Part 4
It's the weekend, each group is doing their movie assignment...
Leery residence- Dawson in his room, Jack arrives with a video in his
hand...
Jack: I'm here. So, who's movie do we watch first?
Dawson: Well, what movie did you bring?
Jack: " The Matrix " What's your movie?
Dawson: " ET ". I've never seen " The Matrix " I'm not a big fan of all
that special effects stuff.
Jack: Yeah, it's a really cool movie. I think everbody who has seen it
likes it. Even Andie and she is very picky about what movies she likes
to watch. Athough, I think she likes it because of Keanu. I think
that's why I like it too. ( he smiles )
Dawson: So, I was surprised to see you in Film class. I didn't know you
were a film fanatic.
Jack: Well, I'm not really. Andie kind of forced me to take the class
with her. I don't mind though. I think it will be fun.
Dawson: Yeah. So, let's go watch the movies on the big TV. ( They leave
)
Jen's house- Joey rows up to the dock and ties her boat up, she walk
toward the house and looks over at the ladder on side of Dawson's house
and smiles....
Joey: ( to herself ) It's so good to see that again.
She knocks on Jen's door, Jen answers it....
Jen: Hey, Joey. Come on in.
Joey: Hey. ( she walks in )
Jen: You got your movie?
Joey:Yep. You?
Jen: Rght here. It's " The Wedding Singer ". Have you seen it?
Joey: No, I haven't. Not a big Adam Sandler fan.
Jen: Neither was I, but this movie is so sweet and he isn't annoying in
this one Basically, I just wanted to watch something happy. This day
hasn't been so great.
Joey: What happened?
Jen: Henry and I broke up.
Joey: I'm sorry, Jen. Why?
Jen: He came by earlier today and said he was leaving Capeside. His dad
got a new job and they're moving. We both agreed that we didn't want a
long distance relationship, so we ended it.
Joey: Are you okay?
Jen: I'm gonna miss him, but I don't think what we had was love. He was
the first person who made me feel special and I really liked it. But I
think his feelings for me were deeper than mine were for him. That's
not a healthy relationship. So, ready to watch the movies?
Joey: Yeah, but we don't have to watch mine. I'm pretty sure you've seen
it. It's " ET ". ( she smiles )
Jen: Why did you pick that?
Joey: I don't know It's special to me for many reasons.
Jen: One of those reasons being Dawson, I bet.
Joey: Of course. ( she smiles )
Jen: Let's watch the movie.
She puts " The Wedding Singer " in and they start watching it....
McPhee residence- Pacey and Andie in her livingroom....
Andie: How come every time we draw names out of a hat, I always pick
yours?
Pacey: I don't know. Maybe it's fate. ( he smiles )
Andie: Or God punishing me for cheating on the PSATs.
Pacey: Why do you say that? Do you hate me that much?
Andie: Pacey, I don't hate you. It's just a little awkward for you to
be here and for us to be working together.
Pacey: You mean because of everything that has happened in the past
year?
Andie: Well, yeah. It's not weird for you?
Pacey: Actually, no. I feel right at home here. Like I'm supposed to be
here. And I haven't forgotten everything that has been said and done.
Pursuing things with Joey was a mistake. I know that and so does she.
Andie: Pacey, we don't have to talk about this. Let's just watch the
movies and do the assignment.
Pacey Okay. What movie did you choose?
Andie: " Dumbo "
Pacey: Same old Andie McPhee. ( he smiles )
Andie: What movie did you pick?
Pacey: Only a classic. " Scream "
Andie: Same old Pacey Wittter. Let's watch mine first. ( she smiles )
Later in the day...
Jen's house- the movie has finished....
Jen: So, what did you think of " The Wedding Singer "?
Joey: You're right. I really liked it. Very sweet. Although, now I'm
depressed because I don't think he is ever going to see me the way Adam
Sandler's character saw Drew Barrymore's character again. I have really
screwed up things between us. Do you have any ice cream? ( she smiles )
Jen: Let's go check the fridge. ( she smiles )
They go into the kitchen, Grams is cooking something on the stove....
Jen: Mmm.. smells good, Grams.
Grams: Thank you, Jennifer.
Jen: Joey and I will be on the porch eating some ice cream.
Grams: Okay. Don't spoil your appetite.
Jen: We won't. ( they go outside )
McPhee residence- " Dumbo " is still on and it's at the part where Dumbo
goes to see his mother, the song playing gets to Andie, Pacey looks over
and sees...
" Baby Mine "
Baby mine, don't you cry
Baby mine, dry your eyes
Rest your head
close to my heart
Never to part, baby of mine
Pacey: Andie, are you okay?
Andie: ( tears in her eyes ) Yeah. This part always gets to me. And
this song only adds to the saddness of the scene.
Pacey: Look at me.
Andie: Pacey, I'm fine.
Pacey: No. There's more to it than just this scene. Andie, what's
going on?
Andie: ( she looks at him ) Can't hide anything from you, can I? (
pauses ) Pacey, it's my mother. She's not getting any better and I'm
scared she's never going to. ( starting to cry more ) I don't want to
lose my mother, Pacey. I don't want to see her put in a mental
hospital.
Pacey: Come here, Andie.
He pulls her into a tight hug and continues crying in his arms, song
still playing....
Leery residence- Jack has left, Dawson's parents have returned from
running errands...
Gale: Hi honey. Did you and Jack finish your assignment?
Dawson:Yeah. So, what took you so long? The store was busy?
Gale: We just didn't go to the store, Dawson. I had a doctor's
appointment too.
Dawson: Doctor's appointment? Is everything okay?
Gale: Yeah. Everything is fine. Clean bill of health. Although, I'll
probably be experiencing some morning sickness soon because I'm going to
have baby. ( she smiles )
Dawson: What!?!
Mitch: We were surprised too, but we're very excited about it.
Gale: Honey, how do you feel about this?
Dawson I'm speechless. I really wasn't expecting this at all. You know,
I have some homework I have to finish up. Can we talk about this
later?
Gale: Sure, honey.
He goes up to his room and lays down on his bed, thinking to himself...
a brother or sister? I guess when your parents life is one big
honeymoon, a baby is bound to happen. Although, I really wish it hadn't.
Got feedback? Part 5 coming soon! :-)
Take care,
