Smile For Me || Connor Ball

Chapter 7; 'im fine'

James' p.o.v.

********************************

It's only a week, but it's a week I'll be worried. James shut up she's got Connor.

"James are you okay?" Tash. I needed Tash to take my mind off things. Off my best friend, Lucy.

"Tash, since Luce is moving in with Con for the week how about you move in with me?" I asked and I could tell by the smile on her face what she was going to say.

"Yes, oh my god James!"

"Chill out it's not like I'm asking you to move in permanently" I winked and nudged her "not yet anyway" the smile on her face grew so it was literally from ear to ear. I'd been with Tash for nearly a year, trust me I wanted to live with her, but I needed to make sure it was okay with Lucy. I guess this week can we a trial week.

Lucy's p.o.v

**********************************

Connors house was so nice, it looked big from the outside but on the inside it was just like mine and James', I could tell we were going to have fun this week.

"Where shall I put my stuff?" well I didn't know if we were sharing a room or not.

"In my room?" don't ask questions for goodness sake Connor.

"Okie dokie" I replied with a smile before following Con up to his room.

His room was so nice, guitars hanging from the walls and a double bed in the middle of the floor, with Rex's cage just out side his door.

I dropped my bags and ran and plonked my self on the bed.

"Excuse me that is my bed"

"Actually for this week it is our bed"

"Damn you Lucy"

For some reason my nerves had gone, I didn't care what I looked like in front of Connor anymore, if he still wanted to be with me after finding out all this about me then what have I got to worry about?

"What you thinking about?" Is it really that obvious that I was thinking

"Nothing really" well I wasn't going to tell him what I said to James was I

"Okay then, what do you want to do?" I smirked evilly and pushed him on to the bed to try and experiment and find out if he was also ticklish, well I may have lied when I said that I was over getting revenge. I climbed on top of him planting a little kiss on his lips and moved my hands down to his waist. I was just about to start and tickle him when he must have known what I was up to, he grabbed my wrists and tossed me over so that he was now on top of me.

"Do you really think I'm that stupid, Davey Jones is not stupid" the Davey accent, my other weakness.

"Maybe I did, maybe I didn't"

"Well you're a fool"

"fine then if I'm a fool then you clearly don't like me and this is over" I teased knowing he'd cave and I was right.

I was starting to get hungry and so was Connor so we ordered a Chinese take away and decided to watch films all night. When the food arrived I paid and dished it out on the plates while Con picked a film, Harry potter, wow shocker.

We finished eating about half way in to the film and I was sat on the opposite side of the sofa to Connor, and once he actually realised because he was too engrossed in the film and his food, he give me a very confused look and pulled me closer to him. I rested my head and one of my hands on his chest, I wasn't even interested in the TV anymore, to be honest id much rather spend my time looking at Connor.

"Lucy you're staring" Con covered his face in a cushion.

"Sorry"

I got up and went in to the toilet.

Wow I look great. Not. Ugh, I hate the fact that I'm constantly putting my self down, It doesn't help anything. I sat on the toilet, with the lid down, I just sat and I felt my eyes fill up, why was I crying? Everything was going great, I had the best boyfriend and the best best friend ever, and I even had Tash, who id gotten so close with lately, so why was I like this?

"Luce are you ok? You've been in there a while" shit

"Yeah I'm fine, I.. I'm coming" I sighed, wiped my eyes and went out

"Are you not going to flush the toilet" he raised his eyebrows at me

"Oh I.. I um didn't use the toilet" which I didn't

"Well what were you doing Luce? Is everything okay?" that's the thing everything was fine I don't know what was up.

"Yeah I was just freshening up"

"I'm not an idiot, but I'm also not going to be on your back, come here" I ran in to Connors arms an started sobbing on his chest, hoping he wouldn't realise, well until his shirt was wet.

"Lucy don't cry, please, I don't know what's wrong you were fine"

"I'm so sorry, I honestly don't know my self what's wrong" I tried to laugh it off and Con wiped my tears with his thumb

"Con can we go to bed please?"

"Course we can" he smiled at me and took my hand as we went upstairs.

I grabbed my pyjamas out of my bag and went in the bathroom to get changed, brush my teeth and tied my hair up. I walked back in to our room and got into bed to soon be joined by Connor, who was just in his boxers, I giggled and he wrapped his arms around me. I turned so that I was facing him and I leant up to kiss him, we just laid for ages, just small talking, kissing now and then until I really got tired. I snuggled my head into the crook of his neck and rested one hand on his chest while the other was draped over his body, Con's arms both wrapped round my waist with his head resting directly above mine, and our legs intwined

"Night Con" I whispered in to his neck and leant up to kiss him again.

"Goodnight Luce, I love you" he kissed me back and I put my head back in to his neck and closed my eyes.

Connors p.o.v

**********************

I don't know why Lucy was crying but I didn't want to make it worse. I could tell she was tired though so we went up to bed. Even with no make up, and her hair in an extremely messy bun, she still looked perfect and I know she didn't see it but I did, in every way possible, Lucy was perfect.

We laid in bed and talked for what seemed like ages, kissing a little sometimes until she was really tired. She buried her head in to my neck which was so cute and rested one hand on my chest with the other over my body, I recon we looked cute, and I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her close in to me. All the time I've known Lucy and I never thought I'd have the balls to ask her out and I'm so glad I did.

"Night Con" she whispered In to my neck and kissed me

"Goodnight Luce, I love you" I kissed her back and rested my head on hers and fell to sleep.
