Okay, so this is it for As Real As It Gets. I'm glad that this story was liked. I've been told, on numerous occasions, to extend this story or make a sequel. If a lot of people want a sequel, then I guess I must write one. As of right now, there is no sequel in the works. But if you guys want one, just tell me and I can write one. I want to thank everyone for reading this story and I want to thank everyone who reviewed. The reviews make me feel so good, even if they are just two or three words. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the last chapter of As Real As It Gets. Here it is…

One month later…

Joey was lying in bed. Her hair was fanned out on the pillow and she was lying on her stomach. She was content where she was. Sure, she needed to get use to living in Pacey's house but she wouldn't have it any other way. Besides, most of the things in the house were her things.

The sheets had begun to get cold from the lack of the other body that usually took up a side of the bed. Joey felt this coldness and her eyes began to open. She looked at the clock. 7:35. Pacey would already be getting ready for work. She would be alone for another hour because she didn't start work until nine. The bed sank in a little. She smiled at this. This meant only one thing. Pacey sat up in the bed, trying his best to not get his clothes too wrinkled, and placed soft kisses on her back. When she started to giggle, Pacey smiled.

"I have to get going, Jo," Pacey said as she sat up.

"Is it time already?" Joey said running a hand through her hair.

Pacey only nodded before getting out of the bed.

Joey stood up, stretched out her arms, and walked into the kitchen after Pacey.

Joey walked up to Pacey who was standing by the counter, getting all of his things for work ready, and kissed him.

"I don't want you to go," she said with a little whine in her voice.

Pacey smiled and cupped her face before kissing her. "I don't want to go."

Joey bit her lip before a small smirk played on her face. She kissed him again but longer then she looked into his eyes. "Then why go, Pacey? I could take off as well and we could just be together. We could go out to breakfast and spend the day downtown," she said before taking his shirt in her fingers and begin to undo the buttons. "Or we could stay at home and make love all day."

Pacey felt the heat rise up in him as she undid every button. He put his hands on hers to stop her. "Jo, although I want to take you up on that offer right now, I need to get to work."

Joey moved back a little and just looked at him. "I don't get it, Pacey. Here I am, offering to have sex with you all day long, and all you can say is that you need to get to work."

"Joey…" he said as he began to button up his shirt again. He didn't want or need a fight right now.

Joey shook her head in anger. "No, don't Joey me. All this month you have been working over time. Your real shift doesn't even begin until ten and yet, everyday, you go to work at eight and come home after midnight. I never get to see you. It's like you would rather be at work then be with me, Pacey."

Pacey frowned. That was the last thing for his reason to be at work all the time. He wrapped his arms around her and looked into her deep brown eyes. "Joey, don't say that. I love you. I want to spend every day with you. You know if I could, I would take off today and stay home with you but I can't."

Joey frowned back, still looking in his eyes. "Why, Pacey? You keep saying that you don't want to work all the time but you have to and still you haven't told me why. I know it's not for money because we make more than enough together. I just want to know why you are never home."

Pacey didn't know what to say. He couldn't tell her the truth. "I…um…I…They…They need a lot of help right now at the restaurant. It gets pretty busy this time of year."

Joey noticed he quickly dropped their gaze. He only did that when he was lying. Joey moved away from him and crossed her arms. "You should get going then. You don't want to be late. Love you."

Pacey sighed. "I love you too. I'll see you when I get home," he said softly into her ear before kissing her on the cheek.

Joey watched as he left. She looked at the engagement ring on her left ring finger that she just got a few weeks ago and sighed. "So much for being truthful until the day we die," she said. Joey picked up the mail. Little did she know that MTV was calling them back.

XXX

Joey couldn't focus well all day. The time was moving so slow that day. All she wanted was to call Jen, who she made sure she talked to weekly, and get some clarity in her mind. Finally, after what seemed like a million hours, it was her lunch break.

"Hello?" Jen said answering the phone.

"Hey, Jen, it's Joey."

"Hey, Joey. How are you?"

"I'm okay. How are you?"

"I'm great."

"How are Drue and Amy?"

"They're doing well. Drue is his annoying yet loveable self and Amy, Amy is my baby."

"I hope I can get over there soon. I really miss everyone."

"I'm sure you'll get here soon. So, how are things with Pacey? Still all lovey- dovey from the engagement?"

"Um…yeah. Everything is fine with us. We are just…peachy."

"Are you sure everything is okay? You don't sound very happy."

"No, I am happy, I am. I just…I never get to see him. Pacey has been going into work at eight in the morning and coming home after midnight everyday. He says the restaurant is busy so he needs to work all of this overtime but…"

"But what?"

"But how much of that time is really spent at work?"

"Joey, he's going to work. There is no where else he would be going."

"Jen…What if Pacey is cheating on me?"

"Can you really think that?"

"I don't know. He's just gone all the time…"

"Pacey would NEVER cheat on you. There's an explanation for him working so much. Just don't doubt your relationship."

"I don't doubt it. I don't think that Pacey is cheating on me because I know how much he loves me. I don't know what to do. I want to spend the rest of my life with this man but how much is he really keeping from me? And now MTV wants us to come back for a reunion special so that adds fuel to the fire. I'm going crazy."

"Everything will be okay, Joey."

"I hope so. I have to go but I'll call you soon, Jen. Bye."

"Okay. Don't worry so much. Bye."

Joey hung up the phone and went back to work.

It was twelve-thirty. Pacey unlocked the door quietly and went inside his house. He took off his shoes, hung up his coat and made his way to the bathroom without turning on a single light. He was a pro. Once in the bathroom, Pacey closed the door and turned on the light. He did what he needed to do and quietly opened the door before turning off the light. Joey was standing on the other side in her pajamas. Pacey sighed. He tried so hard not to wake her.

"I'm sorry, Baby, did I wake you?" he asked her.

Joey shook her head. "I was already up…Pace, I'm sorry about the way I acted this morning. I shouldn't have gotten mad at you."

"It's fine," he said.

Joey still looked down. "No, it was rude of me to…"

Pacey grabbed her chin so she would look at him. "Jo, it's okay. You didn't try and kill me so I'm not mad. Even then I don't think I could stay mad, okay?" he joked.

Joey nodded. "Okay," she said before kissing him.

The kiss heated up pretty quickly. Joey ran her fingers in his short hair. Pacey wrapped his arms around her and onto her back. He left her lips to trail kisses down her neck. Joey closed her eyes and felt the electricity run in her body. That was something that never changed over the years and Pacey was the only one who could make her feel that way.

"I love you, Pacey," she whispered as the stumbled back onto the bed.

The next morning…

Pacey knocked on the familiar door. A smiling redhead came to the door.

"Pacey. I thought you were supposed to be here later," she said.

"I know but I'm going out with Joey later. This was the only time I could see you."

"Does she know about it yet?" the redhead asked.

Pacey shook his head. "No, but I think she's figuring out that I don't spend all that time at work," he said before going in and closing the door.

Jack wiped is forehead. This was ridiculous. He had never worked so hard in his life. But he wasn't complaining. She was never mean, just wanted a lot of things. Jack happily got all the things she asked for; he was just getting tired from doing it all day. A pregnant woman on bed rest is hard to handle.

Jack laid his head on the counter as Dawson walked into the house with a bag.

"How is she?" Dawson asked taking out the fruit from the bag.

Jack looked up from the counter. "She's very demanding. I swear she asked for twenty items in the last two minutes."

Dawson laughed. "That's pregnant women for you."

Jack took a cherry and popped it into his mouth. "This is all your fault, Dawson."

"My fault?" Dawson said raising an eyebrow.

"You were the one who got Andie pregnant."

Dawson nodded. "Yeah, I guess you're right."

"Didn't you ever learn about abstinence?"

"I'm not a big advocate on no pre- marital sex."

"I hope you're an advocate on pre-marital babies."

Andie waddled into the room. "Dawson, you're back," she said giving him a kiss.

Dawson smiled and held her stomach. "Andie, you're supposed to be in bed."

"I've been there all day," Andie whined.

Dawson pushed her back out of the room. "Andie, I want you and my baby to be okay. Go back and lay down and I'll be in there in a second."

Andie rolled her eyes and grabbed the cherries before waddling back into the bedroom.

Jack laughed. "I feel so bad for Gale when we leave for New York."

Dawson ran a hand in his hair. "My poor Mother."

"You can't keep me in here," Audrey said crossing her arms.

A man with thick glasses and blonde hair shook his head. "Yes we can Audrey, and we will if you keep living like you are."

"It's not my fault my stupid Mother sent me here," she retorted.

The man sighed. "The first step is admitting you have a problem, Audrey."

Audrey laughed. "I don't have a problem."

"Audrey, you're drunk almost every night. You drink constantly until you pass out, when you came here you're blood alcohol level was six times the legal limit. You could have died, Audrey."

"I wasn't even that drunk," she stated. "Why do you keep saying my name with every sentence?"

"It helps to create a more intimate connection. This technique is proven effective in most rehabilitation centers."

Audrey rolled her eyes. "Yeah, well, it's stupid just like this place and just like you."

He began to write. "Hostility shows that I'm affecting you. That's good. Now if only you could be more open."

"I am open. I haven't run down anyone have I?"

"No, no you haven't. I hope it stays that way for the next few months."

Audrey shook her head. "I'm out of here by Thursday. I have a plan to New York that I have to be on Friday."

He took off his glasses and began to clean them. "Audrey, you will not be going to New York on Friday."

"What! Of course I'm going. It's a reunion for Real World Seattle! I won't stay!" she spat.

"I'm afraid you must. I can't let you leave until I'm sure that you've stopped drinking and can be okay on your own. MTV has already been notified that you will be absent," he said calmly.

Audrey leaned back in her chair. "This is Bullshit."

Joey tapped her fingers on the table. It was the first of two nights they would be spending in New York and she already couldn't sit still. Pacey put his hand over hers and squeezed it while giving her a smile.

"Are you nervous?" Pacey asked.

Joey took a breath and calmed down at his touch. "A little bit. We haven't seen them in almost six months."

"I know. Funny how time flies sometimes."

Joey smiled. "I love you, Pacey."

"I love you too, Joey," he said before kissing her passionately.

They were so wrapped up in each other that they didn't even notice Dawson and jack sit on the other side of the table.

"I guess you two are back together," Jack said with a laugh.

Pacey and Joey broke apart, only to wipe at their lips in embarrassment.

"Hell, I didn't even know they broke up until the last episode aired last week," Dawson said honestly.

Pacey grinned wide and out his arm around Joey. "I couldn't stay away from her," he said.

"I'm glad the long distance worked out for you," Dawson said.

Joey tucked some hair behind her ears. "Actually, I moved to Chicago. I was offered a job at the Chicago tribune right after the show so I took it. Pacey was just an added bonus."

"What a bonus I am," Pacey added.

Joey rolled her eyes. "He's never going to change."

"So you've been together all this time?" Jack asked.

"No, Pacey and I got together a few times but it was only about a month ago we really got back together. Now we're engaged," Joey said showing off her ring.

"How long have you been engaged?" Dawson asked curious about the short timeframe.

"Three weeks," Pacey said with a huge grin.

"Didn't wait very long," Jack said with a smirk. "Congrats, you two. You guys deserve all the happiness in the world."

Joey and Pacey just grinned. Pacey cleared his throat.

"What has been happening with you Jack?" Pacey asked.

Jack smiled wide. "Well, I moved up to Scuttinburgville about a month after the show ended. I bought myself a dog named Pooch and I finally put my teaching degree to use as a high school English teacher."

"I always thought you'd be a great Teacher. What about you Dawson?" Joey said.

"Ehh, nothing really changed," Dawson said. "I still have the same job, the same house and the same life."

Jack rolled his eyes. "Except for the fact that he got Andie Pregnant."

Joey bounced a little. "Oh, how far along is she?"

Dawson smiled. "A little under five months. We're going to have a Boy."

"That's great news, Man," Pacey said.

"Have you two heard about Audrey?" Jack asked.

Pacey and Joey shook their heads. They haven't even thought about Audrey.

"Well, it turns out that Audrey is in a rehab place for her drinking and she won't be coming to the reunion."

Joey smirked. "That made my day a lot better."

They all laughed and had a great night.

XXX

Joey took in a deep breath. Although it was only a reunion show, she was still nervous. This program was going to be recorded and probably not edited before it was aired. She really hoped that she wouldn't trip. Pacey came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Are you nervous?" he asked.

Joey smiled. "My stomach hurts a little but being in your arms is definitely helping."

Pacey smiled and began kissing her neck. "Good," he said between kisses.

Joey felt goose bumps rising with each kiss. "Pacey!" she giggled before turning her head so she could look at him.

"Yes?" he said innocently as he stopped.

"I love you," she said.

Pacey smirked. He never felt so great then when those three words escaped her lips. "I love you too," he whispered before kissing her lovingly.

Jack rolled his eyes as he approached the kissing couple. "Are you two ever going to change?"

The kiss ended and they held hands. "Not as long as Pacey is his cute self," Joey said.

Pacey shook his head. "So when I'm old and gray, you aren't going to want to make out with me anymore?" he laughed.

Joey kissed him softly. "I'll always want to make- out with you."

"One minute," a guy said with headphones on.

Dawson, Jack, Pacey and Joey all got quiet as they waited back stage.

Vanessa, host of TRL, took her place on the side of the main stage, waiting for her queue to start talking.

"In three two…" the man said before pointing.

Vanessa smiled as the audience cheered. "Hey, Welcome to Hangovers to heartaches: the Real World Seattle reunion special. Tonight is a very special night. We have four of the five cast members here tonight and willing to dish all the dirt from the show, as well as answer any questions. Let's bring out the cast!"

The four came out and waved at the cheering audience. Dawson and Jack sat on one couch while Joey and Pacey sat on the other holding hands.

"Welcome back Guys," Vanessa said. "I know that I'm supposed to ask the audience for questions but I noticed some hand holding going on. I know everyone is just as curious about that as me so, Joey, Pacey, are you guys back together or what?"

They smiled and Pacey held the mic to his mouth. "Yes," was all he said before the audience went wild. After a few good seconds, they died down.

"And…" Joey said. "We're getting married."

The crowd roared again. Vanessa got them quiet.

"Before we get to them, we are going to talk about Dawson. Dawson, I heard that you have a baby on the way."

Dawson picked up the mic and smiled. "Yeah, my girlfriend Andie and I are expecting our first child. She should be here in four moths or so."

"I know your daughter is going to be beautiful. Now, you were one of the more relaxed people on the show. But we can't forget the karaoke!" Vanessa said before the clip started.

Dawson shook his head and waited for his cue. Through the whole song he was in sync with the rapper. Dawson was actually good.

…You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub

Look mami I got the X if you into taking drugs

I'm into having sex, I ain't into making love

So come give me a hug if you into to getting rubbed…

The clip ended and everyone clapped.

"So," Vanessa began, "How was it rappin' to 50 cent?"

Dawson laughed. "It was…the most fun and embarrassing thing I have ever done in my life."

"Speaking of Karaoke, Jack, how was it doing Brittany Spears?" Vanessa asked.

Jack lifted the mic. "I think that singing that song should be outlawed."

Laughter was heard. More of the show went on about jack and Dawson. A good fifteen minutes or so later, it was the other's turn.

"Welcome back from the break," Vanessa said. "Now, without further ado, let's talk about Joey and Pacey."

The audience erupted. They were the favorite couple after all.

"So, let's see some scenes from Joey and Pacey's time on the show…"

"Pacey...Pacey...PACEY!" Jack screamed the last one.

Pacey heard his name and jumped. The knife he was holding slipped from his grip and slid down his hand causing a huge slit on his hand. The knife hit the floor with blood on it. Pacey moved his foot so it wouldn't get stabbed.

"Shit!" Pacey said.

Both Dawson and Jack were frozen in place. Blood was dripping on the floor. Pacey tired to put pressure on his cut but his finger pressed too hard and a surge of pain ran down his arm. Joey walked in and didn't notice Pacey at first. Joey looked up and she noticed the blood running down Pacey's hand and falling into the small pool already formed.

"O my god! Pacey what happened?" Joey asked.

"Ah, the knife slipped and sliced my hand." Pacey said trying to act cool.

"Put your hand over the sink and hold it. Jack, go get a small towel!" Joey said as she helped Pacey to the sink.

Jack came back a few seconds later with a towel. Joey grabbed it and quickly wrapped it around Pacey's hand. She held it tight to apply pressure to the wound. All of them watched as Joey held the towel so tight that Pacey winced every few seconds.

"Hold it tight. I'll be right back." Joey said to Pacey.

Joey got the first aid kit and took out gauze and medical tape. Joey opened the antiseptic wash and unwrapped Pacey's hand. The slit was deep but not deep enough for stitches. Joey grabbed Pacey hand and poured a small amount of wash on his hand. Pacey jerked.

"Ow! That hurts Joey!" Pacey said.

"You big baby. It's a little wash." Joey poured a little more then put the bottle down.

"See easy Witter. I have to wrap your hand up now." Joey gently placed the gauze over his cut and wrapped it in medical tape so it stuck tightly. When Joey was done she smiled at Pacey.

"All done." Joey said before kissing Pacey's hand.

Joey and Pacey just looked at each other and smiled.

…

Pacey leaned in towards Joey and kissed her. Pacey separated them then stood up and faced her.

"Joey I'm sorry about that. I just needed to get that off my chest. I wanted to do that for so long and I just couldn't help myself. Now it's done so I won't try it again." Pacey started to rub his hair. He turned around.

Joey stood up and tapped Pacey on the shoulder. Pacey turned around. Before Pacey could even blink Joey was kissing him! Pacey closed his eyes and just gave in. he wrapped his arms around Joey. Joey enclosed his neck so she could get a better kiss. It felt so right to them. It seemed like heaven on earth, even if it was for a few seconds. Slowly, their lips moved away from each other and Pacey opened his eyes. He watched Joey flutter hers opened. They were still holding onto each other.

"I wanted to kiss you for a long time." Joey whispered.

"So did I." Pacey whispered back.

…

Joey picked up her face wash and put some on. She continued to wash her face when she heard foot steps behind her. Joey rinsed and dried off her face then looked into the mirror to see who was behind her. It was Pacey. Joey continued to wipe off her face.

"Morning Pace." Joey said putting down the towel.

Pacey walked up next to Joey at the sink. "Morning Jo. I think we should talk."

"About what Pacey?" Joey said combing her hair for a ponytail.

"O, I don't know. Maybe the confusing situation that we took part in yesterday. You know the one after the music but before the running away you did." Pacey said leaning against the wall.

Joey tied up her hair and looked at Pacey then back to the mirror. "I have no idea what you are talking about Pacey."

"O come on, do I have to spell it out for you? Fine. The kiss Joey! Actually, the kisses. I kissed you then..."

"O yes, the kiss. I remember now. I wouldn't call it a confusing situation though. It was no big deal." Joey combed the hanging part of her hair and almost was out of the clear when Pacey peeped.

"Joey!"

Joey stopped and worded a swear word then turned around. "Yes Pacey."

Pacey walked a little closer but still kept some distance. "How can you say that us kissing is not confusing?"

"Simply, because it's not. So we kissed...big deal. People kiss all the time. We just did it before. Nothing is going to change because of it." Joey quickly turned away and walked down the hall.

…

"Pace."

Pacey looked up at the sound of Joey's voice. He put back down his head. "Go away Joey. I don't want to talk to you now."

Joey slowly walked over to Pacey and sat next to him on the bed. Joey didn't have on her dress but she now had on a pair of pj shorts and a white tee.

"Pace I...I need to talk to you."

Pacey didn't say anything but looked at Joey. Joey frowned.

"I know you heard what Zach said and I'm sorry you had to hear that. I was surprised that he told me that he loved me. Zach wants to get back together."

"I kind of guessed that Joey." Pacey said sitting up straight and facing her.

"Pace, Zach was right. I am in love and I had to tell you."

Pacey felt as though his heart was ripped out and stomped on by elephants. It seemed that it didn't even faze Joey.

"Why do you have to beat a dead dog down? Why are you telling me that you're in love with him? Do you enjoy hurting me?" Pacey said.

"I never want to hurt you Pacey. I needed to tell you because you are the wonderful man I love. I don't know why I was so afraid to tell you how I felt. I've loved you for a long time. When you kissed me tonight I didn't want to stop but I just...did. When we danced I loved holding you close and I loved being in your arms." Joey smiled.

Pacey looked at Joey as though she was joking but when she didn't laugh he smiled back. Pacey leaned forward and kissed Joey. Joey stood on her knees like Pacey and encircled his neck with her arms and pulled him closer. Pacey wrapped his arms around Joey's waist. They kissed for a few seconds then Pacey pulled away.

"Wait, wait." Pacey whispered.

"What's wrong?" Joey asked licking her lips.

"I want you to tell me again. Say that you love me."

"I love you Pacey Witter."

"I wanted that for so long. I love you Josephine."

Pacey and Joey kissed again them Joey spoke with their lips centimeters apart and they were looking in each others eyes. "Don't call me Josephine, Witter."

"Okay Potter." Pacey smiled then kissed her again.

…

Joey rolled her eyes. "Okay Mr. Einstein. How can you say what we are doing now is not like rabbits?"

"Easily. That sentence "going at it like rabbits" always refers to sex. You don't want to have sex so then we aren't going at it. We are just at foreplay."

Joey stood up and looked at Pacey. "So you're saying it's my fault that we aren't having sex?"

Pacey rested his back on the couch and looked at Joey. 'I'm not saying it's entirely your fault that we haven't done it yet."

"It's partially my fault then?" Joey raised her voice.

"Yes. You can't not take any blame for it." Pacey had a cool tone for his voice.

"Well then it's your fault too." Joey smiled at her comment.

Pacey clenched his fists and decided to humor her. "Okay then, how is it my fault that we aren't sleeping together?"

Joey's eyes got wide and they shifted. She stumbled out the words. "Because...you don't...you said you don't want to have sex yet."

Pacey stood up only a few inches from Joey. "I never said that!"

Joey's mouth formed an O then she stomped her foot and talked through her teeth. "Yes you did Pacey don't lie! Last week Thursday you stopped us that time and told me we shouldn't do it."

Pacey shook his head and added his hands. "No no no no no no, I said that we shouldn't do it because it wasn't a good time but I NEVER said I didn't want to. I want to have sex with you Joey. It's YOU who is stopping us from doing so. You need to realize that if we don't have sex, it's not because I didn't want to."

"Fine! Maybe I AM the one who's not letting us get to the next level but did it ever occur to you that I might be scared?" Joey walked behind the couch.

Pacey started laughing and watched Joey's reaction. "You can't be serious Joey. What are you scared of? We have had sex before so you can't be afraid of that."

"Don't pretend like you care Pacey. All you want is sex! It doesn't matter who it comes from. If you're so eager to have sex go out and bone some whore or better yet, sleep with Audrey! We all know she wants you." Joey stomped into the kitchen to go to her room.

Pacey jumped over the couch and grabbed Joey's arm. He made her look into his eyes. Pacey talked with a gentle voice but it still had some force in it. "I do care about how you feel Joey and you know I do so you can't stand here and say I don't. I want you and only you so I'm not going to go out and screw some girl or Audrey. Now can you tell me what is so freighting about me?"

Joey scrambled away from Pacey and started to cry. "Why can't you understand Pacey? I'm not afraid of you."

Pacey stepped closer but she backed away. "Okay, then tell me what is scaring you."

"Sex! Just sex in general. The last time we had sex was a few days before you broke up with me in college so we probably changed. It took me three years to sleep with someone else and when I did he dumped me the next day because he didn't like it. I don't have all this experience that you have and I..." Joey started to cry more and fell to the floor and crouched into a ball against the wall.

Pacey got on the floor with Joey and wrapped his arms around her. Joey let go of her legs then wrapped her arms around Pacey and cried on him.

"Joey I would never hurt you like that. I love you so much that even if you were horrible I would love it. Look at me Joey," Joey turned her tear stained face up to face Pacey. "I don't have all this experience you think I do. I'm not going to judge you. I even bet that you're not as bad as you think." Pacey wiped away a tear from her cheek.

"Yes I am Pacey. I was told that I was when he was looking me in the eyes." Joey leaned her head against the wall and felt more tears slide down from her eyes down to her leg.

"I don't believe that Joey. When we had sex before, you were amazing even though you never had sex before me. How could you be bad?" Pacey wiped away the loose tears and smiled.

"Pace, we were both virgins when we started having sex so you had nothing to compare me to."

"I do now and still I must say you were the best I ever had. No girl can compare in any way: sex, beauty, love, brains, anything! You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. Maybe that ass of a guy doesn't like amazing women. You are the sweetest girl I know, well, when you want to be you are."

The Clip ended. As usual, the crowd cheered and eventually died down. Some questions were asked and then the last clip for the day was shown. It was the notorious break up scene from the last episode. A Teenage girl stood up and went to a mic for the last question.

"Okay, this is for Pacey. How did you feel when you and Joey broke up and why didn't you go after her?"

Pacey took a deep breath and held the mic to his mouth. "I don't know why I didn't go after her. I was an idiot then, I guess. When Joey and I broke up that time, I was absolutely crushed. I loved her with every part of me and boom, she was gone. I have never been so depressed in my life. I'm not going to lie, I did cry that day. I'm glad that I never have to go through that again," he said before kissing Joey.

Vanessa spoke. "Any last remarks from the cast?" she asked.

Joey, Jack and Dawson shook their heads. Pacey smiled. "Actually yeah," Pacey said.

Pacey held Joey's hand in his and smiled at her. "Jo, I don't know if you remember the old house with the wrap around porch next to your house back in Capeside. I remember we were always in there during High School. I know how much you miss Capeside so I've been working all this overtime because I bought that house and I rebuilt it. I bought it for you and eventually our family as well. I want to spend the rest of my life with you and I hope that this house can be where we spend it."

Joey let some tears fall. She could never have asked for a better man. And to think, she almost thought that Pacey could have been cheating on her. Joey wrapped her arms around him tightly and kissed him passionately.

The crowd kept cheering but Vanessa began to talk. "So there you have it. I hoped you enjoyed Hangovers to Heartaches: The Real World Reunion Special. Have a good Night!"

The cameras turned off.

Joey put the last bag in the car. Pacey put down the last big box and closed the trunk.

"Ready?" he asked.

Joey smiled and kissed him. "More than anything."

They got in the car and drove off to spend the rest of their lives together in Capeside.

THE END
