Enjoy this story, I was watching Dawson's Creek Reruns and got inspired to write a Pacey/Joey story because I love them together. Let me know what you think and if it is worth continuing!

This past spring has been on of the most difficult of my life. Full of ups and downs and twisting winding roads that lead just to more chaos. And where did these roads get me? My head laying on a bare chest as True Love sways back and forth with the morning tide. Pacey runs his fingers through my hair and I smile gently. Back to Capeside finally after a summer of travel and avoidance. Neither one of us really want to face Dawson after how we left things. Even though he realized that I am happy with Pacey, he still has issues with us being together. Pacey puts on his shorts and goes above deck as I get dressed myself. The first time with Pacey on the boat was sensational, the way or breathing became one as we moved in synch with each other and the rocking of the boat. Now as we approach the docks it is time to face the music. I surface to the deck and walk over to Pacey. He wraps his loving arms around me and kisses my neck slowly. "This is it, once True Love hits those docks our summer of romance and worry free life is over." I say looking over at the docks.

"Don't worry Joey, we will make it through. After we deal with the aftermath of us and clean up the messes we left behind, it will be as if we are still sailing through the seas on True Love." Pacey assures me. I think he was trying to convince himself more then me, but it was still comforting. True Love approaches the docks and I can see Bessie waving at us with Alexander in her arms. She told me that she would be there waiting for me when we got back, she made us set a date to be back so she new everything would be alright.

Pacey kisses me once more before docking True Love. I gather my things and make my way to the shore. "Joey, how was it?" Bessie asks embracing me with a hug.

"Magical," I say smiling. "It was the best summer of my life." Pacey walks up and wraps his arms around my waist. For the past few months I have been going to sleep in Pacey's arms. It is going to be hard to fall asleep by myself from now on. "Don't forget diner tonight with Dawson." I say kissing him goodbye.

"Yes mam." He says putting my bags in Bessie's car for me. "You ladies have a wonderful day, I will see you later my love." Pacey says to me. I watch in the review mirror as Doug arrives in his police car to pick Pacey up. If feels strange being back in Capeside again for some reason. It was so freeing to be out at see with no authority figure telling me what to do or when to do it. Pacey and I were like a real family for a while.

Bessie's driving has seem to have gotten worse though, either that or I am just so used to boating a car seems weird and out of place. What ever it is, is making me sick. The entire way home Bessie was telling me about how well the Bed and Breakfast has been doing. "There is one more thing Joey, I sort of have your room rented out until Tuesday." Bessie tells me.

"Stop the car!" I shout panicked. Slamming on the brakes we both fly forward. Tearing off my seat belt and opening the door to land knees on the ground Bessie hurries over towards me. There goes that fish I had for lunch. "I guess I am just not used to dry land so much any more." I say standing up slowly. Bessie helps me back into the car, even though I was capable of getting in myself. "I guess I can sleep on True Love for a few more nights, I have grown accustom to the swaying of the boat anyway." I tell her wiping of my mouth with a napkin.

"Joey, you never have gotten car sick before. I know you spent three month out at sea, but why would motion sickness start now and not at the beginning of your voyage?" Bessie questions me as we pull up to our house.

"Bessie, what exactly are you getting at here?" I ask her trying to understand her point of view about this situation. She is probably just reading too much into it like she tends to do.

"Joey, I know it is none of my business, but while you guys where out on the boat, did you ever get together?" She asks. Sex, why bring up sex?

"Maybe a few times," I say honestly.

"Joey, maybe you are pregnant." My face went flushed as I tried to remember the last time Mother Nature paid a visit. I knew if I was Bessie wouldn't be mad, that would be a bit hypocritical if she was. If I was, I would be mad at myself.

"I will see you later Bessie, I am going to go visit Dawson and Jen." I walk over to the small pier in front of our house and get in my row boat. Dawson wouldn't understand or help me at this point, things would be too weird between us. But Jen, considering her reputation, I am going to assume that she has gone through this once of twice before.

In the distance I can see their two house come into view as I approach the pier on the other side. I walk up towards the houses and notice that something is missing from Dawson's house. The latter that has been leaning against the side of his house since we were kids, for me to climb up and down whenever I please, was gone. I really pissed him off by going away with Pacey, sure he will put on a good face but I know that we hurt him bad. I continue to walk away from his house as I walk towards Jen's. I knock on the door and her grandmother answers with a smile on her face. "Joey, it is nice to see you dear, Jen is up in her room." She tells me letting me inside the house.

"Thank you," I say to her as I walk up toward Jen's bedroom. I knock on the door and wait for Jen to open the door. "Hello Jen," I say smiling.

"Joey, hey, welcome back." Jen says walking back towards her bed. "Come sit tell me about this summer with Lover Boy." She pats her bed. I shut her door and sit beside her on the bed.

"Jen, I need help." I tell her laying back on her bed. "So Pacey and I were out for three months on our voyage of rediscovery. I, or rather Bessie, thinks I might be pregnant." I say bluntly. Jen lays down beside me and grabs my hand, reassuring me that no matter what. I have a friend.
