Behind the Scenes - Herophine

36

They were all there! I never imagined they would do something for me. In the room were Anna, Hero, Jen and Roger, I thought they were busy working out their things, they didn't even mention anything to me, if we were going to celebrate my birthday together... Now I understood why.

Hero held a cake, he was very funny, and Anna tried to light the candle, while Roger, Jen and Shane, who ran into my room after tricked me, shouted and sang congratulations to me, I felt very loved. When it arrived at the part of "make a wish Jô!" 

"Jô wishes something you want very much and if it is related to our film it is even better... Just kidding! Wish what you want, but if you want something for the film... You know..." 

Anna said and I laughed at her comment, I walked over to the cake, which Hero was still holding, so I looked at him and he at me, his face was fixed on mine and we looked at each other even more, I couldn't look anywhere else, Hero was wearing a cap and with a sweatshirt. I closed my eyes and made a wish, at that moment I hadn't really thought about what I wanted, I wished it all worked out in the movie, and that I was happy, something like that, I opened my eyes and realized Hero's eyes still staring at me, I shivered when did this happen. And then, after cutting the cake, we sat on the floor to talk, we spent the night like that.

Shane told me that Anna wanted to surprise me and everyone agreed that he should deceive me, everyone knows that we spent hours talking:

"We spent the whole day walking around for them to get organized..."

"I loved it! I loved everything, thank you so much! You are amazing, a second family for me, really!"

We talked for a few more hours and as it was late, almost three in the morning, we decided to sleep, Roger, Shane and Jen had already said goodbye and left for their accommodations, staying in the room Anna, Hero and I only.

"Okay, everything is wonderful but... I'm going..." Anna gets up, takes one last snack and before leaving she says:

"Try not to stay awake long, huh, you both need to rest."

When Anna left, I got up from the floor and went to get a candy, I tried not to think that Hero was right there on the floor, leaning on his arms, with that little smile in the corner of his face and those clear eyes focused on me. I ate the candy very calmly, without looking at him, and then he smiling, said:

"So, did you like your party?"

"I loved!"

"Did you like that we came here?"

I nodded, not even thinking straight about the questions he was asking me, I don't know if he was tired or he is being him, acting strangely... He was calmer, more relaxed, I didn't know how to define. He got up and got closer to me, I was still eating my sweetie and I looked at him the same way he did.

"Did you like that I came?" He asked again, at that moment I furrowed my brow, understanding where he was going, but now I won't let myself be carried away by his charm... Or at least I'll try...

"Do you want some candy? It's delicious!" I quickly grabbed one of the candies on the table next to my bed and put it in his mouth, a great excuse to get out of that position, and he laughed at the situation, he knew what he was doing to me... Then he approached again:

"Hero, don't screw my head! I don't understand what you want anymore!"

"I want you."

"But when we were fine, you walked away..."

"Is just... Jô..."

"Don't say that you are complicated that I no longer accept that explanation... You are my friend first of all, you can trust me!"

"Jô I..." Hero sat on the bed, and was silent for a while, thinking. "There's someone in London..."

That information, which I didn't even know completely what it was, already got a lump in my throat... What does he mean? Has he a girlfriend? A girl in London?
