꧁ Hero's POV ꧂

I get into Felix house.
Every time I walk in here, it makes me so proud.
I love to see my friends achieving their goals.

"Here you're!" Felix yells coming for a hug.
"Hey sorry if I was late but I had to listen at the whole thing." I say giggling.
"Listen at what?" he asks a bit confused.
"Listening at Josephine's Zoom call with her fans- Oh talking about it ... you knew that she's planning to go back to New York? I have to stop her" I say and I see his guilty eyes.
"Yeah she already told me. She already got tickets for her and Douglas." he says and the blood in my veins stops.
"W-What?" I ask almost chocking.

꧁ Josephine's POV ꧂

I pull up to Douglas house and I'm really scared of his reaction but I really have to take this weight off my chest.

I press the bell and I hear Barry bark.
In few seconds the door opens and I get to see his tired face, his reading glasses on his nose and his massy hair.

When his eyes get hooked on mine I see him getting surprised by my visit.
He steps forward, placed a hand around my hip and kisses me softly on my lips so I place my hands on his cheeks to get closer, I close my eyes and I keep kissing him.

We we both are out of air we step back.
"Oh wow. This was a kiss." he says smiling while I keep thinking that I may not see him again and this is breaking my heart.
I love him. I really do.
Maybe not like I did with Hero but I love Douglas and hurting him would destroy me.
He doesn't deserve this.
"Hey, it's everything alright?" he asks a bit worried about me.
I step inside.
"No." I confess caressing Barry.

I stand up and I turn in his way.
His forehead is frowned and his eyes are looking at me intensely.
"What happened?" he asks and my hands starts to shaking while my mind is trying to make up the phrase.
"Hero and I had a moment of..." the words gets stuck in my throat.
I immediately see his face expression change.
"You and Hero what?" he asks and I can clearly hear that he is already upset and he didn't got to hear what happened yet.

I stay completely in silence, hooked to his rabid eyes and it seems like my voice just got lost.

"Josephine..." he says slowly kinda scared of my silence.
I step forward and without saying s word I hug him. He doesn't hug me back but I take advantage of that moment to smell his perfume and memorize his body. His back, his chest, his arms.

After few seconds he places his hands Jon my shoulders and slowly step back from me.
"What you two did?" he asks and I can see what he is thinking about just looking into his eyes.
"We...We..." I try to say but nothing comes out.
The air in the room seems no more existent.
"We had an intimate moment." I say.
"Define intimate.." he says and I see how much I hurted him.

"He just kissed my neck." I say trying to calm him down.
"You didn't stop him?" he asks.
Did I? The real answer is no.

He interprets my silence.
He nervously brushed his hair with his fingers.
"I didn't react immediately..." I tell him.

He exhaled loudly and then he sits on his couch.
"I'm sorry babe I didn't wanted to this to happen. I'm sorry." I say with the only words that my mind can make up right now.

I sit next to him but not too closer.
I see him with his elbows on his thighs and his face covered by his hands.

"You still love him huh?" he asks without bothering to look me in the eyes.
