That's What Friends Are For
By Julianna

Joey and Andie are walking to the Icehouse together to meet Pacey and Dawson. It is a summer night in July and they were all going to the new theather together.

They entered the Ice House (it hasn't burned down in this story!). Pacey and Dawson were waiting for them at a table. Joey looked over at Jack, who was working that evening. She couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Joey and Jack broke up when Jack realized he was gay. He is such a sweet guy, and it was hard for Joey. Eventually she got over it and now Dawson and Joey were together.

Pacey: Hey Joey.

Joey: Hi Pacey, Hi Dawson. Joey went over to Dawson and kissed his cheek.

Andie: Hi Pacey. So what should we do?

Pacey: Can we please eat!? I am starving?

Andie: God, Pacey we just ate like 2 hours ago.

Pacey: I'm hungry again.

andie: Okay we'll eat. Is that okay with you guys?

Joey: Sure, whatever

The four friends sat down and ordered burgers and fries.

Dawson" So what movie do you want to see?

Andie: OH! Can we see Never Been Kissed?

Joey: Fine with me.

Pacey: Uhh..okay, whatever.

Their food came and they quickly so they wouldn't miss the movie.

As they were walking to Pacey's car, another car came wildly though the parking lot of of control and smaked rigt into all four of them. The driver was Jen and she was drunk!

Jack and Bessie came running out when they heard such a loud noise. Jen was sitting in her car, trembling and very scared. Pacey, Andie Joey, and Dawson were on the ground in serious condition.

Bessie: Jack call an ambulance.

**** The ambulance had come and taken Joey, Dawson, Pacey, and Andie to the hospital. Bessie and Jack had folowed the ambulance in Bessie's car. The drunken Jen was at the police station.

Andie and Joey both had only minor injuries, but Dawson and Pacey were in serious condition.

Andie and Joey were sitting in the waiting room at the hospital. Both had been examinmed and Joey had broken her arm. Andie and Joey both had a few brusies.

Andie looked at Joey with tears in her eyes.

Andie: Will they be okay?

Joey: God, I hope so. I can't believe Jen. I have always known there was something wrong with that girl. I don't mean to sond harsh but...

Andie: I know what you mean.

They both sat in silence, until a doctor came over to them.

Andie and Joey jumped up anxiously.

Andie: How are they?

The Doctor: Dawson is on life support, I don't know if he'll make it. Pacey is in a coma, and his future looks unclear. I really don't know what will happen to them. Dawson is in serious condition, but if you'd like you can see Pacey.

Andie looked at Joey and said," Would you mind if I go see him by myself?"

Joey shaked her head yes, and sat down. Pacey was her friend, but at that time she only wanted to see Dawson.

Meanwhile Andie walked into the room where Pacey was. She gasped when she saw him. His body was cut up and limp. His eyes were closed and he looked dead, yet he was breathing.

"Pacey," Andie wispered and walked over to his bedside.

"Pacey, please wake up. Please," Andie begged.

"You can't go Pacey. I'll never be able to live with out you. I love you, Pacey," Andie said.

Suddenly, Pacey's eyes opened and he looked at Andie and said,softly,"I love you too."

Andie smiled. She knew he would be alright.

Joey was still sitting in the waiting room, when Andie came back. Jack and Bessie had arrived by then.

Jack: Andie are you okay?

Andie: I'm fine and so is Pacey. He finally woke up!

Joey: I wish Dawson was doing fine.

Joey put her head down and began to cry, silently.

Dawson was her soulmate. He had to live and be with her. She had always dreamed of being with Dawson..forver. On the night they caetred a wedding, she had mapped out her wedding with Dawson. Joey had hoped one day she would be able to be marry him, and have kids, and a wonderful life. Joey sighed. Her poor Dawson could die and it would all be that drunken slut Jen Lindley's fault.

Bessie gave Joey a hug, and Joey stayed in Bessie's arms for a long time Until she feel asleep in the hospital. Waiting. She was waiting for news about Dawson, her one true love.

*** Joey woke up in the uncomfortble hospital chair the next moring. andie, Jack, and Bessie had also spent the night at the hospital. Mitch and Gale had been in Miami, but after hearing about Dawson were trying to find a flight home, quickly. Joy sighed and asked," Have you guys heard any news about Dawson yet?" They all shook their heads, and Joey sighed again. Pacey was awake and doinf much better. He would be able to go home in a few days. Dawson was still in ICU, and they no one was able to see him, so they had no choice but to sit and wait.

Joey got up. I think I'll get some coffee, anyone want to come.

"Sure!" andie said and she jumped up.

"I think I'll pass," said Bessie.

"Yeah me too," said Jack.

So, Andie and Joey went to get some coffee.

Andie: I am so scared. I know you are are too, Joey.

Joey: Why are you scared? Pacey's doing fine!

Andie: Yeah but, he's still not perfectly alright. And Dawson...

Joey:: I really hope he gets better, Andie. He has to. I love, Dawson, and I don't want him to die. I already lost my mother..I don't want to lose Dawson too.

Andie: I know how you feel. It was tragic when my brother died, and I don't think I could ever go through that again.

Andie and Joey walked into the coffee shop and ordered their coffees, then went back to Bessie and Jack.

Bessie ran up to Joey before she could get they could reach Jack and Bessie.

Bessie: Joey! Great news! Dawson is making a fast and wondrful recovery! He has been examined and is already out of ICU! I don't know why they waited so long to tell us!

Joey: Oh my god! Thats great!

Jack: Pacey and Dawson are in the same room, and the doctor said we could see them.

Andie, Joey, Bessie, and Jack walked to Dawson and Pacey's room.

When Joey saw Dawson sitting there, healthy and well, she knew it would be alright.

Epilouge

Dawson and Pacey recovered fast. Pacey and Anide remained together and so did Dawson and Joey. Jen was sent to a reform school for a few years. I hoped you liked my story! Most fanfictions are about a couple or just one person. I wanted to write about everyone! (well, almost everyone)
