Shift in Sound || A Jemi Love Story

Episode 58- Needing his Daughter

I decided to update anyway, I quite like this episode :)

--------------------------------------------------

Demi empties her pockets into the blue tray then going through the archway without it beeping meaning she is clear to go through. Joe walks around the archway not having to do it grabbing hold of her hand again for comfort. He leads her through the snakelike corridors before they find themselves outside a door, a door in which Demi came face to face to yesterday but ran away not knowing what to do in the situation. She now knows. Joe stops Demi from going in for a minute so he could talk to her, neither of them knowing what will happen over the next hour or so.

"Please be  careful." Joe begs taking hold of both of her hands. Demi smiles slightly leaning up pecking his lips making him mirror her smile.

"I will, I know how this works. You'll be on the other side of the mirror in the room with another officer to make sure everything is okay." Demi explains Joe laughing.

"I love you." He mumbles his forehead pressed against hers.

"I love you too Joseph." She says giving him another peck on the lips before entering the dark room. Her eyes wonder up to a man handcuffed to a metal bar attached to the metal table. He has her hair colour, her eyes. She recognises straight away that he's her father. John's eyes wonder up to the young pregnant woman standing in the doorway his eyes widening slightly, he hadn't got a proper look at who his physiatrist was yesterday before she ran away but now he's staring at her knowing straight away who she is.

"Demi?" He breaths making her nod her head giving him a warm smile, she slowly walks over taking a seat opposite her father Joe watching on the other side. He knows then that he was her father, she looks so much like him. "Your beautiful."

"Thank you." Demi says placing one of her hands on the table, the other one laying on her bump. She feels as if it needs to be there in case anything were to happen then her daughter would be fine.

"Demi you have to believe me, I'm innocent!" He exclaims surprising both Joe and Demi a little bit. "I've been innocent the past eighteen years I've been here, you have to help me!" He screeches Demi's eyes welling up with tears she forces them to stay in.

"W-What do you mean?" Demi stammers  John letting out a breath leaning forward on his chair.

"I was framed,  I missed practically all your life and all I want is to be there for the rest. Your all grown up Demi, obviously happy enough with a man to have a baby and you're in a good profession. I missed, I missed it all." He says beginning to cry. Demi looks over at the mirror knowing her boyfriend is behind there, somehow she felt Joe tell her that she was allowed to hug him. She got up from the table walking over hugging her father for the first time since she was about the age of three.

Joe lets out a sigh watching his girlfriend hug her father. His mind revolving around the fact that her dad believes that he was framed, it's not often people get that kind of thing wrong but it happens. The odds were obviously stacked against him leaving him having to spend the rest of his life in a place anywhere other than where he should be. With his family.

"He's been saying that the whole time he's been here, we've checked over the evidence and we can't find any proof that he was framed." Gavin explains to Joe.

"Has he had any visitors before?" Joe questions him shaking his head. Joe would hate that more than anything if he were to go into jail. Not having any of his family visiting him. His mind turns to Dianna, he would understand why she wouldn't want her young daughter going into jail but why not visit him herself? They had got a divorce before any of this happened but it said that they were still on speaking terms.

"Is she a family member?" Gavin questions.

"Yeah, she's his daughter, I can tell by looking at them." Joe states Gavin seeing it as well.  

"That's probably the most normal thing he has done in a long while." He admits.

"He just needed his daughter." Joe mutters under his breath.
