Jasper's POV
  "Oh Jasper! A letter from your boy!" My roommate Charlie said in a sing song voice as he walked into our room. He was carrying our mail and was followed by our friend Travis. I stood up and hurried over, taking the letter from him. Josh liked writing the letters along with FaceTime. He said he likes being able to have something that I physically had. It seems more real than seeing my face on a screen. Which I don't blame him. I love getting his letters and sending him some. I sat back on my bed and quickly opened the envelope. The letter read,
'Hey Jasper!
It's finally summer and nice and warm here in Greene! Im so happy that school is finally over. Seb and I are on our way to becoming seniors and I can't wait! We are almost out of this school but that just means I need to start applying to go to a bigger more expensive one. I definitely want to stay in New York, hopefully somewhere  close to Greene. I'm still trying to finalize my major. I'm between physical therapist and teacher right now but I think I'm leaning more towards physical therapist. What do you think? I know you're going to say I should join the military but can you really imagine me going through boot camp? No. I'll leave that to you baby. I've been missing you a lot recently but I know you'll be back soon to hold me in your arms the way you know I love. I can't wait for you to be back. I want you back. On a happy note, Sebastian and I did a little photo shoot the other day. As you know, Sebastian is good with a camera, and I'm good as a model apparently. There's a picture included in this letter. You can see more when you come home. I love you to the moon, and the stars, and everything beyond Jasper.

Love,
Josh

I reached back into the envelope and pulled out the small photo. My heart nearly stopped. Oh. My. God. My Joshy looks so much older and i haven't been able to tell over face time. Not only that. The position he was in...oh. My. God. Times two.

  "Ready for your modeling breakthrough?!" Sebastian yelled as he strutted through my front door.

"As soon as you pick out something for me to wear!" I said in the same excited voice he used.

"Oh don't you worry. I went shopping for you." He said throwing a bag at me. "Go put it on and come out." He shooed me away. I went into my room and quickly changed before looking in the mirror.

  "Oh my god." I whispered under my breath with a smile. He got me jean short shorts. Freaking booty shorts, and a black crop top. What the actual fuck? I walked out of my room shaking my head.

  "Oooh you lookin sexy." He squealed and walked around me. "Let's go! We need a brick wall." He said grabbing my hand and pulling me out the door. We walked down the sidewalk, camera in one hand, and mine in the other. He skipped along as he talked about him and Mike.

"When Jasper comes back we are totally going on double dates." He said swinging our arms back and forth.

"Obviously. You're going to be sick of us." I smiled. He rolled his eyes.

"I could never be sick of you boo." It was my turn to roll his eyes as we got to his house. The whole back of his house was brick, meaning perfect background for artsy pictures. Good thing his parents weren't home because I knew he had something strangely sexual planned. Luckily I have no shame and nothing would be embarrassing to me.

"How do you want me to start?" I asked bending and hitting the wall with my hands, sticking my ass out.

"Perfect." He laughed and snapped a few pictures. I looked back and bit my bottom lip as I slowly went down to a squat. I broke into a laugh, not able to keep a straight face. "That's good." I continued to go through different poses, not always able to contain my laughter.
