Connor's POV:

"Ricky slide to the left a little. Okay good!" I say from behind the camera.

"Connor, I don't know if I can do this. I feel like I'm going to be sick," Ricky says to me and won't look me in the eyes. I squat in front of him and hold his hands in mine.

"I'll be there for you and you'll be there for me. I'm only willing to do this if you are. If you don't want to... We can make it another day."

"But I want to do it. I'm just super nervous. My mind is going crazy and it keeps assuming the fans are going to be mad." He says with tears starting to form in his eyes.

"Ricky don't cry. It's okay, the fans will support us no matter what, look at all the love Tyler and Troye get. We will be okay, we have so much support it's going to be unreal."

"Okay. Let's do this." Ricky says and sits up straight, wipes his eyes, and then looks towards the camera. I click the record button and sit down beside him. I grab his hand before starting to speak.

"Hey you guys it's Connor and I'm here with..."

"Ricky!" He says with a huge grin on his face.

"We have some news for you and as you can tell by the title, this is a coming out video. This is not another one of my April fools videos, this is real. I'm gay. By the time I upload this video all of my family knows and my closest friends."

"Mine, too. We thought to make it easier for ourselves we would just film one coming out video. I'm gay, too. And it feels so good to be able to tell you guys. Because I hate keeping secrets from y'all." Ricky says and then looks at me.

"Since we are coming clean, we also have to tell you something else. We are trusting y'all that we will get no hate for this and that our privacy will be obtained. Okay? Are you ready?""Ronnor is real." Ricky says with a huge smile and quickly kisses me on the lips.

"We're going to go now and let y'all realize what just happened!"

"Bye!" We say together. I click the record button to make the camera stop and I return to my spot beside him.

"Now Mr.Dillon what shall we do now?" I ask him.

"We could go out or... Just cuddle in bed and watch les miserables?" He asks with a small shy smile.

"Deal, am I allowed to sing a long?"

"Heck yes! I call being Marius!" He quickly says.

"No that means I'm the girl."

"You're a pretty girl," he says before kissing me again and goes to get the movie.

Ricky's POV:

While I'm downstairs I see dumb and dumber passed out on the couch. They are not the smartest fish in the sea. I see Kian's phone go off and can't help but be curious.

It's a text:

Hey! This is Kourtney, we should totally see each other again. But in the meantime I thought you might enjoy this pic!:)

IT'S THE PICTURE OF CONNOR AND ME! I quickly unlock his phone and reply to her.

Seen that before. We are used to it, just delete it because we have tons of those pictures. But we should totally see each other again though.

I hit the send button and forward the picture to my phone. I then delete the texts between him and her, and mine and his. After grabbing the movie I check his phone one more time before heading up stairs to my boyfriend. It kinda sounds weird but I like it, a lot.

Oh okay I will delete it. I'm sorry.

You should be! I just delete it and head upstairs to share the great news with Connor. But that was a huge crisis avoided! I'm glad I was curious.
