The same roof 1 || HEROPHINE

thirty-eight: "Ma-Martha"

Josephine's Pov

"Good morning!" Scar says euphorically, standing up from her chair and coming for a hug.
"Good morning." I say hugging her and enjoying the warmth that her body spreads.
Is too fucking cold outside.
She sits down and I do it too.
"I already ordered your hot cappuccino." she says smiling at me.
"Thank you." I say taking my jacket, my glasses off and pulling my hair in a messy bun.
"So..." she starts and I can see through her eyes that she's trying to be so careful.
"How are you feeling about last night?" she asks placing her hand around the cup.
The waitress come with my cup an: I thank her with a smile.
"I'm so sorry for leave you in that way." I say and she accentuate a little smile on her lips.
"Don't worry." she says while i I start to move the spoon in circles trying to melt the sugar.
"I'm feeling a bit confused. I'm not mad at him I'm just upset and angry with myself. Angry because I need to be clear about my feelings, with him and with myself and upset because I wasn't expecting that from him." I say while my hands are around the hot cup.
"Alright, I think that you both did mistakes. You because you let your fear take the control of everything making you fail. You have to tell him how you feel and after that you can try to built a relationship with him. Don't think about the after." she says analysing the situation .
She looks down to my hands and the the takes them.
"Live in the present not in the future. Tell him how you feel and I promise you that he will treat you like you deserve and he will never think about kissing and other girl that isn't you." she suggests me.
That's what I really need. A suggestion from a friend.
"Scar is too easy to say." I say still not sure about it.
The fear of messing the relationship with him is too much. I mean, our jokes is what really makes our cohabitation so pleasant and of course if we mess up our moods will get darker and darker and we will and up being the classic roommates that yells at each other.
"Jo is easy. Trust me. Did I ever disappointed you?" she asks with her sparkling eyes.
I roll my eyes and shake my head because I know that she's right.
"No you don't. For now." I say making her giggle.
She licks her lips after finishing her cappuccino and then we go to do some shopping.
"Alright. From now you have to tell me everything everything if you want me to help  you and no more hiding things ." she says caressing my hand with her thumb.
"I'm so lucky to have you Scar." I say her eyes get softer.
"Stop it now before I start to cry." she says.

When I get home I decide to make w sugo for the pasta and after that I put the water for the pasta and while I'm waiting for that to boil I take w quick shower and change in some comfy clothes.
I turn on the heaters because it's really freaking cold here in England but I can't complain because I love Christmas season.
I put some pasta more then usual in case Hero is hungry.
I'm a bit nervous to be honest.
I'm going to tell him how I feel and I'll let him talk and listen as Scar suggested me.
I hear some voices out of the door and I recognize Hero's so I run to the window, look my reflection on it and check on myself.
My heart starts to beat fast through my chest while I hear the sound of the door lock.
Josephine, act normal.
I take the wooden spoon an I start to move the pasta in circle.
"I don't think s-" I hear hero's voice getting clear and clear while the door is opening and then when I realize that he stopped talking I turn and look up.
A woman is looking at me surprised as Hero is.
Who is she?
I look at her up and down but when my eyes places on her eyes I understand. I can recognize those eyes in a 100 000 people crowd.
"Oh, Hey. I didn't thought you were home." Hero says still looking at me so surprised to see me home.
He looks like he's day dreaming right now.
"Oh it's fine. Please come in." I say looking at the blonde woman.
So they walk in after Diesel does literally running to me.
We bonded while I was sick. Thank Hod he made me company.
"Thank you. Wow is so pretty in here." the soft and kind voice of the woman says with a British accent.
Diesel places his paws on my knees so I bend down and I let him lick my face.
"Hi buddy. I missed you too." I say meanwhile.
Hero looks at me with a smile and I really missed that.
"He really seems so crazy in love with you already." the woman giggles while Diesel really jumps around me so excited.
"Who doesn't." I hear Hero saying and then I look at him and also the woman turns in his direction so surprised about what Hero just said.
M'am I'm surprised as you, don't worry.
Hero seems to realize what he just said and then he looks down running his fingertips on his eyebrows.
After few seconds he looks at me under his eyelashes. I stop breathing.
He really just said what I think he said?
"Alright. Mom this is Josephine, Josephine this is my mom." he says finally introducing us.
I knew who she was from the moment I looked at her eyeballs. Now I understand how Hero is this gorgeous, she is stunning.
Hero has her same eyes, nose and lips but Hero's are more pink then hers.
She's also tall.
"It's so nice to meet you m'am." I say leaning my hand.
"Oh dear, no "m'am" here. Just Martha." she says shaking my hand.
Hero is the photocopy of her. They don't look alike like Mercy and Hero does but also the way the talk, the voice tone, the smile...
I nod to her smiling back to her and then I look at Hero smiling watching the scene of us.
"Mom come to see my bedroom." he says taking her hand.
"Yeah show her." I say and then they go.
