Connor's pov
7:00 read the clock.
30 more minuets until Jude comes over, and I was dreading it.
What if he actually thinks I'm gay, and that I like him? What if he actually likes me? Even worst, what if he finds out I'm straight?! He'll tell my dads, and surly they will kill me!
'Whatever' I thought. 'That won't happen' I whispered trying to push my thoughts away.
Before you knew it I was fully dressed in a green plaid shirt and some nice jeans.
7:30 read the clock. Oh god no, I do not want to do this.
"CONNOR, JUDE'S HERE!" Dad yelled up the stairs
"COMING" I yelled back, then coming down the stairs.
"Hey Jude" I said faking a smile, and handing him a single rose. Daria suggested a whole bouquet but I wasn't going for that.
----------------5 minuets ago--------------
Connor: hey um my dads are trying to set me up with this guy, Jude? He's our neighbor or something.
Daria: what?!
C: yeah, sorry. I don't know what to do.
D: just pretend to be sick. Then keep making up excuses.
C: I can't I already told them I was up for it.
D: oh, umm, well then just play along.
C: play along how?
D: buy him flowers. A whole bouquet. Roses, big beautiful red roses.
C: .... Why would I do that?!
D: to make your dads think you actually like him, duh!
C: oh and to make him think I actually like him too??
D: explain to him that you don't. Tell him you're straight."
C: but what if he judges me? What if he tells my dads?!
D: you just have to take a chance.
C: fine, but I'm only giving him one rose.
D: why? She whined
C: uh I gotta go babe he's here.
D: okay, love you bye.
-------back to current time----
"Here you go" I said hand him a rose, noticing his blue nail polish, looks nice on him, but better on Daria.
We had dinner which was really boring, afterwards my dads sent us up to my room to 'chat' also known as make out. Too bad that won't be happening.
"So.." Jude said
"So.." I replied copying his tone.
"I take it you don't really me" he said
"It's not that it's just that... Never kind." I said
"It's just that what?" He asked concerned
I wasn't going to tell him, but I looked into his eyes and the words just started pouring out. "I'm straight."
"Really? Why'd your dads try to set us up then?" He asked.
He must be really dumb.
"They don't know, and they can't know, so don't tell them!" I staid sternly.
"Wouldn't dream of it." Jude replied
"so you gotta girlfriend?" He asked.
"Yeah, her name's Daria." I replied
"Nice." He said.
"How bout you, got a boyfriend?" I asked
"If I did, do you think I'd be here?" He asked chuckling
"Oh yeah, right" I laughed along.
----------------------------------------------
"Ha! I won again!" I laughed.
"No fair!" He pouted "you must've cheated." He continued.
"Aw babe don't be a sore loser" I teased
"I am not!" He said
"Are too!" I replied
Then he jumped on my back
"Get off!" I laughed.
"You're gonna break my back" I kid. He really isn't heavy at all.
"Take that back!" He replied
"Nope" I said popping the 'P'
He tried to pin me down, but I'm clearly stronger, and I ended up pinning him down, we just stared at each other laughing.
Jude's pov
He pinned me down, with his strong, muscular arms. We were giggling at each other until his phone rang and he got off me.
"Who's that?" I asked annoyed, but said it in a curious voice. He doesn't need to know I like him.
"It's Daria" I mentally rolled my eyes
"Oh, tell her hi for me" I faked smiled
"Oh, I just told her were still hanging out." He replied
I smiled.
"Hey, Jude I have a question for you" I nodded.
"Uh, could you like..." He trailed on
"Like what?" I asked
"Be my beard..?" He asked
"What?" I asked surprised
"Well, a beard is a person who-"
"I know what a beard is" I cut him off. "But why are you asking me? And why do you even want one?" I asked a little annoyed
"Because you're the closest, cutest guy to me, and I don't want one, I need one, because of my dads, remember? And I'm asking you, so please say yes. He begged.
"Fine" I said.
"Ah, yes! Thank you, I could just kiss you!" He said.
I only said yes because he called me cute.
I just chuckled.
My moms had called and told me it was time to go home.
"Walk me downstairs, boyfriend" I said putting emphases on 'boyfriend' for I knew his dads were standing at the door. I had heard their foot steps a few seconds ago. His dads squealed, a little too loudly, that's how Connor found out they were waiting on him at the door (A/N: smirk emoji).
"Sure babe" he replied.
When we got to the door I wrapped my arms around Connor's neck, and he wrapped his around my waist. His dads thought they were slick, we can literally see them peeking around the corner.
"So I had a good time today" I said. That's wasn't really a lie.
"So did I" he replied smiling, I can't really tell if he was Faking It or not
Then I kissed him. He kissed back, but of course only because his dads were there.
"Bye Connor" I said
Connor's pov
"Bye Jude" I replied then he left and I shut the door.
I closed the door and faked a big smile, knowing my dads were still watching.
I ran half way up the stairs and yelled "you can come out now dads!" Then went the rest the way up to my room.
