GAH! I haven't updated in forever! I'm SO SORRY! I would like to inform you that I am finally back from being chased by Molly. (I beat her here by a light-year, don't tell her.) T-shirts can be picked up at the end of this fic. Anyhoo, here are the review answers;

To juzblue: Thanky you. I like their depth too. Makes them seem more like real teens with real problems, doesn't it?

To TPfreak: …Woah. What d you mean it went no where? I distinctly remember Molly taking a bus home, and then the two 'lovebirds' walking to Mia's. That is definitely going somewhere.

To spanishfaeire: Actually, you taping me to a chair and forcing me to type would probably be a good thing. Then my updates wouldn't be so sporadic! Though, it wouldn't be fair to the other readers if you read over my shoulder. Plus, I tend to go back and rewrite entire chapters. Anyway, about the books, you mean fushigi yuugi, correct? Well, then I LOVE THOSE BOOKS! THEY ROCK MY SOCKS!

To Batya: Why thank you, thank you very much

To Yazmari: I should, shouldn't I?

To Celestial Secrets: Thank you. I'll send you an e-mail when the fighting is about to start. Is that okay?

To AnotherChance: Yes, I do try to be prompt. But if you have seen any of my other stories you'd know that some of them haven't been updated for a year, sometimes two:smacks hand: bad worm, BAD! Anyway, I'll sic my sugarbowl muse on the bus drivers for you if it'll help your cause. Let me know.

So, guess what, summer's almost over, and my clubs and stuff are starting up at school. Please be patient if the updates become more infrequent than they already are. Plus, I have just posted a new fiction. Read it if you find the time! Anyway,

When Molly and Rick arrived at Mia's house, they walked up to the door. Before Rick could even lift his hand to ring the doorbell, the door swung open, revealing an anxious looking Mia.

"What took you so long? No wait never mind, it doesn't matter, you're here now, let's go." She said in a rush.

And with that, she raced up the stairs. Her friends looked at each other and shook their heads. Both were thinking the same thing; Mia was a little over eager to return. They followed her up the stairs. They entered her room to find her sitting by her closet door, ready to go with her hair tied up. She was staring anxiously at the closet door. When they entered, she got up and said

"The door's not there."

"WHAT?"

"WHAT?"

Mia nodded. She went over to her closet door and opened it slowly. She looked in cautiously and then shook her head. Then she opened the door all the way. The three companions looked in. There was nothing but Mia's clothes and shoes. There was a moment of silence and then

"You really need to clean your closet out, Mia." Rick said calmly.

Mia smacked him upside the head.

"How can you joke at a time like this? What are we going to do?"

"Well, the first thing YOU are going to do is calm down." Molly said sternly.

Mia took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

"You're right," She admitted begrudgingly. "There has to be a reasonable explanation for this."

All three thought for a moment, and the Rick said

"Maybe we all need to be wearing our links for the door to appear."

Molly glanced at Mia, who shrugged and said

"It's worth a shot. Let's try it."

So they all tied their links on and Mia opened the closet door. As she opened it, she thought

'Please let it be there. It sounds strange, but I feel more at home there than I ever did here.'

Gah! (again) I'm sorry it's so short! My sugarbowl muse has abandoned me. (This is also known as Writer's Block, for those of you who don't speak bookworym) Please bear with me. I need to get back into writer's mode, after a summer of not writing regularly and right now, I reallyneed to replenish my writer's talent (eat more sugar) I'll be back soon. In the mean time, please read my other fiction. Thanks! the worm
