Imagine/One Shot for @ameliaahughes6 (Amelia)! Hope you enjoy! x
"KISS KISS KISS KISS!" JJ, George, Jaymi and Olly chant, Josh and I exchange awkward glances.
"Well... A dare is a dare." Josh smiles slightly, he reaches out, resting his hands on my hips. His lips then connect with mine, my eyes flutter shut. After a couple of seconds Josh leans back, removing his hands from my hips.
"See it wasn't that hard! And we could all see you two were enjoying it." Jaymi smirks, Josh raises an eyebrow at him. Josh seems at ease, as though the kiss meant nothing... Of course it meant nothing... To him.
I can feel the blush on my cheeks as I sit, feeling beyond uncomfortable. Josh glances over and smiles.
"Don't worry Amelia, it was just a kiss. It doesn't mean anything. Everything will be the same between you and me!" he squeezes my shoulder reassuringly, reassurance was the far from the emotion I felt. I force a smile and nod, George is looking at me with pity. He can tell. He hasn't mentioned it, but he's made it pretty damn obvious he's recognised my love Josh.
"Who's thirsty? Shall I get drinks? Amelia... you want to help?" George suggests.
I nod slightly, "Uh, yeah sure."
George stands and begins to tread towards the kitchen, I swiftly follow. Once we've both entered George slams the door shut, "You need to tell him."
"Tell who, what?" I decide to play dumb, pretend I know nothing he's talking about.
He raises an eyebrow, "You tell him or I do!"
"No!" I shriek before adding quietly, "Why would you tell him anyway?"
"Because it's annoying me! You and Josh are annoying me... Both too wimpy to admit your feelings."
"What are you talking about? You trying to confuse me? Give me a slither of hope that Josh might possibly love me back?" I scowl
"He does. He just hides his emotions better than you, he's better at pretending the kiss meant nothing." George gives me a small smile, then approaches the counter and starts pouring drinks. Once he's finished I sigh and pick up three drinks, balancing them to avoid dropping them. George duplicates my actions. After entering the lounge we position the cups on the coffee table, George plops down in his original place, I sit next to him. Away from Josh.
For a second I convince myself that I see a flicker of hurt in Josh's eyes, I throw the idea away with the knowledge that my heart is causing my eyes to play tricks on me.
The boys begin a conversation while I just stare into space, I'm not complaining. The thought of conversing with Josh is bordering painful.
Suddenly Josh's face is inches away from mine, I jump a little, startled.
"Are you okay, love?" He asks, concern smothering his words.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" I reply a fraction too fast.
"You're crying." He says, I reach my hand up and wipe away the tears I hadn't noticed were there. Josh sits next to me and lifts me on to his lap, wrapping his arms around me. More tears form in my eyes, Josh wipes them away as they fall, "Erm... guys... Could you er, go for a minute?" Josh requests, they nod and scamper out the room.
"I'm okay." I state, I go to stand up but Josh grips me tightly.
"Baby- I mean Amelia, you've been acting bizarre ever since we were dared to kiss." Damn. He's worked it out! "Is there something going on between you and George? Is he mad? I promise I won't get upset if it's true."
I smile, he couldn't be more wrong, "No Josh, there's nothing going on between George and I. Why would you be upset?"
Immediately his cheeks flush, "Well, I, er, thought you knew."
"Knew what?"
"I like you- No. I love you." He stutters, his blush deepening.
"I love you too!" I grin before kissing him. Our first non-dared kiss.
