Joe and Dianne One Shots

perfect to me

dianne's pov - 2 years later

i had just got into an uber to take me back home from rehersals, it had been a late rehersal seeing as he couldn't get it. i'm not talking about my amazing joe here, i'm talking about my celeb dance partner. this week was the week before blackpool and in all honesty, i was really hoping we wouldn't get through. i was dancing with a guy called mark, he was really nice at the beginning but all of a sudden he's started being mean to me and making me feel like i'm worthless. it has only started reccently, before he would make the odd comment about my choreography but it was only small things so i thought nothing of it. now he's saying much more and i'm scared. what's even worse is that i felt like our routine wasn't going too well so i thought i'd put in a harder lift so if all else fails, the lift will look good. that was a mistake because here i am injured...it's the worst injury i have had in awhile, i can barley walk.

"miss, we're here" i quickly paid the driver and limped out, hopping up to mine and joe's place. i reach the door and my foot is in absolute agony, i just remembered that tracey, zoe and alfie are staying over. they arrived this morning and are staying until sunday, i wasn't actually gonna be here much though since i would have rehersals for blackpool. what am i gonna say to joe about my injury? he gets really protective over me and i haven't told him about what marks been saying, i'm starting to believe what he is saying is true...i'm not good enough for joe.

eventually i pull myself together and open the door.

"hey baby, how was rehersals?" joe says getting up off the sofa and coming over to kiss me hello.

"uh yeah, they were alright" i said

"what happened to your foot, are you ok?!"

"yeah, i just uh fell over. i'm gonna have a shower, maybe the heat will help" i replied kissing him, quickly saying hello to the others and then making my way upstairs very slowly.

"you want a hand di?"

"nah, i've got it" i got into our bedroom and started to cry, eventually falling asleep

"dianne, baby" i felt someone shake me awake, i open my eyes to see joe

"j-joe?"

"its me baby, are you alright? you look like you've been crying" he said, kissing my cheek and then stroking it softly. my phone buzzed

"where did i put my phone?" i looked for it as did joe, he found it and was looking angry.

"what's wrong?"

"di, has mark been hurting you?" and with that i just burst into tears, joe wrapped his arms around me and kissed my head.

"it's ok, i'm here now" he said soothingly

"how long has this been going on?" he asked kissing my cheek every now and then

"a few weeks. he started making the odd comment about my choreography but now it's more and he keeps saying i only have fans because of you" i said crying into him again

"none of that's true, you have fans because you are so amazing, kind, funny, a beautiful person inside and out. i love you so much baby, please tell me whatever he's said"

"i love you too, he just keeps almost threatening me...he keeps saying that my choreography isn't good enough and he keeps wanting to put harder things into the routine so we make it to blackpool. and yesterday he even hit me"

"oh my gosh, dianne, where?" he replied

"my cheek, i covered it with make up. your mum and zoe and alfie are here, you should be spending time with them, i didn't want you to worry about me" i said looking down
