Popularity was as fleeting as what one could get with a weekly paycheck. 
Like a candy bar.
And Stacey had been with Roxanne whenever she needed to get out of the house.
Usually.
Once meeting Bobby a new feeling came over her; unlike fighting the emotional conflict of wrath and nausea.
She used her creative energy with the photography, garden and yearbook club. 
Thus successfully rounding out her entrance collage resume.
But somewhere between the growth and fertilizer and the rocks and the dirt...
She saw less of Roxanne.
Perhaps it was good for her.
For both?
Stacey saw she (and Max) had joined a few clubs together. But even between the academics and extracurriculars...
She missed her friend.
Bobby was, well Bobby.
Stacey missed being able to confide her deepest emotions or even casual conversation.
Bobby tried hard to understand.
*Luckily* life provided ultimate diversion.
Until she realized she had lost touch with that side of herself. That which she tried to place with each daisy - somehow placed in each of her creative works.
Maybe this was how Goof Junior felt when he'd come to her door a few years ago.
But the kudzu had been tamer then.
And if she didn't - now -she might loose the nerve.
Or was Stacy already too late?
Wishing she still had her glasses so she could adjust them.
But the contacts had been easier to keep track of...
Or braces so she could focus on 
their taught support on...
Suddenly Stacey was aware of a petite, duel-red-pigtailed, female version of someone who looked almost familiar...
Unblinking; obviously not surprised to see some stranger stalling on the front porch of her best friend.
But who was...?
Stacy extended her hand towards the kid like she was in campaign mode. 
"Hi - I'm a friend of Roxanne and you are...?"
"KnowwhoyouarebutyoudontcomearoundasmuchasyouusedtosobetweenBobbythat'sherboyfriendandclubsStacybabysitsme.ButI'mnotababyjust*spirited*alikemymommasays.Sincedaddyandshegotdivorcedand..."
As the tiny terror paused to take a much needed breath a silhouette stepped behind up behind her.
"Who is it, Pistol?"
A pair of surprised eyes widened as they regarded each other. 
It hadn't been that long.
Had it? 
 
By request for RiotHavoc3362, who wanted Stacey and Roxanne of A Goofy Movie (spinoff of Goof Troop, thus PJ's little sister) to have a reunion chapter.
