Title: Fall To Pieces
Disclaimer: Joel and Ty are mine everyone else belongs to u know who! Except Jonesy who is being held captive in my wardrobe! Hehehe! The songbelongs 2 Leann Rimes.
Summary: Set after PJ tells Jo he doesn't love her. Jo was upset so she went to the pub where the new doctor in town Joel Harrison offered her a drink to cheer her up. They hit it off and Joel asked her to dinner. A month later she moved in with Joel and his younger sister Ty. Ty has taken to Jo as an older sister and always goes to her for advice. Jo is happy with Joel and is glad that she decided to move on. PJ on the other hand is not happy. He can't stop thinking about Jo and how he screwed up their relationship. Jo wants to be friends with him again but he doesn't want any part of it because he loves her too much.
"Ty where are you?" Jo asked as she searched the kitchen for the young teenager. "Come on Ty this isn't funny. I promised your brother I would have you at school on time for once."
"I'm not going!" Ty yelled from her hiding place. Jo turned around and followed the voice.
"Come on Ty what happened couldn't have been that bad?" She searched through cupboards in the kitchen.
"Are you kidding I was humiliated in front of the entire school." Ty spoke again and Jo turned to the pantry.
"I'm sure it wasn't that bad." She walked over and opened the pantry door where she found Ty sitting on a box of milk cartons.
"It was. Those girls are horrid. They hate me and they always want to make life terrible for me. I'm not going back there."
"Come on Ty." Ty turned her head and crossed her arms refusing to move.
"You know I went through the same thing when I was your age. I just started at a new school, I didn't fit in and all the girls teased me."
"Why would they tease you? Look at you, you're beautiful."
"So are you Ty. You are the best looking teenager I've ever seen."
'You're just saying that."
"No I mean it. You're really beautiful Ty."
"No I'm not. My hair is horrible, I'm ugly and I have a big nose!"
"Who said that you have a big nose? Your nose is not big. It's beautiful."
"Yeah right."
"Hey I'll tell you what. If you come out of that cupboard then I'll do your hair for you and I might even let you borrow some of my makeup."
"Really?' Ty looked up at Jo.
"Of course." She nodded. Ty slowly stood up beside Jo. "We'll show those girls who's better looking." Jo smiled and wrapped her arm around Ty's shoulder.
"Sorry I'm late!' Jo cried as she rushed into the station. "Ty was refusing to come out of the pantry."
"What was she doing in the pantry?' Jonesy asked as Jo walked past towards the locker room. It had only been three weeks since Jo and Joel got together and everyone had already been introduced to Ty.
"Long story." Jo walked into the locker room, dumped her stuff then walked back into the main office.
"So what are we up to today?" Jo asked.
"Not much. Paperwork mostly." Jonesy replied.
"Yeah and you and I are out on patrol this afternoon." Ben informed her.
"Okay. So paperwork it is then." She sat down at her desk.
"So tell me how did Ty come to be in the pantry?" Jonesy asked with a laugh.
"Apparently some of the girls at school had been teasing her or something and she didn't want to go near them so she hid from me."
"How did you manage to get her out?" Ben asked.
"Convinced her I would do her hair up and let her put on a little makeup."
"Did it work?"
"Yeah course. Wouldn't be here if it didn't." Jo laughed.
"So you and Ty get along pretty well then?"
"Course. She's like the sister I never had."
"So she doesn't mind that you're going out with her brother?" Jonesy asked
"No she thinks it's great. To tell you the truth so do I. I like Joel very much. He's a really great guy." Jo started going on about her new boyfriend and PJ couldn't help but feel jealous.
I fall to pieces
Each time I see you again
I fall to pieces
How can I be just your friend
"He's even taking me up to the snow for the weekend." Jo replied.
"Just the two of you?" PJ asked.
"Yeah. Ty's staying with Dad for the weekend. We're dropping her off on Friday night before we head off."
"Where are you staying?" Jonesy asked.
"His parents own a cabin in Falls Creek. It sounds so romantic." Jo said dreamily. That was all PJ could take so he walked back into his office.
"Right." Jonesy replied. "So you think he's going to pop the question?" he asked jokingly.
"Jonesy!" Jo cried and she threw a pen at him. "We've only been going out for a month."
"So my friend was going out with his girlfriend for two weeks before they got engaged." He threw the pen back at her but it missed, it hit the desk and bounced into Ben's head.
"Hey watch it you two!" He cried as he picked up the pen. He grabbed another pen and threw one at each of them. Tess walked out of Tom's office just in time to see pens' flying across the room and Jonesy and Jo both ducking for cover.
"Hey that's enough!' She cried and the fun stopped. "Aren't you guys supposed to be working?"
"Sorry Tess." Jo apologised and hung her head still laughing silently.
"Yeah sorry Serge." Jonesy blushed a little embarrassed.
"Jo have you given that case file to PJ yet? He's been asking for it."
"Ah no." Jo replied. "I was just about to." She grabbed the file, stood and headed towards PJ office and knocked on the door.
"It's open." PJ called.
Jo slowly opened the door, walked in and placed the file on PJ's desk without saying a word.
As she was walking out she could feel PJ's eyes watching her. She stopped, thought for a second then marched up to him.
"What is your problem?" She asked.
"What are you talking about?"
"Is there something wrong with you or are you just arrogant. We have to learn to work together whether you like it or not and if you cant then that's your problem because there is no way I am going to sacrifice my job for you." Jo shouted. PJ stood so he was inches from her face. Then he leaned in and kissed her.
"What are you doing? Get off me." She pushed him away then slapped him.
"I've moved on PJ. It's about time you did too. It's not my fault you're too ignorant to see that I don't want anything to do with you romantically anymore. If you cant deal with that fine but don't go trying to ruin my relationship with Joel. Unlike you he actually told me he loved me. And you know what I love him back so you can get fucked PJ!" She turned on her heel and walked from the room.
PJ's sat back down and mentally slapped himself.
'You stupid bastard you've done it now. She'll never forgive you for that. You've blown your chances of ever getting her back.' He sighed and closed his eyes.
You want me to act like we've never kissed
You want me to forget, pretend we've never met
And I've tried and I've tried but I haven't yet
You walk by, and I fall to pieces
I fall to pieces
You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who'll love me to, the way you used to do
But each time I go out with someone new
You walk by and I fall to pieces
You walk by and I fall to pieces
