With All My Heart, Tronnor

The cafè

Troye POV

With constantly tapping feet on the floor and taking in rushed sips from the very hot coffee in my hand, I tried Connor's phone yet again. It was almost 20 minutes of me just sitting on a wooden chair, with an empty one just across the table, in the cafe Connor and I were supposed to meet. After not getting a response to a few texts and 3 calls, I was slowly reconsidering going back to the studio, where I was supposed to be finalising the album artwork right now.

I knew he had a meeting and may be it ran long, but I was worried about him. He didn't seem anywhere close to 'ready for the meeting' earlier today and I just wanted to know if everything was okay.

The album was almost done. Final recording for just one song, and it was all set to be announced, only the artwork and the announcement video plan was to be finalised by today.

"But,why are you going out for lunch, we are ordering in, you can too. We have to finalise the stuff today, Troye" Alex, my co-writer had said when I was getting up to head out. I had totally forgotten that it was supposed to be done today and if I wasn't so worried about Connor, I might have even postponed our plans.

The decisions for the album were the only thing I didn't wanna make in a rush or with a distracted mind.

"This is important, Alex. I have to go but I'll be back soon and then we'll do it..?" I asked praying to the God above that she'd agree. With her own stuff to deal with, I knew she was supposed to leave soon but I only hoped that she wouldn't.

"Okayy.." She sighed.

I gave her a big bear hug with an over excited thanks and headed out only to sit alone in a rather empty cafe.

30 minutes in and I was gathering up my stuff to get up and leave until someone tapped shoulder. Expecting it to be Connor, I immediately turned my head around but was startled to meet with the least expected person at this moment.

Tyler Oakley.

"Fancy meeting you here.." He said.

"Hey..Tyler" I got up to give him an awkward little hug.

"Can I have a seat?" He asked, gesturing towards the empty chair. "And before you say anything, I know you're probably waiting for someone and don't worry, I'll be gone before they come. I just wanted to talk"

"Actually, I was just leaving.." I said, giving him an apologetic look and turned around to head back.

Before getting out the glass door, I looked back at Tyler. I missed him. He's my best friend and it had been forever since we last met, which actually ended with a hasty argument. I know he does things when he's full of rage, but he'll always be my friend. So, I decided to stay instead.

"You know," I said to him "..On second thought, I might as well stay"

.......

"So, you have like an entire album ready?" Tyler asked me while he sipped his coffee. 

"Yeah, kind of.." I replied, my eyes automatically darting towards the door whenever it opened, expecting Connor to come through it.

It hadn't been long since Tyler and I started talking, but it had been more than an hour of me waiting for him. I told Tyler everything about how the release was gonna be like, how an introductory EP was to be dropped followed by the actual album, later in the year.

"You know, staring at the door isn't gonna make him come any sooner" Tyler said breaking my trance "Why don't you just call him?"
