Fred didn't know when she'd fallen asleep, but she'd slept the entire night through, wrapped in her husband's arms. When she opened her eyes again, she blinked at the bright sunshine filtering through the curtains of the room. She rolled over a little and smiled when she saw Wesley was still there and she was still very much alive

When Regan heard her mom's voice, she looked up, blushing slightly before glancing back down at the bread. "Well, there's no toaster, and Uncle Giles used the grill to make toast the other day, so I thought I'd try it. Uncle Giles is actually a pretty good cook

"I'm happy to be back, too, sweetie," Fred whispered as she rubbed her hand over Regan's back. "I've missed the both of you so much and I wanted nothing more than to come home." She wanted to make sure her daughter understood that she had wanted to come back and had tried. Fred never wanted Regan to think she hadn't tried

Regan shook her head when her mom took over making the bread. She had done so much, but she couldn't use an oven? She decided to let it go, though. Her mom had been gone for so long, and it was actually kinda nice to have her fussing over her again. "You need to leave the door cracked open," she said, pulling it open slightly before stepping back. "Uncle Giles said the bread can burn otherwise

Fred chewed on her bottom lip when Wesley suggested they go outside for a while. Truth be told, she was a little afraid of what was out there. Inside, she was protected from things making her sick. She didn't want to leave her family again

When Fred looked down at her hand, asking about her rings, Wesley frowned and cursed himself silently. In all the excitement of getting her back, the emotions of the previous night, he had forgot something very important. He looked over at Regan and saw her worry - he knew that as much as they wanted everything to be back to normal so soon, it might take a while. There was a lot to work through.
But there was something that at the very least he could fix.
"I'll be right back," he said, getting up and dropping a kiss on Fred's forehead before hurrying out of the room.
He went upstairs and picked up his bag, looking through it until he found the small bag that he had kept with him through everything. He had never been able to get rid of them, knew he never would have. Holding it in his hand for a moment, he smiled and then went back downstairs to the dining room.
"Fred, love, I have something for you," he said as he knelt down and opening the bag to take out what was inside. Taking her hand, he slipped her rings on her finger.
Fred watched Wesley get up from the table, feeling guilty for making such a fuss over things. She looked over at Regan and gave her sheepish look before looking down at her plate. She then looked up when Wesley appeared again

The look on Fred's face at the sight of the rings back on her fingers did Wesley's heart good. He had found the rings after she had died where she had left them on the dresser when she had taken ill, so he had put them away, not able to ever part with them. Now, they were back where they belonged
