set directly after the play in season 3 from the points of view of both Joy and Jerome {alternate storyline}


No one will ever see
this side reflected
and if there's something wrong
who would have guessed it
Never Too Late, Three Days Grace


'Breathe Joy breathe' she told herself, 'you don't even like him' she was lying of course, she loved him, she loved him more than she had ever loved anyone, he was different she had had a crush on Fabian for as long as she'd known him but this one was new, how could he do that to her, one minute they were in love and the next they weren't, how she was going to get over this she didn't know. She thought back to how she felt when she was rejected by Fabian earlier that year, 'Why would anybody ever like you' that's what she told herself in her head, it wasn't that it made her feel better, she just believed it to be true. She really thought that this time would be different, but why did she think that.

'You've just broken up with her Jerome' the voice in his head told him 'stop looking at her like that'. Jerome was still trying to fathom why he had just broken up with Joy, she made him the happiest that he had ever felt in his life, yet she had tricked him, all this time he thought that their love was real but all along it had all been part of a master plan to get revenge on him, for how he had treated Mara. There were tears welling up in Joys eyes but he told himself not to care, this was a play and Joy was a good actress, after all she had been acting all along, he couldn't go on with the play anymore, he had to get out, he had to get away from the one girl he had ever truly loved but had broken his heart.


just a short prologue to open with, please feel free to review if you enjoyed it :)
