College twists

Pacey quickly put on his jeans and a shirt. Then he ran downstairs. "Guys is Jo' still here?" "No pace, what happened?" "Jen, that's just it. Nothing happened. Nothing at all." "Well something must have happened. Tell us exactly what went on upstairs." "I went upstairs to change. I sat on the bed to think. Jo' came in and I told her it was my fault for the accident. Then she came and held me. She told me she loves me and that if I would have died then she would too. I told her I loved her too. We started to kiss. Before we knew it we were practically naked. Being the responsible safe sex advocate I reached into my pocket for a condom. She got off the bed and starting getting dressed. She said we can't do this and I asked was it because of someone else. She started crying and told me not to do this. She then left." Jen sighed. "Pace, she told you she loved you and then you try to get her in the sack. Didn't you think she was scared?" "What is there to be afraid of Jen? I'm not some stranger who never had sex with her before." Jack added, "Maybe it's the reason why she dumped you in the first place." "Do you know why she dumped me in the first place Jack? I sure as hell don't. I think she is seeing someone else." That is when Marilyn stepped in. "Oh please boy wonder, she never leaves the dorm unless it's to go to the library. I think the only guy on campus she knows is the library aid." "How do you know she is not seeing him?" "Well, he is married with children. Plus he is 45." Pacey said thanks and ran to the B&B. he rang the bell and Joey answered the door. Before she could close it in his face he put out his foot to stop the door from closing. "Jo' please listen. I'm sorry and I would like to be your friend. I shouldn't have let things go that far. So what do you say, friends?" Joey said fine and closed the door.

The next few months were awkward. Dawson and Marilyn started dating a week after the funeral. Joey was waiting for Pacey to try and get her back again. This time she wouldn't refuse him. One day she got feed up. "Dang it Mar!" "J.P. we are in the library. Be softer. What wrong" "Mar why hasn't Pacey asked me back yet? Have I not been giggly? Have I not been touchy? Have I not paraded around in short shirts, low tops and high heels? Why hasn't he responded?" Joey was still whispering but a lot of haste was in her voice. "J.P. like I said before, affairs of the heart plagues you too much when Pacey boy is in the Picture." Joey nodded. "Mar, I bet he moved on and forgot about me by now." "Oh J.P. see that guy over there? (She points) he has been flirting with you for almost a month. Boy wonder has not kissed you in three! I'm not saying he moved on and there is no hope, but maybe you should stop waiting for something that may never happen, maybe you should have a little fun." Joey stared at Marilyn then it registered. Joey stood up and walked over to the guy. "Hey Seth. You remember me? I'm Joey. Uh what are you doing on Saturday?"
