What Now? Chapter 15
July had finally arrived. And on July 11th, Stacy would legally be an adult. The first day, Pizza Steve and Stacy decided to go out and ride Pizza Steve's speedcycle around for a little bit. As they were leaving, Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa warned them about the weather. It was supposed to storm really badly and they didn't want them to get stuck somewhere. Not too long after they went out, the sky quickly went from sunny, to cloudy and dark.
It started to sprinkle when they made it to the park. Then, it suddenly got really bad. They both pulled Pizza Steve's speedcycle under the playset. They hugged tightly, and sat in the mulch under the playset as it rained harder. "Well, looks like we're going to be here a while." Pizza Steve glumly said. An hour had passed, and the rain still hadn't let up. "We're gonna have to just go home in the rain." Pizza Steve said, standing up. "There's no way we can drive that home, it'll get blown away." Pizza Steve was standing, facing Stacy, when the wind knocked him back down. "Maybe you're right." He fretted as he continued to hug tightly onto Stacy.
"I'm cold, I wish we brought a blanket." Pizza Steve stuttered as he quivered. "I'm surprised Uncle G hasn't come to get us yet." They waited another hour and it was still raining really badly, but then suddenly, the RV drove up next to the playset. "There you two are!" Uncle Grandpa exclaimed, as he ran out of the RV and over to them. Mr. Gus followed behind him, and grabbed Pizza Steve's speedcycle. Uncle Grandpa grabbed Pizza Steve and Stacy's hands and lead them into the RV. He took them to the couch and went to grab a blanket.
After a while, when they started to warm back up, Pizza Steve and Stacy went to Stacy's room to get ready for bed and settle down for the night. When it got real late, they hopped into Stacy's bed and went to sleep. In the middle of the night, Pizza Steve woke up in a panic. His quick movement woke up Stacy. "What's wrong babe?" She asked, she could see him sweating. "I had a horrible bad dream." "What about?" "You." "What happened?" "You.. set me on fire... then ate me." "Oh, wow. That's weird. You know I'd never do that to you." "I know, it was just scary to see." Stacy cuddled him tightly, and they went back to sleep.
The next morning, Pizza Steve and Stacy headed to the kitchen for breakfast as soon as they woke up. Stacy had to work later that afternoon and wouldn't be home until super late. Once Stacy left for work, Pizza Steve went about his day, and did what he normally does when Stacy's not around. When it was time to go to bed, Pizza Steve got into Stacy's bed. He woke up in the middle of the night again from the same nightmare. Since Stacy wasn't there to cuddle him, he got upset and started to snivel. As he was crying quietly, Stacy arrived home. Pizza Steve heard the bedroom door open, and grabbed his sunglasses quickly. "Pizza Steve? What's wrong, baby?" She asked, walking over to him. "It's nothing, I just had that dream again." Pizza Steve took his shades off, and rubbed away his tears.
"Aw, you poor thing! Hold on, just let me take a quick shower, then I'll come to bed." Stacy took a quick ten minute shower. She hopped into bed next to Pizza Steve and they cuddled until they fell asleep. Pizza Steve woke up before Stacy at 5:30am and couldn't get back to sleep. So, he decided to play some video games until Stacy woke up. She woke up around 9am, when she heard the sound effects from the video game, she sat up and rubbed her eyes to see what was going on. "Oh, hey." She said once her vision wasn't so blurry. Pizza Steve replied inattentively "Hey." "What time did you wake up?" "5:30." "5:30?" "Yeah, I couldn't sleep." Pizza Steve paused his game. "Now that you're awake, wanna grab some breakfast? I can smell Uncle G making some waffles." "Sure, just let me brush my hair. I'll meet you out there." "Ok, but don't be too long." "I won't." Stacy blew Pizza Steve a kiss as he headed towards her bedroom door. He blew one back.
Stacy was done brushing her hair within ten minutes. She joined her friends for breakfast and they all went out to get some fireworks for the next day. They went to a local fireworks store, Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa got a cart and started to look around while Pizza Steve and Stacy ran off to look themselves. Tiger went off to look around too but ended up getting distracted by a gumball machine. As they were looking around, Pizza Steve and Stacy found a huge set of big fireworks. In excitment, they ran back to Uncle Grandpa and Mr. Gus. They begged them to come check out what they found. Once Uncle Grandpa and Mr. Gus saw what they wanted, Pizza Steve and Stacy begged and pleaded for it. Uncle Grandpa thought it looked cool, so they ended up getting it. The set was expensive so they didn't get much more after that.
When they got home, Mr. Gus put the fireworks up so no one could mess with them. Uncle Grandpa started lunch, while Pizza Steve and Stacy played some music on their guitars in the living room. As soon as lunch was ready, they all gathered around the table to eat. Pizza Steve and Stacy ate as quickly as possible because they wanted to go outside to swim. Mr. Gus went out with them to keep an eye on them.
They swam for about an hour before they got bored. Pizza Steve wanted to go to his room to play video games, but Stacy wanted to go practice more guitar. A small argument about what they should do for the rest of the night turned into a big argument about something completely different. Uncle Grandpa was walking past Stacy's room when he heard shouting coming from the other side of the door. He knocked, and went in when he heard them shout "come in". "What's going on in here?" "He never respects my privacy!" Stacy fumed. "She doesn't appreciate what I do for her!" Pizza Steve shouted. "...oook... Is that what you're both fighting about.?" Pizza Steve and Stacy's anger turned into confusion. They stared at each other silently for a minute before Pizza Steve said "I don't remember what we originally fighting about.." "I don't either." "Well then, why don't you just stop fighting? You know you love each other no matter what." "Might as well." "What do we do now?" Pizza Steve asked. "Wanna go take a ride on your speedcycle?" "Sure." They ran out of Stacy's room and outside.
They rode over to the ice cream parlor to get some gelato. They ate their ice cream inside. As they were eating, Pizza Steve went off to the bathroom. While he was gone, a couple kids came up to Stacy. They found it fascinating that Stacy was a living slice of pizza. They were asking her questions and putting their hands on her. It made her nervous and uncomfortable. She was super close to snapping and cursing them out. Just before she snapped, Pizza Steve came up and told the kids off. They were going to mess with him too, but as they reached out, Pizza Steve smacked their hands. Feeling slightly intimidated, the kids backed off. Pizza Steve and Stacy headed back to the speedcycle and went home.
They were walking back to Stacy's room when Stacy noticed her bedroom door was cracked open. "Huh.. I could've sworn I shut my door." She pushed it open and a bucket of water fell onto her. She did close her door, but Pizza Steve went behind her and set up a little prank. He laughed as he pulled the bucket off her. "Oh wow.. soooo funny.." she said sarcastically. Stacy went to her bathroom to dry herself off with her hair dryer. When she came out a few minutes later, she hopped on her bed next to Pizza Steve. She grabbed her remote and press the power button, but her TV didn't turn on. "What the heck!?" She got angrier as she kept pressing the button but to no avail. Stacy threw the remote across the room. "Guess my TV doesn't work!" she raged. Pizza Steve started to giggle. "What's so funny!?" "You're so gullible! I unplugged the TV!" "Stop with your pranks, Pizza Steve! It's getting annoying." She said, getting up and plugging her TV back in. "Ok, ok. I'll stop."
They went to bed late and woke up the next morning to the smell of pancakes. Feeling super hungry, they hopped out of bed and headed to the kitchen. "Happy 4th of July!" Uncle Grandpa exclaimed as Pizza Steve and Stacy walked into the kitchen. "Oh, yeah! I forgot about that. I can't wait for the fireworks tonight!" Stacy said. "Yeah, it'll be awesome!" Pizza Steve added. They gobbled up their breakfast, then went with Mr. Gus to get out the fireworks. "I better not catch you two messing with these fireworks!" Mr. Gus demanded as Pizza Steve and Stacy got jumpy with excitement. "Yeah, yeah, we won't mess with them." Pizza Steve replied.
When the time for fireworks finally came, the gang went outside. The fireworks lasted for a couple hours, and they were amazing. They all had a great time. When they were all done, everyone went inside. Except Pizza Steve and Stacy. They decided to hang out for a bit before going in. As they were outside, Stacy found a firework they hadn't set off yet. "We should set this off." Pizza Steve insisted as they looked at it. Stacy agreed, and they set it off. The boom was loud, and impacted Pizza Steve and Stacy to the ground. They couldn't remember anything that happened after they set off the firework. They couldn't even remember what the firework looked like. They sat up and rubbed their crust. "Hold on, I'm confused. How am I looking at myself?" Pizza Steve said. "That's weird, it looks like I'm sitting infront of myself." Stacy added. "Wait.. AM I YOU?" Pizza Steve panicked. "That's not possible." Stacy insisted before she went to rub her eyes. Instead of rubbing her eyes, her hands hit something hard. "What?" She pulled on it, when she looked down, it was Pizza Steve's sunglasses.
"Why do I have your shades?" She asked in confusion. "Why do I have your hair!?" Pizza Steve shouted when he felt her soft hair. "OMG we swapped bodies!" Stacy exclaimed. "Was it the firework?" "Had to be! But how? Why? Where did we get that?" They got up and ran inside to Uncle Grandpa. "Uncle G! Uncle G!" They yelled, racing inside. "What's going on?" "We swapped bodies!" "Oh cool!" "No, Uncle G! It's not cool!" Stacy hollered. "How did it happen?" "We found a firework in the grass, set it off, then BOOM! We swapped bodies." "That's what that firework does..." Belly Bag interrupted. "What are you talking about, Belly Bag?" Stacy asked. "I found it inside me. I left it in the grass and forgot about it. I guess that's what it meant by magic firework." "Why would you leave it in the grass!?" Pizza Steve shouted. "I forgot about it!" "Everyone calm down. We'll fix this!" "How?" "There's probably another firework inside Belly Bag. Maybe it'll undo this. I'll go in to look for it, but you two will have to be stuck like this until I find it." "Ok, just hurry Uncle G." Stacy said.
Uncle Grandpa went into Belly Bag to look around. Pizza Steve and Stacy went to sit on the couch, hoping that it won't take long. "How do you live with this hair?" Pizza Steve asked, pushing the hair out of his view. "It gets annoying but I like it. How do you live seeing the world this dark?" "It makes me feel like I'm in my own little world, and closed off from everything." They sat quietly for a few minutes. "I love you and all; but I prefer touching you with my own body, not your body." Stacy said. "Funny because I'm enjoying this."
They had been sitting there for an hour before Uncle Grandpa came back. "Did you find it!?" Stacy exclaimed, jumping off the couch. "Yep!" They went outside and set it off. Once again, there was a loud boom and Pizza Steve & Stacy fell down. It worked, and they were themselves again. Pizza Steve and Stacy went back inside and went to Stacy's room. "It's funny, typically, people would need to sit and think about what just happened. But, not us, we just move on. We're so used to weird things like that." "Yeah, but it was nice to be you for a while." "Oh yeah?" "Yeah. You're totally sexy!" Stacy smacked his shoulder. "Shut up!" She giggled, as she blushed.
Since Stacy had to get up early for work the next morning, she got into bed around 9pm and Pizza Steve slept in his own bed. When it was time for Stacy to get up, she took a quick shower and headed out. Uncle Grandpa was the only one awake when she was leaving, he was making breakfast for everyone and offered her some before she left. She declined his offer, knowing she'd be late. While Stacy was at work, Mr. Gus and Pizza Steve went out with Uncle Grandpa to help some kids. They arrived home at about 3pm and still had five hours before Stacy was expected to be back. Feeling bored, Pizza Steve decided to hang out in the living room with Uncle Grandpa and show off some karate moves that he'd been practicing with Stacy. Pizza Steve got bored again within an hour, then he went off to his room to play some video games.
Time flew by so fast and before Pizza Steve knew it, Stacy was home. But, she was exhausted. Pizza Steve wanted to practice karate, and guitar, and ride his speedcycle and many other things. But all Stacy wanted to do was sleep for a little bit. Her feet were killing her. She went into her bedroom to lie down, and Pizza Steve followed her. Stacy got into her bed and closed her eyes. About five seconds later, she felt Pizza Steve cuddle up next to her. She scooted closer to him, and they cuddled. When it was time for dinner, Uncle Grandpa came in looking for them. Pizza Steve and Stacy were fast asleep in each other's arms. Instead of waking them up, Uncle Grandpa let them be. He did however bring in some plates of food for when they woke up.
Pizza Steve woke up to the smell of the food as soon as Uncle Grandpa left the room. "Stacy, wake up. Uncle G brought us dinner." He said, shaking her body gently. She sat up and rubbed her eyes. "What smells so good?" "I told you, Uncle G brought food." "Oh, I didn't hear you, I wasn't awake yet." They got up, grabbed the plates, and sat back on Stacy's bed to eat. When they finished, they brought the plates out to the kitchen. Mr. Gus was at the table reading, and Uncle Grandpa was cleaning up from dinner. "There you are, sleepy heads! Did you like your dinner?" "Yeah!" They both replied.
As they were getting closer to bed time, Stacy took a quick shower then hopped in bed with Pizza Steve to watch a movie before they went to sleep. They fell asleep before the movie ended. Stacy woke up to a horrible headache the next morning so, she made a bowl of cereal for Pizza Steve and brought it in to him. "Peezy, wake up babe. I brought you some breakfast." She said, softly. When he woke up, Stacy helped him sit up. She handed him the bowl of cereal, then went to brush her hair.
"Too bad I didn't wake up before you. I was going to cook breakfast for you." Pizza Steve said as Stacy walked back into her bedroom. "You were..?" "Yep! And it was going to be delicious." "Do you remember the last time you cooked something? It was those pancakes, we were covered in the mix and they turned out burnt. I can cook better and less messier than you." "I doubt it! I'm the best cook around!" "How about we have a cook off then?" "Uncle G would never let us cook." "HA trying to get out of it because you know you'll lose?" Without saying a word, Pizza Steve hopped out of bed and headed for the kitchen. Stacy followed behind him. "Uncle G!" He started, walking into the kitchen. "Yes, Pizza Steve?" "Me and Stacy want to cook pancakes." "Ok, go right ahead."
They got out their supplies and started. It was nothing too special, they cooked their pancakes then the two of them sat down to try each others. They each took a bite of the other's pancakes. As they were eating, Pizza Steve spit out Stacy's pancakes. "That's gross." "Come on, you know they're better!" "Nah, something's wrong with these." "Yeah right!" Stacy exclaimed as she scooped up some of the pancakes. She tasted them, and spit them back out. "Wow, they are bad." She took her fork and moved the pancakes around to inspect them. "I burned them!" "HA! Now it's you who burned the pancakes." "Ok, you win." "YES!" Pizza Steve shouted as he jumped up.
Later that afternoon, Stacy headed off to work. While she was gone, Pizza Steve went along with Uncle G to help some kids. Just before Stacy arrived home, Pizza Steve got back home and decided to watch TV on the couch while he waited for her. An hour after watching TV, Stacy came stomping in. "Woah; what's wrong with you?" "I had a terrible day at work." "Oh yeah? I know what'll make you happy..." "Don't... Don't you do it..." Pizza Steve jumped off the couch. He smiled as he walked towards her. He looked into her eyes and continued to smile at her. It didn't take long for Stacy to break. "Dang it! You know I love your smile! Now I'm mad because you made me happy!" Pizza Steve pulled her close; "I knew that would work." He said, just before he started to kiss her.
Their lips stayed locked as they started to walk towards Stacy's room. When they got into her room, Stacy closed and locked the door. They continued to kiss as they made their way over to Stacy's bed. After their fun, Pizza Steve slept in Stacy's bed. No one heard from the two of them for the rest of the night.
Stacy got up at the crack of dawn to get ready for work. She doesn't typically work on Sundays, but two people called out sick. Pizza Steve slept the entire time Stacy was getting ready for work. Before she left, she kissed his cheek and covered him more with the blanket. While she was walking to work, she texted Pizza Steve saying where she was going and when she got off so he could see it when he woke up. Pizza Steve woke up at about 10 am. By that time, Stacy had been at work for three hours. He texted her back telling her to have a good day and Stacy was able to glance at it as soon as she received it.
Stacy got off work at 5 pm. She worked a 10 hour day and to her surprise, Pizza Steve was outside on his speedcycle waiting for her. She ran up to him, grabbed her helmet from his hands, and hopped on. "I got you a little something while you were at work, but you have to do a few things before you can have it." Pizza Steve told her as he driving them home. "Really? What is it?" "Remember that coffee scented candle you've been looking for?" "Yeah, why?" "I may or may not have found it..." "NO, Pizza Steve, you didn't!" "Yep, I did! But, you have to do a few things for me first." "Omg, I'll do anything!" "Good! We'll start when we get home."
When they got home, Pizza Steve headed to Stacy's room. Here's the deal; you do whatever I say for the rest of the day, and I'll give you the candle." "That's it? Alright!" "Ok, the first thing I want you to do is rub my feet." "This will be so easy!" Stacy grinned as she walked over to Pizza Steve who had jumped up on her bed. She started rubbing his feet, ten minutes later Pizza Steve got tired of it and told her to stop. "Now, got get me some ice cream." Stacy ran out of the room and came back with a big bowl of triple chocolate ice cream. "Here you go! I'll even feed it to you!" Once Pizza Steve was done with the ice cream, he demanded Stacy run him a warm bubble bath. Stacy happily did so, and hung out with him while he was in the tub.
As they were in the bathroom, Uncle Grandpa came into Stacy's bedroom to tell them that dinner was ready. "Stacy!" He shouted aloud when he couldn't find them. "Yep?" She replied, walking out of her bathroom. "Dinner is ready." "Oh, can bring a plate of food for Pizza Steve and I to share? I'm helping Pizza Steve take a bath." "Sure!" "What did Uncle G want?" Pizza Steve asked when Stacy walked back into the bathroom. "He said dinner is ready, so I asked him to bring some food." Uncle Grandpa came back within a few minutes with a plate of food. He left it on Stacy's bed and informed her that he left it there.
After Pizza Steve's bath, the two of them hopped into Stacy's bed and shared the plate of food. When they were done, Stacy took the plate back to the kitchen. She wasn't gone long but when she got back into her room, Pizza Steve was fast asleep. She tucked herself in next to him and went to sleep for the night. The next morning, when Stacy opened her eyes, she saw Pizza Steve staring back at her. She screamed as she pushed herself back against her pillow. "Oh my gosh, you scared me! What are you doing?" "Waiting for you to wake up." "Did you have to stare right into my eyes?" "I wanted to be the first thing you saw when you woke up." "Well, you succeeded." "The real reason I did is because..." Pizza Steve reached behind his back, and pulled out the coffee scented candle he promised he'd give Stacy. "Here, you earned it." "Omg, omg! Thank you baby!" She exclaimed as she jumped up and grabbed the candle. She then took a big whiff off it. "Ooooh! It smells so good!" She tackled Pizza Steve and repeatly kissed his face. "Oh, thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I love love love it!"
Stacy went into her bathroom to shower and get ready for work. She was working until 2 pm then the gang was going to a water park for the rest of the day when she got off. When she was all clean and ready, Stacy headed off to work. Uncle Grandpa gave her a banana to eat on her way out. The RV was waiting for Stacy outside the diner when she got off work, and they went straight to the water park. They spent the rest of the day there. When they got back into the RV, Stacy and Tiger had a sleepover since it had been a while. Pizza Steve tried joining them but they insisted that it be just the two girls that night. They had so much fun watching movies, playing games, and talking about all the girl things they don't talk about when the guys are around. It was nice, Stacy enjoys nights with Tiger because she feels Tiger is the only one she can talk to about certain things. Since they are the only girls and all.
The girls stayed up late and slept in the next day. The gang let them sleep in because they had a lot to get done. It was the 11th which meant it was Stacy's birthday. For breakfast, Uncle Grandpa and Mr. Gus made a buffet of all Stacy's favorite breakfast food. They made; french toast, cinnamon rolls, chocolate donut holes, blueberry muffins, and cut up banana slices. Tiger and Stacy woke up to the smell of the breakfast. They showered and got all clean before they went out to the Kitchen. When they went out, the guys sang happy birthday to Stacy and gave her a birthday sash. The gang showed her to the table, and they all ate breakfast. As they were eating, Stacy got a call from her mom who was calling to wish her a happy birthday. Her dad also called her to wish her a happy birthday. They were having a party at the RV later the evening, Stacy's mom and brother were going to come but Stacy's dad couldn't get off work.
After breakfast, Uncle Grandpa gave Stacy some birthday money so that Stacy and Tiger could go shopping for the day. While the girls were gone, the guys set up the party. Stacy and Tiger were done shopping within two hours. They made their way back to the RV but they weren't done setting up so when they tried to go into the RV Pizza Steve turned them away. Stacy and Tiger decided to go get some ice cream to give them some more time. After a couple more hours, Pizza Steve gave Stacy a call, letting her know they could come back to the RV.
The guys decided to go with the Rock Star theme they did last year. The living room was covered in red and black decorations. Stacy and Tiger were stunned when they walked in and saw the amazing job they did decorating. As the gang was talking, Beary Nice and Hotdog Person brought in a bunch of gifts that the guys had bought for Stacy. "Happy birthday Stacy!" Beary Nice exclaimed as he went to hug her. "I hope you have a beary good day!" He said as he hugged her tightly. "Happy birthday Stacy." Hotdog person added. "Thanks you guys!"
Within minutes, a bunch of their friends showed up. From Beary Nice and Hotdog Person to Charlie Burgers, tons of people showed up. As they were partying, a special guest showed up. Pizza Steve answered the door and let them in before Stacy noticed. "Can I have everyone's attention for a second!" Uncle Grandpa shouted. The music stopped and everyone turned towards Uncle Grandpa, who was standing by the door. "We have a special guest for Stacy!" Just then, a little slice of pizza came out from behind Uncle Grandpa. It was Monique. Stacy and Monique both squealed as they ran up to each other. They hugged each other tightly. "OMG I can't believe you're here! How did you know about this party?" "Did you really think I would miss my favorite cousin's 18th birthday?" "Good point, but how did you get off work?" "I've had this time off for a month now. I requested this week off because I didn't want to miss your birthday! And I'm staying for the rest of the week!" "I'm so happy I don't know how to react!"
"I even picked up your cake too!" Monique grabbed the cake from Uncle Grandpa and walked towards Stacy. As she was walking, she tripped. The cake went flying and landed right in front of Stacy. She was covered in pink frosting. Everyone gasped, then they were all quiet, nervous about how Stacy was going to react. "Oh my gosh, Stacy. I so so so sorry!" Stacy was quiet for a few seconds but then started to laugh. Everyone started to laugh with her as she started to lick her frosting covered hand. Mr. Gus cleaned the frosting out of her hair with a wet paper towel as Stacy continued to lick the frosting on her hand.
Monique and Tiger helped Stacy get cleaned up in Stacy's bathroom. "Again, I'm really sorry Stacy." "Don't worry about it! Accidents happen and it was funny!" "Yeah but now you don't have a cake." "I licked the frosting, it was really good! Plus, we have a bunch of gelato. Everything is ok!" Stacy finished cleaning up and the girls went back to join the party. "Alright, time for cake!" Uncle Grandpa shouted as the girls entered the living room. Confused, the girls walked to the kitchen to see what was going on. As they got closer they saw a big, five tier cake on the kitchen table. "What!? How!?" Stacy exclaimed. "I knew you had a cake but I wanted to surprise you with this cake I made using one of Grandma's recipes. It was for you and your friends for the next few days but after what happened..." "Wow mom! This is amazing! Thank you!" "You're welcome!"
Everyone had some cake then they did presents. For dinner, Uncle Grandpa ordered pizza. After pizza, everyone just enjoyed the rest of the night. They danced, hung out, and even played some games. It was getting late as the party was ending. When everyone was gone; Stacy, Monique, and Tiger went to Stacy's room to help Monique unpack. As they were talking and hanging out, Stacy's mom came in, wanting to talk to her for a minute.
She took Stacy out into the hallway. "Stacy, now that you're 18 I wanted to give you something very important." She reached into her purse and pulled out a gold colored ring. "This was your Grandma's ring. I want you to have it. She always told me it was her lucky ring, your Grandpa proposed to her with this ring. She insisted it brought great things to her marriage; not sure how true that is but, I want to give you this so maybe it'll bring good things to your relationship with Pizza Steve." "Wow... I don't know what to say. Thank you." They hugged, then Stacy's mom and brother headed home. Stacy went back into her room to tell Monique and Tiger about the ring.
After a while, Pizza Steve came in looking for Stacy. "Hey cici, can I borrow you for a few minutes?" "For what?" "I'll tell you out in the hallway, come on!" Stacy got up and went with Pizza Steve. "What is it that you want?" "I want to do some birthday canoodling and stuff." "Ok, let's make this quick." They went to Pizza Steve's room and went back to Stacy's room within thirty minutes. "What did Pizza Steve want? You two were gone for a while..." "Oh, it's nothing, he just wanted to talk."
It was getting real late, so the girls settled down and went to sleep. The next morning, Stacy decided that today would be the perfect day to get Pizza Steve back for the pranks he did a few days ago. She started by pranking call him; but she couldn't use her phone, Pizza Steve would know it's her. Stacy woke up Monique and told her the plan. Monique thought it was funny, and gave Stacy her phone. Monique watched as Stacy called Pizza Steve. "Hello, this is... um... brooke calling from your local ice cream parlor to inform you that you've won our contest of free ice cream for a year! Yes, just come down around 2 pm this afternoon. Sounds good, bye." Stacy hung up the phone and the girls started to laugh, waking up Tiger. They told Tiger what they did, she also thought it was funny.
When the time arrived for Pizza Steve to go to the ice cream parlor, the girls headed out before Pizza Steve. They hid on the side of the building and watched Pizza Steve go in. After ten minutes, Pizza Steve came out in a huff. The girls walked out from the side of the building. "Looking for Brooke?" Stacy said, in the voice she used on the phone. "Was that you?" "Yep! Prank!" The girls laughed as Pizza Steve started to walk back to the RV.
They went about their day but when Pizza Steve came into Stacy's room looking for her, she wasn't there. Monique and Tiger were in Stacy's room and told Pizza Steve that she was in her bathroom; taking a bath. He went in but still couldn't find her. He stood silently, confused. Suddenly, Stacy screamed as she jumped out of a pile of clothes, scaring Pizza Steve. He screamed then quickly realized it was Stacy. He quietly got up and walked out of Stacy's closet as Stacy fell to the floor laughing. Stacy had just one more prank set up for Pizza Steve. He went to leave Stacy's room and as he pulled the door open, a bucket of water fell onto him. "Doesn't feel so good, does it?" Stacy asked, walking out of her closet. She went over to Pizza Steve and pulled the bucket off him. "You're so gullible!" She joked. "Ok! I get it! You didn't like the pranks I did, I'm sorry." "Apology excepted!" Stacy helped him up and took him to her bathroom to help him dry.
That night, Pizza Steve slept in Stacy's bed. The four of them watched movies until they fell asleep. Pizza Steve got up in the middle of the night and went to sleep in his bed. The girls woke up to the sun shining through the curtains the next morning. If it wasn't for the smell of cinnamon rolls coming from the kitchen, they wouldn't have gotten up so quickly. As they sat down at the table, Uncle Grandpa placed a big plate of cinnamon rolls in front of them. They ate quickly because they planned to go swimming. While they were in the pool, Uncle Grandpa and Pizza Steve went out to help some kids. They got out of the pool around lunch time and when they went inside, Mr. Gus had made them some sandwiches for lunch.
The girls chilled out on the couch and watched TV for a bit before Uncle Grandpa and Pizza Steve came back. When they arrived home, Uncle Grandpa and Pizza Steve sat down to play some board games with the girls. The three guys, and three girls, played board games for a few hours. They ordered pizza for dinner; so until it arrived, they played games and just hung out, enjoying each other's company. After dinner, the girls headed off to Stacy's room for the night. Until it was time to get into bed, the girls just talked for a few hours about anything they could think of.
They fell asleep one by one around 3am. Early in the morning, Pizza Steve tiptoed into Stacy's room and got in bed with her to cuddle. As Pizza Steve snuggled up to Stacy, he woke her up. "What are you doing?" Stacy groaned. "I want to cuddle." Stacy wrapped her arms around Pizza Steve mindlessly and pulled him closer to her. They cuddled for a couple hours until Monique and Tiger woke up. Pizza Steve chilled in Stacy's bed as the girls got ready for the day, then they all headed out to the kitchen for breakfast. Mr. Gus made them all some french toast. After breakfast, the four of them went outside to hang out and do a little swimming while Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa finished up their morning coffee.
Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa eventually joined them outside. It was one of those days where they spent the whole day outside. Only coming inside to eat and go to the bathroom. As it got darker outside, they set up a campfire and roasted marshmallows. They went to bed late, and slept in the next morning. Even Uncle Grandpa slept late. It was Monique's last day there. The girls spent the whole day outside, mostly swimming, once again. As the sunset, the girls went inside to shower and help Monique pack. Compared to the night before, the girls went to bed pretty early. They were all tucked into their beds by 9 pm. They watched TV until they fell asleep and even let it run all night.
Everyone, except Pizza Steve, woke up at 5 am to say goodbye to Monique and drop her off at the airport. "Thanks for coming to my birthday party and staying with us." Stacy said as her and Monique hugged. "You're welcome. I'm glad I didn't miss it." They hugged and said their goodbyes then as Monique left they headed back to the RV. Everyone went back to bed for a few hours. Pizza Steve woke up a couple hours later and got in bed with Stacy. Once again, as Pizza Steve got in bed with Stacy, he woke her up. "Cuddling again, Pizza Steve?" "Yeah, why not?"
They were thirty minutes into cuddling when Stacy suddenly remembered that she had to be at work in twenty minutes. She brushed her hair quickly, without taking a shower. Pizza Steve offered to take her to work on his speedcycle. She took him up on his offer and they rushed out the door. Stacy worked until 4 pm that evening. Pizza Steve moped around all day waiting for Stacy; since he didn't feel like doing what he normally does without Stacy. At 4 pm, Pizza Steve went to pick up Stacy. Instead of going straight home, they decided to hang out at the arcade for a few hours. Then, stopped for ice cream on their way home.
When they got home, Pizza Steve and Stacy went to Stacy's room for alone time since they hadn't really gotten any in the last few days. "I never really got to ask; do you think you had a good birthday?" Pizza Steve asked. "It was perfect, couldn't have been better!" "That's good to hear." Later that evening, Uncle Grandpa interrupted their alone time to inform them that dinner was ready. They got up and went to the kitchen to eat. Pizza Steve and Stacy ate as quickly as possible so they could go back to their alone time. When it got late, Pizza Steve and Stacy fell asleep in each other's arms while they were watching TV.
Stacy had to wake up real early that rainy Tuesday morning. Pizza Steve woke up as Stacy finished getting dressed. Stacy kissed Pizza Steve, grabbed an umbrella, and went off to work. Not only was Pizza Steve bored because Stacy was gone, but because it was raining outside; which meant no riding his speedcycle outside. He couldn't pick Stacy up from work either. When it was finally time for Stacy to arrive home, she didn't show up. Pizza Steve knew what time she got off, and knew how long it takes for her to get home, but she was twenty minutes late. So, he called her. "Where are you?" "I'm picking up some clothes I ordered from Molly. I'll be home soon." "Why didn't you tell me?" "I did." "No you didn't!" "Yes, I did. It was when I was leaving for work. I told you right before I left." "Oh, I fell back asleep right before that." "Whatever. I'm on my way back now." "Ok, see you soon."
Stacy came home ten minutes later. Right in time for dinner. Her friends had just sat down to eat when she walked in. She joined them at the table and they all ate together. After dinner, Stacy went to her room for the night. As she was heading to her room she stopped by Pizza Steve, who was watching TV on the couch. "I'm going to bed, babe. I have to get up early again for work tomorrow." "Can't we sleep together tonight? Or at least cuddle for a little bit?" "No, I'm going to take a shower then go straight to bed. I'm not even going to watch TV for a bit." "Aw, ok." Stacy gave Pizza Steve a kiss then went off to her room.
Stacy took a quick shower then went to bed. She woke up around 5 am to get ready for work. Her and one of her co-workers were supposed to open the diner that morning. She left for work at about 6:45am and wasn't expected to be home until 5pm. Luckily, it wasn't raining like the day before so Pizza Steve was planning on picking up Stacy later that evening. It had been such a long time since Pizza Steve and Stacy had a romantic night together. So, Pizza Steve asked Uncle Grandpa go help him cook dinner for Stacy so they could have a cute little date night like they did on Valentine's Day.
When the time came to pick up Stacy, Pizza Steve had Uncle Grandpa set up their dinner in the ballroom. Pizza Steve took Stacy to the living room when they arrived home. "Since it's been, like, a thousand years since we had a nice date night; I set up a little something for us." "Oooh, really?" "Yep! Right this way..." Pizza Steve grabbed Stacy's hand and lead her to the ballroom. Pizza Steve had Stacy close her eyes until they got into the ballroom. "Ooh, is that spaghetti and meatballs I'm smelling?" "Maybe... Ok, open your eyes!" When Stacy opened her eyes, she saw a beautiful candle light dinner. "Oh, Pizza Steve! This is so sweet!" "Yeah, I know. Let's go eat before our dinner gets colder." They sat down and ate their spaghetti dinner. When they finished eating, Pizza Steve took their plates to the kitchen and came back with chocolate cake. "Woah, cake too?" "Of course! Only the best for my girl!"
Once they finished their cake, they got up to slow dance for a little bit. As they were dancing, Pizza Steve started to kiss Stacy. It started with little kisses on her face then Stacy kissed him back. They stopped dancing so they could make out. Since they had already cleaned up their mess in the ballroom, Pizza Steve blew out the candles quickly. Then they went back to kissing and left the ballroom to go to Stacy's room. Before leaving the ballroom, Pizza Steve looked out to the living room to see if anyone was there. Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa were on the couch. So Pizza Steve snatched Stacy's hand and they ran to Stacy's room.
Stacy locked the door and Pizza Steve went over to her bed. They did some intercourse then went to sleep. They were tuckered out from their romantic night. The next morning, Stacy had to rush out to work again. She got off early this time though, she was expected home at 1 pm. Uncle Grandpa, Mr. Gus, and GRFT went with Pizza Steve to pick her up. They had plans to go to the beach for a few hours. Pizza Steve brought Stacy's swim suit and hair brush for her since she wasn't stopping at home first. They walked to the diner, except Pizza Steve, he rode his speedcycle as Uncle Grandpa, Mr. Gus, and GRFT followed behind. When they picked her up, Stacy rode on Pizza Steve's speedcycle on their way to the beach.
They had a good day at the beach, and Stacy didn't break anything this time. They decided to go to Captain Blowhole's Seafood Restaurant for dinner. Everyone was so exhausted when they got home. They all walked in and went straight to bed. Stacy had to work again early the next morning. She took a quick shower and went off to work. Stacy got off work around 5 pm that evening, since dinner was going to be ready by then, she insisted Pizza Steve let her walk home. Everyone was at the table eating when she walked in, so she joined them. After dinner, Tiger invited Stacy to come hang out with her in her room. They did little pedicures while jaming out to some music. Stacy couldn't hang out for too long, once again she had to work early the next day. However, she promised Tiger that they could have a sleepover Saturday night, since Stacy didn't have to work on Sunday.
She got up and visited Pizza Steve in his room before she left. Pizza Steve told Stacy he wasn't going to pick her up, because she once again insisted not to, but Pizza Steve wanted to surprise her. Around 6 pm. Pizza Steve showed up at the diner to pick up Stacy. She saw him when she walked out of the diner. "What are you doing? I said you didn't have to come." "I know, but I wanted to surprise you." "Aww." Stacy kissed Pizza Steve's cheek as she hopped onto the speedcycle. "Also, I got you a gift." Pizza Steve handed her a candle. "No way! That's so sweet of you! But, don't I have to earn my candles?" She joked. "Nope, not this time... Unless you want to do a little somethin' somethin' when we get home..." "Yes, I definitely need that after the rough day I just had." They raced home and went off to Stacy's bedroom without stopping to eat dinner.
After a couple hours, Pizza Steve and Stacy got hungry. They went to the kitchen to look for some snacks. Uncle Grandpa and Mr. Gus were on the couch watching TV when they walked by. "Watcha' guys looking for?" Uncle Grandpa asked. "Some snacks." Stacy replied as she was climbing up onto the counter. "We just made dinner not too long ago, and it was still out when you two got home. Why didn't you eat then?" Mr. Gus said. Pizza Steve replied as he helped Stacy get into the cabinets "We weren't hungry then."
Pizza Steve and Stacy went back to Stacy's room and ate their snacks. Not too long after, Stacy went to Tiger's room for their sleepover. While Stacy was with Tiger, Pizza Steve decided to hang out with Uncle G for the rest of the night. Stacy and Tiger did some pedicures along with little makeovers, nothing too over the top. They mainly just talked while listening to music and eating snacks. When they started to get bored and tired, Stacy started a pillow fight. Their pillow fight wore them out and they ended up falling asleep on a pile of pillows. The girls slept in the next morning but Stacy was woken up by texts. Pizza Steve couldn't go into Tiger's room to wake up Stacy so he texted her until she woke up.
Stacy texted him back telling him that she was tired and didn't want to get up. The texts stopped for a couple minutes but started back up as soon as Stacy was about to fall back asleep. She got up, brushed her hair and jsut started her day. When she walked out into the living room, Pizza Steve was sitting on the couch and doing stuff on his phone. He didn't look up when Stacy walked in. She went up to him and stood there for a minute to see if he would notice. "Hello!?" She shouted, startling Pizza Steve. "Oh, hey. You're awake!" "Yep!" Stacy replied, very bitterly. "You don't sound happy..." "Hmmm... wonder why?" "Yeah, did you get up on the wrong side of the bed?" "I got out bed, that's the problem." They were quiet for a few minutes and Stacy hopped up onto the couch to sit next to Pizza Steve. "Pizza Steve, why did you keep texting me to get out of bed? You know I get up early everyday for work. On weeks where I work everyday the only day I get to sleep in is Sunday." "I was bored." "And I was tired. You didn't even notice me when I first walked in so you couldn't have been that bored. I work early again tomorrow morning. Luckily this week I work every other day so I only work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday."
After a few minutes, Tiger woke up and came out into the living room. "Hey girl! Did you sleep well? I know sleeping on that pile of pillows wasn't the best place to sleep, but at least it wasn't the floor." Stacy giggled. "*ROAR*" "Yeah, my back hurts a little too." Tiger went off to the kitchen to grab some breakfast. "What were you talking about? What did you mean by pile of pillows?" "It's nothing, don't worry about it." Pizza Steve went back to looking at his phone as Stacy hopped off the couch to go get some breakfast with Tiger. "Ugh, I wish Uncle G would've made breakfast. There's nothing to just grab and eat, and I don't feel like cooking." Stacy groaned. "Ha! Let's hope you don't cook, I don't want burnt pancakes for breakfast today!" Pizza Steve shouted. Stacy blushed as she was looking through the cabinets. "How about we go to that local donut shop?" She suggested. "That's a good idea but, we have to wait for Uncle G to wake up." "He is awake. He got up early to go help kids." "Oh, then I guess it should be fine." "Want to tag along, Tiger?" "*ROAR!*"
Pizza Steve and Stacy jumped onto Tiger's back and they made their way to the donut shop. They bought their donuts and went back to the RV to eat them. Once they finished their breakfast, Pizza Steve and Stacy went outside to ride Pizza Steve's speedcycle for a little bit. As they were outside, Uncle Grandpa came home. They went inside with Uncle Grandpa for some lunch, and after lunch they went swimming. Later that night, Stacy took a long, warm bubble bath. She relaxed in the tub while listening to some music and enjoying some chocolate. As she was taking a bath, her mom called. "Hi honey! I just wanted to call and tell you that we've got Grandma's house all clean and ready to sell. I know this house means a lot to you so I wanted you to come take one last look at it." "Sure, I'll even bring Cali so she can say goodbye too." "Alright!" They were both quiet for a minute. "Sooo um, what are you up to?" "Oh... Nothing I'm just taking a bath and eating some chocolate." Stacy replied, glumly. "...How was your week at work?" "Miserable, like usual." "Aw, couldn't have been that bad." "I'm just tired from it all, but I work every other day this coming week." "Well at least it's not everyday. You get a couple days off." "Mom, is it worth working if I don't really have any expenses? Uncle Grandpa doesn't charge me to stay at the RV because I'm their friend so I don't have any bills." "Sure it's worth it! You love shopping, if you didn't work you wouldn't be able to buy nice things!" "That's true..." "Plus, what about having children one day?" "I wouldn't worry about that right now." "I'm just saying." Just then, Pizza Steve came into Stacy's bathroom. "Hey babe, who are you talking to?" "My mom, want to say hi?" "Sure." "Mom, Pizza Steve wants to say hi." She handed the phone to Pizza Steve. "Hey, Mrs. Amato." "Hello Steven! How are you doing?" "I'm doing fine." "Good to hear! Hope you're keeping my daughter happy!" She laughed. "I sure am!" Pizza Steve looked over at Stacy and winked. Stacy blushed as she grabbed her phone. "Alright, mom, I think we're going to call it a night." "Ok darling. Love you!" "Love you too, bye!"
Stacy and Pizza Steve slept in their own beds that night, and Stacy got up early for work once again. She didn't get off until real late. Since she wasn't scheduled everyday, she worked really late instead. When Stacy got home she went into her bedroom and found Pizza Steve sleeping in her bed. She put on some cozy pajamas and got in bed next to him. It was Tuesday morning, and Stacy didn't have to work. She made plans to hang out at the park with Pizza Steve. They slept in late and as they were in bed Uncle Grandpa packed some lunch for them. The two little slices woke up around 10 am, they ate some breakfast then made their way to the park on Pizza Steve's speedcycle.
They sat on a bench for a little while since 10 am was kinda early for them. Pizza Steve brought one of his cool guy weekly magazines to show Stacy. "I brought this week's cool guy magazine, wanna look at it." "Oh, sure." As they were looking through it, Pizza Steve noticed that Stacy was having a hard time trying to read it. "Are you alright?" "What do you mean?" "You're having trouble reading it." "Nah, it's just the sun... it's really bright..." "Oh, we'll have to remember your sunglasses next time." "Huh, yeah..." The problem actually was that Stacy can't really read without glasses but she didn't want to tell Pizza Steve that. She despises her glasses.
A couple hours later, the two of them got up to go on the swings for a bit. It didn't take long for Stacy to notice that was more birds than usual around. She got off the swings to move away from them but as she was walking, a bird attacked her. Pizza Steve ran over and threw his sunglasses at it, making the bird fly away. "Oh my gosh, you saved my life!" Stacy exclaimed, as she hugged Pizza Steve. "I was nothing, I save people like all the time." Stacy blushed and kissed his cheek. They went over to bench to eat their lunch. Once they finished eating, they were going to hop off the bench, but Stacy stopped Pizza Steve. "You can't jump off, you'll hurt yourself! I'll bring your speedcycle closer so you can step down on it." Stacy went to get his speedcycle. Pizza Steve stood there very confused. "Here, step down carefully." "What are you doing? I'm able to get off the bench without hurting myself." "You saved my life, now it's my job to make sure you don't get hurt." "I wouldn't worry about me."
They decided to go down the slide a couple times, and Stacy insisted she stand at the bottom and catch Pizza Steve. When she caught him, she lost her balance and they fell over. They laughed as they stood up. "Are you alright?" Stacy asked, as she was still laughing. "Yes, I'm fine. Stop worrying about me. You don't have to protect me, even if I did save your life or whatever." They decided to just go home for the day. When they got home, Stacy went to her room and Pizza Steve went to talk to Uncle Grandpa. "Yo, Uncle G, can I talk to you for a minute?" "Of course, Pizza Steve." "While Stacy and I were at the park she got attacked by an bird, but I saved her by throwing my sunglasses at it." "You're so brave, Pizza Steve." Uncle Grandpa interrupted. "I know, but anyway. She thinks she has to return the favor and is being overprotective. Can you talk to her?" "Sure!" Uncle Grandpa went to Stacy's room and Pizza Steve followed. He knocked on the door and when he heard Stacy say come in, he went in. "Hey so, I heard about your little incident at the park. I also heard that you think you have to protect Pizza Steve now because of it." "If it wasn't for him, that bird probably would've ate me! I owe it to him." "Look, I know you have a huge fear of birds. But it happened this one time. Any of us would've helped you." "This isn't the first time it's happened... I fear birds because this did happen before, when I was younger." "It's hard being a walking piece of food, but not all birds are like that. Plus you smell more of like, shampoo than you do pepperoni. Not all birds are going to attack you, not with all that hair" Stacy smiled at Uncle Grandpa, and he smiled back at her. "Thanks Uncle G." "No problem." They hugged then Uncle Grandpa left her room. As soon as he did, Pizza Steve walked in. "Sorry about annoying you back at the park, Peezy." "I kinda went crazy because the bird really scared me." "It's alright."
That night, Stacy went to bed early because she had to work. When she got up the next morning, she showered and got ready, then walked to work. Pizza Steve was really missing Stacy when he woke up. He would have loved to be cuddling with her right about that time. He texted her telling her that he loved her and couldn't wait until she got home. Stacy quickly went into the bathroom to text him back. It had been a really hard day but when Stacy got home late that night, she was happy to find Pizza Steve fast asleep in her bed. She got in bed next to him, and cuddled up close to him. She repeatly kissed his face, causing him to wake up. "Oh, sorry to wake you. I just really wanted to kiss your adorable face." "It's fine. Totally understandable." Stacy blushed as Pizza Steve pulled her closer. They started to kiss, which lead to a late night making out session.
After all that kissing, they were even more tuckered out. They fell asleep in each other's arms, and when they woke up the next morning, they were still in their cuddling position. They also smelled some french toast Uncle Grandpa was making. Stacy took a shower and brushed her hair then they went out to the kitchen to eat. After breakfast, Pizza Steve and Stacy went outside to go swimming. They had a nice summer day. The swam, ate ice cream, and had a water fight. At the end of the day they gazed up at the stars as they laid in the grass. When the sun finally set, they went inside to go to bed. Pizza Steve took a quick shower in Stacy's bathroom before Stacy took a warm bubble bath.
They got into bed and cuddled close together, as they usually do. Stacy had to work early the next morning. And for the last few days of the month, the gang did their normal summer activities. Stacy worked that Monday and Tuesday. It had been a exhausting but fun month.
