******
Connor wasn't really in control of his own feet or body at the moment as Ransom and Holster pushed him along before he crashed down on the infamous green couch. They were talking to him, saying something about his type or likes but he wasn't really paying attention. Jude and Bitty were going out? But...Connor couldn't make any sense of that. He didn't even know that Jude was gay! Sure he was an art major, from California, attended Samwell, was really sarcastic and had a wicked sense of humor...okay he probably should have known, but they had never really talked about it and now he is dating Bitty?
"So come on Con, tell us what you look for in a date?" Holster's question punched through the fog.
"Brunette" was the first word out of Connor's mouth. "I like brunettes" he repeated tonelessly.
"Okay...anything else? Tall, short, favorite attributes?" Ransom demanded of him.
Connor wanted to get out of here but he couldn't move. "Tall...smart...soulful eyes" he muttered.
The guys were silent for a minute before Holster suddenly laughed so loud that Connor looked up in shock. "Oh, I know exactly who!" he crowed. "Daria!" he said looking at Ransom whose eyes lit up.
"DUDE!" Ransom yelled as they high fived. "She is perfect! We will call her" Ransom promised Connor and the next thing he knew they were running up the stairs leaving Connor alone in the living room. Seeing his chance he made for the door to get out of here and figure all of this out. Walking out the door he almost collided with the person walking up the walk.
"Bro!" he heard Lardo yell and he looked up narrowly avoiding the collision. "Where are you tearing off to?" she asked.
"Uh...I got to go...sorry" Connor muttered and took off leaving her standing there looking after him confused.
Lardo walked into the house and heard voices in the kitchen and walked in to see Jude and Connor talking and she felt a strange tension in the air. "Hey guys. Any idea what's going on? Con almost ran me over trying to get out of here" she asked them after nodding hello.
"The poor boy was attacked by Ransom and Holster. They are on a crusade to get everyone dates for Winter Screw" Bitty told her with a sigh. "Last I saw him, he was firmly in their clutches being dragged out of the kitchen."
Lardo snickered at that thought. "Better watch out Bitty...I am sure that they will be coming for you soon then" she said warning him as she pulled out a glass to pour herself some ice water and sitting down at the kitchen table.
"Too late" Bitty sighed.
"Awww, sorry" she said not sounding sorry in the slightest. "Who did they pick for you?" she asked him with a smirk.
"That would be me" Jude told her. Lardo's eyes widened slightly before she looked over at Bitty for confirmation and when he nodded in agreement she set her glass down.
"Well, that's...unexpected" she finally said looking back and forth between them. "Not sure I would have thought of that" she said slowly. "How are you feeling about this Bitty?" she asked looking at him.
Bitty took a deep breath and turned around to look at her with a big smile on his face. "It's great Lardo!" he chirped. "I mean we do have a lot in common and Jude is really sweet so it should be lots of fun, right Jude?"
Lardo looked at Jude who was watching them with a strange expression before he smiled back at Bitty. "Definitely" he said sounding overly cheerful. "I mean I've heard about this party and who wouldn't like to go with Eric" he smiled at her.
