Keeping It Secret. *A ConnorFranta Fanfic*

Chapter 8

Willow

As I cried into JC's shirt I heard the doorbell ring. How the fuck did Connor get here that fast?! I Pulled out of the hug and tightened my ponytail as it was halfway down my head now after that nap, so I look like shit. I Lightly jogged down the stairs where I was tackled into a bear hug from a crying Connor. I Wrapped my arms tightly around his neck hugging him. I've missed him even though I've only been gone a few hours. "Don't ever leave like that again! You scared the crap out of me Willow!" He said, we'd been hugging for what felt like ages. I Just didn't want to let go and neither did he. "I'm sorry Connor" I Cried. "It's Okay. I Still don't understand why you left though?" He asked. God. Now I have to explain. What am I gonna say?!

Connor

I Rang the doorbell of the O2L House. I'd left the key that I have to the house at my apartment as I was in such a rush to get out. Kian answered the door and then Willow came jogging down the stairs. I Tackled her in a hug and I never wanted to let go. "Don't ever leave like that again! You scared the crap out of me Willow!" I Said, tears pouring down my face, thank god she's okay. "I'm sorry Connor" She cried. "It's Okay. I Still don't understand why you left though?" I Asked. "Can we head home? I'll explain there." She said. "Of Course. Jc, thankyou for telling me she here, god knows what I would have done if you hadn't of told me" I Said giving him a hug. "No Problem bro, I'd never seen you in such a state. I Couldn't leave you in that state not knowing where she was" He said, hugging me back. I Smiled and said goodbye to the guys before leaving and getting in the Car and Willow followed. "Were you asleep?" I Asked her. "Yeah, I needed to nap, to get my mind off things" She mumbled, her eyes were all glossy and red from crying. "Hey, Don't Cry! What's wrong?" I Asked turning to face her, I hadn't switched the car on yet, and I wasn't going to until I found out what was wrong and why she left. "Um.... I Left, because, When I asked you if you were okay, you said you were fine, and that nothing was wrong, I could tell straight away that you were lying because I can read you like a book Con. It scared me because we've always told each other everything, and I was worried about you. I Was thinking about it too much and it scared me and stressed me out. I'm sorry" She whispered at the end. "Willow. Yes, I was lying, there was something wrong, but I'd rather not talk about it right now. I Just wanna put it behind me, and its okay. Don't be sorry, I should be sorry for making you worried." I Said hugging her. "No you shouldn't. It's my fault for just leaving. Anyway, can we just head home, it's late now and I just wanna sleep" She asked. "Sure, lets go" I Smiled as I put the keys in the ignition and revved the engine and drove off. We were home in minutes. "Do you want a cup of tea before you go to bed?" I Asked her. "Yes Please" She nodded. "You go get ready for bed, I will go make the tea" I Smiled as I hugged her and left a kiss on her forehead.

Willow

"You go get ready for bed, I will go make the tea" Connor smiled hugging me, and leaving a soft kiss on my forehead. Did he just kiss my forehead?! I Just brushed it off and headed to what used to be the spare room, which is now my room, and changed into my old shorts and a baggy tee. I Tied my hair back again so that stray bits of hair were out the way. Then I heard Connor walk in. "Here's your tea" He smiled as he passed it to me. I Smiled as I took the mug from his hand and thanked him. He gave me one last hug goodnight before heading down the hall to his room. God that was stressful. Yet it was actually a good day for the majority of it, I am living with my life long best friend....... I Internally screamed at the thought. This actually happened.

Connor

As I walked into my room and laid down on my bed, I opened up my laptop to do some quick editing. My mind filled with thoughts, but one in particular.... Why did Willow get so upset when I told her nothing was wrong? I Just had her on my mind in general. As I was editing I was also IM'ing the O2L group chat.

Kian; Con, Is Willow OK now?
Connor; Yeah Bro, Thanks for taking her back to the O2L house, or I might never have found her. It really means a lot
Kian; No problem bro :)
Ricky; Are you coming over tomorrow to film Con?
Connor; Yeah, is it alright if Willow comes? I Was thinking we could do an Ask O2L and Willow kinda thing for the Channel?
JC; Sure, She's always welcome! and that's a great idea! Anyway, I'm gonna get to sleep, I'll see you guys in the morning.
Connor; I'm gonna get some sleep too guys, I Will see you tomorrow, Night guys.

I Shut down the chat and then shut down my laptop before grabbing my phone and shooting Willow a text, I don't particularly wanna go in her room if she's already asleep.

To WillowPillow!; Hey, I Didn't wanna come in your room in case you're already asleep but I Was gonna go over to the O2L house tomorrow to film, we wanted to film and ask O2L and Willow kinda thing, You up for it?x I Typed and then hit send. I Got a reply instantly.
From WillowPillow!; Hey! Nope, Not asleep, and yeah I'm up for it! What time we going?x I smiled at the text and answered straight away, she's the only person I don't keep waiting for a text, everyone else can wait.
To WillowPillow!; Around 11.30 x
From WillowPillow!; Ok, I'm gonna get some sleep, I'll see you in the morning Con, Night x
To WillowPillow!; Night :) x

I Hit send and locked my phone before plugging it in and setting it on the bedside table. I Slipped under the covers before closing my eyes and falling to sleep, again, Willow on my mind.
