When Buffy walked downstairs the next morning, after spending half the night searching for Tomorrow with Willow and Cordelia, she was surprised to see Tomorrow cooking breakfast in the kitchen. "Morning."

"Morning mom. I made breakfast."

"I see."

"Yeah all sorts of food made by a sincerely sorry daughter who feels terrible about yesterday."

"It's not fair, you inherited my ability for no one to stay mad at you."

"So you forgive me."

"Of course, but one question."

"Anything"

"Did you sing 'It's my party' to Lorne, because that I would have liked to have seen?"

^^^^^^^^^^^^

"Morning." Willow said disturbing Tomorrow and Buffy from their conversation at the table. "I brought in the mail. Hey look two letters for Tomorrow that almost never happens."

"It's my grades," Tomorrow screamed ripping open the envelope. "I passed Spanish!!!!"

"What's the other letter?" Buffy asked.

"It's from Connor. That's weird we write each other notes sometimes, but usually we don't give them to each other till the next time we see each other."

"I think he was pretty hurt about last night." Willow observed. "He didn't even go out searching with us."

"Do you guys mind if I go read this in my room?" Tomorrow asked, "I promise I won't slip out my window."

"Go ahead, your dad won't be up for awhile, then you have to answer to him according to the bits and pieces of your two's conversation that he related to me when I got home." Buffy smiled.

"Yeah we'll explain more about that when we figure it out ourselves." Tomorrow stated.

"Hey where's your trade mark crucifix?" Willow asked Tomorrow.

"Oh it was burning my neck this morning. I'm not sure if it was the actual crucifix or the holy water that I dip it in but either way, I'm not going to ever be able to wear it again." Tomorrow explained.

"Don't worry honey, your dad and I will help you through this. I'm not saying it will be easy, but we're in it together. Now go read your letter and I hate to put you under house arrest, but let's not test the sun factor yet." Buffy said as her daughter ran up the stairs.

^^^^^^^^^

Tomorrow stretched out on her bed began to read. 'Tom, I know you don't want to worry about me so I'm writing this letter instead of coming over and talking. I can't believe you're actually developing powers! It is so unfair. I wish I could be there to help you, but since I can't, read this letter to remember on the darkest night, when your dad has been pushing you really hard that there is someone out there who cares and is hoping that someday he can be a part of your life again. Connor' Tomorrow quickly ran down stairs.

"Aunt Willow if I write a letter can you give it to Connor?"
