Woody and Jessie made their way into the house. As much as Jessie tried to push them away, the butterflies kept returning. Yeah, she was excited to see Buzz, but was also nervous at the same time. Would he be mad at her? What if he didn't like her anymore? What if he moved on and had a girlfriend? She saw Buzz get out of his car. In his hands were lilies, her favorite flower. She broke into a sprint and ran up behind him, hugging him from the back. "Buzz!" she shouted.

The redhead released him and he turned around and captured her into another hug. "Jessie..I thought I would never see you again," he whispered.

It took all of Jessie's strength not to cry, and she managed to hold back the tears. "It's great to see ya," she whispered back.

She felt him squeeze her tighter to him before he let her go and handed her the flowers. She took a deep breath of their pretty scent. Buzz made his way to his oldest friend and shook his hand. "Woody, good to see you."

"Buzz, always great to have ya around," said the cowboy.

The trio made their way into the old farm house and over to the dining room. Bo had all the food sitting out, and was just carrying out the roast. "Good to see ya, Buzz," she said as she set the roast on the table.

"Always a pleasure, Bo. Looks delicious."

"Well have a seat. It's gettin' cold."

Woody caught Bo before she sat down and whispered something in her ear. She stole a glance at Jessie, and mouthed "later," and sat down. She dished out some food onto her plate, and passed it along. Conversation soon filled the room, along with laughter and stories of the best days of their high school.

"Remember the time when we all went camping the summer before senior year?" Woody asked.

Jessie laughed. "Of course! It rained the whole time, and you only brought one tent. We all had to sleep in it for the whole weekend! It was a disaster!"

"Ah..I remember that. Woody and I went fishing, and the fish got fried by lightning before the first storm rolled in."

Jessie and Bo both gave him a look that said they didn't buy it then, and they weren't about to buy it now.

"It really did happen!" Woody tried to convince them.

"Uh-huh. And Hamm can fly." Bo retorted.

Jessie laughed and Bo quickly joined in. Buzz looked at Woody and shrugged.

Once Bo and Jessie calmed themselves down, dinner was cleaned up, and Buzz approached Jessie as she was finishing loading the dishes in the dishwasher.

"Hey..I was wondering..would you like to go for a walk or something?" He asked nervously.

Jessie's eyes lit up and she smiled. "I thought you'd never ask," she replied.

She dried her hands off on a towel and they exited the house through the back door. There were crickets chirping, and the sun was just beginning to set. They walked around until they got to the woods. They found the big oak tree that had a couple swings on it and sat down to watch the sunset. "Ya know," Jessie began. "After they took me, I never thought I'd see the sun again."

"Jessie, I'm so sorry," Buzz said, getting up to go to where Jessie sat and kneeling beside her.

Jessie looked at him, confused. "Why? I mean, it's not like there was anything that you could have done for me. What, were ya gonna go across the border and save me?" Her confused look started to fade as she stared off into the distance and her eyes became glassy. "They took me in the alley along with Emily. They threw us in a black van and drove us over to Canada. Buzz, I was sold!" she said, her glassy eyes starting to cry. Buzz stood up and wrapped her in his arms.

"Shh," he said, stroking her short red hair. "It's over now, you don't have to deal with that anymore. I'm here now," he told her.

"But what about Emily? She's still out there. We have to find her, Buzz."

"I'm sure the police are working on finding her. We just-" he sighed. "We just have to hope that they will find her."

Jessie wept into Buzz's shoulder, and finally the tears stopped coming. "I'm sorry," she whispered.

"You have nothing to be sorry for, sweetie. What happened wasn't your fault." Replied Buzz gently.

Jessie pulled back, wiping the remainder of the tears from her face. "Thank you. For everything. I thought you'd be angry at me for running away like that," she confessed.

"Jessie, I was never mad at you. I-I always thought it was something that I did that made you leave."

The red-haired girl shook her head. "No Buzz, I left on my own. I was just so ready to get out of here that I took the first scholarship I got and ran off. It was nothing that you, Woody, Bo, or anyone else did. I just..I don't know. I felt like I needed to just run away and be happy. I had no idea that happiness came at such a great price."

The two sat in silence for a while before Jessie got up and pulled Buzz with her. "Come on, Silly Space Boy. Let's get back inside," she said, earning a smile from Buzz. She had called him that ever since he'd told her that he wanted to live on the moon one day back when they were little.

The two made their way back to the house, greeting Bo and Woody who were in the living room watching TV. "Want to join them?" Buzz asked.

Jessie nodded her head and the two claimed the love seat against the wall. "What are we watching?" asked Jessie.

"'Deal or No Deal'," replied Woody.

The four sat watching TV for a while. Well, two of them were. The other two were just glad to be back in each other's arms.
