NOTE TO Guest: Sorry, as I have said several times before, Bobby and Tara will not be paired in these stories, they don't match in my mind, other than family. If you really want that combo, there are several other stories that do that that are pretty great! Check those out!

"Careful!" Maddy warned the delivery guy as he brought in their tree into their apartment on Friday morning. With a bit more maneuvering, it was inside, and a few minutes later, in the stand, trying to get even. "A little to the left, no, my left." She said. Mya and the tree guy were balancing it. "There. Perfect."

The two sisters took a moment to look at their tree. "It's perfect." Mya said.

Maddy nodded, happily smiling. "Yes, it is. I can't wait to decorate it tomorrow!"

Mya smiled. "ME-TOO."

Myles satisfactorily smiled at his large tree, which was just delivered as well. It stood in the front window for all to see. After admiring it for a few minutes, he decided it was time to leave for work.

"Touting off your money in your front window, are we, Leland?" A voice said as Myles was closing his front door.

"Webber." Myles grumbled as he turned the key in the lock. Once locked up, he turned to face his neighbor. "Is it wrong to like the more finer things in life?"

"Yes, when you show off to your less fortunate neighbors." Webber replied.

"Having a tree in my front window is not 'showing off'. Many people do that!" He exclaimed, annoyed.

"Yes, but not that large. The kiddies around here might get jealous." Webber replied.

"Oof, you," Myles grumbled, steamed. He could think of a perfect, demeaning response, but decided against saying it aloud, and just walk to his garage to get his car.

"That's what you ought to do, walk away when you're confronted! Is that what you do at the almighty FBI?" Webber called after him.

Myles kept quiet, clenching his fists. "Keep calm, get in the car and go." He said to himself. Thankfully, he was a few feet from his car. He got in, locked the doors, and took a deep breath. "Now if only I could run over Webber and make it look like an innocent accident." He said as he backed the car out of the drive. Unfortunately, Webber was now nowhere to be seen.

"I wish we got Friday off." Tara mumbled to herself.

"ME-TOO." Amy replied, seeing what she had said. "MAYBE US-TWO MAKE PETITION, SAY FRIDAY AFTER THANKSGIVING OFF SHOULD."

"ME SIGN THAT!" Shane excitedly signed, seeing what they said.

"OK, OK, let's get back to work, huh? The faster we finish, the faster we get to a weekend of relaxing, and Christmas decorating." Josh said and signed.

Tara smiled widely at him. "You've got a hot Christmas tree-decorating date, don't you?"

He smiled at her. "No. Maybe. Yes." He replied, pausing between each answer. "It's Maddy's day."

"But you get to spend it with Mya."

Josh nodded. "And it will be a lot of fun."

Tara smiled. "Yes, of course it will!"

Mya happily hummed and shuffled her feet as she waited for her hot chocolate water to warm up.

"What on earth are you doing?" Myles complained. He was especially irritated from the incident from the morning.

"Oh, uh, sorry. Bad habit I picked up years ago." She replied. "It's tap dance. I used to take it. Now I have to wait till I'm 55 to take it again, unless I want to pay exorbitant prices. When I'm standing in place, my brain just practices randomly."

"You used to tap dance?" Sarah asked.

Mya nodded. "Yeah. Loved it."

"I myself was a ballet person, but I always love watching tap in old movies! So, you could like, do all those dance steps?" She asked.

Mya cocked her head side to side. "Yeah, sorta. I mean, I know them, but to actually do a number like that? I don't know."

"Girls. Why do they have to take over the conversation?" Bobby asked Jack as the women chatted about great dance numbers from classic movies.

Jack smiled. "Were you even talking before? No."

"No, I wasn't, but if I had something to say, I couldn't, since they took over the room with girly stuff!" He complained.

"Well, I have something to say that will take over the conversation." Jack said, standing up. "Guys," He said loudly to get everyone's attention. Nothing. "Guys! We have a case!" He said louder. That got everyone's attention. "Ironically, it's at a dance studio." He said, half-smiling.

"Aw man, more girly talk!" Bobby complained.
