Once again...don't own these characters or the show...obviously
An hour and a half later, the bus arrives at the camp and comes to a screeching halt.
"Alright everyone, we're here. Now when you get off the bus, wait over by the cabin right in front and I will give you the cabin assignments, along with the rules and regulations you are to follow while you are here." Maureen announces, as she exits the bus.
"Hey, Jo, wake up, we're here," Pacey nudges Joey until she wakes up, looking around confused.
"Oh...yeah, camp. I forgot. I thought it was some kind of nightmare or something," she replies, sitting up.
"Oh, it'll be a nightmare I'm sure. The worst part is, we're going to be awake for the whole thing," Jack adds, grabbing his bag from the overhead compartment.
"Let the festivities begin!" Pacey announces, as he grabs his bag and walks off of the bus.
"Could you be any more of a dork?" Abby asks, walking down the aisle.
"Abby, I'm sure everyone agrees with me when I say 'shut up'," Joey says, glaring at her, then following Pacey. The others follow Joey and soon everyone is in front of the cabin as Maureen ordered.
"Okay, Maureen, this is a camp, right? So, where are all the campers?" Pacey asks, looking around.
"Good question, Pacey, is it?" Maureen replies, as Pacey nods. "The campers arrive tomorrow, which means you all have twenty four hours to get your cabins ready and approved by me. Now, let me tell you your cabin assignments so you all can go get started."
In the end, Jen and Andie were assigned a cabin of thirteen year old girls together, Dawson and Jack were assigned to the eleven year old boys, Abby and a girl named Charlotte were assigned to the twelve year old girls, and Joey and Pacey were stuck together with the thirteen year old boys.
"Now as for the rules, we already covered the no profanity rule. There is also no drinking, no smoking, no sex, no inappropriate clothing, and no leaving your cabins after curfew. Your curfew is set for nine o'clock, but you kids will have an hour before that where you are free to roam around to other cabins and say hi to each other. Breakfast is at eight in the morning, lunch is at noon, and dinner is at seven. I expect all of your cabins to sit together, and behave. I will come around to all of your cabins separately and give you packets of more rules and regulations, but the main rules I just told you. Now, you all have your room assignments, get to it!"
"Wait, so we have to like, clean the cabin before our kids get here?" Abby asks with disgust.
"Yes, Abby," her co-counselor answers, with a roll of her eyes. "And if I so much as think you're slacking I'll go find Maureen."
"Oh god, they stuck me with a narc, great."
Joey watches Abby and her roommate as she walks with Pacey to her own cabin. "I feel sorry for that poor girl," she says, pulling her suitcase behind her.
"Yeah, no kidding," Pacey replies, as he walks up the stairs to the cabin. He opens the door and looks inside, raising an eyebrow. The place was a wreck, the bunks were filled with cobwebs, the floor had a thick layer of dirt and the screens had so many holes there was really no point in them being there.
"Great, I get to do exactly what it is I was trying to escape for the summer," Joey complains, and sits on a bed. As she sits, a cloud of dust rises from the mattress. "Okay, that's just wretched."
"Come on Jo, it's not that bad. Would you rather be stuck with a crying nephew all summer? No, I think not. Now grab a broom and start sweeping," Pacey demands.
Joey rolls her eyes and sarcastically salutes to Pacey as she grabs the broom from him and stands.
A few hours later, Joey and Pacey finished cleaning and setting up everybody's bunks. With a sigh of relief, Pacey fell back onto his bed.
"Finally!" He says, closing his eyes.
"Yeah, tell me about it. The best part is, by the end of tomorrow this place is going to be a pigsty again with ten thirteen year old boys living here," Joey groans, leaning back against a wall.
"That reminds me, did you want me to help you put up a curtain around your bed or something? I mean if I when I was thirteen I would have taken every chance I could get to see my hot 17 year old counselor naked," Pacey says, grinning.
"You were a very deluded thirteen year old, you know that? Then you always did have a thing for older women, huh Pace?" Joey smirks. "I don't think a curtain is necessary. If any of those little twerps tries anything I'll throw them in the lake. That includes you, too."
"Moi? Trust me, if I wanted to see a naked lady I have a years worth of Playboy in my suitcase to look at," Pacey replies, just as the lunch bell rings.
Since there were no campers there yet, all the counselors were allowed to sit together. Joey, Pacey, Dawson, Jack, Jen and Andie all sat at one table while the rest of the staff was scattered throughout the lunchroom.
"So how do you guys like it so far?" Andie asks everyone.
"Well, the campers aren't here yet, so it's great!" Pacey says, pushing his food around the tray with his fork. "What is this crap, they don't even have food this bad at school!"
"Tuna Surprise," Dawson answers, grimly. "I bet the surprise is that there's absolutely no tuna in here."
Jen looks around and spots Abby's co-counselor, Charlotte, but no sign of Abby. "I wonder where Satan is?"
"Maybe she went back down to the depths of hell where she belongs," Andie mutters.
"Or..." Pacey adds, just as Abby enters with the football player from the bus ride. "Maybe she was rolling around in the woods with Mr. Quarterback...she's definitely got sex hair."
"Maybe they rolled over some poison ivy during their festivities," Joey retorts.
They watch as Maureen walks over to Abby and scolds her for being late.
