She leaned against a table that had been set up, from a distance, she got a glance of all her friends. They looked so incredibly happy. A small smile crept across her face. Audrey herself got a little surprise, Chris flew in to join her for the day. They all were laughing, strangely there was no awkwardness in the group. Joey realized it had been at least two years since all of them had been together.
She slowly glanced over the entire area. The tent had been lit with party lights strung along the sides, it looked nice as the sun faded. A small laugh escaped her as she looked over at Lily who was tugging at Dawson's hand. He spun her around to the music. Jen had arranged for some equipment from the station, and one of the interns DJ's happily volunteered to help with the entertainment. She sat starring at he banner that hung above the equipment. Watch out world here they come... Congrats Jen, Joey and Jack.
Today had been a day filed with commotion, from literally the moment she woke up. From this morning and Gail's surprise, to the announcement that Jen and David were going to make later on. Joey was lost in the memories of the day. The graduation was a bit longer than her own, she sat with all her friends watching the two people who had helped her get through this year. She decided that after graduation, she was going to head over to the paper, just to check the final print for the Sunday paper. She promised them all it wouldn't take long. She was a little taken back at first when she arrived. Sitting in her temporary office was Janet, sitting at the desk. She informed Joey that she was coming back a little earlier than she had originally thought. From that point Joey kind of faded out of the conversation.
As she starred at the surroundings, suddenly she feels someone pulling at her hand.
"Potter I believe, this would be our song." Said Pacey as he grinned at her. He grabbed her hand. And set one hand on her waist. He laughed as a look of clear bewilderment came across her face. "Potter, I took all those silly dance lessons too, I know you haven't forgotten."
"No, Pacey, I can't.... Pacey." She said, her voice lingering on the side of fearful.
"Potter, I won't take no for an answer." He said as he smoothly turned her. Within a few steps, they had fallen into step, both letting their feet take over.
"See Potter, now is this really all that bad." Pacey asked, making eye contact with her.
"Not until I trip over those two left feet you have Pacey." She teased, slowly easing into a nervous smile.
Pacey chuckled in reply, "Well I hope your ready for this then." He said as he elegantly spun her around. He could feel her tenseness disappear. Everyone had taken notice of the two dancing. They all noticed the smiles on their faces. As the song ended, a small crowd clapped, both Joey and Pacey blushed and took a bow.
"Thanks Pacey." She said as she hugged him. She then saw Jen and David head toward the deck, Jen signaled for the DJ to turn down the music.
The crowd quieted, everyone's attention went back to the happy couple standing in front of the small crowd.
"Hey everyone, first of all I want to thank everyone for coming here today. Jack, Joey, and myself are so incredibly lucky to have you people in our lives." Jen said proudly, looking over the crowd. David wrapped her arm around her side, and took a hold of her hand with his free hand. " Secondly, David and I have a little announcement to make." She stopped and looked lovingly in David's eyes.
"Last night I asked this lovely woman here to marry me, and she accepted." David spoke, he could see that Jen was getting choked up. The crowd clapped and cheered.
They stepped off the deck, where they were met by their families. David's parents had come to the evening's festivities, Jen's Grandmother was the first to embrace Jen as she stepped off the deck. Jen's mother, Helen had also come tonight. Jen tightly held on to his torso, only letting go to show off her stunning ring.
"Well, I guess my news isn't quite that big." Jack teased, knowing that it would provoke the important question.
"What news?" Joey asked surprised. He leaned over and whispered something into her ear, the look that shot across Joey's face was one of pure joy. She saw the Andie, Pacey, and Dawson looking at her, all wanting to know what it was. She proudly hugged him, then started pushing him up towards the deck, "Hold on, he'll tell you himself." Joey said to the others. They all laughed at her enthusiasm.
She pulled him on the deck, and held his hand. "Our Jack here also has some exciting news to share with us." She stated filled with pride.
"Um, first of all, I really am incredibly happy for Jen and David. But I guess that isn't why Joey pulled me up here. Yesterday morning I went over to the firm, just to check in. To make it quick, they offered me a position. Which I graciously accepted." He still was holding Joey's hand and pulled it closer. "I leave next week for Chicago, where I'll spend the next three months doing some extensive training." Jen jumped up on the deck and hugged then both. Jen grabbed Jack's other hand. "The only hard part will be that I don't have these to gorgeous woman with me for a while." The happiness brought such heartfelt emotion to the girls that they were both crying. Joey and Jen encompassed Jack in a hug, and then they all made there way back to the ground.
