Chapter Four
Meanwhile Joey and Brooke had finished viewing the house near Leah's and had already viewed two more, they stopped off at Noah's bar for a smoothie on their way back to the hotel, Joey walked to the bar to order the two smoothies for her and Brooke while Brooke sat down on the seatee in the bar and waited for Joey. After a couple minutes Joey sat next to Brooke handing her one of the two smoothies before Brooke could take a sip of the drink Joey grabbed it back of her, took a sip of it then gave it back to her. Brooke looked at Joey raising her eyebrows,
"What?" Joey asked slightly laughing "I had to check that you had the right one"
"Yeah yeah yeah, whatever you say Joseph" Brooke laughed but stopped slightly when Joey hit her lightly on the arm "Ouch, what was that for?" She said still laughing at Joeys face
"That was for calling me Joseph" She looked at Brooke who was still laughing "Stop it"
"I can't help it, I'm sorry" She said still trying to suppress her laughter "Okay okay okay I'll stop now promise" Finally Brooke regained control of herself and stopped laughing
"Thank you, so what do you prefer?"
"Jojo we have talked about this before I don't love men I love women"
"Brooke be serious which house did you prefer?"
"Honestly I liked them all but the first one was pretty impressive I mean it has five bedrooms, a pool, a front and back garden but... No gym"
"Yeah though you could join Summer bay super bods"
"Maybe, What about property number two?"
"It wasn't too bad but it's further from the schools and the beach than the first one, but the garden is bigger and it's closer to the city"
"Yeah I suppose but then again its only three bedrooms but then again it has a personal gym"
"Good point but do you wanna risk having a gym with..." before she had completed her sentence she was distracted by who entered Noah's bar.
"Jo? Jojo?" Brooke called out then slightly nudged Joeys arm grabbing her attention "What's up?"
"Huh, nothing just got a bit distracted that's all" She said her attention again going to the person who had entered the bar
"Distracted by what?" Brooke paused looking at the same person as Joey "Or should I say who?" After looking at the person and realizing that it was Sergeant Charlie Buckton along with Constable Watson although she didn't think that Joey had noticed Watson at all
"I don't know what you mean?" Joey said refocusing from Charlie to Brooke
"Yeah, you do, you've been staring at her since she entered the bar"
"I have not, Brooke, I'm taken remember" Joey said clutching to a necklace she was wearing
"I know your taken, but haven't you ever heard the saying, you can look but you can't touch" She said looking at Joey raising her eyebrows
"Don't be stupid Brooke I'm not looking at anyone"
"Sure whatever you say Joseph" Brooke laughed at Joeys reaction to again being called Joseph
"That's it game over your getting it" Joey said half laughing and half pretending to be serious
"Oh yeah, really what you gonna do laugh me to death?"
"No, I've got something better in mind" As she said that she reached for her smoothie and released a mischievous smile looking at Brooke who had automatically started slowly getting to her feet ready to run from Joey
"Jojo, don't you dare do what I think you're gonna do"
"Why not" She replied stepping closer to Brooke who was edging closer to the door, following Brooke step for step towards the door, readying herself to throw the drink.
"Okay, I'll stop teasing, I swear" Raising one hand in the air and placing the other on her heart "Scouts honor"
"Nope where's the fun in that?"
Brooke moved quickly towards the bar near the bar so she could escape through the bars entrance/exit. Before she could reach the door she realized that Joey was quickly approaching her so she stopped hoping that Joey would relent and put the drink down. Instead of backing down Joey removed the lid of the smoothie, wrenched her arm back and thrust the cup forward maintaining a firm grip on the cup allowing the smoothie to fly out of the cup towards Brooke. Before Joey had a chance to react, Brooke had ducked when she Joey pushed the cup forward so that the drink would miss her unknown to her though Charlie had made her way to the bar to order another drink and was exactly behind Brooke when she ducked for cover and had taken the full brunt of Joeys intended revenge on Brooke...
