AN- I have decided who Joey should be with! You'll have to wait until next chapter though. In the mean time, enjoy this one.

Dawson and his ''crew'' were busy working on his movie. Joey and Pacey still needed to kiss and there unwating to do so was getting on his nerves.

''It was big, scary and it attacked me.'' Joey's character, Stephanie, said

''I might believe you, Stephanie, but I believe in you.'' Pacey's charcter, Steven, said.

Slowly he leaned down to kiss her. Joey closed her eyes and just as Pacey's were about to meet hers, she pushed him away.

''Ugh, I'm sorry Dawson, he is just so unkissworthy.'' Joey exclaimed.

''Joey you guys have to do this!'' Dawson yelled from his spot next to Jen.

''He's not unkissworthy Joey.'' Jen said.

''So why don't you kiss him.'' Joey told her.

''No! It wouldn't work. Joey your characters are in love. You need to kiss!'' Dawson yelled.

''Jeez Dawson, take a pill and chill.'' Pacey said walking over to his friend. ''It was just a suggestion, oh wise one.''

''Well as much fun as this has been, I need to go. I'll see everyone in school tomorrow.'' Jen said, waving bye.

''Well if Jen's leaving, I'm outta here too. Bye boys.'' Joey said, walking to her rowboat.

''See you D.'' Pacey said, heading to where he parked his dads car.

They all left, leaving Dawson stadning there, griping out not getting good help these days.

The next day at school, Joey and Jen were by Jen's locker talking.

''So why is everyone in such a good mood today?'' Jen asked.

''The big dance is tonight and everyone is going.'' Joey said, rolling her eyes

''You sound happy about it.'' Jen said.

''Yeah, Dawson, Pacey and me just watch movies in Dawson's room.'' Joey told her.

''So Pacey doesn't go?'' Jen asked, disapointly

''Well no, not usually. You never know, he might go now that you're here.'' Joey offered.

Jen smilied.

Later that day, Jen was at her locker when Dawson came up to her.

''Hey Jen, I was wondering. Do you want to go to the dance with me tonight?'' Dawson aksed hopefully.

''Well Dawson, I was actually thinking we could...all go as a group.'' Jen said quickly.

Oh like you, me, Pacey, and Joey?'' he asked.

''Yeah.'' Jen said.

''Ok, I'll let them know. Bye Jen.'' Dawson said.

Jen closed her locker with a sigh.

''Can you please tell me why we are all going to the dance together?'' Joey asked Jen, furiously.

It was after school and Jen and Joey were at the Ice House.

''I didn't want to say no and hurt his feelings. I wanted Pacey to ask me.'' Jen said.

Joey sighed.

''Well you don't have to worry about that now.'' she said.

''Wanna come over to my house to get ready?'' Jen asked.

''Sure, I guess.'' Joey told her.

The two girls left the Ice House.

Meanwhile at Screen Play Video

''So we're all going as a group?'' Pacey asked.

''Yeah, I guess she felt so werid about going with just me, that she wanted you guys there too. You'll keep Joey busy right? I don't want her butting in.'' Dawson said.

''Well how do you know Jen is even gonna dance with you?'' Pacey questioned.

''I asked her to go with me.'' Dawson said matter-of-factly.

''Did she say yes?'' Pacey asked.

''Well no not exactly.'' Dawson said. ''But I could see that's what she meant.''

Dawson looked at his watch.

''Come on, we need to go get the girls.'' he said.

The two boys walked up the the Ryan/Lindley residence. Grams let them in.

''Well don't you two looking charming.'' she said.

''Thanks, Mrs. Ryan.'' Pacey said.

''Hey guys.'' Joey said, comig downstairs. She was wearing a simple red dress that reached her knees with her hair down.

''You look nice Joey.'' Dawson said, politly.

''Yeah, you clean up kinda nice there Potter.'' Pacey kidded.

''So do you.'' Joey said.

''Hey guys.'' Jen said coming downstairs. She was in a dark blue, spegetti strapped dress that reached her knees.

''Wow, you look...'' Dawson started.

''Amazing.'' Pacey finished for him, looking at Jen in awe.

She smilied at him.

''Thank you Pacey.'' she said.

''Let's go.'' Dawson said, giving Jen his arm quickly.

She took it politly. Pacey gaveve Joey his arm as well.

''A beautiful woman such as yourself needs an escort.'' he said to her questioning look.

She smilied her thanks at him and the four left the house.

They arrived at the gym and Dawson immditaly asked Jen to dance. She agreed.

''It seems Dawson was right.'' Pacey said.

''About what?'' Joey asked.

''Jen really did want to come with him.'' Pacey told her.

''Well it's her loss if she did, but somehow I doubt it.'' Joey told him.

''Would you liek to dance Jo?'' he asked.

''Sure just don't step on my toes.'' she told him, taking his hand as he led them to the dance floor.

''Can't promise anything.'' he said.

They began to dance, Pacey looking at Jen and Dawson every chance he had. Joey sighed.

''What's up?'' Pacey asked.

''Nothing.'' Joey said, beginning to lead the dance. She ended up leading him right to where Dawson and Jen were dancing.

''Jen I need you to switch with me. Pacey won't stop stepping on my toes.'' Joey said.

''Ok Joey, I'll gove her toes a break.'' Jen said, as she and Joey switched dance partners.

Pacey smilied greatfully at Joey.

''So, how are you liking your first Capeside High dance?'' Pacey asked her.

''It's a blast. How could I miss it.'' Jen said.

Pacey laughed

''I don't know what Joey was talking about, you're a really good dancer.'' Jen said.

''Please, no pictures.'' Pacey said.

Jen rolled her eyes.

''You know, only suggested this group dance thing because I didn't want to hurt Dawson's feelings.'' Jen said.

''Really?'' Pacey asked.

''Yeah. I was really waiting for you to ask me.'' Jen told him.

''You were?'' Pacey asked.

''I like you Pacey.'' Jen said.

''You do?'' he asked.

''Ok are all your answers gonna be questions?'' Jen asked.

''No. I like you too Jen.'' he said, slowly leaning down. Just as their lips were about to touch they heard.

''Can I cut in?'' Dawson asked.

''No Dawson, we're kinda in the middle of something.'' Pacey said.

''Well Pacey, no offense, but Jen is my date and I would really appreciate it if you back off.'' Dawson said glaring at Pacey.

''Wait, your date. This is a group thing.'' Pacey said.

''Yeah, becuase she was too shy to come here with just me. So get lost.'' Dawson said, smiling down at Jen.

''You know, maybe I'll get lost.'' Jen said, pushing both boys out of her way.

''You're an idiot.'' Pacey said to Dawson.

He went after Jen , leaving Dawson standing there, wondering what went wrong.

Pacey found Jen over looking the water at the docks. He walked over to her slowly.

''Jen, are you ok?'' he asked.

Jen turned around smiling.

''I was hoping you'd come after me.'' she said.

''Well we didn't finish our dance.'' Pacey said, holding out his hand.

Jen took it and he pulled her closer, wrapping his arms around her waist as she wrapped hers around his neck, her head lying on his shoulder. They moved together slowing to the music coming from the boats sailing around the harbor.

Ths is heaven they both thought as Pacey kissed her cheek lightly.

AN- That's it for this chap. Joey's love interest will appear in the next chapter so stay tuned!
