Dawson's Creek 5...

See, the kiss is just the end result. It's not what's important. It's all about desire and -- and wanting

And the reason I came here tonight is because we need to move on. Look, we're not kids anymore. And I'm not gonna do this anymore. And I just thought you should know

Friends give you the worst of news with the best of intentions.

Maybe she fell in love with him or maybe she just wanted someone to pay attention to her

But when I came home, I'd lost the guy. My soul-mate. It was like having an organ, my heart, literally ripped from my body. All I could feel was cold and empty... my future, slipping away... You see, I lost my love -- but I was determined not to lose my life

The way I feel about him is totally separate from the way I feel about you and about our friendship

You want him. You want him like I want you. You love him like I love you. Only the difference is he loves you back the same way

as complicated as our friendship was, it doesn't even compare to how complicated whatever you and I have here is bound to be. And never in my life has taking the easy way out seemed like exactly what I need to do

I place this unfair burden on people just so they can save me from myself. But I don't need a knight in shining armor. I need a partner. Someone who I am proud to love, who is proud to love me back, in spite of all my flaws. And you're it. You're the one.

And it's great to have somebody that you know so well that you don't even have to verbalize what you're thinking most of the time. The other person just gets it, picks up on it. And -- and it -- it's like that with Joey and me. It's great, and I -- and I like it, but it's -- it's not love

If I'm thanking you for anything... it's for being yourself. It's for not caring what anybody else thinks. It's for knowing in your own heart what's wrong and what's right. And it's for being there this year... when I needed you most

I thought that this is what I wanted. For you to see me as beautiful. For you to look at me the way you look at Jen. But the truth is, that's not really what I want at all. I want you to look at me and see the person that you've always known and realize that what we’ve had is so much more incredible than just some passing physical attraction. 'Cause you know what? It's just make-up -- and hairspray -- and tomorrow I'll be back to being Joey. Just Joey. The too tall girl that lives on the wrong side of the creek

We all have our moments. You know what? Don't stop hoping that things will be different with him. You're way too young to be so bitter.

Before we destroy whatever chance we might actually have at having a relationship, I'm asking you, please stop and think about this, is this really what you want? Is this really the way you want things to end between us?

What is this feeling? It just seems like everything is getting smaller and smaller. It's all still there, but I can't touch it. I think it's called goodbye.

I sat there looking at this incredible reflection of who you are, and I realized that I absolutely hate it when you're not around. I wanted to thank you, I wanted to hold your hand, I wanted to kiss you, but you weren't there

Andie: My knees are shaking...
Pacey: My heart...boom,boom,boom.

I can never go back to loving you the way I did, knowing that my love wasn't strong enough the first time around.

Last night, I stayed up all night thinking about what you said, and... you're right. I don't know what it's like to be in love like that. I don't know what it's like to completely lose yourself in somebody else. But I'd like to

Jen: Well, because right now you've gotta walk through that front door and tell your best friend that the only girl in the universe he can't live without...
Pacey: Is the same one that I can't live without.

But then I think about everything that kiss brought into my life. What it was like to look at you and know not just what you were thinking, but also what you were feeling because I was feeling the same thing, and then it's worth it. It's..worth all the pain that I'm going through. I want to regret kissing you, Joey, but I can't. It was the smartest decision I ever made.

And don't tell me that you're not scared, because I know that you are. I mean, I've known you too long and seen you push away too many good things to let you push me away right now. My whole life, you have been the most beautiful thing in my orbit. And my feelings for you were what proved to me that I could be great. And those feelings were stronger and were wiser and more persistent and more resilient than anything else about me.

Dawson: But what good is their love if it's not strong enough to overcome those circumstances?
Joey: Because in spite of the circumstances... they never stop loving.

I mean, the first time I fell was for my friend, the boy I grew up with, the boy across the creek, and the second time was after we kissed. I mean, you became this whole new person to me and....I fell in love all over again.

I'm afraid because you're the single-most, important being to ever grace my existance. and I am falling hopelessly in love with you
