Author's note: It's been two and a half months sice Pacey and Joey left for their sailing adventure. In that time, Dawson has moved on with Amber, his friend from Philadelphia. He's finally happy.
Part 1
Dawson and Amber outside his house laying in the hammock, enjoying the summer breeze...
Amber: This feels so great. I'm glad I decided to come to Capeside instead of you coming to Philly. It's a nice town with at least one great person. ( She smiles )
Dawson: Me too. I thought this was going to be the worst summer, but it's turning out not to be so bad. ( He smiles )
Amber: My thoughts exactly.
They begin to kiss, Joey, who is back from her trip with Pacey, is on the dock headed towards his house...
Dawson & Amber are still making out, Joey is standing there...shocked...
Amber: ( taps Dawson on the shoulder, she looks at Joey ) Somebody is here.
Dawson: Please tell me it's not my parents back early from their honeymoon.
Amber: It's not.
Dawson: ( gets up ) Joey! ( surprised )
Joey: I can see this is a bad time. I'll come back.
Amber: No, it's fine. Stay. I've been wanting to meet some of Dawson's friends. I'm Amber Tamarick.
Joey: Joey Potter. Nice to meet you. Well, I better go. I promised Bessie I would give her and Bodie the night off since I've been away all summer.
Dawson: Okay, Joey. Glad to see you back.
Joey: It's good to be back. I couldn't believe how much I missed this town. It's funny, I've been wanting to get away, but when I finally do, all I wanted was to get home again. I'll see you later. Bye. ( She leaves )
Amber: I have to go too, but I'll see you tonight, right?
Dawson: Right.
They kiss and she leaves...
Evening- Joey's house
Bessie: Okay, Joey, Bodie and I are leaving now. Remember to put Alexander to bed no later than eight o' clock. And if Pacey comes over, I expect you two to behave. You're the babysitter tonight. You've had three months to be the teenager in love.
Joey: Okay, Bessie. Just enjoy yourselves and don't worry about anything here.
Bessie and Bodie leave...
Joey: Okay, Alex, let's give you a bath. ( She picks him up and takes him to the tub ) Do you want bubbles? ( Alex nods yes ) Okay. ( She smiles )
She pours the bubble solution in the tub and gives him his bath, she takes him out of the tub and starts to dry him off, there's a knock on the door...
Joey: ( wraps him up in the towel and carries him to the door, she opens it, it's Pacey ) Hey.
Pacey: Hey. ( Smiles ) Looks like you got your hands full there.
Joey: Yeah. I was trying to dry him Alex off when I heard a knock on the door. I'll be back in a few minutes. I have to get him into his pajamas and ready for bed.
Pacey: I'll do it.
Joey: Are you sure?
Pacey: Yeah. Sit down. Take a load off.
Joey: Okay. His pajama are in the top drawer.
Pacey: No problem. ( he smiles )
Pacey takes Alex in the other room, Joey puts a video in and sits down on the couch. It's the video Dawson gave her of when they were little kids. She has a sad look on her face and then she makes a small smile, Pacey is watching her as she watches the video of her and Dawson...
What do you think? Part 2 coming soon! :-)
Take care, Frances
