full moon rising

Currently, Cola and Mark sat in her backyard, staring up at the stars. They did this a lot, just when they needed someone to talk to, but they didn't want to talk about it. They were holding hands and she had her head on his shoulder. It was a full moon. Cola already knew that Dawson was being sceptical about it.

"I love a full moon. It's so peaceful, y'know?" He says, wrapping his arm around her waist.

"I dunno. According to Dawson and Joey, it throws everything off. I can't help but agree with them. I feel like full moons always mean that something bad is about to happen," Mark laughs, shrugging. He leans in and starts kissing her neck, making her let out a soft sigh. "Weird things always happen during a full moon, I think." She says, moving her hand through his hair.

"Oh, you're scaring me." He said, before pretending that the bench broke. She jumps up, letting out a gasp. She then hits his arm, making him laugh. His arm wrapped around her waist, as she leaned into his chest.

Cola was sitting behind the counter at the video store, her arms crossed as she was trying to get a bit of shut-eye. Pacey sat next to her, watching something on the computer that they had. He hears the bell ringing and he quickly turns off the computer, hitting Cola's knee, making her wake up. She wipes her mouth, looking up and seeing that Pacey was watching a porno. She hides the disk under the counter as she looks to see Andie walking in. She smirked, nudging Pacey, who had a blushed face.

"Well, if it isn't Little Miss McPhee." Pacey said, his hands folding in front of him, as he kicked his feet up onto the counter. Cola shoves his feet off, not wanting it to get dirty.

"I'm just here to rent a movie, Pacey. Also, hi Cola." She said, sending him a playful glare. Cola waves.

"Well, can we help you?" He asks, wrapping an arm around his best friend's waist, pulling her to him.

"Don't bother, I can help myself. Why don't you just go back to your Debbie Does Dallas?" She says, making Cola smirk down at Pacey.

"It's Jacuzzi Floozies, actually." Andie looks at him in disgust before walking away. Cola snorts, hitting his arm. He looks up at her with a shrug.

"Go make it up, Witter." She says, whispering in his ear, making a tingle go down his spine. He gulps, standing up and following after the blonde, Cola watching the two.

"Have you ever noticed that the most interesting part of a porn movie is the title?" Cola facepalmed. Andie didn't seem like the type of person that wanted to talk about porn. "Think about it. You've got the Sperminator, Romancing the Bone, Little Oral Annie." Andie looks up at him as he leans on the shelf next to her.

"I don't know why they bother being so clever. I mean, they're all the same so they should all have the same title: Women Pacey Will Never Do." Cola leans over the counter, extending her hand for a high-five from the girl, which she accepts. Pacey looks at Cola, making her raise her brows, mouthing for him to do something.

"Y'know, McPhee, I think we should really bite the bullet here. Meaning, that all this verbal sparring we're doing is getting quite dangerous. So, we should just go on a date before somebody gets hurt." Cola chokes on her Pepsi, as Andie lets out a scoff, looking up at him. Pacey really didn't know how to do this.

"Forget about it."

"Come on, you know you want to." Andie sighs, looking back up at him.

"Well, maybe if I was asked politely." Cola looked at them, seeing as they were right next to the counter.

"Okay, Andie, would you like to go on a date with me tonight?" He asks, making Cola hide a squeal as she had a big smile on her face, looking up at her best friend. She says okay, making him look at her with a nervous look. "Well, don't sound too enthused."
