Potter B and B
Capeside
Mac, Harm, Dawson and Joey are sitting on the dock out the front of the B and B. Since the rest of the group left, the four of them had spent a lot of time together as well as a fair amount of time in their respective pairs, although neither had moved beyond friendship.
'So,' Harm said. 'What are we doing tonight?'
'Flyboy, it's movie night.' Mac reminded him.
'Oh, that's right Ninja girl,' he smirked at her as she punched him in the arm.
'Have you picked the movies yet Dawson?' Joey asked.
'Nope, I'll leave you and Mac to clean up after dinner and Harm and I will go and get ready for movie night,' Dawson informed her.
'Leaving us women to clean, huh Dawson,' Joey asked. 'How 1950's of you,' she smirked at him.
'I thought so,' he grinned.
'Hang on. Won't movie night be here?' Harm asked.
'Nope, movie night is always held in Dawson's room,' Joey informed him
'Right, so we're going to clean up, and they're going to choose movies?' Mac clarified. 'Hardly seems fair.'
'Yep, I think so. It's women's work,' Harm said, giving her his best flyboy grin.

Potter B and B
Capeside
Joey and Mac stood in the kitchen finishing the dishes.
'Have you and Dawson sorted everything out?' asked Mac.
'Have you and Harm?' Joey retorted.
'I asked you first.'
'Dawson and I. It's complicated.'
'And you think Harm and I aren't? At least the two of you are allowed to be together.'
'All the good that's done us. We've already broken up twice.'
'Third times a charm,' Mac grinned.
'You're not going to give up, are you?'
'Nope.'
'Well I thought you and Harm would be together by now.'
'Harm and I only became available on the weekend. How long have you and Dawson had?'
'We like to drag things out.'
'So when are you going to make your move?'
'When are you going to make yours?'
'Have you ever had the feeling it might not be the right thing to do?'
'I think I'm in touch with that emotion.'
'You and Dawson are meant to be. It's obvious when the two of you are together.'
'Well, have you ever thought that you and Harm becoming available at the same time isn't fate playing it's card?'
'When you do something about you and Dawson, I'll do something about Harm and I.'

Dawson's room
Capeside.
'Is Mac ok after her breakup?' Dawson asked Harm as they flipped through his film collection.
'Yeah. No thanks to Bugme,' Harm replied.
'You care about her don't you?'
'Of course. She's my best friend.'
'You know what I mean. You care about her more than that.'
'How do you know?'
'I've been there.'
'Past tense.'
'I've been there, I am there, I'll always be there.'
'So why haven't you done anything about it?'
'I have twice. Why haven't you?'
'It's complicated.'
'Do you think Joey and I aren't?'
'We're not allowed to be together.'
'Well how do you think we feel. The whole town expects that we will inevitably end up together.'
'So get together.'
'Why don't you take your own advice.'
'I plan to, but not yet.'
'When?'
'When are you going to do something about it?'
'Do something about what?' asked Joey as her and Mac climbed through the window.
'Nothing,' Dawson said to the two of them. Turning to Harm, he added. 'When you do.'
'Aren't you a little old to be climbing through a window?' Harm asked Mac flashing her a flyboy grin.
'This coming from someone whose job involved playing with planes.'
'Bite me.'
'Harm has been spending way too much time with you Joey,' Dawson said looking at her.
'Is that an order or an option?' Mac asked moving closer to Harm.
'Defiantly not an order,' Harm replied looking worried.
'So what are we watching?' asked Joey.
'The X-Files movie,' replied Dawson.
'Dawson, did you let Harm pick the movie?' Mac asked worried.
'Yeah. Is there a problem with that?'
'Big mistake.'
'Why?'
'He doesn't own a TV.'
'Mac, I'm still in the room.'
'I'm talking about you, not to you.'
'Guys. Mac it's alright. You can pick the second movie.' Dawson said.
'So what's it going to be Mac?' Joey asked.
'How about Cabaret?'
'Ah, you do know how that movie ends don't you?' Dawson asked looking at Mac.
* * * * *
The four sat in silence as the last credits rolled onto the screen.
'Poor Sally, she lost Brian and Max,' Mac commented.
The four of them looked at each other each thinking about heir respective situations.
Mac looked at Joey and nodded her head as if to tell Joey she was going to talk to Harm tonight. Joey returned the look and nodded to confirm she would as well then.
'What time is it?' Harm asked.
'10:35 and 15 seconds.' Mac replied without looking at her watch.
Dawson immediately looked at his own watch to see if Mac was right. 'How did you do that Mac?' Dawson asked amazed that she was 100% correct.
'If she tells you let me know. I'm her best friend and she won't even tell me.' Harm replied. 'She's better than having a watch,' he joked. 'So are we going then Joey?'
Joey looked towards Dawson, searching his eyes for what he was feeling. 'Um, actually I might stay for a bit longer, but you guys can go,' she said handing Mac the keys to the B and B.
'Alright,' Harm said standing up and heading for the door.
'Where do you think you're going?' Mac asked.
'Down stairs,' Harm replied.
'It's movie night Harm. There is only one way to get in and one way to get out of here,' said Mac
'I am not going out the window!'
'Chicken!'
'I'm not chicken.'
'Then go out the window.'
'If anyone at Jag finds out about this, you're dead.'
'It's a lot classier. I mean, disappearing out the window and into the night,' Joey said.
'What could be more cinematic than that?' Dawson added.
'Alright, alright. I'll go out the window,' Harm said, as he walked to the window. He turned to Dawson. 'How does now sound to you?'
'Now is great! Move it flyboy,' Mac grinned. 'I'd hate to have to push you out the window.'
'Don't even think about it.'
'Too late. I already did,' she smirked at him.
'Fine then. Lead the way Ninja girl,' he grinned as she climbed out the window.
'See you later.' He said following Mac.
'So,' Dawson looked at Joey.
'We need to talk.' Joey replied.
'How did I know you were going to say that?' he grinned at her.
'Because it's what we do best.'
'Ahhhhhh.' The scream drifted through the window.
'What the hell was that?' Dawson said running to the window and looking out, seeing Harm lying on the ground where he had landed as he fell off the ladder.
'I knew this was a bad idea,' he groaned looking at Mac who was killing herself laughing.
'I'm sorry but Jag is definitely going to hear about this one,' she spluttered.
'Are you ok Harm?' Joey called out the window.
'He's fine, apart from a bruised ego!' Mac grinned.
'Bite me, ninja girl,' he said as Mac helped him off the ground.
'If you say that one more time, I'm going too.' Mac laughed as they started walking back to the B and B. 'I need to tell you something…..' Mac started.
'Do you expect me to listen after you laughed at me,' Harm joked.
'I'm being serious.'
'Ok sorry, go on.'
'What about Sarah for a girl and Harm for a boy?' Mac suggested.
'Ah Mac, are you pregnant?'
'God no! That was a line Harm!'
'A what?'
'A pick up line,' she glared at him. 'Forget I said anything,' she said storming off. 'Men,' she muttered under her breath.
Harm ran to catch up to her, running in front of her, he placed his hands on her shoulders to stop her. Leaning forward, he gave her a gentle kiss on the lips.
