Miranda wakes to the sound of knocking on wood. "Come in" she yells sleepily, thinking it's just the girls coming to tell her good morning. She hears soft footsteps approach her and someone clear their throat. She opens her eyes and see Andrea standing over her bed with a smirk on her face.

"Good morning Miranda."

Miranda quickly sits up and grabs the blanket to cover up with, "um good morning Andrea. I forgot I was here and was expecting my girls to be wanting to come in. I apologize."

"No need. I understand not being awake in the morning. Especially after not getting a lot of sleep. Now I have let you sleep as long as you can, we need to get going or we will be very late to work."

Miranda nods. "I'll will be down in a few minutes."

"Very well." Andrea turns and walks out of the room and closes the door behind her.

Miranda lets out a sigh and slouches back into the bed. She lays there for a minute then gets out of bed to go to the bathroom and make use of the shower even though she has to put dirty clothes on after. Her hair was in desperate need of taming.

About fifteen minutes later, Miranda emerges from the guest bedroom and makes her way downstairs. She calls out for Andrea, who answers quickly that she was in the kitchen. Miranda walks into the kitchen and was surprised to see Andrea in an apron making breakfast. "I don't know what you normally have for breakfast, but after a few glasses of wine I normally turn to carbs. So I made blueberry pancakes. I also have fruit, cereal, and oatmeal. What is you poison?"

"Those pancakes smell delicious. I will have two of those and an apple, if you don't mind." Miranda is amazed to see Andrea so relaxed.

"Very well." Andrea makes Miranda a plate. She then goes to fix herself a cup of coffee. "Would you like something to drink? Coffee, water, juice?"

"Coffee please."

Andrea fixes another cup of coffee. "I'm afraid you will have to drink it black because I am currently out of milk."

"Black is fine. It will help me wake up." Miranda is very weirded out by the conversation that is taking place.

After that no more questions were asked, Andrea drinks her coffee and reads the newspaper while Miranda tries to eat her breakfast as quickly as she can. Once she was done Miranda moves to put the plate in the sink.

"You don't have to wash it." Andrea says without looking up from the newspaper. "Are you ready?"

"Yes I am."

Andrea folds up the newspaper, "very well. Roy is waiting for us outside." Andrea gets up and walks towards the front door. She steps into a different room then emerges with the Book in hand and resumes walking to the front door. Miranda is close behind her, they both get into the car. "We are taking Miranda home Roy."

"Yes Andrea. What is the address?" Miranda quickly gives him her address and some general directions to her home. She quickly glances over to Andrea who is typing away on her phone. 'She is probably so behind in work. I will have to make this up to her. She has been so nice… Why does she have such a bad reputation?' Miranda is stuck in thought the whole drive.

Once they arrive at her home Andrea speaks up. "Do hurry Miranda. I don't like being this late." With that comment ringing in her head Miranda runs into her house and gets dressed in record time. As soon as she was done she rushes back out to Andrea's car. Miranda barely had her door shut before Roy was pulling out into the street. Again the whole car ride Andrea was typing away on her phone and Miranda was lost in thought.

Andy quickly got out of the car and practically runs into the building. She was determined not to be nice to Miranda today. She had already past her boundary line a ways back but soon that will be fixed. 'She is your assistant. Nothing more. You will not treat her different Sachs!' She knew Miranda was right behind her so once they got to the elevator she stepped in and quickly glared at Miranda who was walking in the elevator too. "And just what do you think you are doing?"

Miranda's' step faltered, "oh um I was getting in the elevator." Andy raised an eyebrow. Miranda slowly backed out of the elevator with a frown. Andy stared her in the eye till the door closed.

Once the doors were closed Andy slumped against the wall 'that was harder than it should have been. It hurt a little bit too. She looked… I don't know how she looked but I don't want her too look like that.' She shook her head, "No. You are Andrea Sachs! You are nice to no one and don't care about anyone. Get it together." She straightened her posture and closed off all thoughts about Miranda.

Miranda was standing outside the elevator doors with her mouth hanging open. Her mind was racing a mile a minute. 'She was so nice this morning. She is your boss. I know I'm not special. She was asking questions about me though. She kicked you out of the elevator. She let me stay the night. She literally just glared at you. I guess you know why she has a bad reputation' Her brain was arguing back and forth about Andrea for a good ten minutes. Her phone started ringing and it broke her out of the shock. It was Emily.

"Where are you!" Emily practically yelled in the phone.

"I'm waiting for the elevator. I will be up soon." Miranda said quietly.

"Hurry up! Andrea is in a mood." With that Emily hung up. Miranda sighed and pushed the button to call the elevator. Today was going to be rough.

"Emily!" Andy yelled from her office. "I need coffee five minutes ago!" Andy wasn't in a good mood. She couldn't get over how Miranda's eyes looked this morning. She knew she wasn't being reasonable but she couldn't help it this was how she worked things out, yelling at people. Andy has been ignoring Miranda the whole day. She felt a little bad for Emily, she was basically being two assistants instead of one, but she knew Emily also thrived from the attention.

After the sixth person ran out of her office crying, Andy got a visit from Nigel. He walked in and closed the door. "Alright, what's wrong?"

Andy glared at him. "Excuse me?" She practically growled.

"What is wrong? I haven't seen you this bad since that one year production got the release date wrong." Nigel said with a frown, "now I know nothing major is happening with the magazine, so again, what's wrong?"

"Nothing I can't handle Nigel. Thank you for your concern." Andy says with a roll of her eyes.

"Of course Andrea." Nigel says back with just as much sass. He turns and walks out of the office closing the door behind him. "She is in such a mood today."

"You have no idea." Emily says with a slight whine. "Something must have happened. Knowing Andrea it could have been anything."

Miranda sitting quietly at her desk trying not to think that Andrea's horrible mood was all her fault. With a grimace she turns back to her emails hoping that the day would just be over with so she could go home and see her girls.

Finally the end of the day rolls around and the book is delivered to Miranda who quickly rushes to Andrea's house. This time she was in and out in less than a minute. She practically ran to the cab and was on her way home. Once she arrived in her house she kicks off her heels and quietly walks up the stairs to the girls room. She opens the door and smiles at the scene that appears before her eyes; both girls laying in a tangle mess of sheets softly snoring away. With a sigh she closes the door and walks to her room hoping to get a good night's rest and be ready for another day in the office. 'Only 303 days left to go.'
