I sat on my bed and closed my eyes resting my hand on the smooth cold glass and try to just focus on this sensation. Everything felt so different since returning, the glass, the way my close brush against my skin, the smell of the air around me… everything feels so much more. It is not just the tactile things that hurt more, the feelings, so

You know what cures the bad moodyness like nothing else? Cleaning. Well okay, maybe that just works on me. But someone has to keep things light around here. With all the doom and gloom even ex-prom-queens and current powers can turn into depresso gal. It wasn't like Wes was coming out of his room anytime soon. I didn't even know what he was doing in there. Brooding. Picking up right where Angel left off. Ha. And he said that he could never be anything like Angel. Hello!

Faith had tried her damndest to sneak in just before dawn but I'd seen her too. Slinking off to her room like the weird slayer that she was. Note to self: before you kick the bucket, Cordelia. Take Faith shopping. It was sorely needed. I didn't know what kind of impression in the work place she was trying to make but if it was 'I'm a giant skank-o-rama' she had it down pat.

Humming to myself cheerily I started dusting and cleaning off the counter in the lobby.

"Okay. I know that two sadistic psycho vampires were the last one's living here...but come on. The dust mop is not a brand new invention." I muttered, as I suddenly heard someone coming down the stairs.

"Oh Fred. Hi." I smiled at her, before continuing to dust the counter. "Can you believe the dust bunnies in this place? We could start a dust bunny farm. Think anyone would pay for dust bunnies?"

I am kind of confused by the whole "Dust bunny" comment, but than again I never fully got used to the image of the Queen of Pylea doing housework ever though I had seen her do it time and time again.

"Ohh dust bunny farm? Well you know how...." I almost say his name but stop myself. I try not to cry so I just try and make a lame joke "how can we afford to feed and train these bunnies? Where in a budget Cordy." I force a smile, wow that joke was lame.. even for me.

"Actually Cordy I think we can put off house work for a while, would you like to go get something to eat? I am famished and since well everything that has happened famished has a new meaning."

I tried my hardest to smile at Fred's attempt at a joke, but it really was just...lame. And I loved the girl like a sister, but a lame joke for her was like beyond bad. Still I managed that smile I'd perfected over the years just for her. I knew she was still bummed out, with good reason. Things had sort of fallen apart around here, well they had been falling apart for a long time. One of us has to find the silver lining.

Who was I kidding? That was such a load of crap.

"I'm starved actually." I admitted to her, quickly putting the dust cloth away and grabbing my coat from the hook nearby. "Lunch sounds like the best idea I've heard all day." Well okay, I technically haven't heard any ideas all day what with Wes hiding away and Faith sneaking around like a big freak.

I lead Cordy into the kitchen and start to mill around the kitchen opening and closing cabinets looking to see what we had.. we did not exactly have much.

"Umm peanut butter, frozen waffles, pasta, and oooh pasta sauce.. I think we have a winner." I said pulling out a large pot and filling it with water. I than put the put on the burner and turned it on.

"We really need to do some shopping." I said and saw Cordy perk up at the suggestion. "I think I would like some new clothes as well." I commented and see her eyes even widen further. I should have known she would like this idea.
