The entire cast was gathered on set in the studio. They all stood ready to embark on their last week of filming. Josh and Maya still stood next to each other, making sure that it wasn't apparent they were having issues. It was no one else's business and it never would be. Josh still held hands with Maya, giving her the space she needed but sneaking in those little touches when he could. Things between them were still tense. Every night they'd go home and it would be silent. Josh volunteered to sleep on the couch in their apartment, giving Maya the room. "Happy last week guys! You all have seen the schedule so we're still busy but I want us to finish strong here. We've made a really awesome movie and I want to see you guys feel that when we film the final dance for the movie later this week. Alright let's have a great day guys."

Everyone moved in their own separate directions as the work day began. Maya pulled her hand out of Josh's and started to walk towards hair and make up. "Maya wait!" Josh called out. Maya stopped walking and turned to face him. Her face was slightly sullen, but still happy to hear his voice.

"Yeah?"

Josh didn't have anything to say. He just wanted to hear her voice. "Um. I was thinking about picking up take out tonight. You know for dinner. Um," Maya stared at him slightly confused. "I was just wondering if you'd be into that."

Speechless, Maya slowly nodded. "Sure." She turned back on her heel and walked away, meeting Alexis in the hair and makeup trailer. Sighing, she ran her fingers through her hair before greeting everyone in the room. "Morning Alexis."

Alexis smiled at Maya and handed her a bottle of water. She knew things were tough with her right now but did her best to try and make her time at work pleasant. "Morning. Your day isn't too hectic so you'll probably get out early."

"Good. I could use a night off." She sat down in a chair and pulled out her phone while the team around her started to work on her for her scenes today. She scrolled through countless photos of Josh, just smiling to herself admiring him. He messed up that was without a doubt but that didn't mean she didn't want to still be with him. You infuriate me but I still miss you. The artist needed to get in front of Maya's face so she had to put her phone down, ending her moment of admiration.

She missed him but she wan't sure what the right thing to do was.

The day went by in a quick blur as both Josh and Maya were busy. Josh got to the apartment first, with take out in hand. They hadn't really spoken to each other in the days since he told her about the Cassie kiss but he was desperate to at least have a conversation with her, even if it was just small talk. He stood in the kitchen putting out the boxes and set the chopsticks down on the table. As he finished placing everything down he heard the front door open and close. He leaned to the side and saw Maya walking towards him. "Hi," he breathed.

Maya set her bag down on the floor and brushed her hair behind her ears. "Hi." She looked down at the table and smiled. "Did you get me egg rolls at least?"

Josh laughed and held up a small plastic bag. "I wouldn't dare forget them."

Maya laughed and sat down at the table. She grabbed box and opened it up, the heavenly scent hitting her nostrils. "Mhm," she moaned. Grabbing her chopsticks she dug in and stuffed food in her mouth. She looked up and saw Josh standing over her smiling. "Are you just gonna watch me eat or are you gonna eat too?"

Josh smiled and pulled out a chair and dug in himself. They ate together in a comfortable silence, even exchanging flirty looks to each other over their food. Josh set down his chopsticks and smiled. "So how have you been?"

Maya played around with her rice and shrugged. "I'm here. You?"

"Same." Silence fell between them again as Josh looked over at the clock. "It's getting late. I should probably go to bed. I hope you enjoyed the food." Josh stood and started to clean up his mess when Maya spoke up again.

Looking down at her food she said softly, "You can sleep in the bed tonight if you want. I wouldn't mind at all."

Josh perked up and stared at her. He didn't think she'd want him in there again after what happened. "Really?" he asked, trying not to get too excited. "Are you sure?"

Maya looked up at him and nodded. "Of course. It's your bed too. I never was going to ask you to leave it."

Josh smiled at her and carried his stuff over to the trash can. "Thanks."

Josh disappeared out of the room, leaving Maya to finish up the last of her food. As Maya chewed she thought about he looked today when he first approached her, talking about the takeout. He looked so nervous and eager to speak to her, it was cute. All day, Maya wracked her brain, trying to figure out what she needed to do in this situation. She still wasn't sure. She knew that Josh loved her but how could she build trust if she was still so hurt about everything? Maya turned her head as she heard the shower come on. He's showering.

Shaking the thoughts away, she got up and cleaned the rest of the food up. By the time she was done, she didn't notice that the shower had been turned off. Maya's bare feet thumped against the floor as she walked down the dimly lit hallway. Pressing her hand against the door, she walked in to see Josh walking out the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around his waist. Maya stopped in her tracks and stared at him for a moment before he looked up and met her eyes. Maya stuttered and averted her eyes. "Sorry," she apologized.

Josh ran his fingers through his hair as water droplets dripped down his chest. "Don't be. It's not like it's anything you haven't seen before."

Maya's eyes followed Josh as he walked over to a drawer and rummaged through it. The way his dancer's muscles flexed as moved his arms was mesmerizing. Maya didn't move a muscle as she watched his every move. "You look good," Maya said softly as began to shuffle her feet.

Josh looked back and smiled. "Thanks," he whispered. Maya broke her concentration and shuffled away into the bathroom, needing a moment to herself. Closing the door shut behind her, she leaned up against the wall and tried to focus her breath. Deciding what she wanted in that moment, Maya could only focus her brain one thing, him. She ran her fingers through her hair and opened the door she was leaning against and walked into the bedroom. Josh remained where Maya last saw him and looked up when Maya walked back into the room. "I thought you were going to go shower."

Maya's mouth was slightly open her pink lips just barely apart. "I was." She paused and stared at him from across the room. "And then I changed my mind."

She started to walk across the room to him with a sultry look on her face. Josh stared down at her and focused his eyes on her pink, plump lips. "Why is that?"

Maya reached a hand up and cupped his face. "Because I can't get you out of my head."

She closed the gap between them and smashed her lips onto his. The kiss was passionate and sensual as Josh hoisted Maya up on his waist, falling deeper into the kiss. Following his instincts he led them over to the bed and sat down on the edge so that she straddled him on its end. Breaking apart for a moment, he stopped Maya before she could go in for another kiss. "Are you sure you want this?"

Maya, only focused on his lips, nodded hungrily as she responded. "Yes."

Going back in for the kiss, Maya ran her fingers through Josh's brown hair and smiled as she kissed him. God, she missed this. She pushed him down onto the bed and leaned over him, kissing him hard. She ran her tongue on his bottom lip as he slipped his tongue into her mouth. Their tongues swirled around with each other before Maya sat up and pulled her shirt over her head, leaving her in just her bra. Josh reached up and slipped his hands behind her and fiddled with the bra before it came undone.

Her petite breasts bounced as they lost their support from the bra, her nipples hard and erect, just excited to be with Josh in that moment. Sitting up slightly, Josh captured Maya's left breast in his mouth as he heard her moan from the attention he gave the area. He pulled her back down with him, feasting between her two breasts, kissing them and caressing them gently. Josh flipped her over on the bed so that he was now on top, making his way up her body again, periodically stopping to kiss her neck before ending at her lips.

Josh pulled away and hovered over her, staring at her face, taking her beauty in. "You are so beautiful," he whispered. He brushed a stray blonde hair out of her face and kissed her again. Making sure to take his time with this, he kissed her slowly and softly, wanting to savor his moments with her. He swiftly removed her bottoms and pushed her legs up as kissed around her vagina before placing his mouth directly on her clit. With his tongue he swirled it around in his mouth, choosing to never let it slip out as he knew it would make Maya feel good.

Hearing her moans of confirmation that he was doing the right thing, made him excited. His towel still wrapped around his waist, his erection poked through the towel, pushing against the fibers of it. As Maya came again and again, he happily caught it all in his mouth. Feeling Maya tug on his hair, Josh brought himself up and allowed her to pull him to her mouth. As Maya kissed him, she sucked on his bottom lip, craving more and more of him. "Take the towel off," she muttered as she tugged on it.

Josh dropped the towel at her word and kissed her again as she pushed him to stand up. Standing up, they kissed and kissed as Maya reached her small hand down and touched his erect cock. She at first stroked it slowly as she felt him moan into their kiss. Kissing him one last time before she knelt before him she took him in both hands and looked up at him with big eyes as she placed his tip into her mouth.

Taking him in her mouth, Maya sucked and swallowed, smiling as she saw his eyes begin to roll in the back of his head. Her head bobbed back and forth, working with her hands until she felt him stiffen. She looked up at him and nodded as she pumped him in her hands, letting him know that he could. Placing the tip at the opening of her mouth she felt him finish inside before swallowing.

Still on her knees, staring up at him she pouted her lips before standing and kissing him again. He moved his hands down cupped her butt in his hands before placing her gently down on the bed. Determined to make this a slow, romantic moment like their first time Josh hovered over her and kissed her again before entering. Not changing from this position he locked eyes with her and held her hand as he focused on her and her alone. As their sex drives built and built he saw bite her lip as she whispered, "Baby I'm about to come."

Baby. She hasn't called me that in a few days. Feeling himself about to come too, Maya tightened around him as she came on his cock. Bringing on Josh's own orgasm, he finished deep inside her before slowly pulling out and kissing her again. "I love you," he whispered.

Maya, who he pulled into his arms, kissed his hand and rubbed her thumb across it before responding. "I love you too."

Silence fell between them for a moment before Josh let out a deep breath and kissed Maya's head. "I know you said that you needed time. So what have you decided?"

"Like I said before. I know you didn't want that to happen but it did. I think the only way we're gonna move past this is time." Josh smiled. "I'm still going to be hesitant so I may be acting different. And I may need to talk through some things at random times but I still want to be with you."

Josh was of course, happy to hear the news. Knowing they still had a long way to go, he took a moment and silently promised himself that no matter what things would be a million times better. He'd never put himself in the position to lose her again.
