~Stephanie's P.o.V.~
As Josh and I walked down the street, I couldn't help but wonder. If I hadn't fallen asleep last night, I would have not remembered my first. I was going to have sex with my now ex, Mason, as a kind of 'happy one year anniversary' present. But I guess my now ex best friend, Ashley (not Halsey), would give him that. She had always been so easy, even in high school.
Before I knew it, we were at a random bar. The waitress came over to take our order,
"So, what'll it be kids?" She asked in a raspy voice.
"Vodka-RedBull" I blurted out. Josh looked at me with a shocking face.
"Make that two" he said, grinning. We sat in an uncomfortable silence until the waitress came back with our drinks.
"So, this ex of yours, why did you breakup?" Josh asked, trying to break the ice. I had already downed my drink, and was feeling a little buzz.
"I don't know" I started. "Probably because I wouldn't have sex with him" I said, giggling.
"Wow your a light weight" Josh said chuckling at the fact that I was already drunk.
"Have you ever..." Josh started, hinting at something.
"Had sex? Nah, I've been waiting for the right guy, something about trust and blah blah blah." I said, requesting a refill.
"So last night, if we did...well, do it, I would have been your first?" Josh asked.
"I guess so, wouldn't that be something?" I said.
"What do you mean? Josh asked. Oh no, word vomit. I was hoping I could have saved this for later, but I couldn't stop myself.
"Oh, when I was a teenager, I was sooooo obsessed with you. I was always like 'Josh this, Josh that'. It was so bad to the point were someone could say the name Josh, and my friends would groan, thinking I would start taking about you." I spilled all over the place. I didn't know what Josh would say.
"Hahaha, that's pretty funny. Why didn't you tell me you knew who I was?" Josh asked, laughing so loud people started to look at us, mostly him.
"Because I didn't want you to think I only liked you for the fame, because I really like you, like a lot" I said, downing my second drink, and the rest of Josh's. Why couldn't I stop talking. My brain was saying no, but my mouth was saying yes.
"Okay, i think you've had enough" Josh said. Josh paid for our drinks, and we started to walk home.
Josh let me spend the night again, saying he didn't want me to be alone and this drunk. I slept for a while until I hear Josh's phone ring. Josh quickly took his phone into the living room. I was confused as to how I ended up in Josh's bed again. This time I had clothes on, but not my clothes. I was wearing Josh's favorite NASA shirt as a dress. Josh came back into the room.
"Oh, your up" he said with a slight smirk on his face.
"Yeah, what happened last night?" I asked, rubbing my throbbing head.
"You got drunk, very drunk." Josh said, trying to hide a smile.
"Why am I here?" I asked.
"You were fine until we got into the elevator, then you passed out, so I took you here" Josh said, unable to hold back the smile.
"My head hurts" I said tearing up at how bad it hurt.
"Try taking some aspirin, then take a shower, while chewing gum." Josh suggested. "It's weird bit it works."
I got up of the bed, slowly walking to the door. I stopped in the middle of the hallway,
"Oh, Josh here's your shirt back" I said, starting to take it off in the middle of the hallway. Josh's eyes widened.
"No no no no no!!" Josh screamed, rushing towards me, pulling the shirt lowering, as to not reveal anything. I chuckled slightly, forgetting I was in my hallway. I tried to open my door, not taking my eyes away from Josh's eyes. The door handle didn't turn. I broke my gaze, as I tried to turn it again. My keys. They are inside my apartment.
"Fuck..." I muttered under my breath.
"What?" Josh asked.
"I'm locked out" I said with my head in my hands.
"You can stay with me for a few days, if you want" Josh offered.
"Yeah, thanks Josh" I said smiling, walking back to Josh's apartment. I sat on Josh's couch as he quickly joined me.
"So my practice got cancelled today" Josh started. "Wanna go do something?" Josh asked, biting his lower lip nervously. My insides were on fire. Josh Dun wants to hang out with me today. Not just hang out with me, go on a date? Was this a date?
"Yes" I answered before the silence was too long.
