Hero's POV:

Returning back to my room after watching Josephine walk away, I pull my shirt and pants off leaving me in my black boxers before heading to the bed. I grab my phone from the side table and reply back to Alex's texts he sent while I was still with Josephine.

Alex: hey mate how is it going? how's the co-star?

Hero: been pretty busy mate

Alex: don't think i didn't notice you not answering my other question. didn't like her or somethin?

Hero: oh no i like her. it's hard not to. Josephine's great, really great

Alex: mhm Josephine is it

Hero: yeah

Alex: what she look like?

Hero: don't be a creep dude

Alex: i ain't. just wanna see the girl you could start to like or already like. i can't tell yet

Hero: where is this coming from? i don't like her like that mate. i just met her

Alex: just got this feeling. but love at first sight can be a thing you know. but keep tellin yourself that dude

Hero: i don't believe in that shit

Alex: maybe you should

Hero: why are we talking about this? i barley know her yet and i've never dated anyone before. i don't plan on starting it now

Alex: i ain't sayin to ask her out tomorrow. just think about your feelings and thoughts towards her while you get to know her better before it's too late

Hero: this deep talk shit is weird

Alex: it shouldn't be. sometimes you need a good talk

Hero: i guess i'll think about it then mate

Alex: you won't but i still haven't gotten my picture

Hero: let me go find one

Alex: please i know you got one in your camera roll

Hero: dude

Alex: beautiful?

Hero: i don't think girls today like being called hot anymore

Alex: mhm. i got this feeling that there's more pictures but i'll let it slide just this once

Hero: oh wow thanks

Alex: no problem mate

I left him on read yet again before setting an alarm and putting my phone back on the side table. Turning to lay on my back, I look at the ceiling before getting lost in my own thoughts.

What the hell is happening to me? Why did we have that deep talk shit? Is what Alex said right? Am I starting to like Jo like that? Or do I already like her like that? How the hell do you even know if you like someone? Especially after only just meeting them. And what's this shit about love at first sight? Can the even happen? How do you know if you're ready to date someone? I've never dated anyone so how am I supposed to know if that could ever work out with Jo? What even happened between the two of us tonight? I don't really smile that much without a reason too yet I just couldn't help but smile whenever I'm around her. She makes me feel comfortable enough to be myself yet also nervous to be around her. Those eyes of hers just draw you in, making you feel like you should never look away. Holding her hand tonight felt. . . right. Her soft delicate hands against my large rough ones made me feel like I should never let them go. Whenever we're having a conversation, I never want her to stop talking. It's like her voice is that one song that you can't stop playing because you like it so much. Everything just feels like it clicks and falls into place ever since I first laid my eyes on her. I don't know what all these fucking feelings and thoughts mean but I better figure this shit out soon.

Fuck, I need to smoke.

Groaning as I get out of bed, I throw on some sweatpants before grabbing my pack of cigarettes and a lighter. Going out to the balcony, I lean against the railing while lighting up a cigarette. As I continue to smoke, I made a mental note to call my mom and talk to her about this shit. When I finally got the thoughts outta my head, I headed back to bed before falling asleep.

I'm startled awake by the sound of my annoying alarm blaring loudly. I rub the remainders of sleep from my eyes and gaze out the screen door that leads to the balcony; it's pitch dark. What the fuck? Shouldn't it be light out? I swear I set that damn alarm for 9:00 am. Rolling over to turn the damn thing off before it annoys me even more, I catch a quick glance at the time.

5:00 am

Why the fuck is it set at 5 fucking am. This stupid phone. I know I set it for 9:00 am. Taking a deep breath, I set another alarm for 9:00 double checking that I got it right before putting it back on the side table.I lay back down in the hopes of being able to fall back asleep.

After laying there for a few minutes, I groan starting to get up knowing that I won't be able to fall back asleep and turn the new alarm I set off. I stretch my arms above my head and yawn as I think of what I could do for the next few hours.

Deciding that I'll head down to the gym to kill a few hours, I walk to my suitcase before rummaging through it for clothes. I throw on a pair of grey sweatpants and a white hoodie that I know I'll be taking off soon before grabbing a pair of sneakers. Grabbing my phone, headphones, room key and a water bottle before heading out of my room. I walk to the elevator thinking if I should do cardio, leg day or arm day.

Opening the door to the gym, I head straight to the treadmill and start running for ten minutes while thinking of what today's gonna look like. After stretching, I decided I'll do my arm day workout routine.

Finishing my workout, I grab my water and chug it while heading back to my room. I grab a set of clothes for the day and head to the shower. After I finished getting ready, I remembered that I wanted to call my mom about my thoughts and feelings.

I grab my phone and just stared at it as I felt a nervous feeling rush over me. I never talked to my mom about my feelings towards a girl so I have no clue what to expect from her. Taking a few deep breaths, I walk out to the balcony as I call my mom.

"hey honey. how is everything going?"

"Mum. . . Can we talk about something."
