Joey didn't want to move she liked how her life was a didn't want to start over in a new place she had never been. As Joey was about to turn around the corner she ran right into someone.
"Shit, I am so sorry" Joey cried
"No it was all my fault. I should have been watching were I was going." The person said. "here" he reached out for her hand.
As Joey grabbed his hand she then realized who it was."ohmigod" Joey said quietly.
"I am really sorry about what happened. Are you OK?"
"yea am fine just a little scratches nothing big. My name is Joey by the way."
"Hi, am Zac." The young boy got up
"Zac we told you not to go off faster then us were have you been...."Taylor stopped in his sentence noticing Zac talking to Joey.
"hum hey Tay I kinda ran into Joey and was just helping her."
"Hi am Joey me and Zac kind of ran into each other when we were rounding the corner but couldn't see each from the stupid bush."
"are you OK" Taylor asked
"Yes Taylor we're fine" Zac said defensively to his brother.
"I wasn't asking you, I was asking so Joey. So are you all right" Taylor said as he turned to Joey.
"yea am fine but thanks for asking"
"I haven't seen you around here before did you just move here?"
