I loved Zoe, she could make any situation funny, but she could also be the nicest person you will ever meet and know exactly how to comfort someone.

Still listening to Zoe taunt me, I pulled out my phone and texted Connor;

To Con da bon:
We r in target, where r u?

"Are you texting the love of your life?" Zoe smirked and winked at me.

Before I could come up with a witty comeback, my phone buzzed;

From Con da bon:
In aisle 3

My eyes scanning for aisle three was a quick task when I spotted the perfect quiff that I have come to love.

It's the coffee aisle. No surprise.

Connor was kneeling down, looking at different varieties of caffeine filled beverages that he was absolutely obsessed with. Alfie was standing behind him struggling to hold all the boxes of coffee Connor had obviously told him to hold.

"Should I get Caramel or French Vanilla?" Connor asks not realizing Zoe and I were present, only Alfie had so being the asshole he was he, decided to take the perfect chance to harass me.

"I don't know. What does Troye like?" He chuckles lightly.

"He is more into chocolaty beverages but the only one that they have is sugar-free and he has a strong hate towards sugar-freeness." My face turned to crimson blush at the way he could name useless facts about me at the top of his head.

"You sure do know a lot about Troye." Alfie winks at Zoe, clearly implying something to his last sentence.

"Well yeah. I've known him his whole life. I think its safe to say I know more about him then he knows himself." He chuckles. "Anyway, the caramel is higher in calories-"

I don't bother listening to the rest of his sentence as I pull Zoe quickly out of the aisle unnoticed.

"Troye, what wa-" She stops noticing the tear roll down my face. "What's wrong?"

"Didn't you hear him?! He thinks he knows everything about me but he doesn't know one of the biggest details about myself! I don't deserve him. He has never lied to me, he's open about everything. From his love for photography to his sexuality! But here I am, lying to the person who has stood by me through everything that has happened!" I finally allow myself to take a breath after my big rant.

She doesn't say anything, almost not reacting until she wraps her delicate arms around me. My head falls into her neck perfectly as she rubs circles on my back, whispering that "Everything will be okay." and "Its never to late to tell the truth."

I knew everything she was saying was the truth. So I made the silent promise to myself that I would tell Connor about me being gay (leaving out the fact I was big time crushing on him) the next time I was alone with him. If the moment was right.

Zoe had covered for me so I could excuse myself to the restroom without Connor being suspicious.

After letting my eyes set to a color that wasn't alarming that I had been crying, I left the stinky stall restroom that had been used thousands of times before by a very large population of people. I pulled my phone out deciding calling instead of going on a search through the large store for my three friends.

I dialed the all to familiar phone number, placing it to my ear. It rang only once before I could hear Connor's voice, "Hey Tro!" I smiled at the nickname he had gave me years ago. I had always told him how much I hated the name but secretly, I loved it. It was his special name for me, he was the only one who used it and I just found it adorable.

"Hey, where are you guys?" I question, bitting my nail. I really need to stop this bad habit... Oh well.

"Um, meet us at the front of the store, uh we'll be there in a minute." I can tell from his tone that he his hiding something from me.

"Connor, what are you doing?" My suspicions are correct when I can hear Zoe in the background saying something along the lines of, 'Shh don't tell.'

"It's nothing just um, Alfie will meet you at the front right now." Just like he said, I see Alfie's body pop out of one of the eyes, spotting me and running over.

"Okay I see him..." I say to Connor, "Wha-"

Before I can continue to question what the hell was going on he interrupts me and says, "Shh don't worry." And hangs up.

I look up and see Alfie had made his way up to right next to me. "Alfie, what are you guys not tellin' me?"

"Its nothing bad, I swear." I let all the bad thoughts leave my mind and wait to see if he will continue. After a few silent moments I decide begging will be the only way to get the information out of him. I look up at him and slowly turn my mouth into a pout, batting my eyelashes. "Troye. No." He turns his face away from me.

"Pwease?" I drag the e sound for three seconds longer then necessary.

His attention moving from me to the floor, as if deciding what he will do. "Its-"

'A friend indeed, come build me up. Come shed your light' My phone ringtone, Don't Wait by Mapei, sounds from my front pocket.

'Con da bon'

"Connah, are you going to tell me what is going on now?"

"Almost. Be patient." His giggle bringing a smile to my face. "We are checking out now. Be there in like two minutes."

"Okay, I'm counting. One Mississippi. Two Mississippi. Three Mississippi."

"I get it! I get it!" He giggles loudly into the phone.

"Hurry up!" I say before hanging up.

"You know you blush anytime you talk to him." Alfie stares away from me with a straight face.

"Shut up."
