Chapter 19

Connor's POV


I was driving Lucy back to her dorm. We were going to hang there for a little bit. My phone rang.


"Who is that?" I yelled over the blasting music.


"Hannah?" Lucy yelled back.


"Oh, answer that!"


"Kay," she said turning down the music. "Hullo? This is Connor Franta's phone...... No, he's just driving...... This is Lucy...... What has he said about me...... Oh good....... Okay I'll ask," she covered the phone's speaker with her hand. "Would you be interested in doing a photo shoot tomorrow?"


"Yeah, where?"


"Where would said photo shoot take place?" she laughed. "Santa Monica Pier," she said flatly.


"Okay."


"He'll do it...... Nice talking to you, too... Bye!"


(A/N: He actually did have this photo shoot with Hannah a while ago, but we just gonna say it's happening now...)


"Want to go with me?"


"To the photo shoot... on the beach... where the shark was?"


"No one said you had to go in the water."


She looked terrified.


"'Please?" I pouted.


"Ugh. Fine.You know I can't resist the puppy dog face."


"Tanks!" I said in a high pitched voice. I parked the car, and we walked to Lucy's room. I put my arm around her and pulled her close. She took the key out of her purse.  The key turned and the door opened. The room was dark, as expected... but the people in the dark was unexpected.


Lucy's POV


I opened the door. I looked at Connor. His jaw dropped. At first I didn't understand why, but I then looked into the room. On Liz's bed was Ricky and Liz cuddled up, watching TV. I squealed with excitement.


"Hey, you two," they jumped at my remark. Ricky quickly took his arm off of Liz's shoulder. Yes! They were together without me forcing them to be. This was going perfectly. Liz got up and Connor sat down.


"Con, I'm going to put the leftovers in our fridge."


"Kay."


Liz came walking over to me. She took a piece of paper and pen from the drawer. She started to write something down. I watched as she shoved the paper towards me.


'what did you guys see exactly?'


'why what happened?'


':?'


'spill'


'okay, he came over to help pick the lock to the thermostat because you left the room freezing today, and he came and fixed it and then we started to talk and he kissed me. and we were watching a movie until you interrupted us.'


When I read that they kissed I screamed. The boys turned to look at me, and Liz gave me a very nasty glare. I panicked.


"Um... I saw a spider," I said hitting my hand on the table, "G-got it," I smiled. They looked away.


'YOU KISSED!'


'HE KISSED ME!'


'OMFG this is so perfect we can double date'


She glared at me as if to say we aren't a couple.


'okay if you kissed and are snuggling you're a couple'


'that does not make us a couple'


I raised my eyebrows.


"So, Ricky, are you and Liz dating now?" I laughed.


"Um... I don't know. Are we?" he said to Liz.


"Are we?" she squeaked.


"Well?" Connor interrupted.


"I'm going to take this awkward silence as a yes," I grinned.


Ricky smiled. So did Liz. I walked over to my dresser and pulled out running shorts and a tank top, I've always hated wearing dresses for an extended amount of time. I walked over to the bathroom to change. When I got back I saw the Connor had taken it upon himself to climb up to my bunk and cozy himself. I climbed up the ladder and jumped on top of him. He posed his seductive face, (A/N: I hope you know what I'm talking about...) and I laughed.


"Doesn't this drive you crazy?" I said undoing his tie.


"Yeah, a lot actually, but I wanted to look nice," he grinned.


I got the tie off and threw it towards the end of my bed. I shivered. The thermostat must have reset itself again and made the room freezing. God that thing. I pulled the covers over me. Connor wrapped his arms around my body to spread his warmth. I smiled. I shut my eyes, and I slowly drifted to sleep.



I woke up the next morning earlier than expected. Connor was still fast asleep. I heard Ricky and Liz whispering.


"Sorry, I didn't mean to spend the night."


"No, really it's fine. What are you doing later today?"


"Nothing."


"Do you maybe want to hang out again?"


"Sure, just lemme go home and shower."


"Okay, I'll walk you to your car."


They left the dorm. I smiled. My best friends dating. Yussssssss!I I snuggled myself back into Connor. I caused Connor to wake up.


"Wha-" I covered Connor's mouth, hoping Liz and Ricky didn't hear us.


"Shhh..." I whispered. He giggled. I tried to hear what they were saying, but the door shut before I could make anything out. I turned to Connor and grinned.


"I think we have a couple over there."


"Yes!" he laughed.


I squealed.


"Hey, what time is it?" Connor said rubbing his eyes.


"I don't know, when do you have to go to the photo shoot?"


He shrugged his shoulders, and then hopped off the top bunk.


"I'll text her and see... so I know you like picking out my outfits-"


'"Ooh! Can I!"


"Yes."


"Yay!" I jumped off the bunk and walked over to him.


"She said around one," Connor said showing the text.


"Alright we have time. Let's go back to your place and I can pick out your outfit," I replied. I walked over to my dresser and pulled out denim shorts and a black muscle tee from Forever 21. I slipped on flip flops, and we headed out the door.



We got back to the O2L house. To my surprise everyone was awake. I said a quick hello, and then I ran up the steps into Connor's room. He followed behind. I walked over to Connor's enormous closet.


"Is there anything in particular you would like to wear?" I said feeling through the shirts.


"Yeah," he said walking over to a shopping bag on the floor. He pick up a hat that was in the bag and handed it to me. "This... and khakis," he pulled out khakis and laid them on his bed.


"Alright..." I looked through his closet. I spotted a denim button up shirt. I took it off the hanger and placed it with the khakis. I pulled out the drawer where Connor keep all of his t-shirts. I grabbed a white Hanes and threw it on to his bed. I walked back into his closet and grabbed his black vans.


"Done!" I smiled. Connor picked up all of the clothes and walked into his bathroom. I sat down on his bed. I took out my phone and checked Twitter. I had a lot of new notifications. Oh my god. So many people followed me. I guess everyone saw the video Connor posted yesterday. I heard the bathroom door open. I looked up to see Connor showing his renown inappropriate face. I laughed.


"Damn, who is that foxy man?" I said sarcastically, "Oh, it's my boyfriend."


He smiled. He messed up my hair, and I laughed.


"Come on, we're going to take the train down. We eat breakfast and then leave."


I followed him down the stairs to the kitchen.


"I LOVE FROOT LOOPS!" I said as I opened the cabinet. I grabbed the froot loops and brought them to the kitchen bar. Connor brought over milk, two bowls, and two spoons.


"Yuss!" I said. Connor laughed at me. We finished breakfast pretty quickly, and then we headed off to the train station.
