Joey was together with Tom Connor who hated him no matter how much Joey tried. He would take him to the most expensive restaurants in the city and half of the time he wouldn't show up. He would take him to party's and make Joey look bad to his friends and investors. When there alone at joeys place the abuse happens. Tom would brake his things and throw a fit. He would even throw knives at Joey sometimes.

It's gotten to him so much he started to take it out on his employees. Yelling at Wally for not cleaning faster or at Sammy for a mistake on his music. He made Susie cry once and even slapped grant.

What did he do to be treated so poorly?

His thoughts were interpreted by a knock on the door and Sammy peaking in. "I uh sir?...I uh. Got new music..."

"Come on sam.." Joey replies and sips a beer.

Sammy looks at the beer. "Sir..is everything ok? Your always drinking..."

"I'm fine!" Joey yells slamming his hand down and making Sammy jump.

"I..uh ok sir..." Sammy places the music down and starts to leaves.

"Sammy! Wait..." Joey rubs his head. " I'm sorry...I'm just going through with something."

Sammy turns to him. "What's wrong? Anything I can help?"

"No I...I don't think so..." Joey starts to chug the body.

"Hey hey! You don't need this Joey." Sammy Takes the beer away. "Now come on. Tell me what's going on that's making you sad?"

"It...Tom..he's ..he's an ass! He hits me! He throws knives at me! And I .. I don't know why..." Joey burst into tears.

Sammy felt bad for him and hugs him. "I know how that is...I was abuse as a kid.." he told Joey. "It's not your fault for his actions ok?"

Joey nodded even though he didn't believe it.

"You can tell me everything Joey."
Sammy replied.

Joey did so. He told him everything tom did to him. Everything he kept inside him forever. And Sammy listened without interrupting him.

  Toms been noticing how much Joey was hanging out with the music director a lot this week. They would spend their brake with each other now. Talk about things where into m, with each oth from. And Somethings they would go to the store together as well. He didn't like that. Not one bit. Something must be done.

The next night Tom came to Joey house and knocked on his door. "Come on Joey. Get in the car" he told him when he answered the door. 

"I uh...why?" Joey ask.

"I said get in!" Tom demanded.

Joey did so. He got in the front seat and Tom drives. They drove for a long while and  deep into the woods. "Umm Tom? Where are we going?" Joey finally asked.

Tom didn't answer.

" Tom?! Answer me! Please!" Joey begs but Tom didn't answer. Joey took out his sell phone to call the police but there was no service out here. "Tom!.."

After another hour Tom pulled to a stop. "Get out." He told Joey as he turns off the car and took the keys. He gets out and goes to the trunk and opening it. He pulled out his shoot gun and loads it.

Joey, getting out, hears it and looks at Tom. "Tom...?"

Tom pointed it at him and shoots.

Joey ducks at the last minute then starts running away. "Help! Please someone!!!"

Tom aims it at Joey and shoots. This time watching him fall.

  Joey screams from the pain in his leg. Until He saw Tom came up to him and looked up at him. At the end of his shot gun. "W-way?"

"Because your cheating on me." Tom shot him in the face before he could say anything else. Joeys body fell and the woods got silent.

Tom went back to his car and got his shovel. He dug a whole them dumped joeys body In and buried him in.

The next day no one could understand why there boss wasn't there. they waited for hours before someone called the police. They did a full investigation on his disappearance and question everybody.

Sammy told them they were spending time together lately but didn't tell them anything about Tom for fear he would make him go missing as well. Tom was dangerous and shouldn't be missed with.

Sadly since Joey went missing around when Sammy snd him were hanging out, the cops concluded Sammy the one that did something to Joey and arrested him giving him 15 years in prison.
