After the so-called performance, I found myself cuddled up next to Josh, watching our favorite TV show Once Upon a Time. Season 3. We decided to re-watch the series. "Hey, Josh?" I looked up at him. "Hey, Amanda?" He responded.
"Were acting to good at this relationship thingy." I looked back the TV. "I guess we are." He rubbed my shoulder. "Maybe its a good thing."
'Maybe its a good thing.'
That rang in my head for a while. What if I actually liked Josh? What if he liked me? What if this wasn't acting? I mean, the position felt comfortable, all most as if we have done it before. We weren't as touchy-feely with each other before the act happened. Now we cant keep our hands off of each other.
"Serious question Amanda." Josh broke the silence. "Are you acting or is this real?"
Is this real?
"I don't know, honesty." I looked at him. He looked back. His pupils dilated. He sighed, "Same situation with me. I guess." I turned back to the TV but he continued to stare for a good five seconds before looking away.
My twitter blew up after the 'news' was sent out. It was good, people were believing. The best thing was, there were false sightings of us in the city doing couple things. It did feel like a real relationship in my heart, but I knew it wasn't actually there.
I yawned as Josh loosened his grip around me. "You tired?" He was obviously upset and concerned. I nodded, crooking my face in his neck. He smiled, and continued watching the show. The placement of my body was comfortable and warm. Almost as if I could stay there for the rest of my life.
"Goodnight." I whispered. "G'night." He responded.
"I love you." Was said.
Small, but audible.
Comforting.
"I love you too."
