Chapter 50
JOSIE
Things aren’t as awkward the next day after the kiss as I thought they might be - both Victor and I sleep in different beds, and we spend the entire night safely away from each other to reflect. We didn’t say much to each other after we kissed... we didn’t even make any plan to sleep separately... Victor just got up and left me alone in the bedroom... so I was worried things might’ve completely changed between us when I saw him the next day...
He kissed me. I kissed him.
And we didn’t stop for a hell of a long time.
And it felt a lot more real than it did before.
We both liked it.
That was crazy.
What does it mean? Does it even have to mean anything? Does it change everything?
I feel like it does.
A fake relationship...
The morning after the kiss, we pass each other once in the hallway of the villa, with nothing said between us except for a quick morning hello. That’s it.
Nothing too awkward.
But a lot of questions still linger in the air.
I go and lounge around all day on the terrace until I feel burnt. I then head back to my room for a shower when I run into Victor again.
And this time he wants a longer chat.
“Got any plans tonight?” he asks me in the hallway.
I shrug.
“Literally nothing,” I reply.
“You want to watch the sunset on a boat together?” he asks casually.
I wonder if he’s thought about last night as much as I have...
I nod.
“Yes, that will be nice,” I say. “I’d like that.”
“Let’s meet here in two hours,” the actor suggests.
I nod again, trying not to be awkward.
“Sounds good,” I reply. “I’ll meet you here in two hours, then.”
I guess this is going to be our real test.
Fake relationship my ass.
This is turning into something a hell of a lot more complicated...
