Chapter 27

*Troye's POV*

"Not dating, aye?" The normally bubbly voice was absent as Tyler spoke those words. I slowly disconnected mine and Connor's lips as I looked up at Tyler.

His eyes read hatred, his body language read anger, and the tapping of his foot read annoyance. I feel bad, yes, but Connor is My boyfriend, so I shouldn't feel bad. Right?

"Look- Tyler I-" I started to say, before he rudely interrupted me.

"Save it, Troye" he huffed, walking back over to the game. "and that thing I told you earlier? Yeah, forget that I ever told you anything." He was disappointed; I could hear it in his voice.

Forget? I honestly could never forget what Tyler told me, no matter how hard I tried.

"Tyler, I promise we were going to tell you at some point" Connor started, walking towards Tyler. "But we didn't know when. Hell, my family found out the same way you did." Connor chuckled, placing a hand on Tyler shoulder.

Tyler looked up at Connor and gave him a weak smile. "I get it, Con. No worries" He smiled, twisting his head to give Connor a slight kiss atop his hand. As he pulled away from Connors hand, he looked at me with a slight smirk. "Troye is a great person, Con Con"

I rolled my eyes, refraining myself from jumping across the room and strangling him.

"I say we clean this game up and watch a movie instead" Connor suggested, walking away from Tyler to pick up the cards. "What movie would you guys want to watch?"

After everything was cleaned up, Tyler, Connor, and I managed to smush together on Tylers queen-sized bed. Connor, of course, was in the middle, snuggled up to my side. I couldn't see Tyler's face, but I knew he was smirking, trying to make me jealous by putting his arm behind Connor.

Tyler was getting on my nerves.

About halfway through the movie, I heard a quiet snore escape from Connor's lips, causing Tyler and I to look up at each other.

"Cute" Tyler whispered, moving his hand from behind Connor to reach the remote. As soon as the remote was in his hands, he paused the movie and turned to face me. "I'm sorry for acting like this towards you, it's kinda selfish" he sighed "You're right, I shouldn't be mad at you, because Connor is truly happy with you." I gave him a weak smile and looked down at Connor, who was still snoring. "So, when did it become official?" He asked, gesturing between Connor and I.

"Funny story, actually. So I was originally going to move back to Aus, because of my grandmas health. I told Connor this, and he didn't take the news too well. I wanted to ask Connor to be my boyfriend before I found out, but since that was put on me, I couldn't, which devastated both Connor and I. Then, a couple days later, I got a call, saying my Nana - well passed away - so we wouldn't need to be moving down there anymore. I decided to keep this from Connor, but tell everybody else. Once it finally go to the day I was supposed to leave, I said goodbye to Connor then snuck in his house, surprised him, then took him out on a date."

"And you asked him out on the date?" He questioned.

"No, this is where it gets good. After the date, I take him back to his house and he was disappointed, he told me he thought I was going to ask him and blah blah blah, I got so frustrated with him, that I threw him the picture frame that said 'will you be mine' and ran off on him."

"What?!" He nearly screamed "Why?"

"I was frustrated and stressed! But I'm not done! I never went home that night, and I stayed at the beach the whole night, crying. Connor called me and called me, but I never answered. Finally the calling stopped until the next morning. After a while, he finally found me. Long story short, there were a lot of apologies and hugs, but in the end, we finally made it official." I smiled, putting my fingers through Connor's hair.

"That's actually a really cute story" Tyler whispered, "I'm glad you have each other"

"So am I. I don't know what I would do if he hadn't found me. I just lov-" I paused in my tracks, scared of what I was going to say next. Was I really going to say that I loved Connor? Was I ready for love? Is it too early for love?

"Troye?" Tyler asked, noticing my sudden lack of speech. "Were you just about to say..." he trailed off as I just nodded in response. A smiled formed on his face as he asked "well do you?"

"I- I don't know, Tyler!" I took my hands out of Connor's hair and put them in mine. "He's just so perfect. His eyes take me places I've never go to before, his hair is so fucking soft. He's such an angelic human who cares about others so fucking much and - oh God, I think I love him Tyler" I took a deep breath, realizing, that yes, I really did love him. "but I can't say anything, it's too early." I breathed "But holy hell, do I love Connor"

Tyler smiled at me in response before picking up his phone. "I think we should go to bed, Troye boy, it's nearly midnight." I nodded in agreement as I closed my eyes.

I Love Connor Franta

** Connor POV **

I jolted awake, breathing heavily. Oh God. No no no no no. I opened my eyes to be greeted by a dark room, a snoring Troye and Tyler, and a clock stating the time as 3:45AM.

I just had a terrifying dream, not really a nightmare, but it still terrified me. I needed to talk to somebody, anybody other than Troye.

I slowly unraveled myself from Troye and shook awake Tyler. "Ty" I whispered, trying my hardest not to wake Troye. "Ty, wake up"

"mmm" he groaned "five more minutes"

"Tyler, it's me, Connor! I need to talk to you." As if that triggered something, Tyler quickly sat up to face me. "I had a bad dream" I breathed, slightly embarrassed.

"What about?" he questioned, sounding sleep deprived. Probably because I woke him up at fucking 3:45, but oh well.

"Promise you won't laugh?"

"Yes, just tell me."

Here goes nothing. "Ihadadreamthatitoldtroyethatilovehimandheranoffonme" I spoke fast, in fear that, even though he promised he wouldn't, Tyler would laugh.

"Connor, it's too early for this shit. Speak slowly, please" I sighed, realizing he was right.

"I had a dream that I told Troye that I loved him, and he ran off on me. Tyler, what do I do?" The thought of the dream gave me the chills, it made me want to cry. "I think I love Troye, Tyler. Well, I know I do, but I'm scared it's too early, Tyler! What if I slip up and tell him on accident? What if he runs off on me because he doesn't love me back?" I started crying at this point, not knowing what else to do. "Tyler, what if my dream was foreshadowing what's actually going to happen? I couldn't bare it if Troye left me, I never want to lose him, I lo-"

Then I couldn't finish my sentence, because Tyler's lips were on mine.
