Jeroy

Jeroy (Jer/ome and J/oy) is the frenemy/romantic pairing of Jerome Clarke and Joy Mercer. Both seemed to be good friends pre-season one, because Jerome supported Patricia blaming Nina about Joy's disappearance. In Season 2, Jerome somehow helped Joy to get Fabian's attention, selling Nina the same dress he sold her. However, the two hit some strains at the same season, due to Jerome's love for Mara and Joy being her rival in journalism. After discovering who was Jack Jackal (and Joy's lies), he, along with Eddie, made everyone know Joy used the top editor position to sabotage Nina. They seem to be in good terms at the end of season 2.

In Season 3, Jerome is happily dating Mara, while Joy can't get over Fabian. Joy, decided to focus more on herself, tries to impress everyone by wearing Amber's clothes, which is something Jerome uses to make fun of her. Since Joy and Mara are close friends, she didn't approve after Jerome had eaten all of her "fregetable bars" (just to show he can be useful at something). Tension grows between the two when Joy finds out about Willome, and later Jerome dating both Mara and Willow, which means cheating. Joy, angrily seeing how Jerome goes away with the huge mistake he's making, sends the two girls he's dating an incriminating e-mail, which never reaches them and then later helps Willow and Mara execute revenge, even going so far as to plan to make him fall in love with her. Jerome asks Joy out on a date, and at the play Jerome kissed her and she kissed back! The kiss was not written in the script of Mara's play.
