Macie was a local in Stars Hallow, Pacey was a preppy little asshole from Capeside. One summer, Macie had went to visit her mom in Capeside and she had then met Pacey. He liked everything she did from music to movies. That summer fling was hard on them both and they tried to visit each other as often as possible. Dean Forester had just moved to Stars Hallow that later summer, where he had started school the same time Rory and Macie did. He liked Macie and truthfully she didn't like him back.
