AN- For those confused, yes I am a diehard P/Jo fan and that will never change but I want to write stories about different couples such as Dawson and Joey or Pacey and Andie.

Finally, Joey's plane landed. She walked into the airport and spotted her aunt and uncle holding a sign with her name on it. She walked over to them. ''Hi Aunt Sara, Uncle Joseph.'' she said. Aunt Sara hugged her. ''My goodness, we haven't seen you since you were about 12, right Joesph?'' she asked her husband. He nodded. ''You turned into quite the beauty.'' Aunt Sara said. ''Thanks, Aunt Sara.'' Joey said. ''Well let's get your bags and go home.'' Aunt Sara said, grabbing her nieces hand and dragging her to the baggage return.

Joey spotted her bags and Uncle Joesph grabbed them. Then walked out of the airport and led Joey to where a limo was parked. ''Oh this is just for today sweetheart, we don't drive limos everyday.'' Aunt Sara said, spotting Joey's shocked look. They piled into the limo and drove off. ''Your cousins would have loved to come greet you but they are still in school.'' Aunt Sara said. Joey glanced at the clock that read 3:00 p.m. ''This late?'' she asked. ''Well it's a private school, they start later and get out later. But don't worry, the neighbors daughter goes to a public school. She'll be home to show you around.'' Aunt Sara said. Joey sat back to look out the window at all the houses.

They were huge! Manions of every size. Joey glanced at her uncle. He hadn't said a single word to her since she arrived. The limo pulled into the driveway of a beautiful manion. Joey got out, looking up in awe. ''Well sweetie, why don't you head next door and ask for Jen Lindley. She'll show you around and everything.'' Aunt Sara said. ''But what about my stuff?'' Joey asked. ''Oh the servent will take care of that.'' she replied. Joey walked next door and rang the doorbell. The door opened to revel an elderly woman. ''Are you Josephine?'' she asked. ''Um Joey, please.'' Joey said. ''Of course. I'm Evelen Ryan, you may call me Mrs. Ryan or even Grams as Jennifer tells her friends to call me.'' Grams said. ''It's a pleasure meeting you Mrs. Ryan.'' Joey said. ''Oh call her Grams. Everyone else does.'' A blonde girl said, rushing down the stairs.

''Joey this is my granddaughter, Jennifer. Jennifer, this is Joey.'' Grams said introducing them. ''So you'll call her Joey but you won't call me Jen?'' Jen asked. Grams rasied her eyebrows at her. ''But then again, I love the name Jennifer.'' Jen said. She walked over to Joey. ''It's nice to meet you, Joey. I'll show you all around California.'' she said. The girls walked over to Jen's red convertible and drove off.

Jen drove into the subburb area and stopped outside a homely townhouse. ''What are we doing here?'' Joey asked as Jen honked the horn. A tall boy about their age with dark hair walked outside. He looked up and was surprised when he saw Joey. ''Who's this?'' he asked. ''Drue meet my new neighbor, the niece of the Mcphees, Joey Potter. Joey meet my boyfriend Drue Valentine.'' Jen said. ''Hi.'' Drue said. ''Hi.'' Joey said. ''Good. Now that everyone knows each other, let's go. We're showing Joey around today. Get in the back Drue.'' Jen said.

Drue hopped into the back seat and Jen drove off. They took Joey all over the neighborhood to many resteranunts and clubs. ''We'll probably take you back here when it's later.'' Jen said. Joey nodded. They stopped for lunch at a small diner owned by Drue's parents. ''So Joey, where are you from?'' Jen asked after they ordered. ''Capeside Massachusitts. It's a small town.'' Joey said. ''Well everywhere is small comparied to California.'' Drue said. ''Not New York.'' Jen said. ''Yeah, Jen here is from New York. She only moved here a couple years ago.'' Drue said. ''Really, why did you move?'' Joey asked. ''My parents didn't want to bother with me anymore. Doesn't matter, Grams is better to me then they ever were and plus I have Drue.'' she said. They kissed and Joey groned playfully. ''Get a room.'' she said. They all laughed.

Jen and Drue drove Joey home. They arrived just as her counsins did. She saw her cousin Jack walk inside but Andie stayed at the car that drove them home. Joey walked over. ''So anyway thanks a lot for the ride. My stupid car has been acting up for ages.'' Andie said, standing by the passenger door. ''Andie?'' Joey asked. Andie turned around and squeled when she saw Joey. ''Oh my God Joey, how are you.'' Andie said hugging her. ''I'm gonna go now. See you Mcphee.'' she heard the driver say. Joey looked inside the car and saw a very attractive guy with bright blue eyes. ''Bye Pacey and thanks again.'' Andie said. He smilied at her and drove off.

''Isn't he gourgess. Every girl in school likes him. He's kinda friends with Jack but he's manly a loner. Still he'll talk to me more then anyone else. I think he might like me. That's Pacey Witter by the way. You'll see him when you go to school tomorrow.'' Andie said, leading Joey inside. She brought Joey upstairs and they went into Joey's room. ''Wow.'' Joey said. It was a beautiful room with plushy blue carpet and a light blue bedspread with blue pillow cases. While Joey unpacked, Andie chattered away about everything. ''Who's that?'' Andie asked when Joey brought out her picture of Dawson and her. It was taken a week before she left. ''That's by best friend Dawson Leery.'' Joey said, smiling softly. ''Yeah best friend all right. He kissed you didn't he?'' Joey was shocked. ''How did you know?'' she asked. ''I didn't. It was just a guess.'' Andie said.

''The night before I left, we were watching movies and when I went to leave, he kissed me. We said it wasn't goodbye, just a promise of something more.'' Joey said blushing slightly. ''So that means you won't be dating?'' Andie asked. ''Probably not. I still need to talk to him.'' Joey said. ''Call him tomorrow after school. You'll have more to tell him.'' Andie said. Just then Jack walked inside. ''Hey Joey.'' he said. ''Hi Jack.'' Joey said hugging him.

''So did mom and dad greet you with open arms?'' he asked. ''Your mom did, but not your dad.'' she said. ''I'm not surprised. Dad's been so distant ever since I came out last year.'' Jack said, shaking his head. ''He doesn't accept that you're gay?'' Joey asked. ''Yeah, seems he wanted me to have kids and carry on the Mcphee name.'' Jack said. ''Doesn't matter. I don't need him. I got Andie and Jen from next door.'' he said. ''Yes Jen is so cool. I wish she came to our school.'' Andie said.

Andie and Jack grilled Joey for the rest of the night until she kicked then out, saying she needed to sleep. That night, she lay down on her bed, thinking of Dawson and how much she missed Capeside. She loved her cousins and her aunt but was put off by her uncles attitude. How could he hate his son like that? Why did he act so different to her? She finally fell asleep.
