"Pacey…" Joey said as she walked into the restaurant's kitchen.

"There is my wonderful fiancé," Pacey said with a smile. "I didn't expect to see you for a while-"

He then was interrupted by a kiss on the lips. He spotted the tears on her face as she stopped kissing him.

"You alright?" Pacey whispered as he kissed her forehead. Joey buried her head into his chest and then that's when he knew something was wrong.

"Let's go into my office." He whispered as he felt his workers have their eyes on them.

When they walked in Joey kissed him more than the last time before the door could even shut. She made him fall on the desk but he stopped her.

"Wait, wait, wait. Tell me what happened."

Joey said nothing as she continued to kiss his neck and then try to take off his shirt but Pacey stopped her.

"Joey. Wait a second." He said as he stopped her with his hand.

She buried her face in his chest and then scoffed.

"My Dad, he um.. he went back to jail."

"He what?!" Pacey yelled. Joey looked up at him and rest her chin on his chin.

"My reaction to, he got pulled over and he had some lovely drugs in his truck. So, he is definitely going to be there for a long time. The only problem is he will not be allowed to walk me down the aisle. Not that I wanted him to but it just seemed right when I really thought about it. For anything, I was going to ask Dawson, if that is ok with you."

"Of course I'm ok with it," Pacey whispered gently as he wiped the new tears falling down her face.

"You still got till June, three months is plenty of time to figure it out. But I think Dawson would be good for you during that time."

"You wouldn't be jealous?" Joey teased as she rubbed her fingers through his hair.

"Well, no because I get you for the rest of my life," Pacey said as he kissed her lips.

When the two broke out of the kiss Joey rested her face into his shoulder.

"Are you alright, though?"

"This is the third time, and I am just so sick of it. I always think that he would somehow change after being in jail again. But then every single time he goes back it just feels like I am thirteen years old again when I hear what happened. I just feel like a naive little girl again for thinking that he is going to change. I just don't want to be upset because of him but I don't know how not to be anymore."

Pacey rubbed her back softly as he kissed the top of her head.

"You aren't naive for thinking that Joey. I think that part of you will always somehow stay there whether you like it or not, especially on major events like these. But you always got me, forever and always." He whispered into her ear. He felt the small smile she let out form into his shoulder and he felt proud to be able to know this beautiful woman he was holding in his arms.

"I love you, Pace."

"I love you too, Jo."
