Sorry for not updating this for a few weeks. College has just been stressful, the drama with Jouren as well is making me lack in my stories, but watching old (yet at the same time heartbreaking) clips of them is helping :)

Enjoy :)

Richard slammed his car door and shut and lent against the steering wheel. He had drove nearly all over Greece looking for her, but there was no sign. He was in for harsh word with Tanya when he walked through that door. He gathered up his courage and climbed out of his car, shutting the door behind him. He took a deep breath and headed up the path and into the house.

'Where is she? Is she okay?' were the first words to come out of Tanya's mouth when she saw Richard. Richard gulped silently and shut the living room door.

'I can't find her. She lied about going to Demi's'

'WHAT?' shouted Joey, his protectiveness over his girl coming out.

'I drove literally all around Greece. Theres no sign of her anywhere' said Richard.

'Richard! The one thing I asked you to do when we moved here and you can't even do that properly!' shouted Tanya. Max tried to calm her down, but she shrugged his hand away from her. Joey was looking out of the window, when he saw someone walking up the path, holding something.

'SHIT! TANYA!' screamed Joey, rushing for the front door. He swung it open and lifted the unconsious form of Lauren out of Dylan's arms, not realising who it was. He carried Lauren inside and placed her gently on the sofa, stroking her hair.

'You're okay, baby. You're at home. You're safe' Joey whispered to her. The living room door shut and Richard joined him at Lauren's side.

'Where did you find her?' Max asked Dylan.

'She was on the beach, sat on a bench... But the only thing was... she was acting like she didn't know me or her own name...' Dylan explained. It was then when Joey reconizged the voice. He stood up and turned round.

'Dylan?'

'Joey, long time no see' Dylan replied. Joey breathed in deeply.

'What the hell areyou doing here?'

'Moved out here. Nothing left for me in Newcastle, so thought I'd broaden my horizons and move here, soak up the culture and the sun, yet who do I find? Lauren' said Dylan. Joey narrowed his eyes.

'I swear if you've done something to her, I'll kill you'

' I haven't done anything. It took her, standing in the middle of the motorway to remember who I even was!' said Dylan. Tanya let out a gasp and grabbed Dylan by the shoulders.

'What do you mean by that?' she shrieked.

'When I saw her, it like she had been brainwashed completely. She couldn't even remember her own name, for christ sake!' Dylan shouted. Joey frowned, before the answer hit him and he turned back to Lauren.

'Richard, call an ambulance!' Joey said, the panic evident in his voice

'Why?' Richard questioned

'If she's gone to Foster's... God knows what he's done to her!' said Joey, watching as Richard rushed for the phone...

It was the next day when Lauren woke up. She glanced around the room and realised someone was holding her hand. She started to panic when Joey's face appeared infront of her.

'It's okay, baby. It's okay' he assured her. Lauren looked round the room and realised she was in an instiution.

'I'm back to Square One..' she sobbed. Joey wiped her tears away and kissed her gently.

'It's going to be okay, you're going to get through this and I'll be helping you... Nothing is going to happen to you..'

'No... I mean in here' said Lauren, tapping her temple. Joey looked at her sorrowfully and grasped her hand.

'You're going to be fine, baby. I assure and promise you' he promised, kissing the back of her hand. The door suddenly opened and Lauren tensed.

'Joey, I don't want him anymore' Lauren said, her voice cracking. Joey stood up and looked at Foster.

'So, you're Foster' Joey said

'And you must be Joey. She's told me all about you' sneered Foster. Joey looked at him up and down. He looked like the sort of man who would brainwash girls.

'We want someone else. You're done with her'

'She's my patient' said Foster

'Are you deaf? We don't want you! You. Are. Finished. With. Her' said Joey. Foster stared at him, before clicking his pen and turning, walking out of the room. Joey watched as he rounded the corner and out of sight. He turned back to Lauren was sobbing heavily. He rushed towards her and gathered her up in his arms.

'It's okay, baby! I've got you. I've got you!' Joey said, sitting against her headboard and pulling Lauren onto his lap.

'I love you... I love you... I love you' Lauren whispered, through her tears, before falling asleep, still saying the words to Joey, who had tears of his own slipping down his face...

Joey awoke later that same day to Tanya shaking him by the shoulder. He blinked and realised he had fallen asleep with Lauren. Tanya lifted Lauren off him, so he could move, before placing the civers iver her daughter gently.

'You go back to mine and get some rerst... I'll stay' whispered Tanya. Joey nodded and kissed Lauren forehead, before turning to Tanya and hugging her.

'I don't like this place' Joey whispered

'Me neither' Tanya whispered back. Joey broke the hug a few seconds later and smiled weakily at Tanya, before leaving the room, but not before casting one last look at Lauren over his shoulder...

The next morning, Joey was woken by his phone going off. He groaned and answere dit blindly, as he was still half asleep.

'Hello?' he muttered

'...'

'Who is this?' Joey asked. After the convosation ended, Joey frowned. Why would he want to see him? He sighed and pulled on his jeans and trainers, grabbing a fresh top, one what Lauren had stolen from him and claimed it as hers, and throwing it on. He walked out of Lauren's room and headed to Richard's room to wake him up.

'What?' groaned RIchard

'I need your help' said Joey, making Richard frown...

'Why the hell are we here?' Richard asked Joey, as they stood outside Foster's house. Joey didn't just walked up to the front door, wanting to get this meeting over with.

'Come in, and I see you've brought company' said Foster, when he opened the door. Joey nodded and Foster stepped aside to let them in. Joey and Richard following Foster down to his 'couselling room'.

'This is where you do your sessions? Make no wonder Lauren didn't like you in the end' muttered Richard.

'Please, have a seat' said Foster, montioning to the two chairs. They boys sat and waited for Foster to start his explanation.

'I got too close to her. And I apologize. I couldn't help myself, she's a beautiful and I just simply got too close. But it's what I do to get inside my patients minds-'

'What? Brainwashing them till they can't remember a thing?' exclaimed Joey

'I'm a maverick. There was must to correct in that girls head and I almost manged it, and I have other ways what I'm going to try on her-' Foster was cut off again, this time from Richard.

'Joey told me you're not her counseller anymore' he stated confusedly.

'He's not. What part of 'You're finished with her', do you not understand?' Joey shot at Foster, his blood starting to boil.

'I understand perfectly well' stated Foster. Joey jumped to his feet then, his anger all over the place.

'Good! Now, if you know what right's for you, You'll stay the hell away from MY girlfriend!... Come on, Richard, we're leaving!' said Joey, storming from the room and up the stairs, Richard following him. Thy got to the door and Joey went to swing it, when he found the door was locked.

'What the..' Joey muttered, trying to jingle the dorbell. The sound of a gun cocking made the boys freeze.

'I told you, I got too close... Now, it seems you're the obstacles I need out of the way... I can't let either of you have her I'm afraid..' said Foster, as he walked slowly up the stairs...

Three gunshots, a shout of pain and birds fleeing the area, sqawcking were the sounds the neighbours woke up to that morning...
