Chapter#4
Stumbled upon Love:
(Pacey's thoughts)
My conversation with Doug calmed my nerves a great deal. Kissing Joey took every ounce of courage I had. Asking her out required even more. I'm on the right path though. Potter kissed me back the second time, this has to be a good sign. She wouldn't do so had she not felt something the first time. While Jo hasn't agreed to a date just yet, she hasn't turned me down either. I've been saving for a few weeks and am buying Joey a beautiful bracelet. She will love it too, the one I have in mind is white gold with three charms. One is a heart, the other is a lock and key. Pretty sure Potter is going to love it too. She means a lot to me and I need Jo to know this.
(Doug's thoughts)
Pacey came to me for advice again about the Potter girl. Seems that my little brother is quite smitten with her. Those two have been friends since they were toddlers. Hell, I remember watching them chase one another for hours. They pretend to dislike one another but everyone knows it's an act. Pacey is always there for Joey when she needs him. He has been wanting to ask her out for a while. The thought of rejection has deterred him. The other day, I encouraged Pacey to put himself out there for Joey once and for all. Glad to see he finally listened. Pacey took a risk and kissed Joey, she kissed back eventually. While Joey hasn't agreed to a date, she hasn't said no either. He is hoping the bracelet he'll buy will win Jo over. I'm proud of Pacey for going after what he wants, with hope he'll get the girl.
(Bessie's thoughts)
Never imagined I would see the day Joey went out on a date with Pacey. That is precisely where she was last night. Those two spent their entire lives arguing and protesting their hate for one another. Typical grade school logic. My mom and I had always hoped Joey would find her way to Pacey. He asked her out on a date. Jo hasn't told Pacey yes yet, something tells me that she will. Why else would she admit to kissing him back?
(Joey's thoughts)
Pacey has my stomach in knots. He kissed me and to my shock, I not only allowed him to…I kissed back. I've got absolutely no idea what any of this means. …Or well, fine. Maybe it means that I like Witter. All of this is new and scary for me. I'm supposed to loathe Pacey, not like him. He asked me out and I said maybe. Our friendship might be dysfunctional, but I have come to depend on Pace. What if we ever broke up? What would I tell myself then? Bessie was over the moon when I told her about Pacey and I. Her and my mom swore we were meant to be together. Is it possible they could have been right? I'm supposed to see Witter tomorrow, he asked me out and I told him maybe. Our lips touching is all I can seem to think about currently. Pacey was my first kiss, go figures.
