I know that I have some other stories going right now but I want to do a
Christmas story for Nancy Drew section. I hope you guys enjoy this one.
Disclaimer: I don't own them. I just have fun writing them.
Chapter 1
"Frank! Is the car ready yet?" A woman's voice yelled through the house.
"Yes dear!" He returned.
He grabbed his wife as she was about to pass him. "Not yet!" He whispered just before he embraced her and their two year old son. The child squirmed as he was squished between his parents when they kissed.
"Hey, come on. We have to go pick up George, Bess and their families." She pulled away.
"When is Joe arriving?" Frank chuckled at the thought of his brother coming over with his wife of a few months.
"He should be here at about six tonight. I don't think that Elayne will have them be late for anything." Nancy agreed with her husband.
-A little while later-
At the airport Bess was holding her newborn baby. George was trying to keep Alyssa occupied while their husbands checked them in and got the luggage. Nancy came up behind them so very happy to see them. "Bess! George!" Her arms were around them in a group hug.
"Nancy you look great!" Bess squealed quietly enough she didn't wake the sleeping baby. "I've got to lose weight!"
Nancy giggled. Her friend was always worried about losing weight. Now that she had her baby she really would worry. She wanted to fit back into her clothes. "No you don't! You look great!"
George laughed. "She's right you do!" She looked at Nancy, "Where's the little guy?"
The mentioned toddler jumped out his Daddy's arms to his Aunt George. "Auntie!" George scooped him while Nancy ruffled Alyssa's hair.
"Have you been a good girl?" She asked when the four year old gave her a hug.
She shook her head and watched Nancy provide a candy cane. "Now you have to wait until after dinner to eat it."
The little girl nodded solemnly. "Yes Aunt Nancy." She turned to Frank. "Uncle Frank can I eat the candy cane now please?" She begged.
Frank laughed at the little girl. "No. Now what did Aunt Nancy say?" He scooped her up in his arms.
"She said I had to wait." She pouted. She knew that she wouldn't get her way but it never hurt to try.
George took her daughter. "Come on let's go find some place to eat. I hope that your van is set up for children. She looked at Frank.
"It is. I use the other van for work."
It's a good thing that we didn't have to pick up Joe." Nancy looked at the crowd of people that would be in the van. Six adults and three children were quite a bit to get in one car.
Later that night at home Nancy set the tables. She had two tables. There was one short table and one tall table. George was watching the kids and Frank was whipping up some kind of culinary miracle. She hoped. Ned had a guest that he was bringing over later, Joe was bringing Elayne, her dad was bringing Hannah, Fenton and his wife, Aunt Gertrude she hoped would have someone with her, and Aunt Eloise said something about bringing someone.
Just as she finished setting the table the doorbell rang. "I'll get it!" She called out so they wouldn't be stampeded. She opened the door to find Joe standing there kissing his wife.
Nancy cleared her throat. When they looked at her she was looking up to see if she had hung the mistletoe up yet. "You two want to come in?" She asked.
Joe led Elayne into the house. "Elayne is your father and mother coming?" Nancy asked.
"Yes he said he would arrive tomorrow morning." She answered.
"Next year we go to your dad's house." Nancy commented.
Frank entered the room at that time. "I agree. Dad might have given us his house for our wedding present but with all of us in it we will be crowded." He kissed his wife.
Nancy smiled, "Is dinner ready?"
He gave an affirmative nod before he said anything. Frank gave his brother a hug and whispered something in his ear. Joe whispered something back.
Elayne and Nancy gave each other a look. Their husbands were up to something and before said anything farther they pulled the two apart. Nancy had to laugh at Frank's face. He put on a face of pure innocence with a hint of confusion. "What are you two up to?" She asked.
"Nothing. Go call George and the kids for dinner." Nancy did just that.
After dinner Ned arrived with a beautiful girl on his arms. Joe greeted her with a smile while Elayne watched from a few feet away. "Your wife seems to be watching you very carefully." Ned glanced back.
"She doesn't have anything to worry about. I only flirt with her." He alleviated Ned's fears as well as Elayne's.
"What are you worried that he will steal me away?" She placed a hand on Ned's chest.
"Not in the slightest!"
Nancy looked at Frank. "I don't even have to put the mistletoe up." Nancy smiled She was happy. She hadn't seen everyone so happy in a long time.
-Later in the evening-
Joe read to the kids while the women made up the beds and prepared for the morning guest. That was going to be at least six more people and one more child.
"Elayne." Nancy called to her.
"Yes, Nancy." Elayne glanced at her sister-in-law.
"We have something planned for the children. Your brother included. She had a six year old brother named Sam. "We need your help."
"I'll be happy to help." Elayne agreed.
Frank entered the room at the time. "Hi honey." He kissed her cheek before he joined her on the bed with Elayne. "Did she agree?"
"Yep. You get to finish telling her. I have work to do." Nancy left in the direction Joe had the kids.
"Uncle Joe; when are you going to have a baby? Everyone else has one."
Joe ruffled Alyssa'a hair. "All in God's timing."
Alyssa pushed his hand away. "Aunt Bess fixed my hair this morning. Nobody is supposed to touch it." Alyssa sounded very adultish as she repeated what her 'Aunt' had told her.
Nancy chuckled while George and Bess were cousins they were all closer than sisters. In fact all of them were fairly close because of everything that they had been through in the last few years. Even Ned had managed to become a friend once more.
George went to put the kids to bed while Nancy and Frank prepared plans for tomorrow. That was when everything would begin.

Okay guys I know that I have a few stories (a few dozen it seems at the moment) but it is Christmas and I had to get one of each going in the genres that I've been writing in. That is the Nancy Drew and card captors. That would mean that I will have 4 stories going on here on this site so if I'm late don't yell at me!
Oh and if you want to know about Elayne you will have to look up the story titled The Fairchild Affair by Lord Dreadnault.
Disclaimer: I don't own them. I just have fun writing them.
