Promise me

Moving on (prologue)

Prologue;
Occasionally Joe woke up with night terrors of the day Jane died, he would look at his hands worried her blood was still upon them.
To calm himself down he would look at the photos they had took which always cheered him up. As he knows he would never changed his decision to be with her no matter how many sleepless nights it gave him.

Joe got up and got ready to go out for lunch. Taking Vinnnie with him, Once ready he walked to his destination with Vinnie by his side, he was meeting Andy.
"Hey" she said hugging Joe.
"How are you?" He asked.
"Good you?"
"Alright yeah" he breathed out.
"Vinnie is looking great" Andy smiled. Leaving Joe to follow.
Sitting down they both talked, Joe had filmed main channel videos but had struggled to Vlog without Jane there. After all it had only been 4 months since he lost the girl he loved, but everything went amazingly her funeral and the service after. Committed and loyal he stuck to every promise remembering her before the illness struck her fully.

"Hey there playing that song Jane loved" Andy said. Awaking Joe from his day dream.

"She did love this song, so any news?" Joe said distracting himself from the conversation as the grief got the better of him. 

"I'm speaking to someone," Andy said looking down grasping her hot coffee.
"Oh wow, that's great Jane would be so happy for you, I don't think I'm ready"

"Well when you are you must as she would have wanted you to move on, I know what you promised" Andy said calmly.

"I know when I'm ready though" 

Joe took up his camera and started to vlog although he had been quiet he took his camera with him where ever he went.
"Hey guys this song is the song Jane loved and I'm with Andy and we were just remembering the things she did also Vinnie is here. This restaurant is ace as they allow dogs!! Anyway talk to you later" Joe felt proud that he got on with his job whilst the remembering Jane in a positive light.
How she would have liked it.

*1 year later*
Joe's channel had blew up, and YouTube was the new tv. Joe had started his own charity for those with terminal illnesses, they could have a dream come true before they left their families. He called it The bucket list trust in memory of Jane.

Vinnie had forgot his puppy stage and was now a sensible playful dog. Joe on Fridays took him to the park for a run, Today was Friday so he let him on the long lead, allowing him to run around.
Many dog owners did this here, for Joe it was a routine.
However, today, Joe's lead wouldn't shorten, so the extender was stuck.
Vinnie's lead got stuck around another dogs lead wrapping Joe tangled among it. Following the lead to his dog, to try and collect him before he was hidden in the mess, he found a young lady at the other end of the clutter.
"I'm so sorry my lead broke I couldn't stop him" he laughed.
"It's ok, he's lovely!" She laughed back. Her hair was dark and short, her eyes were hazel, she was no taller than Joe.
"I don't think I've seen you around here?" Joe asked starting conversation.
"No I've just moved, hoping to start a carer in production or filming"

Then the conversation was flowing and it wasn't going to stop. After what seemed like days of chatting,
"Oh god how rude am I, my names Joe" Joe gasped.
"Names Sophie" she shook his hand.

*7 years later*
Sophie and Joe were happily married, Joe had took a back seat in youtube only focusing on vlogging.
Sophie was a boss at gleam and was due to have a baby girl any time soon. Andy was going to be a god mother with her husband, as well as Zoe and Alfie.
"Joe I've been thinking..."
"Yeah?" He questioned.
"I want to call the baby this beautiful name which means determination and positivity"
"And what's that love?"
"Jane"
"I couldn't agree more" Joe smiled.
