Summary
“Were we broken up?”
David whirls around, a bath bomb in each hand. “I’m sorry, what?”
Patrick is focusing a little too intently on the card reader. “You said you needed time. Is that—was it—” His mouth tightens. “Were you just taking some time, or. Was it a breakup?”
David sets down the bath bombs. He’s not sure how to say this. Especially not in the middle of the store, during business hours, with no time to prepare himself.
Finally, he asks, “Didn’t you want it to be?”Series

Summary
When David goes back to his empty bed, he’ll know how it feels to be… here. Patrick pressed against his back, tracing aimless patterns on his skin. David knows what it’s like now, and he already knows that he’ll never be able to un-know it. He’ll be able to feel the absence of it, when the time comes. Every new thing he learns about being with Patrick, every day, every detail. It all just makes the picture clearer. More complete.

Summary
Patrick doesn’t respond correctly - because Patrick has never once responded correctly to David being horrible. He just takes another sip of tea, and fucking smiles again.
“What?” David snaps.
“Nothing, I just-”
He stops, mouth still open, sound still somewhere in his throat. Then he laughs again. It’s quieter this time, more to himself, like he’s surprised himself with it. It’s infuriating, and it’s adorable, and David doesn’t get it.Or, five times Patrick almost said "I love you", and one time David said it first.

Summary
He *told* David that a joint bachelor party two days before the wedding was a bad idea, but even he underestimated Ted and Ray’s affinity for karaoke. It rivals David’s.
David.
Why does the thought of him make his heart squeeze? And not in a good way?
“You’re not up yet?” a voice asks, and he freezes, body tensing with an old defensive mechanism he hasn’t had to employ in far too long. He slowly blinks his eyes open, but the light coming in through the window momentarily blinds him.
“Rachel?”
Or, Patrick wakes up five years in the past. He reacts accordingly.

“Patrick is sleeping,” Alexis says helpfully. “I’m not really sure what David is doing, but earlier he was just sort of smiling dopily at the top of Patrick’s head. It was really gross.”

Summary
and there are some like us,
just walking, making our feet move ahead of us,
a little bored, a little lost, a little angry,
walking as though we were really going somewhere,
walking as if there was something to see at Adelaide or maybe on King,
something that will give a fair return for this use of shoe-leather,
something that will make us smile with a strange new
happiness, a lost but recovered joy.- Raymond Souster, “Yonge Street Saturday Night”

Summary
Canon-divergent fic starting from season 1, episode 13 "Decisions".
When Joey decides to try again to visit her father in prison, she enlists Pacey's help to drive her out there in the middle of the night. But after Pacey's attempt to bribe the prison guard doesn't work, they decide to spend the night in a motel together - just like she had the night before, with Dawson. Only *this* night could end up going very differently, because Joey still remembers how Pacey kissed her outside her house after the carnival, and how it made her feel alive...
A Pacey/Joey story.
