Maggie POV

Another tear from my eye, soon being rubbed off by Joeys thumb. When he did, I looked at him surprised. He just cupped my cheek with his hand and started leaning in. What is happening? Oh my god. Are we going to kiss? Do I want to kiss him?

Next thing I know our faces are only an inch apart He gives me a questioning look to which I respond with a nod. He leans in, connecting our lips. His lips were soft and plump. I pulled away confused in the moment

"Oh I'm so sorry i didn't mean t-" H said rushed taking his hand off my cheek until I cut him off. Crashing my lips to his again

We broke off again, this time for air.

"It's okay" i said with a smile, blushing slightly.

Out of nowhere a ring was coming from his jeans

"Hello?" He answered his phone

"His needs to be special we'll do it on Sunday. Throw the best one we'll ever have okay? Thank you. See you Sunday" He said sounding sad again

I gave him a questioning look

"Matts uh, Funeral" He said looking into his hands

I could see the tears forming once again and gave him a hug. He hugged back, He started crying again, softly. I think this is probably the weakest someone will ever see of Joey. He is always presenting himself as strong inside and out. It's kind of refreshing seeing him like this. I just rubbed his back.

"I'm fine, come on we need to go" He said holding his hand out for me to hold but instantly pulling it back and scratching his neck with it awkwardly instead. I laughed quietly at his actions.

"Where may I ask?"

"We need to get to the other house as this one has been discovered and we always need to be unknown, Everyone you know from this gang will be there"

"Well let's get going" I said walking ahead of him downstairs heading outside. He gave me a surprised look.

He walked towards a car. A normal car? Not a van. It was a black range rover. He opened the passenger door for me and closed it once I sat in the car. He then jogged over to his side where he started reversing into the road.

"Maggie, I'm sorry but you still can't look where we going" He said looking at the road

"Who am I going to tell and how?"

"Good point" He chuckled

Not going to lie he looked hot driving. Damn.

"You may want to sleep it is 11 pm and it's a 6 hour drive" He spoke up after a half hour of comfortable silence while the radio played the latest hits

"Good point" I spoke, we both chuckled as I referred to our last conversation.

After that I closed my eyes and fell asleep happily
