Penelope's POV

The rest of the day is long and frustrating, mostly because I don't  see Josie much but I can't stop thinking about her. Although it was my  plan to tease her, it looks like I lost because she got to come twice  and I got to see perhaps the hottest and sexiest thing without relieving  the building tension inside of me.

Josie 1.

Penelope 0.

When  classes are finally over, I lay in my room, and I guess Josie makes me  have no self-control because I am touching myself in a matter of  seconds. I come with Josie's name on my lips, and I don't even feel  ashamed. 

I am sitting in my bed bored, debating on going to see  MG or Hope when I realize something. I don't have Josie's number. We  have had our tongues inside each other and yet, we do not have each  other's phone numbers.

Before I can even think straight, I speed  walking to Josie's room. I quickly knock on the door and sadly I am met  with the wrong twin's annoyed face.

I don't even give her a second to  speak before I look around her shoulder attempting to find Josie. Funny  that Lizzie answers the door, assuming that it is for her.

I find  Josie sitting on her bed reading a book that I can't quite make out. A  warm smile graces my face, and I just can't help but feel warmness  inside of me. Josie is just too cute.

Lizzie looks like she is  going to say some snarky remark but before I even let her get the  chance, I push past her and walk towards Josie.

"Hey Jojo," I say and I am not amused that I sound kind of breathless. Really Penelope?

Lizzie  mumbles something that has the words Satan and rude in it but I pay no  attention. I am too focused on my Josie. Well, she really isn't mine,  but you know what I mean.

Josie looks up from her book, she looks pleased to see me but more confused than anything.

She gives me a shy 'hi' and all I want to do is kiss her forehead. She really is killing me.

I  look back at Lizzie, giving her daggers to leave the room but she just  stares back at me, challenging me, and honestly, I just don't want to  ruin my mood with a Lizzie fight. Not worth it anymore.

I huff in  annoyance before reaching my hand out for Josie asking her to give me  her phone. She reluctantly hands over her phone, and I quickly go into  iMessage. Typing in my number is like second nature to me because I have  given it out so many times, but the contact I put is different.

I  change it to Pen, which I really don't allow anyone to call me but  Josie is an exception. I go to include a heart but I feel like that is  too much too soon. Or maybe it is just too honest and telling, which I  may or may not be too afraid to share just yet. Or ever. I settle with  the safer option of the fire emoji and the smirking face.

I type a text message, 'Want to come back to my room?'

To  be honest, I am too big of a coward to ask out loud. Fear of rejection.  But also, I know if I asked Josie when Lizzie was around, Lizzie would  come up with some excuse as to why Josie was busy or something.

With  an uncharacteristic nervous smile, I hand the phone back to Josie. When  she reads the message she fashions an adorable smile. God, I really  need her alone.

She then looks back at her phone, thinking for a  second before typing a response. I feel my phone buzz in my pocket, and I  am too eager to check it. I whip it out to see her response.
