Capeside, Mass

'So Joey, you've got this place to yourself next week?' Jen stated as she sat down with the gang.

'Where are Bessie and Bodie going?' Mac asked as she sat on the couch next to Harm.

'They're going to Bodie's parents. But I won't be alone, Dawson is staying with me!' Joey replied.

'Really Dawson?' Jen said smirking at him.

'Jen!" Joey said annoyed as there was a knock on the door, 'I'll just get that' she added.

Follow me and I'll show you to your room,' Joey said to the new guest, walking into the lounge room. 'These are….'

'Mic what are you doing here?' Mac said in shock.

'Yeah Bugme! What are you doing here?' Harm said glaring at him, he added 'we're meant to be working!'

'It's Brumby and I came to see my fiancée!' Mic glared back not noticing the looks that Jen and Joey were shooting at each other.

'I'm going for a run,' muttered Harm as he stood up and left the room.

'I'll help you unpack Mic,' Mac offered standing and walking across to where Mic was.

'Well he's in the room next to Harms,' Joey told them, unless you guys want to share a room?"

"NOPE! That's fine Joey!' Mac quickly squashed that suggestion as she headed in the direction of the rooms. Mic gave Mac a weird look.

'Well that was unexpected,' Jack burst out, as the group all kept glancing at each other.

'I was sure Harm and Mac were together,' said Andie.

'Well, you weren't the only one! Jen and I were talking about them when we went to get the sodas and popcorn last night,' Joey added.

'Looks like JAG have their very own love triangle,' suggested Jen. Immediately realising she'd put her foot in it, when she noticed Dawson, Joey and Pacey all tense up.

'Andie, we should probably go and clean up the house, before Dad gets back tonight…. ' Jack suggested trying to ease the uncomfortable feeling that had descended on the group.

'We cleaned it before we left this morning Jack,' Andie replied looking at her brother oddly.

'Ah, no remember, we left the kitchen untidy,' Jack said shooting a look at her.

'Oh that's right, we did too!' Andie said pretending that they really had.

'Jen do you want a lift home? It's on our way,' Jack offered knowing full well that it wasn't.

'Oh yeah, that would be great,' Jen answered.

'Alright then, lets go,' Jack said as the three of them stood up and grabbed their bags.

'Drop around tonight,' Andie added to Pacey as she kissed him and followed Jack.

'See-ya guys!' Jen waved as she followed the other two out the door.

'I think you call that a quick exit!" Joey said.

'Hmm, subtle aren't they?' added Pacey.

'Well you've got to admit, the three of us didn't exactly let Jen's comment roll of our backs did we?' Dawson replied looking at the other two.

'Why are you here Mic? Mac asked.

'To see you!'

'You know that Harm and I are here in an attempt to reconstruct our friendship. You being here is just putting an added strain on that. But that's what you wanted isn't it?"

'Mac what are you accusing me off?' Mic demanded.

'I think you know!' Mac glared at him 'I'm going to find somewhere for a work out' Mac said storming out of the room.

'I thought we all agreed we we're going to let what happened last summer slide,' Joey said.

'I have!' Pacey and Dawson declared simultaneously. Joey gave them both a disbelieving look 'sure that's why when Jen mentioned a love triangle the two of you tensed up.'

'You weren't exactly relaxed about the conversation either Joey,' Pacey smirked at her.

'I was concerned about the reaction you both had!'

'Bull! You were worried about Dawson's reaction! Let's face it, this has nothing to do with me, it may have been in the beginning, but it's totally about the relationship the two of you have now.' Pacey said looking at each of them and heading for the door. 'Face it! The two of you have to deal with what went down last summer. Either get together and have a relationship or move on and forget about it! Added Pacey as he walked out the door.

Mac waited at the entrance of the lounge room until she was sure the conversation was finished. Walking into the lounge room, she noticed Dawson and Joey looking at each other.

'Sorry to interrupt. I was wondering if there was anywhere, I could go to work out?'

'You could use the school's gym. If they ask tell them, I sent you!

'Thanks Dawson,' Mac replied picking up her bag, as Mic walked into the room.

'Where are you gong? WE need to talk!'

'I think we've said more than enough! I'll be back later.' Mac said walking out the door.

'I might go for a walk.' Mic said as Dawson and Joey looked at him.

'Looks like we're not the only ones who need to sort out a few things,' Dawson said.
