Josie Saltzman let out a groan as her eyes opened. "Holy fuck." She sat up from her position, rubbing her eyes.

"How'd you sleep?"

The girl's eyes widened as she heard Justin Foley speak. Her eyes drifted down her body as she saw that she was fully clothed. "Thank god." Justin let out a chuckle as he handed her two Advil tablets and a bottle of water. "Did we do anything last night?"

Justin bit his lip as he shook his head. "You very aggressively forced me to cuddle with you, but that was mostly it."

Josie crinkled her nose and slammed her palm against her forehead. "Thank you for taking care of me."

"Of course." Justin nodded as he watched the girl take the Advil tablets. "Uh- you did post something on your Instagram last night."

"Uh oh." Josie's eyes widened. "Why'd you say it like that?"

Justin let out a chuckle, shaking his head. "I think you should just look."

Josie nodded, taking her phone from the stand next to her bed. She turned it on and went straight into the Instagram app. There were a lot of notifications. "It was a popular post, huh? Let's see what it-" Josie stopped talking as soon as she pressed on the image. Her eyes widened as she saw what she had written. She let out a nervous cough as she shook her head and tossed the phone onto the bed.

"Jo?"

"I don't really know why I said that..." She furrowed her eyebrows, not daring to look Justin in the face.

"Jo." Justin repeated with a little more of a forceful tone.

The girl bit her lip softly. "What?" She finally looked up at him.

Justin placed his hand softly on her cheek and smiled. "I love you, too."

Josie's lips parted slightly as she heard what came out of his mouth. She couldn't say it back. Maybe she did love him, but she could not do that. He had hurt her too much already. "Justin, I was drunk. You know I say stupid shit when I'm drunk."

"Josie, you don't mean that."

"I don't love you. I can't love you."

Justin's expression faded. "I've never loved anyone before, Jo."

Josie shook her head, moving his hand from her cheek. "You don't love me, Justin."

"I do, though, and I know that you love me."

"I don't though."
