"Olivia, your father and I are going out for breakfast and I just wanted to- Oh" I fly up into a sitting position after waking up from my mom's voice. "Mom it's not what it looks like. We only fell asleep" I try to make her understand. "Okay" She has a smile on her lips. "Mom seriously" Josh was awake by now. "I believe you. But either way, you're old enough. Anyway, we're going out to breakfast and just wanted to let you two know" She closes my door with a smirk on her face. I was in a t-shirt and underwear, while Josh was in only his boxers. "She thinks we had sex" I mumble, lying back down. "But we didn't" He says quietly "I know. And why don't I have pants on anymore?" I ask confused. "You mumbled something about being hot and before I know it you're flinging them across the room." I giggle at the way he says that "Wow" I roll my eyes and turn on my side to face him. "Guess what" He says with a smirk "What?" I ask "You snore" My cheeks heat up "I do not" I cover my face with my hands as I hear him laugh. "Yes you do and it's adorable. You clung to me all night and all I heard was you snoring" He kisses my forehead gently "Shut up" I mumble sitting up to get away from him. "Don't leave me" He whines "Awe, is the baby going to miss me?" I smirk looking back at him "I don't have to miss you because you're not going anywhere" He reaches forward and grabs my hips, pulling down onto my back. He climbs on top of me and straddles my hips. "Josh, don't you dare." He just smirks before tickling my sides. I couldn't help the laughter erupting from me. I was practically crying the whole time he ran his fingers up and down my sides. "Are you going to apologize?" He asks "For what?" I say in between giggles "For leaving me" "Fine, I'm sorry" I barely get it out. Automatically, his hands stop moving. I open my watering eyes and see him only a few inches above my face. "You have beautiful eyes" I blurt. "And you are beautiful" I feel my cheeks heat up. "You're even more beautiful when you blush" I roll my eyes but can't help the huge grin plastered on my face. His stare intensifies as he comes closer to me. My heart thumps against my chest at a rapid pace. A few seconds later, his lips were planted on mine. My brain didn't know how to act at first until my heart took over. My lips moved against his slowly at first, before speeding up. His lips felt amazing against mine. It was almost as if we were transported into another world. As cliché as that sounds, it's true. I felt safe in his arms as if nothing could ever hurt me and his lips made me feel good about myself. I don't know how much time passed, but when he pulled away our ragged breath was all that could be heard. "That was" He trails off, eyes wide "Amazing" I finish for him. That was the first time he has ever kissed me on the lips. Josh sits up and I watch as his muscles tighten as he does so. "How about some breakfast?"

"So guess what" He says, sounding almost sad. "What" I say, pushing the rest of my eggs around my plate. "You know how I play the drums?" I nod my head, watching as he rubs the back of his neck. "Well I'm in a band" I nod my head "Okay?" I say, confused. "A pretty popular band called Twenty One Pilots" I nod my head, not sure where he's going with this "I don't want you to be mad at me, I need you to promise" I nod my head again "I promise. Just tell me" He takes a deep, shaky breath. "My band member, Tyler, informed me that we have a tour starting in about a month. I didn't want to tell you because I didn't know where we would be in a month, but I think things are looking up for us, whatever you want us to be" I bite my lip as he continues "We will be travelling the world Olivia. I won't be able to see you often but I want you to know, I will do everything I can to see you as often as possible. I don't know if you even want to be with me, but if you do, I can promise you I will pay whatever the prices are to fly to you." He grabs my hand and I feel a tear roll down my cheek. "Why are you crying?" He asks, getting worried. "I don't know. I honestly don't know" I say, as the tears fall faster now. Josh comes around the table to my side and picks me up in a hug. I wrap my arms around his neck and I feel him walking us into the living room. He sits on the couch and places me in his lap. "Are you crying because of what I said?" he asks. "Maybe? I feel like now that I have something good in my life, it's being ripped away. And I know I sound selfish because this is your career and you're talented and you may not even want to be with me but the thought of you not being with me scares me" "I can assure you, I want to be with you. And I'm not being ripped away. I will be with you as often as I can. And why does it scare you?" he rubs my back gently. "Because Josh. You were able to calm me down last night. My parents and I don't even know how to do that. Every panic attack I have goes until I work myself up enough to pass out. And that was the first good night sleep I've had in months." I watch as his face falls into sadness. "I don't want to make you choose between me or your best friend and career. I hate that. I want you to be happy and go tour the world. And if that means leaving me behind then so be it" I run my fingers through his hair while using my other hand to wipe away my tears. I sound so selfish right now. "Listen to me. We still have a month to figure things out, okay? Who knows, you might not even want to be with me in a month" I cup his face in my hands. "Believe me, I want you in my life" His lips turn up into a smile. I gently peck his lips. "I just felt bad withholding information from you so I told you" I nod my head understandingly. "So now that's out of the way, want to watch a movie?"
