~Recap~

I don't have time to pull the shirt on before Liam's voice says, " Jennifer?"

~End of recap~

" So burn me with fire, surround me with flames, I'm gonna wake up, screaming your name, yes I'm a sinner, yes I'm a saint, whatever happens here, whatever happens here, we remain."

Chapter Five

" Liam, I-" I whisper.

" What the fuck, Jen!?" He screams. " I tell you I love you and you can't wait a matter of hours to sleep with him!?"

" Liam, it's not what it looks like," I tell him.

" I think it is," says Liam, elbowing Josh as he stomps out the house.

As soon as he's gone, I feel tears well up in my eyes, and one drops over the edge. " Hey, it's ok," Josh says, pulling me in for a hug. I bury my face in his chest.

Why wouldn't Liam listen? I didn't sleep with Josh! Even if I did it's none of his business.

But why did I have to defend myself? If I had wanted to sleep with Josh I would've and it wouldn't have mattered if he didn't want me too. Which leaves only one explanation.

Do I have feelings for Liam?

No. No, I can't. I can't have feelings for Liam. I have feelings for Josh.

But I can't deny that feeling. That feeling that comes when he says my name.

No, shut up, Jen! Shut the hell up!!

I breath in Josh's musky scent and then pull away. I kiss him softly. When I'm in flats I'm only a tiny bit taller than him, and he's wearing platforms, so we're about the same size.

Then something flashes through my mind. " Josh?"

" Hmmm?" He hums, smiling cheerfully.

" How are we gonna get out here without the paparazzi seeing?"

" Shit."

" How does it feel knowing that the whole world wants to sleep with you?" Jena asks.

" I don't think th-" I start.

" I wasn't talking to you," she says, then addresses Josh. " Zip?"

" Uh, sure," he mumbles, unzipping her. I glare at him. He shrugs.

She whips round and smiles at us. I look up and glare at the sky. Woody and Josh wear a matching smirk.

The elevator stops on her floor. " Thanks, that was fun. We should do it again." She says, before walking out.

" No, thank you," Woody says smugly. " Johanna Mason, District 7."

" Cut!!" Frances yells.

I immediately grab Josh's hand and pull him out the lift. I drag him round the corner and jump down the stairs. We come out at the hotel snack bar.

" Can I have, um, a bag of salted chips," I mumble.

The girl at the counter smiles and hands them to me, then turns to Josh, " Anything for you, sir?"

" Uh, same as her please," he says, smiling charmingly.

She hands us each a bag of chips and we burst the packets open, letting the salty, crunchy sensation fill our mouths. I grab Josh's arm, and drag him out the room, saying, " C'mon, this is an interview on Ellen, not some stupid MTV show."
