Gay Romance Heats Up on VH1's Hit the Floor

VH1's sexy scripted drama Hit the Floor has been breaking new ground on television -- and turning up the heat -- with the developing romance between the show's basketball stud Zero (Adam Senn) and Jude (Brent Antonello).

The couple -- referred to as "Zude" by fans -- had been keeping their relationship on the down low, even ironically hooking up in an actual closet earlier this season.

However, that all changed in last week's jaw-dropping episode when Zero kissed Jude on the basketball court in front of millions of people.

In an exclusive clip from tonight's episode below, Zero and Jude cozy up between the sheets and discuss the future after their public display of affection on the court.

Hit the Floor airs tonight at 10/9 Central on VH1.
