"O-M-GOSH YOU GUYS!" Conner practically screamed into the missionary's home. Elder Church and Thomas stumbled into the living room, they collapse onto the single couch against the wall closest to them.

"What is it...?" Elder Thomas asked while trying to push off Elder Church, since he had fallen onto the little guy. Elder Church let out a muffled laugh and got up. Conner excitedly started to dash around and explain.

"So I went on a dating website (OH), shh! Anyway, he and I (He???), well... We hadn't really talked, but he's cute. More cute than I can ever think! WE ARE GOING ON A DATE TONIGHT!!!" Conner bounced and stopped. He then stopped, hesitating before looking at his friends.

"Should I go though?" Conner's mind buzzed with possibilities. He suddenly hesitated, it was like he was hit with a wall.

"What's wrong...?" Elder Church asked, now both Elder Thomas and Elder Church were sitting next to each other on the couch. Conner's face flushed and he looked at them.

"What if he doesn't like me??? OH! What if he was just set up and it doesn't go how I want it to! It was just too unexpected and I don't know what to do! He probably isn't how I imagined him!!" Conner spat nervously and got up again. He started to pace around and started to talk again. "He could talk too fast! He could ask me questions before I allow him to! Or he could eat a Oreo but eat the cookie before the cream!"

Suddenly, Conner broke into song, "But what scares me the most, what scares me the most..." Elder Church was going to talk, but Connor continued. "What if when he sees me, what if he doesn't like it???? What if he runs the other way and I can't hide from it???? What happens then if when he knows me, he's only disappointed!!"

"Wait, wait, wait!" Elder Church interrupted, he held out a hand to stop Conner. Connor looked at the two guys. "Do you even know this guy? What dating site did you find him on???"

"Oh... Uhm... His name is Kevin, Kevin Price. He- I mean we- met on... DON'T laugh at me, okay?" Connor corrected himself, but the two guys nodded to his question. "We met from... Tinder..."

The two other guys stayed silent and watched as Connor got flustered. He started to pace in circles in the room. He blushed and started to gush to them how Kevin looks. Connor had his hands to his face, like a Yandere or lovestruck schoolgirl. Church and Thomas looked at each other and mentally agreed that Connor was absolutely smitten.

"Hang on, Elder McKinley," Church said, "can you calm down? Maybe, turn it off? Or just hold that-" the twitterpated Connor made the guy stop. Church looked at Connor, confused. Connor continued to pace around and think of the endless possibilities. Church and Thomas sighed and leaned against each other.

"Elder Thomas, Elder Church... I just don't know what to do...! What if he doesn't accept me? I mean, what if it was a friend who set him up?" Connor turned to them, Elder Thomas jumped up and looked at Connor.

"Elder McKinley, we didn't even know you're gay! You just barged into here and started to talk! I'm not saying it's bad to be gay-" Thomas started, only to be interrupted by Church.

"Okay, we are just confused. Anyway, why are you so nervous? It's just one date!" Church asked while putting an arm around Thomas. Connor looked at Church, his gaze intense. He shoved Thomas aside and started to shake Church quickly.

"HE MIGHT BE A CRIMINAL OR MAYBE EVEN A RAPIST!!! YOU CANT JUST GO ON A DATE AND EXPECT THE BEST!!!" Connor yelled directly at Church, the guy was left in a daze. He was swaying a little after Connor let go of him. Thomas was keeping the guy steady, having him sit on the couch. Connor started to spew all the terrible possibilities.

"Wait! Elder McKinley, don't you think you're being a little, I mean maybe just a tad-" Elder Thomas started.

"I'm not being defensive! I'm simply being cautious," Conner intruded, he sighed before plopping down onto the couch (besides Church and Thomas). Conner continued to sing, "he could be less than kind! Or even worse, he could be very nice, have lovely eyes- up close- and make me laugh. Come out of hiding..."

Church and Thomas shared a look before Connor continued.

"What do I do with that? Oh gosh, what if when he sees me- I like him and he knows it? What if he opens a door and I can't close it? What happens then...? If when he holds me, my heart is set in motion," Connor got up and did a little twirl before leaning against the wall on the opposite side. He had a hand on his forehead, in a dramatic way- he continued singing, "Im not prepared for that... I'm scared of breaking open. But still, I can't help from hoping, to find someone to talk to who likes the way I am. Someone who when he sees me wants to again..."

The other two guys gave Connor a sympathetic look. Connor had covered his face when he sang that he was scared of breaking open. He let himself fall to the floor, his back was still against the wall. The two guys got up from the couch and went up to the guy, they bent down. Connor was on the border of crying, Thomas patted the guy's shoulder.

"So are you still going on the date?" Connor nodded to Church's question.

"Maybe you should get dressed? You said it was tonight." Thomas added softly, he smiled a little. Connor's face flushed once more, he groaned and rubbed his face before getting up. He turned towards his friends.

"What... What do you think I should wear?" The other two guys smiled at Connor and rushed the guy away.

"Let's get you ready!" The two boys said in unison, Connor laughed before shutting the door to his compartment.
