CHAPTER FIFTEEN - THIS IS WHERE I BELONG

━━━━━ •:•☾☼☽•:• ━━━━━

TO SAY THAT THIS WEEK HAD NOT BEEN AN EMOTIONAL WHIRLWIND, WOULD BE A LIE.

Josephine's own emotions have been all over the place, thrown on the ground and stepped on numerous times this past week but now she felt like she escaped the emotions she had been feeling. Even though Becky had got under her skin plenty of times, there was one thing that Becky couldn't take from her and it was the fact that what she was feeling in this moment, was something she had never felt before.

As soon as Josephine returned from behind the curtain after she took the Smackdown Women's Championship from Becky Lynch, she was overflowing with emotions that she could no longer contain.

Her trainer, AJ Styles had been watching the whole match. Even though he felt disappointed in himself from losing his own match to Daniel Bryan, he was happy that at least Josephine had her moment and returned with a championship in her hand. The blonde walked towards him after hugging with Hunter and Vince McMahon, and then taking a few photos for Twitter. Her hair was a complete mess of orange dipped curls, some of them weren't even curled anymore from the sweat that been dripping from both her body and Lynch's. Her makeup was pretty much non-existent, and her lipstick was smudged down her chin but in AJ's opinion, it made the picture they were going to post look more like Josephine's character.

"Thank you for believing in me and giving me this chance." Josephine turned towards Hunter after taking the picture, his arm wrapped around her neck to give her a hug. It was only until she had turned away from the two men, her gaze falling onto AJ that his grin had only grew.

He let out a playful laugh as she began to walk towards his extended arms that engulfed her into a hug, wrapping around her shoulders to pull her in further. He heard her let out a small cry of disbelief as his head rested on top of hers, "I knew you could do it, Jo." He whispered.

Josephine pulled away almost instantly upon hearing him, studying the proud grin on his face as he followed her with his eyes. "You really thought I could?" Josephine nodded repeatedly, a part of her didn't believe him because he didn't know how she won the match, that it was pretty much given to her. If it was not for Becky, she wondered if she would have really beat The Man.

She hated the doubt that she felt for herself, but she couldn't help but keep that as a possibility that maybe, she would of not won if Becky didn't tell her to climb the ladder. She didn't beat Becky Lynch like she wanted — on her own terms. Honestly to Josephine, it seemed like once again she won on Becky's terms because Becky told her too.

The confidence in AJ's stare was enough to diminish the doubt she was feeling for just a few moments as he told her firmly, "Without a doubt." He placed both his hands on her shoulders to hold her in place, "I picked the right woman to teach, and I couldn't be happier of who she has become under my guidance."

Josephine let out a shaky breath as she smiled warmly up at him. "Thank you, Allen." Her hand came up to stroke the side of his cheek while a tear rolled down her cheek.

"Can I join in on this love fest?" Josephine and AJ turned their heads towards a smiling Paige, walking towards them with her arms out to wrap around the both of them. "I love our threesomes."

"Paige!" Josephine groaned out in annoyance as she heard AJ snicker under his breath while tightening his hold against the two women.

Josephine talked with the other superstars for awhile as the high of the match still shined in her blue eyes, her body was beyond feeling broken and bruised but the adrenaline that was flowing through her body was still present and she felt thankful for that.

Her shoulders did begin to feel heavier than normal as she parted ways with Finn and Logan, the couple congratulating her while they invited her to their wedding as a guest that would happen in three months, March to be exact.

Josephine accepted of course and she was honored that Logan had thought of her. She didn't think that Logan would have invited her to the most important day of their entire lives. She was even more touched when she saw how in love the two of them were, Logan couldn't keep her eyes off of him. She could only hope that one day, someone would look at her like that.

As soon as Josephine entered the locker room, suddenly she felt like she could truly breathe. The room was mostly empty apart from the bags from several other women that had not fully packed up their belongings but would soon flood the locker room as Josephine's match was the end of the show.

So for those few moments that she had alone, she cherished. Finally, she was left alone in silence without someone touching her. Josephine walked further inside the room and sat down on to the cool flooring, letting out a deep sigh when her eyes were glancing up at the ceiling, back against the cool concrete floor.

She laid like that in complete silence, the only sounds were coming from the other side of the door. The crew members were working on shutting down the show, and soon the door opened making Josephine wince at the time she had alone was short lived.

Her head turned towards the door to see Becky Lynch walking in, she obviously hadn't seen Josephine laying on her back in the middle of the room, on the floor because once she shut the door behind her, her back was facing towards the blonde.

Josephine noticed that Becky looked tense and it was not because of the match that they both had went through, but her head was also hanging low. Josephine slowly peeled herself off of the cold floor, "Becky?" she called which made the ginger jump in surprise.

"Fucking hell," the Irish woman muttered under her breath as Josephine watched her pull her hands towards her face, wiping away the tears she had left on her cheeks. "I'm sorry, I didn't know anyone was in here. I'm going—" Becky's words were fast as she grasped the door handle but Josephine pressed her hand on the door, shutting it close.

Josephine's blue eyes softened once Becky turned to face her. Her brown eyes were blood shot, clearly the woman was crying as her blotchy face was only confirming her suspicion. Josephine's eyebrows furrowed in confusion as Becky turned her gaze away from her, feeling ashamed that she was caught crying but Josephine didn't judge her for it.

"Hey—" Josephine's cold hands reached out to grab onto Becky's wrist as she tried to get away, anything to avoid this situation. "—Hey, look at me; what's going on?"

The sadness that Becky had been feeling just a few moments ago had vanished almost instantly, and once again she was growing more defensive. "Oh, don't act like you give a damn about me." she sneered while grabbing back her wrist forcefully out of Josephine's hand, which made the blonde widen her eyes in response. "You finally got what you wanted all along: to see me fail so you could ravish in the victory of Becky's burned out flames."

Josephine's head tilted to the side as she tried to make sense of what was happening right now. She had thought that Becky was happy for her, now that she had the championship. Looking back at it now, it even looked like she was happy for her while she rose the title in the air in victory. "Why do you always assume the worst of me?" she shook her head, confused.

Becky stood a few feet away from Josephine with her back towards her, unable to see her face that was pointing towards the floor but Jo noticed the way her head hung low. Becky felt defeated and it was not something she felt often. "Because I hurt you." Becky's words came out as a whisper, almost shamefully.

"Because I couldn't own up to my mistakes and what I put you through—" Becky began to explain but Josephine shook her head and interrupted her, "Becky—"

Becky's eyes went to the ceiling, pinching the bridge of her nose out of frustration while drawing a hard breath. She did not understand why Josephine would not let her talk, to try and explain why she did what she did. With a growl Becky interrupted Josephine, "—I was the one that lied to you and manipulated you because I was hurt. That night at the bar...was one of the worst nights of my life. Just a week prior to that I got into this huge fight with my ex and it got to the point where I had to pack my things, and then a week later I had to stab my best-friend in the back because she won the championship that I worked so hard for. I just.. I felt so numb, for weeks with no escape from how I felt."

Josephine listened to every bit of the story, holding onto the tiny details when Becky would wince or say breathlessly. She could tell that this was hard for her, that coming clean and explaining her side of things had been new to Becky. She was not a woman who needed to explain herself, she did what she needed to do to get things done, and get them done on her terms.

"And then you walked into that fucking bar." Becky said under her breath which made Josephine's lips part as the red head began to turn around. "I don't know if It was because I was so hammered but I swore that the world around us stopped. The thought of liking another woman had never crossed my mind until that night— until I met you. And that scared me because it was something I was unfamiliar with but fuck, I couldn't get the thought of you out of my mind."

Becky's head was shaking back and forth as she spoke while Josephine stared at her with wide eyes. The ginger began to walk towards her and Josephine's breath hitched in her throat as her hand came out to play with one of the strands of her hair, before looking back up into her eyes. "I left you that morning in hopes that I would never see you again because that night turned out to be one of the best I ever had."

"There's a difference between wanting someone to numb your pain and being generally interested." Josephine shook her head, backing away from Becky's touch like it hurt. "I still can't tell the difference with you."

Becky shook her head, grabbing onto Josephine's cold hand. "I tried to cover up what I felt for you with hostility and threats because those were familiar. My intention was to push you away but you kept coming back, because I let you."

Josephine let out a breathy chuckle as she looked towards the floor, anything other than Becky's smoldering gaze staring back at her. "You were the one who called me, I didn't think you would actually call my number after that night."

Becky followed her with her eyes, hoping that Josephine would look at her too but she didn't move her gaze from the floor. "I know I messed up."

Josephine shook her head and met Becky's stare. "When? When you lied to me about your engagement or when your fiance found us on the couch?" Her arms crossed in-front of her body while Becky exhaled in defeat. "Not to mention that you blamed me for the engagement ending, when I had nothing to do with it. I didn't even know you were engaged until he walked in the fucking door."

"Josephine, I just—" Becky reached her hand out to touch her face but Josephine caught her in mid-air, staring her down with anger flashing in her eyes. "—NO. I appreciate you apologizing but it doesn't change the fact that you hurt me, over and over again until there was nothing left."

Josephine and Becky's eyes glanced towards the door as it opened up, revealing the group of The Riott Squad walking into the room oblivious to what was happening inside just seconds ago. Liv Morgan was the first person to look at them, her eyes glancing at the pair that was rather close which lead her to believe that they walked into something. "I'm sorry, are we interrupting?" The blonde chuckled as Becky instantly walked away from Josephine which made her shake her head.

"You weren't interrupting anything." Josephine smiled towards her while walking towards her bag which was across the room from Becky, which she was thankful for. The room was too thick for her to breathe and it was obvious that Ruby had felt it as well as she looked at Josephine with a curious glint in her eye.

"Awesome match by the way." Sarah Logan glanced Josephine's way. "Congratulations." she said with a smile which Josephine delivered back with nothing else to say as she began to strip out of her gear and instead putting a pair of grey sweats over her thighs.

Josephine could see in the corner of her eyes how tense Becky was, how her face was decorated with a displeased smile ever since Sarah had congratulated her on winning. A part of her just wanted to forget this whole thing ever happened between the both of them, all of the terrible history that they built could be forgotten but even though Becky had apologized twice tonight, the hurt inside of Josephine's heart was still there. It was a reminder that she should take every word that Becky was spewing with a grain of salt.

Becky put her bright red hoodie over her head as she stuffed her gear from tonight in her suitcase. She had thought that once she apologized that Josephine would forgive her for everything, but now, she just felt this empty feeling.

Josephine watched on the bench as Becky started walking towards the door, "Becky." She called out in desperation in hopes that the ginger would turn around but it only made her stop as her hand was on the door knob.

From beside the two, Sarah and Liv looked on with curiosity while Ruby crossed her arms over her chest while a knowing expression was present on her features. As soon as she walked into the locker room, she knew what was happening inside from the thickness of the air. She had heard the rumors that were starting to fly around the backstage area about the two and their storyline but she hadn't believed that there might have been a bit more going on behind the scenes until she saw the two interact behind closed doors.

Josephine's eyebrows furrowed as hurt flooded into her face while Becky pulled the door open and walked through it. She didn't even bother to turn around to look at her, maybe Josephine would have had hope that she meant what she did if she would have looked at her. It was a recurring thing that Josephine knew all too well, was Becky leaving.

The blonde let out a defeated sigh into the room while she turned her gaze towards the trio of girls who were looking at the exchange. Josephine stared back at them, "What?" she snapped over at them.

Ruby shook her head while a smile slipped onto her face. "Nothing." she replied back with a defensive stance, holding her hands above her head as she returned to her bag. Josephine watched her for a moment before returning to her own things, packing her belongings until she stopped on the Championship sitting on the bench.

Her trance was broken as her phone started ringing with the face time chime and her gaze switched towards the screen. The sad expression that was on her face had lit up when she turned the video on, and Sonya appeared on the screen with a huge grin on her face.

"Let me see it, ponytail!" Sonya practically screamed in excitement which made Josephine forget about her problems for a moment, putting her phone on the bench and picking up her championship to show her.

"God, you look so good right now." Sonya shook her head while a playful grin crept onto her face while Josephine chuckled under her breath. "I jumped off my couch when you climbed that ladder and grabbed it."

"She literally screamed." Mandy's voice could be heard from the background before she made an appearance over the video. "Congratulations, Jo. You earned it. We're going to party to celebrate this weekend."

Sonya watched the screen as the Riott squad left the room and then she leaned closer to the phone. "Are you in there alone right now?"

Josephine nodded her head, "Yeah, why?"

Sonya then started to look more nervous as she looked down at the floor, "Did you have a chance to talk with Becky? I mean, you had a match with her so you probably talked but—"

Josephine's brow rose on her forehead. "Yeah we talked, Son." She told her. Sonya glanced back up to the screen, looking at Josephine's expression, and encouraged her to continue. "It didn't really get the outcome that she was hoping for."

Sonya sighed out in disbelief. "God, why do you ladies need to make things so much harder for each other. She apologized, isn't that what you wanted all along? To get past everything and start over?"

"I can't forget the way she hurt me, Sonya." Josephine shrugged in response which made Sonya mock her on the other line.

"I can't forget the way— smells like ripe shit." Sonya rose her eyebrow which made Josephine sigh out. "No, her apologies aren't going to fix what she broke but it's a start. If you want something, chase it. Don't let it slip through your fingers. Soon, she will stop chasing you if it's getting her no where."

━━━━━ •:•☾☼☽•:• ━━━━━

SONYA DEVILLE'S words were haunting Josephine's mind ever since their conversation. That was probably an hour ago now since she had to wait to AJ to stop visiting his friends so they could leave. Not that Josephine minded, she liked visiting the other superstars from the other brand but as soon as they entered the vehicle AJ could tell that there was something wrong.

Josephine was silent for almost the whole ride and only spoke once AJ stopped in a drive through to get something to eat before they got to the hotel. He had glanced her way multiple times but either she did not care he was looking at her with a concern expression or that she was too deep in thought to notice his constant staring. Josephine was stuck in her mind once again, her thoughts consuming her attention from the outside world. She didn't know what to do in this situation she was in with Becky. If she could forgive the things that Becky had done.

If Becky had apologized months ago, perhaps she would have caved right then and there but in a span of those months that they were at each other's throats for the story line, there were things that Becky had done that wouldn't leave her mind.

There was the fact that Becky had tried to injure her just because she wanted revenge for making her look stupid in front of the entire universe. Becky could have gave her an injury that put her career on pause just because of her own reasoning and that did not sit well with the blonde.

Then the words that hurt her most of all. Becky had told her multiple times that she did not matter and that she meant nothing to her but Josephine knew that some of those words were apart of their script, but what if Becky meant them? She said those words with meaning, or maybe Josephine was assuming things because she was hurt herself and took the whole story to a more personal level than what it was suppose to be: professional.

Josephine was torn over what to do with everything that happened between them. In a way, what Sonya was saying to her was right. Becky could fight for her attention but sooner or later she was going to stop trying when her efforts became fruitless.

If she gave into what Becky wanted, what was stopping the red head from going back on her words the next day and disappearing once again like she always had in the past. To put yourself out there in a vulnerable position and then wake up the next day to come to work, seeing the woman you gave everything too just to ignore you and walk away? Josephine didn't know if she could handle that.

But a simple apology was not going to make everything that Becky said throughout the months go away, just like that. It was not going to be that easy, you couldn't simply erase those words from your brain, no matter how hard to try to forget them. They were always going to be there in the back of her mind, making her second guess her intentions, her thoughts and what she should do.

"Josephine?" Josephine didn't even realize that the vehicle had stopped and been sitting in the parking lot of the hotel until AJ's voice broke her out of her trance, returning her to the real world.

"Sorry, I was lost in thought." Josephine shook her head and swept the pad of her finger against her eyebrow while a sigh escaped her lips.

"Yeah, I noticed." AJ told her, looking down at her burger that was still in the wrapper. "I've been parked for five minutes." He leaned back into the seat while looking over at Josephine who just closed her eyes, leaning back against her own seat. He did not even have to ask her what was wrong for her to know that he wanted her to tell him.

"Promise you won't say anything?" Josephine looked out the window at the dark outside. There were no lights in the parking lot, most of them had been burnt out so AJ couldn't see her expression in the dark.

"I know about you and Becky." AJ told her quickly before she had a chance to say anything which made the blonde turn to glance over at him with a confused look on her face. "Charlotte spilled the beans at the club."

Josephine hummed in response while nodding her head, wondering how to even start the topic she was consumed with. "She apologized for everything that she's done but I don't know if I can believe her. I think I love her but I don't know if I can hand over my trust again."

"Are you thinking with your head or your heart?" AJ turned his body to face her as she was already looking at him. "Because you should always listen to what your heart wants. Your heart can heal but your mind will try to protect it, even if it means losing something you don't want to lose."

Josephine opened her mouth but she couldn't find the right words, "I don't—I don't know. I want her but there's a difference between wanting her and needing her."

AJ nodded his head in understanding and decided to change his thinking on the situation. "Okay, let's look at this differently. When you think about her, can you see you two together? Sharing a life in the future?"

"Yes but—"

AJ shook his head to stop her from going further. That was what he needed to hear. It was clear that her heart wanted her, it wanted to share a life with the ginger but her mind was protecting herself from further damage. "There's no but in this question. If you can see yourself building a future with her, then your answer is clear."

That gave Josephine a lot to think about as they walked towards the hotel with their luggage in tow and as soon as she walked into her own hotel room, she threw her luggage by the door. Josephine already knew she was not going to be able to fall asleep tonight, not with the adrenaline still running in her body and with her mind going a mile a minute with the thoughts. She decided that making a mug of tea was something that could ease her mind after taking a quick shower to wash off the sweat.

Once she dressed in an over sized blue sweatshirt and some sweats, she sat down on the leather chair that was facing the window, looking out the window at the bright lights of San Jose, California with a mug of tea in her hands.

Josephine sighed once a soft knock on the door interrupted her listening to the busy nights of people screaming from down below. The blonde walked towards the door after placing her mug on the table, and opened it up to reveal Becky on the other side.

It had looked like she had just gotten out of the shower with everything wiped off of her face while her hair was pulled back into a messy bun. They stared at each other for a moment without even saying anything until Josephine opened the way for her to walk inside the room.

Josephine shut the door behind her and mentally sighed because she was not expecting Becky to show up after explaining everything, it just wasn't something Becky did. "Can I have one?" Becky then asked which made Josephine glance at her in confusion until Becky pointed out the mug of tea.

There was an odd silence surrounding them as Josephine made another cup of tea for the former Champion. It made Josephine feel anxious because Becky hadn't said a word since she walked in here. Was she waiting for her to say something? God, she wished she could read minds in this moment.

Josephine walked over with a steaming cup of tea and handed it to Becky, who said a quick 'thank you,' as Josephine sat down onto the bed since Becky had stolen her chair next to the window. Josephine waited for Becky to say something but all the red head did was look out the window, her hand playing with the multiple bracelets decorating her wrist out of nervousness.

"You stole my chair." Josephine decided to lead with something to lift the air between them, and it seemed like it worked once Becky turned her head and scoffed in response. Josephine watched as she took a sip at her tea, "Why'd you come here?"

Becky's brown eyes focused on the view outside the window as she breathed out. "I can't remember. I had this whole speech planned out in the shower and then when I see you, I can't think straight." When Josephine didn't answer her, Becky turned her attention to the blonde who was already staring at her with a calm face, unreadable and Becky hated that.

"I didn't understand this feeling that I developed for you. My whole life I believed I liked men, so when you walked into that bar with your pretty face, I was confused because I would never look at a woman the way I looked at you that night but at the same time I had to know you." Becky watched her face but nothing changed, her expression was emotionless as she hid behind the cup of tea, taking slow sips as Becky continued. "I lied and manipulated you because I told myself that this was just something I needed to distract the pain, but I noticed all this time that I've been telling myself that repeatedly when really, I was scared of the thought of people judging me for liking a woman."

Josephine put down her mug on the bedside table and crossed her legs on the bed to get more comfortable. "There's always going to be people judging, but you don't do thing because it pleases them. You do it for your own happiness not what some asshole across the street feels."

Josephine watched as Becky rose from the chair while putting her cup on the table. "All I know is that I don't want to feel this empty anymore. I'm done with covering up my desires with hostility when all I want to do is throw you into that bed and never let you leave."

Josephine's mouth parted slightly as she felt her breath get sucked out of her lungs. Becky stopped walking at the edge of the bed, waiting for Josephine's answer. Josephine leaned up onto her knees to look at Becky's soft brown eyes with lust and a hint of desperation. She didn't know if this was going to be a big mistake but this is all Josephine wanted, was to feel her fingers going through Becky's mane.

"Then do it." Becky didn't have any time to even answer her back before she felt Josephine's lips are upon hers in a second. Her fingers curled harder around Becky's forearm as the ginger leaned in, breathing the blonde in and gripping her waist to keep her in place like she would leave in any second.

Raising her free hand in between their bodies and placing it just under Becky's throat to kiss down her jaw, trialing her collarbone and placing more kisses along the dip in her neck. She could feel Becky's pulse under her own lips, the unsteady breathing coming from her mouth as Becky gripped onto her tighter.

Josephine pulled away from her neck, only to have Becky lift her off the bed and place both hands on the sides of her face, closing the inch of distance between them, and sealed their lips together in a passionate heated kiss. Josephine moaned out into her mouth as Becky reached for her clothing — she first pulled it, so their bodies were flushed together, then throwing it over the blonde's head. Josephine took the next step while their lips were separated, reaching for the ginger's shirt to throw it somewhere beside them and their lips joined again.

Josephine splayed her hands on the newly exposed skin, smiling into the kiss as her muscles beneath her palms twitched and Becky sighed against her mouth. She was always so responsive with her, it was one of the things Josephine missed as her hands wandered, kneading the ginger's curves and finding the places that made her breath stop short.

Josephine reached up from behind Becky's neck, untying the hair tie that was keeping Becky's hair from flowing down her shoulders. Once her red-hair came down like waves around her shoulders, Josephine leaned back to look at her. Her brown eyes were clouded with lust as she reached for her, grabbing hold of Josephine's bra and taking it off while Josephine kissed her neck. She left small kisses until she lightly bit into the curve of her shoulder, inciting a gasp followed by a moan to leave Becky's lips.

Becky moved her hand to take hold of Josephine's cheek, guiding her face upwards to press her own lips to hers while her hand traveled down between their bodies, beneath the material of Josephine's pants. She could feel the warmth and her fingers found Josephine's wet core, earning a moan from the blonde.

"I want to hear you." Becky whispered against her lips as she moved her fingers against her while Josephine wrapped an arm around Becky's neck for support. "Every little sound that comes from your pretty mouth, I wanna hear." Becky whispered against Josephine's hot skin which made the blonde arch her back into her, while her fingers began to circle in quick motions.

"Fuck... Becks," Josephine whispered out against Becky's opened mouth, their hot breaths mixing together as their gazes locked. The sounds that were coming from Josephine's mouth was enough to send Becky over the edge herself. She was struggling to keep them both upright as Josephine slacked against her, her legs starting to feel like jelly as she tried to reach her peak. Becky pressed harder against her, holding her upright as Josephine started to move her hips to Becky's fingers as she chased her own orgasm, Becky's name spilling out of her mouth like a beautiful mantra.

Josephine's hand went to Becky's moving arm, wrapping her fingers around her bicep as she cried out her name. "Holy fuck— Becky!" The red-head could feel Josephine's fingers dig into her bicep that was sure to leave marks into her skin.

It too a moment to regain her senses after Becky withdrew her hand, holding onto her as she lead them to the bed so Josephine could lay down while her legs tremble under the high. It only took a minute before Josephine was turning to look towards Becky who was watching her face, her eyes going towards the bleeding marks onto her bicep that Becky hadn't even noticed yet.

Leaning over her, Josephine joined their lips in a tender kiss with a hint of laziness as the haze hasn't lifted from her senses. Everything about this moment was different than the last time. It wasn't rushed, they had all night to explore and Josephine noticed that Becky made sure she was okay.

Breaking the kiss, she held her gaze for a moment before dipping her head and kissing her way down, biting the pale skin and soothing the marks with her tongue. Josephine focused on the moans that she was drawing from the ginger, scraping her teeth against her soft skin which made Becky's back arch against her.

Moving down to her thighs, Jo peppered kisses and bites from the insides of Becky's inner thigh, alternating legs and enjoying the way that her hips would move up and down in a smooth motion. Josephine looked towards her, and saw that she was propped up onto her elbows and was watching every movement Josephine made.

Josephine grinned back at her as she stuck her tongue out, looking at how Becky's breath hitched in anticipation before she surprised her by suddenly wrapping her lips around the engorged bundle of nerves and relished in the sound of her name being stretched out and moaned as Becky fell back. Josephine's tongue worked patterns in her slick skin, sliding one finger inside of Becky, working her way until she could put the second, pumping slow and deep.

She felt Becky grab onto her hair, pulling the stands into a make shift ponytail as she rocked against her face, and Josephine pressed her free forearm below her navel, trying to keep her still. "Oh god." she moaned as Josephine curled her fingers inside of her when she felt her hair get tugged harder.

She could feel the way Becky was tightening around her fingers once she quickened her pace, and her name fell out of Becky's lips. Josephine reached upwards to grab onto Becky's breast as she watched her face while she rode her orgasm.

Josephine moaned out as she gushed onto her fingers, her tongue still attacking her while Becky tried to get away from Josephine's movements. The blonde slowly withdrew her fingers from Becky while she pulsated around them, and kissed her way up her body. It's when she noticed that Becky's hand was intertwined with hers that had been grabbing onto her breast but Josephine didn't mention any of it.

Becky captured her lips with hers, tasting her own arousal on Josephine's tongue before she laid down beside her. "How are you feeling?" Josephine questioned her as she watched Becky's eyes study the ceiling.

Her brown eyes met hers once she moved her head to look at her. "Alive. More alive than I have ever felt before." Josephine smiled over at her but her sudden smile was wiped away when she remembered that Becky could grab her clothes from the floor and leave.

Sensing her unease, Becky grabbed onto her chin and turned her to look up at her. "I'm not going anywhere, Josephine. This is where I belong — with you."

AND THAT FOLKS, IS HOW YOU WRAP UP A BOOK.

I thank everyone that took the time to vote and comment on my story. This has been a wild ride for me and I didn't expect Josephine to impact me the way she has. I loved writing her story, and have actually become attached to her. I'm seriously going to miss the book.

Anyways, I might post one chapter to 'wrap' everything up but right now, this is seeming like the end of the book.

Brooke out. Thank you for your support.
