Woody was still dreaming peacefully of Melody when he woke to the sound of humming. The simple sound was so beautiful to him, he smiled. He looked over at Melody who was buttoning up a red flannel shirt over a black tank top. She was wearing bell bottom jeans and black socks. Woody chuckled silently to himself when he saw her hair up in a towel on her head. He figured she must've just taken a shower. She walked over to her boots and selected a pair and began to pull them on. Once she had her boots on she walked over and looked out the window. Woody was once again stunned by her green eyes. She smiled.
"Beautiful day isn't it guys?" Melody said cheerfully. She reached for the towel on her head and pulled it off, letting her hair fall down. Woody felt as though he couldn't breathe for a second, he felt as though his heart had skipped a beat. She shook her hair gently with her hands. Woody could smell a scent that reminded him of the outdoors, fresh air and pine trees. She walked out the door and he heard a blow dryer start up. Woody sat up and took a deep breath. He thought he was beginning to understand what he was feeling for Melody, but he didn't want to accept it. He heard the blow dryer stop and he froze back in place. Melody walked in and pulled a full length mirror out of her closet and sat it against the wall. She began to look around, she was obviously searching for something. She walked over to Woody.
"Have you seen my brush cowboy?" She asked with a smile. She picked him up and looked behind the pillow he was sitting against. "There you are" She said as she grabbed her brush. She stood up and looked at Woody and a look of sadness washed over her. Woody hated seeing her sparkling green eyes turn to sad.
"Oh Woody…." she sighed sadly. "I remember the days when I was little and I pretended that you were my husband and we had a ranch…. I got the ranch but…. I have no one to share it with…" A tear slid down her cheek. She quickly wiped it away. "If only…" She sighed. "Oh who am I kidding, you're a toy, and as much as I would love for you to be alive, I know…" She bit her lip as another tear rolled down from her green eyes. " I know you'll never…" Her voice cracked. "You'll never be alive..." She pulled Woody into a tight hug. He felt her warmth and only wished he could hold her…comfort her…wipe away her tears. She pulled him away and began to smile. "In my heart you're real Woody…you're all real…and I love you so much." She pulled Woody into another quick hug and then laid him gently on the window seat.
She wiped away her tears and began to brush her hair. Woody watched as she straightened out her hair, the smell of her still lingering in his nose. She walked over and picked out a hat and placed it on her head. She took one more glance in the mirror then walked out, leaving the door slightly cracked. Woody jumped up instantly and walked over to the window and put his forehead against the glass.
"Why?" He cried as he pounded his fist on the window. He felt so….well…he didn't know what he felt…but he didn't like it. He felt like he had no control, like he knew he could never truly comfort Melody.
"Why can't I just be with her?" He cried as he fell to his knees as a tear slid form his deep brown eyes. He felt pain he had never felt before. He heard footsteps and he looked up as he quickly wiped away his tears. He saw Buzz approaching.
"What's wrong sheriff?" Buzz asked in a sympathetic tone.
"Nothing Buzz" He sighed as he turned away.
"Woody…I'm your best friend…I know something's wrong" He sighed as he walked to his sad friend and put his hand on his shoulder. "It's Melody isn't it…" He trailed off as Woody began to turn around.
"Oh Buzz" He sighed sadly as he put his face in his hands. "What's happening to…" Woody stopped as he and Buzz turned to the door. There stood Melody with wide eyes. The toys had not heard her come in. They instantly dropped onto the window seat and resumed toy form.
"I must be dreaming" She said in a daze as she blinked her eyes. She walked over to the two toys and picked them up. "That's not where I left you" She said curiously as she looked them over and then sat Buzz back on the shelf. She looked at Woody and sighed. "I guess I've finally gone crazy" She said with a nervous chuckle. "I guess only in my dreams" She sighed as she laid Woody back on the seat. Woody wanted to yell, he wanted to show her he was alive, but something inside him wouldn't let him.
"Well…I'll see you guys later I have a lot of clients today" She sighed as she waved to the toys and grabbed her cell phone off her desk and left once again, shutting the door behind her.
Woody waited till he heard her talking to people outside to move to the other window. He crawled up on the seat and put his hands on the glass as he watched Melody from above. He once again fell to his knees, he couldn't stand, he felt sick.
"That was close" Woody heard behind him as he turned to see Buzz.
"I should've just shown her…" Woody trailed off.
"I don't think that's a good idea Woody" Buzz sighed as he walked towards his friend. "I'm sorry I know this must be hard…" Buzz trailed off.
"You have no idea" Woody said as his voice cracked and tears began to flow from his glazed eyes. He looked at Melody one last time and then curled into a ball, tears still streaming down his face. "You…" He began as his voice cracked. "You have no idea…"
