Genre: Jealousy from reader!JoshGiddey , happy ending, fluff
…
Y/N is coming back home, unlocking her apartment when she’s startled by a tall, blonde girl laughing, exiting Josh’s (her neighbor’s) apartment across the hall. She makes breif eye contact with her and smiles, exchanging hello’s. Walking into her home, she feels a dark jealousy overtake her.
Who was she? She’s gorgeous. Was this a new girl of his? Too many thoughts swirled through her gut. Without thinking with her brain, she felt compelled to just walk right through his door and confront him about her.
Which is just what she did. “Hi Josh.” she greets him solumnly.
“Oh, hey, Y/N. What’s good?”
“Not much, I…” She had no idea what to say. Her heart swelled with such intense jealousy, it took the words from her mouth. The fear of losing Josh. So quickly, hurt beyond words. “What have you been up to?” She musters out.
Josh picks a handful of grapes from the fridge. “Well, company just left, I didn’t think you’d be home so soon.”
Why did that matter to him? Was he trying to hide this girl from her? “I just came back, thought i’d say what’s up, ya know.” She must have looked like she had just seen a ghost, “Did you have a good time?”
Oh god, why did she ask? She didn’t care. Y/N almost wished they had a bad time, the jealousy was so strong.
“Yeah, I had to show Sara who was boss on the rooftop court.” He smiled, plopping a fat grape into his mouth.
“Really? Well… Josh, how long have you been seeing her?”
Josh shoves a few more, huge grapes, into his mouth, chewing them with difficulty, and leans on his countertop. “We go way back. Always been pretty close.”
That waas it. Nail in the coffin. Y/N thought she was the only one he took to the rooftop court. But this whole time, there was someone else in the shadows, secretly holding dominion over his heart. She crosses her arms, figuring out how to take in this new, horrible reality.
Josh sees her body language and takes a few steps towards her. He hates to see her this way. He brushes her hair away from her eyes, to which she withdraws from his touch. “We go so far back, we might have just as well grown up together.” A small, devilish smile graces the corner of his mouth, “Actually, we did grow up together.” He claps his hand on Y/N’s shoulder, “because the chick who just left is my sister.” He laughs.
Oh sweet jesus, instant relief. The weight of the world is lifted from Y/N as she finally can breathe. Her knees weaken.
Josh brings her into a big bear hug. “Oh, my sweet Y/N, my sweet, JEALOUS Y/N. What am I going to do with you??” He holds you close, continuing to laugh.
Y/N hugs him tighter as he picks her up, wrapping her legs around him, burying her face into the hood of his sweatshirt at his neck, “I hate you so so much.”
He throws her down onto the couch, and she relaxes, “I love you too” He winks. “How about chinese and we watch some old Vine compilations on youtube tonight?”
