In the end there is Love Part 11:
Julia ambushed Connor the next day before work, she knew where his favorite reading spot was he went there every day without fail.

She took a seat across from him and waited...

and waited...

She finally lost patience..."Connor, it's 5:30 in the morning, can you please ignore me at noon instead??"
He put his book away and just stared at her...

"Did you need to talk to me?" he bit out...

"Don't get grumpy at me, none of this is my fault..." Julia blurted..
a cringe and tightening of his jaw could be seen by Julia.. then more blank stares..Connor was the champion of staring, it was a bit disarming.

"I love your brother." Julia admitted to Connor, though it obviously was not what he wanted to hear at that very moment....
"I'm not going to listen to this sh*it..." he practically yelled.

"Connor!....."
"Forget it Julia, I'm leaving..."

"Please wait.....Talk to me...." she begged..

He turned around stared at her..."I don't want you to get hurt..." was all he said.

"Jared won't hurt me..."
Connor just cringed and gave her a big hug...he hoped Jared wouldn't hurt her but his track record said he very well could. Jared was the president of the love em' and leave em' club. Connor didn't want his friend hurt, he cared for Julia more than anyone knew.

Julia was just happy to have Connor as a friend, a hug felt really good right about now, she hated him being silent (moreso than normal).

Julia watched him carefully, it looked like he wanted to say something more to him but as usually when he was stressed he clamped up...

He did want to say more to Julia but figured now was not the time...he got all embarassed about the thoughts swirling around in his head and decided to hightail it out of there before he said something stupid.
