“ i think he puts up with me, but love ? ah… dunno about that one. ” would he have kissed romi if so ? debatable. clearly irrelevant that he tried to kiss naomi but whatever. josh still chose to bring that up at the absolute worst time. “ … are we trying to target anyone else ? anyone pissed you off recently ? ” except him, maybe. he’s not entirely sure if he did piss her off but he definitely didn’t manage to be whatever she wanted. it probably counts to some degree. he can’t help the way his smile grows as she laughs so easily, like they always could before everything went to shit. his gaze is taken by her lips, only returning up to their eyes once he realises he wants them on his. he feels guilty about it, having told dante it wasn’t what he wanted, for making it clear to eden he wanted something easy, when right now all he’s thinking about is how he’d rather forget all that and just pull them in by their waist, bring her to sit on top of him and get lost in each other. it’s her voice that brings his attention back, a reminder of what he’s trying to do; be friends, be comfortable at the very least with each other, how he shouldn’t be thinking about kissing them right now. he wonders if dante is right though, that she’s only really entertaining it because it’s what marcus wants. he hopes not, since he wouldn’t want that for her. “ yeah, like, a little patch right in the middle, or… a reverse mohawk or something. in a weird way, i think he’d rock it. ” though realistically josh is probably 50% hair, 50% abs. if you messed with either of those… how desirable is he really ? “ oh yeah, course. this would need to be documented, one hundo percent. ” he laughs. “ i’d do whatever i needed to for ‘ the shot ’. ” though in the villa that would probably mean hiding behind the kitchen counter or something. “ really ? wanna bet on it ? ” because he simply doesn’t believe them, not at all. “ if he did, we’d see it coming. we’re waaaay smarter. and there’s two of us, so we’d have each other’s backs. ”
“Well, he’s for sure fond of you.” This conversation makes them wonder if Josh treats the two of them the same and that’s why they’re both just going around in circles. Though they do think Josh and her are closer, like, closer than most people in the villa. “Uh, not that I can think of.” Romi thinks there’s probably several people that she’s pissed off but there really isn’t anyone that she has a problem with. Maybe she would prank Angel on Callie’s behalf but that’s pretty much it. The energy around the two of them isn’t lost on Romi even if it is something that they are trying to push to the back of their mind, afraid of their own level of impulse control if they think about it too much. They have spent too much time together, getting to know each other intimately well, for them to miss the way that he looks at them when they’re looking away from him, turning around just in time to catch it. Being able to feel this comfortable again now that they’re officially no longer together feels fucked up considering how confused their body feels by the fact that they aren’t pressed up against him right now. That she isn’t running her hand through his curls while he rests his on their thigh or wraps his arm around their waist. “I think he would attempt to rock it.” Josh’s hair is such an integral part of who he is, though, that Romi thinks it would be an incredible blow at his self esteem. At his words, they raise their brows, a mixture of surprise and a sudden competitiveness. “I’ll bet on it, yeah.” Especially considering the way their friendship with Josh is going right now, they can’t imagine that he’ll take it easy on them. Well, maybe he’ll just be happy that Marcus and her are doing something together. “What if he got Naomi to help him? Then it’d be two against two, it’d even the playing field.” Romi pauses. “Though I still think we’re way smarter than them so we’d make a better team.”
