~Connor's POV~

I had the whole night planned out in my head.

Firstly, I'd invite him to hang out. Secondly, I'd find a way to make sure Tyler wasn't there. Thirdly, we'd talk. Who knows for how long, it could be five minutes or an hour. Fourthly, I'd kiss him. Fifthly, he'd kiss back. Sixthly, we'd get out alive, and seventhly, we'd start dating. Hopefully I can at least get to step four, I thought.

I had my doubts, it's not like I was completely oblivious to the way he looks at Tyler, it is obvious. I wouldn't be surprised if he likes him, even if that's the last thing I want. Then again, the only thing I wanted was for Troye to be happy. And if he's happy without me in his life, then he had the right to not bring me in. It's simple. If I don't make Troye happy, then I shouldn't force myself into his life.

Except for tonight, I thought. I have to see if this is all in my head, or if it's a petty crush. Right then and there, I thought of something. It's like a ladder of infatuation. I love Troye, Troye most likely loves Tyler, and who knows who Tyler loves, who knows if he loves anyone at all.

But the point is, I'm pouring all of me into Troye, who's doing the same to Tyler. He makes my heart shake, bend, even break, and I can't stop thinking about him. He's driving me wild. He'll never love me, I'm searching for something I can't reac- shut up, I told myself. You're just assuming things. I can't make him love me, but I'll try. Oh, the lord knows I'll try.

How long till he waves goodbye?

~

Ten minutes after my inner monologue, I went to go get Troye. He came, but it seemed like he didn't want to. Maybe I wasn't so wrong about him liking Tyler.

The whole time we talked, the whole time, he seemed out of it. Like he was thinking about something else. Someone else.

Before him, I thought, I never knew loving could hurt this good.

That's when I decided to kiss him.

~??? POV~

I watch him lean in on the security cameras.

Troye looks shell shocked and gobsmacked, awestruck all the same.

After he leaves, I'm a fiery ball of anger that's definitely aflame.

"No! No! No! I did NOT plan this!" I yell, slamming my fists onto the table.

Well... Looks like Mr. Franta has overstayed his welcome...

~

I walk carefully across the staircase into the hallway, knowing the layout by heart.

I get to Connor's one way love struck room and lightly tap on the door.

He runs to the door and opens it, exclaiming "Troye?!"

He's faced with the front of my gun.

He's mortified eyes scan over my smug face.

"Y-you?"

I nod and push him inside.

"I really wish I didn't have to do this, Con, but you messed up the plan. And no of interferes with the plan."

"I... I don't understand..."

I roll my eyes.

Shocker.

"If you had the power to kill anyone here, why would you kill Joey at all, let alone first?! Why not someone who actually deserves it... Like oh I don't know... Tyler?"

I scoff and turn around.

"Of course not! Tyler didn't go off the plan. Joey did. Tyler even took initiative to put everyone in rooms!"

Lightbulb!

"Although... He was kind of biased selecting roommates. But the rest was mutual. The bed sharing was mutual. The morning cuddles were mutual and it was a mutual decision that they both realized they enjoyed good night kisses."

"No! It's not true! It can't be true!"

I turn around and wrap the belt around his neck securely.

"Sorry to break the news. But let's be honest here. It's very true."

And with that, his neck was constricted. He flailed around for a while until his tearful eyes stopped blinking.

His broken heart stopped beating.

Now, back to schedule.
