Wow...it took me too long to write 935 words...my bad. Anyway, here's the next chapter! Happy Easter! (I know it's kinda late to say that...) Enjoy!


Boo darted inside the apartment. She has a look of awe on her. She had always remembered the apartment, but she always thought it was a dream.

"And what about her parents?" Sulley continued the argument with Mike all the way home.

"What about them? One less mouth to feed for the night." Mike said. He went to a shelf to find some paper and crayons for Boo. "You still like colouring, right?"

"Uh-huh. I'm the best in my class." Boo grinned.

"Because her parents will- wait. You're in school?" Sulley asked.

"Yeah. I'm in SK. That means Senior Kindergarten. And then next year, I'll be in grade 1, and then grade 2, and then grade 3, and then grade 4, and then grade 5, and then grade 6 and then grade..." Boo continued her count of her grades until graduation from high school.

"She's in school." Sulley said to Mike, who has having trouble reaching the crayons on the top shelf.

"Yeah." Mike didn't sound interested. "Do you mind getting the crayons?"

"Sure." Sulley batted the crayons to Mike, who fumbled them. He remembered he was in a great argument with Mike. "Her parents will worry."

"It's just one night. If anyone asks, she was hiding." Mike said.

"What's with all of the boxes?" Boo ended the argument for now.

"Oh, yeah. Sorry about the mess, kid." Mike said, remembering he needed to pack. He grabbed a marker that was lying beside the box and labeled it. "I'm gonna be moving soon, so I gotta pack."

"You're moving?" Boo cried.

"Not far!" Mike said, getting anxious when he saw Boo's eyes start to water. "I'm gonna be staying in the building, just in another room."

"Why?" Boo asked.

"I'm getting married." Mike explained. "And don't worry, Sulley and I will still be friends, and we'll visit you all the time."

"Oh." Boo seemed satisfied with the response. She sat next to Mike and started putting her crayons and paper to use. "Who are you getting married to?"

"Celia."

"Is she pretty?"

"She's very pretty."

"Is she nice?"

"Yup."

"Do I know her?"

Mike paused at that. He then remembered of Boo's and Celia's very brief meet. Sulley was dragging Mike down the hall, with Celia dragging behind. Boo scared Celia into letting go of Mike.

"Uh...kinda."

Mike then continued to pack up his belongings. Boo watched him intently, observing his every move.

"Can I help?" Boo finally asked.

"Sure...." Mike said, not knowing if she'll be actual help or just a nuisance.

Boo began walking around the apartment, and grabbing things that caught her attention. She found a book that looked interesting, even though she could hardly read. She thought it would do well inside the box. She put it in the box, and she thought it looked rather fitting. When she went off to find more things, Mike took the book out. It was Sulley's.

Boo soon returned to Mike with a pen she thought would go nicely with the book.

"You know what, Boo? I think Sulley's lonely right now." Mike said, trying to get her mind diverted from packing. "Why don't you go help him do something."

"Okay!" Boo trotted over to Sulley, who wasn't doing anything. "What do you need help with?"

"Oh...uh, why don't you draw me a picture to put up in my office?" Sulley suggested.

"Okay!" Boo trotted back over to the box to fetch the pen she just threw in. Then she grabbed some paper and began to draw. Boo was singing to herself as she created her masterpiece.

Boo brought her drawing back to Sulley. Her drawing skills have improved since the last time she had drawn. Sulley saw two monsters on the page, and he knew one of them was himself, but he had no idea who the other was. He gave Boo a questioning look, and she simply giggled.

"That's Princess Elizabeth." Boo explained. "You can get married to her! She's a monster like you and a very pretty princess."

To emphasize Princess Elizabeth's prettiness, Boo began to dance around the room.

"Elizabeth looks very pretty." Sulley said.

"Princess Elizabeth." Boo said.

"Oh. Princess Elizabeth looks very pretty." Sulley said.

"I know." Boo continued to dance.

"And I think it's time for you to get to bed." Sulley added in.

Boo stopped dancing. "But I'm not tired?" With that, she fell asleep on the floor.

Sulley tucked Boo into his bed, which was still far to big for her. He soundlessly closed the door.

"Can you believe she's in school?" Sulley asked.

"Not really." Mike said, still packing.

"Last time she stayed overnight, she couldn't even talk." Sulley continued.

Mike turned to his best friend. "Sulley, she's a kid, and kids grow up. That's supposed to happen."

"I know." Sulley said. "But she's growing up too fast. What if she becomes too busy to visit? What if she won't want to visit?"

Mike paused his packing. He was usually the one who freaked out, not Sulley. There had to be something more to this. He decided not to prod it out of Sulley.

"You're just overreacting." Mike said. He felt weird to say that. He was sure Sulley would snap out of it, and go back to his non-overreacting self.
