I just want to say thank you guys for the reviews. Also to let you know that we do have some p/j in this fanfic. Nothing much now, but maybe more down the line.
A moment in time,
Is the history of a couple.
He had been brought out of the daze by the telephone. "Hello," he said into it after the second ring.
"Hey man, just wanted to let you know where going to be a little late," the guy said on the other end.
"Wade not listening to you guys again?" Dawson said as he walked out into the living room.
"Yeah, Joey has just spent the past thirty minutes getting him dressed, and now he out of everything again," he said.
"Take your time. Were in no rush tonight," Dawson said as he looked to see what was made for dinner.
"Okay, we will be over as soon as we can. As soon as Joey gets him dressed were leaving," he said.
"Okay Pacey," Dawson said.
"See you in a few," he said before he hung up the phone.
"What did Pacey need?" Gretchen asked as she walked out of the shower wearing her robe and a towel holding her hair up.
"Just saying they are going to be late. Wade just completely undressed himself after Joey spent thirty minutes getting him dressed," he said he walked over to her and gave her a kiss. He gentle rubbed his hand against her face.
"See what we have to look forward to when we have kids," she said as she smiled at him.
"Yeah, but I think it will be fun when the time comes," he said. "So is there anything you need me to do?" He asked.
"Not unless you want to help me get dress," she said with a smirk.
"Is that an invite?" he asked.
"Maybe," she said as she walked towards the bedroom. He followed after her into the bedroom. It was one part of their relationship that he loved the most. One thing they never had in the past was a deep physical connection, but now a day they couldn't keep their hands off each other.

Pacey, Joey, and Wade arrived about thirty minutes later. Wade was still full clothed, but they all knew he would start to get into something else. They sat around the living room before they went to eat dinner in the kitchen. After they talked for a little while Dawson sat down on the floor along with Wade. "What you doing?" he said to the little guy.
Wade kept his focus on the trucks that he had all around the floor. He handed Dawson one of his trucks, and said, "Race."
"You want to have a race?" Dawson asked.
Wade moved the trucks out of the way so that he could race Dawson. He took the hand that Dawson hand the truck in, and put it next to the end of the coffee table. "Ready…. Set…Go" he said. He rushed off with his toy truck, and Dawson followed and let him win this game.
"You win," he said when Wade reached the couch just below Gretchen's feet.
Gretchen looked at him and said, "See this is why we don't need to have kids yet. You have Wade," she said with a smile before giving him a small little kiss.
"Yuck," Wade said when he saw them.
Everyone laughed a little. "He doesn't that when we kiss too," Pacey said. "He seems to be going though the phase. I think he must have picked it up when he was at the park or something."
"Yeah," said Joey. "I don't think it could have been from day care," she said as Wade climbed up on his lap. "Hey little boy. Are you having fun?"
"Yeah," he said snuggling into his mommy.
The rest of the night went by. It had become a weekly thing having dinner Dawson and Gretchen's apartment so it wasn't like they had to catch up. They talked about things going on in their life over the past week. They also talked about maybe going back to Capeside for a few weeks in the summer. Wade started to fall asleep at the table so they decided to head home for the night. After they said they good-bye. Dawson and Gretchen walked back into the kitchen to clean the mess up.
"So how cute is Wade?" Gretchen asked as she stood in front of the sink.
"He the cutest. He makes me think about having kids one day with you," he said as he stood behind her and wrapped his arms around her.
"I know what you mean," she said.
They did the dishes together for a few minutes before he said, "But do you know what we need to do first before we have kids?"
She stopped what she had been doing, and looked at him. "What do you mean?" She asked.
"I was just thinking. We have talked about having kids together one day. So I assume that talking about kids means that we both feel that we want to get married," he said as he looked at her. "Am I right?" He asked.
"Yes," she said as she found it hard to breath at this moment.
"I was thinking since we kind of been talking about it a lot lately, that since I am so madly in love with you, and I hoping you're so madly in love with me, I was wondering if you would like to marry me?
"Yes," she said as she jumped on him to give him this huge kiss. "I love you so much Dawson Leery."
"I love you to Gretchen Witter soon to be Leery," he said as he kissed her.
"I like the sound of that," she whispered back to him. "Gretchen Leery, it has a nice ring to it."
"Yes it does," he said as he took the ring out of his pocket and put it on her finger. "I love you."
He thought back to the first night he told her that he loved her.
***
They were at her little apartment in Paris he had pretty much moved into her place but checked into the hotel just in case anyone called for him. There were on the couch both doing their work when he said, "I just want to tell you Gretchen I am madly in love with you."
She looked up from her paper, and moved over on top of him. "I'm madly in love with you too," she whispered before she gave him a kiss. They had only been together officially for a little over a week, but they knew at that moment that it was going to be part of their history together forever.
