I wish I was wrong. But I didn't think I was. From what I'd worked out, Joey and Lauren were together. Oh if only they knew, how much hurt they are going to face. The backlash when everyone finds out. I knew from experience. Not that I regretted any of it, the good I had with Dennis, the love we shared far outweighed the negative opinions, and even though I lost him, I'd never regret it. One, because I had Denny, but 2, for the way he made me feel. I'm worried for them though, especially her. She's got more to lose than he has, just like I did with Dennis. She's risking a lot to be with him, and I just hope he realises how much. She's fallen and she's fallen fast, just like I did.
I looked at him, the exact way I see Lauren looking at Joey. Secret glances, willing yourself not to look, but doing it anyway. Then the smirk he sends her, when he catches her looking at him, is like a flashback. The teasing banter, sarcastic comments, pushing the others buttons, they are very well matched. The way he acts like a bad boy, but is so gentle with her at times, tucking her hair behind her ear, always looking out for her. It's obvious he loves her. I don't know how other people haven't picked up on the chemistry, sure they have tried to hide it but it's obvious. But maybe I can just see it clearer, because I've been there. I wish them the best, to enjoy it whilst it lasts and I hope for their sake, it doesn't end in tears.
