Hey everyone, I'm back from my trip! I'm sorry it took me awhile, major things came up but now I'm ready to write new chapters! Now before we begin anything let's find our winner from my small game. PerryRocks-Wolf Warrior, you have guess right, Boo was humming 'If I didn't have you' and now the prize for you and everyone is a scene from the story drawed by me. I actually did an outline while on my trip so I'm almost done. Lightfaith606 you were really close but since 'You got a friend in me' is a Pixar song I will mention it somewhere in the story.

Another note, I'm really sorry for grammar errors and past tense problems. I do have a spell checker and I always double check my chapters, heck I even let my mom read it and check it! It's been a while since I wrote a fan fic so it's not going to be 100% perfect, but I'm really grateful that you still enjoy it. So now I'll shut up and let you read the chapter, let's go!

Disclaimer: Monsters inc is Pixars' not mine, annnnd that's it…...yeeeeaaaahh…OK ENJOY! XD


One week later…

Lisa was sleeping on the couch again while Boo was lying in her room, bored out of her mind. She could play with her toys, she could play with Snowy or even read a book, if only she knew how to read the big words, but she couldn't bring herself to do anything.

Boo hasn't seen Mike or Sully in days. She waited for them for days and nights but they never showed up. She wondered if they were okay. She was also hoping the same thing for Randall. Boo couldn't stop thinking about him, she remembered seeing the bandages on his body. She hopes that he wasn't hurt too much.

A sudden knock startled Boo. She sat up and looked at her closet door, a second knock got her out of bed. She opened the door and sees a familiar face.

"Kitty!" cried Boo as she hugged her furry friend.

"Hey Boo" said Sulley hugging her back, "listen, I got good news."

Boo beamed at Sully and skipped back to her bed wanting to hear the news.

"What is it, what is it?" she asked repeatly.

"Okay I'll tell you" smiled Sully. He could tell that Boo couldn't hold her excitement. He didn't want to explain to her all the details so he gave her the short version.

"So the CDA asked Randall some questions…"

"Uh huh…"

"He answered them all…"

"And..."

"And Roz said ok, he's now working back in the factory."

Boo squealed with joy and jumped off her bed. "What are we waiting for let's go see him!" she said as she was about to leave her room but stopped in her tracks.

"Oh wait we need a gift Kitty."

"Huh?" asked Sulley.

"A gift. You can't welcome home someone without a welcome home gift." To Boo, it made sense. She was taught by her parents that giving a gift means you're thinking about them and showing them you care.

"Um, I don't know Boo." Sulley thought it was sweet of her but knowing Randall, he isn't the kind of monster who likes gifts.

"Oh c'mon let's give it a try" said Boo in a cheerful mood.

Sulley sighed. "Well, all right. You can make a gift I'll come back to get you later."

"You going to another meeting?" asked Boo.

"Yeah but I'll come back, if not Mike will come."

"Okay" Boo then hugs Sully's leg, "Thank you Kitty."

Sulley picks up Boo and gives her a bear hug, causing her to giggle, "Your welcome Boo."

After he left Boo walked to her boxes of arts and crafts. She takes boxes of crayons, stacks of paper, paint and stickers. She takes all of it to her small table and sits down to think of a gift. What could be a perfect gift? She can't make anything big, so what could she make that's small. Then like a light blot flashing she got an idea.

"I know, I can make him a card!"

She took out a color sheet and folds it, decorating it with flowers and hearts stickers. She draws a picture of Randall on the front. Now she had to write something. She wasn't sure what to say besides 'welcome home'; she can wish him good luck for his new job. That's a nice thing to say. She wasn't a very good writer since she can't spell correctly yet, but she tried the best she can. It took her a few minutes to finish her card.

After she was done she put on her monster costume, she struggled putting the arms on but managed to it by herself. A knock was heard and Boo skipped her way to the door.

"Kitty?"

"Nope, it's the delivery boy here to make a delivery."

Boo giggled, knowing who it was, "Mike Wazowski!"

"That's right kiddo, you ready?"

"Yup" Boo grabbed her card and walked out of her room. She holds Mike's hand as they walked together in the hallways of the factory. They go over rules that were made for Boo whenever she comes to visit.

"All right now what's the number one rule Boo?"

"If I get lost and run into strangers I roar like a monster."

"Good and you are…?"

"I'm Sulley's cousin's daughter's sister."

"Actually its cousin's sister's daughter but you were close."

As they continue to walk, Mike noticeed the card in Boo's hand. "What cha'got there?"

Boo smiled to Mike, "Kitty told me Randall's back in Monsters Inc so I made him a welcome home card."

"Oh "said Mike. He didn't say anything else for moment. When he heard that Randall was working again, he wasn't so thrilled about it.

They continue to walk almost reaching to the Laugh Floor. The Laugh Floor hasn't changed that much, there were still colorful balloons, props, paper signs all over. All the monsters are busy getting ready for their shifts of the day. It was then Mike spoke up, "Hey Boo, you should really be careful."

"Be careful of what?" she asked.

"Be careful with Randall."

The girl titled her head, "Why?"

"Because you know Randall isn't a nice guy. He will say things to hurt you and he'll ignore you, he's not gonna change instantly."

"I know he can be grumpy" said Boo, "But that doesn't mean we shouldn't try."

"Yeah but still, you can't trust him." Mike knows that he made that promise with Sulley, but it still bothered him. The idea of Randall in the same room with Boo made him uncomfortable. What if he tried to kidnapped her or worse? Maybe he was just over thinking things. He just needs to keep an eye on Boo.

"I promise to be careful Mike" said Boo. She knows why he's saying all of this, to protect her. She understands, but she wishes Mike would just give Randall another chance. She would like to ask both of them why they stop being friends, but for some reason she's afraid to ask. Boo doesn't know why, she thought maybe it would upset Mike or bring up any bad memories. She will ask when the time is right she thought to herself. They made it to Mike's station where he starts looking through the files.

"So how many points you have?" asked Boo.

"You mean the Laugh board, let's see. I think I have about 32,013 points."

"Whoa that's a lot!" said Boo in amazement.

Mike put his hands on his hips and smiled with a triumph smile, "Well you gotta be the best of the best."

A whistle was blown and Jerry came in with a pair of headphones place on his head, "Okay monsters let's get started!"

"Okay Boo, after my shift we'll find lizard boy."

She nodded and watcheed him using a card to bring a door to his station.

Mike grabbed his microphone and a funny hat getting ready to make kids laugh. Other monsters did the same, activating the doors and gathering their props. They waited for the signal.

Jerry counted down, "We are on in seven, six, five, four, three, two, and one!"

Another whistle was blown, lighting up a green sign that read 'Be Funny'. And off they went, monsters coming in out of their doors and filling up their canisters. Boo can hear the laughter of other children from the doors. She cheered for Mike as his points went higher. She looked to see how the other monsters were doing, while doing that she sees a familiar slender figure passing by down the hallway. Boo smiled knowing that it was Randall.

She wanted to follow him but Mike said after his shift. She turned to see Mike heading to a new door. He'll be in there for a while, so she decided to take matters into her own hands. She walked her way out of the Laugh Floor, the monsters let her pass by and some didn't even notice her.

Boo looked around to see where Randall has gone. She walked down the gray and light blue hallway looking left to right, passing by rooms and other hallways. Boo looked up noticing a hanging sign that reads 'break room'. She stopped and looked in the room and spotted Randall.

His back was turn to her and seem to be making coffee for himself. She quietly backs away and hides against the wall. She thought it would be easy to approach him but now, she was nervous. It wasn't because she was scared of him; she wanted to do this right and she really doesn't want to mess anything up. Boo glanced down at her card and takes a deep breath.

"It's okay, you can do this. Just say hi. That's all, just say hi" she whispered to herself.

She sneezed very loudly.

Her eyes went wide and pulled her hoodie tightly, covering her face as if it will help her hide from view. Boo knew that he heard her, he was going to see her any minute. Nothing happened. Boo let's go of her hoodie and peeks in the break room. Randall wasn't in the room, it was strange to her because she didn't hear him leave or even saw him. Then she remembered he could turn invisible.

Boo looked at the gray wall noticing a shadow forming, something was behind her. She quickly shifted around and gasped, startled that it was Randall. His four arms were folded and he looks at her speciously, narrowing his eyes.

"Uh….hi" Boo greeted smiling sheepishly.

Randall still frowns at her, "What are you doing" he demands more than asking.

"Oh, um, you know just exploring…" said Boo who getting more nervous.

Randall simply rolled his eyes and walked back in the break room. Boo curiously follows him, her nervousness disappearing. Randall turned on the small machine and waits for his coffee to finish. He keeps his eyes on the little girl not knowing why she was standing beside him. He turns his attention back to the machine, trying to ignore her presence.

Boo looked up to him, "What cha' doing?"

"Making coffee" said Randall who didn't look at her this time.

"Can I have some?" Boo asked sweetly.

"No, now go away" said Randall as he pours the coffee into his cup and added sugar. He lightly pushed Boo out of his way, leaving the room. Boo on the other hand follows him, holding her card tightly so she won't lose it. She sees that Randall is not covered in bandage, so that meant he was better now.

"How are you're boo-boos'?" she asked.

Randall stops sipping his coffee and gave Boo a weird glance, "My what?"

"Your cuts", Boo corrected, "Are they all better?"

He hesitated to answer, "Uh…yes."

"That's good" said Boo, "So, what are you doing now?"

Randall was getting irritated, "What do you mean?"

"Your new job, what's it like?"

"It's none of your business" said Randall grouchy.

Boo furrowed her brows, "Why won't you tell me?"

"Are you deaf kid, I told you why."

"My name is not kid, it's Mary but you can call me Boo if you want" said Boo who smiled up to the lizard.

Randall groaned in annoyance and turned to the girl, "Okay first of all I don't care. Second of all why are you here?"

The four year old looked a little hurt but she shook it away and looked at Randall in the eyes. "Well, I'm here to see you."

Randall raised a brow and his fronds, he wasn't sure if he heard that right. "So you're here…to see me?"

"Uh-huh' nodded Boo.

"Did Sullivan put you up to this?" He didn't believe it. It had to be some kind of a trick. Two years ago he put this kid in so much danger, he scared her, and then she stood up to him by pulling on his head. Now she was smiling at him and asking him questions, it just didn't made sense to him.

The little girl looked at him with a confused face, "No, Kitty told me you are working again and I made you this." Boo held out her hand-made welcome home card to Randall.

Randall narrowed his eyes at the card, "What is this?"

"It's a gift, for you" said Boo handing him the card.

Randall takes the card, although he had a difficult time when it got stuck on Boo's fake tentacle hand. She nervously giggled and apologized. Randall looks at the drawing of him, it was childlike the drawing but he was somewhat impressed by it. He flips it open and reads what's inside; there were a few misspell words.

Deer Randal,

Welcome home! Im glad your wroking again. I dont know what your job is butt I wish you goood luck. I hope we can be firends. Have a nice Montserly day!

Love Boo

"Do you like it?" asked Boo with a hopeful gleam in her eyes.

Randall honestly didn't know what to think or what to say. Despite the misspell words and the many stickers, he felt touched that this kid went all the trouble to give him this paper card. But he wasn't going to let himself go soft over a card. He wasn't going to let this kid get to him like she did to Sullivan. He puts on a deadpan expression.

"It's nice" Randall said blankly as he turned to walk away.

"Really?" Boo said excitedly and follows him again, "So does that mean were friends?"

Randall glares at her, "No, monsters and humans can't be friends."

He wasn't sure if monsters still believe human kids were toxic or not but he sees no reason to be friends with her. Besides who want to be friends with a monster like him?

"That's not true. I'm friends with Kitty and Mike and Celia" said Boo cheerfully, "And I can tell you and I will be the best of chums."

He stoppted. That sentence sounded familiar to him. He had a sudden flashback of his younger days, the days when he was starting at collage. He remembered saying the same sentence to Wazowski, he was really happy on that day.

Boo noticed Randall stop and staring blankly at the ground. She was a little concerned and she walked up in front of him, trying to look at his face. "Randall? You okay?" she asked.

The purple lizard blinks and sees the child standing a little too close to him.

"I'm fine!" he snaps but calmed himself down, "I'm fine…"

"O-okay" said Boo who was surprised by the outburst. She wasn't sure what else to say but then she remembered Mike. He must have noticed by now that she was gone. "I've gotta go, Mike is probably looking for me."

Boo starts to walk away but stops and turned to the lizard, "I'm happy you like my card Randall, see ya." And then she runs off which causes her to trip but immediately gets back on her feet and runs off again.

Randall watcheed her go, he looked at the card not knowing what to do with it. He wasn't planning on keeping it but then again…he felt a small tug in his heart.

"What am I doing?" he thought to himself. He sees her as a nuisance and nothing more. It just what he thought before, he sees no reason or any interest of being her friend. It's all her and Sullivan's fault that the factory changed, making kids laugh, monsters making fools of themselves, it just disgusted him. He finishes his coffee and throws the cup along with the card in the trash bin. He opened the door heads back to work, in the mailing room.


"You got a friend in me, you got a friend in me"

Boo has been singing a tune ever since she got home. Lisa was still asleep but she didn't mind. She was now in her room happily coloring and drawing a new picture.

"When the road looks rough ahead and your miles and miles from your nice warm bed."

When Boo got back to the Laugh Floor, she was right that Mike was looking for her and he was freaking out. When she told him where she was he freaked out more, which she thought was funny. Although Mike was upset, he was glad that she was still okay, but Boo was more than glad. She was happy that she went on her own, she never did anything by herself like a grown up. What may her day even better was that Randall liked her card so she was ten times happy.

"You just remember what your old pal said, for you got a friend in me."

Boo was finishing a drawing of herself with Sully, Mike, and Celia. She added Randall in the picture too; all five of them were holding hands and smiling. Boo climb her bed and taped her drawing to the wall, she smiled admiring her work.

"Yeah you got a friend in me!"

She heard her closet door opening.

"Hey Boo" greeted Sulley.

"Hi Kitty " Boo greeted back, "How did the meeting go?"

"Oh you know, boring" Sulley said in a deep goofy voice. He knows how to make Boo laugh and he lovesed hearing her laugh.

"Anyway I heard what happened today."

"Mike told you didn't he?" asked Boo.

"You shouldn't have run off from him Boo" said Sulley in an almost stern manner.

"I said I was sorry" said Boo who smiling innocently to her friend.

Sulley just chuckled and patted her on the head, no matter how hard he tried to be stern like a parent should it didn't last long, she's just too cute to be upset at.

"So how did it go Boo?"

"Well I saw Randall and we talked for a while and I gave him my card and he liked it!"

"Wow really?" Sulley raised his eye brows in surprise.

"Yup. But he's still a grumpy lizard" she said with a giggle. She turned to look at her drawing she hung up. Seeing a smiling Randall and holding her hand gives her hope that he will change. Boo also hoped that one day Randall will atop being angry at her friends and they could all be pals again, especially Mike.

"You know Kitty" Boo said with a confident tone, "I think we're off to a good start."
