Connor had not stopped coughing since I had dropped 'boyfriend' into the conversation. His face was bright red as he fanned his face and I gently patted his back to help ease the shock.
It was humorous to see. Obviously I wasn't that forward to ask Connor to be my boyfriend but I just wanted to see how he would react to it. I knew there was no way he would be ecstatic and throw himself into my arms but it would have been nice.
I had never had a boyfriend before or girlfriends. They were sleeping buddies. Not people who I exactly preferred to cuddle up or care about. However Connor had been my goal from the very moment I was legal and I was lucky that he even had an ounce of attraction to me.
It would have been a hopeless cause if he didn't. I believed it was the universe. Pa and Dad always rambled on about divine interventions therefore I believed it was a divine intervention that Connor was currently seated on my lap after I had kissed him silly.
