Dawson's Creek, Season 3

[Joey walks over to Pacey in front of a fire and sits down on the log next to him]

Pacey:
You don't have to worry, I'm not going to kiss you again, Joey. [Long pause] What's going on here?

Joey:
[shakes her head] I don't know.

Pacey:
Don't you think I deserve a better answer than that after all this?

Joey:
Pacey, believe me, I've been trying to get you out of my head. I've tried to pretend that this is just some bizarre hormonal glitch, but it's not working.

Pacey:
Do you really want it to work?

Joey:
I tried to tell him.

Pacey:
Really?

Joey:
Yes!

Pacey:
What happened?

Joey:
Well...I couldn't really find the words, Pacey, which I know is odd, considering the sheer volume of words spoken throughout the course of our relationship, but this-

Pacey:
Well, what would you have said to him?

Joey:
I don't know...

Pacey:
I don't believe you.

Joey:
[Stands up] Pacey, I don't have any answers right now, okay, can't you understand that?

Pacey:
The only reason that you don't have answers is because you've been too scared to ask yourself the right questions.

Joey:
What are you talking about?

Pacey:
Look, I know how I feel! You know how I feel! That much is obvious by now, but during this whole process we've managed to miss the point, because the point is not how I feel, it's how you feel...so how do you feel?

Joey:
Awful! That's how I feel, Pacey, I feel awful!

Pacey:
So do I. When I was kissing you tonight, I don't think that I've ever felt better and worse at one time in my entire life. I mean, the very idea that Dawson or Andie would find out about us is killing me...it-it is tearing me up on the inside to have these feelings for you, but I can't get rid of them! I just-i can't keep on kissing you, Jo

Joey:
What do you mean?

Pacey:
I mean just that. I can't keep on kissing you, alright? I've done it twice now. I can't always be the one who's initiating this, I can't be the one who's always giving you the answers. [Pause] Look at me, Joey.

Joey:
I can't.

Pacey:
Please? [She sniffs and looks up at him] If you felt... even one shred... of what I feel for you... then we wouldn't be standing here having this conversation. [He walks past her]

Joey:
[She grabs his hand as he's leaving] Pacey...[pause. They kiss]
