Dawson is talking with Sara when Joey and Mitch walk in, so doesn't notice right away. As he is looking over the contracts he asks them to sit down not looking up.

"Thank you." Both Joey and Mitch say.

At the sound of her voice Dawson's heart skips a beat. That voice I know that voice can it be. He is scared to look up. Could that be the voice of the woman he has been looking for since Capeside. He slowly raises his head and looks a very nervous Joey Potter in the eyes.

"Well if it isn't Joey Potter." He says

"Anderson now."She corrects him.

"Now I know why I couldn't find you, you got married or changed your name." He says a little dejected.

"I changed my name, so you couldn't find me Dawson. I had to let you go off and lead you life, if I had stayed it might have ruined your chances at doing what you have done so far." She tell him.

Dawson's face takens on a new understanding. His eyes lite up with excitment and anger. " So Dose that mean what i think it means?" He asks with anger dripping from his lips.

Sara and Mitch have been watching and listening to the conversation. It hits them at the same time.

"You're our father aren't you. He is isn't he mom."

"Yes Joey Anderson, tell us am I the father?" Dawson asks with hope and anger.

Joey can't make eye contact with any of them. She keeps her eyes down cast as she barely wispers. "Yes , Dawson you are."

"So when you left me, your family and Capeside, it was because of them? You thought you were saving me and my life by leaving? What you don't realize is that you also took away thriteen years from us. How could you walk away like that?"

"Dawson, you have to understand. I knew that if I stayed you wouldn't have done the things you have. You would have stayed in Capeside, I know you Dawson. It would have been sweet, but in the end you would have resented having to stay with us. I wanted You to know your kids, I did. I wanted them to know you too. I would tell them little things about you, never revealing who you really where. I wanted them to get to know you I did. That is why i agreed to allow them to come here. I wanted to call you and prepare you, but i didn't know how. Dawson Leery, I know it is a little late but, I want you to meet your children, this is Sara Lillian Anderson your daughter, and her twin brother Mitchell Allen Anderson." She says with tears running down her face. " Sara , Mitch this is your father Dawson Leery."

" He really is our father?" They both ask.

"Yes sweethearts he is." Joey tells them.

" Well Sara, Mitch, it seems we have alot more in common than it first seemed." Dawson tells them still with anger in his voice. He can't believe that she has done this to him now. Why not earlier, why wait till they were this old. What was he suppose to do now? He couldn't just all of a sudden step into thier lives, like he was really thier father. Sure they shared his blood but they weren't his kids not really. That was how he decided to play it.

"Under the circumstances i think i need to find a couple more actors for my movie. It was nice of you coming in, and nice to meet you. I shall be in touch." He tells them.

Sara and Mitch are shocked and terified all at once. How can he act this way? Joey knows what Dawson is doing, she can still read him. Maybe not as well as she use to but enough. "Ok Dawson, you have our number please feel free to call any time." She gets up too leave, as the kids follow suit. They both have a decidedly hallow look on there face, a fact that niether Dawson or Joey misses. He knows he has to allow them to go back to the life they had he can't waver on this.

As they are about to leave Sara turns back to him and asks.

"Dawson-- um-- do you think--maybe i could--um-- have a hug?"
