The Reunion

The Reunion

A loud bang on Drue's front door had woken him up. The bang kept coming until he opened. He yawned and stretched. Pacey walked in.
"Morning to you too Pacey." He said yawning at the same time.
"Drue I need to borrow your car. Mines in for repairs and I need to go to Boston."
"Oh right, to see Joey I guess?" Drue, still yawning, sat back in on in his living room.
"How'd you know? Oh I guess Jen must have told you. So can I borrow it?"
"Yes Jen told me this morning. Really early this morning. Which is why I'm still tired. And you know I'd love to lend you my car but like yours Pacey Witter it too needs repairs." Drue yawned once again. "But if you find away of getting there please let me know as I'd like to go with to thank Miss Lindley for the early wake up call."
"Sure yeah whatever. I'm going to Doug's." Pacey yelled as he walked out the door.
He didn't bother knocking at Doug's door. He was always up early. He'd also calmed down now. He realized he was a bit frantic at Drue's.
"Morning Deputy Douggie. May I please borrow your car as I need to make a trip to Boston and mine and Drue's are in for repairs." He asked as nicely as he could. If he went in there yelling there's be no chance.
Doug was eating breakfast on the sofa. "Pacey I'm not Deputy anymore." He'd taken over his dad position in the police when he had retired. "And you may borrow my car as long as I have it back by 10."
"Thanks Deputy!" He grabbed the keys and ran before Doug had anytime to change his mine.
15 minutes later he was back at Drue's yelling at him to get ready. He heard Drue muttering something about not having enough time to get ready. Pacey just reminded him that if he wanted to see Jen he'd have to hurry up. That made Drue move. Pacey wondered why Drue was so desperate to see her. He hadn't spoke about since moving back and they didn't seem to get on that well in high school.
"About time." He announced as Drue came running down the stairs.
"Shut it Witter. People should not be up this early on a Sunday. So you got the car? But till when?"
"Well Doug wants it back by 10. He never told me what day though." He and Drue laughed and climb in. Pacey driving and Drue in the passenger seat.
Joey was lying face up on her sofa, Jack was in the kitchen and Jen was sitting opposite her.
"Did I do the right thing Jen?" She asked rolling on to her side to face her.
"Honestly Jo I don't know. You probably did. It'll give you time to think and clear your head. Then when you're ready you can ring him."
"Or maybe it just seems like I'm running way when things got hard." She thought out loud. Jack came from the kitchen holding 3 cans of beer and videos.
"To cheer you up we're going to spend the afternoon drinking and watching videos." Jack smiled and handed out the cans. Jen smiled and moved long the sofa so Jack could sit. Joey smiled too, even though she wasn't smiling inside.
About 4 films and a lot of cans of beer later there was a knock at the door. Joey got up to answer but fell back down on to her sofa. Her and Jen burst out laughing so Jack got up to answer the door. He tried to walk over there in a straight but was unsuccessful. Eventually he opened the door.
"Pacey! Drue! Great to see you! Come in!" he said happily. It was obvious to them he'd been drinking. That they all had. AS soon as Joey heard Jack yell Pacey's name she stopped laughing. Jen did the same when she heard Drue's. They both stood up.
