Category: Other- Friendship

Rating: PG-13

Distribution: Capeside Diaries, fanfiction.net, AdultCreekFic, Capeside Pals, Finnatics, my own personal website, and anywhere else, as long as you ask first. ;)

Dedication: To anyone who missed their graduation and everything that is involved- grad night, prom, and the actual ceremony. I regret missing it all, although I got no choice in the matter.

Summary: Finally caught up on all the episodes and after Gretchen's yearbook entry, I got sentimental, mushy and thought I had to come up with this before anyone else did. Although, someone was probably already pushing this idea around, if not posted it some where already. Oh, well.

Spoilers: See Season 4, basically.

Jack, Well, it's the day before our graduation, which means after that the countdown will begin towards the move to Boston. I'm so glad your going with me to college, Jack. I don't think it's possible for you to know how scared I am.wait I take that back, your probably just as scared. I heard about how you called Tobey the B word to Andie today and I have to officially say that you now are getting more action then I am, lol. I can't believe how much has happened since we first met. Remember that first time we met? The dance that Andie and Dawson set you and I up on and then Dawson punched you in the face and you still walked me home that night. The perfect gentleman, beyond the whole stealing Joey right from underneath his nose thing. ;) Who would have ever known that after that night we would be come such close friends. I always used to be envious of the relationship that Dawson and Joey had because they could tell each other anything, but now I'm not anymore because I have you, Jack and I feel like we are our own type of Dawson and Joey. You helped me with Grams, the numerous boyfriends I've been through, and dealing with my alcohol problems. You're part of my family now; Jack and I love you more than you can honestly know. Your going to do great things in this world, I just know it and I plan on being there to see every one of them.

Your best friend, Jen

P.S. If you don't quit reading my Mac laptop and teasing me about those fantasies of mine, I will password protect the whole thing! LOL

Pacey, I'm really glad you decided to get a yearbook even though your graduation is still up in the air right now. I know you've been studying a lot lately, so I know you have the ability to get through all of this and pass just like you were meant to do. We've had so much happening with us these past years that I have no idea where to begin. All I can keep remembering is how Joey would come to me and ask me advice about you.yes, you and you guys' relationship problems. Don't worry, she never spilled too much to me, just enough to get the advice, lol. I realize that things much feel really complicated right now with her and the fact that you don't know what the future holds for you, but honestly? None of us knows what the future holds for any of us. Sure we may be going to college but beyond that.we don't know. Hell, I don't even know what I'm going to major in or how it's going to get paid for. Three years ago, I never thought I would be going to college and at that same time you weren't even concerned about school at all. I watched you with Andie and you changed dramatically, Pacey. After the two of you broke up, you held on to all those same ideals and became a better person. I know that was hard for you, especially with no support from your family. You fell in love again and you got the love of your life, which shows you real love, does exist and you can find it. You don't have to be the smartest person in school, Pacey, to know that you have one of the biggest hearts. With that though, you put this horrible amount of pressure on yourself, which you have no reason to do. You're a special person that all of us can see, except yourself. I hope this summer while you roam the seas, you find that person inside yourself that you are. If you ever want to talk, you know where I'll be.

Your friend, Jen

Andie, I'm so glad that you came back for graduation after being gone so long. I'm not sure I ever told you this, but I've always considered you like a sister to me through Jack. The two of you have been incredibly awesome and selfless when it comes to me and for that I can't thank you enough. I still think back to the rave incident and I'm really glad that nothing devastating happened because of my carelessness. The fact that you never blamed me and got Jack and everyone else to forgive me was the best thing you could do for me. When I first met you, I wished that I had what you did. Not so much the family life, but how smart and together you seemed about everything. You didn't get in trouble or cause problems for anyone- unlike myself. But just like everyone, we hide what's really inside. The amazing thing is how you got help and not only got yourself better but bounced back even better than before. We will probably say this a lot in the yearbooks, but you have a lot of strength inside yourself. I'm really glad you had a great time in Italy and that you've decided to go back again and then go to Harvard in another year. You've got all the time you need ahead of you, so take full advantage of it, Andie and keep all your friends close to you along the way.

Love, your friend, Jen

Dawson,

What can I say to the guy that taught me about movie night? Who showed me, that simple can be as good as exciting, and that eternal optimism is a virtue? For all those things I have to thank you, Dawson. Coming to Capeside to live and having you around was the best thing that happened to me. All those things that you showed me taught me that New York wasn't the best place for me anymore and that I was glad to be gone. I remember feeling so naïve being in this new town, even though everyone thought I was so experienced. I really just wanted to be like the rest of you. Do you remember our first kiss in the ruins? That was like having my first kiss in my life all over again. You are a special guy that deserves the right girl just for you. I remember all those times that you literally held me up when I was too drunk to stand. You let me crash at your house so Grams wouldn't know what I was doing and you stood by me even though I was a hazard waiting to happen. You're one of my best friends; Dawson and I want you to know that I love you for everything that you are and everything that you're going to make for yourself later in life. The only thing I ask for in return is that you mention me when you win that first Oscar. ;) Your friend,

Jen

Joey, In less than a day we are all going to be dressed up in those goofy gowns and listening to you give a speech about our graduating class. I bet you haven't finished it yet either, have you? LOL I read what you wrote in my yearbook and it really touched me, because I too think of you as one of my special girl friends. I, too, didn't have any of those while I was in New York, so finally breaking through your barriers and being your friend was a major accomplishment for me. ;) I know you felt intimidated by me, but I actually was intimidated by you. Why you may ask? Because you had a great life, Joey, you had the boy next door and Pacey as your.well, sparring partner at the time. You were confident and cool towards me, so much so, that I thought you were the competition. We lost a lot of time being rivals, but I'm glad we have made up for it now. I still remember our girl's night out when we went to the skating rink-wearing boas and pajamas; I smile whenever I think of that night. All those times when you came to be about guy stuff really made me feel needed, which is nice to feel sometimes when you don't think your doing anyone any good except screwing stuff up. I really hope you have a great time at Worthington and always remember that Jack and I are a phone call or train ride away.

Your friend, Jen
