A/N: My attempt at fic

She watched from her window, the small figures, each person unaware to the world around them to the things that matter in life, to things that no matter how long and how hard you try to hold on it all slips through your hands. She traced the smiling face with her fingertips and smiled, she would always smile at the memory that was captured in the photo. It was taken at the Christmas party they hadn't noticed. How could they notice anything but each other. This memory was special to her, of course she had a lot of memory's with him, many made her smile, laugh, but there ones that made her frown, and cry. Yeah. She tried not to but it was so hard so she did the next best thing she cried in the shower, where no one could see her red eyes, the tears falling, or the sobs. It wasn't that Pacey made her feel terrible. It was for another reason. They weren't given a chance. Things had gotten so bad they were out of her reach she knew where the first mistake took place. By lying to
Dawson, she had just felt so bad for him, she had just had given her heart and soul to Pacey, the mean she loved and wanted to spend the rest of her life with and Dawson well, he seemed to be holding onto something that wasn't there. And well once upon ago she had loved Dawson Leery in the teenager confused crush kind of way. Well she didn't want to ruin what she had managed to save between her and Dawson. A friendship one that was too fragile to go breaking his heart...again. That was no excuse, and how does dwelling on what went wrong help. How could she make it right between her and Pacey again?

She rolled her eyes at her wandering thoughts. Pacey was happy now, he had a job, girls falling at his feet and she was rambling on in her head about them getting back together again. Was there a chance for them? Where exactly did they stand with each other, were they just buddies... was there such a thing about being JUST friends with some one you have shared everything with? She bit down on her lip, something she had done many times before. She placed the picture back on her desk where it belonged, she couldn't leave it in the boxes with other memories from Capeside so she took the best memory that had been captured.

She tried to focus the unwritten essay in front of her she tapped her pen against the table to some song she couldn't quite remember. She glanced at the title of the essay she had to right A memory unforgotten. Many sprang to mind, especailly a certain memory that took place during winter in a lodge room with a heated fire and a certain Pacey. She grinned, she doubted her teacher wouldf appreciate the details of that night.

Why was it that her mind kept on drifting back to him? She groaned inwardly frustrated she ripped off the page crumpled it in the bin and began from the start...

Dear Pacey,
