... as she shuffled up the stairs.

"No, I'm not," Larry said, eyeing the empty glass on the table. "It was waiting for us when we got back. Penny, did you put it there? That was thoughtful of you, if you've noticed how she likes staying hydrated."

Penny shook her head no, but her father was already on his way to the living room to collect his car keys and didn't see her. Penny decided she might as well let him think she had done it anyway - it was a nice gesture, after all.

"I've been trying to get your father to drink more water, too, you know," Jan said a few minutes later as she came down the stairs. "All sorts of health benefits, and so what if you need the bathroom more often? He'll be waiting for me to go anyway."

"I agree completely," said Penny, hoping it wasn't too much information for Joe. "Eight glasses a day!"

Joe showed no interest one way or another, and the ride into town was agreeable for all. They were seated at a table with a view of the waterfront, and ordered their drinks. Penny had just enough time to peruse the menu before Jan spoke up. "I don't know what's got into me, but I'm afraid I need to go to the ladies' again. Penny?"

"Let's hope I just drank that last glass of water too fast," Jan said. "Still, it was kind of your father to set it out there for me."

Penny saw no need to tell Jan he hadn't done so.

When they returned to their table, Larry was regaling Joe with tales of concerts he'd been to back in the eighties. Penny was just as glad to have missed that, and relieved that the talk hadn't been of her as a little girl. To her pleasant surprise, it remained that way throughout the meal. The herb-encrusted snapper was great, and seeing Dad happy again with Jan was even better. Joe's occasional adoring look at her was best of all.

When they were finished, there was still time to kill before the movie. "Want dessert?" Dad asked them all.

"I shouldn't," Penny said reflexively, though the key lime pie she'd spotted on other people's tables looked wonderful.

"Sure you should, if you want it," Joe said. "I don't know about you, but I've been thinking about their key lime pie from the moment we came in."

"Me too!" Penny laughed and forgot herself long enough to lay her head on his shoulder as if they were alone. "Sorry!" she said an instant later, and sat back up ...
