Game infrastructure NOT working properly (c++) - c++

Question

I have been designing my c++ console game and I have a question about the game loop. Whenever the game loops, I end up reinitializing my velocity variables in the constructor which sets them to "0". I have a couple ideas on how to solve this but it ends up ruining my game infrastructure and after a while gets confusing.
Can someone please tell me how to prevent my velocity variables from being reinitialized.
BTW I'll find out how to group my headers better later.
FPS.timerMilli(1) is a function that counts 1 millisecond before exiting function. (Trying to control FPS).
rectangle.cpp:

for (int verticle = 1; verticle <= h; verticle += 1) {
std::cout << "\n";
}
for (int horizontal = 1; horizontal <= h; horizontal += 1) {
std::cout << " ";
}
for (int x = 1; x <= width; x += 1) {
std::cout << ".";
}
std::cout << "\n";
//Number of sides
midWidth = width - 2;
for (int y = 1; y <= height; y+=1) {
//Draw sides
for (int x = 1; x <= h; x += 1) {
std::cout << " ";
}
std::cout << ":";
for (int x = 1; x <= midWidth; x+=1) {
std::cout << " ";
}
std::cout << ":\n";
}
//Bottom of rectangle

If you need your variable to retain it's value you could turn them into static variables.
