Author's Note: I know that this chapter is extremely short but I did not want to add it to the previous chapter because I did not want you guys to have too much read.


Later that day, after school, Dawson, who was carrying film equipment, was walking down the hall. As he turned the corner, he heard something. He stopped moving and he realized that is was someone crying. He set down the film equipment so he could be able to investigate. He walked around the corner to find Joey.

She was sitting down on the floor with her hands covering her face. Just as she removed her hands, she found Dawson there. She simultaneously looked up as he walked in front of her. They were both surprised and curious to see each other.

"Joey, are you okay?" Dawson approached.

"Like you care." She said so coldly.

"Well you're obviously hurt. Do you need a doctor?" He wondered.

"Yes, I am hurt Dawson. But I don't need a medical doctor." She emphasized.

After looking at her for sometime, Dawson knew that Joey was in emotional pain. He opened his mouth and kindly said, "What can I do to help you?"

Joey looked at him and she could tell that he was seriously willing to help; she said, "If you don't have any plans, can you just sit down with me?"

Dawson did not even have to think about his answer, "No problem."

After Dawson sat down next to Joey, he knew that there was more he could have accomplish, so he said, "Would you like to talk?"

Those four words were the most comforting words Joey had heard in months. She had not actually talked to anyone about her problems. The world was so callously secluded. She hated feeling alone.

"Do you have the time?" She said.

"Yes." He answered honorably. He wanted to listen!
