A/N: Wow, that's easier to write than StephanieFan. Well, worked hard on this. Still trying to finish before Christmas is over.
Waiting Ever So Patiently
Danny Tanner had his head in his arms which were on the table.
"Girls, we're not leaving until you stop fighting." he said wearily.
DJ and Michelle has again started another fight. This time, over who is more selfish. God only knows why.
"DJ thinks only about herself and doesn't even care about Christmas!" screamed Michelle.
DJ defended herself with her own words "I'm selfish? Speak for yourself! You don't wouldn't even let Stephanie use your lamp."
"I was only four years old!"
"Whatever!"
"Hey, hey, hey!" shushed Jesse "Come on, you're dad's tired enough and you're really adding too much pressure on the poor guy."
"Sorry," muttered DJ.
"My apologies!" Michelle chriped. Then turned to DJ and added "Oh, and I accept!"
DJ shot her sister a glare "What did I offer you to accept?"
"I accept your apology." she explained calmly.
"I don't remember anything about an apology."
The little blonde stood up to put her hands on her hips.
"Isn't it obvious? It's your fault afterall. So it's only fitting that you apologized to me."
DJ shook her head slowly "No, no, no. You decided to bring this subject from out of the blue and started saying your lame speech about Christmas."
"That just proves you're too proud of yourself to admit you've been selfish."
"Can you two please stop fighting? You're an adult and you're a pre-teen." started Danny.
Start acting that age." finished Jesse.
The girls gave a confused look.
"You want me to act like I'm twelve?" asked DJ in shock.
"And you want me to act like an adult?" whined Michelle.
Jesse slapped a hand to his forehead.
"The other way around."
"Oh!" they said in unison.
Becky clapped "Alright then, now that we all got over this here's crisis, let's head home!"
Danny helped his eldest daughter carry the many bags she had. Joey helped too. Of course, Jesse was helpful to Becky up until he pretty much ripped a bag by lifting too fast.
"Don't worry, honey, We'll just get another one." she assured her husband.
Jesse sighed "I must be getting old."
Michelle hugged Jesse around the waist.
"Come on uncle Jesse! You're not that old!"
Jesse smiled "If I'm not that old then exactly how old am I?"
Michelle thought about it then was about to answer but Jesse beat her to it.
"You're not gonna say 'ninety two' like what you said to your dad are you?"
His niece shrugged "To be honest I was gonna say 'no' but since you just love that answer, I'll just say yea." Michelle gave a smile and walked with her shopping bag to follow her dad.
Tanner Home
"Hey, Steph! We're home!" announced Danny.
"Nichole! Alexandra! Mom and daddy's home!" Becky said with an equally loud voice.
Moments after, the twins came walking quietly down the stairs.
Looking grave.
Becky put an arm around each of their shoulders.
"Sweethearts, what's wrong?"
"Stephy looked cold and now she's not waking up." stated Nichole innocently.
Alexandra started crying.
Jesse took Alexandra in a hug and asked "Why didn't you call us and tell us?"
"Because Stephy doesn't want you to worry." Nichole replied.
"Where is she right now?" asked a frantic Danny Tanner.
Nichole pointed up.
Danny jogged up the stairs to Stephanie's room. DJ embraced the twins after not seeing them for a while and followed her father.
Michelle, of course, will always be close behind.
When they got there, they saw their dad stroking their sister's head softly.
"Are you alright, Steph?" asked DJ with concern in her voice.
When Stephanie gave no response, they knew something was wrong.
"She might be getting a fever." said Danny sadly.
Michelle crossed her and whispered "This is the worst Christmas. A selfish DJ and a sick Stephanie."
Danny hugged his youngest child (Yes, there's a lot of love in that house, eh?).
"I promise you, Michelle, I'll make Christmas happen no matter what."
DJ leaned against the door frame.
"Me thinking about myself won't be a problem anymore." she pushed herself off, strolling over to Stephanie and putting a hand on her forehead.
"Right now, we need to make sure Stephanie is gonna be alright." Danny said quietly as to not disturb his middle child.
"Oh my gosh!" exclaimed DJ.
Danny's head shot up to look at her "What is it?"
"Stephanie's really burning up."
"We better check her temperature." Danny let go of Michelle and went for a thermometer.
DJ turned her attention on Michelle.
"Speaking of temperatures, have you noticed how cold it is in this house?"
She shrugged.
"I'm still warm from eating that cinnabon!"
DJ turned to leave "Well, when that pastry's heat wears off, find a jacket."
Sigh Sisterly love...if only my sister and I don't fight all the time. Happy Holidays!
