❝

Dawson – Guys, I'm not gonna go over the bases with you

Pacey – I didn't say bases, did you say bases?

❝

Something shifted when my father died; something was lost. And uh, part of me, the part of me that was still hopeful just thought that maybe you and I could be on hold and then all of a sudden this path that I was on, that seemed like such a great idea when I started it, just didn't make any sense. And the more I tried to stick to my routine, the harder it was to breathe. And when Jen and I got out of town, it was like starting over.

—Dawson

❝

Joey, it hurts to be around you...I see you even from across the room and it brings up a thousand memories. Not just of us, but of my entire life before. It's like I'm frozen in this place I can't bare to be. I care about you so much. As long as I can remember, everything's always come back to you and no matter what was happening between us even the thought of you was at least a constant comfort, but I can't go back. It just hurts.

—Dawson
