Book 4: A Winter Wonderland

Chapter One: Snow Day [Winter 2008]

Music: I saw Daddy Kissing Santa-Clause

Dear Jason,

The first snows of winter showed up last night while we all slept though it. I am glad, well PJ is glad that it is a Sunday. Once Feebi was up all she wanted to do was play in the snow. It was the first time I had ever seen her tell her Papa no as he tried to get her inside for breakfast, not even pancakes worked.

The front yard is now filled with the tracks of her and PJ as he chased her around before he just fell backwards into the snow. Then she jumped on him with a big snowball hitting him in the face making him laugh with her.

Now they are both inside, him with his coffee and her and her hot coco sitting in front of the fire. She is all bundled up and still giggling a little. PJ is just grinning as he watches the fire. My plans are to finish this and snuggle up to him.

Love, Dad

Ken had given PJ his traditional crappy weather finger when PJ went to see if he wanted to go off on his jog and then went back downstairs to be warm with Micheal. Taye and Marty were of with the Millers celebrating Hanuka. Jason and Becky were at her parents, they were not ready to let he move in yet. This left the whole place more or less to Doug, PJ and Feebi.

"So what are you holiday plans?" Doug finally asked PJ.

"Well my old office buddies used to meet up as Nash's place in Pennsylvania, but we may just stay here." said PJ as he leaned up against Doug.

"Good, because Arthur wants to play you know who." smirked Doug. "and we do not want to disappoint him."

It took PJ a moment to figure out who he meant. "Well, last year I took her to see the professional one at Macy's so to have her own personal one will be nice." PJ whispered into Doug's ear.

"Well that is good, speaking of Arthur, he plays him at the shelter every year." Doug thought for a moment. "How would you feel about giving a hand this year?"

Without even thinking about it. "Sure no problem, what do you need seeing as you got the big guy filled."

"Well I don't really know, but anything would do." Replied Doug.

"I will see what I can come up with." PJ said snuggling Doug.

"Well knowing you it will be something else." giving PJ a peck on the cheek.

After a few minuets PJ pulled Doug up close to him watching Feebi climb up at the writing desk to do some serious drawing. "I have a big question for you." PJ eventually asked.

"Yes, what is it?" sensing a serious tone in PJ's voice.

"What are we?" said PJ now looking at Doug. "Are we an...us as Arthur and John have put it?"

Doug pondered for a moment. "Well I think we have become a couple. I think we went right past boyfriends and into a contented couple."

"Then you won't mind me doing something I have been want to do for some time?" PJ said with a light grin.

"Sure, what?" Doug asked a little puzzled.

"Well, I have been thinking about this since the Ferris Wheel." as he leaned over both of his hands on the side of Doug's head and gave him a deep kiss. It was not a world shattering kiss, but a strong one. One the both of them would remember for a long time. Doug put his hands on the sides of PJ and returned the kiss. It was a few moments later that they both stopped and just looked at each other.

PJ pulled Doug partially on his lap. "Now I know I am still getting used to all of this public displays of affection, but never let it stop you from showing it to me. I want you to get me over it. I want to feel comfortable giving to you."

Feebi looked over at her Papa and Dougy kissing and smiled to herself. Then she reached and got a new piece of paper as she had a new picture to draw.


PJ later called Arthur. He wanted to talk to Arthur about a few things he wanted done. Arthur said yes and ended up bringing John along, Arthur wanted PJ and John to become friends real bad.

Arthur looked at the newest pitcher of the fridge. "So this is Feebi's new one?"

"Ye-up" said PJ.

"So I take it you two are finally a real couple?" asked John.

"Ye-up" said PJ once again.

"Well it is about dam time." Arthur said giving PJ a playful punch in the arm.

"Ye-up" PJ nodded.

"Well I like it." said Arthur. "Strait and to the point, just you and Doug...I won't question to why he is blue, kissing while each of you both hold her hands. I think it is a masterpiece myself."

"Well that is part of the reason I asked you over here Arthur." PJ said.

"Wow so the Rum Runner can speak today." Joked John as he sat down.

"Yes I can." PJ said as he looked at Arthur who was looking over the rest of the fridge art. "I think I am ready to have the portrait done, something similar to that. I want to send it to my folks so they can see that I am happy."

The both of them looked at PJ for a moment before John spoke up. "Do they know?"

"Well I did tell them over the phone after Fuzzy died. Mom seemed ok, but dad kept asking me if I was ok with my lifestyle choice." PJ slowly spoke. "But I think they don't believe I am really happy. I am sure you could make them see this with one of your paintings." As he looked over at Arthur.

"Well that is an endorsement if I ever heard one." said John sipping on one of PJ's Pumpkin Ales.

"Hey man, not a problem, I would love to do it." Arthur said with a big smile on his face.

"I don't know Arthur it will be a challenge, after all they will have clothing on." joked John.

"Funny, real funny." joked back Arthur. "So anything else you wanted from us?"

"I did want to ask you some things..." PJ paused to think. "As you both have figured out by now I still have problems expressing my feelings, especially in public."

"Well I know you talk about yourself real good." said John "You do have the gift of gab."

"Funny you want to be hippie." PJ said. "Well, how do you guys just do it? You both have no problems just expressing how you feel about each other with out fear."

Arthur just let out a chuckle. "Well I am an expressive guy and John is usually just horny."

John just shrugged with a grin. "Ye-Up"

PJ just nodded with a chuckle. "So this is not some sort of special gay secret or guide book that I have just not been let on."

Arthur and John just chuckled before Arthur spoke up. "No nothing like that. Some people got it."

"Like Taye and Jesús." chimed in John.

"And others don't...like you or..." Arthur paused. "Well I am sure there are others."

"Gee thanks, I feel like the only gay guy who does not know how to be gay." said PJ with a smirk.

"I got some books that could help with that." offered John.

"It also has to do with your environment." said Arthur. "I know you grew up in a conservative environment and I take it your father was the one who has the issue with displays of public affection."

"Right on the button." said PJ "Boys don't show emotions, but girls are supposed to. Thanks at least I know my problem...thanks a lot dad for fucking me up."

"So is there anything else?" asked Arthur.

"Well Doug told me about you playing the big guy at the local shelter every year." looking at Arthur.

"Yes." Arthur said with a big smile. "What you want to get involved with it, you are a little big to be an elf."

"He would look good in green felt though." said John with a snicker.

"No nothing like that at all" said PJ throwing a pot holder a John.

"Well what is it." asked Arthur knowing that PJ tended have over the top plans.

"Well to start with, are you afraid of flying?" PJ asked Arthur with a twisted grin.

Dear Jason,

Well me and PJ are now officially a kissing couple. I would tell you about our first real kiss, but you probably don't want to read about things like that.

Feebi seems happy about it like you were when you first got here and saw Paulie and me. All she cares about is that her Papa is happy and her secret suppler of brownies is not going to go away anytime soon.

Ken and Micheal finally came out of the Art Cave and seemed to have been roped into something by PJ, along with Arthur and John. It also seems he will be trying to get you, Becky, Taye and Marty involved. He won't tell me what it is right now. He says it is in retaliation for my secret journals and then asked for Kathy's number. And something about starting to get even with Taye and Marty for playing matchmaker.

All I can tell you this will be a Christmas we should never forget.

Love, Dad.

Feebi sat watching Sunshine Forest Friends with Ranger Bob enjoying the Christmas Special with Taye and Marty. The story was centered on the Princess of Spring missing out on Christmas because she had to sleep though it so the rest of the Sunshine Forest Friends threw her a Winter Solstice party where they exchanged gifts where Old Man Showed up, an older white furred wolf who would be taking her place for the next few months.

"Well this is new?" Half said half asked Marty.

Taye nodded and looked at the show from an actors point of view and noticed the Princess of Spring spent most of her time standing behind hedges or was sitting down at a park bench and then let out a light chuckle. "I think she may be pregnant, those are things you do to hide such a thing on stage."

Marty thought about it and remembered a number of sitcoms where that happened and pulled out his iphone and started to tap away. "You are right, check it out on her Face Book Page, good eye."

Feebi looked up at the two of them. "Why would they hide such a thing?"

Taye and Marty looked at each other for a moment before Taye spoke up. "Well...they probably want to keep what is happening private. It could also be that the writers on the show did know how to work it in quite yet. She will be back though next spring." As he looked over at Marty's iphone.

After thinking for a moment Feebi nodded and went back to watching as now she moved here and there to see if she should see herself that the Princess of Spring was pregnant. As she did Marty changed his iphone over to record the whole thing for PJ. "I would not want him to miss this." said Marty.

Taye nodded. "And it is cute too."
