'this is before Connor moves away if he moves away'

Jude has been so stressed lately, he has a bunch of homework to do. Today I am going over to his house to help him. When I arrive at his house he is playing video games in the living room on the PSP I gave him. "Jude you have to do your homework, I know you're stressed but come on." I look at him, he does not take his eyes off the PSP. "Fine," he sighs and turns the game off places it on the couch. Jude pulls the books off the coffee table and sets them on his lap. "Let's start with math," He says, Jude's worst class is math.

We complete the math homework, I look to Jude. He looks like hes about to cry, "Babe are you alright?" My eyes widen in concern. "Not really... Im just so stressed and I can't focus on anything. Im just so tired of feeling like this." I put my arm around his shoulder to comfort him. "Jude it's alright, you have so much going on in your life." I pull him in closer. Jude looks at me, "I just need a break for a minute... Want to play some games?" "I guess that would be okay for a little, as long as it makes you feel better." I smile at him and stare into his eyes. He gets up and turns on the xbox and grabs two controllers. Judes hand touched mine as he hands me the controller. He slumps down beside me, I move in closer to have our bodies touch. "I am going to cream you." Jude says and chooses Call of Duty. I just want Jude to feel good, I don't want him to stress.

We play for about twenty minutes before I remarked "Jude your homework! You still have history left..." He looks at me and makes a face, "One more game come on! Anyways we are tied!" I nudge his shoulder lovingly. "Fine, this is the last game," I insisted. Jude starts a new game and deeply stares at the screen, pressing the buttons on his controller.

I win the round "Guess who won!" I squander and grab Judes arm and lightly squeeze it. "I am still not ready to finish my homework. You are sleeping over right? Can't I finish it tomorrow morning before you leave?" He muttered. "Well yeah I am sleeping over, but will you really want to do it tomorrow morning?" I glance at my watch it is only 7. "Jude I get you don't want to do your homework but you have to, playing video games won't finish it for you." I respond, he looks hurt by what I said. "Connor please..." Jude whimpered.

We played video games the rest of the night.
