Chapter 22

His head is resting on my bare shoulder. My breath is finally going back to normal. The hotel room is a mess. Our cloath are spred across the room and the duvet is also laying on the floor. "What time is it?" I ask absent while ruffling his hair. "Dunno." He just says sleepy. I try to stand up to look for my phone to check what time it is. But Connor hold me back and pounds. "My pillow can't leave." He says. "I'm sorry Con but I have plans to go out with the boys." I say slowly and get out of the bed to grab my pans and find my phone only to realize that I have only half an hour to get ready. "Shit!" I say and Connor starts to giggle. I run a hand through my messed up hair. "So are you coming with me?" I ask slowly. He stops giggling "I don't think so Tro. They're not my friends I think that would be reather awkward if I would come." He says slowly. "Pllleeeeaaassseee." I beg while going back to the bed. "Cas will be there as well and they are all big fans I promise." "Tro..." He starts but then I silence him with a kiss. "Please for me." I look into his eyes seeing that he is about to give in. So I just kiss him again and then pull him out of bed in direction of the hotel bathroom. "So you just assume that me not saying anything is a yes?" He asks with a joking expression. I don't answer him but pull him into the shower with me. He giggles while I start the water running. There is something about showering with him that makes me forget the rest of the world. Although we have to hurry I enjoy the showering. After I dryed myself in one of the big hotel towels I realize that all my clothe are in the luggage that is still at my parents room waiting for me to take to Connors room. "Shit" I mumble which makes Connor giggle again. "I have no cloth." I say with a poud. Connors smile freezes. Either way i played it out in my mind the scenario would be awkward. I could burro a Shirt from Connor but that would give us to easyly away and seeing how Cas had already his surspicions it wasn't a very good idea. And going over to my parents room freshly showered would end in a talk over an hour in save sex. If i went in my interview cloth... No I would never do that.Connor noticing my worried expression kissing me quickly in the lips and then pulls a sweatshirt over. "Which room are your parents staying at?" He asks me. And I smile widly. Telling him the room number and then waiting for him to come back with my stuff. Mean while I style my hair with Connors products and lie back down on the hotel bed, smiling to myself. "Jup Troye that really happened." I try to tell myself but it's just to surreal to believe it. I nervously tap my feet in a rhythm that is stuck in my head while hoping that my parents don't ask him to many questions. Five minutes later he is back with my luggage, smiling at me. I jump out of the bed, kiss him on the cheek and pull the first sweater that I find in my luggage out of it and put it on. "Ready?" I ask and he nod after checking this perfect quiff for the last time. We step out if the room and in direction to the elevators. "How bad did they cross-examined you?" I ask slowly while we waited for the elevator. "Tro your parents are actually pretty awesome. Wait til you meet my parents that you know what embarrassing parents are." He just says and smiles at me. He squeezes my hand for the last time then letting go of it and we step into the elevator.

We are the last to arrive in the lobby and Cas smiles at us the second we step out of the elevator. "Troye, tryoe, Troye" he says and hugs me then whispers into my ear: "are you sure you're not having sex with him?" My cheeks are getting hot and I'm sure that he could feel it still holding me in his arms. "If you want to keep it a secret then start acting like there is nothing going on." He says seriously and looks deeply into my eyes after letting me go. Meanwhile Connor had introduced himself to everybody else and we where of in the direction of a restaurant near the hotel.
It's a restaurant on a rooftop of a tall building, so the view over Johannesburg is pretty great. Connor not leaving my side and sitting right next to me. Bless on his otherside. He and Bless are talking about Connors thirst project while I catch up with Caspar about all the Brits. Even though there are pretty much all daily vlogging there are so many things that are capped secret from the internet but which are worth telling. While still talking to Caspar I slowly shift my hands so that is resting on Connors knee. He turns towards me and smiles at me. I giggle because of Casper's expression. Caspar leans over the table closer to me. The others are all wrapped up in conversations but still he leans closer and says quietly "I'm happy for you Troye. For him as well." Cas says while mustering Connor. Everybody that really knows him clearly sees the change he has gone through the last year. Casper's look last long on him. He looks worried which isn't very usual for him. But clearly he also notices the deep bags under his eyes and that he had lost weight. "I hope everything will turn out fine." Caspar says still looking worried. I smile at him over the table. Caspar being the first real internet friend i had seaming concerned about me and Connor made me like Caspar even more. Quickly I stood up and ran around the table to hug him. "Thanks." I mumble into his chest. "Traspar is real." Tom screams from behind. "Oh if they knew." Caspar mumbles back.
