"Orphan, orphan she's a stupid orphan!!" A group laughed around one girl on her knees. She clenched her fists and ran off, passing a little boy. She was crying behind a tree her clothes with dirt on them, her hair up in a ponytail from a bow. One of her knees was cut covered with one hand, her other covering her face.

"Hey...you okay?" A voice asked and a girl looked up and saw it was the little boy.

"I'm...fine, I-I'm not crying." The girl sniffed wiping the tears away. He looked at her like she was an alien. She had tears starting to form again wishing he would leave her alone.

"Veronica's a meany- head but...I'm not." He smiled out his hand. The girl smiled and took his hand, pulling her up. The boy had short spiky dark brown hair and was a little taller than her.

"My names Josh what's yours?" Josh smiled his front tooth missing.

"My names Jessica." Jess smiled walking back to the swings, Josh right by her.

"You talk to much,
but maybe that's your way
We're breaking up the silen-"

Jess slammed her hand on the alarm clock shutting it off and yawned. She jumped off her bed and looked in the mirror, she lifted her shirt up a little and sighed. The knife wound that Josh's mom left was now a scar, She walked into Chiros room. He was still asleep and she giggled. Jess jumped onto his bed and Chiro jumped up freaking out. He landed on the ground taking deep breaths.

"Jess are you trying to kill me?" He yelled getting up.

"Aww, you saw through my plot." Jess smirked. He sat back on his bed and glared at her. Chiro held her close and kissed her on the forehead.

"What am I going to do with you?" He asked her, and she smiled at him.

"I don't know but you better figure out something soon before I give you a heart attack." Jess laughed softly.

"No kidding." He chuckled. Jess gave a small smile and sighed. She was more than thankful that the team was letting her live ther, still her heart hurt only worse knowing the restaurant was destroyed. Chiro cupped her face, so she was looking up at him. His eyes showed concern wiping a few tears away, apparently she was crying.

"What's wrong?" He asked, she looked at him and smiled weakly.

"It's nothing...it's just that...the restaurant is the only home I've really had, and now it's gone. I love staying here! It's every girls dream it's." Jess was cut short when Chiro kissed her.

"You talk to much, don't worry you don't need to cry I'm here." Chiro smiled as Jess tears fell faster. He pulled her into his lap, she smiled and rested her head on his chest. After a few minutes Jess walked back to her room to change. Unfortunately there was more to why she was crying. She never really lied to Chiro but if she told him that she kept on having dreams, no, nightmares about Josh that would make things too complicated.

(Flashback)

Jess was standing there in the never ending darkness with nowhere to run, and nowhere to go. All she could see was a large chair, that was a few feet away from where she stood, and in it sat a familiar face.

"Hello, Jessica?!" The boy said in the chair. Millions of different emotions filled her, tears starting to fall. She wanted to run and hug him, but her feet wouldn't move.

"Josh, what do you want." She asked desperately.

"Nothing in paticular...I miss you." Josh said as he stood up. He placed his hands in his pockets and walked towards her. Now they were just a feet apart.

"You too...I wish you were alive so much." Jess cried as he pulled her into a hug. When they pulled back he had a smirk, confusing her.

"So tell me Jess..." Josh placed a hand on her cheek, he leaned closer to her. Jess heart began to race and blushed, she tried to move away but she couldn't. "Do you love me or him?" He asked as he pressed his lips to hers. He made the kiss go deeper. Jess closed her eyes.

(End Flashback)

Jess shivered. Everything was too weird. She didn't want to admit it, but she did love Josh, whether she liked it or not she truly, honestly, did love him. However, Josh was dead, while Chiro was still here, willing to give everything up for her. Jess shook her head, and tried to clear her mind. She took a quick shower, dried her hair putting it in a braid. Putting on some comfy jeans and a sweater before walking back to Chiro's room, entering the hallway, down Chiro's tube to the control room.
