After your mini panic attack about your wet dream you decide to accompany Josh for dinner. You rise from your coma like state and creak the door open. You start to head towards the stairs when you hear pots and pans clinking from down below. You smirk at the thought of Josh cooking.
Ever since we were little Josh was so chaotic and all over the place. So... him in the kitchen must be a sight to see. You start to chuckle on your journey down the staircase.
"Hey! What's so funny chuckle head!" Josh shouts from the kitchen.
I walk over to the kitchen island and met eyes with Josh.
"Its funny how theres a bull in a china shop" You jokingly say.
"Well nothing is burnt and the house is not in flames so I think we're doing well so far" Josh says then smirks like the Cheshire cat.
"Well I'm hoping for edible food and that we dont die before the others get here" You teasingly say.
"Oh come on how could I fuck up on eggs and toast darling?" Josh questions. Your face turns turns a light pink, 'Darling?' You thought.
Josh then whips his head over to the stoves direction and strides over to finish up the eggs in the frying pan. You get startled as the toast pops up from its warm chambers. Josh races around the kitchen like a maniac to make sure he keeps his promise of serving edible food for his guest. He pulls the eggs of the pan and plates them. He then foolishly grabs the hot toast with his hands, dropping them onto the plate whilst burning his finger tips clean off.
"Fuck that's hot!" He grunts through gritted teeth. You cant help but giggle. Josh then brings the plates over to the bar area and settles next to you.
"Bon appetit" He says with a stupid grin on his face.
"You remembered my breakfast order?" I say surprisingly.
"How could I forget? Scrambled eggs with tapitio on top and your toast with strawberry jam ontop" Josh rattles off from memory.
"How cute" You say with a smile creeping upon your face.
You grab a seat on the stool next to the bar and plop down upon it. Josh then slides your food over to you, shortly followed by a fork and napkin.
"Why dont you sit down?" You question Josh.
"Nah, I prefer standing. Dont wanna get too sleepy." Josh replies.
"Why didnt you take a nap?" I ask.
"I tried but I couldnt sleep... too much snoring" Josh says.
"Theres absolutely no way I snore!" I challenge Josh. I then pick up my toast and crunch down upon it. The bread was perfectly toasted and the jam was so sweet! Just the way I like it!
"I'm kidding sleeping beauty, I just am a little nervous. I dont know why but having everyone here, cant really tell what's gonna happen. I dont know..." Josh blurts his concerns to you.
"What makes you nervous?" I inquire.
"No parents around... me in a cabin with a bunch of minors... it's just weird now that I'm in college.." Josh replies.
"Well, I'm sorry you feel that way. Just know we are all here to have a good time! And so what if you're too cool for us now that you're in the big leagues! Your sisters are here... I'm here... theres nothing to he weirded out about. We've all known each other since we were little!" I assure Josh.
"Thanks but I still feel weird..." Josh mutters.
"Never mind that! Let's eat and maybe we can talk about this by the fire, I'm a little freeze baby!" I say.
Josh then grabs a fork and basically shovels his food into his mouth. He's always so frantic with things... even eating. While I'm still working on my gourmet meal I watch Josh zoom around the kitchen. Loading the dishwasher, wiping down the counters, putting the ingredients back to their homes. Josh then races over to the fire place and turns to nosal on.
"Its gonna take a couple minutes to warm up but you should thaw soon enough!" Josh jokes.
I let out a small chuckle and walk over to the pit. Its already pretty warm just standing a foot away. I then crouch down so I'm laying on the rug next to the fireplace. I stare at the fire as it dances. It's so beautiful... seeing such bright colors.
You then suddenly feel a hand resting upon your shoulder. You were so mesmerized by the fire you didnt notice Josh joined you on the floor.
"You warming up now?" Josh asks.
"Oh... yes.. its wonderful. Thank you" You stammer out.
Josh then moves his hand from your shoulder to a strand of loose hair that was swaying at its own free will. Josh then tucked it behind your ear and his finger tips trailed down your jawline.
"This fire is almost as beautiful as you" Josh states.
You blush immensely and turn away from him for a second.
"I dont know what I'm doing..." Josh whispers.
Josh then uses his fingers to tilt your head back in his direction.
"May... I kiss..you?" Josh stutters out.
Your mouth opens slightly, shocked those words escaped from his. You meekly shake your head up and down.
Josh then leans in and his lips match yours. It lasted only a few seconds but those were the best seconds of your life! Josh then pulls away from you and shakes his head.
"I shouldn't start something I cant finish" Josh states firmly. Josh then quickly stands up and heads to his bedroom.
You're left there, speechless. Next to this beautiful fire.
"Dont be afraid", You whisper quietly to yourself as you let one tear slip from your bright eyes down your soft cheek.
