More than friends-Joey Trotta

Chapter twenty six/Things as they are

_ Ana's Pov _

It's been a month since Tony and I are dating, the truth is that I'm very happy about that. Joey and Monica are also going to be a month of being a couple. I honestly don't see Joey very happy, you see he hates being with his girlfriend.

Since the two of them are together, Monica has become unbearable, she just wants to be with Joey 24 hours a day. And whenever I get close to her boyfriend, she treats me very badly; I don't care about that because I know how to defend myself well, and in the end she is always the one who is humiliated.

Today is Friday and there will be a history contest for the most intellectual children at school. Obviously, none of my friends and I will attend.

This week has been very stressful for me, so I will stay in my room, just chilling.

Billy: Are you sure you don't want to come with us?

Ana: Thanks but I prefer to stay and rest, I look for you later

Billy: Ok, see you later

--------------------------------Ana stays in her room painting a drawing--------------

(Someone knocks on the door)

Joey: Hey Ana, can I come in!?

Ana: Hmm yeah sure

Joey: Are you okay ?, Billy said you were tired

Ana: Yes, I just wanted to rest for a while, and where's your girlfriend? you two are like nails and dirt

Joey: HAHA you're right, she is in the contest, but finally I could get away from her

Ana: I don't know how you tolerate Monica, before she became your girlfriend, she wasn't unbearable

Joey: I'm only with her for a reason, but I can't tell you

Ana: I understand you, you don't trust me anymore

Joey: It's not that, I could never distrust you

Ana: I know that, don't worry

Joey: I just want you to know that even if you are with someone else, I will always love you, no matter what

Ana: You know that if you are with someone else, your happiness is very important to me, so if you are happy with Monica or whoever, even if it hurts to accept it, I will always support you

Joey: Do you really care about my happiness? I didn't expect that

Ana: Lately we haven't spent time together, I guess that's why you didn't expect me to care about your happiness

Joey: Yes, that's why, but also because it seems that the only thing that matters to you is Tony

Ana: Believe me what you say is not true

Joey: If you care about my happiness, leave Tony, please

Ana: Why?, you already have a girlfriend

Joey: But she doesn't make me happy, she's not my other half

---Ana gets closer to Joey, and he does the same. They are millimeters away from kissing, when Morgan enters the room---

Morgan: NO WAY! guys, you two were kissing, right?

Ana: Of course not Morgan, how do you think I would do that to Tony!

Joey: We were just talking, and you know I have a girlfriend

Morgan: I know well your intentions Trotta, but you Tepper, wow, get married better

Ana: Don't get things wrong, and I beg you not to tell anyone about this

Morgan: I won't say anything, but why are you asking me not to say anything, are you ashamed that Tony discovers you cheating on him?

Joey: Don't you dare say a word about this, and besides, Ana wasn't cheating on Tony, we were just talking like friends

Ana: I bent down and collided with his head, that's why you found us like this

Morgan: I already told you that I won't say anything!, but I will give you some advice as a friend, stop fooling yourselves

Joey: We better go with the boys

Ana: Good idea

Morgan: I will never forget the scene of you two about to kiss

Joey and Ana: Shut the fuck up!

Morgan: Ok I'll shut up, relax Mr. and Ms. Trotta

Ana: Shit Morgan, you know my name isn't Ms. Trotta

Joey: But it will be soon

Morgan: HAHA you see guys, you were born to be together

Ana: You know what guys, I'm going with my brother, you are jokers

Joey: You look so cute when you get mad

Ana: Shut up Joey, how about Monica listening to you, or Tony

Morgan: It would be your funeral and I would no longer know my nephews, I mean the kids you will have with Ana

Joey: You are very right! and our kids would be perfect don't you think so Ana?

Ana: Do you know what would be perfect too?

Joey: What

Ana: That you two shut up and keep walking

Morgan: You're so rude, but I understand you
