Jude's face was beet red at the thought of what Connor had just whispered in his ear.

"You're being gross" said Jude, looking at Connor through narrowed eyes.

"Whaat... But I'm not" said Connor playfully.

"I'm just saying, a little supm supm." he added.

"We're thirteen" Jude said.

"I'm almost fourteen, thank you" Connor cut him off and puffed up his chest.

"Whatever, well, your little something isn't going any where near my little something for at least another year and a half. Maybe" said Jude.

"I'm not that kind of boy" he added, batting his eyes.

"A year and a half"said Connor. "I should have gotten Matt's numb..."

Before he could finish Jude whacked him in the shoulder.

"Oww why'd you hit me so hard? Help I'm being abused" Connor called out.

"Stop it"said Jude.

"I don't know why you're so upset. You're the one who thinks he looks hot without a shirt" said Connor.

"If you don't stop, I'm gonna put my foot up your butt"said Jude.

"Your foot? That's not what I had in mind" said Connor, then he stuck out his tongue at jude and let it hang there for a while. Then he did that eyebrow thing.

Jude's mouth fell open in disbelief. Connor quickly touched Jude's tongue with his index finger. Jude started spitting up.

"Gottcha you back" Connor chirped.

"Oh you're dead meat buddy" jude responded.

"Sorry, here comes my dad" said Connor as he jumped up and hobbled off as fast as he could.

Jude walked slowly and deliberately to the truck. He was seething.

When he got to the truck, he saw that Connor was sitting there with no shirt on, with that silly smirk on his face. Jude rolled his eyes and got in.

"Hi Mr. Stevens" Jude said.

"Hi Jude. Do I wanna know what's going on?" Said and asked Connor's dad.

"Take no notice Mr. Stevens he's being juvenile. Your son thinks he has something to prove." Jude said.

"Matt would notice" Connor muttered under his breath.

"Oww, dad he poked me" were his next words.
