the vow [connor]

[elizabeth alicia garner]

An adorable loving plot line. A friday night and an opening of a movie that Liz was pretty much dying to see brought the brunette teen here well alone. Well, she wasn't there yet she was on a bus on the way there because she was sixteen and she couldn't drive yet. She somewhat wished her mother was here with her to watch the movie, because she already knew she was going to cry both happy and sad tears, and she didn't want to be alone. Then again...Liz would secretly admire Channing Tatum on the big screen above her and envy Rachel McAdams for being so damn pretty. It wasn't fair some people had all the luck and all the beauty. She clutched her bag close to her along the way wishing her life could be some movie wishing she was pretty like the people in the movies. Well, it was why they were on the big screen and she was in reality a teenage girl on a bus all alone. It was better that way actually...no one to well disappoint.

The bus stopped in front of the theater and she double checked times in front of her and sighed when she saw it was sold out. That was just her luck. She turned to go back to the bus but it was gone. Liz couldn't bring herself to be upset she was more sad that she was dumb enough not to check to see if there were tickets still on sale. She held her bag close and going over to a table that was set up for people to eat at in the lobby. The smelling of food was making her hungry. Now what was she to do? Just go and eat like a pig. As if she didn't already look fat enough in her dress. The girl heard giggling and looked up to see Claire Lambert. If the girls attitude wasn't so ugly...no who was she kidding the girl was beautiful and she wished she was like that. Maybe, it was why she was considered a wannabe. Or maybe it was because she was gross.

Sitting and soaking up insecurities when the smell of food was in her midst well was a lost cause soon enough the brunette was up and getting nachos. It was such a messy meal but the chips and the cheese it would ease her sorrow for the time being until she figured out what she was going to do with her now lost night. Probably eat and regret it then she'd go and make herself feel better and catch a cab ride back to Riverside. Yeah, it was such a predictable routine, but it was all her own. She sat back down and began to eat on her nacho's trying to ignore all the good looking people in the theater and the fact they were all going to go see the movie she was dying to see but couldn't now...not today at least. She looked so happy eating her nacho's despite being sad and feeling sick that she was adding to her looks of possibly being considered a cow. Well, at least others were going to be happy and enjoy the movie. It'd be selfish of her to cheat someone out of a seat anyways. She wiped her mouth looking up to see the happy faces. "...at least they're all having a nice time." she said talking to herself pry looking like a freak so she covered her mouth growing slightly upset with herself.

star wars. in 3D. what other thing could this boy want to see? its like every nerds wet dream and it wasn't like connor was a big nerd or anything. he was considered a jock, mostly because of what he liked to do. he played sports, and he liked to work out and eat healthy but that was just kind of something that ran in the christianson family. but then again, he wasn't smart enough to be a nerd anyway, who knew what connor would have been if his family wasn't so into sports and health! he was kind of glad he was, he didn't want to go around all the different cliques and probably would be considered a 'wannabe' but that wasn't really him. yeah he liked making friends and keeping them happy but who didn't like making their friends happy? that was just normal human being things, or at least normal to connor. he was raised that way! to help.

which was why he made sure to help lots of homeless before today and this was his special trip to the movies. he had to beg his mom because she usually doesn't like them watching too much tv and movies because it like melted your brain or something. he was sure she was just over-reacting because that was just how his mother was. but she finally said yes, only because he was been wanting to see this movie for a long time! he even bought the cereal just for the pins! it wasn't like special 'star wars' cereal but more like lucky charms with pens in it! either way he had pens! one of them were in his pocket, his yoda one to be exact. yeah he was kind of a crazy nerd but whatever. what person didn't have a secret obsession?

however he was so excited after seeing the movie, he decided to go eat before he went back to the school. plus the bus was going to take a bit to get here anyway and he wasn't going to go waiting or walking in the cold! he didn't really like the cold much and well he only dealt with it when he was practicing or at a game. but then he was usually running or doing something where his body heat usually protected him from the cold. though when he went inside and got a hotdog and looked for a place to spot, he spotted someone he found really..well beautiful. hot would be another way he would describe her but then he usually felt like some asshole when he thought that. plus she was beautiful, it fit her more than hot anyway.

he walked up to her and smiled as she ate some nachos and he kind of just sat across from her. "hey liz! i hope you dont' mind if i keep you company. the bus won't be here for awhile and i like sitting with pretty girls." he kind of blushed at that, 'smooth move connor! just make the girl think your a freak and ramble like a moron.' he was an idiot when it came to girls and kind of just rambled because well, he wasn't used to many girls and especially not really pretty one's like elizabeth! she was cute and made him him have like butterflies in his stomach and want to just tell her she's cute and take her on a date. then again, he knew a pretty girl like her could never fall for him at all.

elizabeth and the vow it was like she was going to watch that to get her hopes up about a kind of clueless person. not that the great and the beautiful rachel mcadams was clueless, but her part had lost all memory with that beautiful like man on the screen playing her husband. if she woke up from a coma and channing tatum told her they were married, she’d have a hard time believing him, because well liz was liz and he was muscle and gorgeous and that would be a yeah right moment. elizabeth had a few dates but never managed to have a relationship with anyone and she knew what she wasn’t relationship material. the girl knew that much. she wasn’t pretty like most of the girls in her high school and all the guys and or girls were swooped up and obviously uninterested in a girl like her. liz felt like she had a lot of things to work on with herself anyways. one of which these nacho’s weren’t helping. she stared at them for a moment. ”you’re just so good its not fair” she whispered. she hated being fat! she wore a long sleeve shirt to cover up her nonexistent fat arms and stomach, because no one needed to see her lard.

here she was selfishly eating nacho’s in a theater and not at the soup kitchen. she hadn’t even made it to the movie that she wanted to go see! she was so selfish and she felt like it was karma. the people at the kitchen couldn’t come in here and go see a movie or eat these nachos. yeah, it was pay back that she couldn’t see the vow. she was sure her mother would try and tell her it was okay and that she wasn’t being selfish and try and cheer her up, but she knew in all honesty it well she knew partly that there had to be some reason behind her missing it other than stupidity. the other movie that premiered tonight was star wars 3D and well she thought star wars was kind of fun and the princess liegh girl was really pretty and seeing it in 3D would be cool, but she didn’t feel deserving. she was starting to get a little full but she just kept eating trying to ignore the joy going on around her not that she wasn’t happy for everyone else...she was just in a semi-funk if you will.

the room got louder as one of the showings let out and she kind of smiled at some little boy with a life saver in his hand kind of swinging it about. she wanted to now go play with swords and regretted not coming earlier because people were saying it was really good and just a mix of things were hitting liz now. she was envious of even the children, but she enjoyed seeing them happy. it brought happiness to her. at least some people were enjoying themselves. she looked down at the nacho tray and they were nearly all gone. she hadn’t planned on eating all of them and felt sick even a little bit. she needed to get up and go relieve herself, because it wasn’t like she really needed to put on more weight or anything. she was about to get up and do so when she saw connor in front of her and his chipper voice. he called her pretty and she bit her lip. she wasn’t pretty and she kind of looked around to see if he was talking to the same liz. the smile came back to her lips a little because she didn’t like being mean. ”hi connor!” she said giving a small little wave and even kind of blushed thinking over the word pretty. ”i’m not that, but you can stay” she said with a shrug. she just would go and get sick later or something.

”yeah, i just got off the bus to come see the vow, but its sold out so im waiting for the bus back...” she said shrugging. ”what’d you come here to see” she said looking at the hotdog and back up at the attractive blonde. why would he want to sit with her? was this some sort of sick joke? that hot dog looked pretty good to, but she kind of shunned herself feeling horrible about looking at someone else’s food and she felt her stomach rumble and she just wanted to hide. here she ate a whole thing of nacho’s and now she was looking at his hot dog. the thought of it made her kind of just want to run to the bathroom, but she stayed planted not wanting to hurt his feelings by leaving because he was sweet and she really liked him.

[connor brendon christianson]

if there was anything that could make poor connor christianson blush and get nervous, that would be girls. especially pretty one's like liz! he could be in front of the whole school playing sports and talking to a crowd of people and not have any problem. but around a pretty girl? who he kind of liked, he probably seemed like a lunatic! he had no way to filter what he said and sometimes even stuttered because he just wanted elizabeth alicia garner to like him and he felt she didn't. not because he didn't see anything in himself but more because liz was so beautiful that she probably had so many better looking guys. he was just kind of normal in his looks, though his personality was one in a million. not many jocks liked to spend their free time at the soup kitchen or just passing out food on the streets but connor didn't just do food. he gave money because he knew some people wanted it for booze and they wouldn't take the food otherwise. and well he didn't want the poor people to starve either way.

if anything, connor was just too sweet for his own good and well he didn't realize this. not that he didn't know what he did was a good thing but was it sweet? he just kind of figured it was teh right thing to do and nothing too special. yes he knew people in the world weren't as good as his mother and himself but he didn't feel overly special helping other's. he liked doing it but mostly because the smiles on the people's faces were beautiful and it wasn't a selfish reason. he didn't want to feel special, he just wanted other's to be happy and those smiles told him they were. and yes he felt good about it afterwards but he didn't care about the feeling. the boy was just a sweetheart and he didn't care much anymore.

she wasn't that? did she not see it..or was she just saying that to not seem conceited? he wasn't sure which one it was but he smiled and kind of blushed a bit as he swallowed a lump in his throat. just looking at her made his stomach swim with butterflies and things. he was crushing on the girl big time but really? who wouldn't? she was always so sweet to other's and she was beautiful in all ways. there was something about her though that just made connor want to be the one to hold her at night. maybe it was his parents relationship? the way they looked at each other still? he wanted something like that, and someone who wasn't selfish like so many girls seemed to be. including his sister. she was one of the most selfish human he had met. the way she talked to their mom, it kind of pissed him off and usually that was hard.

the vow? he had seen that, and it seemed like a good movie but kind of like a chick flick in a way. but maybe if he took liz to see it, then she'd like him? maybe..he hoped. "oh..well if you want? i can uh..buy some tickets for tomorrow and we can go see it," he said biting his lip and kind of deciding to take a bite of his hot dog so he wouldn't say anything else. he didn't eat a lot of hot dogs and greasy foods because his mom had always been on a health kick, unless it was chocolate of course. but connor did kind of like to have a hot dog or burger here and there and some good old french fries. then she asked what he had seen today and he wanted to hit himself in the head for being a dumb person. he could lie? say it was some other movie, but he didn't know what other movies were playing. so he swallowed his hot dog and looked at his diet coke. "uh..star wars," he said with a blush before running his hand through his hair, "yeah..i know..kind of nerdy."

being that elizabeth didn’t see herself as a potential candidate for a girlfriend or anything in the crush regard she didn’t see how one would be nervous around her. though if connor mentioned it well the girl would feel tricked really and possibly cry. liz had tried it out and her insecurities got the better of her. she never felt good enough for the other person and well the guys she went out with or well dated tended to be jerks and want in her pants. she never really got why...liz wasn’t thinking about connor like that because it’d be selfish. he was sweet and she did find him to be handsome, but there was some girl out there that was pretty and meant for him and well it wasn’t her and she wouldn’t even let herself think of it for now, because...she’d be taking him from that chance and what he deserved or should have.

the young girl liked making people happy and the smiles on their faces made her happy, but sometimes after words she’d walk back alone and the bums would really get to her saying stuff that wasn’t true and making her feel gross in more ways than one. the alcohol had them not caring how old she was and obviously they didn’t care too much about looks because she was like a cow walking back to riverside and they said stuff like hey beautiful, let me show you a good time and other gross things that well liz didn’t like thinking about, because she didn’t like being naked. her body was gross and the things they spoke of required being nude and she couldn’t imagine....no it wasn’t ever going to happen.. and then she felt like she was being so rude declining, because they did act like they wanted her, but it was her being selfish and the fact that they smelt...it wasn’t their faults though and they were people to but it was all just a twisted game that liz’s head was playing on her. the stories she was feeding herself.

liz watched him blush and reached for her napkin was there something on her face? was that why he was calling her cute or beautiful or was it pretty? her mind was busy tearing the words apart. deep down she knew she was, but she didn’t feel that way she felt completely opposite and she didn’t like when people told her she was any of the above. she pulled out a mirror out of her purse to glance real quick not wanting to keep looking foolish and kind of just saw her reflection and shut the mirror. yeah, that didn’t help her any looking in the mirror only made her feel kind of worse about herself. ”everything alright?” she asked just to be sure because she was really a caring person and cause it got really quiet and it made liz think she did or said

connor seemed to be thinking about it for a moment and well elizabeth wondered what it was he was thinking about. did she sound stupid by admitting she wanted to see that movie. the girl kind of chewed on her bottom lip out of habit and then he said something about if she wanted he could buy tickets and they could come see it tomorrow it was kind of nice on his part, but if she wanted. it was selfish of her to mention it and it’d be selfish because he said if she wanted and she...the way it was put and sense it was a chick flick she wasn’t about to make connor do that. ”oh no its okay it’s my fault and it’s a girly movie and i wouldn’t make you sit through it with me.” was it worded right? it sounded about right, because that is how liz saw it she would be making connor go see a movie with her. the whole reason she was here alone was because she was disgusting and he was pry doing it to be nice and well it was what it was. now it was kind of silent until he mentioned star wars and blushing. ”was it good?” she asked seemingly interested because liz was like that she was interested in others and keeping conversation when the time was appropriate, because she liked seeing their smiled, but in part...no the truth of the matter was it made her happy to talk to connor he was the only person besides raylyn really that she talked to, but she hoped she wasn’t wasting his time he could easily be talking to anyone...”it’s not nerdy star wars is a really cool movie if not completely classic...” she said flashing a smile it was opinion and fact. she kind of glanced about looking for his date figuring he was here with someone, but no one familiar caught her eye and she somewhat felt rude so she went back to being quiet and reached for her water drinking some keeping down her thoughts of wanting to part to the restroom because she felt kind of just weird. she looked up at him he was cute and sweet how was he not here with someone?

[connor brendon christianson]

the oldest christianson boy didn't feel like he deserved someone better than liz because liz was the best in his opinion and it was her who deserved better. he didn't look down on himself but he just felt like she deserved someone handsome and caring but if she wanted him, he would take it with happiness and not think twice. he would just be glad he got something good and love her just the same but she didn't want him at the moment and so he was just crushing and trying to swoon her. and maybe get a date but so far, he was doing a bad job at both of them, at least that was his opinion on his so called 'swooning'

if connor was with liz when the homeless said those things, he wouldn't be able to keep his anger in. he'd be angry and kind of disgusted at them because that wasn't any way to talk to someone, no matther if its a really beautiful lady. if anything you should treat the really beautiful lady with lots of respect or any lady or any person. it would just gross him out and annoy him that people could be so vulgar and disgusting, especially to a beautiful woman. lady's deserved respect and care, not disgusting words, no they shouldn't have to hear that.

connor just really liked ms. garner and she made him feel kind off weird inside but it was kind of like a good weird. he just kind of had no clue of what to say to her that wouldn't make her think he was kind of weird. maybe it would have been best if he didn't try so hard to swoon her but he couldn't help but want to buy her thousands of flowers and chocolates and hug her and hold her and make her happy. but that wasn't his place because they were just friends but a boy could wish couldn't he? he was thinking about her when she spoke and he blushed again, "yeah. everything's perfect." and he wasn't even lying.

that's what guys did right? go watch chick flicks to make the girl they like happy? he would sit through titanic again if that's what liz wanted and he practically hated it. or more the fact that it made his mother cry and he didn't know why or know what to do to make her smile during that movie. so the vow would be nothing if it meant doing something to make elizabeth happy and to maybe get her to see he's a nice guy then she'll like him? yeah..he doubted just a movie would do that but a boy could wish. when she said no, he took out his phone and went to the moviewatcher's app and purchased to tickets for the next night at 7. "too late, the tickets are already bought and there's no one i rather go with than you." he smiled at her and slid his phone in his pocket, for once he wasn't taking no for an answer. he was determined to have a 'date' with liz or just two friends going to a movie. either way it would be with liz and that's the important part. when she asked him about the movie he bit the insides of his cheek, "well i don't know..it was good to me? but some people might not feel the same." he shrugged, it wasn't important, it was a movie and it was a good movie. though it wasn't one of the original movies because those would probably be hell trying to make it 3D. he smiled when she said it wasn't a nerdy movie and he shrugged, "its a classic and good but i'm happy to admit that its kind of nerdy. especially when most everyone there had lightsabers." he smiled a bit, "so what have you been up to liz other than missing a good movie?"

elizabeth alicia garner, was completely oblivious to the fact that connor christianson was even crushing on her. she couldnt comprehend that someone liked her in any manner. sure she had friends and liked people well ray and connor and her mama were her friends. it was really silly! she wasnt exactly the most out going person out there, but she tried to show compassion and respect because she felt like people deserved it. though not meeting and making that many friends only confirmed the fact that she wasnt really likable in her opinion that was how she saw it anyways. she didnt see that connow was trying to swoon her. if she noticed that well she wouldnt ask him why she may think it was a mistake? yeah a mistake..connor was a sweet person and sporty and she was selfish and gross!

the homeless guys pretty much made her just another reason to be sick! they had a reason to be all nasty and they were looking at her because she pry fit in with that crowd? as hard as she tried not too but she just didnt know how to wear herself or see herself any other way. she felt like she was putting herself in the situation though by going back...was it weird the attention making her sick made her feel better? she was sick and the illness was purely mental! maybe she needed to open her eyes but when she did she still did not like what she saw! it was a really tough situation well for her at least.

everything was perfect? that was kind of cute. well at least someone was having a really good night! that made a smile came out even it was really rather genuine! "good im glad" she said honestly happy for someone it was great when she could see others like this! though with her there though she was sure it was dampered but he would admit it. so when he took his phone out and said too late he got tickets and there was no one he would rather go with she looked at the blonde nervously and puzzled. she kind of sat up in her seat a little "did you just ask me on on a date feel free to say no i know it sounds really stupid...nevermind" her insecurities getting the best of her! why would he ask her on a date she should just hit herself for that! she was so stupid sometimes! "sorry" she said knowing full well he just was being nice and a good friend she got her purse ready to dismiss herself because she felt dumb!

the smile through her off slightly and she felt herself getting nervous and she couldnt even look at him...at the moment she felt like she really messed up! "i heard it was supposed to be good" she said quietly and looked down at her hands in her lap she was slightly shakey. she gave off a small giggle when he said it was nerdyy. "youre silly she said glancing up and then she was asked what she was up too. she was boring so nothing. "uhh nothing i guess school work i dont really know many people or things about boston" she admitted like a nerd. she felt kind of like a loser and she was slightly but she was being open with him as well.

well it seemed liz kind of caught on, though he was just going to deem it a date after it was over and be all 'want to go on another one' to kind of build up his courage. because if he called it a date in his head, and it went good. then it meant she liked him, in his head, and he could ask her out again without fear that she'll tell him no. but now..she kind of asked and he wanted to face palm himself.it was supposed to be a subtle thing but it was obvious and he felt like a dingus! "uh..yeah like a date," he smiled and then looked around. "okay so truthfully. i was going to call it a date in my head but have you see it however so i can build up courage to ask you out on an actual date." he shrugged and looked around and bit his lip, 'come on connor man up and actually ask.'

"uh elizabeth garner would you go on a date with me tomorrow?" yeah..there we go. he was already planning something sweet and cute! their tickets were at 7 but he'd pick her up early and make her food or something. his momma taught him to cook and she was pretty good? it wasn't like horrible mush or something! so he knew that his would be just as good? maybe..he hoped. oh well. he was kind of waiting for the laugh and the no and for her to walk away. then again that didn't seem like a liz thing..she was sweet and fed the homeless just like him. so why would she be rude? but he still was prepared to be turned down.

when she said it was kind of stupid..he took it more as a 'i don't want to go out with you connor' and frowned. "oh..okay," he said. "um i can give you the ticket verification code and you can take who ever." he felt like an idiot to think the pretty garner girl would want to go on a date with him.she probably rather hangout with her friends and he could feel his happiness dwindle. he was kind of sad because he really did like her. but they could be friends, if she wanted of course.

his happiness dwindling slowly, he kind of just shrugged when she spoke about star wars but then, he kind of realized he was being rude. yeah his mother would not be happy with him right now and so he forced a smile, "yeah it was really good. you should see it." no we..because he got it..she didn't like him. at least not more than a friend. he smiled, a real smile, when she called him silly and then nodded. "you know me so we should do more things," he said with a nod and then reminded himself that she didn't like him and kind of sunk back in his seat. "i know some..just because my mom's best friends kids go here and things." he liked maddix, kay, faith, jacob, eli, and aster but sometimes, he wished he had actual friends like liz. they were more family then friends and though he loved them, family was starting to be too much.

elizabeth alicia garner, caught on for a moment, but then couldn’t help but find her logic somewhat dumb because of the fact that she felt like she was being conceited and well who would want to go out with her? connor christianson was such a sweet person surely he could do better then someone like her. she felt like such a ditz for even mentioning it, but she was chewing on her lip embarrassed and looking at the table when he started speaking. it made her feel like a jerk she didn’t even say anything at the moment she was at a loss for words. her mind was swarming around why had he just confirmed this? she was right? why did he want to go on a date with her of all people when he could have someone radiant. he was a jock surely girls ate that up...suddenly she felt nervous and a blush creeping up on her face.

when he actually asked she didn’t make eye contact with him. she wanted to somewhat cry, but it wasn’t necessarily bad. then she did it she made eye contact with him and her eyes just stayed locked on hers. she saw that he really did want to go on a date with her and that he was pry nervous about it and instantly she felt like a butt. she felt butterflies kind of rise up within her and she still said nothing as she looked at him. she blinked a couple times she was in some state of shock and speechless. could they be more then friends? could it be that she kind of just the whole time been oblivious to connor’s feelings? she felt like even more of a jerk at that point, but she wouldn’t do anything out of guilt...which was why she was studying him and staying silent. she was considering all the possibilities heavily. why he would like someone like her was baffling, because he could have so much better and she was coming to a very selfish decision.

she saw him frown and instantly her mind was screaming at her to do something before she lost the chance...even though it was pry better to let him move on to someone better and great. she moved the cheesy plate and his plate out of the way as not to lean in something and she kissed his cheek. ”i’d like very much to go on a date with you” she said sitting back down in her seat and she felt herself smile and blush she couldn’t believe she even mustered up the words, but she was happy though it was selfish.

the other words hurt her she would never take his tickets and the only other person she knew was ray, but no...she really did want to go with connor. ”none of thats necessary...before i just i just thought i was jumping to conclusions” she admitting softly moving his plate thing back in front of him. she had a date! now she was nervous and she could feel her hands kind of sweating and she couldn’t wait to tell her mom but she still felt very much selfish...he could take anyone, but he asked her and then he was saying they should do more things together and liz was still puzzled, but her smile was still radiating off her face. connor was making her happier then she really ever had been unless she was with her mother, but this was a different kind of happy. ”i’d like that i mean if you want?” of course he wanted to it was his suggestion, but liz couldn’t help herself she had to put words like that into the equation in case he was doing stuff out of guilt. ”i know a few people...cause my family, but i don’t see them a lot” she admits. she saw connor the most and her mind was starting to race with all the times they had hung out...it was nice.

[connor brendon christianson]

the somewhat young christianson would never really understand the bad things liz saw in herself because those things made him like her that just more. she was so selfless, doing things for others, way before her own happiness and that..was something connor could only wish for. much like his mother, that was who liz reminded him of in a strange way. okay that was kind of creepy to really think about but she did. his mom was a woman he looked up to and well he wanted to love someone as selfless as his own mother. that was what elizabeth garner was at least in his point of view anyway! and that was all that mattered? that he liked her a lot and that she liked him. what others thought weren't important ad usually connor didn't worry about others anyway and he was going to try to show liz that sometimes you didn't need to think about if others thought you were ugly. because she wasn't ugly and if someone called her ugly..well he'd want to punch them. even though connor was kind of anti-violence, he was also pro-saving a pretty girl like miss garner here.

if she cried..well connor wouldn't know what to really do about it and he'd be so confused and worried. then kind of feel bad because well it was his fault? it wasn't like anyone was around other than connor and so that would be his logic. he wouldn't think about her making herself sad because she shouldn't be sad? he just wasn't that kind of person..okay so he just wasn't really smart..that was a better way to put it anyway. oh well..the point is connor was just confused because he didn't quite understand what the heck was going on here because he just wanted a date with a pretty lady..and it was making his head kind of spin with confusion when it seemed she didn't want to go and he was kind of sad in a way because liz was just that pretty.

then the words...oh the words made connor happy! that he could understand. they were simple and to the point and made him smile and less confused. then again he was still kind of confused but at least she wanted to go on a date with him! then again..she did do things to please others but that thought didn't cross the christanson boy right now! happiness just filled up in his brain and mind and made him giddy in a way! kind of like a strange high? a high of happiness. he wasn't sure if it was possible but thats how he felt..not that the boy even knew what being high was like but no, that didn't really matter. right? nope not at all. he could just imagine it right now with this happiness.

"oh," he said, still a bit confused but still happy that she was going to go with him. "i just thought you didn't really want to go with me." he shrugged because he didn't need an explanation of why a really pretty girl was going with him to see a movie on a date! there just was a date and he wouldn't let her get out of it..okay so if she decided she dind't want to go, he wasn't going to force her. no, that wasn't his style. he was the kind of let the girl choose and if they do or don't it doens't matter. they could be friends. BUT SHE WANTED TO GO! and that was the best part! then shekissed his cheek andd he didn't know how to respond to that! how did someone respond to kisses? he wasn't even sure so he just smiled a kind of dorky wide smile because that was all he could do! yeah, he knew he looked like an idiot and a dork but he was fine with it of course.

when she said if he wanted, well he kind of got confused because he did ask. right? well whatever, he just smiled. "of course i want to. why else would i ask to go on a date liz? if i don't want to see mmore of you." he kind of felt awkward because this stuff wasn't something he was used to and he had a small blush on his cheeks as he stared at the ground and bit his lip nervously. connor nodded..yeah he was the same way? kind of..eh didnt know really because he didn't talk to them much so it didn't really matter? everyone kind of stayed in maine, or boston but his mom and dad moved to georgia ad he liked it there...so he didn't know much of his 'family friends' or whatever.."yeah same here."

[elizabeth alicia garner]

the brunette was not quite sure why it was that her and her mother found themselves to be selfish, ugly, and fat...but it was triggered in little miss garners head and her and her mother understood one another and it was great and why they were possibly the best of friends because no one would quite understand the girls and well they knew what to say and what not to say to one another. it was perfect! connor, though was such a sweet person that when he complemented her looks she didnt want to be mean so she never said anything mean but she did deny it. though connor was handsome and selfless...she couldnt helo but look at him in a new light after asking her on a date! unlike most guys he seemed really nice and the guys she previously went on dates with expected too much but she was going to trust this sweet boy wouldnt change. that would cause her to be really sad if that happened, but she did trust connor and this date was going to be amazing she was sure of it...though she did feel a little selfish the two of them going to the vow...it was a chick flick. surely, he didnt really want to go see the vow. the girl was puzzled with this! she would have to do something way nice in return as long as the date went well! though she was getting nervous purely thinking about it!

silence set in for some time and liz watched him. he looked so happy and that realy caught her off gaurd. he must of really wanted a date with her! she was shocked in her own little way. this made her happy and want to call mama flo and nervous and she completely forgot she was going to puke for being fat...now she wanted to puke because she was nervous. though she blinked a couple of times and bit her lip glancing away from him to take a deap breath and calm her insides. when she looked back she cleared her throat. "connor?" she asked seeing as he was so silent. she was just making sure he was alright. the girl wasn't going to break him though with her curiosity. though she was very curious as to why in the heck he wanted to go on a date with her in the first place. the girl even blushed after a moment of silence not knowing what else to say herself.

oh? he sounded confused and well liz didn't know how she could make it more clear. he was a sweetheart buying tickets for her, asking her on a date, and getting extremely happy it seemed at her yes. elizabeth didn't feel like she was doing enough her. his i just thought you didn't want to go with me...that made her kind of sad. did she come of as a mean and cruel person like that? she mentally slapped herself. "i'm really sorry i gave you that impression" she said somewhat nervously, but the nervousness in her voice was unintentional. the dorky wide smile though well her eyes couldn't come off it for a moment and she felt as if her cheeks were going to be pink all night because of mister christianson, but it was probably one of the best responses she could give, because it was oh so natural. "i like your smile" she said out loud not meaning to, but once she said it she couldn't take it back. now her mind was just thinking of different things she liked about connor and it wouldn't stop..."sorry" she said embarrassed and biting her lower lip.

a wide smile crossed her lips when he said of course he wanted to. those were words she didn't think she would hear like ever. then he asked why else would he ask her on a date? well she was still confused as to why in the first place, but it didn't mean she didn't like it! though the last part made her kind of melt in a sense and she was speechless for awhile just frozen in the moment, that she wished she knew how to break. she needed her mothers advice here, but she didn't know what flo would tell her to do. what would her dad have done? "i-i-i" she stuttered for a moment feeling like an idiot. "sorry" was all she knew what to say feeling like she had lost control of what to do, but she was trying so hard! maybe that was it she was trying to hard and she needed someone to smack her out of it. she took a deep breath and shut her eyes for a moment knowing she pry looked weird but she needed it. she opened her eyes and he was still sitting there. his cheeks were pink and she knew he was just as nervous as she was and he was doing everything really...he was completely charming in a way that liz had never felt before...pulling it together wasn't easy, but there was obviously some weird desire from him to her.. "i'm not really good with this" she said finally just coming clean with him. "i'm not good with actually...seeing when a guy likes me or what people really want" she said nervous. "i'd like nothing more to hang out with you more connor i just i guess i just add in the if you want, because..." wow, this was going to scare him away surely! "because i'm not use to people really wanting to hang out?" she said wondering if that did it. she would have to wait and see.

"as far as the whole dating thing i'm not good with it either, and please don't like run when i say this, but there isn't anyone i'd rather be going on a date with..." was that overboard? oh god she felt like she needed to throw up. "i just i just didn't see that you felt that way...before" she admitted. "but i'm really happy...nervous but happy" okay, so after that little liz felt like she was talking too much and well she needed some sort of stability, because she was sure he was going to run away from her, but she reached over and set her hand on top of his. his hand was warm and it had to be welcoming if he wanted to go on a date with her? or well she was making that assumption. maybe, she admitted this all too fast and now worries of him thinking she was some unmanageable and undateable wreck was going through her mind. had she ruined this like he ruined everything else?
