"God that was almost 10 years ago" He stopped for a
minute. He'd thought of Joey. Every time he thought of the past
she popped into his head. Didn't matter how hard he tried to not
think about her, she always managed to find a way into his
thoughts. Suddenly his thoughts were interrupted.
"Hey. You going to that school reunion thing." It was
Drue Valentine.
He had moved back to Capeside not long after Pacey had. He was
now running the Yacht Club. Not what he had planned to be doing
with his life. But his mother had fallen ill so he had no choice.
That was about 3 years ago and Drue didn't see the point in
finding another job since he was now running the club. Pacey on
the other hand was working as a teacher. He never figured out how
he managed to get through all the training but he was happy with
his job. Gave him the chance to help out kids who had trouble
studying and stuff. Just like he did.
"What reunion?"
"You know the one that's in about 2 weeks. The one that's
mentioned in the invite to it."
"Invite? Oh hang on" Pacey got up out of the chair and
went inside. He hadn't actually bother to open his mail this
morning. It didn't looked like a bill. He found and opened it.
Just like Drue said it was an invite to the reunion. He glanced
over it. Yep it was in two weeks from today. He walked back
outside.
"Yeah I got it, just never opened it."
"So you going to. Think about what else do you suppose we'll
be doing."
Him and Drue had become friends since they both moved back. They
were usually at his beach house or at the yacht club.
"I don't know. I mean it's on a Friday. I usually get up
earlier on a Saturday to help Bessie and Bodie at the B+B"
He had did it every Saturday since moving back. It was yet
another thing that reminded him of Joey. That's not why he helped
though. He helped because he enjoyed it. He'd helped when they
were first opening and saw it as only fair.
"Oh come on man, I'm sure Bessie will understand."
Pacey thought for a moment.
"What have I got to lose. If I don't enjoy myself then I'll
go home"
"Ok then, but if it's totally boring I'm leaving." Drue
turned to leave shouting "Bye" as he went.
Pacey sat back into his chair and returned to his thoughts which
Drue had so kindly interrupted before.
