You and Joe had known each other for a few years, but you were way younger than him. Not illegally but…definitely an age gap. — he was like an overprotective father, which was your type. #daddyissues or whatever people say.

But besides that, you and Joey were really close. Even flirted once in a while, and even when you got sick. He’d bring you things, you two saw each other or even talked every single day. Since you met. — but he was obsessed with you, he wasn’t afraid to admit it to you he was just waiting for the right time.

And he thought today was the right time…so he thought.

📍Santagato Studios, New York.

July 2nd, 2025. — 3:01 PM.

Joey walked into the studio, and when he saw you. — running up to him excitedly and jumping into his arms. He hugged you back, wrapping his arms around your waist with a chuckle. He was always gentle with you, always.

He let you go slowly, making sure you got back to the ground safely. Since he was standing at a good 5’10. And you were very much shorter than him. Which he found cute, he could always just throw you over his shoulder when you got an attitude. But he’d never admit that…until he does it.

Everyone hung out, until you and Frankie got into a huge argument about a video idea. And Frankie said something very very hurtful to you. Which caused Joey to sit up quickly.

“woah- woah- Frankie…not cool man.”

He said, his hand up. His bracelet resting on his wrist. And his ring resting on his middle finger.

As he saw you get up, he followed. Trying to calm you. — but he knew you were stubborn, and he walked in front of you, grabbing you by the neck softly. Pulling you into a hungry, desperate, kiss. Like a man who’d been starving.

when he pulled away a few seconds later to look at you, he spoke.

“you gonna listen?”
