The Reunion

The Reunion

She was working as an art teacher in Boston. She hadn't seen the point in moving away, there were plenty of jobs around here for her. Jack and Jen had stayed too. They owned a small clothes shop together. Jen designed the clothes and Jack took care of the money. They were all doing really well for themselves. As well as that they all lived close to each other.
Joey's phone rang. She put down the school book she was marking and answered.
"Hello?"
"Hey Jo, did you get an invite to the Capeside High reunion?" It was Jen. She sounded really excited at the idea of a reunion.
"Erm yeah I did. I meant to ask you earlier if you had too"
"You going to go? Jack and me are think we might. It'll be really interesting to see what everyone is doing now." Jen could sense Joey wasn't sure.
"He might be there." Joey knew who she was talking about.
"What makes you think I want to see him?" she asked.
"Something to do with the fact every boyfriend you've had since leaving Capeside hasn't lasted more than a month and every time you split with one you come over to mine or Jack's saying the guy was nothing like Pacey." Joey knew she was right. She did do that. She couldn't help it. No one could compare to what she had with him, not even Dawson.
Finally she spoke, "Ok I'll go. When is it again?"
"Hang on a tick" She heard Jen yell to Jack to pass her the invite. They were always at each other's flats. It's hard to believe they stayed friends for so long. It was harder to believe that she hadn't heard from Dawson in almost 9 years.
"Right it's in 3 weeks. That gives us plenty of time to buy outfits and things"
"Yeah it does." Joey knew she didn't sound sure. But who knows she might enjoy it when she got there.
"Anyway Jo I got to go. Why don't you pop round to Jack's later, we're getting a couple of films out."
"Ok then, I'll come round once I've finished marking these books. Bye!"
She put the phone down and went back to marking her books.
