Chapter 17
Joey POV

Wow, six months ago I would not have pictured that I would be where I am today, I think as I�m sitting in a corner office of the best publishing company in all of New York. 

�Ms. Potter, there is someone here to see you,� the voice over the intercom says.

�Thank you Marlene,� I reply, �send them in.�

�Ms. Potter,� a voice says upon entering my office.

�Mr. Witter, what can I do for you?� I ask, smiling.  After Pacey came up to the B&B, we
talked for hours. Then Pacey asked me to come back to the city.  I did, and finally got the right connections to get into the editor position that I�ve wanted all my life.  I also got the man of my dreams, which doesn�t often happen.

�I brought you lunch and then we are going for a walk,� Pacey says. 

�Oh? When did you start to control my life?� I question.

�Since the moment we met, Potter,� Pacey answers as we start to eat.

�So you brought me to the docks because?� I ask as we stand out by the Atlantic Ocean.  We�d finished lunch and had taken that walk.

�Because when I was little I always loved the ocean. I said when I found the right girl and was going to propose, I would do it by the ocean,� Pacey says as he gets down on one knee.

�Oh my god,� I whisper, the only thing that I could manage to get out.

�Will you marry me?� Pacey asks.

�Yes,� I reply as I jump into his arms.  We had been through everything and now we were going to get married.  This wasn�t how I pictured my life, but I�m sure glad that this is the way it�s turned out.
