Jonnor--A story about rebellious teenagers

Chapter 7

I pulled away from Conner's house and drove down the street. I felt anxious. I didn't know if I really wanted to get home or to go back so I decided to pull over. Not even a minute away from his house. I looked behind me and found his house in the midst of everyone else's. What if he was getting beat up? Without thinking I drove back and stared into the windows in which the curtains masked. His father couldn't have changed could he?

Jude's car. It was parked in front and Conner had only realized it from looking out the side window so that meant his father hadn't seen it. My room has a window doesn't it? But it's probably locked after all these years.

"I'm going to change for when the priest gets here."

My father's smile drew up against the edges of his mouth and he nodded.

"Hurry up." me said as I walked to my room. The window was still there and looked the same but did my dad do anything to it? I walked over to the window unlocked it from my side and tried to slide it open.

It opened. Ha! He was too much of a drunk to do anything. Jude must've realized I was opening the door because he ran over to help me out.

"The door wouldn't budge more then a foot open lengthwise so it was hard to fit through but Jude grasped me and pulled me out, us both falling to the floor.

"Ow.." He said as the pressure of me falling on him got to him.

"Let's hurry." I said as I saw a car coming to the driveway and a man opening the door for the priest. We were walking/jogging to the car when my dad opened the door to greet the priest.

"Conner!"

We had made it to the door and locked the car so no one could enter. My dad was running at the car like a mad man when Jude got the car started and drove away. Before we left we heard my dad screaming,

"I'll have you back in 24 hours! You better hope you can make it through therapy because otherwise everytime you see Jude you'll scream."

Jude looked at me confused.

"Therapy."

"What about therapy will make you not want to see me, Conner?"

"Conversion Therapy. Specifically, shock."

"No."

I nodded.

"Conner, you can't! I've heard stories.."

"I have too. I'm scared. I don't want my dad to find me. We can't go to your Moms' houses. We need a hotel. You are 18 right?"

"Yeah, but you're only 17."

"They only need ID from the buyer."

He nodded. Realizing how scared I was probably. He got on the phone with Steph and explained what was going on and asked if she could pay for a hotel for us.

Jude had gotten a scholarship to UCLA but Steph had been saving for his college so she asked if she could take from that. He told her it was fine and she payed for a hotel online for a week and had given them the address. The hotel was in Arizona. He thanked her and got off the phone.

"It's going to be a long drive better to get some sleep" he said.

We arrived at the hotel in 8 hours and Connor was still asleep. I went to the lobby and got our room key and then I went back to the car and woke him up.

"We're here?" He said groggily.

"Yep, this place is pretty nice, actually an okay price, and it has a pool. My mom got us a room with 2 queen beds with a bathroom and semi-kitchen aha I don't know what they call it."

I don't know what went on in that house but if I could just keep his dad off him for 3 months, 89 days and he'll be an adult. It was weird to think that we became adults so quickly. Or at least me.

We walked up to the room which was on the second floor and opened it. The room was beautiful and very cozy. We lay on the bed and I suddenly said it out of nowhere,

"What happened in that house?"

He flinched.

"My dad was really nice at the start. Or at least for a minute. Then he called me a dirty fag and told me I needed conversion therapy, but not just any, he told me he wanted me to get shock therapy. I told him I couldn't and then yeah."

"Oh and he told me he'd kill me."

"What?!"

"Yeah. But can we not talk about this."

I agreed and I was tired from the drive so I turned off the lights and slept.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Jude had turned off the lights, probably a little mad about how I handled things but I just couldn't. Everytime I look at Jude I want to kiss him and if I do and my dad finds out, he'll probably kill us both. I can't let that happen. But if my dad finds me and gives me that therapy I won't be able to experience and appreciate the feeling of having sex with the person you love. I really want to.

But I shouldn't.

I decided to leave the room for a bit and go look around the hotel. It was a few stories high and had a gym and pool. It was a unique experience for me because I'd never been to a hotel before.

Growing up with my dad, we didn't do anything fun. I played video games and he drank. Simple as that. My first plane ride was when I was shipped to my moms. It was awful. But the only light in my life is Jude so why can't I accept that. My dad could find me tonight. I want Jude.

I need Jude.

I ran up the stairs and put my card in the slot which I guess opens the door. I opened the door and sat in the bed Jude was sleeping in and I tapped him. No response. I shook him. "Ughh"

"Jude this is important."

"What?" He said groggily.

"I was wrong."

"About what?"

"Let's start where we left off."

Jude sat up and looked at me questionably.

"God I want to kiss you right now."

"Then why don't you?"
