Chapter 2
Joey woke up the next morning, and felt Pacey's strong arms around her waist. She smiled to herself, so happy that she was with him. She felt him stir, and turned around to face him, and was greeted with his ocean blue eyes, and his gorgeous smile.
'Morning Pace', she beamed at him. He kissed her , pulling her into him and whispered into her ear, 'Morning Jo'. He loved waking up with her. She always looked so perfect. He on the other hand, was looking exhausted, something Joey had started to notice. She knew the talk was going to come soon, she just knew it. Joey sighed to herself, 'Pace, maybe you should go back to sleep and sleep in till the afternoon? You look exhausted'. 'And miss spending time with you this weekend? I don't think so Potter, every second counts', replied Pacey. He didn't want to worry her with his tiredness, and tried to keep upbeat to make her relax.
'Pacey, we can spend the whole day together tomorrow, and then I'll come to Capeside early next weekend, maybe on Thursday and we can have Amy together? I'll see if I can get some extra days off work...' she trailed off, busily planning in her head an excuse to tell work.
'No , Jo, don't skip your job, you don't want to get into trouble. It's fine. We'll sort something out. I need to get up anyway, I took a sneak peak into your fridge last night. You , Miss Potter, have seemed to forgot to shop. I'll run to the shops and get a few bits for you, so we can enjoy a nice breakfast and have a great start to the day, yes?' Pacey smiled with enthusiasm at Joey, kissed her quickly, and hopped out of bed and into the shower.
Joey sighed, she should have been more prepared, always remember breakfast items! Pacey loves cooking up a full 'English' breakfast for us, how could I have forgotten? Ah yes, that huge story I had to edit, she thought to herself, kept me busy for days that she lost track of time (and the amount of food left in her fridge). Joey got up, wrapped a dressing gown round her and traipsed into the kitchen. She sat down at her laptop at the counter, and logged in to her emails. One from Dawson!
'Hey Joey,
Just catching up with you before I head off to South Africa for some shooting. This movies going to be great Jo, I can't wait till I can send you a copy. I'll see if I can swing some tickets for you to come out with Pacey and go on a Safari, they're awesome! Hope everything is well in the big city, saw that there is a strike with all public transport this weekend, I hope it doesn't disrupt your plans with Pacey, I know your time together is limited. Have you spoken to Pacey yet about living arrangements? When I spoke to you on the phone last you were still contemplating bringing it up. I think you should just go for it, now is perfect timing, its been two years Joey. Two years that you only get to spend only the weekend together, and you both deserve to be happy.
I'm sure Pacey will be happy that you have decided to move back to Capeside, just make sure that he doesn't want to move to New York first!
Love you Joey, call me soon ok?
Dawson
She smiled to herself. She loved these little emails from Dawson about what's going on in his life. He was so successful in LA, and she was so proud of him. She knew that he was truly happy with his life, and could only wish she could help find him a woman that will make him even happier. That's if he has the time, she chuckled to herself.
Pacey appeared behind Joey, and made her jump. 'PACEY! That's not funny! You nearly gave me a heart attack!' She screamed startled, blushing as Pacey started to laugh hysterically. 'You can laugh all you want Witter, you're going to have to walk to the shops, Dawson just reminded me that there's no public transport this weekend, a strike or something I think.' Joey got up and walked into the lounge, and picked up her car keys. 'Here, on second thoughts, take my car. I don't use it enough anyway and deserves a good runabout.' Pacey chuckled to himself, grabbed the keys off Joey and pulled her into a deep kiss. 'I love ya Jo, you know you're amazing' , he gushed, while planting her soft, glowy face with warm kisses. 'I try Witter, I try', she smiled back.
With that, Pacey headed out the door and into Joey's car. I should have grabbed some coffee first, thought Pacey, never mind, I'll grab some from Starbucks when I'm out.
Joey hopped into the shower after Pacey had left, thinking of how to bring up the conversation of moving. She knew in her heart of hearts that she wanted to be with Pacey, whether that be in New York, Capeside or Hong Kong. Her love for him was strong, stronger than anything else and she knew that they would make the right decision and end up together happy for the rest of their lives. They had been doing this silly arrangement for two years now, just seeing each other at weekends, or when they could get the odd week off. It seemed a good idea to start with, but now it was getting ridiculous. Joey craved the love and adoration from Pacey every night. She hated the cold side of the bed when he wasn't there, and she missed him terribly. Every time she thought of Pacey, her heart ached. She loved him so much she couldn't even describe it. She wanted his children. She blushed when that thought entered her head. We're not even married or living together yet, she thought. Yet, she knew what she wanted, and couldn't wait to start making her dreams a reality.
Forty-five minutes had passed, and Joey glanced at the clock. It was ten o'clock, and Pacey had been gone ages. Strange, she thought, maybe there was extra traffic because there was no public transport . She kept herself busy with an email back to Dawson.
'Hey Stranger!
So nice to hear from you, bet you can't wait to go to South Africa. I know Pace and I will be on the first plane out there for a Safari tour! Haha, make sure you get us some tickets ;)
I'm going to have the talk with him tonight, I can't wait to actually just get this out in the open. I need to start settling down properly, and I hope he feels the same. I love him so much Dawson, I just hope he wants the same thing I do.
Anyway, I must dash, phones ringing. I think its Pacey stuck in traffic. Thanks for the heads up on transport situation. Will email you later tonight.
Love, Joey'
Joey quickly shut her laptop and ran to the ringing phone.
'Hello?' she answered quickly, with her belly rumbling she was going to get cross soon so Pacey had better hurry up!
'Hello, am I speaking to Miss Potter?' said the voice on the phone. Junk calls irritated Joey. 'Yes this is she,' she answered in a short, firm tone. ' This is Doctor Wakeman from City Hospital. There has been an accident and a Pacey Witter has you down as next of kin. If you could make your way...' she trailed off, not realising that Joey had already left her apartment, desperate for a quick dash to the hospital. I've lost him, she thought. I've lost him.
