A/N: Guess who's back?

Toby woke up on his bed. He yawned, stretched his arms and legs before taking a second look at himself.

He was back to his original size.

"Oh, thank God," he exclaimed. Just as he was about to lie down again, he heard a noise coming from the dollhouse. He turned to look and found the gnome, Chompsky, happily staring out of the window, the plastic doll by his side and acting all lovey dovey around it. Toby smiled at this.

Man, even the damn gnome can find true love before me. 

He chuckled as he slowly got out of bed. 

Huh, now that I think of it, I seem to remember Darci? Kissing me? But we aren't even that close! Where were we, in front of her dad? But that never happened. Or did it? No, no way! But, it felt like it did happen. 

Toby pondered on it again. He realized that he was having weird visions of another lifetime that could have been so real. He wondered if the rest had the same problems. He decided he would bring it up the next time he met his four-armed mentor. 

It wasn't until a few seconds later that he realized if he kept thinking about it, he'd be late for his field trip.

"Shit!" he cried out as he quickly got ready to go.

--------------------------------------------------------------

It was safe to say that Jim had everything under control up until now, besides NotEnrique turning up earlier than expected. After that talk with Douxie and Archie the day before, he had nothing much to worry about throughout the night, allowing him to catch up on some well-needed rest. 

Currently, he was standing next to a much excited Toby, whom Jim was not sure of what happened last night, but most probably it was him being shrunk. How Jim would love to see it. He also had no idea what his friend was talking about, since he was blabbering too fast.

In front of the duo were the rest of their history classmates, with Mr Strickler and Nomura, facing them. Nomura was talking something about European history. 

'I know contemporary media might lead you to believe European history is full of swords, sorcery, and scandal. I assure you, the truth is far more interesting, and there's no better place to start than Renaissance Era pottery!" 

Everybody just groaned while Eli just gasped in wonder, causing Steve, who was just behind him, to smack the back of his head. 

Mr Strickler seemed to notice the expressions of his students, so he spoke up. "Since we have limited time, Ms. Nomura, perhaps it's best if they explore the museum on their own. Don't you think?"

Before Nomura could reply, the faces of the whole class lit up and without wasting another second, they all dashed inside, in various directions to explore the museum. 

Toby and Jim were walking through the halls, where they passed the room with white curtains. A sign 'DO NOT ENTER' was placed at the side. Jim knew what was behind. Toby didn't, but Jim decided not to poke on it. Toby would find out eventually. Or would he give him a little tip? 

They made their way to the second floor, Toby still talking about his Chubby Tracker, Jim noticed. Still exploring the floor, they found Claire looking at a dress inside a glass placing. Suddenly, Jim's attention was towards her, ignoring his friend's comments. Toby noticed his friend's change of attention and followed the lanky boy's eyes until he realized. 

"Aw, come on man, just go talk to her," Toby lamented. "You are too nervous man, too nervous. I mean you already asked her out"

Jim just sighed.
