The one with Joey`s Daughter
Joey is in his bed sleeping when he is awaken up by his screeching alarm clock.
"Ughhh!" he moaned as he pushed the snooze button for the second time.
The door to his bed room opened. A girl who was 9 years old walked ran in. She had wavy black hair and brown eyes. She was dressed in a yellow shirt, a pink jacket and skirt and pink sneakers.
"Dad! Get up!" she said, shaking Joey trying to wake him. "You're gana be late for your new TV show!"
Joey put his pillow over his head.
"Go away, Ally." He groaned.
Ally sighed.
"Alright….guess were doing this the hard way." She takes out her phone and goes onto an air horn app. She puts the phone by her father's ear. Suddenly the sound of an air horn goes off. Her dad jumped out of bed holding his hands on his ears.
"Okay okay! I'm up!" He yelled.
Ally laughed then turned off the sound. Joey sat on the bed thinking for a moment. She climbed on the bed and sat next to him.
"So today I'm filming…..what again?" Joey asked.
Ally laughed.
"The new show, daddy, the pilot episode for the drama on ABC family."
"...I knew that. I was just testing you." He replied.
She hugged her dad.
"Of course you were." She said sarcastically with a smile.
He smiled at her.
Joey and Ally sat at their kitchen table, eating cereal. Joey was dressed in a white collared shirt and black pants.
"I bet I can use this spoon to fling the piece of cereal into the drink on the counter." Joey said.
"No way, it's all the way over there!" Ally replied.
"I can do it." Joey replied confident.
He sat at the table put his piece of cereal on the spoon and flung it across the room to the counter and it lands in his glass.
"That's so cool!" Ally shouted. Then Ally looked at her cereal sadly.
"What's wrong?" Joey asked.
"Nothing." She replied not looking at him.
"No tell me. It's me and you now and whatever it is, I'm here for you."
She still doesn't look at Joey.
"I just….I just miss mom."
Joey nodded. "I know I miss her too."
"I don't understand, why she did…."
"Why did she left?" Joey replied.
Ally nodded.
"I mean we were always arguing and yelling. I guess all of that…made her fall out of love with me." He paused for second. "Ally, can I ask you something?"
Ally nodded.
"Why did you choose to stay with me? I mean I'm happy you choose to stay with me, but why? Your mother was the one who cooked and cleaned. I kind of forgot how to do all that. I had to ask Monica to teach me when your mom left."
Ally smiled.
"I didn't want you to be alone." Ally replied. "You're my dad and I love you. You always make me laugh and always know what to say to make me smile. You may not know everything but what you do know your great at. You've always been the best dad I could ever want."
Joey smiled then hugged his daughter.
"I love you." He told her.
"I love you too, Daddy."
"So it's Saturday. Do wana come to work with me?" Joey asked Ally with a smile.
Ally had a big smile on her face.
"Of course!" she shouted.
Joey and Ally arrived in the studio. There was lights everywhere and thousands and people rushing around. Ally looked around in amazement.
"This is so cool!" Ally said.
"Yeah I know." Joey smiled.
A women walks over to Joey, wearing a head set and holding a script in her hands.
"Okay good here." The women said. "You need to get into ward ore and then hair and makeup."
Ally snickered.
"You wear makeup?" ally questioned.
"All actors have to do it, even the boys." Joey replied. "I'll be right back. Just stay here and don't move. Okay?"
Ally pretended to be frozen. Joey smiled then kissed ally on her head.
He walked away. Then ally sat on the floor and played a game on her phone.
"Ashley Fields? Where is Ashley?!" the producer shouted as he entered the set.
Ally brought her eyes away from her game. A women with curly blonde hair and blue eyes walked onto the set. She was dressed in a red dress that reached down to the top of her knees. The dress had long sleeves and she wore black heels.
"Mom?" Ally said more to herself.
Ally ran over the set.
"Okay so were gana start soon. Do you have your lines memorized?" the producer asked Ashley.
"Of course. I`m always ready."
The producer smiled.
"Great that's what I like to hear."
As the producer left, Ally entered on to the set. Ashley saw Ally.
"Ally? What are you doing here?" Ashley asked.
"I came here with dad."
"Well where is he? He just left you here by yourself?"
"He had to-"
Just then joey walked on to the set he saw Ally talking with Ashley and his heart sank. Why was Ashley here? What was she telling ally?
"Ashely what are you doing here?" Joey asked.
Ashley looked over to joey with a look of disgust.
"I'm in this production. Holly Carter backed out and now I'm the female lead."
"You're what?!" he replied shocked.
"Do I have to use small words so you could understand? I am the girl lead in this show."
"But you can't be the female lead! I`m the male lead and we….you me were… and then were not…and now we`ll have to…"
Ashley laughed.
"Oh this is priceless. If I would have known you`d be here I would have brought my camera."
"15 minutes till show time!" the producer called out.
"Oh yeah. I would like to know why you left our nine year old daughter out here by herself." Ashley stated.
"I had get into ward ore I can't bring her in there with me when I'm getting undressed!" Joey yelled at her.
"What if someone tried to kidnap her? What if she got hurt?"
"She has a cell phone, she could easily just call me."
"You're so irresponsible! You couldn't call the sitter to stay with her, or send her to hang out with a friend. A place like this isn't a good place for a child. It's not safe."
"I thought it would be something fun for her. Were both actors and she had never seen a real set or a sound stage. Cause you never let her."
"Stop! Fighting!" Ally yelled.
"It all coming back to me now, why we broke up!" Joey said. "You're so controlling and nagging and paranoid! Oh let not forget health conscious! I should be happy you are gone! What kind of sick person won't let their family eat pizza! That's cruel!"
"Excuses me if I wanted to make sure my family was safe and healthy. God knows you didn't care you just sat on the couch all day and would now and then go to an audition."
"Stop!" Ally screamed. She was now in tears. "Stop it now!"
Ally ran off the set.
"Look what you did!" Ashley said to joey.
Joey and Ashley ran after her. They found her sitting on the floor crying in the hallway.
Joey sat down next to her then hugged her, she cried on his chest.
"Why do guys always do this?" she asked. "Why can't you guys get along?"
The producer walked over to them.
"I don't know what the hell is going on over here, and honestly I don't care! "The producer shouted. "You two need to get on the set now!"
"Can you just give us sec?" Ashley asked.
"No! I'm not paying you to talk to some punk ass kid! I`m paying you go on set and make me money!"
"Excuses me! "Joey yelled now standing up. "she's not some punk ass kid she`s my daughter!"
"Well I'm gana have you both fired if the two of you aren't on that stage in three seconds!"
Joey and Ashley run over to the set.
Ally followed and watched from the side. Between scenes they would argue. Eventually it was time for break.
"I don't know what's going on with you two but you don't fix it! I`m getting new actors!" the director yelled.
Ashley sat on the couch with her palms to her face.
"I have never been so unprofessional in my life. I usually can grin and bear it when a costar bugs me but with you…I just….I don't think I can do this."
Joey sat next to her.
"Of course you can, Your Ashley Fields. Your one of this country`s best actresses!"
"You really think so?"
"You know I do. We just have to…work on this I guess. I got it! I can pretend like you're not you and you can pretend I'm not me! There problem solved!"
Ashley laughed. Then looked into his eyes and smiled at him.
"I've missed hearing you laugh and seeing you smile. "Joey told her. "Nothing can compare to that smile. Well except…."
He smirked and looked at her body.
She rolled her eyes.
"I've missed you too. I haven't met a guy that is as sweet or as kind as you. And that can always manage to make me feel better when I'm at my lowest. You're really a great guy."
"thanks." He said halfheartedly. He didn't want to fall for her again. He knew she`d only break his heart again.
"So working on this getting along thing…" Ashley said. "Well maybe we can get some coffee some time as friends?"
"…..I don't know, I'm pretty busy lately." He doesn't look at her.
"Well if you're free, you know just give me a call."
"Breaks over!" the director yelled. "Back to your places people!"
Joey stood up from the couch.
"Joey...i just wana let you know. Adam met nothing to me." Ashley told him. "It was a drunken mistake. I know obviously that wasn't the only problem with our relationship but….I thought you should know."
Joey nodded.
