Hey guys I was having some trouble publishing my first chapter as my computer broke down and lost all the unsaved documents. So people have been asking for joeys pov which is what I was intending to do anyway. I have seen the recent storyline spoilers (lucy and joeys break up and jake and Lauren's romance) and this is how I would like it to play out..

Note: this is 2 minutes before Lauren arrived.

Joeys pov: "joey please..." It was Lucy's nagging, annoying voice again. "Luck Luce go home" I said with a big sigh. "But joey you kissed me back.." "Yeah but that was a mistake. I told you earlier for at least the fourth time I don't love you, never mind like you!" I started to walk back to where Alice was sat in the booth just near the main door. "So what? I was good enough for you the first time round and now..." I butted in "and now a lot has changed!" I turned to Alice giving her a weak smile, she just looked back with a disappointed face. Lucy scoffed at my earlier comment. "What like..." I knew what she was going to say, she was going to say Lauren's name. But before she could break my heart (finish her sentence) I heard a familiar laugh. It was her lauren... The love of my life.

"Who's missed me?" I heard her say.

Lucy scoffed and smirked seeing Lauren's face fall seeing me. "Me!" I felt like saying but obviously I didn't. Instead I just stood there shocked. "Joey..." I turned around to see Alice looking worried but also sympathetic. I nodded and smiled turning back to lauren. But as soon as you could say"I love you" abi had rushed up to her. "Lo you're here!" She shouted, her smile not being able to go away. "Yes, I am! But why?" She replied with an excited but worried look on her face. "Oh yeah, it was just..." She trailed of seeing someone already grabbing Lauren's attention as they rushed into her almost knocking her over. "Lo, I thought you would have been gone forever!" "Hey whit, so then I'm guessing you didn't no that I was coming back." I sat down downing my beer. This was going to be a long day...

"I love you lauren sooo much!" Peter slurred. "And I think your sooo drunk!" She said with a laugh. "Come on Peter, lets get you home your making a fool out of yourself. I mean how could anyone possibly love lauren." I spat out my drink. "Err, who asked you?" Alive chirped up. Lucy scoffed. "Come on! You'll regret it in the morning!" Lucy dragged her twin up to the door by his collar. "And not just the killer hangover.." She added with a smirk sent Lauren's way. Lauren rolled her eyes got up to her feet and got to the bar. I watched her every move, lucy obviously noticing she shouted at the top of her lungs so everyone could here "you know joey slept with me just days after you entered rehab. And has had many other girls lined up ready to jump into bed with him." Both Alice and abi laughed awkwardly "I think your also drunk lucy joey wouldn't do anything like that!" Alice snapped. Abi looked uncomfortable which lauren noticed. "No it's fine, you are, all of you are.." She corrected herself now aiming her comments at the whole pub. "...Welcome to him!" She spat at me. She gave me a dirty look. "Wait lauren.." I had finally spoke for the first time. Well.. Not counting the times commenting "right" or "okay" or "Mmm" while Alice carried on babbling on about how Michael had fallen into Janice's supposed trap. "No..."

I hurried after her out of the pub just to be pulled back by Alice,abi,lucy,jack and Tyler. Alice, abs, Tyler what you doing? Alice and abi sighed loudly "oh joe.." Alice sighed again. "No let go of me... NOW!" I was starting to get angry now and Botha bi and Alice looked scared and let go. "Al I'm sorry.." "Just go joe!" She cut me off. I sighed and nodded. I jogged over to where lauren was, sat on the bench. "Lo..." "Don't!" I sat next to her. "Please lo... I was in a mess. I didn't know what I was doing. All those girls... They didn't mean anything! They were just distractions!" I tried explaining myself but she was having none of it. "You believed her over me! And there is no doubt you still do!" She was shouting now. "Please..." "Just stop joe" my heart melted as she interrupted me again. She stood up and left running the rest of the way to her house. She unlocked the door. I heard an evil familiar stifled laugh. "Ha, well who would of thought? Joseph branning rejected by a girl. His cousin..." "Just shiput up lucy.." I stormed to my house knowing lauren would never talk to me not knowing what she just found out...

Joey cried himself to sleep that night, not knowing that his true love also was.

Okay that's it for now, might update or do another chapter tonight and post tomorrow?! Review please. Should I carry on? This would be a full on story by the way.

Preview for next chapter:

"Hi my names lauren... Lauren branning!"

"Wow you could help me. I am a recovering alcoholic!"

"I like you.." Joeys heart melted hearing those words. Who was that with lauren?

I bet you can guess, let me know your thought and views on the story so far. And any ideas would be good!
