Behind the End - Herophine

3

I arrived in London, I came back to my house, I was really missing everyone, my family, my dog ​​Diesel, friends, my room, being here again seemed crazy after living in the "world of After" for days, but... I'm back!

I threw my bags on the floor and lay on my bed, and let all the weight of my body sink there. My mom had already kneaded me, and my brothers had also already huged me, and said a "Hello", I ate some delicious foods that were ready for my arrival, and finally, I was alone to be able to find out about the news from the real world.

The first post I see on Instagram was Anna with her makeup artist, Trace, on the plane returning to Los Angeles. I rolled over a little more and saw a post by Roger Kumble, our director, an incredible guy who knew how to direct the movie perfectly and treated everyone very well, with a lot of responsibility and laughter. He posted some pictures on the set and thanked for everything. The sensation came back: Roger reminded me of the whole experience I had during the shootings. Especially with her...

I quickly thought of the first thing that usually cheers me up, go out with my friends. I took out my cell phone and sent a message to our group: M-BOYZ, I told them that I had come back and that I needed to go out, eat a lot and get drunk, who knows, maybe pick up some girls... Hmm...

My friends are like my second family, we count on each other for everything, and whatever I can do to help them in any situation, I will do. In the group are: Felix, Alex, Miriam, Zac, Jack, Noah, Valand, Hamm, Ali, Elify, Morgz and Ollie. We had a lot of crazy moments together, I owe them a lot, they are my guys.

In the group, everyone welcomed me and only three of them could go with me to a restaurant close to home at that moment, but we will go out at night with all the guys. I decided to call Alex, since he was one of those who couldn't make it see me now. Alex is a great friend, one of the closest in the group:

"Hero?"

"Hey dude!"

"How much time!"

"Five weeks only."

"And how was it? Did the movie go well there? Did you kiss a lot?"

I laughed when Alex asked that question.

"You have no idea."

"JEEZ! You will have to tell me everything!"

"Aren't you going to be able to go there with us?"

"Now it won't happen, brother, I'm working out some things here... But if I can stop by, I'll let you know..."

"Okay. But see you at the pub at night, right?"

"For sure!"

As soon as we hung up I got ready to meet the guys, Alex told me that nothing had changed, only that he met some girls and that he missed me in the "hunt" at the parties we are going to. I laughed at him telling about the parties they gave and how they got drunk and crazy at each outing, a month for M-BOYZ is lived as if it was a year! I missed them so much.

We met in a restaurant that had several types of snacks, I was hungry, as always, getting there, I hugged my friends and after we sat down I told everything that happened in Atlanta, about the movie, about Jô, about us, without lots of details, of course...

"And that was it... We didn't know what to do... We decided to continue like this, so now I want to score."

"I like this Hero, nothing against the other, but Hero in love doesn't suit you!"

They know exactly what to say to me.

"I have to meet this Jô."

"Shut up!" I said rolling my eyes.

"But wait, did you guys stay out of the movie together, and she didn't want anything to do with you after you finished shooting?"

"She was afraid when I returned to London and she went to Australia..."

"I understand, so it was like a summer vacation, you stayed and enjoyed it as much as you could and then... Bye bye?"

"Yeah... Kind of..."

"...Kind of?"

"It's just that I kind of said the forbidden word to her before I left..."

The table is silent for a few seconds, then one of them breathes and screams:

"No! You don't speak the forbidden word for any pair of breasts you see!"

"Jô is not just any pair of breasts, she is the whole body, the eyes, the mouth..."

They stare at me.

"But she doesn't want anything to do with you, Hero? Who says 'no' to my boy!"

"She kind of understood that I didn't want anything... Oh I don't know, it was very strange and confusing... In the end I was almost begging her to come with me to London and then I realized that I shouldn't be doing that..."

"JEEZ! So the case was really serious..."

I nodded, everyone looked shocked.

"OK dude, pub tonight, let's get drunk and smoke a lot, to score some girls and forget about Jô, okay?"

We tapped our drinks as if we were closing a deal, but I knew it would be impossible... There is no way to forget Jô.
