Different Worlds-Joshifer

I’ve missed Josh so much; I haven’t seen him in at least 3 months. 3 months is a long time to be away from your best friend, the person you tell everything to. Sure we’ve texted almost every day and skyped a few times, but it’s just not the same.

Today is the day we start filming Mockingjay, the day I get to finally see Josh. I arrive on set excited to see the entire cast again. I see Jena and Sam at the table and decide to go and join them.

“Hey guys.” I shout whilst walking over to them.

“Hey Jen, did you have a good break?” says Sam, getting up to hug me.

“Yeah, it was good thanks, has anyone seen Josh today?” I say, a little too enthusiastically.

“He’s in his trailer; I’ve heard he’s missed you.” Sam said with a slight smile.

I start running towards our trailer, trying to avoid drawing too much attention to myself. The last thing I want is me and Josh being interrupted. I slowly open the door to our trailer to find him standing there. His perfectly toned body, his highlighted hair, his broad shoulders, everything about him entices me. As I carefully shut the door, he turns around. My eyes immediately focus on him. His hazel eyes lock with mine, they always seem to mesmerise me. Some days I’m so sure they’re green but others they’re a soft, comforting brown. I can’t stand it any longer; I run up to him and leap into his arms. I cling to his plain, white t-shirt so tight, taking in the familiar scent of his clothes. I can feel the warmth of his body against mine, a feeling I’ve been longing for.

“Hi” he says, the tone of his voice sends a shiver down my spine.

“Hi” I reply.

“I’ve missed you so much, you have no idea.”

“Oh, I can assure you I do.”

We stand for a moment in silence, still holding his body against mine.

“How’s Nick?” Josh says breaking the silence.

“He’s fine; he’s in London at the minute.” I say, sharply.

It’s not unusual for Nick to be away, but something feels different this time. I don’t miss him like I used to, recently we’ve just become so distant. I love him, I know I do, but ever since we had a huge argument a few months ago, something’s changed. Next week he’s coming back to LA for 2 weeks, so that will give us plenty of time to talk and sort this out. Until then I’m going to spend as much time as possible with Josh, since I know Nick isn’t too impressed with me seeing Josh more than I do him so there won’t be much time for that when he’s back.

“Are you sure?” Josh says

“Yes, me and Nick are fine, can we just stop talking about it.” I suddenly snap at him.

He knows not to push me, so he doesn’t say anything else about the situation.

Francis calls the cast onto the set. We shoot for a few hours until Francis shouts cut. Finally it’s time to go home.

“Jen!” I easily recognise that voice, I turn around to see Josh waving for me to go over to him.

“Hey, what’s up?”

“Do you want to come round to mine tonight? I’ve even got some Ben & Jerry’s ice cream in the freezer.”

“You’ve got me sold Hutch, I’ll be round at 7.”

The drive to Josh’s is only 10 minutes. Before I know it I’m pulling onto his driveway in my slippers and baggy t-shirt. I know he doesn’t care what I look like, so I didn’t make an effort. I climb out of my car and walk up to the door. I knock on the door, and within seconds Josh appears and pulls me inside. He greets me with a warm embrace, one that makes me feel safe, and loved. I pull away just before the hug becomes awkward.

“So, what are we watching tonight then?” I say.

“How about Keeping up with the Kardashians, I know how much you like that” Josh teases.

I punch him likely on the arm. “Fuck you; I can’t believe I admitted that.”

I walk straight in and flop on the couch. That’s one thing I love about Josh’s house, it feels like home. He walks straight into the kitchen and grabs two beers out the fridge. I can’t help but stare at his perfectly toned muscular back. When he returns I switch on the TV, and find Dear John is on, which is one of my favourite films. Before long Josh has his arm around me and we’re snuggling on the couch. Other people might find it weird, since were both seeing different people, but it works for us. I start drifting to sleep about halfway through the film, resting on Josh’s chest. Suddenly Josh picks me up and carries me into his room.

“Josh, I don’t have to stay if you don’t want me to.” I say.

“I want you to, I’ll fetch you a t-shirt to sleep in and I’ll stay on the couch.”

“Thank you” I say quietly.

He tosses me one of his t-shirts from a pile of clothes, and I slip it on when he’s not watching. It smells just like him, the familiar scent of him comes flooding back. It only takes a few minutes for me to fall asleep, just knowing that I’m close to my best friend again is all I need to feel safe.

Hey guys, this is my first Fanfic, so give me feedback, I'll love to know what you guys think.~Laura
