AN- Here is the next chap! Hope you enjoy! Joey's thoughts in italics.

Jen Lindley was racing downstairs, hoping to get ready before Paey came to pick her up. She smilied as she thought of him. Just last night the two had kissed and he asked her to be his girlfriend. To which she said yes.

''Jennifer.'' her Grams yelled from the kitchen. ''Come here dear.''

Jen walked into the kitchen

''Yes, Grams?'' she asked.

''When will Pacey be here?'' Grams asked.

When had been in such a good mood when she came home yesterday, she told Grams that Pacey and her were a couple. To her surprise, Grams was happy for her.

''Pretty soon Grams. Thanks for being so ok with this.'' Jen said.

''Jennifer, Pacey is such a nice young man. When he was little, he would carry my groceries for me and do little things around my house.'' Grams said, just as the doorbell rang.

''Here he is. Bye Grams.'' Jen said, kissing Grams on the cheek before grabbing her lunch. She opened the front door and smilied at the brown haired boy in front of her.

''Hey Lindley.'' he said, smiling at her.

''Hey Pacey.'' Jen said.

She closed the door behind her and they set off for school, their hands finding each others immediatly.

Dawson and Joey were by her locker talking.

''So you tried to kiss Jen and she didn't want you to?'' Joey asked.

''Yeah, I thought she liked me.'' Dawson whined.

''Dawson, did she actually say she liked you?'' Joey asked.

''Well no.'' he said.

''Then maybe she didn't.'' Joey said, closing her locker. ''Speaking of Jen.'' she said.

Dawson turned around and saw Jen and Pacey walking down the hall hand in hand! He rushed over.

''So what you guys are a couple?'' Dawson asked.

''Yea Dawson we are.'' Jen said.

''I thought you were my friend, how could you do this to me Pacey.'' Dawson said, before marching away.

''He'll come around.'' Joey offered.

''I hope so. See you later Jen.'' Pacey said, kissing Jen before walking to his class.

''So you seem happy.'' Joey kidded.

''Very.'' Jen said, closing her locker and walking to class with Joey.

After school, Joey is at the Ice House when Jen comes in looking horrified.

''What's wrong Jen?'' Joey asked.

''Grams invited Pacey for dinner tonight!'' Jen exclaimed.

''So?'' Joey asked.

''So? So? So!! Joey, my Grams is scary, what if she says something that makes Pacey dump me or worse!'' Jen said.

''Stop being so dramatic.'' Joey said.

Their attention was caught by a shrill giggle and they looked over to see Jack Mcphee flirting with Nellie Olsen.

''Does he know what he's doing?'' Jen asked.

''Whatever. Nellie will be perfect for his stupid football image.'' Joey said, stuffing straws into the straw holder.

''You're jealous.'' Jen stated, looking at her.

''Am not!'' Joey exclaimed. ''Don't you have a dinner to go to.''

''See you Joey. Don't let your jealousy make you do something stupid.'' Jen said, leaving.

Pacey nervously walked up to Jen's house and knocked. Grams opened the door.

''Hi, Mrs. Ryan. Thanks for inviting me.'' Pacey said.

''It's quite all right. Come in.'' she said.

They walked into the kitchen where Jen was setting the table.

''Hi Pacey.'' she said.

''Hi Jen.'' he replied.

While Grams had her back turned, they snuck a kiss. Soon the food was ready and they began to eat.

''Jen told me about Mr. Ryan. I'm very sorry.'' Pacey said. While he walked her home yesterday, Jen told him the reason she was there was to help her Grams with her Gramps, who had collapsed a few days past.

''Yes, our thoughts and prayers are with him. But I can handle it. I've been a RN for the past twenty years.'' Grams said.

''So why did Jen get sent here to help?'' Pacey asked, confused.

''Oh Jennifer's wild past finally caught up with her.'' Grams said.

''Wild past?'' Pacey asked and Grams saw she went too far.

''So Pacey how's your dad?'' she asked, hurridly changing the subject.

Meanwhile at the Ice House...

Stupid Jack, flirting with stupid Nellie Olsen. Doesn't he know what a bitch she is?? I mean come on he should have standards. Stupid Nellie, she's not even that pretty! No what am I saying. I sound jealous! But I'm not! No siree. I'm not jealous that Jack hasn't been able to take his eyes off her chest since she got here. Oh he smilied at me! God Joey you sound like such a girl. Here comes Dawson act cool!

''Hey Dawson.'' Joey called, as her best friend took a seat.

''Hey.'' he replied, sadley.

''Still upset about Jen and Pacey?'' Joey asked.

''A little, but I acted like an idiot.'' Dawson said.

''Yeah you did.'' Joey agreed.

''Do you think they'll ever talk to me again?'' he asked.

''Of course they will.'' Joey said, trying to ignore the way Nellie had her hand on Jack's arm.

After dinner Jen asked Pacey to take a walk. They arrived on the dock outside her house.

''I haven't been completly honest with you.'' Jen said. ''The real reason I was sent here was because my life in New York was bad. I was the kind of girl who could take any drug and drink any drink. When I was 12, I lost my virginity to some older guy who got me drunk. After that, I slept with a few guys. After the first pregnancy scare, I went on the pill. When my parents caught me in their bed with a guy, they thought enough was enough and sent me here.''

''Why didn't you tell me?'' Pacey asked.

''I didn't want to scare you away.'' Jen replied. ''But I understand if you never want to see me again.'' she said, standing up.

Pacey grabbed her arm before she could go anywhere.

''Who says I never want to see you again?'' Pacey asked.

''Well I just thought...'' Jen started.

''You thought wrong. My life isn't exactly perfect. My whole family doens't give a crap about me. You're the best thing that's happened in my life for a long time. I don't care about your past. I want to be with you Jen, despite that.'' Pacey said.

Jen smilied brightly as she leaned up to kiss him.

Back at the Ice House...

''Excuse me. I was wondering if you know where I can find Jack Mcphee.'' a blonde girl asked.

''He's right over there.'' Joey said pointing to where Jack was still flirting with Nellie, not that it bothered her.

''Who's that my brother is flirting with?'' the girl asked.

''Nellie Olson. If I were you, I'd tell her brother to definatly stay clear of her.'' Joey offered.

''Thanks, I'm Andie Mcphee by the way.'' Andie said.

''Joey Potter and this is my friend Dawson Leery.'' Joey introduced them.

''Hi.'' Dawson said.

''Hi.'' Andie said, blushing slightly.

While they got to know each other, Joey went in the back to get more ketchup containers.

''Need help?'' Jack asked.

Joey turned around to see that Jack had followed her in.

''Done flirting?'' Joey asked, trying to sound casual.

''Why do you care?'' Jack asked.

''I don't. Just be warned. Nellie Olson in Capeside's bigest bitch.'' Joey told him.

''Well, I'll be careful.'' Jack said, smirking.

''Whatever. I tried to warn you.'' Joey said, rolling her eyes and walking back to the front.

Jack walked back out to see Andie waitng for him. After clocking out, they leave.

''So that was the Joey girl who you thought was cute?'' Andie asked, the mintue they were outside.

''Don't know what you're talking about Andie.'' Jack insisted, blushing.

Andie just smilied knowingly. Hopefully they'd both run into Joey and her cute friend Dawson soon.
