Josh POV

You know sometimes when you go to sleep at night, you don't dream. It could be a good or bad thing depending on who you are, and if you do actually enjoy dreaming. For me not having a dream every once in a while, is like having a break from hell. Especially when I can't tell the difference between dreaming and hallucinating anymore.

I continued to lay in the bed, I didn't want the bliss of this to end. I can feel the warmth of Sam's body behind me, which is another reason I feel glued to the bed I want to be close to her. Her smell is intoxicating right now, just to be the close to her is everything to me right now. I can feel my member up with the sun as per usual. I feel Sam starting to stir¸ maybe she's waking up. I inwardly sigh but freeze when I feel her move closer to me. I can feel her chest against my back and her body literally up against mine. I feel myself growing bigger, almost painfully since it's been months since I've released. I try to hold my groan but it still resonates in my throat. I'm screaming inside my mind if I move she might wake up and see it, and could be completely disgusted. Then that would be my first and last time laying with her.

I almost jumped out of my skin when I started to feel her tracing small circles on my hip where my sweat pants had lowered from tossing and turning last night. I try to control myself, I squeeze my eyes shut and I'm trying to think of something else. Old people, dead puppies, trash - I hiss as I feel her hand slide just under the rim of my pants and rub along the indent it left on my skin, it caused me to shiver. What is she doing? I wanted to turn around and take her right here right now, but the gentlemen in me is restraining my caveman urges. Barely.

Her hand slides lower in my pants and I can feel her fingertips on my length and I could go right now, but I'm holding it in for dear life. I would never hear the end of it. She traces circles on the shaft with her fingertips and I can't help but let out a groan. She moves her hand and circles toward the top and I flinch since its really sensitive, especially right now. She grips the top gently and starts to move up and down with her soft hands. I slowly start to thrust my hips forward to match her speed, she wasn't moving fast but in fact agonizingly slow. She must be teasing me. I moved my hips slightly faster and surprisingly she matched my speed, moving her hands swiftly up and down. I was in heaven right now, I don't know how much longer I was going to be able to take. Then in one movement she almost ended it when she got to the top and flicked her wrist which twisted it at the top and I open my mouth to groan but I already knew it would be loud, so I opt to bite down on my lip instead and deal with it. I don't know how much more of this I can deal with till I let it go, I don't want her to stop. I start to feel myself swelling up in her hand, and she starts to kiss me on my neck and that was it. I grabbed her hand and turned around… she was gone.

I was cold and alone with a raging hard on, I looked around the room and neither Sam nor Chris were anywhere in sight. I turned toward the hallway and notice there jackets were gone too. "Left without saying goodbye" I turn and see Dr. Hill sitting in the recliner as if it was his office chair with his pad and pen, he leaned forward as if waiting for me to reply in some way. I looked down at my now painful erection, I'm still so close it feels like it's stuck. He says "One of the hardest things to do in life, is letting go of what you thought was real" I suddenly start to get filled with rage, "This is all a game to you!" I yell at him, he made a shocked face "I'm insulted, it is not I who has created this game. I am merely a guide for you. I am here to help you Joshua but you seem like you do not want my help." I get up "Your right I don't, so please leave!" I get up and start walking toward the door erection and all, I can hear him snickering "you'll be back…you always come back". I turn back and yell "Shut up!" grabbing my head in frustration and he was gone.

A few seconds later Chris and Sam walk through the door with what smells like breakfast and coffee and they both look at me confused and concerned. I lower my arms and look at them and notice Sam looks down and away blushing, Chris spoke up first "You okay Josh?" he says starting to look around the room as if someone is hiding. I shake my head yes and turn and start to head upstairs still angry. I go to the bathroom and start the shower, cold only, no heat. I start grumbling to myself "who does he think he is?" and start mocking him "you always come back pshh what a load". I grabbed my toothbrush and started brushing my teeth, I spit rinsed my mouth. I opened the medicine cabinet to grab the floss and grabbed my medicine instead, popped a pill in my mouth waited for it to dissolve "we'll see about that!" I said to myself in the mirror and hopped in the shower.

Chris POV

Sam and I woke up before Josh and thought we should go grab breakfast for the 3 of us. We left quietly so we wouldn't wake up Josh since he was still sleeping. Once we got the food and we were in the car heading back I told her that Mike, Emily, Ashley, Jess and I are going camping for 2 days and asked if she wanted to come. Her face lit up which I immediately knew was a good sign, "That sounds awesome! … Why does it look like there is a catch?" she looks at me crossing her arms. "Wh-what do you mean catch?" I say nervously. She gives me her classic spill it look. "We want to invite Josh" she looks at me waiting for the problem, and technically there isn't one. "So you see every time I ask him to do stuff he says no. So I was thinking that maybe you can ask him?" She looks out the window and asks "What makes you think he'll say yes to me?" I shrug "I was thinking maybe if a girl asked him there would be a greater chance of him saying yes rather than no" I'm inwardly crossing my fingers that she'll say yes, I really do hope he says he'll come. He needs to get out the house more, I don't even remember the last time I've seen him in natural sunlight. "So you think a woman's touch will help?" she says looking at me questioningly, "precisely". She looks back out the window not answering, "Well?" she turns back and says "Sure, I just hope he doesn't say no to me either".

We get out the car and start heading toward the house carrying the bag and coffee, when we hear Josh shouting. We look at each other and continue walking toward the house, I open the door and Josh is holding his head almost like he's in pain. He looks at us and I ask him "you okay Josh?" I started looking around maybe someone else was here. He just nodded yes and went upstairs looking pissed off, I turned to Sam who seemed to be in a state a shock. I'll talk to him about it later.

Sam and I walk into the kitchen and layout all the food on the counter, selecting the ones we chose for ourselves and put Josh's in the microwave so it can stay warm. "Should we go check on him?" Sam said taking a sip of her coffee, "I thought about it but I think right now maybe he needs some space" I'm starting to get nervous, by the way he is acting I don't know if he's going to say yes or no. Sam starts asking questions about the camp site since we last minute started inviting more people we have to figure out the sleeping situation, since we're only allowed 2-3 tents depending on the size. She mentions she has a tent but that it may take a while to find, I feel my phone vibrate and grab it to see who it is.

Ashley: Good Morning! Are you ready for today?

Chris: Hell Yeah. By the way how many people can your tent fit?

Ashley: I have a big one that could fit about 4-5 people and a small one that can fit like 2 people if needed. I just got the big one this morning since we invited more people.

Chris: Look at you always prepared! Alright well Sam is in! We still waiting to ask Josh he's in the shower

Ashley: Well don't wait till the last minute we have to get there early enough to set up. Oh and Em text me this morning saying she can't make it she isn't feeling well all of a sudden.

While I'm texting Ashley I feel my phone vibrate and Mike's name pop up. I hope Mikes not bailing too!

Mike: HEY MAN! What kind of liquor should I get for later? I'm so ready for this!

Chris: Hmmm…Vodka. Make sure to bring juice for the ladies lol

Mike: Should I bring my pong set?

Chris: Hell yeah! It's on. REMATCH!

Mike: You trying to take my belt?

Chris: This year is my year! I'll buy some beers and coolers too for variety. Oh and Ash just told me Em isn't feeling well and she's not coming now. Is she okay?

Mike: Imma call you in a few, ANSWER

Chris: Okay? Sure

I turn to Sam who is now cleaning up her breakfast and washing her hands and let her know the update on the tents and she's relieved she doesn't have to go to her scary basement to find hers. I finish up my sandwich and start sipping on my coffee, when my phone starts to ring. It's Mike, I answer it and before I can even say anything he says in a serious voice "Where are you? And who are you with?" I was caught off guard but walk into the Livingroom to reply since he sounds serious. "I'm at Josh's with Josh and Sam." He then tells me to go outside so I'm not within ear shot of anyone, "alright give me a min" I peek my head in the kitchen and let Sam know I'm going to go outside for a few minutes. As I'm walking toward the front door I see Josh coming down the stairs he looks like he is in a better mood than he did earlier. "Where you going Cochise?" he says with open arms coming down the stairs. "I'm going outside real quick I'll be right back, your breakfast is in the microwave" I said pointing toward the kitchen and I walked outside and sat in my car to talk to Mike.

Sam POV

After Chris tells me he's going to go outside I text my mom quickly to let her know where I'm going to be tonight. She likes to know my every move now a days, which isn't a big deal considering what happened. I was so into my text to her I didn't even realize someone was in the room till I heard the microwave open and I jumped and gasped. "Chill out, it's just me" Josh says grabbing his breakfast smiling over me. I visibly relax "Josh you scared the shit out of me" he smiles while opening his sandwich and says "Well aren't you easy" and takes a big bite smirking. He comes around to the table and sits a couple of seats away, "soooo" I say as he takes a sip of his coffee. He looks at me and says "yes?" Suddenly I'm starting to feel nervous and losing my words. I'm trying to think how to word it and he's still waiting "spit it out woman" he says jokingly. "Well a few of us are going camping for a couple of days… and we were kind of wondering if you weren't busy… if you wanted to come too?" I look at him waiting for an answer, his face doesn't change he just takes a sip of his coffee. I'm mentally biting my nails, but I think that he really had to think about it. He stands up suddenly and says "Fuck it…sure I'm getting cabin fever being in this house anyway" I sat their shocked, he said yes. Maybe Chris was right he did need a woman to ask him.

I got up from the chair "Alright then, I'm going to head to my place and pack my stuff!" I say excited. Before I could walk out the door Josh asked "Do you want to ride up there with me?" I guess I hadn't thought this through taking the bus up there would be annoying and plus I'm pretty sure Ash is going to be riding with Chris. Riding with Mike and Em would make me feel like a 3rd wheel. "Sure. Pick me up around 11?" he smiles and gets up to walk me to the front door. I turn to him right before he opens the door. I just had to say something, "Josh?" he doesn't respond he just looks at me "about last night, I hope I didn't make you feel weird about sleeping with me. I felt like such a child since I didn't want to sleep alone and I-" he put his hand up to stop my rambling. "Say no more Sammy, we're friends and to be honest that was the best night's sleep I've gotten in a long time. So if anything you did me the favor." I couldn't help it I leaned in and hugged him, he was tense at first since I'm sure he wasn't expecting it but then relaxed and hugged me back. This hug was different that last night, it wasn't out of sadness or comfort it was a happy hug, he and I pulled back and smiled, "I'll see you later then" he looked like he was blushing and looked down at the ground while he was opening the door and said "uh yeah… 11" I walked through the door toward Chris' car.

As I approach Chris' car he quickly gets off the phone as I'm knocking on the window, he unlocks the door and I hop in. "So did you ask him?" he says nervously, I looked at him and made an unsure face and he said "I knew it! Damn!" I started smiling and I said "he said sure, he's picking me up at 11" Chris' jaw dropped "Did you ask the right Josh? Joshua Washington?" pointing at the house. I nodded my head laughing at him I can tell by his surprise that he is indeed excited that his best friend is going to be with us. "Alright then let me get you home to pack. I already have my stuff in the back I have to go grab a few things at the store and I'm going to scoop up Ash and meet you guys there" he starts driving toward my house and I start feeling excited. It's been a while since we actually did something out as a group lately we've all been at each other's houses and that's pretty much it. I really hope Josh enjoys himself, he deserves to have fun more than any of us.

After Chris drops me off at my house which took forever since we got stuck in traffic, I go straight to my room and start packing and plug up my phone to charge. I pack about 4 outfits, my bathing suit, a couple towels, toiletries, some Tylenol in case anyone has a hangover. I also raided my pantry for some snacks, since I'm junk food kind of girl. I jump in the shower brush my teeth, get out and throw my hair up in a clip. When I go in my room and look at the time "Shit it's already 10:52" I start going through my drawers and grab some jeans shorts and a plain white deep V neck tee. I grab my socks and start lacing up my sneakers, before I put them on I hear a knock on my door. I look through the peep hole and see the back of Josh, I open the door for him "Hey, I'm almost ready I just need a few more minutes." I move to the side and motion for him to come in. I tried not to stare but he looks good I mean weird to see him… out of his house. I ran upstairs and threw my toothbrush in my bag and jetted downstairs. He was walking around looking at old pictures of me, when I was younger I can hear him smiling and laughing call them Mini Sam. I sat on the steps next to my bag to finish putting on my sneakers and he grabs my bag. "This feels kind of light you think you got everything princess?" he says jokingly. "Oh your right I forgot my makeup bag" I say in a valley girl voice, then look at him normal and say "let's go" he opens the door and says "After you madam" I grab my jacket and curtsy and we walk toward his car laughing.

He seems to be in a much better mood, he puts my bag in the trunk along with his, as I hop in the passenger side. I text grab my phone and text Chris.

Sam: Hey Josh just picked me up, so we're going to be heading there soon. Are you guys there yet?

Josh hops in the driver's seat and puts his seat belt on, and turns on the radio and starts driving. It's so hard for me to try not to stare, he actually seems…happy. He has his shades on humming and drumming to the songs on the radio and to see him in something other than sweat pants is a pleasant change. He almost seems like the Josh I met when Hannah first brought me over to their house. I blush in response, since I had a huge crush on him back then, and turn to look out the window so he wouldn't see it. We were in a comfortable silence, we were just driving enjoying the view, and I look down at my phone since it vibrated.

Chris: Yeah sorry it took so long to respond, we were having some technical difficulties with the tent. Lol! Where are you guys at?

I look out the window and notice that I don't see many buildings anymore mostly trees and random convenience stores or gas stations every few miles. I turn to Josh and ask him how much longer, since Chris was asking. He looked down at his phone and said that his GPS says they should be there in about 30 minutes.

Sam: We should be there soon, About 30 minutes. Is anyone else there yet?

Chris: Cool! Jess, Ash and I are already here. We're waiting on you guys and Mike.

Sam: Emily is not coming?

Chris: Oh she said she wasn't feeling well…

At that same moment a car pulls up next to us honking, Josh lowers his window smiling. "MIKE!" and Mike yells out his window "JOSH!? No one told me you were coming man!" Josh has a smile plastered on his face, Mike waves at me smiling "Hey Sam!" I waved back smiling, he looks at Josh and puts a thumbs up with a kissy face, and I blush and turn toward the window to ignore them. I hear Mike say he knows a short cut and to follow him. Which Josh does follow him onto a dirt road and we got there in about half the time. Josh seems like he's having a great time so far, I hope it stays that way.
