The brackets are Joey's thoughts
Pacey couldn't believe his eyes. He never thought Dawson would do this, especially after what happened in high school. Pacey did that throat clearing thing. Dawson and the brunette looked up. "Pacey! Uh, hi." "Hey Dawson. I see you are a little busy." "Listen man, don't tell everyone that I'm, you know." The brunette spoke. "That you're gay. Are you going to be a gay guy whose closet door is stuck?" "Of course not Jack, I want to tell everyone myself." "Excuse me you two new found love birds, I need to go." "bye." They said together. Pacey started to walk to Joey's dorm again. "Who would have known those two would end up together? Well, people said the same about me and Jo' and look where we ended up, getting together, having secret baby scares, and fighting to be together." Pacey was talking to himself.
When Pacey got on the same street as Joey's dorm house he saw her come down the steps. "Joey, wait up!" Joey heard him and turned around. She quickly walked in the other direction. Pacey ran to her. "Joey I want to talk." "Go away Pacey!" he grabbed her arm. She turned around. "Please Jo'." She turned around and looked into his blue eyes. They were filled with pain. [How could I do this to the man I love?] "Okay." He let go of her arm. "First, I want to know why you didn't tell me about your pregnancy scares?" "Where did you hear that from?" "Joey I need to know." "Why? I wasn't pregnant." "Tell me! Did you not think I was not good enough to know?" "No, it wasn't that!" "What then?" "I was scared! Okay, I was scared." "Scared of what?" "Everything! I was afraid you would leave me, I was afraid that I would lose the one thing that truly mattered. I left you before you could leave me and find someone new and laugh at me." "Jo', you really thought I would do that? Joey if you were pregnant I would stay with you. I would never leave you. God Joey, if you would have told me I could have been there to help you. When were they?" "One was when you left during senior year and the other was that summer." "Joey it doesn't matter now. I don't care that you didn't tell me. You came back to me. Why did you leave me yesterday?" Joey was crying. "Pacey, it was just sex." "You can't really believe that Joey. It was never just sex between us. Two days ago, we had more than just sex. That night was filled with more passion than the first time we made love. You told me you loved me. Are you taking that back?" "No, I will always love you." "Then how can you believe it was just sex?" "It has to be, it just has to be, I can't handle it if it becomes anything more." Joey ran inside crying.
When she reached her dorm she went in. once she was in, she dropped her keys and sunk to the floor. She just cried. [Why can't I be stronger?] After a few minutes there was a knock at the door. "Hang on." Joey got up and wiped her tears. She opened the door. There stood in front of her a very pregnant Andie. "Oh my god! You're pregnant!" "So I've noticed. Joey we need to talk."Joey didn't feel like talking but helped Andie to a chair any way. "Jeepers Joey, what happened?" "Something with Pacey." "Joey I know I'm probably not your favorite person right now but I still would like to be your friend." "Well, okay. Pacey and I had gotten together two nights ago and I left early in the morning. I have no idea what I was thinking, how could I sleep with him?" "Why is it so surprising that you would?" "I love him so much but I am afraid to love him. I don't want to get hurt again." "Joey do you remember when you saw Pacey and I kissing?" "How could I forget? Pacey was cheating. What do you think is holding me back?" "Well, he wasn't cheating." "What?" "He wasn't cheating on you. I came that day to tell him I loved him, but his only response was how he loved you so much. He would never cheat on anyone. Especially the only girl that really mattered to him." "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" "I didn't because I was still in love with him until yesterday. I talked to him after your night together. He was so miserable. I knew I caused all this chaos. He told me how he couldn't live without you. You were the holder of his heart, or something." "Keeper." "What?" "Pacey gave me a necklace with a heart charm on it that had to Joey, the keeper of my heart inscribed on it." Joey showed it to Andie. "I never take it off. I feel horrible. Today I saw his eyes. The once happy blue love magnets were filled with pain. How could I do that to the man I love? What kind of human am I?" "You're a girl who is afraid to be in love." Andie said good bye and left.
Joey called Dawson and told him her story. "Joey, you are nothing more than a 21 year old Anti- social drama queen who subconsciously knew what she was doing but never spent enough time to analyze all of the data, so that now she is submerged in a recurring phase of running away, dejavu if you will, leaving a solution deprived girl who, in reality, has the solution right under her nose." "You've been reading psych books again." "Well, am I wrong?" "No, but what is right under my nose?" "You know. I believe when the time comes you will do the right thing." Dawson hung up the phone leaving a very confused Joey on the other line.
Pacey had to get Joey back. He had the perfect plan.
