Incase you don't know, I tried to update the last two days, but ended up making a two page thing that I just added to the end of the last chapter, so go check that out of you haven't already.

Tyler POV

"So, are you guys and Troye coming to our room later tonight?" Sawyer asked Connor and I outside the venue. I just wrapped up a meet-up, and I ran into Connor, Joey, and Sawyer in a shaded area abandoned by the crowds.

"What do you mean?" I asked, puzzled. He was quick to explain that he invited several YouTubers to come by their hotel room later tonight to hang out. "Yeah, I'll come. Definitely. Does Troye know?"

"Um..." Joey trailed off, scrolling through his phone at what must've been a group text that I missed, since my phone was and still is on silent due to being pre-occupied with meeting fans. "He didn't respond to my message about it yet, but I can text him again if you want."

"Yeah, that's probably a good idea," I said, agreeing with him. I didn't bother explaining that Troye may not answer anytime soon, since he was hanging out with some of the Brits right now. Joey was so perky when he mentioned the offer that it was impossible to object. Then again, he's always bubbly, so I don't really know why I don't remind myself that whenever he says something. He's just took infectious, I guess.

"What about you, Connor?"

"Yeah, I'm comin'." He offered an eager smile for the boys, but I could tell that something else was on his mind right now. His eyes weren't focused on anything, which was the dead giveaway for me. I don't think the other boys noticed, though, since they were quick to move on to another conversation that I paid no mind too.

I stepped a little closer to Connor, and whispered out of earshot from the other boys,"Everything alright?"

He sighed, offering a crooked smile, and drawled out,"Yeah. It's just... I'm worried about Hannah and Grace."

I cocked my head to the side. "What do you mean?" I'm sure he's referring to the kiss, and sudden exit from last night, but I think we would've known if anything negative happened between them by now.

"Well, you saw what happened,"he began,"And I just hope that they sort out whatever was going on, because you know there had to have been something going on between them, from the way they looked at each other after the kiss."

I didn't think about that. I just figured that Hannah might've been a little pissed that Grace kissed her in front of ton of people without knowing whether or not there was a camera from a fan in the crowd. I didn't think that there was more to read into it than that, but then again, I guess that explains why Troye slapped me after I cheered them on. Suddenly, I feel like I should apologize about that, but obviously there wasn't anyone to say sorry to right now, so I directed my attention back to answering Connor. "I'm sure they're fine. After all, they're pretty much best friends. I don't think anything could change that."

He pondered that for a moment. He parted his lips to say something, then glanced over at me, and closed his mouth as if thinking better of it. "Yeah, I'm sure you're right," he says instead. Then, he adds,"Just because two friends kiss doesn't mean that anything has to change, unless they wanted it to."

I pursed my lips at his statement. What he said was completely true, but it was clearly directed at Troye and I. I was glad Troye wasn't here to witness this, because I would just be utterly embarrassed by it, even though I know Connor didn't mean anything bad by it. Hell, I think he was almost trying to say that if our relationship did change, it would be for the better, not the worse. But I didn't even know to delve into that topic with Connor, whom I simply assumed was impassive about Troye and I's relationship, so I said nothing.
