Chapter 27
I can't believe everything that has happened in the past two weeks, there was a shooting at Capeside, my brother and Pacey were both shot, and now I am dating Dawson Leery. My brother is home now and doing really well. The doctor said he was very lucky. Pacey is doing good other than having his arm in a sling for the next couple weeks. Everything is right again. It's strange how a tragedy can bring people together.
Dawson and Pacey have finally forgiven each other and they are becoming friends again. I can't even begin to explain how happy I am that our group is finally back together.
As for Dawson and I, well, if someone had told me six months ago that we would be dating, I would've told them they were crazy. Now I can't imagine not being with him. He makes me happier than I have been in a very long time. I can't help but smile everytime he crosses my mind.
I'm waiting on him to pick me up now, we're going with Pacey and Joey to pick up our bookbags from Mrs. Leery's restaurant.
I'm sitting in the porch swing daydreaming when I hear the horn from Dawson's Jeep. I see Pacey getting out and getting into the backseat with Joey.
"Hey guys," I say sliding into the front seat next to Dawson.
"Hey Andie," Pacey and Joey say in unison, as Dawson leans over and kisses my cheek.
"How's Jack?" Joey asks.
"He's back to his old self again. He's at Jen's now. He stayed over there last night."
"That's great, I'm so glad he's better." she says.
The rest of the ride to the Leery's restaurant takes me back to old times before everything fell apart. Dawson and Pacey laughing and poking fun at one another. Joey and myself discussing college and such.
Dawson takes my hand as we head into the restaurant. I love the way our hands fit so perfectly together. I could easily fall in love with Dawson. I finally feel like a normal teenager again.
