Chapter 12 The Christmas Hook-up
December 25, 1999
It was Emily's and James's first Christmas. Tommy and Kim had also come up with a plan for Jason and Kat.
"Kim, you're good," Tommy said.
He walked over to his wife and kissed the top of her head.
"I know I am," Kim smiled.
Tommy gasped as he saw then drive up.
"Here they come," he said.
Zack, who knew the plan, quickly walked through the door, stopping in a spot where Jason and Kat would be under the door.
"Merry Christmas," Tommy and Kim said.
"Merry Christmas," the three smiled.
Zack stepped forward and cleared his throat. He blocked the pair from coming in with his hand.
"Looks like you two have to kiss," Zack said.
"Huh," they asked.
Zack, Tommy, and Kim pointed to the top of the door. Jason and Kat looked up to find the mistletoe above them.
"Go on and kiss already," Kim said.
Jason gave Kat a quick kiss on the lips. He gave Kim an evil glance as he walked into the kitchen. Zack sighed and joined Kat and Jason.
"Do you think this was a good idea," Kim asked as she tried to position Emily comfortably in her arms.
"Of course it was," Tommy said. "He kissed her on the lips."
"That's what you're supposed to do under the mistletoe," Kim laughed.
"Believe me, he would've just kissed her cheek," Tommy said.

About an hour later after they ate, Jason and Kat walked outside. As soon as the door closed, everyone started laughing. They knew the pair had feelings for each other, but hadn't done anything about it.
"Oh, it's freezing out here," Kat said.
Jason looked down as Kat wrapped her arms around her.
"Here, take my jacket," he said.
Kat looked down and smiled as Jason placed his jacket on her shoulders.
"Thank you," she smiled.
Kat looked up at the leafless trees and sighed.
"You know what would make this Christmas perfect," she asked.
"What," Jason wondered.
"Snow," Kat said.
Like magic, snow began to fall from the sky. Kat gasped and put her hands over her mouth.
"No way," she said.
Jason smiled and wrapped one hand around her. Kat flinched a little, not expecting it.
"There's only one more thing to do now," Jason said.
Kat gave him a puzzled look.
"What's that," she asked.
"This," Jason whispered.
He slowly leaned down and kissed Kat. She touched her lips as they broke apart.
"Wow," Kat said. "You don't know how long I've wanted you to do that."

Tommy was walking out of Hayley's Cyberspace when he felt his body being teleported. He ended up on the floor of a lab.
"What's going on," Tommy asked.
He got up and just stood there. His eyes moved left to right, but he saw no one.
"So nice of you to join us," a voice hissed.
Tommy gulped as he turned around. He gasped when he saw the creature's face. There were also two others with him.
"Who are you," Tommy asked.
"I'm Mesogog," he said.
"And you two freaks," Tommy asked.
The one in the metal armor walked closer to Tommy.
"I'm Zeltrax. This is Elsa," he said.
"Dating," Tommy asked.
Elsa rolled her eyes.
"I see we have a comedian," she said.
"What do you want with me," Tommy asked.
"You have something I need," Mesogog said.
Tommy had no clue what the creep would need that he had.
"I don't know what you're talking about," he said.
"I think you do," Mesogog hissed.
Tommy stepped back as the lizard looking creature walked towards him.
"Alright, what is it," Tommy asked.
"The gems," Mesogog said.
"You're out of your mind if you think I'm giving them to you," Tommy laughed.
"Be that way then. But they will be mine," Mesogog said.

Tommy got out of the jeep and ran inside the house.
'Kim," he yelled.
"Tommy, what is it," she asked.
He looked towards the living room, where Emily was playing in her playpen.
"Remember the gems I found on a dig with Mercer a couple of months ago," Tommy asked.
"Yeah," Kim said.
"Something's after them," Tommy sighed.
Kim gave an aggravated sigh as she crossed her arms.
"Something as in a none-human villain who wants to take over the world," she asked.
"Yup," Tommy said.
"Oh God," Kim cried.
Tommy took her in his arms as she covered her face with her hands.
"I thought this was over," Kim sobbed.
"Yeah, so did I," Tommy said.
He kissed the top of her head looked away.

This is rare for me to be able to update stories two days in a row. I don't think another chapter will be updated tomorrow for any other of my other stories. If I do, I'll be shocked. So, we'll see.
