What Now? Chapter 19
Tiger and Stacy slept in on the first day of December. Once they got out of bed, the two of them grabbed some food from the kitchen then went on with their day. Since it was Saturday, Stacy didn't have to work. She spent the whole day relaxing and resting. The next morning, Stacy had a hair appoinment. As much as Pizza Steve didn't want to, he had to take Stacy to her appointment and stay with her because she needed to go order some winter clothes from her friend. The hair appointment took forever; at least, according to Pizza Steve it did. The hair appoint was only an hour long then they went to order Stacy's clothes. That took two hours. By the time they were leaving, Pizza Steve was annoyed that everything took so long and just wanted to go home. As soon as they got home, Stacy and Pizza Steve practiced some karate.
On Monday afternoon, Stacy had class from 2pm to 3:50pm. That morning, she got out all her Christmas soaps and candles. After class, she had to get ready for work. Stacy was scheduled to work from 5pm to 8pm. She was exhausted when she got home. The gang had already made dinner while she was gone but when she arrived, Uncle Grandpa warmed up some of the food for her. Stacy and Pizza Steve hung out in Stacy's bed until they went to sleep. Tuesday was going to be a long day. Stacy had to do homework. She slept in then ate some breakfast before starting her homework at 12pm. Her homework finally got done at 11pm. When it was done, she closed her laptap, pushed it to the end of her bed, then fell asleep immediately.
Class was from 8am to 9am on Wednesday. Once class was over, Stacy had to quickly get ready for work and had to be there at 10am. Her shift ended at 3pm. She showered and ate when she got home then practiced some guitar at 5pm with Pizza Steve. On Thursday afternoon, Stacy baked 6 dozen Christmas cookies with Mr. Gus. They finished baking at 3pm and had 72 cookies. Stacy hung out with the gang in the living room for an hour before she had to get into class. Class ended at 5:50pm, then Stacy took a bath with some Christmas soap. After her bath, she got into some cozy pajamas, lit a Christmas candle, then cuddled in bed with Pizza Steve.
Not too much happened on Friday, Stacy had to work from 8am to 9pm. She got into bed as soon as she got home. Saturday was a laid back day. Uncle Grandpa made some santa pancakes for breakfast. After breakfast, Tiger and Stacy went out shopping for Christmas decorations. They had lunch when they got home then Pizza Steve helped Stacy decorate her room for Christmas. They got done decorating at 5pm and it only took five hours to decorate.
On Sunday morning, the gang woke up to the pleasent surprise of snow fall. Blankets of snow covered the ground by 10am. So, Pizza Steve and Stacy bundled up then went out to build some snowmen. They played in the snow the whole day. That afternoon, they took a minute to get Stacy's winter clothes that she ordered then went back home to continue playing in the snow. After being out in all the cold, the two of them took a warm shower. That night, they cuddled in their warm blankets and fell asleep in each other's arms. Stacy woke up the next morning to hang out with her mom at 8am. Pizza Steve was sound asleep next to her when she woke up, it was so hard to leave him because he looked so cuddly. She forced herself out of bed and got ready to go with her mom. Stacy was out until 1pm because she had a class a 2pm and needed to be home in time. Once she got out of class, Stacy went out in the snow with Pizza Steve to play for a bit. They were so cold when they got inside, so they took a warm bath.
Stacy had to work from 6am to 9pm on Tuesday. unfortunately, Tuesday was homework day. So, Stacy had to do her homework at 10pm and didn't get it done until 12am. Class was from 8am to 9am on Wednesday. Stacy just had to get through that hour then her day wouldn't be so bad. At 10am she helped the gang decorate the Christmas tree. Then for the rest of the day, Stacy relaxed, did whatever, and practiced karate with Pizza Steve.
Stacy went out with her mom from 2pm to 3pm on Thursday. She had to rush home after for class at 4pm. When class ended at 5:50pm, Stacy chilled in her bed until Pizza Steve came in about an hour later wanting to practice guitar. Stacy had to force herself out of bed at 5:30am the next day to be at work at 6am. She arrived home around 2pm, then wrapped gifts from 3pm to 4pm.
Saturday was date night with Pizza Steve. For their date, the two of them went ice skating. Pizza Steve and Stacy went out at 6pm and finally got home at 9pm. Even though they had went home, date night still wasn't over. When they arrived home, they went straight to Stacy's room for the night. On Sunday, the gang made gingerbread houses. They started at 12pm and it lasted a couple hours. Later that night, the gang made some hot chocolate and watched Christmas movies.
Stacy had a great weekend but on Monday it was back to work and school. Luckily, her work didn't start until 2pm. So from 10am to 1pm, Stacy and Pizza Steve went sledding. After class at 3:50pm, Stacy had to work at 5pm. She wouldn't get home that night until 9pm. Tuesday of course was homework day. Stacy started at 1pm and did homework for eight hours. That night, Pizza Steve and Stacy watched Christmas movies together in Stacy's bed while drinking hot chocolate.
Stacy did her usual 8am-9am class on Wednesday. Then she had to work at 10am. When her shift ended at 3pm, Stacy rushed home to shower before going out with her mom at four. The two of them went to the spa for a couple hours, then Stacy made it back to the RV just in time for dinner. After they all ate dinner, Tiger wanted Stacy to hang with her in her room for the rest of the night. Thursday was jam packed. Work was from 6am to 1pm, after class Stacy did karate with Peezy from 2pm-3pm, then class was 4pm-5:50pm. Finally at the end of the night, the gang watched Christmas movies while drinking hot chocolate again.
Stacy worked all day on Friday; 7am to 10pm. On Saturday, the gang did their secret santa. Uncle Grandpa got Belly Bag. Pizza Steve got Uncle Grandpa. Mr. Gus got Pizza Steve. Tiger got Stacy. Belly Bag got Tiger. Lastly, Stacy got Mr. Gus. After they pulled their cards, the gang went to the mall to shop. They were out for a couple hours before heading back to the RV for the night. Later that night, Pizza Steve and Stacy laid in bed together watching movies and drinking hot chocolate before bed.
Stacy woke up earlier than she would have for a Sunday morning the next day. She had plans to hang out with her mom for a few hours. Their new thing to do together was to go to the spa. They both really enjoyed it. Stacy met up with her mom at the spa at 9am. They stayed at the spa until 1pm, then Stacy went back to the RV. She walked home, enjoying how peaceful the snowy day was. When she got to the RV, the gang was outside playing in the snow. She joined them, and they played for a few hours before going out to help kids. Stacy was freezing when she got home. She hadn't been inside since 1pm, so she had been out in the cold for seven hours that day. Stacy went to her bathroom to take a hot bubble bath. She laid in the tub and munched on a candycane as she watched her candycane scented bath bomb dissolve. As Stacy was still in her bath, Pizza Steve came in to hang out. Pizza Steve was feeling kinda cold so he got into the bath with her. When it was time for bed, Pizza Steve and Stacy cuddled until they fell asleep in each other's arms. On Christmas Eve, Stacy had a college class at 2pm. Before her class, she finished wrapping Christmas gifts. As soon as her class was over, she went out with the gang to help kids. Before she knew it, the day was coming to an end. That night the gang watched Christmas movies and drank hot chocolate before bed.
Pizza Steve and Stacy woke up to the smell of waffles on Christmas morning. When they went into the living room, the tree was surrounded by gifts. They decided to eat breakfast before ripping into their gifts. The gang opened all their gifts, and once they were finished, there was trash everywhere. "We still have one more gift..." Uncle Grandpa said, as everyone had just finished opening presents. "Stacy. Close your eyes and keep them closed until I say." Uncle G added before rushing out of the room. He was gone for a second then quietly came back into the living room. It was dead silent until Uncle Grandpa said "Ok, you can open your eyes now!" Stacy opened, and in front of her face was Uncle G holding up a adorable little, gray kitten. She had a brown spot on her that was very unique, and a red bow around her neck. "No way! Are you serious?!" Stacy started to cry happily. "I told you if you did well babysitting a couple months ago, I'd think about it. You did really well and I know you've been begging me for one." "I can't believe this is actually happening! What is her name?" "Whatever you want it to be. You get to name her!" "Thank you, Uncle G! This is the best gift EVER!" She jumped up and hugged Uncle Grandpa tightly. Stacy introduced herself to her new kitten and welcomed her to her new home. Once Stacy got acquainted with her new friend, Uncle Grandpa showed Stacy all the stuff he bought that she'd need for her kitten. Such as a litter box, food bowls, and toys. Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa made Christmas dinner. It had been such an amazing day for everyone. That night, Stacy's kitten slept in Stacy's bed, and so did Pizza Steve. "Hopefully this one doesn't hiss at me." He said, climbing into bed. To their surprise, the kitten walked up to Pizza Steve then purred and meowed as she rubbed up against him. "Seems you two will get along just fine!" Stacy effused. They fell asleep that night with the kitten at the end of Stacy's bed. The two of them woke up the next morning and found the kitten cuddled up next to Cali in Cali's bed. "Oooh! They're sooooo cute! I love my little babies!" Stacy hopped out of bed to feed her pets. Wednesday was a chill day. Stacy didn't have work or college. Her and Pizza Steve practiced some karate and guitar that day. Then, at the end of their day, the gang watched movies and drank hot chocolate once again. Stacy held her kitten in her lap the entire time. Pizza Steve and Stacy cuddled in bed until they fell asleep. The kitten decided to sleep with Cali instead of in Stacy's bed.
Stacy had plans to hang with her mom again the next day. Her mom didn't see the kitten because she visited real quick Christmas morning before Stacy was given her new pet. Stacy showed her mom, and Diane was very excited. She was nervous about leaving her kitten, but Stacy had to work that evening so she had to leave that day no matter what. Stacy was gone from 10am to 3pm, and Peezy watched the kitten while she was away. He did a good job too. Stacy had to get ready for work when she got home and had to be there at 4pm. Since she wouldn't be home until 11pm, Pizza Steve continued to watch the kitten. Stacy found Pizza Steve asleep in her bed when she arrived home. He was proped up against a pillow, with the kitten asleep in his lap. Stacy woke up early for work on Friday. She left at 6:30am and wasn't expected home until 1pm. Pizza Steve was in Stacy's room when she got home. She walked in and laid on her bed. "What are we going to name your kitten?" Pizza Steve asked. "No clue." They were quiet for a few minutes so Stacy could rest for a little bit. "So, princess; how about we go practice some karate since you don't have anyth-" "WAIT. That's IT!" "What?" "Princess! I'll name her Princess! Since she's my little princess!" "Cool." They then went on to practice some karate.
on Saturday, Pizza Steve and Stacy practiced guitar most of the day. That night, Stacy and Tiger had a girls night in Tiger's room. Pizza Steve watched Princess and ended up falling asleep in Stacy's bed. The girls stayed up real late then slept in the next day. Stacy went out with her mom from 1pm to 3pm. That night was date night. Stacy and Pizza Steve left the RV to go on their date at 6pm. They went to a light show, did some ice skating, had dinner, and at the end of the night they found a soft lit field near the city and played around in the snow just enjoying quality time together. "This is our last date for 2018." Stacy said as they were sitting on a bench and holding hands. "Yeah, I guess it is." "I'll admit, this year didn't start off too great with my grandma passing away... But you've cheered me up and made me happier than I could imagine!" Pizza Steve didn't respond, he pulled her close and started to kiss her. They got back to the RV around 10pm and went straight to bed.
That Monday was the last day of the year. Stacy had a college had at 2pm and didn't get out of it until 3:50pm. Once she did, she went out to the living room to help the gang set up for New Years. They were having a party with their closest friends. When the party started, they were all having a good time. Everyone gathered around the TV to watch the ball drop and when it did, Pizza Steve pulled Stacy close and kissed her. The night ended, and everyone went home. Stacy and Pizza Steve were exhausted so they headed off to bed and fell asleep in each other's arms; like usual.
