AN- Hi I"m BACK!! Here is chapter 8. ENJOY!!


Dawson was watching T.V when Joey climbed into his room that night.

''What's up Jo?'' he asked.

''The baby is crying and keeping me up all night. Can I crash?'' she asked.

''Sure.'' Dawson said, throwing back the covers.

''Thanks.'' Joey said, lying on the bed.

''Hey Jo, can I ask you something?'' Dawson asked.

''Sure.'' Joey mumbled, seconds away from sleep.

''What do you think of Andie?'' he asked, looking over at her.

He saw her fast asleep.

''Goodnight Joey.'' he said, drifting off.


Pacey walked into school looking all over for the familer blonde.

''Hey Pace.'' Joey said walking over to him.

''Hey Jo, have you seen Jen. I can't find her.'' Pacey said.

''No, I haven't. Sorry Pacey.'' she said.

''It's cool.'' Pacey told her walking to his locker.

As he was putting his books away, he spotted her walking down the hall.

''Hey Jen!'' he called, closing his locker and running after her.

Was it his imagination or did she start to walk faster?

''Jen!'' he called again.

This time is wasn't his imagination. Jen practicly ran down the hall to avoid him.


Pacey walked into the boys locker room to get ready for gym.

''Hey Pacey, you ok?'' Jack asked from his locker.

''Yeah I'm fine.'' Pacey said.

''Cool, today we're playing some B-Ball.'' Jack said, imitating shooting a ball into a net.

''Don't do that.'' Pacey told him as they walked into the gym.

''Hey Witter, where's your slut of a girlfriend.'' one of the guys in their class shouted.

Pacey turned around fast.

''What did you say.'' he said.

''I said, where's your girlfriend. You know, the slut from New York.'' he said.

Pacey saw red and was about to go after him when Jack stopped him.

''Don't. That's Cliff Elliot, he's just mad because Jen wouldn't go out with him.'' he told Pacey.

''Hey Mcphee, where's that Potter trash?'' one of Cilff's friends shouted.

Jack stopped holding Pacey back as he ran to the guy and started punching him. Pacey followed suit going after Cliff.

The gym teacher only saw Pacey and Jack attack the boys and quickly pulled them off.

''Witter, Mcphee, detention for both of you this Saturday, now go to the office!'' he shouted.


Meanwhile Jen and Joey were sitting in Science class and Joey was trying to find out what was bugging Jen. She passed a note to her.

Why are you avoiding Pacey?

Jen quickly wrote something and passed it back.

I'm not avoiding him.

Joey wrote something and passed it back.

Then why did you run from him in the hallway?

Jen was about to write back when the techer grabbed the note form her hand.

''Note passing ladies? This is not the class for notes. You can both think about it in Saturday detention.'' she said.

The girls groaned.


Andie was in her health class bored out of her mind.

''Do you think people with severe mental problems need to take medication or should be put away?'' The techer asked.

Andie froze.

''I think crazy people should be put in a looney bin, that way, we as citizens, wouldn't have to worry about the dangers.'' one kid said.

''Very good.'' the techer said.

''Good? You think that was a good response? Just because someone is in a bad emtional place, we need to forget them? You think you're the only one who matters in this situation? These ''crazy people'' as you put it,. aren't exactly living the best life either. They go through life, every day being a struggle to them. So if you think they belon gin a looney bin, then you can go to hell!'' Andie scremed.

The class was deadly silent.

''Miss Mcphee, there is no place here for that kind of language. Please leave and have a Saturday dentention to cool off.'' the teacher said.


Dawson Leery ran down the hallway to his 4th hour, trying to beat the bell. He ran faster and faster, his classroom in sight. Suddenly, he felt his books fly out of his arms and stopped to pick them up. As he grabbed the last one, he heard the bell echo down the hall. He was late, his perfect record in shambles.

Dawson walked into class and the teacher immdiatly wrote him up and gave him Saturday detention.


Saturday arrvied and the six all met in the library, shocked at seeing each other there.

Ms. Tringle walked in.

''Welcome to Saturday detention. Here is where you will think about what caused you to be here. There will be no loud music, no leaving your seats and no leaving the libray unless I say you may. Goodbye.'' she said leaving.

''Thank god she's gone.'' Jen said.

Everyone agreed.

''So why is everyone in detention?'' Andie asked.

''I was tardy to Mr. Jone's class.'' Dawson said.

''Joey I were caught passing notes.'' Jen said.

''Jack, Pacey why are you guys here?'' Andie asked.

''Why are you, Mcphee?'' Pacey asked.

''I told someone to go to hell in class.'' Andie said.

Everyone starred at her.

''Now what did you guys do?'' Andie asked again.

''Who wants to play a game?'' Jack asked instead of answering.

''Like Truth or Dare?'' Joey asked.

''Yeah lets play!'' Andie exclaimed.

''Ok then, Jen truth or dare?'' Pacey asked.

''Truth.'' Jen said.

''Why have you been avoidng me?'' Pacey asked her, looking her straight in the eye.

Jen was taken aback.

'''Pacey, this is neither the time, nore the place to be talking about that.'' Jen said.

''Right, well when you do feel like talking to your boyfriend, unless you just don't want me to be that anymore, then come find me.'' Pacey said, standing up and walking to the corner of the library. Jen sighed and followed him.

''Should we keep playing?'' Jack asked.

Everyone glared at him.


Jen found Pacey sitting by the older books. She sat down next to him.

''I'm sorry for avoiding you.'' she said.

''Why are you. Did I do something wrong. Does this have something to do with sex? Are you breaking up with me?'' Pacey asked, quietly.

''No, yes, and no.'' Jen said. ''You didn't do anything wrong. In fact, you're perfect, which is part of the problem.''

Pacey looked up puzzled.

''When I was in New York Pace, I dated a lot of guys, I slept with a lot of guys. But no guys has ever been able to make me feel this way. When I'm with you Pace, I'm happy. I feel amazing when I'm with you. Having sex was a decision that I wanted and was ready for. What scared me so much was the fact that I can fall for you Pacey and it scares me because I've never felt this strongly about someone.'' Jen said.

''I've never felt this way either Jen, but you and me, we're good for each other.'' Pacey told her.

''Yea we are.'' Jen said, leaning over to kiss him.


The group looked up as Pacey and Jen walked over hand in hand.

''I take it you guys are ok?'' Joey asked.

''Yep, we're great.'' Jen said, smiling.

''Ok it's your turn Jen.'' Andie reminded her.

''Jack, Truth or Dare?'' Jen asked.

''Dare.''

''I dare you to kiss Joey for 10 seconds on the lips.'' Jen said.

''What?'' they exclaimed together.

''Come on do it!'' Andie insisted.

Jack and Joey slowly walked over to each other. Jack rested his hand on her waist while her hand went to his shoulder. They slowly inched their heads toward each other and pressed their lips together.

Dawson and Jen grinned as the kiss becamse more heated.

''10.'' Jen called out but Jack and Joey were lost in the kiss.

''Should we leave?'' Pacey asked.

Finally they broke apart and looked at each other. Suddenly Joey looked away and when to sit down, glaring at Jen in the process.

''Your turn Jack.'' Dawson said.

''Someone else go.'' Jack said.

''Ok I will. Pacey Truth or Dare?'' Andie asked.

''Truth.'' he said.

''Why are you and Jack in detention?'' Andie asked.

Pacey looked at Jack who shrugged. He took and deep breath.

''In gym today, a couple of guys said some stuff.'' he said.

''Like what?'' Jen asked.

''Cliff Elliot called you a slut and one of his friends called Joey Potter trash.'' Jack said.

''So me and Jackers over there were a little upset. The coach had to pull us off the guys.'' Pacey said.

Jen kissed Pacey.

''You did that for me?'' Joey asked Jack.

''I didn't like what they were saying about you.'' Jack said.

Joey felt herself blush and quickly turned away.

''So I guess it's my turn.'' Pacey said, breaking his kiss with Jen. ''Truth or Dare Dawson?''

''Dare.'' he said.

''I dare you to kiss Andie on the lips for 15 seconds.'' Pacey said.

Andie blushed and she and Dawson kissed.

After 15 seconds they pulled away but before anyone could say anything, Ms. Tringle walked in.

''Detetnion is over, you may go now.'' she said.

Everyone grabbed their bags and left.


Pacey dropped Jen off at her house, promising to call her later and walked over to Dawson's.

''Jack really punched that guy?'' Joey asked the moment he entered Dawson's room.

''Yeah he did. Why, do you like him or something?'' Pacey asked.

Dawson laughed as Joey blushed and buried her head in a pillow.

''You like Jackers!'' Pacey exclaimed.

''Pacey, leave her alone. Why did you dare me to kiss Andie anyway?'' Dawson asked.

''I felt like it.'' Pacey said. He knew Andie had a small crush on his friend, thanks to Jack, and didn't want to spill the beans.

Dawson rolled his eyes and started the movie. Joey pulled her head out form the pillow and glared at Pacey.

''Not a word.'' she said.

Pacey smilied.


''So you and Joey were really into that kiss.'' Andie said. ''I don't think I've ever seem you beat someone up for a girl before.''

''What are you getting at?'' Jack asked.

''You like her, don't you?'' Andie asked.

''Yeah, I do. You like Dawson don't you?'' Jack asked.

''A little.'' Andie admitted.

Jack grinned and playfully ruffled her hair.

''Looks like Capeside gave both of us some romance huh?'' Jack asked.
