A/N: This is my first intentionally multi-chaptered story. I'm sorry if the story line is a bit crappy with my attempt to expand it.
I don't own Full House, otherwise the episode "Love on the Rocks" would have ended the way my other story has it end.
D.J. stood in the middle of the park her family was trying to clean up. She remembered coming here to play with her mother and later bring both Stephanie and Michelle with her to the playground. Simpler times. Now she was standing her, keeping her hands busy while in her mind waged a battle.
Nelson and Viper were both great guys. She cared about the both of them quite a bit. Yet they were polar opposites and they both wanted her. It had been a few days since she'd asked that they give her space to make a decision. She had ignored the calls from both of them while lying on her bed trying to puzzle it out. How could she make this choice? It was going to hurt one of them, which was something that she would hate doing. She just hoped that once she came to a decision, she could meet with both guys privately.
"Deej! I need to see you. I need to talk to you. You haven't talked to me, you won't return my calls. I'm going crazy without you, D.J." Viper, one of the aforementioned guys came running into the playground, drawing the attention of her entire family.
"Viper, what are you doing here? I told you I needed space." In her peripheral vision, she saw Nelson enter the park as well. "I haven't made my decision yet."
Nelson looked pleased when he heard that, "D.J. that's good, I've got a chance to prove how much you mean to me. Have you ever heard of the Four Seasons?"
"Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter?" D.J. looked at him in confusion. What in the world was Nelson talking about?
Nelson scoffed, "Yes, and Frankie Valli" At that, a man in a full suit walked in with a microphone and music started playing. "I had the park wired last night."
While listening to the song, DJ moved away from Nelson and was moved away from Viper by the singer. She continued to back up and with her hand over her heart, she intended to sit down on the swing to enjoy the song.
When she sat down, the unfinished swing-set gave way beneath her weight and as she landed on the ground, one of the metal bars struck her on the head…
"Where am I? Where did everyone go?" D.J. began to stand up and look around, but only managed to get into a seated position before the pounding in her head brought her up short. Slowly looking around, she could see that she was on the ground in the park, but that she was the only one there. "No, no no no no. This isn't possible. I was just in a park full of people and some guy my dad seemed pretty impressed with was singing to me. How in the world did everyone disappear so fast?"
"Deej. You're still in the park, but you got knocked out. A piece of the metal holding the swing set together hit you on the head when it fell." This was a voice D.J. would never forget. This was the voice of Steve Hale, her first love.
"Steve? What are you doing here? And what are you talking about?" she tried to stand again, and Steve rushed over to help her.
"Woah, take it easy. Don't try to stand up too fast. I mean, we're not actually here. This is in your head. You're trying to decide between two guys, right?" He kept an arm firmly around her waist while to make sure she wasn't going to fall over. "Well, I'm here to help you."
"Help me how, exactly? And since you are not one of the two guys I'm trying to decide between, you should probably let go of my waist." D.J. tried to twist away from him, but the sudden movement made her head ache even worse.
"Not a chance, D.J. This might only be a dream, but I'm not letting you fall. And you really don't think I can help? Come on, we were each the other's first love. There's no way that you think I can help you to decide if you should be with either one of these guys?"
"What do you mean 'with either one of these guys?' Are you telling me you don't think I should be with either of them? Because I'll have you know that they are both great guys. They are caring, sweet, they like seeing me happy- " Dream-Steve cut D.J. off by putting a finger to her lips.
"And yet you can't decide between them. Tell me, if I was the second guy and you were trying to decide between me and Viper or me and Nelson, how hard would it be?" He smiled down at her and he could see the realization dawn in her eyes as she slowly started to smile back.
"It wouldn't even be a contest: you. I would choose you without any hesitation. But is that even possible? I mean, we broke up for a reason, Steve, how do I even go about finding my way back to you?"
"Well, I'm just in your head, here to help you figure out what to do. If you want to know that, you'll just have to wake up and go find the real me yourself." Dream-Steve started to get fuzzy and his last words seemed a little garbled. "Did you hear me, D.J.? I said did you hear me?"
