Author's Note: Hey I just want to let you guys know that most of this story will be in Joey's P.O.V. I really like her character and think I can develop a story better by using her. I will try to get everybody's in at least once. Tell me if you would like otherwise. Suggestions are recommended and welcomed!
Joey's P.O.V:
The boat ride had a creepy feeling that sent a shiver down your spine. I couldn't stop shaking it was so cold and the waves would get so high that they would crash into the boat, almost flipping us over. We were all snuggling together keeping warm, except that even the little warmth our small circle would bring us, the waves threw us around and making Jack and Jen get motion sickness. I couldn't believe we are on this boat and pretty much could get thrown into the ice cold, disserted body of water, in the darkness and all because Dawson wanted to shoot his damn movie.
Currently, we all gave up trying to sit on the sets of the boat and just formed a circle on the wooden floor of the boat. The old man just kept quiet and steered us to our destination. I had a feeling that old man knew more than he was leading on but for some reason held back as if he wanted us to go to the island. This is all just crazy….
"Hey Joey you alright?" Jen said with a questionable look.
I turned to her confused, it's not like she really cares how I am so I'm not sure why she's asking. But apparently that look was enough for her because she added, "Look I know you might hate me, but I don't hate you so I was just trying to be nice."
"Uhh ok, I'm fine." I said back still not quite believing that she cares about my feelings, for all I know she could be trying to use me to get closer to Dawson. With that in my mind now, I can't help but feel pissed off that he has been paying more attention to Jen Lindley than me. I've known him longer, that should count for something.
"Potter what's got your panties in a knot? Am I turning you on too much by sitting next to you?"
"In your dreams Witter, because there's no way in hell I would ever be turned on by you." Except that one time before we left, but if he knew that I wouldn't hear the rest of it. That was just a fluke, it never happened.
"Well I still believe you're turned on by me but what else is making you turn all red and puffy….. Ahh wait does this have anything to do with Mr. Leery and Ms. Lindley?"
I turned away not being able to look at him because if I did he would get the conformation I wasn't ready to accept. Luckily before Pacey could try to ask more questions the old man had spoken.
"Well we have arrived to your destination, The Mystical Falls." He spoke as he hooks the rope up to a crooked, unsteady looking dock.
"Wow I felt like we would never get here it feels like forever since I've seen anything but water and darkness." Jack says as he and Tony are the first ones to step off the boat onto the unreliable dock. "Hey guys this dock isn't too bad." Jack says as we hear a snap and Jack and Tony go running off to the end of the dock.
"Well guess we will have to do this one at a time and slowly, so no one falls off the dock." Dawson says as he sets foot on the dock, it swaying a little, and a nervous Jen holds on tight to him making sure if she falls he's going with her.
I saw Pacey stepped off and thinking I would have to get off all by myself. Typical Dawson always helping the needy, clingy blonde girls. Retard. But to my surprise Pacey turns around and holds out his hand. It was kinda sweet actually. Wait what am I saying? I'm an independent woman.
"No Pacey I don't need your help I can get off the boat myself. " I was determined to get off by myself.
"Whatever, Ms. Independent, if you fall I won't catch you."
I rolled my eyes and Started to step off, I had my first foot on the dock and was about to bring my other foot down until SNAP! The whole end of the dock was going down, fast and hard. I was for sure going down with it into the icy cold water but just as quickly as the thought came hands were under my armpits pulling me up. I had looked up and Pacey's eyes were starring into mine. As he put me down I couldn't help but think of he would bother catching me. Pacey has been awfully nice, well at least nicer than usual.
"Don't get use to me saving you life Potter, you owe me one now." He said with a smug look.
I smiled a little and walked to the group as they all gathered around me.
"You okay Jo?" Dawson asked with shock in his eyes from the previous events.
"Yup."
"Uhh, guys where did the old man go?" Tony asked while holding Jack's hand.
"I could've sworn I just saw him." Jack added.
We all got a little freaked out as the old man didn't even say goodbye. Maybe he was too afraid to stay long, I mean he did say this place is cursed after all. As we all took a long silence trying to figure out in their minds about the old man, Dawson was the first to break the silence.
"Well we should just find a good spot and set up tents for the night so we can get a good night sleep and start our adventure tomorrow! O Pacey, Joey you guys don't mind sharing a tent right?" Dawson said looking at us.
"WHAT!"
