ℋero's pov

Here I am in Italy at the Maserati headquarters in Modena.
This trip was something unexpected that's why I didn't told anything about this to Josephine earlier .
I mean we are not a couple but something inside of me says that I should inform her about what I do.

After that night at her house I tried to reach to her but she didn't answer my texts.
I wanted to go to her house that night to ask her what's wrong with her but the company call came in and right after I was on a plane.

I would have loved to come here with her.
Since she's a romantic one I could have take her to Verona where there is the house of Romeo and Giulietta.

Man I'm not even in a relationship with her and I'm already planning to take her to Italy.

"Hello?" I hear Emma's voice.
"Hey." I tell her clearing my throat.
"Where the hell are you?" she asks maybe because of the noise in the background.
"I'm on the plane." I tell her taking a sip of my apple juice.
"You're coming back this early?" she asks pretty surprised.
"Yeah, they just needed me for one day and I can't stop thinking about Josephine not answering my texts." I say ands my voice tightens.
"What the hell is going on with her? Is she mad at me or just busy?" I ask her kinda frustrated.
I hear Emma sigh.
"Listen Hero, you're my boyfriend best friend and you mean a lot to me too but she's my best friend and I can broke her trust on me." she says softening her voice.
"You have to ask her. Also because I tried to ask her and she didn't wanted to talk about it." she says in a frank tone.

So something happened.

So the first thing that I do is go home change to something comfy and then drive to Josephine's apartment.
I have to give my head a rest.
I kept thinking and texting to her begging her to answer my texts.
I even tried to dm her on instagram.

I walk into the building, go up and get to her door the soon as possible.
The thought of see her after 3 days drives me insane.
I'm not ready to stare at her pretty face.
I knock and I tremble. I'm nervous and I don't know why.
I knock for the second time since the door is still closed.
Is she maybe taking a shower or listening some music?
Then I press the bell multiple times but anything happens.

Nobody is at home and it's nine o'clock, there's no way Josephine still working.
Emma isn't home either bug I know where find her.

So I take my car and drive to Jackson's where surprise surprise... I find Emma.

"Man what are you doing here?" Jackson asks coming for a hug.
I hug him since I missed him too.
"I'm here to talk to Emma." I tell him.
"Now you hurt my ego." Jackson says acting hurt placing a hand on his chest.
I look at Emma and she stares at me already panicking inside while I keep wondering where the hell is the blonde girl.
"I went to the apartment but nobody is there." I say to Emma and she runs her hands through her short brunette hair.
"What the hell is going on between you and Josephine?" Jackson asks.
Ah good question.
"Nothing since your friend is such an asshole!" Emma says finally letting out something from her mouth.
I look at her face and she's frowning deeply.
She's mad. She's mad at me.
"Asshole? Man what you did to Jo?" Jackson asks looking at me in a judgemental way.
"Nothing! Literally nothing! We were good before I left for Modena..." I say so frustrated running my fingers through my eyebrow wug I'll they reach my temples.
"I thought you really liked her." Emma says and I look up at her and her eyes spread so disappointment that my throat just closes.
"I do like her. That's why I didn't left the beach house that night and that's why I asked you advices to get more close to her!" I tell her.
