"Opps, sorry." Was all they said as they closed the door with huge smiles on thier faces.
"Get back in here you two." Dawson says just as the door is about to close.
They walk back in with true hope in thier eyes. Could it be that thier mom and dad were going to get back together, could all of thier dreams be coming true. Could God really have blessed the broken road that lead them to him?
"So tell me guys, what would you think if me and your mom gave this another try?" Dawson asks them
They only stare at him for a few minutes before Sara answers. "We would like that Dad-- i mean Dawson."
"Sara it is ok, you can call me dad if you want, remember i am."
"Sweety it is ok, i know it is all new to you, but he is your dad." Joey tells her daughter.
"So this means we can call you dad, and spend time with you and do all the things a normal family does?" Mitch asks.
"Of course we can, we can do what ever you want to, as long as it is in L.A. . At least for a little while, remember i am doing a movie with my kids."
"Mom is it ok if we stay in L.A. for a little while longer?" Sara asks.
"Yeah mom please can we?" Mitch adds.
"What do you say mom, can you guys stay for a few more days?" Dawson asks.
"I'm not sure i can get the time off of work, but if i can then yes we can stay for a little while longer. If i can't then maybe your dad would like for you two too stay with him for a couple of weeks while i go back and work." Joey says.
"Can we DAD?" both kids ask at the same time.
"Well of course you can as long as you want too." Dawson says.
"Cool, i have always wanted to see the sights here in L.A." Mitch says.
"You know i have alot of questions for you daw...dad. Maybe we can spend some time and talk as well." Sara says
"Of course we can, and i will answer any question you have to the best of my ability, but for now why don't you kids go enjoy the afternoon while me and your mom talk."
"Ok dad, what time should we be back here?"
"Tara will bring you back in an hour or two, why don't you two go shopping she can show you where. Have fun and enjoy the day." Dawson tells them.
"Shopping you mean for new clothes and things?" Both ask at the same time.
"Yes and anything else you may need. Tara please take care of the bill for me, you have the company card."
"Dawson please don't spoil them, i know it is all new but we have limits." Joey pleads
"Go on guys and let me and mom talk have fun." Dawson kisses each one on the forehead and hugs them as they leave with Tara.
"Ok now that the kids are gone lets talk about the US thing." Joey says.
"What about it?"
"Did you mean it?"
"Yes Joey i meant every word of it, i want you back in my life and as more than just friends. I want us to be a family, i want you and the kids to have everything you didn't while you were in hiding. Your the reason i have all of this, it is because you left all those years ago that i have become the person i am today. So you should be able to enjoy it with me as should the kids. So what do you say, move here live with me find a job here and lets build our family together." Dawson pleads with her.
"Oh Dawson you have know idea how long i have waited to hear those words, but are you really sure you can forgive me for what i did. Are these your true feelings or are these feeling coming from wanting to know your kids?"
"I can answer that question for you Joey." A voice she hasn't heard in years says from the door way.
She slowly turns around to see Pacey standing in the door with a big smile on his face. She can't believe how much he has changed, her old friend from the creek, looks more like a man than she ever thought he would.
"Pacey, hi how are you, long time no see huh."
"Hi Jo, and as for your question, well i am in shock about the kids but as for him." He points to Dawson. "I can tell you that he is still in love with you and would do anything to have you back." He says as he walks in and hugs her.
"You see even Pacey knows how i feel. So what do you say, i mean if you need a little bit of time i will understand. I just want you to be happy." Dawson tells her.
"Yeah Jo that is all any of us want for you. Is for you to be happy. I have a suggestion for you, why don't you take the kids and go vist Bessie. Maybe that will help you make up your mind and it will give you time to catch up with your family. There have been some big changes in that department as well." Pacey says
"But we promised the kids they could stay here and spend time with their dad." Joey objects
"I think they will understand. Besides after you spend some time out there they can come back here to do that." Pacey tells her.
