"Jo! I can't find my sock!" Pacey shouted from
downstairs.
"Which one?"
"The black and tan one!"
"In your dirty laundry."
"Uhh." He said sadly.
"Jo...What was that noise?" He asked. He had just
heard glass shattering.
"I don't know." She said running down the stairs,
fiddling with her earrings.
"I think it was the bathroom window." He reasoned.
"Why would the bathroom window break?" She
asked following him to the bathroom door.
"It smells like smoke." He opened the door to a room
full of fire.
"Someone broke the window and threw a wad of
newspaper that was on fire in! Jo call 911" He yelled.
Joey ran to the nearest phone as Pacey was trying
to stop the fire.
"Hello. Yes. Someone threw fire into our bathroom
window. It's on fire. Please come" She said full of panic.
"Our address....Umm. 154 Creekbed drive. The Potter
B&B......yes....That's it. Thanks and please hurry." After she hung up the phone she raced back to Pacey.
"Are they coming?" He shouted coughing.
"yeah."
"Ok. We need to get out of the house."
"Okay." They both ran to the safety of the outside.
The fire trucks came in a flash and the fire was put
out immediately.
Joey kept having visions of when she was little
when the brave firefighter lost his life to save her.
"Pacey. I have to go somewhere else. Anywhere
else then here" Joey said suddenly. Pacey looked at her for a minute then took Joey to the creek, where she couldn't see the fire.
"What's the matter?" He asked tenderly.
"The fire, Pacey. Do you remember the last fire I've
seen?"
"ohh." He said remembering.
"yeah. I just can't stand it."
"How about we go to Boston for a while. To clear
our minds."
"We'll tell Bessie after she'll come back and then
we'll go."
"okay"
"thanks Pace"
"anything for you malady"

"what in the world" Bessie exclaimed as they neared
their house. There were police and fire department employees everywhere.
After Wayne parked the car a police officer came to
them.
"Are you Ms. Potter.?" He asked. Bessie nodded.
"I'm Officer John Deeogee. It's seems there was a act
of vandalism. Your bathroom window was broken when someone threw a wad of fiery newspaper into it. Ms. Potter called the police and we're here to figure out what happened."
"Is everyone okay?" Bessie asked shocked.
"Yes. Mr. Witter and Ms. Potter are fine. But Ms.
Potter is a little shook up." Bessie froze. Of course this would hurt her sister. The fire.
"Can I go talk to her?"
"Of course. But you can't enter your house right
now. It's a crime scene."
"Ok. Thanks."

"Joey!" Bessie called as she neared her sister.
"Bess." She returned hugging her.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes."
"The fire memories?"
"Oh. Well, I'm going to Boston with Pacey for a
while."
"Because of it?" Bessie asked concerned.
"It's a bit of it."
"Okay. Joey. Have a good time."
"Okay. Thanks Bess."
"Bye."
Joey and Pacey walked over to his car and got in
ready for journey to clear their mind.
