We've all heard the song, but what thoughts were swirling around unsaid as they put pen to paper? Find out in the following story. Warning: content will be angsty and adorable ; )
i fell in love, with the only girl who know what i'm about.
Matt, Josh and Olivia were sitting in Matt's apartment, having just got pizza and fries delivered. Matt flipped open the box and put a few slices onto Josh's plate, which he accepted in silence.
"It's mushrooms" Olivia said nonchalantly while taking a fry.
"What?" Matt asked in confusion,
"Josh doesn't like mushrooms." She replied as if it was nothing, Matt uttered a small
"Oh" in defeat. "Why didn't you say anything man?" Josh shrugged awkardly in response.
"He didn't want to be an imposition" Olivia explained, then turned to Josh with her patented smile reserved for him, "Which you aren't Joshua" He blushed and smiled as she dumped half of her fries onto his plate.
"How did you know that?" Matt asked astounded, he was starting to feel very much like a third wheel.
"I know everything." Olivia winked witha giggle, "Especially about my Joshy." Matt raised his eyebrows and mouthed "My Joshy" to Josh with a smirk. To which Josh blushed and muttered
"Shut up Matt" Olivia remained oblivious to their little interaction as she continued to eat her fries. But all Josh could think was yeah, she really does know everything.
is it just a part we're playing? cause it don't feel like we're faking.
They stood in the small dressing room, they're scene was about to start. Their last proper scene together. After this, they might not ever act together again. This might be the last time they were Ricky and Nini together. There was a sense of finality lingering in the air threatening to suffocate them. He didn't want this to end and she couldn't bare the idea of not seeing him everyday. But they had to face it, this might be the end for their friendships and their careers as Ricky and Nini.
"Great job tonight Ricky" She slowly turned towards the door and began to leave,
"I love you" He shouted, causing her to turn instantly in shock. Tim had told him to improvise, but it didn't feel like improvising. He wasn't Ricky anymore. He was Josh. He rambled on, speaking from his heart.
"Ricky, you know in musicals when people burst into song when they've run out of things to say? Sometimes its easier to just kiss." She grinned as she dropped her bag and walked towards him,
"Yeah?" He beamed, inching towards her too.
"Yeah." She breathed as she leant on her tippy toes, her hands on his cheeks. His hands resting on her waist. He pulled her closer to his chest and connected their lips. He couldn't pull away, he just kept coming back for more. It said in the script "Ricky and Nini kiss" a simple small kiss, and this definetly wasn't that. She smiled into the kiss and then they both pulled away. He felt dizzy from shock and her lips were tingling in confusion. It felt real. But it wasn't. They were just acting, weren't they?
so much left unspoken.
From outside the door, Josh could hear quiet whimpers and sobs. They were almost silent, but yet begging to be heard. "Livvy?"
Olivia shot up and blinked her eyes. "Joshy?" Her voice broke as she called out for him. "Are you there?" Josh opened the door to see Olivia, her eyes red and raw from crying. Her phone was lying on the floor, dozens of messages left unread, pictures ripped apart and strewn across the floor.
