Wild Fools, Talk Me Down || Tronnor

It was like any other day to Connor. Except he was ironing out clothes with his father. He was trying his best not to make him mad since he'd already had four beers that morning.

Connor looked to his right only to see Troye. Connor immediately put down the iron telling his dad he'd only be a minute. He walked over to Troye then said, "You shouldn't be here! You need to leave."

"Please let me stay. Please." He pleaded like his life was on the line.

"I can't you know that. He wouldn't like that." Troye tried to take Connor's face in his hands but Connor turned away.

"Fine. Then I'll go. Bye Troye." Connor said then walked back over to his father.

Connor was scared; it was obvious. "What did he want?"

"Nothing dad. It's fine." Connor stated firmly. His father put an arm over the boys shoulder walking him back to iron the clothes.

Connor had gotten a girl friend which wasn't something he liked. He didn't hate the girl he just hated that he didn't even like her. All the 'I love yous' were fake. He only dated her to please his dad. She was beautiful, yes. But he's just not into girls.

Connor and his girl friend were walking on the side walk when Connor looked up seeing his best friend and crush, Troye. He knew he had to kiss her or hold her hand but he didn't want to. After Troye passed by the couple, Connor took her hand seeing as Troye wouldn't see it.

*FlashBack*

Connor's dad had gotten drunk later that day after Troye visited. He had pushed Connor into his room onto the bed. "Talk to that kid one more time, I'll kill both of ya."  He father yelled at him before walking out of his room slamming the door shut.

Connor cried the rest of the day and night until he fell asleep. It was the worst thing that could've ever happened to him. He was afraid. Afraid that Troye would find someone else; someone better.

But he didn't want to get beat anymore. So he did what his dad told him. He didn't talk to Troye. Didn't even look at him. He didn't want the love of his life to die because of him.
