OPERATION REUNITED

...🛶...

MAKING their way into Entre Nous, Gail led the girls with a smile as the Maître D' greeted them "Good evening, Mrs. Leery, what a delight. If you don't mind waiting at the bar, I'll have a table ready for you momentarily."

"Thank you." Gail returned the smile as the three headed for the bar "I'm going to pop to the ladies room, be right back."

"Two cokes, please." Heather requested with a smile as she and Jen leant against the bar top only for her eyes to widen as a familiar brunette appeared beside her "Joey? What—?"

"What are you guys doing here?"

Jen's eyebrow's furrowed "There was an incident with the pot roast so Gail's treating us to dinner. What are you doing here?"

Heather's eyes widened in realisation "Dawson brought you here."

"Yup." Joey sighed "And guess who we bumped into?"

Heather's eyebrows furrowed as she looked across the restaurant spotting her brother sitting with none other than their father "Oh."

"Miss. Kennedy is in the ladies room." The Potter girl explained.

The Leery girl groaned "Oh no."

"Not good... or maybe not so bad." Jen suddenly smirked "I have an idea."

...🛶...

PLAN in motion, Heather made her way over to Dawson and her father who smiled in surprise as she took a seat "Heather. You look beautiful, sweetheart."

"Thanks, I uh, I'm here with—"

"Your mother." Mitch nodded "I saw her."

Dawson raised an eyebrow "And you're not stressing out about this?"

"Why should I stress out about it?" Mitch shrugged "She's seen me with Nicole before."

Heather sighed at the thought. Gail had been devastated to see her husband walk into the wedding with another woman on his arms. Her children's teacher at that.

"Dad, wether you choose to ignore it or not, mom is moments away from deciding whether or not to leave Capeside indefinitely."

Mitch shook his head at Dawson's words "Well, her decision to leave or not has nothing to do with me."
