-Chapter Thirteen-
It was mid-afternoon on December 30th, Emma and Christie were discussing plans for New Years Eve.
"Well," said Emma," Sean and Craig can come here, we can rent some movies or something and watch the ball drop."
"That sounds like.." Before Christie could finish, the phone rang and she picked it up.
"Hello, Nelson-Simpson residents, Christie speaking."
"Sounds like you need a -How May I Help You- after that Cris."
The voice on the other end sounded familiar, but Christie couldn't quite place it, until.
"Jimmy! How are you? I haven't seen you all break."
"I'm doing good," he said," it's too bad we haven't got to hang out much. I've talked to Craig tho, seems like things are going well?"
"Yeah, they're going really well, we're so happy."
"Good. Well I was just calling to offer you an opportunity to hang out with me."
Christie laughed," Oh yeah? What's that?"
"I'm having a party on New Years Eve, and I want you to come. Emma too."
Christie covered up the receiver and squealed. "What?" said Emma.
"Jimmy's having a party on New Years Eve, and he wants us to come!"
"Well tell him yes!!"
"Jimmy?"
"Yeah?"
"Emma and I would love to come," replied Christie.
"Great. I already called Craig and Sean, they're coming too. It's nothing fancy, so wear casual and comfy clothes and I'll see you ladies on New Years Eve!"
Christie hung up the phone and told Emma everything Jimmy had said. The two girls were so excited they just had to pick out their outfits. Emma came up with a pair of pink velour pants, a navy blue and pink striped baby t- shirt, and a pair of white tennis shoes. For Christie they chose a pair of cotton, light blue, capri pants, and a little white t-shirt with a pair of white tennis shoes that had light blue stripes on them.
The girls went downstairs to tell Spike their plans, and she was excited for them.
"Aww, my little girls and their first New Years Eve party," she looked as if she might cry.
"Hold it together Spike," said Christie," we didn't leave yet!"
It was finally New Years Eve, Craig had called Christie and told her that Sean was driving to his house and they were going to leave from there to pick up the girls.
"We'll be there around seven, okay?"
"Sure thing, sweetheart."
Christie hung up the phone, and she and Emma went to get ready. Christie added a light blue fishermen's cap to her outfit and both girls grabbed their purses and cell phones. They headed downstairs to say goodbye to Spike and Snake who were on their way to their own party.
"Oh you guys look so cute!" exclaimed Christie fixing Snakes tie.
"I could just cry," said Emma fighting back fake tears.
Spike laughed," You girls have fun now, but not too much fun okay? Sean and Craig are welcome to stay the night here if they are too tired to drive home."
The couple waved and were out the front door. About five minutes later, the doorbell rang. Christie opened the door to find Sean and Craig. Sean, wearing his same old jean jacket and white shirt, paired with jeans and tennis shoes. Craig however, was sporting the black and white Sex Pistols shirt Christie had gotten him, and a pair of jeans. He also had on a cute black hat, Christie thought it was called a fedora, and it looked great on Craig. The girls walked out the door closing it behind them and went to their separate cars, calling out that they would see each other at the party.
When Christie got in the car she gave Craig a quick kiss and grabbed the hat on his head. "This is a fedora right? Big in the eighties?"
"Yep," said Craig," it's Joey's. I wore it as part of my Sid Vicious costume to that dance."
Christie smiled," You look hot in it. You should wear it often."
When they arrived at the party it seemed to be in full swing, there were lots of people. However it didn't take long for Jimmy to come over and say hi.
"Craig man, Sean, you made it," he said shaking the hands of both guys. "And the girlfriends," he smiled," I'm glad you came Christie, Emma." He hugged both girls and they smiled.
"This looks great Jimmy," said Christie," I'm sure it will be fun!"
There was lots of food and dancing. TVs were on too, and some people were chilling on couches. The four had made their rounds and said hi to everyone, so they sat down. After a little while Craig said he was going to the bathroom and he'd be back ASAP.
"Are you guys having fun," Christie asked," it's already eleven-thirty."
"Wow," said Sean smiling," time flies when you're having fun."
Just then Spinner approached them. "Hey guys," he said," mind if I borrow Christie for a minute?"
"Sure," Emma said," we'll tell Craig where you are when he gets back."
Christie got up and followed Spinner into the empty kitchen.
"Okay Spin, what's up?"
Spinner grabbed Christie and backed her up against a row of cabinets. "Uh Spinner, what are you doing? I thought you needed to talk to me about something?"
Spinner smiled, but it wasn't a friendly smile, it scared Christie and she knew that something was terribly wrong. Meanwhile..
Craig had come back from the bathroom. "Where's Cris guys?"
Emma looked up," Oh she's in the kitchen, Spinner said that he needed to talk to her."
Craig smiled," That's my girl, always helping. I'm gonna go find her, I'll be back."
Back in the kitchen..
"Spinner, stop it you're scaring me."
"I never said anything about talking Christie.." Spinner lunged forward crushing his lips on hers, and it was at that moment, that Craig walked in. Horrified, he stared straight ahead at a scene that would haunt him forever.
Christie pushed Spinner away in time to see Craig in the doorway. No she thought, no not Craig, no.
"Craig!" She yelled. He wasn't listening he had already turned around and ran out the door.
In the other room Emma and Sean saw him coming back. "Where's Christie," Emma asked. Craig didn't answer, he just kept walking until he got to the door, and then he was gone.
"I wonder what was wrong with Craig," Emma said.
"Beats me," answered Sean. Just then Christie came running out of the kitchen she looked like a deer caught in headlights.
"Christie what is it?" Emma asked, she was beginning to get worried.
"We have to go, we have to go now. I have to get to Craig I HAVE to." Christie started for the door. Emma and Sean gathered all the things they had brought and followed her. Just before they reached the door, Jimmy stopped them.
"Where are you guys going, it's almost midnight."
Sean looked confused," We think something happened with Craig and Christie, something bad. We don't know what tho, they both left and we've got to go find them."
Jimmy looked stunned," Wow, okay, give me a call later and let me know everything's okay."
"We will Jimmy," Emma called as she and Sean sprinted down the long hallway.
A/N: A little far fetched from Spinner's real character, I know. I needed someone for that part tho, and he struck me as the best one to use.hope you enjoyed it!
