Chapter #1
(Pacey's thoughts)
It happened. I don't know when and I don't know how. But I fell for her…hard. Damn Dawson and his basic kinder garden logic. Until he put the idea in my head, I never would have considered Josephine Potter an option. How could I? The two of us hate each other, we always have. ….Well, fine. Maybe that is not entirely true; Joey and I have had our moments. I'm not even completely sure when my feelings toward her changed. Guess I have always found Joey attractive. I never knew how much until that day at the creek when we were searching for snails and our row boat drifted away. The two of us were soaked; we had nothing to change into but two blankets. That was the day I realized how beautiful Joey was. When I dropped her off that day…I kissed her. I'm not even sure why I did it, Joey wasn't too happy. After that day things went back to normal between us, I couldn't stand Joey and she despised me.
Then I had that damn conversation with Dawson about Andie. He may have been talking about Andie, but Joey hates me more than she does. Could Dawson's theory be right? Could Joey like me? Even if she did, which I doubt, she would never tell me. Sometimes I truly despise Dawson. Thanks to him, for the life of me I cannot get little miss Josephine Potter out of my head. Lately she is all that I seem to think about and it has been driving me crazy. I don't even know what to do. All I want to do is be around her. These days I have been looking for just about any reason to spend time with Joey. Sure whenever we do see one another all we do is exchange heated remarks and banter…but that's always been us.
I'm not even sure what I am supposed to do anymore. The thought of kissing Joey is constantly on my mind. There is no way I could ever act on this though; she would more than likely kill me if I did. Not to mention Dawson, he would probably never speak to me again if I ever made a move on Joey. They might not be dating and haven't been for a while but that doesn't mean Dawson would take kindly to me trying to move in on Joey. This whole situation sucks. I wish there was a way to find out if maybe Joey felt the same about me as I do her. It's not as though I could just come right out and ask her though. With my luck she would probably laugh in my face and toss an insult my way. ….
