�Are you sure you don�t want to move in Pace? Aren�t you seasick yet?� Jen asked Pacey desperately.
�Uh-uh Lindley. You know I feel most at home at sea.�
�Psycho� Jen shook her head in disbelief. �Here I am offering you a warm, comfortable bed, rooming with two beautiful women and you�re turning it down for a hammock on a dingy boat!�
�Hey!� Pacey cried out feigning hurt, �No insulting HOPE. You insult my boat, you insult me- we are but one entity.�
�Yeah whatever.� Jen rolled her eyes. �Well I guess Joey and I will have to advertise for a new roommate then.�
�I�m not sure I like the idea of you two rooming with a stranger? And it better not be a guy.� Pacey warned her over protectively.
�Oh this is rich coming from the one person who can save us all the trouble.�
�Don�t guilt trip me Lindley. It�s not my fault Jack moved into the frat house.�
�That treacherous bastard� Jen muttered in time for Jack to hear her as he approached their table.
�Did someone call my name? A frapaccino for the lady.� He offered her, batting his eyelashes, obviously asking for forgiveness.
Jen took it reluctantly �Ok- but I�m still not finished making you feel guilty.�
�I guess that�s fair enough� he accepted as he sat down. �Have you convinced Popeye yet?� he asked nodding his head towards Pacey.
�The answer�s no Jackers. I�m a one home guy, and nothing says home sweet home like my HOPE.�
�I can�t believe you�re giving up a warm, comfortable bed, rooming with two beautiful women, for a hammock on a dingy boat!�
Pacey looked at Jack in disbelief, while Jen cried out �That�s exactly what I said!�
�What is this? Some kind of conspiracy! And by the way- you two spend way too much time together.� Pacey shook his head and looked at his watch.
�I�m going to have to get back to work.� He stood up and grabbed his jacket. �So what�s the plan for this evening?�
�Movie night at our place� answered Jen, sipping her frapaccino.
�Dawson will be proud of us.� Pacey chuckled a he approached the exit. �I hope that he knows we�re continuing his traditions without him.�
�See ya Pace� Jen called out after him, watching him open the door just in time to bump into Joey.
�Pacey� she smiled seductively at him. �Has Jen spoken to you yet?�
Pacey laughed knowingly. �Ah-ah- not you as well Potter. I will tell you what I told them- I have a home.�
�So you�re passing up a warm, comfortable bed, rooming with two beautiful women-�
�-for a hammock on a dingy boat?� Pacey interrupted her, finishing off the sentence. �Do you guys pass out crib notes or something?� he asked looking back at Jen and Jack who were now rolling over in hysterics.
�So that�s a no?� Joey put on her puppy dog face, batting her eyelids at him, knowing all of Pacey�s weak spots.
�Uh-uh- no you don�t Potter- no not the face, that�s not fair. I�m late for work.� He pushed past her, avoiding her eyes and escaped out of the coffee shop, calling �See ya later� over his shoulder.
Joey walked over to Jack and Jen, slumping down in to the chair defeatedly.
�So I guess this means plan B� Jen muttered.
�I hope you realise that this is all your fault� Joey spoke pointedly at Jack.
Jack sighed, rolling his eyes, and grabbed the frapaccino out of Jen�s hand desperately handing it to Joey as a peace offering.
�Frapaccino?�
Joey rolled her eyes as Jack and Jen burst into laughter. It appeared that advertising for a new room mate was their only option. |
