Joey catches Carla just waking up, feels he needs to talk about last night.
--------------------------------------------------
"Hey Carla, I didn't wake you did I?"
"No, I just got up myself."
"Good, we should talk." Joey says, lowering his voice.
They take a seat on the bed.
"What's wrong?" Carla asks, nervously.
"I caught Hayden in here again, just when he came through the door and I confronted him."
Carla's heartbeat sped up and she inhaled deeply. "This is the second time......"
"I know."
"What am I gunna do Joey? I don't want there to be a third time or find out what happens after the third time...I don't want to suffer the same fate as-"
"I know."
"Well then?"
He reached out and rested his hand on hers, their eyes met and the room was silent a moment.
"I have an idea." Joey says, "I will continue to guard your room while you sleep but give me a few days to put my plan in place."
"Be careful."
"Don't worry, it's nothing risky I just need to do something first."
She curled in her lips, "okay."
"Meanwhile, I think we should have a serious chat." Joey says, seeming stressed out.
"Sure, anything."
