Description: This is a post Joey/Pacey break-up fic. It is based five years after they parted ways that fateful night at prom. Two characters Ezra and Andrew are mine. Sort of a crossover fic though it's A/U and -A doesn't existed. I borrowed Ezra from Pretty little Liars, Emily might make an appearance. Not sure yet, if she does it will be as Pacey's ex.
Disclaimer: I own nothing except the original storyline and Andrew, he's of my own imagination.
Author's Note: Review and I will happily update often.
Unexpected Run-ins:
Chapter#11
(Emily's pov)
" Pacey, do you mind telling me why you haven't answered my calls or texts since yesterday morning? More importantly, who the hell was she?", I demand with a frown before folding my arms across my chest. Pacey said that he wanted to work things out with me. What a crock of shit. If that were even remotely true, he wouldn't have another girl at his place. This would explain why I haven't heard from him since yesterday morning. Why would Pacey tell me that he wanted me back if he were seeing someone else? Whatever the case may be he had better start explaining himself and quick.
" Emily, I can explain. That girl who just took off...was Joey.", admits Pacey with a defeated breath. Every muscle in me tenses at the mention of her name. That was Joey? That was his ex-girlfriend from high school? The very one he slept with back in Capeside while home for Christmas a year or so ago? What the hell is she doing here!? I cannot even believe Pacey right now! We're not even back together yet and he's sneaking around behind my back with that bitch? If he doesn't explain himself I'm going to kill him.
" As in your ex-girlfriend, the one you slept with while we were still dating!", I yell out in anger before taking a threatening step toward Pacey. He stumbles back just as quickly before Ezra wisely steps between the two of us. If he were smart he would get the hell out of my way. The last thing I want is to slap the hell out of Ezra but I will not hesitate to do exactly that if he doesn't move. Why is he even trying to defend Pacey right now? Sure they're roommates and good friends, last time I checked though Ezra and I were friends too. Sure we may have drifted when Pacey and I broke up but that doesn't mean I'm any less his friend.
" Emily, calm down. If you should be mad with anyone, it's me. I'm the one who asked Joey to spend the night. How was I to know that she and Pacey knew each other let alone used to date.", informs Ezra in a calm manner in his best attempts to diffuse an already tense situation. He brought Joey here? Why? More importantly how could Ezra not know those two dated? This still doesn't explain what she was still doing here or why Pacey suddenly forgot that I existed. Does he not want to be with me anymore? Is he attempting to work things out with this girl Joey? Where does Ezra fit into this scenario? My guess would be, he liked Joey but had absolutely no clue she used to date Pacey.
Turning my attention from Ezra back to Pacey, I run a frustrated hand through my hair," Pacey...I just want to know what the hell is going on."
Not knowing what to say, Pacey instead lowers his head in shame," Emily, the last thing I ever expected was for Joey to walk back into my life and...I'm really sorry."
" You're sorry?...Pacey...how could you!", I exclaim before pounding on his chest repeatedly. Is Pacey kidding me right now? How could he do this to me? We were so close to working things out and getting back together. Now I want nothing to do with him! God, I cannot believe that I almost considered taking that jackass back! What the hell was I thinking? Did Pacey even want to reconcile things with me? Or was I just his second choice because Joey wasn't available at the time. Whether he slept with her last night or not is irrelevant at this point. At least now I know why Pacey stopped taking my calls and responding to my texts. I cannot believe I came over here with the intent of taking him back.
" Emily, you have every right to hate me. But at least this time I'm being honest and upfront with you.", points out Pacey while taking a sip from his drink. He calls avoiding my texts or calls being honest? Please, if Pacey were going to be honest he would have picked up the phone, called me and told me that he was having second thoughts and wanted to try patching things up with Joey. Is that what he did though? No, it's not. What the hell did I ever even see in him? Right now, I can barely stand to look at Pacey let alone be in the same room as him.
" Please, if that were the case you would have called and not avoided me.", I declare with a shake of my head. Why am I even still here? There is nothing Pacey could possibly say that would change what he's done. We may not be together but he may as well have cheated on me again. That is exactly what if feels like. Why was I even considering giving him a second chance? What the hell was I even thinking? All he managed to do today was succeed in yet again wrecking my heart. God, I hate Pacey so much right now. If I never see him again it will be too soon.
" You're right, I would have. Until a few hours ago, I didn't think I stood a chance with Joey. Now I'm all but sure that I don't.", states Pacey with a frustrated shake of his head. If he is hoping that I'll feel bad and take pity on him, he's dead wrong. Why the hell would I feel sorry for him? Joey waltz back into the picture and all of the sudden I don't even matter anymore. Did he mean any of what he told me? How am I supposed to believe that Pacey ever loved me if he's so quick to toss me aside the minute Joey looks his way.
Not wanting to stick around a minute longer, I turn to walk off," Yeah, well good luck with that Pacey. You had your chance with me and blew it."
Taking off after me, Pacey reaches for my hand to stop me. Whirling around in agitation, I knee him in the groin causing him to double over in pain," Jesus, son of a bitch! Emily, what the hell!"
" Leave me the hell alone Pacey.", I deadpan before taking off without looking back. If he were smart, Pacey would not come after me. The mood that I'm in right now I'll make sure that he's never able to have kids. Coming over here was obviously a mistake. Why I even wanted to rekindle things with Pacey so badly is a mystery to me. Obviously the guy is hung up on his high school flame. That's fine and everything but don't come crawling back to me when it blows up in your face Pacey. I already made the mistake of wanting to get back with him once. I'll be damned if I'm stupid enough to make it twice.
(Pacey's pov)
" Something tells me going after Emily would be a very bad idea Pacey.", advises Ezra much to my disliking. Curling up on the couch in pain, I groan loudly to myself. Could this day get any worse? What the hell did I do to deserve getting kneed in the family jewels? Should I have called Emily and been up front with her the moment I realized there was a chance I might work things out with Joey? Yes, I should have. Here's the thing though, I didn't know there was until only a few hours ago. Now I know for a fact Joey wants nothing to do with me. Neither does Emily now, I really have a way with women it seems.
" Ezra, I know you're trying to help...but shut the hell up.", I manage to get out still bent over in pain. Was what Emily did really necessary? Come on, I get it. She hates my guts right about now. But to knee me in the groin, that was a bit over board. You would think that I just admitted to cheating on her again with the same girl. How is that even possible if this time around we're not even dating?! Of all the times for Emily to come by it had to be now? Joey and I were finally getting along. She had allowed me to hold her in my arms and we even kissed a few times.
" Well there's no reason to be rude, I'm not the one who blew it not only with Emily but Joey also. You did that on your own.", reminds Ezra before grabbing me a bag of ice. Taking the bag of ice, I put it down my pants and let out a scream doing so. Holy crap is that cold! That's it, I think it is safe to say that I'm done with dating for a while. No one girl is worth this kind of pain. The next girl I fall for had better be a hell of a lot less violent then Joey and Emily. Speaking of which it's probably smart that I didn't take off after Potter like I had originally wanted. Knowing her she probably would have decked me one in the jaw.
