JOEY/PACEY'S HOUSE
8: PM
Amy was sitting on her aunt and Uncle's couch looking at her hands. Joey came into the living room carrying a cup of coffee and some bandages. "You called Uncle Pacey?" Amy asked. Joey nodded.
"Yeah I did. And he probably told Jack and Doug. Amy we just want to help." Joey said.
Amy nodded. "I don't know if I can get help. Look what did to me when Douggie came to the school. What's he gonna to me when he knows everyone is helping me. Or worse what will do to dad's job." Amy said through tears.
Joey sat down pulled Amy to her. "We'll figure it out. Hey do me a favor tell me about Ty is he nice?" Joey asked. And so Amy told about Ty.
9: PM
JACK/DOUG'S HOUSE
Pacey sighed after her heard the bedroom door slam. "He ain't gonna wanna not confront her. Hell I'm with him Douggie. Let's see if she'll talk to us now." He said.
"No,. Pacey you didn't see her at the school. She's fighting this in her own way." Doug said. Pacey was about to say something more when Jack came back down in a sweatshirt and long pants and shoes.
"Where you going?" Doug asked.
"To get her. She may not want to talk but she needs to know that no matter what someone will be there." Jack said grabbing his keys. He hadn't gotten the door open when the back door came open and Amy slipped in.
"I know that." She said. Pacey Doug and Jack turned to see her standing at the living room entranceway. The bruises were covered. But her face was puffy.
"Hey Ames." Pacey said.
"Hey. Aunt Joey wanted me to tell you she wants you home." Amy said moving back into the kitchen. Doug stood up and patted Pacey on the back.
"You need anything call us." Pacey said moving out of the house. Doug shut the door and took Jack's hand and walked back into the kitchen to see her sitting at the island reading something.
"Amy how was school today?" Doug asked.
"Fine." She said sipping her tea.
"Well that's good. I was thinking if you feel up to it we could maybe take a trip up to Boston and see Dawson. I'm sure he would love to see us." Jack said.
Amy smiled slightly. 'Sounds good. I'm gonna go and get ready for bed." She said walking up the stairs.
Doug sighed. "She's not gonna talk." He said.
Jack nodded. "She's scared. More now than ever" He said.
"Yeah come on Babe let's go to bed." Doug said taking Jack's hand and walking toward the stairs.
MIDNIGHT
Amy got up and walked down the stairs and sat down on the couch and flipped the tv on. Nothing seemed to be going right. The Dentworth problem was getting worse. Not to mention Doug's little visit to the school didn't help much. Amy leaned over and sobbed into her hands. "I can't keep doing this. It's only gonna get worse." She sobbed harder. She didn't notice Jack come into the living room.
"No you can't." He said.
Amy jumped a little and turned to see Jack standing at the entrance to the living room.. "How long you been standing there?" She asked.
"Long enough to know that it's getting worse." He said. Amy sighed and looked down. "I know about him hitting you this afternoon." He said coming and sitting down on the couch beside her.
"Aunt Joey told you didn't she?" She asked.
Jack shook his head. "She did. But I can see the bruises on your face. Why didn't you tell us?" He asked.
"Cause I thought it was innocent. At first." She said leaning back and laying her head on the back cushions.
"But then he'd forced more. And then it got worse. Am I right?" He asked.
"Yeah. Started back when school first started. 2 weeks after we got everything squared away he gave me the first big exam. I figured I was getting good as I was doing." Amy said. "Wrong." She said.
Jack smirked. "It was harder than the rest. I know we looked at yours then Jesse's." He said.
"About 2 months ago he I guess got this idea I liked him in other ways. It was just me trying to do better in school." Amy said sighing. "Then it just started getting out of hand. When he found I would do anything to not ruin your job he latched on and every time I threaten to tell the principle he threatens your job." Amy said.
Jack sighed. "We'll get this figured out. I promise." He said.
"Thanks." She said .
Jack pulled her to him and leaned back and turned the channel to Nick at Nite. "Let's watch some Bewitched. See if Mrs. Kravitz can figure it out." He said. Amy smiled for a bit.
