Alone Together

Chapter 1

"Josh! Josh! Look to your right!" Josh obeyed the reporter's command and looked to the right, putting a smile on his face. Cameras flashed until he got a command to make a different face. He has never enjoyed the photo shoots before press; it was too hectic and his eyes always hurt later on from all the flashing. It always felt awkward doing photo shoots though, no matter what.

After what felt like hours of photo taking he was beckoned into the building. Just as he got to the doors, he felt a hand on his shoulder holding him back. He glanced behind him to see Jennifer smiling down on him. She was about a foot taller than him wearing her glossy heels.

"Hey," she said, out of breath. "I hate photo shoots." They continued walking in and were directed in an auditorium with just enough seats on the stage for Jen, Liam, Sam, Jena, Francis, a speaker, and himself. He sat down on the end seat and luckily Jen was seated next to him. He looked out at the audience and readied himself for the first interview for Mockingjay: Part 1.

"My question's for Josh and Jennifer." A teenage girl with a squeaky voice from the crowd declared, about a half hour into the interview. "How has the chemistry been between you two?"

Josh knew this question would come up. He answered the question as non-seriously as he could. "Well we haven't seen each other much since filming wrapped, so we have to get warmed up. We don't like each other much," he finished. A chuckled erupted from the full auditorium because everyone knew that wasn't true. But, to be honest, Josh didn't know what their chemistry would be like now that they would be spending more time with each other. With Jen's busy schedule, he didn't want to stress her out more by trying to make plans so they really haven't talked much. He knew they would probably become best buddies again very soon, but it would be kind of awkward since he's "dating" Claudia. He didn't like her in that way, and she just wanted to pretend they were dating so she could get noticed and maybe get some auditions. He was fine with helping her, she was a nice girl. Besides, it wasn't an official relationship or anything, they never kiss or hold hands; people just think that they're dating. He doesn't want to keep her little plan going much longer though. He glanced at Jen once all these thoughts ran through his mind.

COMMENT YOUR OPINION! BY THE WAY, IN THIS STORY JEN WON'T BE DATING CHRIS MARTIN.
