-Chapter 52-

-Sugar pov-

I got lucky to be able to leave early. James worked his magic and I got released late last night. Now I am in school with the club. We are looking around the club room in silence.

"So" Pamela claps and walks toward the closet "Let's get started!"

"Started?" I share a confused expression with everyone "What are we getting started?"

"This!" Pamela opens the closet and reveals a bunch of boxes "We are decorating the room for Christmas! We will sing, drink hot cocoa, and surprise Cass!"

"How long have you had this ready?" Pamela shrugs and I shake my head with a smile "Let's get this started then"

Everyone cheers and we walk over to the closet. This is going to be fun hopefully. Pamela smiles as we start moving the boxes out. I give her a quick kiss and go back to helping.

"Alright" One of our club mates points at Pam "You start us off Rudolph"

"Rudolph" I get handed a red nose and a deer ear headband "No! No!"

"Sing!" She takes off and I chase after "I know the perfect song! Now get back here and become our Rudolph! We need a Rudolph!"

I hear the band start playing and smile. They know what's going on.

-Sugar singing-

Out of all the reindeers you know you're the mastermind

Run, run Rudolph, Randolph ain't too far behind

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town

Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down

Run, run Rudolph 'cause I'm reelin' like a merry-go-round

Said Santa to a boy child "What have you been longing for?"

"All I want for Christmas is a Rock and Roll electric guitar"

And then away went Rudolph a whizzing like a shooting star

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town

Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down

Run, run Rudolph, reeling like a merry-go-round

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town

Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down

Run, run Rudolph 'I'm reelin' like a merry-go-round'

Said Santa to a girl child "What would please you most to get?"

"A little baby doll that can cry, sleep, drink and wet"

And then away went Rudolph a whizzing like a Saber jet

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town

Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down

Run, run Rudolph I'm reelin' like a merry-go-round

I finally catch her and she puts on the stuff. I hug her as everyone laughs. She may be pouting but I can tell she's fine. She's happy everyone is happy.

This has worked out well so far.

-Time skip-

So far everything is looking great. We have fake snow all around the room. It was made with cotton and other white fabrics. We really have a winter wonderland right now.

Speaking of which I hear the piano going off. I turn to see Grace and Sam together. I love when grace plays the piano. She's been learning very quickly.

-Sam-Grace-Both-

Sleigh bells ring

Are you listening

In the lane

Snow is glistening

A beautiful sight

We're happy tonight

Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird

Here to stay is a new bird

He sings a love song

As we go along

Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman

Then pretend he is Parson Brown

He'll say: Are you married?

We'll say: No man

But you can do the job

When you're in town

Later on

We'll conspire

As we dream by the fire

To face unafraid

The plans that we've made

Walking in a winter wonderland

Winter wonderland

Yeah

In the meadow we can build a snowman

And pretend that he's a circus clown

We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman

Until the other kiddies knock him down

When it snows

Ain't it thrilling

Though your nose gets a chilling

We'll frolic and play

The Eskimo way

Walking in a winter wonderland

Yeah we're walking in a winter

Yeah we're walking in a winter

We're walking in a winter wonderland

Wonderland

Winter wonderland

"Wish we didn't have to make Kate watching over Cass" Grace pouts and leans into Sam "I hope this all goes well"

"We all do" Sam pull grace into her "It will work out perfectly! You will see"

I smile and go back to helping set everything up. I hope Kate and Fran are holding Cass off well.

-Fran pov-

"NO WAY!" Cass is playing on a computer like it's her first time "THERE ARE SO MANY GAMES ON HERE!"

"Cass?" She doesn't look up just nods "Have you ever played games on a computer before?"

"Nope" So it is her first time "Just use them for business and such"

"That's a sad life" Kate is writing in a tablet "Could I use this for the school paper?"

"And she has the sad life" Kate glares and I smirk "You do have a eye for news though"

"Thanks" She blushes and ducks her head "I wanna be on the news when I graduate"

I nod and think back to being snowed in "What do you think about Sam wanting to join military?" Her body tenses "Have you or grace talked with her?"

"We both have" She sighs and shakes her head "She seems to be so dead set that it's all she can do...that she isn't smart enough to make college and she needs to find herself"

"But she has all A's" we look at Cass confused "She has a A in every class! Well except math"

"Her secondary choice was teacher" I look over at Kate "Maybe she thinks since she is failing a class, she can't be a teacher?"

"That might be it" Kate sighs "I'll ask her about it later"

I nod and then go back to watching Cass happily play on the computer. I can honestly say, there is never a dull moment with these people.

-Time skip-Cass pov-

"But I wanna keep playing!" I pout as the two girls lead me to the choir room "I didn't get the water girl to her door!"

"You can play again later!" Fran pulls me to the door "We have a surprise for you!"

"Surprise!" I stop resisting and the girls almost fall "What are you doing?! Let's show me the surprise! Come on! I wanna see it!"

The chuckle and open the doors. I walk in and slowly spin around. There are decorations everywhere. It looks like a Christmas wonderland.

"Do you like it?" Soon my wives are in the room too "Pamela had this big idea and it didn't cost too much money honestly"

"I love it!" I hug them tightly "Thank you!"

"We just bought it all" I get spun toward the club "They did the hard work!"

"Thank you all" I wipe my tears of joy as I look around "It is absolutely beautiful!"

"You are an amazing teacher" I smile brightly and Pamela steps down "We also have some hot cocoa and more Christmas songs!"

"Well then what are we waiting for?" I bounce excitedly "Let's get our Christmas on!"

Everyone cheers and they move around the room. Christmas music starts and everyone starts dancing. Days like this is why I enjoy my job. Days like this is why I remover there is more to life.

I hope we can have more days like this in the future.
