People may come and go from your life,
But true friends will never leave your side.

After they finished up the kitchen Dawson and Gretchen went out to the living room to cuddle on the couch. The body entangled together on the couch it couldn't be told where Dawson ended and Gretchen started. "Do you remember when we went to Pacey and Joey's wedding?" Dawson asked.

"Yes," she said. "That is a weekend I will never forget."

"Me either it plays in my mind like a movie I never grow old of," Dawson said.

***

Everyone had come back home to Capeside for the wedding of a life time. Old friends were once again together. It was a celebration of a wedding between two of the greatest friends. Pacey and Joey sat at the table away from everyone for a few moments. Both caught up in the love the were feeling at this moment that they didn't even care about anything going on between the two of them. There were the only two people around in their minds.

Dawson had his video camera out catching that special moment between two lovers. He wasn't able to get what was said, but he knew that they would love it as it gift. The made sure to focus on the way they looked into each other eyes, and the way that Pacey gentle brushed a strain of hair from her face that the gentle breeze has knocked out of place. He made sure to catch the way Joey looked at him as if see him for the first time, and knowing that this was going to be the man she woke up with for the rest of her life.

"Taping anything good?" Gretchen asked as she sat down next to him.

He was quite for a moment before turned off his camera to talk to Gretchen. "Just a moment between Pacey and Joey. I seem to have stumbled into one of the sweet moment between to people in love," he said as he looked at the two of them.

"What I wouldn't give to have that kind of love," she said to him, but to really no one at all either.

"I know what you mean," he said as he looked at her. "I would love just to have for a moment what they are going to have for the rest of their lives. I want to be able to look into someone eyes and to know that it is going to be forever," he said as he looked at Gretchen. They always seem to have bad timing when it came to being together. He was in love with her, but it couldn't work. If they were lucky they would get two weeks together before one of them had to leave for work.

She leaned in closer to them and said, "I hope one day that you and me can share a piece of the love that they have. I know we have talked about being together, and that it doesn't even seem to work. I know one day when are timing is right to settle down together it will work out though."

"I really hope so," he said before giving her a sweet gentle kiss.

"You were right though," he said as he played with a strain of her hair.

"What was a right about?" she asked.

"You said, 'I know one day when are timing is right to settle down together it will work out.' I always put all my faith into it, and I am truly glad that it work out between us," he said.

"Me too," she said giving him a kiss. "You know what memory of us gave me hope that this was going to last?" she asked.

"No," he said.

"Do you remember the night that Wade was born, and they weren't sure if he was going to make it or not?" she asked.

"Yeah," he said.

"Wade was just two days old, and we were finally allowed into the room to see him. Pacey had talked the nurse into allowing us into the room. So there we were sitting there watching Wade trying to fight with all his might to make it though the night. It wasn't sure he is was going to be able to fight it though another night, but we sat there. You sat on the rocker, and I was on you lap on one side of the crib while Pacey and Joey were on the other side. We weren't really talking, but we all know we were all the same page with our thoughts. You were the first one to speak. Do you remember what you said?" Gretchen asked.

"No," Dawson said as he tried to remember what he had said that night.

"You took hold of Wades hand in your hand and said, 'Wade you have to be a fighter and make it though. You have a family her for you that would do anything in their powers to make you happy. Me and you Aunt Gretchen sat up talking about you last night. One thing I didn't tell her though was that I want you to make it though so that when we finally have a little baby you can teach him/her everything you know.' It was that moment that I knew I wanted to marry you." Gretchen said.

He didn't know what to say. For the first time in a long time he was speechless around her. Instead he just wrapped her closer to him, and held her tight never wanting to let go. They entangled together on the couch. It was this moment and only this moment that matter.

****

Gretchen was the first on to wake up the next morning. They had fallen asleep on the couch cuddling that night before. She nudged in closer to Dawson as she allowed herself to take in this moment. They had waken up plenty of times in this same spot, but this morning was different. She didn't want to forget any of these moment. She heard the phone rang, and tried to get away from Dawson to answer it before he awoke, but she was too late. "Hey," he said.

"Hey, sleepy head," she said back to him as she gave him a kiss. "I love you."

"Love you too," he said.

They spent the next half hour in each other arms before they decided to call home to let everyone know about the two of them. Everyone was thrilled that they were finally getting together, but no one was as happy for them as Pacey and Joey. They had made plans for that night to met Pacey's house for dinner.
