I still couldn't forget about Connor though. That kiss meant something to me, and I could feel something. He was heavy-breathing, so I thought he was feeling it too. Apparently he didn't.

I saw Troye on the lobby this afternoon, which means they probably slept together. I couldn't even imagine them.. cuddling and kissing and all that stuff. It just didn't feel good. It wasn't as good as me and him.

I reached for my phone, and searched through my contacts.

*On the phone*

Kian: "Hey it's Kian, who's this?"

Me: "Wow, we spent the night together and you already forgot about me?"

Kian laughed.

Kian: "Of course I didn't man, so, why are you calling?"

Me: "Well, I have never been to the beach. Would you mind to go with me?"

Kian: "Of course not. Is it OK if I bring a couple friends with me?"

Me: "Of course it's OK!"

*********************************************************************************************************

4pm at the beach

I could see Kian coming with a few friends coming with him. Luckily I knew one of them. Lia came with Kian, and she brought her boyfriend, Jc, with her. Jc was a cool guy.

After hanging out with them for a few hours, I got to know that they're all famous YouTubers. Why was I only meeting famous YouTubers? It was confusing, but well, they were pretty cool. I felt like I was talking to people. Not to famous celebrities. They weren't always talking about their videos, their songs or movies, they had pretty awkward conversations. They were hilarious.

*It's a perfect day for a fight, running up to me in the pouring rain...* my phone was ringing.

Connor was calling me. I didn't know if I should pick up or not. I decided not to. I was hurt. He hurt me. After all he did I thought he was actually in love with me, but he broke my heart in just a few seconds. I didn't even know if I was going to be able to forgive him.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After a long day at the beach, Kian, Lia and Jc invited me to have dinner with them and maybe one or two more friends. I knew that if I was going to my hotel, I'd just start crying in my bed listening to "Video Games" by Lana del Rey (one of my favorite artists). I accepted the invitation. They took me to a place called Nando's, which apparently was very famous.

Me: "When are your friends coming?"

Kian: "They should be here at any minute."

Lia: "Look! There they are."

There were four of them. The first one was a tall guy and a weird but cute smile. You could also notice he works out. The second one was just a small, skinny guy. He looked like he was 16 years old. The third one was not really bad either, he had tattoos and piercings. He was also small butyou could totally tell that he was around 18-19 years old. And the fourth, shit!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What was Connor doing here? And why did he come with Kian's friends? Please just don't tell me he was going to have dinner with us?

When he noticed it was me sitting next to Kian, he just stood there looking at me, freaking hot as always. Uhm, I mean, that huge ass. He's such a traitor.

I knew that if I was going to stay there, I would probably forgive him, and it would all happen again.

Me: "I'm sorry Kian, I forgot something in my hotel room. I'm going to pick it up and then I'll come back."

Kian: "OK, sure. We'll wait for you."

Me: "You don't have to, it'll probably take a while. But I'm sure I'll be here by the time you guys are going to penny board and get some ice cream. I also have to take mine."

Kian: "OK, see you later."

Kian stood up of his chair and gave me a hug (the bro kind of hug). I knew he wasn't gay by the time he called me "man". He was still a great friend though. He's a friend to keep.

Connor was still in front of the door, looking at me. And I think he didn't like the hug Kian gave me.

I walked past him, and went out of the door. I was lying to Kian. I had my penny board in my backpack, and I didn't forget anything in my hotel room. I just wanted to take a little walk around the beach. Just me.

After 15 minutes, I noticed I was not alone.

Connor: "Wait for me!"

I looked back and saw Connor running in my direction.

Me: "It's ok Connor, I know everything about you and Troye. I saw him at the lobby today. You could've just told me earlier. Before we did that mistake."

Connor: "It was not a mistake. I'm not with Troye, Chris. Look, I know I've just met you for two days, and I know that love doesn't always last forever. But I know what I feel about you. And I know you saw firework when we kissed and imagined a romantic song playing while we were making out. I know we've only met for two days. But that doesn't mean, I don't love you."

He started crying.

I kissed him. It just felt like the right thing. Actually, it didn't. I didn't care. All I know is that I was there and he also was. It was perfect.

Connor: "I love you."

Me: "Then what's going on with Troye? I saw that Instagram description yesterday."

Connor: "It's complicated..."
