*Sorry for the sadness in the last note! I will try not to make the last three that sad! Chapter 7 for you guys!*

Buzz looked up from the note, a very somber look on his face. Jessie looked at the others and then back at Buzz.

"Buzz? Hey, are you alright?" She said, placing a hand on his shoulder. He jerked away, crumpled up the note and kicked it across the bed.

"Why? Why didn't he say anything? Buzz yelled. He was more lost than I thought! He was losing everything and I didn't, I didn't even see it! I knew he was feeling neglected and forgotten, I saw that, but I didn't, I mean how could I have not seen..."

"Buzz, it's not your fault."

"It is, Jess. It is completely my fault! He was hurting, both mentally and emotionally, I knew that, yet I did nothing to help him! He was losing everything that made him who he was and I did nothing!"

"That is not true!"

"It is true! I should've tried harder to get his mind on something else, or pressure him into talking to me, but no! I just stood there and did absolutely nothing to help him! I'm his best friend and I failed him." The cowgirl slapped him.

"You take that back right now, mister! Jessie yelled. You sir, did not fail him. You were there, supporting him when he needed it, we both were. The mental stuff we couldn't control, but we tried to support him with the emotional stuff. Do you recall those nights where the three of us would go up to the roof or out to the garden and just sit? We didn't have to say or do anything, but Woody knew we were there for him. There were a few times I would listen in to conversations you two had about our future with Bonnie, and you would make a notion that we'd figure it out. You were there for him, Buzz, there was no doubt about that at all."

"I just wish I had done a little bit more." The space ranger said sadly.

"Well, in a way, you did, towards the end. By giving him that pep talk on the carousel? You told him to go with her, remember?" Buzz sighed.

"Wait, what?" Buttercup said.

"When was this?" Trixie asked.

"It was before all of you made it up to the canopy. Buzz said, looking up. Woody was ready to say goodbye to Bo for a second time. I knew by the look on his face that he couldn't handle saying goodbye to her again. Seeing him hold her in his arms, I knew what was best for him. She was his new purpose, working together helping toys. So I told him to listen to his inner voice."

"See? You gave him that push and helped him in the end. Jessie said, grabbing his hand. So I suggest you stop feeling guilty because you are one of the best friends Woody has ever had. I know he will never forget that." She pinched his nose and then kissed his cheek. "Are you okay now? There are still three more notes to read."

"Yeah, Yeah I'm good. Hand me the next one, please." She handed him the next note. "April 22nd. Hey, isn't that Andy's birthday?"

"Yes it is. The first birthday Woody spent without Andy."

*I updated the description of this story to have it set three months after TS4 because my other post TS4 story, great river rescue was set a year after TS4. The two stories won't tie together, but I will have a surprise for you guys at the end, so wait for that!*
