She looked down as Josh grabbed her hand. He had plenty of calluses the rubbed against the top of the smooth back of her own hand. Years of weaponry training caused the calluses no doubt. Still, it made him feel older than he was. She kept her eyes placed upon the sight of his hand holding her own as he talked. Trying to find a way to sneak out of that punishment? It was impossible. Felicity doubted that even if Houdini had found himself in Tartarus he would be able to get out of that mess. Despite what Josh was saying she still wanted to help him, though a sarcastic smirk flashed across her face briefly as he mentioned the gods giving her a favor, yeah, because that could totally happen to someone who betrayed them by setting the pieces in motion to bring the rise of Saturn again.
She gripped his hand as he told her to not focus on him and to rather focus on herself. Why couldn't he understand that she did worry about him? Sure, she was in a pickle too at the moment but she already knew how this story was going to end for her, the least she could do is try to change the fate of one of her closest friends. Why could he not understand that? He was her first crush, her first best friend. Sure, they had a rocky beginning but he was still always there and Felicity wanted to make sure he would be alive for others who needed him.
She looked up and into his icy blue eyes. Looking deep into them, trying to figure out a way to keep those eyes open for him to admire the rest of the world. As she looked into his eyes she was reminded of the times before the Saturn issue and how she would hang out with him. A smile played upon her lips as she recalled the first time she met Joshua Rogers. He had stolen her box full of papers important to her, yet he had returned it. Sure, part of her at the time wanted to skin him alive, but she couldn't bring herself too. Instead, she resented him, however, he always seemed to be around and soon they found themselves getting close and becoming friends. Then it started to get awkward when Josh started to use his flirtatious moves on her. She was stuck in between a rock and a hard place because she was finally realizing her feelings for Remus after casting aside any feelings for Josh because they were too close of friends and she didn't want to hurt him. Yet, she still ended up hurting him when she rejected him.
Felicity sighed sadly and then seemed to move on instinct as she leaned in close to Josh and placed her lips upon his breifly before pulling back, face red, now turned to the fire. What had caused her to do that? Maybe, since words weren't expressing how much she still worried about him that action would. Still, she was with Remus and he was with Rhia and what she had done was really wrong. "I'm sorry... I know you're with Rhia. It's just, you're still important to me and I wanted you to know that. I'll never stop worrying about you. You were one of my first really close friends." Felicity said, with a slight nervous fidget. She still loved Remus, she knew that and she was pretty certain Josh would know that too. It was just a spur of the moment thing that happened which could have been caused because of a mix of the emotion, hormones, and longing for the loved one back home. Either way, she really hoped Rhia never found out about because Felicity was certain that Rhia would make Saturn look like a theme park after she was finished with Felicity. Of course, she hoped Remus never found out either because then it would lead to a very awkward explanation. Seriously, stupid Felicity.
