Double, and think a little bit about my next call in case partner responds 2♣

If I pass, then I'll be worrying a lot about my next call if partner doubles.

4H if partner doubles

I like that the opponents are now silent

I think 2♠ is better. We are showing a strong hand, no long suit, no heart fit, no trap pass and no NT bid. Plus, we can always jump to 4♥ on the third round if we still think it wise.
