"Is Casey alright, why is she grumpy this morning or day?" Monica asked Rocket, makimg the brown-red furred male shrug his shoulders because he was just as concerned for his niece because she looked tired, that she had not been sleeping, wondering why or what was making her grumpy.
What they did not know or realise was that Casey didn't sleep without her favourite stuffed animal, which happened to be a plush Groot that her uncle had given her when she had been littler, so it was her comfort item that got her through the night, so now he was missing, she could not sleep not wanting to tell her uncle or Monica besides the others.
"Maybe breakfast will make her feel better, and turn her back, into the kit we know and love." Rocket said while they were going to the kitchens, seeing Casey very quiet as she was eating, makimg the others wonder, if everything was alright with Casey.
"I'll find out what's going on, Aunt." Monica said to Carol, relieving her and Rocket.
She was seeing Casey frantically searching her room looking for something, noticing the stuffed Groot that the brown-red furred female youngster slept with was not on her bed, makimg her get it, why Casey was tired and grumpy feeling bad for her.
"He disappeared and I can't find him, but I couldn't bear to tell uncle Rockie, because he gave her to me." Casey admitted sniffling.
"Awww it's alright, we'll find her, that way you can take an nap because your uncle is worrying about you." Monica said.
She was helping her out, as Casey's room like her uncle's room was a bit messy, but that always happdned with kids, noticing the toxbox, getting an idea, nudging Casey's furty shoulder gently, pointing to the chest makimg the brown-red furred female guess, it was worth a shot opening it, makimg her eyes widen in happiness, finding Flora, her stuffed Groot doll makimg her happy.
"I knew we'd find her, Casey, but now you should take an nap, you know?" Monica said seeimg her hug her.
Casey wondered how Flora had gotten into her toybox in the first place, gettimg into her bed being out like a light just as Rocket came in to check on her, seeing her cuddlimg Flora making him guess that was why Casey had been so grumpy, hopimg she would feel better after her nap.
"So somebody's feeling better after she found Flora, and took an nap?" Rocket asked Casey, seeing her nodding in reply, while having a snack.
"Yeah, you know I can't sleep without Flora, which was why I was grumpy, so Monica helped me out." Casey told him making him relieved.
It was later that afternoon, and Casey had woken up from her nap in a way better mood, now she had Flora back which relieved Rocket and the others because they had been worried about er, wondering what had upset the female kit that much plus Casey was wondering where her uncle was going at the weekend makimg Rocket sigh knowing he would have to tell her.
"To San Fransyokyo, as Kade is getting an award." he replied making Casey happy for her cousin, making a mischievous grin cross her furry face, at the thought of being on her own for the weekend makimg Rocket stunned, that she wasn't upset that she could not come, which was a good thing besides Monica could distract her from missing him until he got back, seeing herin a good mood.
