Robbie woke up the next morning elated. When Terrence found him, Robbie was sitting near his window smiling at the glass and bathing in the sun.

"Someone's happy," Terrence said as he walked in the room.

"Guilty as charged," Robbie replied gracefully.

"How'd you get to the windowsill all by yourself, bro?" Terrence sat next to him, and opened the window.

"I just got up and managed to find my way here. I mean it's in the same place in my room as the first day I lived here. Maybe this pristine oomph has something to do with it!"

"Ok, did they give you pain killer's or crack?"

"Whatever bro, there is nothing you can say or do to bring my ecstasy down! I feel like I'm on top of the world!"

"Well we've got a lot to do today, bro," Terrence started.

"Great! We'll be out and about," Robbie humored.

"And you've got to meet with Lane in about two hours," he continued.

"Fantastic! I love the hospital and everyone there. Maybe some more than others," Robbie hinted at his friend.

"And…"

"Keep the news coming, Terrence! You're getting me excited!"

"Well, I'm glad you're in a good mood Rob, because…"

"Because what?" he asked excitedly.

"Robert?! I'm hoooomeee!"

"Is that-" Robbie's voice fell.

"Yup," Terrence grunted.

Donna reached his bedroom and after seeing her boyfriend for the first time in over a month, ran over and threw herself on him.

"Donna? Is that you?"

"Yeah," she said and gave him a peck on the lips. "Did you miss me?"

"Yeah, uh, when did you get here?"

"Just now. I called Terrence to pick me up, I was just taking a call in the car. Robbie, Milan was beautiful! If only you could have gone."

"Donna you know I wouldn't have been able to see anything," Robbie joked.

"Oh yeah, oops! So how are you? Was it hard while I was gone?"

"Not really. I had a lot of company. Lot's of help from the doctors at the hospital."

"Hospital?!" Donna was surprised. "Did you get hurt?"

"No, no, I'm fine," Robbie assured her.

"Robbie's actually undergoing a procedure to get his vision back. He was planning on finishing before you returned," Terrence explained, standing awkwardly at the door. He felt uncomfortable for both himself and Robbie, wishing Donna wasn't there right now.

"You were going to surprise me?! Aw baby that's so sweet!" Donna kissed him again. Robbie half kissed back, her not noticing the lack of enthusiasm or effort he's been putting in to her presence, but was too oblivious to sense any tautness in the room.

"How's the procedure going?" she asked Terrence.

"He's actually got a check up in a few hours, why don't you tag along? You can talk to Lane and he'll catch you up."

"Fantastic! Come on Robbie, we can have breakfast before we head over. Terrence we have time, right?"

Terrence nodded.

"Great, I'll meet you boys in the car!" Donna kissed her boyfriend's cheek and left the room. When she was out the door, Robbie finally exhaled the anxiety that had built inside of him.

"Donna's back," reality suddenly dawned on Robbie.

"Oh yeah, she's back…" Terrence grumbled. He was wondering what Robbie was worried about but brushed it off and helped his friend get ready.

The trio arrived at the hospital just before noon. Tori had spotted them first and paged Lane to come to the desk. Lane arrived and was eager to see Robbie. But just like Tori's reaction, he was surprised to see Donna.

"So doc, I hear Robbie was doing all of this to surprise little ol' me," Donna smiled.

"Yep, Robbie here wanted to regain his vision within a month," Lane explained, "But we've had some slight measures to take so he's not so behind schedule."

To add to the mix, Cat and Sinjin were coming back from rounds and as soon as she spotted Robbie, she grew a smile on her face and started walking towards him. Jade and Trina came from the other end of the corridor, closer to the receptionist's desk, and close enough for Tori to pull Jade aside to ask for assistance.

"I need your help!" Tori whispered.

"What is it?" Jade asked, Trina also attentive.

"That girl is Robbie's girlfriend and by the looks of it, I don't think anyone knows about Robbie and Cat's 'friendship' if you know what I mean. And Miss Happy-go-lucky is on her way to say hi to him when Donna is right there!"

"I'm on it!" Trina said and dashed towards Cat and Sinjin. Jade shrugged, hoping Trina actually had a plan then joined the group with Tori behind her.

"Hey Robbie, here for a check up?" Jade asked cheerfully.

"Oh hi Jade," Robbie was hopeful but tried not to show it. "Yeah, just one last round of tests before the big surgery. Say, where's everyone else? Where's Cat?"

"Oh they're doing rounds right now, but let's get going Robbie, don't want to keep the team waiting," Lane picked up the situation and helped Jade out.

"Uh Terrence, Donna. Just relax in the lobby with Tori, Jade come with me," Lane ordered.

Meanwhile, Trina had distracted Cat from reaching the group by asking her a random question that she didn't really care to answer.

"So I was thinking of getting highlights but I don't know if I want blonde streaks again, maybe something bold like blue or green? What do you think?"

"I don't know, Trina, anything really," she was standing impatiently.

"I think you should dye your entire head green. Like Clementine in Eternal Sunshine," Sinjin replied.

"No that's too much," Trina replied.

"Trina?"

"Yeah Cat?"

"What's the point of this question?" Cat asked as she began walking towards the group.

Trina glimpsed ahead and saw everyone was starting to leave. Still, she didn't want Cat to even reach them so she did something capricious, tripped Sinjin, who in turn stumbled over Cat, and scurried away.

"Ow! What the chizz?" Sinjin hollered.

"Trina are you crazy?!" Cat added.

Sinjin helped Cat up just as Jade, Lane and Robbie entered the lab. Tori, Donna, and Terrence heard the commotion and glanced over at Cat, Sinjin, and a runaway Trina. Tori shook her head at Trina's ploy to delay Cat from arriving at the desk, but was thankful that it somehow worked.

"Hey guys," Sinjin grumbled, smoothing his scrubs.

"Terrence, hey! Where's Robbie?" Cat asked as he gave her a hug.

Cat noticed the girl sitting next to Terrence; she seemed familiar but Cat couldn't put her finger on where or how she knew her.

"He just went inside to run some tests with Jade and Lane. Uh…" Tori said as she gestured for Terrence to help her out.

"Hey Cat, uh, I don't think you've met Donna, Robbie's girlfriend."

A/N: Oh yes, she's back! Donna's back. Get ready because from here on out, it's going to be a bumpy ride. And we're not even halfway yet :)
