Pacey was lying on his bed smiling when his roommate, Donny Brooke, came into the room. "Well Pace what are you smiling about?" "The world works in my favor now Don, things are workin' my way." "So what happened?" "I got a letter telling me that she doesn't hate me anymore." Pacey finished reading the letter. Pacey drop it and his smile faded. "Hey what's wrong?" "Joey doesn't hate me but she doesn't want me." "Man, stop with this Joey chick! Tonight is New Years Eve and you my friend are going to get a kiss from a luvly lady." "I don't want to go." "Pace, its nine now and the party just started. Get in the car or else." "Fine, but I'm not hooking up with some one." "Whatever I'll be there in a second." When Pacey was in the car Donny read the letter.

Dear Pacey,

I have to apologize. What I said when we broke up was way out of line. I shouldn't have said what I said. I would never hope that you would burn in hell. I don't hate you. God only knows why but I don't. Pacey, when you had sex with the unknown Barbie, I was really hurt. I thought you moved on so I dated Seth. Something made me fall harder for you then I ever have. After I learned that Barbie was Andie I got upset. My love for you was so strong that I saw past your indiscretion. It you would have asked me to marry you then I would have said yes. That day when I saw you and Andie kissing, my world turned upside down. My heart broke into a million pieces. I'm not ready for you. I don't know if I'll ever be. I don't want to get hurt again. I'm sorry Pace for my mistake. I shouldn't have kissed you at Christmas. It was just an impulse. I hope we can be friends.

Always with you,
Potter

Not all hope is lost. The party is next followed by Andie's confession.
Then probably the k-mart thing. In all only four or five chapters left before it's over. Then I write a new
story!
