Joey, Pacey, and Alexander
Chapter 11.
Author's Note. I got a letter from Gloria who told me to continue so here I am with the next chapter.
"Alex! Can you bring me a diaper?"
"No. I'm watching TV."
"I swear if you don't turn off that darn television off ----"
"Here you go sweetheart." Pacey said handing over a diaper. He kissed her on the cheek.
"How's my girl doing this afternoon?" Pacey cooed to Haley.
"She's been crying and sleeping. Haley's been a good girl" Joey clarified.
"That's my girl."
"Pacey. Will you get Alex off that TV. He's been driving me nuts. He hasn't helped or listened to me at all."
"Okay. I'm right on it."
**********************************************************************
"Hey buddy. Whatca doing?"
"Watching TV."
"I see that. Do you want to go to the zoo with me tonight?"
"Will Mom and Haley come with?" Alex said frowning.
"No. Just you and me."
"Okay." Alex leaped into Pacey's out-stretched arms.
**
"Joey. Alex and I are going to the zoo."
"Okay. I'll get my things."
"No Jo. You stay home with Hal and we guys are going there by ourselves."
"Okay. You two have fun."
Joey kissed her nephew right before they left.

"Alex. I want to talk to you." Pacey said sitting on a bench, patting the seat next to him for Alex to join him.
"Sure what is it."
"Joey has been saying that you don't listen to her."
"So. She's too busy with Haley anyways."
"Al. She is in charge of you. You better do what she says. I know we have been paying a lot of attention to the baby but how about every Sunday morning just you and me go to a different place? And every Tuesday, I will stay home with Haley and you and Jo go somewhere?"
"That sounds fun!"
"Good. Now lets look at some monkeys!"
************************
"Pacey where are you?" Joey said out loud to her self. She was rocking the baby in her arms. Haley had a high fever.
"Shh. Shh.. It's all right. Momma will take good care of you." Joey placed a new bottle into her mouth. The baby quieted down a little bit but was still fussy.
"Rock a bye baby, cradle will fall, down will come baby, baby and all." Joey didn't really know the words that well but what was a two month old going to do.
"Shh. Shh. It's okay." She finally had her put to sleep. She continued rocking her until a loud bang came from the hall way.
"Ohhh! Ouch. Mommy!" Joey quickly but gently got up from her rocking chair and went to Alex.
"What's the matter baby?" She asked softly touching the bloody knee.
"I ran into the door and fell on a nail."
"Pacey! I told you to fix that. But it's no use now." Pacey downed his head like a puppy who just got into trouble and scolded.
"Mommy. It hurts. Help me!"
"Okay. Let me give Pacey Haley and then I will come with you to the bathroom."
Alex limped all the way into the bathroom.
"Joey. I forgot to take the nail out."
"I don't care. What done is done. Now right now I need to get into that bathroom before he smears blood everywhere. But after that we need to go to the hospital."
"Why."
"Feel her head. She has a fever."
"Okay"
Joey handed her over to Pace and left down the hall to where Alex was.
