Connor has always been a music junky. Since the day he could form his own opinions he's had one after the other about each new song on the radio.
So when he heard 20 year old Australian singer Troye Sivan, he was more than willing to spit out all his thoughts on the throaty dark pop.
At 19 years old Connor has every album, poster, and t-shirt around. The only thing missing? Attending a concert.
Connor prides himself on being a super fan, he knows everything there is to know when it comes to his idols, and not attending a concert is tearing him down.
He has dreamt of the day that Troye would bring his tour to the small state of Minnesota, but things just don't work out the he wants them too. His parents wouldn't let him go anyway, he was diagnosed with epilepsy when he was 12, a disorder that causes him to have spontaneous seizures whenever he's around to many people or to many flashing lights.
And Connor hates it. He hates the restraints it has on him, he hates the social anxiety it gives, and he hates the "I'm sorry's" and "are you okay?'s" that accompany it. He done with people fawning over and sympathizing him. He can handle himself.
So when Troye announced his 2016 Blue Neighbourhood tour and Connor saw Minnesota on the list he didn't even bother to ask.
He continued his routine like normal, not even brining it up to his family has his usual moods went from down to worse almost 24/7. That was, until the day he got the big news.

"That's what I'm saying, I know they'll get together. All the facts are there." Connor can hear his best friend Hayley laugh on the other end of the line as he searches his closet for today's outfit.
"Connor, your on episode 11 of the first season!" He rolls his eyes and grabs a plain white t-shirt from its hanger.
"Exactly, and the fact that I'm already certain makes my case ten times stronger." They're currently discussing How To Get Away With Murders Connor and Oliver and their relationship status. Connors a firm believer that despite everything that's happened that they'll live happily ever after while Hayley's still on the fence.
"What ever you say lover boy." is her response and Connor smiles when he hears that he's won. "On a different and less controversial note, did you hear that Troyes going to be in Minnesota in like two weeks?"
"Yes." He says as if it's common knowledge that everyone knows.
"Well then why are you not flipping your shit? Your like his number one fangirl." Hayley states and Connor sighs, rubbing his eyes as he now stands in light blue jeans and his shirt of choice from earlier.
"Because there's no way in hell my parents would let me go." His voice comes out sad and low as the cruel fact weighs him down more.
"Have you even asked though?"
"Why would I when I already know their answer? I know my parents H, they'll say no and it's as simple as that." With a defeated sigh, the second one this morning, Hayley surrenders.
"Alright, alright. Now onto the topic of Beyonces dress from last night."

Connor walks down stairs and greets his family with a tired hello, pulling a cup down from the cupboard and filling it with hot tea. His conversation with Hayley ended the same way it started, with HTGAWM and promises to call the next second they get.
"Good morning Con, have you taken your meds?" his mom Cheryl asks and he sighs.
"Yes mom." she lays a gentle kiss on his head.
