Well this is it guys, the end of another tale. I've stopped writing New Soulmates now, I've tried but the inspiration has well and truly left me! I'm going to wrap this one up too and try another direction.

Thank you all so much for giving me support and feedback. It's great to know what my strengths as a writer are (as well as my weakness), so thank you once again.

Epilogue

The sun shone brightly down on the assembled group, sitting patiently on the chairs assembled outside the Potter B&B on this impossibly perfect day. The sound of the creek filled the air, the water creating an almost quiet hush. It had been 6 months since the surprising and joyous events of Christmas, where the Potter and Leery families were connected in a way they could never undo. The two little souls that came into the world that snowy Christmas day had brought them all such joy it was hard to quantify. Belle was loud, playful and cheeky, while Dylan sleep peacefully, was careful and considered and always smiling. Dawson and Joey couldn't believe the two children were twins but they could see elements of themselves shinning thru their children's eyes.

Living in the tiny apartment became too much for the four of them and so they moved into a bigger one two blocks away. But they couldn't settle, finding it impossible to imagine a happy life for their children enclosed in the apartment with occasional trips to the park. So on a trip to Capeside in March, Dawson saw a home for sale on the creek. Not two far from his own house, he impulsively bought it. The impulse turned out to be the best thing for everyone. Joey finally started work on her book, A Mother's Wish, all about Jen and Amy. Her own experience of motherhood had given her the insight she needed to finish it, that and the knowledge that she owed it to her best friend to tell her tale. It was difficult to try to find the time, with two small babies and a new home to settle into, but with both Gail and Bessie clambering to spend time with the babies she had the opportunity.

Dawson on the other hand was still on hiatus from his project. It had started to see redundant to him anyway. It was always a means to helping his mourning but he wanted it to be so much more. When Spielberg had heard about the story of Jen's pregnancy and of his own experience, he wanted to incorporate into the script. So Dawson was in re-writing hell. Not that he minded, it gave him more time for his children and Joey. Plus being back in Capeside meant they could spend more time with the friends they had come to treasure so much. Doug and Jack were close by, as well as Pacey and Andie.

A hush fell over the crowd as the two suited young men made their way to the front, both of them looking stunning in their matching morning suits. They shared a secret smile, acknowledging the journey both of them had made to get to this point.

The music slowly started to play, gentle orchestral music that carried itself over the crowd and the creek. The two friends looked on as the women they loved made their way down the makeshift aisle, one as a bride and one as a bridesmaid. Joey winked at Dawson as they reached the alter, taking his hand. Dawson smiled at his soul mate, wondering how he could have been so blind for so long.

'Can everyone be seated please?' the minister said. He looked over the two young people, with their lives in front of them and secretly hoped for the best for them.

'Today, we are here to bless the marriage of Pacey and Andie Witter.' he begun. From the congregation a large sob was heard from Jack, holding a hanky to his already red eyes. Doug tutted and held on tightly to Amy who was squirming in her pretty white dress. Sat next to them were Gail and Bessie, proudly holding their newest family members. Joey had dressed them in matching outfits for the day. As secretly as both Gail and Bessie hoped it would be Joey and Dawson they were watching getting married, they knew it was not going to happen any time soon. The two of them were determined not to get married for the sake of marriage, rather to do it when they both knew it was the right time. Gail continually argued that having two children was usually the right time to get married, but nothing could sway the young couple.

Dawson looked around at all the familiar faces in the crowd of people and was touched to see all the people he loved in one place. To think that things could have been so different in so many ways. He held onto Joey's hand tightly, thanking whoever it was who controlled these kinds of things for his second chance.

'May your marriage be long and loving, never forgetting the vows you have made here today. I now pronounce you husband and wife...again,' the minister said.

Pacey reached over the Andie and took her delicate face in his hands.

'I love you MacPhee,'

'I love you too Witter,'

A loud round of applause rang through the air when they finally kissed. Joey gave Dawson a quick peck on the check and whispered in his ear.

'I love you Dawson,'

Dawson looked over at his soul mate, how luminous she looked in the spring sunshine. She smiled her half smile and tucked her hair behind her ears, giggling at herself slightly. Dawson couldn't help but giggle too.

'I love you too Joey,'
