I'll Be~ Connor Franta~

Pianos...

"As he read, I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once."

― John Green, The Fault in Our stars

Everyone was doing all these moves, and I couldn't remeber any of them. "Connor...I don't know what to do..." I tried to explain as he grabbed my wrists and tried to get me to dance. "I can't even stand up straight..."

"Jc...just pretend we're alone again." He pulled me close. "Close your eyes and don't move." I did. Then I heard his skates scratch the ice meaning he was moving, "But if a skater comes...move." He mumbled. But I peeked when he came back and tried to get me to do the moves. I began to laugh and turned to face him.

"How about no..." I began to skate backwards like a pro one leg behind the other. I ended up at a dance circle while people were taking turns dancing.

"How. Did. You. Do. That?" He skated beside me. "I thought you didn't know how to skate!"

"I don't. But I do watch movies like 'Ice Princess' and stuff like that. And I pick up things pretty quick." I yelled over the music.

"Well...go in the dance circle and copy someone's moves from the movie." He told me ponting to the mob. I glance at them and frowned.

"C'mon! You need to be goofy once in your life! You need to have fun and let loose. Just...go in the middle and dance." I didn't answer. "Forget everything I said...and did. The past is in the past..." I chuckle at how dramatic he sounded.

"You didn't let me answer." I skated around him in a circle enjoying the ice. I stopped in front of him again. "I will go in that circle." I skated away but came back and grabbed his hand. "But you have to go with me." I pulled him behind me and pushed through the crowd. When we got in the middle, I quickly began to just wiggle and jump around. People started screaming and laughing.

Then Connor grabbed me. I looked at him, moving my hair from my face. "What?" I ask breathlessley.

He just looked down at me. "I just...I really am sorry."

Connor grabbed my chin and lifted it slightly. I could see his face get closer to mine, and his breath hitting my face. When his soft, pink lips touched mine, I panicked. His hands cupped my face and I hugged his waist. His touge flicked the bottom of my lip and it slid in.

Through my closed eyelids I could tell the lights turned on. I peeked. The mob had faded away and everything was normal. Except for two secret lovers making out in the middle of an ice rink.

I was the first to pull back. I just glaced at his lips and moved back noticing a shocked Ricky. Sam and Connor's mother was smiling. And Nicola clapped. I just chuckled at them and buried my red face in his shirt.

I picked out a short sleeved shirt and a pair of pajama pants to sleep in tonight. I was still in my t-shirt and jeans from earlier today."You butthole...you could've told me!" I joked to Andrea through the phone. "You could've given me a hint instead of making me hate you for almost three days.

"Kian told me not to tell you. And how did I know he was gonna kiss you in the middle of an ice rink!?" Just then two knocks on the door made me end the call with Andrea.

Connor stepped inside. "I have something for you..." He said, standing close to me.

"What? I whisper.

I thought he was gonna kiss me again but instead he put his hands around my neck. I felt something cold hit it and look down at my chest. A butterfly with green diamonds sat on a silver chain. He snapped it and slid his hands into mine. "Jc caylen..."
