I quickly got up off Connor and just stared at my feet. "Joey? But how did you even--" I started. "How did I even what? Get here before you? Well I happened to be on the same flight as you but I came straight here because I actually knew where Connor was, he told me. You wouldn't have a clue as to where he went if it weren't for me and those fools." Joey said, pointing at Joe and Caspar. Connor tried saying something but Joey shot him a look. "I don't know why you're here, because Connor's taken with a capital TAKEN so you can just stay away." Joey finished, clapping his hands together.
My cheeks grew a dark shade of red and my eyes filled to the brim with tears. I ran out the door not sure where I was going but I turned the familiar corner I was hiding not to long ago and took Zoe's lift down to the lobby. Tears started flowing down my cheeks as I heard seagulls above my head. I walked towards the beach behind Zoe's house and just sat down on a rock and cried to myself. I guess I was too late. I put my head in my arms and just sat there, hiding my face from the world.
I heard rocks spreading apart as foot steps made their way towards me. Someone sat down next to me and wrapped their arms around me. I didn't know who it was and I didn't really care at that moment. I'm so stupid! I kissed Connor, I KISSED CONNOR! I felt something, that's why I chased him back here not just to apologize. I guess I deserve this. I kept thinking to myself over and over.
I heard more crunching of rocks as another person sat beside me and leaned against me. My curiousity got the best of me and I peaked up to see Caspar holding onto me and Zoe leaning against me. "I'm honestly so sorry, I didn't mean for it to go that way. I had no idea and I'm just really sorry, I'll leave if you want me to." I started as Zoe shushed me. "You're not leaving, you just went through the hassal of getting here. Who cares about Connor and Joey. You're staying and you're staying with me." Zoe spoke.
I looked at her. "I don't want to cause any problems." I whispered. "You won't, you can sleep with me in my bed." She smiled. I slowly nodded, agreeing. "Troye, You're my favorite person ever and don't let anyone tell you you're a horrible person." Caspar spoke as he stood up. "Let's go inside it looks like it's going to rain." Zoe spoke as her and Caspar lifted me up and dragged me inside.
We walked into Zoe's apartment. "Where did everyone go?" I asked. "They went home!" Zoe laughed. We walked into the living room to see Joey and Connor sitting on one couch talking to Joe. Joe got up and looked at Caspar. "Ready to go?" Joe asked. Caspar nodded and turned to hug me, "Skype me promise?" I nodded as he turned to Zoe and hugged her and thanked her for inviting them. Caspar simply nodded at Joey and Connor before turning and leaving with Joe.
"So who wants to watch a movie?" Zoe asked, cheerfully. Silence. "YAY! Ok! You guys don't need to shout, movie time it is!" Zoe yelled as she walked up to the DVD player and started flipping through movies. I sat down on the other couch, oppisite of the couch Joey and Connor we're sitting on. Zoe slipped in a movie and jumped on the couch I was on.
Through the corner of my eye I saw Joey put his arm around Connor. My heart cracked a bit. We started watching The Conjouring. I couldn't help but notice Connor glancing at me every other minute. When it felt like about the 100th time Connor glanced at me, I looked back at him and just stared at him. Our eyes locked for a split second before I turned my attention back to the movie.
In about the middle of the movie Zoe asked us if we we're hungry. We all nodded and Zoe left for the kitchen. "Joey, what was that spice you like in you're chicken?" Zoe asked. "UGH! I can't remember." Joey yelled out. "Then come here and show me!" Zoe yelled back. Joey groaned as we walked into the kitchen.
I looked at Connor, right as he looked at me. "So... I guess I'm sorry." I started. "You're sorry? I'm sorry. I had no idea, if I would of known things would be different." Connor whispered. "I didn't know those mystery lover tweets we're about Joey." I whispered. "Um they weren't--" Connor started as Joey walked in. "What did I miss?" Joey asked, jumping next to Connor. "They weren't suppose to go into the basement." Connor spoke trying to cover up. But I saw a wave a disapointment wash over his face.
Zoe brought out chicken and vegetables and we ate in silence as the movie ended. "Oh my god, it's already 11:00" Zoe laughed as she looked at her phone. "I'm going to go change into my pjs." Zoe said as she stood up to leave. "Feel free to take showers." She spoke as she left into her bedroom. "Okay, well I'm gross. I've been traveling all day so I'm going to take a shower, Troye keep you're lips off of Connor's." Joey warned as he disappeared into the bathroom before anyone could say anything.
I took out my laptop and started going through tumblr. My mom rang with a notification as I saw it was a tweet from Connor again. "Idk idk idk what to do anymore." I read as I looked up at Connor. "IDK?" I asked. "You get notified when I tweet?" Connor smirked. I covered my face as I blushed. "But Troye, I actually had no idea." Connor started. "I deserve this. It teaches me that we can't all get what we want and you just have to learn to live with the feeling.
Just as Connor was nodding, Zoe approached from her room and started shutting off all the lights. I followed Connor into Zoe's room, it was dark and I had no idea there was a matress on the floor so I tripped on the side of it and fell, grabbing the only thing within grasp. Connor. I fell onto my back and Connor fell on top of me, laughing. "What's going on? What's so funny?" A voice called from the doorframe. A big flash of light flashed across the window as rain started pouring down on the roof, We jumped as we heard a light switch flick on and off but never turning on. "The power's out I guess." Zoe whispered already in her bed, snuggled up in blankets.
Connor got up off of me and pulled over his shirt. I couldn't help but stare at him as a flash of light showed me a quick glance of his toned and muscular body. I got up seeing Joey getting ready to lay down. I got into bed with Zoe and snuggled up against her. I fell asleep to the steady fall of rain.
