Chapter 2: Connections

I opened up the DM.

KitConnor: Once again, I'm sorry about the VMAs thing

ItsAlexiaKelce: It's okay. Thank you for sticking up for me. Nobody has ever done that other than my parents celeb wise at least

KitConnor: Anything for someone as gorgeous as you. Wait was that too forward? I think I was a little bold there.

ItsAlexiaKelce: Dw, I like my men bold
Liked by KitConnor

I smiled at my phone like an idiot. Wait, I've never done that before. A British man I've never met before has a hold on me already. Damn, maybe it's the red hair.

"Who are you texting over there?" My mother asked with a smile.

"A British actor named Kit Connor."

"You're texting Kit Connor? Like Nick Nelson Kit Connor?"

"Mom, what are you talking about?"

"Isn't Kit Connor a star on the show Heartstopper?"

"I'm not sure, let me look him up."

My mother scoffed and chuckled at me.

"Uh- yes he is."

My mother smirked at me.

"Keep me updated with this boy."

"Mom- it's not like that."

"Right.. just don't let your father find out you're texting attractive redheaded boys."

"I'm 18 years old-"

"Don't tell me that, tell your father."

I rolled my eyes with a chuckle as my mom and I got ready for our interview.

I left my phone on the counter as I was eating a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The VMAs were a week away, but my mind wasn't on those. My mind was on cute British actor boy. We were texting a bit, but nothing would ever happen between us. An 11 hours plane flight was not something I'd wanna do if I missed my boyfriend.

My father walked into the kitchen.

"You've been on your phone a lot lately." He said taking a sip of his freshly brewed coffee.

"Yeah, I've just been talking to people. Mostly about the VMAs thing."

"Maybe they'll let you preform at the Super Bowl."

"A girl can only dream." I said with a smile.

He gave me a kiss on the top of my head and sat down at the table. My phone sent off a notification once again. I opened it up. It was from Kit.

KitConnor: Guess who's coming for the VMAs

"No way! Wait, where's Mom?"

"I think she's upstairs."

I ran upstairs, leaving my phone unlocked on the counter.

"Mom! Guess what!"

"What is it, honey?" She said turning away from her makeup vanity.

"Kit is coming to the VMAs!"

She smiled at me.

"That's great! But, Alexia, please don't lead him on. He's a nice kid."

"I won't. I promise."

"You do realize he might only be coming for you."

"No he said he's giving an award, for best new music artist."

"And what are you nominated for?"

"Best new music artist-"

I walked downstairs to see my father looking at my phone.

"This cannot be happening right now-"

"Dad! What the hell! Why are you on my phone?"

"Since when have you been talking to British boys?"

"For like 5 days now. Give me my phone!"

He handed it back to me.

"Tell that boy, if he hurts you I'll hurt him."

"Travis-" My mother said giving him a side eye.

Not much happened in between then and the night of the VMAs other than Kit and I texting. It all started the day of the VMAs.
