But, when Connor saw the house his boyfriend lived in up in an blaze of flames, he was devastated, as he not only grew close with Jude, but the Adams-Fosters family also, they were a second family to him, an only family at times.
Connor, focusing on if Jude was the boy trapped, could only hear bits and pieces of what firefighters were saying, "one boy is trapped", "get the 12 foot ladder", and worst of all, "he's trapped under a beam".
"Connor!" Lena, called out to the defeated looking and visibily shaken boy.
"Please, tell it's not Jude!" Connor, asked his boyfriend's mother, who he had especially grown close too, hoping by a miracle it wasn't Jude.
"It's Jude, the firefighters know where he is, their just having trouble getting to him, the roof collapsed and his legs are trapped under a beam." Lena, told her son's boyfriend, devastated herself.
"What do you mean, their having trouble getting to him!" Connor, yelled at Lena, wondering why the firefighters couldn't just go in the burning house and bring his boyfriend, his best friend out before it was too late.
"They said, they have to cut through the wall, from Callie's room, they can't get to Jude's door, the fire is too big." Lena explained to Connor, seeing the boy in tears, having a look of defeat on his face, made her even more upset, and she didn't think that was possible with her youngest, her sweetest child, trapped in a burning room in their own house.
And after hearing what Lena said, Connor kept replaying one phrase in his mind over and over, "they can't get to Jude".
Hearing this, caused the devastated boy to break down, as he fell to the ground, and tears began rolling down his face.
"You have to have faith, that the firefighters will get Jude out, and Jude will be okay." Lena told her son's boyfriend, trying to give Connor faith, that Jude would be okay.
"Okay." Connor, told Lena, as he wiped his tears and stood back up, and Lena wrapped her arm around her son's boyfriend.
But deep down, Lena had no idea how Jude was going to make it out alive, or how any of them were going to cope with the loss of Jude.
But Lena knew one thing for sure, she wasn't going to tell Connor what AJ, Jesus, Stef and Mike saw trying to rescue their little brother.
