TV-PG-DLV
It was now Friday morning in Quahog Rhode Island. It was 7:30 am, right around the time most people get up. In the Griffin house, Peter and Lois were already up, Peter getting ready for work, and Lois making breakfast for Meg, Chris, Stewie, Bubbles, Blossom, and Buttercup.
The girls were now just starting to wake up, and were now heading downstairs for breakfast. Well, Blossom and Buttercup were at least. As for Bubbles...
Bubbles felt bad that Stewie's crib broke the night before, so she decided to sleep with him through the entire night in a sleeping bag, and keep an eye on him while he slept. Unfortunately, she fell asleep as well, and couldn't keep an eye on Stewie. Thankfully nothing happened and they were both safe for the night.
She had gotten to sleep only a few hours ago, but she was up way before Stewie was. She waited for him to wake up so she could play with him, and luckily for her, she only had to wait 10-15 minutes for him to wake up.
Stewie, on the other hand, was not so pleased as to see Bubbles staring at him as he woke up.
"Ah, bitch! What the hell are you doing in my room!?" He shouted instantly as soon as he woke up. He did not even take the time to discover he was sleeping in a sleeping bag, and not in his broken crib. But once he finally calmed down, and took a good look around in his room, it all clicked into place. "My crib! Now I remember! The fat man broke my crib and I had to sleep on the floor!"
"Yeah, and I slept with you so you wouldn't feel lonely." Bubbles explained to him sweetly, then got out of her sleeping bag and helped Stewie out of his. "I kinda felt bad that you would be in here on the floor all by yourself, so I volenteered to sleep wtih you last night. You're so cute when you're asleep."
"And you're so much like a lesbian! You wouldn't happen to be related to John Travolta would you?" Stewie brushed himself off and headed out the door and made his way down the stairs. But before he was out of sight, he looked back for a moment and saw Bubbles looking back at him.
Her smile was so sincere and sweet Stewie couldn't help but smile back. After a moment, Bubbles stood up and walked towards Stewie, still smiling. She still had sleep in her eyes, but she didn't let that stop her. Stewie's smile grew as se got closer to him. He held out his hand for her to grab, which she did as soon as she got to him.
She giggled a little bit when she grabbed his hand, but she didn't let it get out of control, and stopped after a moment. The two made their way downstairs for breakfast.
While they were going downstairs, the pain that Bubbles felt when they were first in the Griffins' house suddenly returned. Her muscles were sore to the point of tearing, her fever returned, and her balance was gone. She stepped down on one of the stairs, and almost fell down and collapsed. But she was holding onto Stewie, and he held her tightly so she wouldn't fall.
Stewie helped her stay mobile and balanced the rest of the way down, but she was weak again. When they entered the kitchen, she almost fell again, and this time, it was harder for Stewie to hold her up.
"Are you alright?" He asked her as soon as she regain mobility.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She responded weakly. She then started coughing harshly. She couldn't hold herself up any longer, and she fell to the ground. Stewie caught her in time, and gently placed her on the ground on her stomach, where she laid for a moment before Lois noticed and rushed over to her aid and picked her and Stewie up.
"Oh my god! What happened?" SHe asked quickly as Bubbles started opening her eyes, which were now bloodshot.
"I was helping Stewie down the stairs...and I lost my balance twice. Plus, I'm burning everywhere, my muscles hurt, and I can't walk without falling." Bubbles said to her with her now hoarse voice. "Everything hurts."
"Really?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"Because those are exactly the same things your two sisters just told me happened to them. This is just too weird." Lois started carrying them both back upstairs. She went into the spare room, where Blossom and Buttercup were now in. Buttercup was fast asleep, but Blossom was lying awake in her side of the bed.
Lois placed Bubbles in her side of the bed, and placed Stewie right on the bed next to her.
"Now I'm going to bring you girls some soup, OK? I don't want you moving from this bed. Your condition is bad enough as it is."
"Don't worry, Mrs. Griffin. I didn't have any plans of moving, anyway. Now I feel like taking a long...nap..." Bubbles couldn't stay awake any longer. She slowly closed her eyes, and went to sleep again. Her breathing was shorter now, and very hoarse. Lois was worried for the girls more than ever now, but she did not get emotional.
"Stewie, watch the girls for me, OK?" Lois said before she left the room to get the girls breakfast. Stewie did not want to do such a thing, but deep inside him...deeply past all that 'world domination' crap, he felt bad for Bubbles.
"Oh brilliant parenting, Lois. Leave a 2-year old baby boy to watch six-year old triplets with weird powers that could possibly kill me! This is liking the fat man trying to learn how to ride a tricycle."
(Cue Cutaway)
Peter set out on his tricycle for the first time since childhood, ready to ride it and show off to his friends. He was around 30 at this time, and he had never learned how to ride a bike. So he was going to try and teach himself how to ride a bike. However, being the 225 pounds that he was, he was now too heavy for his bike to support him. So it fell apart, and he was soon now sliding in the streets on a broken seat.
He traveled at least 100 feet before he crashed into an illegally parked car, which broke the seat and crashed him into the glass window.
(End Cutaway)
Stewie took his attention away from his flashback for a moment, and turned it back to the sleeping Bubbles. She was out like a light as soon as she closed her eyes, and there was no chance of her waking up for at least 4 hours. She was squirming a lot in her sleep, and she even had tears fall down her eyes.
Stewie crawled up her side of the bed to wipe away the trickling tear. Afterwards, he grabbed her hand and held it tightly for a while. He never for a second let her out of his sight. Something deep, deep inside him was telling him to stay, and his concern for Bubbles grew stronger with each passing moment.
After a long moment of silence, Stewie stood up, and walked out of the room to his. He ran over to his teddy bear, and took it with him back to Bubbles.
He crawled up to the bed, made his way to Bubbles, and slowly gave her the teddy bear, being careful not to wake her. Unfortunately, she opened her eyes before he could walk away. She yawned and sat up to see she was holding Rupert, and giggled. Stewie couldn't help but smiled as well.
"Stewie, isn't this your teddy bear?" She couldn't have made it sound any sweeter.
"Yeah, but I think you might need him for now." Stewie replied, crawling back up onto the bed next to Bubbles. "My word, you look awful."
"Yeah, I feel awful too. I haven't felt this bad ever."
"Well, I'm sure after a little bit of rest, you'll be better and ready to play some more. And you can sleep with Rupert if you want."
"Really?"
"Sure. It's find by me."
"Oh thank you, Stewie." Bubbles was weak as ever, but she didn't let that stop her from giving Stewie a big hug and kiss. She giggled while she hugged him, and couldn't feel any warmer inside. After the bear hug, she plopped her head down on the pillow again and closed her eyes to try and get back to sleep. Stewie wanted to go back into his room and play with his other toys, but something inside of him was resenting that and forcing him to stay. But the weirdest part was...he was now starting to go with that feeling and enjoy it.
So he stayed there, right in that spot, for what seemed like hours. He did not move nor budge, and kept a close eye on Bubbles the entire time. Never once did that soft smile leave his face.
But soon enough he got tired and decided to take a little nap. He was too tired to walk all the way back to his room, and decided to lay there on the bed, right beside Bubbles. He was actually going to leave after a few minutes, but he actually did fall asleep on that bed, without once ever letting go of her hand.
Meanwhile, downstairs, Peter was about to leave for work when he caught his eye on Lois, who was carrying a tray with three soup bowls.
"Hey Lois, what's with the damn soup?" Peter asked her immediately. "I told you last month I can eat solid foods again! Jeez, what do you take me for? Some kind of idiot?"
"Well yeah, but this soup isn't for you. It's for the girls."
"What!? Ah, Lois, they're still sick?"
"Peter, we don't even know what the hell's wrong with them. They could have a pre-existing sickness, or skin cancer...or even heart disease, and we may not even know it! They could be dead up there for god's sake!"
"Hey, hey. Calm down, Lois. Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it!"
"Peter, this is serious! We need to take those girls to a doctor tomorrow to see what's wrong with them."
"Lois, you know that doctors can't always help with these kinds of things. Remember when I hired that discount surgeon?"
"Yes, and he accidentally burst a gland in your neck, and that's why you can't burn off that belly of yours!"
"Jeez, I thought you people were supposed to be jolly." Peter turned his back to Lois and opened the front door to head out. "Oh by the way, I'm staying late at the office."
"What? Why?"
"Because some bastard has been stealing the Pawtucket Beer and production has slowed down greatly. And I gotta meet my damn quota today or I won't gt paid. But I'll be home in time for dinner. Oh, and remember, if I come home to find you sleeping with another man I'll kill you both." And with that, Peter left for work.
Lois took the tray of soups upstairs into the girls' room. Inside, she found all three girls sleeping like logs, and Stewie still crawled up in a ball right beside Bubbles. Lois set the tray down on the table, picked up Stewie and tucked him under the blankets right next to her. Bubbles was still holding Rupert in her arms, and she didn't even noticed Lois tuck Stewie in next to her.
But after Lois had left the room, and Bubbles opened her eyes for the first time since going to sleep, she noticed him still asleep, right next to her in the bed. SHe smiled, gave him a kiss on his forehead, and handed him back his teddy bear, and then went back to sleep. It was like sisterly love...except they have their clothes on.
Over by the Pawtucket Brewery, where Peter was working, he had just alked in to start the day at his office desk. But the first thing he saw when he entered the building, he saw all his employeers, including her boss, sitting on the floor, watching a blank TV screen.
"Guys, what the hell are you doing?" He asked them all at once. "Don't you have some work to do, or something?"
"What's the point? All production has shut down all over the factory." One of his fellow workers said with depression.
"What!? H-How did this happen? Where's the beer?"
"Gone. Some kids have been stealing the beer from the delivery trucks and taking it all for themselves. No beer has come in or gone out in weeks! We have 12 cases of beer left in our fridge."
"Son of a bitch! That's terrible!"
"Tell me about it! If this keeps up, we'll all be out of jobs before the end of next month!"
"Oh man, I can't lose this job...hey wait a sec-" He took a quick look around and noticed that his boss, Angela, was not in today. "Has anyone seen Angela?"
"You mean your boss? Oh she didn't come in today. She said she was too scared about losing her job to come in today. She said something about putting her out of her misery."
But what that actually meant was that Angela wanted to put her dying car, who was 16, out of her misery. The workers tok it the wrong way.
"So now what are we going to do?"
"I don't know. Dammit, if I lose this job, I'll have to go back to my old fisherman gig."
"And I'll have to go back to my one man band stuff."
Both the worker and Peter just stood there, thinking hard about what they were going to do next. They practically had no job, no work to do, and nowhere to go until their day was over. But then, Peter got a crazy idea.
"Hey do you know if we still have that old TV set that we bought off the internet?"
"Yeah. It's in the closet. Why?"
"Because I just got a crazy idea!" Peter ran away from the room and into the kitchen, with his co-worker following him. Instead of going to get the TV, he went and found a waffle ironer, and stuck his hand in it, giving himself second-degree burns. "AH! AAH! AAAH!!" He took his hand out of the waffle ironer, and threw it away. "OK, that didn't work. Now about the TV..."
And just like Peter had planned, a half hour later, everyone in the factory was sitting in front of the TV set, watching a pornography movie that Peter had brought along. It was Peter's old movie that he made back when he was interested in chick flicks, entitled "Steel Vaginas".
"Oh man, Peter, you actually made this!?" Another one of his co-workers said to him.
"Yep. With nothing but the clothes in my back, the beer in my fridge, and my friends and family. I think it turned out pretty well."
They were in the middle of the scene where Vagina Hurtz (played by Lois Griffin, terribly I might add) was drowning in the ocean after "going in too soon after eating a sandwich".
"Help! Help!" But while she was just lying in the ocean, Peter, who was behind the camera, was dunking her head in the water, trying to actually drown her. But his hand always went into the shot, and made it hard to seem like she was drowing on her own.
"Look at that little bastard drowing in the ocean!" Peter commented about the movie, completely oblivious to the fact that it was actually him that made the movie, and it was his wife that was drowning in the ocean. "You shouldn't have gone into the ocean, little girl, until a half hour after that sandwich."
But just as the next scene was about to play, static began to sppear on the TV, and after a split second, another picture came up. The movie had been taped over. The next thing that came up was Jimmy Kimmel live.
"Oh man!"
"This is horrible!"
"Jimmy Kimmel live?"
"What the hell is this!?"
"Ah jeez, I forgot. Lois thought my movie was so bad that she taped over it with Jimmy Kimmel live. Too bad she never actually saw it that night. Ugh, this is so disappointing, and let me tell you, I've been through worse."
(Cue Cutaway)
Peter was in the delivery room with his wife. They were having their second child, Chris, and this time, Peter was prepared in case it was another girl. He had dresses, barbie dolls, and even diamond rings. But he was in for a big surprise.
"It's a boy!" The doctor announced, as soon as Lois had finished giving birth. He held up the baby, which would grow up to become a 14-year old elephant boy.
Peter was stunned. "C-C-Can you check again?"
(End Cutaway)
"Man, that porn movie was the only thing we had to look forward to now that we're practically jobless."
"What are we going to do now?"
"Boys, boys, I got it!" Peter said to them, calming them down. "We're gonna drink til he's hot!" (Referring to Jimmy Kimmel)
"Hey, that's just crazy enough to work! Someone go get the remaining beer crates from the kitchen!" And with that, everyone in the factory started drinking their little hearts out.
They sat there and mindlessly watched the Jimmy Kimmel live episode that was in front of them, and by the time it was only half over, they had already gone through 2 crates.
"Man, this stuff ain't half bad!" Peter exclaimed. "He's even better than Jay Leno!"
They were all very disappointed when they discovered the episode had ended, but were equally as estatic when they discovered there were 2 more episodes of Jimmy Kimmel live, one of which had Guillermo, his assistant, showing exclusive interviews with Manuel Uribe, the fattest man in the world.
"How much weight have you lost?"
"400 pounds in one year."
"Wow! That's one Rosie O' Donnell!"
End of Chapter 12.
Next time, the Professor joins the Griffins for dinner, and the Girls finally get to tell him they want to stay in Quahog. But a past rivalry between Ernie the Giant Chicken and Peter may change their view...or possibly cause more pain to them and kill them.
And coming up, Townsville isn't all that quiet with the Powerpuffs gone, there's always evil afoot.
And later, with Peter's job in jeopardy, what will he possibly do to support his family and the girls if they do decide to stay with them?
