Josh's POV

I was sitting in the kitchen going through my photos I took the last couple of days, when I heard Simon behind be. He peeked over my shoulder looking at my camera.

" Is that?  Is that me?" He asked amazed.

I hummed in response and continued doing what I was doing earlier.

" Wait, can I see it properly?"

"Yeah, right." I went back to that photo and gave my camera to him.

" Wow. This is... Amazing." He looked at me with puppy eyes. " Can you send this to me, so I can put it on Instagram?"

" Sure thing." I smiled at him and he hugged me from behind.

That was unexpected. I'm not complaining tho.

" Thanks Joshy. Why did you take it by the way?"

I had to think of a resoning answer, so it wouldn't look like I'm a creep or even worse,  a stalker of my own friend.

" I... Well, you know that I like to take pictures of things that I find interesting or beautiful. The landscape was mesmerizing. So was the model..." He tried to hide his face in his hands, but I could clearly see it was  almost as red as his hair.

Wait. He is blushing. That has to mean something right?

" I bet you had a loads of Freya" He smiled weakly at me." Do you have more of me?

I realised something. I din't take any pictures of Freya without her asking me to do so.

" Actually... I think there are some more of you, but on my other memory card." He still had my camera, looking through my other pics.

" Why did you stop photograpy?"

" Because I didn't feel motivated at all. You know we never leave the house, so there was no point even trying. "

" Fair enough."

We just sat in silence, both thinking.

"Why did you start doing it again all of a sudden?"

I can't tell you the real.reason. Come on Josh don't be a wimp! I can tell the first part, that won't ruin our friendship"

" When we used to play Pokemon Go, and actually left the house, I got inspired again.I forgot how good it felt when I got the perfect shot of something. "

Or someone.

" I'm glad you came back in the "business"."

That smile...  Those dimples. Fuck it. Here goes nothing.

" Simon will you..." His phone interrupted my question.

" Sorry, I have to pick it up. Don't forget what you wanted!" He left the kitchen with that. I don't know what to do if he comes back tho.

" I'm sorry again, it was my mum. So what did you want to ask me?"

I can't.

" Oh, I was just wondering if you needed something from Tesco's. I'm going tomorrow, cause I'm low on Dr. Pepper."

" I thought it was something more serious... I don't think I need anything.   Thanks for asking anyways"

Is he dissappointed? No I'm just making things up.

" I have to make some vids for tomorrow.  Good night Josh."

" Good night Si."

I wish I could tell you.

Short one I know,  but I'm planning to do a second part of this,  where Josh mans up and asks Simon out.

Let me know if you want it😊
