The sun shone brightly through the window of Andy's bedroom,  causing Jessie and Buzz to stir from their peaceful slumber, they exchanged glances at each other and carefully untangled themselves, laughing softly at the predicament they'd found themselves in.

"Sorry about that Buzz" she stood,  letting the blanket fall off her shoulders as she stretched,  grabbing her hat from its resting place and placing it carefully on her head. After casting a glance back to the sleepy spaceman, she offered a hand and pulled him to his feet.

He offered a small smile, and cleared his throat, "There's no need for an apology." he rubbed the back of his neck,  meeting her gaze, Before either of them could say anything else, Andy's alarm clock sounded,  and the boy began to stir. The pair quickly jumped off their perch and ran to where Andy had left them last,  and collapsed upon the ground,  just as he sits up in bed.

The sleepy boy begrudgingly swung his legs over the side of the bed and got up, stretching widely, making a soft sound as his back pops, before rummaging through his drawers to change into his day clothes, he'd just pulled his hat on when somewhere down the stairs he heard his mother's gentle call, "Andy! Breakfast is ready!" The smell of bacon,  eggs, and pancakes wafted up from the kitchen to the room, "Alright!!!!!!" and the boy grinned, excitedly running downstairs, nearly jumping over the banister in his excitement.

As soon as he was out of sight the toys roused themselves from their quiet slumber, and began to move around, greeting their friends as they did, Woody, to be sure nothing had happened over night, called for a head count, and as he was counting, he froze for a moment, thinking he was missing someone, and he gazed at the room, scanning carefully before seeing who he was missing, "Ah! There you are Wheezy, thought we lost you again" Wheezy just laughs.

A few hours later, Andy was watching TV, clasping both Buzz and Woody close to his chest, laughing at the silly characters on screen.  Meanwhile, Jessie sat in the window sill, working diligently on something in her lap, curiosity peaked for Mrs. Potato Head, and she, rather clumsily joined Jessie on the window sill, "What are you doing up here all alone, sweetie?" Jessie nearly jumped out of her skin, "Nothing!!!" but that was quickly proven to be false as Mrs. Potato Head laid eyes on a beautiful yellow flower crown resting lightly in Jessie's lap, the flowers to finish it still clutched in her tiny hands. "uh I.. Um was. I uh Can.. It um" it all came out as a small squeak,  The sweet potato started laughing lightly,  "Oh, I see. Nothing, Your version of nothing is quite beautiful, and judging by your reaction, I assume its for a certain space man, we all know and love."

Jessie slumped, defeated, both hating and loving how easily MPH could read her emotions,  "Yeah it's for him..I thought that the yellow would go really well with his paint.." MPH nods, "I fully agree with you, once you put the Finishing touches on it, I know he'll love it." Jessie beamed, and for the next hour, she worked on and finished the delicate crown.
