A/N: So this chapter might be a little messed up grammatically. I reread it and found a bunch of tense changes, hopefully it is all fixed. If not and no one understands what I wrote please tell me and I will try and fix it again.

Connor spent the night that night sleeping on Jude's floor with the door open. He and Jude had spent all of Saturday morning just sitting together in Jude's room talking about everything, but also talking about nothing important. Jude was scared to ask and Connor was scared to answer or even think about it. Jude wanted to ask what would happen once they went back to school. He wanted to know if he would still have to see Connor kiss Daria, hold Daria's hand, and see the look of love and affection for her in Connor's eyes.

"Hey, so, uh… I know you are dating Daria and I also know we don't exactly know what this is. But I know that I like you, like I really like you, and if I have to see you kissing Daria and sharing all the same experiences that we have together with her… I, I just," Jude was having trouble speaking his mind, fearing that if he said he wanted Connor to break up with Daria then Jude would lose him.

"I know I want you, but currently she's why my dad lets me come over. He thinks that since I have a girlfriend nothing will happen, so is it really worth ending things with her if it stops us from hanging out?" Connor said with the best intentions in mind, not wanting to lose Jude again because his dad was a homophobic ass. But what he said to Jude was the worst.

"YES!" Jude yells noticing how angry he is, he tried to calm himself before talking again. Breathe in, and out, breathe in and out, he comes back to his senses. "Yes, it's worth it. I want to be with you, Connor, but I won't be a secret, and I won't just sit and watch as you kiss someone else leading them on, then come and kiss me leading me on. You need to make the choice. Either it's this, you and me together, or," Jude stopped, starting to choke on his words, realizing what he is about to tell Connor. "or we could just go back to being just friends, which is better than you not being able to decide and our friendship ending completely."

Connor looked at Jude, in complete and total shock. He didn't want Jude to be his secret, but at the same time he didn't want his dad or the school to know. Completely torn at the choices he tried to talk to Jude, "Ju—" Suddenly they heard a honk come from outside.

"I think that's your dad, you should go." Jude looks down unable to stare Connor in the eye. "Make your decision by the end of the school week. In that time we'll act friendly but this," Jude points his fingers at Connor then back at himself. "What we did this past day and a half stops."

Connor stood up, grabbed his stuff, and headed for the door. But before he went downstairs he turned and walked quickly towards Jude. He pulled the smaller boy up with power and speed, and then kissed him. It was a passionate kiss. Jude's mind told him to be strong and stop, but he gave into Connor's lips and kissed him back. As Connor pulled away he smirked, "One for the road" Connor turned around and went down stairs, Jude watched from his window as Connor walks to his car. Once he was in the car and gone Jude sighed and laid down.

"UHHH… what was that?" Jude scurried up from his bed, hearing the voice from the entrance of the door. He sees Callie staring at him; knowing what she probably saw or heard Jude looks blankly at her.

"What was what?" Jude tried to avoid her question, knowing if he told her that he and Connor were possibly a thing she would go all super protective.

"That kiss?! Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about, you kissed him just as much as he kissed you." Callie seemed kind of mad, or worried, Jude had always had some issues reading her emotions when she was in sister mode.

"Oh that? That was nothing just uh- practice, yeah practice. Practice for when he kissed Daria, he wanted to make sure that he was a good kisser." Jude lied. He was a terrible liar when he had to lie to Callie.

"That was a terrible lie; I think you need to talk to me or the family about something."

"I choose the family. I'll gather everyone up, just go downstairs for now." Jude sighed. He knew he would have to tell everyone eventually that he was gay. Jesus had already walked in on him and Connor and figured it out. Stef and Lena had already had a talk with them but Jude was still worried. He walked in front of Mariana and Callie's room. He let out a deep breath and opened the door. "Hey Mar, Moms need us downstairs." He knew telling everyone that Moms wanted them would get them down quicker.

"Ok meet you down there, don't forget to get Brandon and Jesus."

"Jesus is at wrestling, so I just gotta get Brandon." Jude smiled as he turned around and walked to Brandon's room.

"Hey Jude what's up?" Brandon looked up from his keyboard to see his younger brother who was just above his eye level even with Brandon sitting.

"Mom wants us downstairs." Jude gave him a smile.

"Okay I'm heading down now." Brandon headed out of his room and Jude followed him down the stairs and into the kitchen. Stef and Lena were already conveniently in the kitchen, Lena was working and Stef was drinking her morning coffee.

"So Moms what's up?" Brandon asks as he took a seat on one of the kitchen stools.

"Actually Moms didn't need everyone, I did. I have something to tell everyone." Jude sighed as he looks around the room, everyone's piercing eyes looking at him.

"What is it Judicorn?" Mariana smiled at him giving him that older sister look she seems to have perfected.

Jude took a few deep breaths trying to get the words out; he knows they are true, he thinks he has known for a while. But he has never said them aloud to anyone. He looks around, everyone is still looking at him. Callie seems to know what is coming, so do Moms, but both Mariana and Brandon are puzzled. He finally decides he is just going to close his eyes and say it.

"I'm gay."

A/N: I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I know it was a bit less lighthearted than the first two but I think this stuff will be very important in Jude and Connor's relationship.
