"Pride Michael- and Zandra Rose knock it off," May yelled.

"One of you is going to fall and die and I ain't cleaning it up!" Lex's voice chimed in, "He's as meddle some as his barbiedoll father"

"Yea well yours is a chip off the old block too," May snapped.

"Guys- let's not go there all right. Besides, you need to say isn't- ain't is not a word," Salene told him from the café area.

"Bite me"

"Charming," May said dryly setting a bowl of food in front of him, "Enjoy lord and master".

She then sat down next to him with her own plate.

Lex just rolled his eyes as he started stuffing his face.

"God does he ever eat like anything less than animal?" Amber demanded walking in past Lex giving May a nod and heading towards Salene and the stove.

"No, where's Bray?"

"He and Jay went to the hotel to meet with the tribal leaders- this first snow in years bit is making everyone nervous," Amber responded.

"I bet it is," May said dryly.

"Where's Trudy and the kids? They haven't come down for breakfast yet…" Salene noted.

"Here we are," a tried voice exclaimed crying a baby in with Brady, Bray jr., and another little boy in tow.

"Oh my god- let me help you- Bray come here," Amber cried fast as Salene raced over to grab one of the kids.

"Did you get dumped on or something?" May asked amused.

"Unofficially- Ellie and Jack are on their honeymoon, remember? Alice is still sleeping so I figured I'd help her- and Bray here just decided he needed to stalk Chrissy".

"At least they're the only one's left- if Ebony's was running here- that would be trouble," Amber noted- fixing Bray a bowl of cereal trying ignoring Lex's loud munching noises.

"No kidding- anyway whose up for a game cards?" Trudy asked.

"I AM"

"Ram, you aren't afraid of fire are you?" Lottie asked him finally.

"What do you mean?" Ram asked defensively.

"Well are you- you seemed scared of when Darryl accidentally burned the popcorn…"

"I wasn't afraid. In fact, hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity," Ram said after a minute.

Lottie looked at him skeptically, "Yea huh- RUBY- RAM'S AFRAID OF FIRE"

"AM NOT"

"RAM STOP ARUGING WITH A 10 YEAR OLD"

"Yea yea…"

However, as Ram was about to go back to eat suddenly heard a loud amount of footsteps coming crashing down the stairs and two very loud voices accompanied it.

"I HATE YOU- I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU OR THAT THING AGAIN," Ebony hissed as she reached the bottom of the stairs shooting death glares at Slade.

"That thing? That thing? That's all you have to say, that thing? I'll tell you something Ebony- you might as well leave now then," he said back angry enough that his nostrils were flaring up- and his eyes were narrowed.

"You better get lost monkey," Ram said Lottie.

"But…"

"Go now" he warned.

Lottie then got up and darted from the side room over to the kitchen passing Ruby who was coming out.

Ruby then saw the looks on Ebony and Slade's face and tapped Ram on the shoulder, "We should get out of here"

"Right with ya"

"WELLL THEN FINE I'LL GO- WE'RE THROUGH SLADE" she then turned and stormed off with Slade just silently looking at her before he turned over to the slamming kitchen door knowing they had guests before then turning and walking back upstairs to the screaming child.

(The Hotel)

"Okay so then we're agreement?" Mega demanded with Java's hands laced in his.

"We are- for once," Jay replied.

"Good then we'll handle it tomorrow- you should go back," Java cut in.

"We really should- it is late," Bray pointed out.

"Fine we finish this tomorrow," Jay said standing up looking at Mega sharply before turning and following Bray out.

"So… you and Trudy going to have your make up night?" Bray asked once they entered outside deciding it was best to change the subject.

"Yea, and I've got already planned out- great idea by the way"

"Anytime"

(The night)

Once Jay got in, he briefly greeted his wife, Brady, and the children he had with Salene and then made his excuses.

Upon arrival, he took down the lamp and replaced it with candles. Grabbed out some rose peddles that Salene kept for him from last year and placed them on bed- thankfully they hadn't browned just yet thanks to her greenhouse.

He then went downstairs, "Trudy can I have a minute?"

Trudy then looked up- her purple hair a wreck, her clothes covered in food, and the kids screaming, "Can this wait Jay?"

"Not really- can someone else take over for you?"

"Sure, I can- go," May cut in.

"May…"

"I'm fine really- go," she replied shooing Trudy off who then went with Jay as he pulled her upstairs towards their room.

As they hit the outside, Jay stopped Trudy outside the door, "Wait now before we walk in- there's something you need to know…"

"And that is…."

"That I love you- and I'm sorry that recently has been a mess- and I promise that we'll be okay soon," he said looking at her grabbing her hand.

"Jay…"

"You can go in now"

Trudy without another word headed in trying to keep the mystified look off her face- as she headed in she stopped when she saw the room covered in curtains around the bed- pink rose peddles were on the bed itself, and the room was lit with candles- with dinner on the side.

"Oh Jay…"

"Wait, there's one more thing…"

"What's that?"

Jay took a deep breath before getting down on one knee, "Trudy will marry me- again?"

"Jay!" she cried with shock as she saw the ring he pulled out- and it was a real one too- not some cheap crackerjack traded ring but a REAL one. How did he ever?

She was speechless- and now tears were falling from her eyes as she looked at him, "Oh Jay," she cried as she flung herself into his arms, "Of course I'll do it," she replied kissing him once- and he lifted herself and her on to the bed and started at her clothes.

(The end of the Mall)

"Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honour and dignity?" May asked when she saw Salene come in to check on her.

Her clothes her a wreck- and she was improperly trying to put a diaper on the baby.

"No, you just need help- here let me," Salene said taking over for her.

"Thanks- I just suck at this parent thing- I've tried so many times…"

"No, you don't- you just do better with them when they get to be Pride's age. Give it time. So after we return this guy to his mother- how about we go get some food?" Salene suggested standing up and holding the baby.

"Nah, how about we celebrate the midnight Christmas hour under the mistletoe so we might share a kiss- or two?" May asked with a smile as she looked at the clock.

"Better idea- give me five minutes"

(Five minutes later)

"Five, four, three, two, one- Merry Christmas"

"So- all is quiet on the western front?" May asked looking around.

Salene looked over her shoulder, "Seems to be"

"Good- then Merry Christmas indeed," May said moving in to kiss her.

"And now to wait right here for Santa- I think it's going to be a very long night!"

"Me too!"
