Friendzoned (A Joey Graceffa Fan Fiction)

Chapter 4: Josifina to the rescue!

Chapter 4 (Joey POV):

It's been a week since I filmed the video with Katie, and I haven't talked to her since. I've been busy working on scripts and auditions for my mini-web series Storytellers, and I guess she's adjusting to the internship. Kalel and Anthony came back from Japan last night and Kalel started telling me all abott it, but then fell asleep because of the jetlag. Today Cat, Whitney, and I are going to do a livestream for Storytellers around 4pm.

I wake up to my phone ringing and answer it without opening my eyes because I'm so tired. It's hard to hear the voice over the background noise.

???: "hey, umm joey?"

I answered in my very tired and cranky voice, "yeah, just come over at 4 Cat-mm-kay?" Cat is such an over planner, she always calls before hand to make everything in running on schedule.

???: "what? um no its Katie.. but sorry, nevermind." Before I can respond she hangs up.

I call Katie back and she answers after the first ring, "hey-joey-sorry-to-bother-you-but-it's-pouring-outside-and-the-bus-I-take-home-from-her-work-isn't-stopping-here-today-and-it's-really-cold-can-you-come-get-me?"

"Whoa whoa, calm down. I'll be there in 5, text me the address."

When I pull up to the curb I see Katie. She is completely soaked. Her button up shirt and pencil skirt clinging to her body, and she took off her heels and are holding them in her hand. Her makeup is smudged under her eyes and she looks like she was crying.

I motion for her to come into the car, she runs across the street avoiding get even more wet and practically jumps into the car and slams the door behind her without hesitation. She's shaking and she weakly looks up at me and says "thank you."

"Geez, Katie you look terrible! Come here!" I give Katie hug to warm her up so she'll stop shivering.

"Wow Joey, I see you're still quite the charmer. I demand to be taken home immediately Mr. Chauffer." She said sarcastically.

"Oh shush, come on we're going to my house."

"But I need to do some wor-"

"Oh come on it's Friday, you can do work Monday" I said whining.

"You make a good point. Thanks for being the bestest friend ever Josefina!" She said mocking me in an extra high pitched girly voice. She always knew how to press my buttons.

"Don't. call. me that." I said angrily trying to defend my masculinity.

We both burst out laughing as I pull into our garage. "Well Kalel and Anthony are back from Japan so you get to meet them today, but they're out shopping right now."

"In this weather!?" She questioned.

"When Kalel wants to shop, ya can't stop her haha. Now come inside so we can clean ya up."

I give her a mini house tour and walk her up to my room. "And this is my room! Go take a hot shower and I'll make you some tea." I say almost commanding her.

I walk downstairs and make Katie some tea, and I make myself a smoothie. I bring them back downstairs and put them on my desk. I go on Facebook when I get a Skype request from Stacy.

"Hey staceanya! Hungerrcraft time?"

"Uh, duh!" She says without hesitation.

We're five minutes into the game when I die. "Bitches, skanks, and hoes! That's who you are DevonMines! You have to win for us Stacy! It will be beautiful, magical, and splendid. I'll be right back."

I go downstairs and put my empty smoothie cup in the sink. I check the clock and realize it's 3pm. I have to do the Storytellers livestream in an hour, but I don't want to kick Katie out. I guess I can just introduce her to Whitney and Cat?




When I go back into my room I can hear Katie calling my name from the bathroom. I walk over the bathroom, "Hey, you done?" "Yeah but I kinda locked myself in t he bathroom. I also need clothes. Oops."

"Well I see you're still a klutz Katherine. Stay right there, I'll give you some clothes." I teased her."Well considering I'm locked in here, I don't think I'll be able to go too far.." She said laughing.

I walk back in my room and grab her a superdry tshirt and some sweatpants. "Okay cover up with a towel or something cause I'm gonna unlock the door and you the clothes, ok?"

I wiggle the door knob back and forth in a technique I've used once before when Whitney got stuck in this bathroom. I unlock the door and open it just a sliver so I can hand her the clothes.

"Come to my room when you're changed." I tell her and shut the door again.She came in wearing my clothes, her hair in a bun on the top of her head (I think girls call this a topknot? I think that's what Ingrid says?), and she looks really tired.

"Hey Joey, thank you so much. This really means a lot."I stand up and give her a really long hug.

"Don't worry, I can be your guardian angel of LA! Always call if you need a favor, it's not a problem. Now drink your tea it's practically cold already."




"Thanks Joey, hey why are you shirtless?

"I hear Stacy's voice calling out from the computer, "Joey? Hello? Are you still there?"I laugh and quickly get on my computer and tell Stacy I have to go and I'll explain later. I tell Katie, "I have a second youube channel for gaming, and the day I filmed my first video it was so hot so I took my shirt off and ever since I've done shirlless gaming videos.

By the way, my friends Whitney and Cat are coming over for a fundraising livestream I'm doing on my channel for a webseries I wan to create called Storytellers. They'll be here in 5 minutes. You don't have to leave though, I want you to stay, unless you don't want to over course but-"




"Wait. I get to see. THE JCat! Live? In person! OMG!" She teased and freaked out, but in a way where I'm starting to think that's how she actually felt. "Well I'm definately staying now, but I look like a mess so I don't wanna be on camera!" She said.




"Oh shutup you look perfect! You don't need to impress anyo- HAHAHA *breath* KATIE *breath* STOOOP!" Katie found my ticklish spot I've had since a little kid. Whenever she didn't want to do something she'll tickle me until I surrender.

"Okay fine, you can sit on the side instead of  being on camera." I quickly recover, pick Katie up and throw her over my shoulder. "AAH! Joey! Put me down. Now!" I throw her onto my bed and casually go over to pick out a shirt like nothing happened. She comes over to me and give me a hug whispering into my ear and teased, "Thanks for helping me out today, you aren't half as bad as I remember you Graceffa."
