After After...

Hero

"So that's it then, I guess this is the end." I say to Josephine as we walk back to our hotel rooms.

Its only just hit me that our After journey has ended, I know I want to do more projects after all of this but nothing like After, this is our thing.

"Hero, you know we've still got the press tours to do. And its not the end, we'll still see each other right?"

"See that's the thing, after all that you'll go back to Australia and ill go back to London."

As much as it hurts to say, this probably will be the last few weeks me and Jo get to spend together. After that we have other things in our lives to do. I just wish there was more time for me to figure out how to keep us close. Josephine makes me feel a way that no other women has made me feel, she makes me laugh, she's so kind and caring which makes her even so attractive. Sometimes I wonder if she feels the same way, if she thinks about kissing me from out of no where, if she thinks about what it would be like to see me, to see all of me like I do with her.

I'm snapped back into reality with a hand waving in front of my face. "Earth to Hero, did you hear me?"

"What, sorry what did you say?" I was too carried away thinking about the future that I was focused on the present.

"I said what time do you want me to come by your hotel to help you get ready for the cast party?"

Shit, the cast party. I forgot all about that, how could I forget? I get to finally see Jo being Jo and wearing what she wants to wear without having a planned wardrobe. I've nagged her so many times to tell me what she's wearing so that I could casually wear something that matches without looking too desperate but she wont say anything. I pictured her in a red lacey dress coming into my hotel room with her hair perfectly curled and minimal makeup as she really does not need it.

"Erm... come by at 6.30, that way we'll
have time to pick an outfit for me." As I finish my sentence I hear a little giggle.

"You mean 'I' have time to pick out an outfit for you." Jo says with the most prettiest smile.

"Don't get ahead of yourself now." I say whilst nudging her arm with my elbow ever so slightly as I don't want to hurt her or come off as too rough.

"But yes, of course I mean you Jo. You know I could never have a good outfit put together without my trusty friend by my side."

I hate calling Jo my friend, we're more than that but something stops me every time I try to bring up the situation. Our connection with have with each other isn't just a friendship connection, there's something there, something bigger.

We continue our journey to the hotel in silence but its nice, I don't mind silence when i'm with Jo, its never awkward and somehow I always feel comfortable whatever situation we are in together.
