Time: starts out as the same day and goes to the next day
Andie and Pacey are standing staring at each other
Pacey: So how’s it going?
Andie: Great, you?
Pacey: Great. Um I wanted to talk to you.
Andie: Okay do you want to sit down?
Pacey: Sure. Look Andie I owe you an apology.
Andie: An apology, for what?
Pacey: For the whole Joey thing.
Andie: Look Pacey we don’t need to talk about it. You and Joey have every right to be together. I don’t want you to feel guilty or anything.
Pacey: That’s what I want to apologize about, but Joey and I aren’t together anymore.
Andie: Oh Pacey, I’m sorry I know you were in love with Joey.
Pacey: You don’t have to be sorry I...I wasn’t in love with her.
Andie: What I don’t understand. You said-
Pacey: Forget what I said. I’ll tell you the real reason I started this whole thing with Joey.
Andie: Okay.
Pacey: Andie. I’m still in love with you.
Andie: What?
Pacey: I know you’re thinking that can’t be true but it’s true. I went after Joey because I was trying to get over you. I knew I had no feelings for Joey so I decided that she was safe. Just like Jen. But-
Andie: Wait one minute. Jen? You had a thing with Jen? When was this?
Pacey: A couple of weeks after we broke up.
Andie: I can’t believe this Pacey. I want you to leave.
Pacey: That’s not what you want.
Andie: Yes it is.
Pacey: All right then I leave but before I go please tell me. Do you still love me?
Andie doesn’t say anything
Pacey: Well do you?
Andie: (sort of yelling) Yes, Pacey. Okay, I still you. Does that make you happy?
Pacey: As a matter of fact Mcphee, it does.
Pacey leaves
The next day, the day before school.
Jen is in her room combing her hair the phone rings
Jen: Hello?
Henry: Hi Jen, it’s me Henry.
Jen: Hi wow you’re calling me early in the morning.
Henry: Yeah, how are feeling?
Jen: Wonderful. How are you doing?
Henry: I’m feeling wonderful too. So are we still on for tonight?
Jen: Yeah of course. I actually talked to Grams about.
Henry: You told your grandma that we’re having sex?
Jen: Yeah. It’s the new me, I want to be honest. I don’t want her to think that I’m sneaking around and that I’m not the same person from New York or the same person that came here. I want her to be proud to say that I’m her granddaughter. You know?
Henry: Yeah, I think that is really sweet. I think that’s part of the reason why I like you so much.
Jen smiles
Henry: Well I’m going to let you go.
Jen: YEAH I wanted to go by Joey’s house and say hi to her. We didn’t get to speak when she came by Dawson’s house yesterday.
Henry: When were you at Dawson’s house?
Jen: Well I spent the night the day before yesterday.
Henry: You spent the night at your ex-boyfriends house?
Jen: Yeah it’s really no biggie. We’re just friends you know that. There is nothing for you to be worried about. Trust me.
Henry: I trust you. What time should I be over tonight?
Jen: Around 7:00.
Henry: Okay see you then, bye.
Jen: Bye.

Joey: Yeah I did. It’s just its not home you know?
Jen: Yeah I know what you mean.
Joey: I want to say thanks for all the e-mails and everything keeping me in touch with everything that’s been happening. It was really great.
Jen: No problem. So did reality hit you really hard when you came back. You know you realize that you and Pacey can’t live this happy go lucky life without any one else?
Joey: Actually yes. Pacey and I are no more
Jen: You’re kidding you and Pacey broke up?
Joey: Yep.
Jen: Do you mind me asking who broke-up with whom. Just out of curiosity. But my money is on you.
Joey: No it’s alright actually Pacey broke-up with me.
