Description: this is a story I have been working on for a while. This is my fifth Dawson's Creek story. I'll writing this as well as Conflicted Love, Love Unrequited, Unlikely Pair and Clueless Affection on here now.

Chapter #2
(Bessie's pov)
"Depends on the suggestion Bess.", remarks Joey in a cautious tone. She has every right to be weary right now. There is a high chance that Joey isn't going to like what I am about to say. But I think instead of obsessing and wasting her time on Dawson, a guy who doesn't even realize what is right in front of him….Joey should give other guys a chance. One particular guy that I think she should give a chance, would be Pacey. Those two bicker and fight like a married couple enough as it is. I think that they would be a great couple. There is obviously something going on between the two of them, neither realizes it as of yet though.
"Have you ever considered dating Pacey? I really think the two of you would make a cute couple, Joe.", I confide with an encouraging smile and light nudge. The look on Joey's face currently is one of shock and disgust. Yeah, can't say that I didn't see this reaction coming from a mile away. Joey has more than made it clear that she is repulsed by the mere sight of Pacey. At times I think she exaggerates how much she loathes him.
"Pacey Witter? Are you cracked out of your mind Bessie? Why in the world would I ever want to do such a crazy thing like that?", explodes Joey with a sarcastic laugh and roll of her eyes. Oh, come on. Give me a break Joe. I might be reaching just a tad but there is definitely something between the two of you. When two people argue and despise one another as much as those two do? It usually means that they secretly like each other. You always tease the ones you love. It is simple kindergarten logic. My guess, Pacey didn't spend the last ten years teasing, taunting and chasing Joey around for the fun of it.
"Come on, Josephine. What is wrong with Pacey? Don't you think you're overreacting? Pacey is really handsome Joe. You should give him a chance.", I reason with a sigh before grabbing the both of us a few cookies from the pantry. Joey might not see what I am talking about right now because she is a little hung up on Dawson. But I'm not blind. I know what I am talking about here. The sooner Joey opens herself up to the possibility that she might like Pacey? The quicker she will realize that she does.
Pouring herself a drink, Joey pulls a chair up to the counter," Do you want me to make a list for you? Why are we still having this conversation? Pacey is not an option for me, end of story."
With a shake of my head, I toss a grape into my mouth," Why do you insist on being so stubborn little sis?"
"Why do you insist on trying to set me up with my arch enemy?", challenges Joey before folding her arms across her chest. Right of course, why would I expect any other kind of reaction for Joey? I should have known better than to think that she wouldn't fight me tooth and nail on this. I don't even know why I opened my mouth. It's just, I seriously think that Joey and Pacey would make an absolute amazing couple.
"You're right forget that I ever asked Joe.", I cave with a defeated sigh as I shake my head in disbelief. It amazes me how incredibly stubborn Joey can be when she really tries to be. I'm not shocked though, being hard headed has always sort of been a Potter women family trait. Joey certainly has our mother's fight in her. Stubbornness was always one of the things of that I admired in our mother when she was alive. Unfortunately it's not something that admire in Joey as much. ….(End Bessie's pov)
