"Joey... you here?" Sophie questioned upon opening the unlocked front door.

"Yeah I'm in here Soph come on through" Joey replied.

"Jo why was your front door unlocked, anyone could have walked in." Sophie questioned.

"I knew you'd be home soon, and I started watching Romeo and Juliet so didn't want to get interrupted even if it was by someone as cute as you so just left it unlocked for you" Joey winked. "Why are you getting so touchy about it anyway?"

"No reason, just I...well I was just worried that something might have happened... but don't worry about it as I can see everything is totally fine." Sophie reluctantly said.

"Okay..." Joey is sat on the sofa oblivious that Sophie was still talking; she felt like something in her life was missing, something didn't feel right. She had entered her own little world for a few minutes.

"After what happened on the boat I want to make sure your okay." Sophie continued. "It was a big trauma Jo, you were in a coma! In intensive care for 2 weeks before the doctors even thought about waking you up, you can't just sit there and act like nothings happened."

Joey only heard the last few words of what Sophie has said "you can sit there and act like nothing's happened", the thing was that Joey couldn't remember what had happened, she remembered waking up and seeing all these faces hovering over her pointing lights in her eyes asking her if she was okay, she remembered the beeping, the continuous noises of all the machines she was hooked up too. At that moment she knew something was seriously wrong. But she couldn't remember what had happened, where she had been or what had happened in the last 2 years. But Sophie, she remembered Sophie she'd been on the trawler with Joey, they looked out for each other, and well that's what Sophie had told Joey. She said that they were best friends on the boat, practically inseparable. But there was a look in her eye to show Joey that she wasn't telling her everything. But Joey couldn't quite figure out what it was. That didn't matter though. After the accident Joey reconnected with Sophie and nothing has stopped them developing maybe the world's best friendship.

Joey didn't care about what had happened. It was for this moment she was living, grateful that she was still alive.

"Jo are you listening to me?" Sophie questioned.

"Yes, well no not really but stop worrying okay your starting to act like you're my mum and you're anything but that." Grinned Joey. "Now come over here and give me a hug, Joey needs some love"

" I see you've have a productive day" Sophie stated looking down at the empty bowl of which its contents would have been cereal and only now noticing that Joey was still in the pyjamas, only to then glance at the TV and see the end credits of Romeo and Juliet still scrolling down the screen.

"Why yes I have, I didn't just sit around and do nothing ill have you know, I've been looking and my future. I've decided what I'm going to do like career wise." Joey beamed

Sophie's head shot around and she stared at Joey inquisitively as too what she was going to say. "If it's any profession that could get you killed I'm not even letting you think about it"

Joey slowly got up from the sofa aware that what she was about to say would go down very well with Sophie. She slowly picked up her empty bowl, and then cautiously moved in the direction of the kitchen. She knew Sophie would not like her career choice but it's the only job that really took her fancy well that and the all the amazingly hot co-workers she would have.

She returned to the living room to find Sophie sat in the same position still waiting for Joey to tell her what she had chosen; Joey peered across at her before preparing herself to run so she wouldn't have to deal with the response that Sophie would have to offer.

"I'm going to train to be a fire-fighter" Joey mumbled.

"Jo I didn't hear what you said, talk like a normal person, it's really not that hard well for you I guess it is because your far from normal." A look of 'oh no you didn't' spread across Joey's face.

She would have to take her revenge on Sophie later right now she wanted to see her reaction because that would be priceless.

"I Joey Collins have enrolled to start training to be a fire-fighter" She spoke with the biggest smile plastered onto her face.

"JOEYYYYY" Sophie screamed.

And that was Joey's cue to run, she jumped on to the first step, made a leap for the third but her foot missed the step, she plummeted to the floor bouncing of the bottom step and landing on a heap on the floor.

"Holy shit!" Sophie exclaimed as she rushed over to check that Joey was still alive.

"Fuck, my fucking head, why do I always fall at the wrong moment!" Joey moaned.

"Joey? Jo? Are you okay? I'm going to call an ambulance." A worried Sophie announced.

"No don't, I'm fine just a bump to the head, a kiss would make it better" Joey grinned but there was no smile from Sophie.

"But Jo that was one hell of a fall, are you sure your okay, you can be such a cluts sometimes" Sophie countered.

Joey slowly started raising herself off the hard wood floor. "I think I'm just going to go upstairs and lie down, will you be okay letting yourself out, thanks bye." Joey rushed up the stairs in an attempt to avoid more concern from Sophie and a discussion about wanting to become a fire-fighter. Joey took extra care when climbing the stairs making sure every step was stood on just to avoid another fall.

Joey lay on her bed, her eyes slowly closing. She began to sleep, a chance where only dreams could fill her head.
