(Connor's POV)

"Y/n L/n, amazing to see your fucking face!"
"Connor Murphy! I missed you"
I smiled, the person standing in front of me was the main reason for it. Then a frown came over my face as my sister, Zoe, wrapped her arms around Y/n's waist. A small giggle from Y/n followed and she swatted her away. "Zoe! Stop that, it tickles!"

(Flashback to about a week ago)

Ever since Zoe came out to me and saw this as an opportunity to open up to me about her crush on Y/n. I was really happy when she felt the confidence to come out to me but felt less elated about the fact that she liked the same girl that I did.

(Back to the present)

I clenched my jaw tightly, Zoe smiled and laughed along with Y/n. We made eye contact. I raised my eyebrows to greet Zoe and she did the same. Zoe then grabbed Y/n by the shoulders to keep her in place, she pulled a flyer out of her backpack and presented it to Y/n and I. It read in bold letters: Party at Kurt's house this Friday!! If you got this invite then you can come and bring maximum 3 "plus ones". Be here or be queer. Bitches!!. On the bottom of the invitation there was an address that belonged to Kurt. I sighed and knew that Zoe wanted both me and Y/n to go. I nodded which made the e/c eyed girl jump in delight and hug me and Zoe. I sighed in defeat and accepted to closeness between me and sibling.

(Timeskip to the Murphy household)

"Connor, can I talk to you?" I groaned and nodded, which made my sister smile and rush to my side. "I think I'm gonna make a move at the party, Connor" "Like a shitty dance move or something?" I knew that this wasn't what she meant. She meant that she was gonna make a move on her. "No you weirdo. I mean on Y/n! I think I'm gonna finally make a move and ask her out. I just don't know how to go about it you know?" "Yeah, I uh, I know what you mean..." 'Because I wanted to do the same fucking thing' I sighed and wrapped my arm around Zoe and reassured her that she had "my full support"

I started thinking about what I could do. 'I have an okay singing voice' I smirked to myself, knowing that this would be my strategy.

(Timeskip to the party at Kurt's house)

(Zoe's POV)

Loud. Annoying. Shitty. Those three words described the music and people at this fucking party. I inhaled and sighed not at all excited for this shit fest. 'This is for Connor. This is for Connor"

I wasn't actually gay. Well at least not for Y/n L/n but for Alana Beck, who knew about my plan to get Connor and Y/n together. She's been allowing me, for the past few days, to "hit on Y/n" so that my plan to succeed and I shivered at the fact that there was a risk of Connor beating the ever loving shit out of me. I looked at the e/c girl and took her hand to intertwine it with mine, I took a second to look at my sibling and he didn't look pleased. '

This is how I die. I'm going to die tonight. I had so many things I could've done. I didn't even get the chance to get laid!!'. I took in a deep breath and remembered that this would have a great outcome in the end. 'He was meant to be her's and she was meant to be his, there's no doubt about it, suck it up-

(Connor's POV)

'-and don't be a pussy'

I stuck one hand in my pocket and held the other out for Y/n who was already holding hands with Zoe. The hand that belonged to Y/n accepted mine, to my great surprise and delight, while it also remained intertwined with Zoe's. The hand I put in my pocket clenched the paper tightly that had a speech that I formulated to attempt at making Y/n my partner in crime, as follows; Y/n, your love has always been like the infinite horizon, eluding my grasp but tonight I'm taking a step forward and asking you a question that can change both of our lives. For better or for worse, Y/n L/n, would you make me the happiest person on earth tonight and be my Girlfriend?.

I knew that it was a theatrical way to start a courtship but if there's one fucking thing I know about dating is this: Go big or go home. I'm not exactly ready or even have it in mind to to let Zoe date the greatest gift to come into my life like every other fucking thing before that.

I knew that getting everyone to shut the fuck up was going to be one of hardest goddamn things I'd ever do. So I did what any logic person would. Annoy the DJ until they gave in and put the song I wanted, what I didn't expect was to succeed after the first try and get a microphone shoved into my hand, followed by a thumbs up and wink. The DJ then pulled another mic out, "alright everyone! We're having a grand ol' time tonight, aren't we?", the people at the party cheered in agreement, "well, let's settle down and pass the mic over to Connor Murphy! He's got a very special song for a very special someone" they conclude this sentence with a suggestive eyebrow wiggle.

So many eyes were focused on me, I felt like running away and just forgetting about the whole thing but Y/n was watching me intently, waiting for who the "special someone" could be most likely. I took in a breath of polluted air, which reeked of alcohol and weed, then exhaled.

The music started playing loudly, the first verse was approaching and my insides were churning.

(I'm just going to input the first verse)

"Yeah, one, two, princes kneel before you. That's what I said now.
Princes, Princes who adore you,
Just go ahead now.
One has diamonds in his pockets, that's some bread now.
This one, said he wants to buy you rockets,
Ain't in his head now.

(End verse)

The song fades out, I could hear people clapping, I pull out my prewritten speech and gave it a once over. I never quite understood what the whole circus intestines thing meant before but I finally got the somersaulting stomach which felt overwhelming. I raised the microphone the my lips and spoke into it. "That song is dedicated to the most important person that has left a permanent mark in my life."

Y/n looked at me curiously, Zoe stood next to her smirking. Smirking. 'That sneaky little smart ass'

"For as long as I could remember, your love has always been like the infinite horizon it's always eluded my grasp, like most nights. Tonight is different from every other night though. Tonight, I want our relationship to be taken a step further for better or for worse. I, Connor Murphy, ask you, Y/n L/n, to be mine and I yours.

Y/n looked absolutely ecstatic. She ran as fast as she could and leapt into my arms. I smiled and held her tightly, she smiled and brought her lips to mine. I knew that fairytales weren't real and shit but this was better than any old story I was told as kid.

My happy ending was only the start of a new beginning and nothing could change that.
