hey guys. Here the next part.
Joey and Pacey walked hand in hand down the streets of Capeside. Neither one of them knew what to say after what they had just seen this morning. The news of Dawson being sick really hit them, but it hurt more that they used to be so close, and now they didn't even notice that their best friend was dying. The doctor didn't say that he was dying, but they just kind of figure he would never be the same again.
"Pacey, do you think Dawson know that we love him?" Joey asked Pacey as they sat down in front of the high school.
"I think he does, but I really don't know," said Pacey looking down at the ground. It really hurt him to see Dawson in all this pain. "Jo we have to do something for him though."
"I know but what?" Joey asked looking in Pacey's eyes.
"I don't know maybe we should get the whole gang together. We have to do something though. I mean my sister can't be the only on taking care of him," said Pacey.
" I know, but I also know that the two of them are in love. Gretchen won't leave Dawson's side. You knew how hard it was to get her to go home and get some sleep. She doesn't want to leave," said Joey.
"I know, I think this is hurting my sister a lot more then she is saying," said Pacey.
"It is hurting her more then anyone. If I was Dawson, and your were Gretchen would you be feeling a whole lot of pain?" Joey asked.
"Jo, if you were in as much pain as Dawson is right now I would be dying in side," said Pacey. "I can't live knowing how much pain you would be in."
"That is how Gretchen must be feeling. Every time I look at her she seems like she ready to cry, but instead she put a smile on her face, and just holds Dawson's hands. She is in love with the boy next door," said Joey.
"Jo, I know. She in love with the guy who used to be in love with you," said Pacey.
"Pacey that was a lifetime ago though. Dawson has moved on just like I have. I have you in my life, and Dawson has Gretchen. You know what he told me this morning?" Joey asked.
"What?" asked Pacey.
"He told me that I didn't have to worry about him any more because he has Gretchen," said Joey. "It a sign that he has moved on and that we are finally able to be just friends."
"Jo, I know. I know that all you guys are friends, but we have a friend now that is in so much pain that I can't stand to even be in the same room. I know that I'm in there for to long I will just start crying," said Pacey. Tear began to fall down his face.
Joey wrapped her arms around Pacey, and started to cry also. The pain was too much for either one of them to handle. There were losing the one person in their life that had been there since they were little. They remember the three of them going every where together, but in the past year it seem that everything had change. Dawson was with Gretchen, and Pacey and Joey were together. There was no more Pacey, Joey and Dawson, and it scared them now. It one day might just be Pacey and Joey with the memory of Dawson Leery.

Gail and Mitch watch their oldest son though the doorway of his hospital room. They didn't want to intrude on Gretchen and Dawson, because they knew that for the past few months Gretchen had been the one that Dawson and run to when things had gotten rough. It hurt a lot though for them to realize that they hadn't been good parents to the son who meant the most to them before Matt was born.
"Do you think were bad parents?" Gail asked Mitch.
"I think we have made a few mistakes, but I don't think that makes us bad parents," said Mitch. "Why do you think we are?"
"Because here Dawson he been sick for a few days now, and we didn't even notice. Gretchen comes over and she takes care of him. I just feel like I should have check on him sooner," said Gail.
"I know, but he looked fine. I just thought he missed Gretchen, and that was why he was spending so much time alone in his room," said Mitch.
"I know, but don't you think we should have notice. We should have gone and talked to him about it. I mean he is our son," said Gail.
"I know, but he's getting help now. We will be here for him though it," said Mitch.
"I think we are going to have company," said Gail looking at Dawson and Gretchen cuddling on the bed. "I just wish the two of them would make it official that they are going out."
"I know what you mean. They been dancing around it for ten months now," said Mitch. "How about we go get some coffee and give them a few more minutes alone?"
"That sounds like a great idea," said Gail.

Gretchen and Dawson were laying on the bed listening to the radio. When the song I'm going to make you love me by the "The Jayhowks" came on. "Dawson listen to these words."
"I'm going to make you love me I'm going dry your tears and were going to stay together for a millions years. "
"Are you saying you love me?" Dawson asked.
"Dawson yes I am. I have loved you for a long time now, and if I don't tell you know I'm going to regret it," said Gretchen,
Dawson just looked at Gretchen for a minute and then said. "I love you too." He leaned closer to her, and gave her a kiss. A kiss that meant what they had just said.
