In Your Dreams

Chapter 19 - Her First Real Everything


Back at the Witter's, Pacey walked Andie to his front door. He turned and looked at her with his eyes burning into hers.
She took his hand and brought him closer to her, then placing her hands upon his cheeks she pulled him down to her face
to tell him something.

"Pacey, you were and always will be my first real love, real relationship and the first guy to intimately explore my entire
body and I don't regret any of it, please know that, I love you Pace and in some way I always will without a doubt."
He looked at her even more deeply with his big puppy eyes, she stroked his cheeks with her thumbs and slowly leaned in,
kissing him sweetly on the lips quickly before pulling away. He knew what the kiss meant, it was a symbol of friendship
and reliability and even though he wanted more out of it, he knew deep down inside where Andie's heart really was at this
point. After the kiss, Pacey pulled his ex girlfriend into a big bear hug lifting her a little ways off the ground in the
process.

"Thank you...for understanding, " her voice muffled into his strong shoulder. Pacey hugged her tighter now.

"I can't say it was something I expected to hear but...." he talked into her sweet smelling neck as they stayed locked
together. "All I ever wanted was for you to be happy, and if this is what's going to do that for you, then my mission has
been accomplished," he finished, releasing her back down onto the porch. He coughed a little fighting back the choked up
feeling in the back of his throat. "So go see her....hang out, have fun...be happy," he managed to say without crying.
She took his hand and began walking off the porch stretching them apart until she let go, remembering something from when
they were dating she turned back to him and kissed her own hand pointing it towards him. Pacey reached out and pulled the
air blown kiss to his heart. That was it, as soon as Andie drove off, it hit him..hard. His true emotions got the best of
him as he watched her license plate number become more and more blurry as she got further down the street. He couldn't say
when the next time they'd talk would be, he couldn't even recall what exactly had just happened, all he knew was he loved
that girl so much that it hurt and although he knew her love for him wasn't the same, he tried his best to make himself
feel happy for her. Pacey wiped his eyes and ran his hands over his forehead, sniffling a bit, he re gained his tough
exterior and headed back into the house.

"And now we're standing face to face...isn't this world a crazy place....just when I thought our chance had past, you go
and save the best for last...." Andie sang the Vanessa Williams song while making her way down the road, she saw Pacey
watching her from the porch and finally going back inside through her driver's mirror and she felt right away that the
song she was singing at the moment, directly related to what she was feeling for him. It was like the lyrics said, just
when she thought he didn't have a chance in the world of understanding her feelings for Jen, he comes out and shows
that sweet understanding guy you just can't help but love. Andie continued to sing, as she made her way to the next
destination on her list.

All of the nights you came to me
When some silly girl had set you free
You wondered how you'd make it through
I wondered what was wrong with you
`Cuz how could you give your love to someone else
And share your dreams with me
Sometimes the very thing you're looking for
Is the one thing you can't see
But now were standing face to face
Isn't this world a crazy place
Just when I thought our chance had past
You go and save the best for last


Sometimes the very thing you're looking for
Is the one thing you can't see

Sometimes the snow comes down in June
Sometimes the sun goes around the moon
Just when I thought our chance had past
You go and save the best for last
You went and saved the best....for last
