Too Fast (A Connor Franta Fanfiction)

Chapter 27

^Lilly's P.O.V.^

We all got in the car and Connor drove off.

Connor pulled up to the driveway and we got our stuff from the car and headed inside.

I went downstairs and put my hot topic bags on the bed. I quickly folded the shirts and put all the accessories in my suitcase.

I changed from my sundress to a loose top and some jeans.

*knock knock*

"Come in" I said.

Jen opened the door and walked in holding a bag.

"Hey, I got you something"

"Really? All I got was TV show merch from Hot Topic! You can have anything except my Dean Winchester T-Shirt! He's mine!" I said, with half-joking possessiveness.

"Lol okay, thanks! Here!" she said handing me a bag.

"Thank you!" I said taking the Forever 21 bag.

I pulled out the item. It was a green shoulder bag!

"Omg! I love it! Thanks, Jenny!"

"Welcome, I saw it and thought of you!"

"I'm switching bags right now!"

I dumped out all my stuff from my current bag and placed them in the green one.

*knock knock*

"Come in!" I said.

*door opens*

"Hey, umm Jen?"

"Hm?" She asked turning to him.

"Can I talk to you for a second? Alone?" He asked, with hope in his eyes.

"Yeah, I'll go check on Connor." I said, placing the bag on the bed and leaving the room.

I walked up the steps and went into the living room.

I saw Connor sitting on the couch, hugging a pillow.

"Hey." I said.

"Hey." He waved.

I walked into the living room and plopped down on the couch next to him.

I remembered the tension in the air when I came back to the table earlier, so I decided to asked him about it.

"You okay? You were a little off and I don't think it was because of the video." I said, honestly.

"Well, yeah...I saw you talking to long hair, tall dude" He said, looking at the pillow.

"Oh, Jacob!" I said, remembering his name.

'Confident Jacob, the cab driver. Sounds funny, when you think about it.'

"I see you're on first name basis, already" He said, distastefully.

'Reassure him!' My brain yelled.

"Okay!" I yelled back.

"Yeah, he was a little too confident but I made sure to tell him I'm taken but he wouldn't leave me be. He payed for lunch and I kinda went overboard on purpose, if you can tell. Oh, and he gave me his card! Can you believe he's a cab driver?! I mean him, being a walking AXE model-" I said before covering my mouth.

'What do you think the word reassure means?!" My brain yelled, sarcastically.

"Sorry! It's slipped out!"

"Yeah, it's fine. He's good looking, I get it." Connor said, understandingly.

"Wow, if Josh heard me say that he'd-" I coughed to cut myself off.
