Joey hugged Audrey at the airport gate, it had been almost a week - five
days to be exact - since the suicide attempt. She had stayed in hospital
for a few days and then came back to the dorm, begging and pleading with
her mother not to take her home. She had lost the fight in the end; her
mother wanted her back home where she could keep a closer eye on her.
Audrey hated it, it meant her dropping out of college and moving back home
again. Joey pulled away from the hug and looked at her friend who sighed
heavily and looked around. "He's not coming, he's not going to say
goodbye," Audrey said sadly as she darted her eyes around the airport.
"He'll be here, he promised he would, he will be here," Joey told her. "Look Audrey... just look after yourself okay? Call me," she advised her, before pulling her into a hug. She would miss Audrey; she couldn't see her ever coming back when there was nothing to come back for.
"You better look after him for me, I mean I still hate him a little and I'm sure he isn't too fond of me either but... just make sure he's okay. Pacey is a big rogue with a breakable heart," Audrey told her, hugging her friend tightly. She hated to say goodbye like this, especially when she had been so out of order lately. Joey saw Pacey over Audrey's shoulder as he ran towards them. He had promised he was going to be there and he was. She pulled away from her friends' embrace as he ran up to them exhausted, leaning on his knees and trying to catch his breath.
"Pacey! You came!" Audrey said with a smile, watching him as he tried hard to get his breath back in his chest where it belonged. He stood up to his full height and hugged her tightly, still trying to breathe. "You still can't breathe can you?" Audrey asked him slightly amused as she hugged herself to him, hearing his shallow breaths.
"Nope," Pacey told her, finally getting his breath. "Sorry I'm late," he told her, hugging her. It was nice to be able to say goodbye with good words and good feelings rather than the more hostile feelings from weeks before.
"It's okay, you're here now, god I'm so glad you're here. I didn't want to go without saying some things to you," Audrey told him, pulling him by the hand away from Joey. "Look I just want to apologize for the way I treated you I mean you're not negligent at all..." Audrey said, trying to apologize. She had said some things when she had been drunk that had been very harsh, even under the circumstances.
"No Audrey if anyone treat anyone badly it was me, you don't need to apologize," Pacey said shaking his head at her comments. As far as he was concerned he had treat her badly.
"No Pacey hear me out. You are the only man I have ever dated apart from that certain famous person we don't mention, who treated me with any respect at all. I should have understood how important the job was to you but I didn't and I should never have let the drink control me and scare you the way I did. And I didn't want to leave without telling you how much I appreciate you saving my life. You saved my life Pacey, if it wasn't for you I don't think I would have been here right now. I owe it to you, I owe you my life," Audrey told him tearfully, letting the droplets run down her cheeks as she pulled him into her embrace.
"Audrey... There's really no need to say those things; they don't need to be said. However, you have to promise me that you will call me and let me know what's going on with you. We were friends before we got together and I would like to think I can continue my reputation and be friends again," Pacey told her, glancing at Joey over her shoulder as she talked on her cell phone. " I like to think of myself as a serial-befriender. I, Pacey Witter, friend to women, bad-ass stud and man about town, never break a relationship badly. Andie and I are still friends, Me and Joey are still friends and I like to think that you and I could be friends again too,"
"I would love that Pacey. But promise me one thing will ya?" Audrey asked him pulling away from him and looking into his eyes. "Don't let the one that got away get away from you this time," she told him, looking down at the ground then back to his deep blues.
"What do you mean?" Pacey asked confused. Audrey couldn't possibly know how he felt about Joey.
"Come on Pacey it's obvious that you can't sustain an adult relationship because of it. You still love her and she still loves you, she may not know it and she may use strange reasoning to distance herself from it. But you two are the golden couple, the Mulder and Scully, the Ross and Rachel, the Louis Lane and Clark Kent, the new Joey and Dawson. I was crazy to think that you would ever love me the way that you loved her. Could you have ever loved me that way?" Audrey asked him. She really didn't want to know the answer but it was important to know.
"No, I don't think I could," Pacey told her sadly, looking at her sadness.
"Good-bye Pacey, if I don't see you again have a nice life," She told him pulling him close to her and kissing his cheek, holding onto his shoulders for a moment too long. She wiped the tears from her hot eyes before he could see them and walked away.
"Audrey!" Pacey shouted grabbing her wrist to stop her from walking away. "I did love you y'know. But somewhere between LA and Boston it just... fizzled," He told her, watching her eyes as tears fell from them.
"That means a lot to me Pacey," She told returning to him for a final embrace. " Once upon a time you did make me happy and even when I stop loving you, if I ever stop loving you and my heart is healed as much as it can be I'll always remember you. I'll always remember you as the one that I let slip away," She whispered tearfully in his ear. She let her hand leave his and walked through the gate without looking back. Joey walked up to him slowly and placed an arm on his shoulder.
"Hey," She said, watching him turn around to face her. "Hug?" She requested. Pacey spread his arms out wide and brought her body close to his tightly, rocking with her as she cried on his chest. "I miss her Pacey, she's gone and I don't think she'll ever come back," she cried to him, feeling the movement of his hands as he rubbed her back.
"She'll be back, Audrey Liddell will be back with vengeance. She will hear some roaring gossip and wont be able to resist the urge to come and butt her nose into our business," Pacey told her, resting his cheek against hers. He felt the moistness as her salty tears wet his skin and soaked into him.
"I certainly hope so," Joey said, unable to tear herself away from his warm embrace.
"Can I drop you off anywhere on my way back to work?" Pacey asked her, pulling away and looking down at her, sweeping the hair that rested in her face.
"Well actually you could drop me..." Joey said, catching herself before she could finish the sentence and shaking her head. "Y'know what I'm okay," she said, pulling away from him nervously and walking ahead of him.
"Are you alright? You've gone strange. Well stranger than usual," Pacey said catching up with her and walking beside her. Her behavior had gone strange suddenly and something was up.
"I... I need to go to see Eddie, he's leaving tomorrow morning and I still have some of his stuff he wants back, a few CD's and stuff that I have to give him," Joey told him. She didn't want him to drive her; she knew how much he hated Eddie.
"Well I'll drive you, I think I just about have time," Pacey told her, putting his arm around her and walking with her down the corridor. "Oh hey what are you doing this weekend, I mean I know you're not working all weekend because Emma complained she's working all your shifts so what are you doing?" Pacey asked her. He was planning a little trip and she was coming with him, she didn't know it yet but she was coming with him.
"Studying, do not try and stop me because I am studying," she told him sternly. Knowing Pacey, he had some crazy idea up his sleeve, which would evidently stop her from studying.
"Well first thing is that it is my sisters birthday tomorrow and she is having a party, courtesy of her rich boyfriend, at the yacht club. Now I need a date, a date being categorized as a girl to put on my arm to show my parents that I am not completely incapable of keeping a woman. And second of all its going to snow and we can throw snowballs at Douggie's car and annoy him like we used to when we were kids. It will be fun, it will keep our minds off Audrey and I have already lined Lindley up to come with us but she refuses to be called my date so she wont come to the party. So are you going to come?" Pacey asked her hopefully.
"No," Joey told him sternly. She was not going to miss the opportunity to study for her very important test just to go and play snow fights with him.
"Why? Give me five good reasons why not," Pacey ordered her walking through the airport with her, watching her as she thought about it.
"Okay I have to study... I'm tired... I don't want to get a cold... I have nothing to wear and frankly I'm a little offended you asked Jen before me," Joey told him walking ahead of him.
"You wanted me to ask you first?" Pacey asked her a little bit surprised.
"Well no... yes... No I don't know I just don't want to go okay. I will not be the floozy you drape over your arm. I refuse," Joey said, crossing her arms over her chest and walking in front of him. She couldn't believe he would ask Jen before he would ask her.
"Well I asked Jen because you needed space, you said that. You wanted to see other men and..." Pacey tried to explain as he followed her, he stopped when she turned around suddenly.
"I did not say I wanted to see other men Pacey I said that I wanted to make sure. I do not want other men but I need to make sure, I was wrong about Dawson, I could be wrong about you," Joey told him before turning around and walking again.
"You were fifteen Joey, that's different, we're older now, I'm twenty for gods sake," He told her following her quickly. "Look, all I'm asking you to do is come to a party, I'm not asking you to marry me, I'm not asking you to date me, sleep with me or even kiss me. You want to see other men I told you I was fine with it but all I'm asking for is one evening of your completely platonic company in our hometown where you can still study. One night, a few hours is all I'm asking of you," Pacey told her, turning her to face him. She looked at him and out her hand on her forehead taking a deep breath and giving in.
"Fine! But you keep your hand away from my ass, you keep your lips away from my lips, we do not talk about the whole friends or lovers argument/saga and you let me study. Deal?" She asked him, offering her hand to him in a business-like pose.
"Deal, hand will stay away from ass, lips will stay away from face and the whole other man saga is on the back burner if you come," Pacey said taking her hand and shaking it before continuing to walk. "So I will pick you up at your dorm at nine am. Okay?" Pacey asked her and she nodded. "Good," Pacey said walking beside her. She was a very confusing woman, she didn't even say what she meant, she never made any sense, and she was more than high maintenance.
Joey stood at Eddie's door and rose her hand to the wood; she stood still for a moment before knocking three times confidently. She hadn't seen Eddie since that night in the bar and she had no desire to see him for very long. Pacey had dropped her off a few minutes ago outside, he hadn't been keen on her seeing him in this neighborhood, it was not a very good neighborhood, and she hated coming to it. She waited a while until he answered the door, smiling and leaning against the doorframe. "I brought you some things over that belong to you," Joey said handing him the box she had been carrying. There wasn't much in the box, just a few CD's, and a sweatshirt. Once she had handed the box over to him she turned and began to walk away.
"Joey wait!" He shouted, walking after her and grabbing her arms that she took away from his grasp immediately.
"What," Joey questioned him. She didn't want to have to be there any longer than completely necessary, she hated the neighborhood, she hated his apartment, and right at that moment, she hated him.
"Would you come in for a minute?" He asked her, desperately wanting her inside so they could talk. Hey eyes told him a firm no, he could tell she had no desire to see him for very long. " I have a few of your things and I would really like to say some things that I think I need to say," He told her. She rolled her eyes and looked around, it killed her to say yes because she didn't want to but she needed a drink and she needed to use his bathroom.
"Fine but only because I'm thirsty I need the bathroom and you owe me several apologies," Joey told him, crossing her arms over her chest and walking into his apartment. He followed her and closed the door, clearing a seat for her. The apartment was covered with boxes, he was definitely moving, and partly because he wanted to move back to Worchester and partly because he hadn't paid the rent and he had no option. He was actually happy to go, the cockroach infestation was getting him down and wasn't worth what he paid for it.
"I'll get you a drink, you know where the bathroom is," He said, watching her as she left the room and walked into the bathroom. He took a bottle of wine out of the cupboard, he had kept it for quite a while, he had gotten it for his birthday, and there was no point in wasting it. He knew she loosened up a little when she had a drink or two and would make it easier for him to explain some things. He poured the wine into two glasses and carried them to the couch as he heard the toilet flush. He moved the contents of his coffee table to another chair and put the glasses down, sitting on the couch as she walked out the bathroom. "Sit," he told her, but she shook her head. She stood in the living room with her arms folded protectively, acting as a barrier, over her chest. "Please?" He asked her.
"Okay," Joey agreed quietly. She walked over to the couch and sat down beside him, as far away as she could sit without being on a different chair. He gave her a glass of wine and she put it on the table, refusing to drink it. "I'm not drinking that, I want water," she told him stubbornly.
"Come on don't be petty," he told her. It was less of a statement that a way of accusing her. She took the wine and drank it, holding it in her hand. "I just want to explain about me and Audrey and what happened," He started to explain but she cut him off.
"You don't need to explain anything, we're not dating and our little fling was over before it even began. However, what you do have to explain is why you were such a pig to Pacey. Y'know Pacey means a lot to me and to speak to him like that was wrong, just plain wrong," Joey told him. She almost exploded with her words as she spoke to him angrily.
"I'm sorry okay! He had what I wanted, what was I meant to do just let him have you without a fight?" He asked, shouting his words.
"What? So I'm some object now, something you fight over and win like a trophy. Well I don't like that! I am not some trophy and I know Pacey doesn't see me that way! And you have no rights to me anyway!" Joey shouted standing up and pointing at him with her finger. She couldn't believe that he was such a male chauvinist, he had led her to believe he was different but he wasn't.
"I didn't call you a trophy! Just sit down and listen to me will you and stop being so god damn touchy," Eddie said, pulling her back down. She wouldn't let herself be pulled down and stood back up again, putting her hands on her hips.
"Touchy! Touchy! You think I'm Touchy!" Joey shouted in disbelief. Touchy? She had a right to be touchy, she couldn't believe she ever dated him.
"Yes, Touchy! And Pure! And prudish! Little Miss perfect right? Never do anything wrong, never make a mistake never do anything less than pure!" He shouted back at her, standing up and walking closer top her.
"Me! I can do things much less than pure! I am not a prude!" She shouted at him. She wanted to do something, anything just to prove him wrong.
"You are such a prude. You never take a bet incase you lose and you're little miss perfect, would it kill you to do something wrong for once in your life!" he shouted at her.
"I'll show you wrong!" Joey screamed as she walked over to him and kissed his lips deeply. She knew it was wrong and that was why she was doin g it. She was regretting it and hating it, every little bit of it. She would just grin and bear it, one kiss couldn't do a lot of harm, and she was only doing it to prove him wrong.
TBC, not great, not fantastic but part eight will be better. Keep sending me feedback - remember that everything will be explained.
"He'll be here, he promised he would, he will be here," Joey told her. "Look Audrey... just look after yourself okay? Call me," she advised her, before pulling her into a hug. She would miss Audrey; she couldn't see her ever coming back when there was nothing to come back for.
