Sandy held Men securely as she entered Hana's room. The little one was tuckered out from a full day of pulling on Sandy's hair, calling Sandy a Baka and generally getting into things. Without Hana he was left to find other entertainment.

Yu had finally called, left a single note saying she'd found Petey and would be holding onto him until she went on patrol. Then she'd drop him off at the Onsen.

It irked the hell out of Sandy that Yu wasn't responding to her at all. Almost like she blamed Sandy for the whole thing.

Sitting down next to Hana Sandy looked at him and felt a familiar stab in her chest.

"I can't believe you let Petey escape." Tiffany chided sitting in a chair opposite Sandy.

"Shut up." Sandy snipped back her eyes not leaving Hana, "You're not even real."

"Maybe...I may be a figment of your imagination but even I know when you're being stupid. You know Yu doesn't blame you for any of this."

"Am I allowed to blame someone?" Sandy asked gently, ignoring how absurd it was she was talking to a figment of her own imagination let alone that it looked like her friend.

"Depends on who you want to blame." Tiffany responded coolly sipping tea from a fine little cup.

"Myself for starters." Sandy sighed and adjusted Men in her lap, "The last thing I did before he died was yell at him...he probably thinks I hate him."

"Knowing him maybe." Tiffany responded without a trace of emotion.

"Gee thanks, you're a big comfort." Sandy grumbled affixing a glare on the person who couldn't possibly be there.

"Don't be stupid." Tiffany admonished setting her Teacup down on a little saucer, "All you have to do is apologize to him when he wakes up."

"If he wakes up." sandy mumbled darkly.

"He will." Tiffany smiled gently, "He has to come back for us, just like I have to come back for you and him."

Sandy was unconvinced that this was a good thing, "Don't say us...this is pretty much it once you wake up. He's yours. Marry him...just don't invite me to the wedding."

Tiffany shook her head with a chuckle, "It's not a competition Sandy, Hana loves us both."

"But we can't just...share him." Sandy protested feeling her face flush.

"Why not?"

There was a long pause.

"what?" Sandy responded thinking perhaps she hadn't heard the figment clearly.

[hctiwknip]

"Why can't we share him? It's not like he even understands what we really mean when we say we love him. I say we just relax and have fun with him together. I mean depending on how soon he and I wake up you may get a head start...but I like you well enough Sandy."

Sandy's face was red as she glared at Tiffany "You're kidding, you've got to be. We can't just like...both be his girlfriends."

"Let's just settle on being his friends, who are girls. Eventually things will work out." Tiffany was smiling serenely.

Sandy pondered this for a minute, "So...would I have to stop hugging him and giving him little cheek kisses?"

"Not a bit...just so long as I could to...err...when I'm up and about."

Sandy smirked, "For something that's not even real...you're pretty sharp."

Tiffany giggled "You say that now, but see how I am when you're trying to explain all this to me when I wake up."

For a moment Sandy looked concerned, "So...you are gonna wake up right?"

Tiffany smiled mysteriously, "Happy Birthday Sandy...I know it's not till tomorrow but I wanted to be the first to tell you."

"Sandy?"

Sandy snapped up, she'd fallen asleep in the chair and Men was now on Hana's bed tugging on his hair. "Baka." He stated casually.

Gottsumon was standing in the doorway with the lunch tray looking worried, "You OK Sands?"

Sandy smiled a rare smile, "Feelin' fine Gottsumon...as good as I can anyway."
