After the delicious meal, Remy approached Trixie, and asked: "Say, dearest, do you know a place in this mansion where it isn't as noisy right now? I'd like to give you the gift in a more quiet place."
"I guess my room near the balcony should be quiet enough", Trixie replied, trying to ignore the pet name again. Before she left her room hours ago, Trixie cleaned up the place and hid anything embarrassing or potentially name-blemishing from plain sight (this includes her present to Timmy), so she could safely talk to Remy there.
Plus, the need for some quiet space benefited not only Remy, but Trixie as well: it means she didn't have to worry about making a scene when rejecting him.
"Great", Remy said. Now if you would like to escort me there?"
"Certainly", Trixie said coolly. She brought Remy to her bedroom.
"So", Remy said as he sat on Trixie's bed. "Ready to receive your second present from me?"
Trixie sighed as she sat next to Remy. "Let's just get this over with", she said.
Remy gave her another box. A bit smaller than the one that housed Remy's necklace.
Trixie opened the box, and pulled out a platinum tiara, embedded with a large, star-shaped emerald.
What's his thing with emeralds, Trixie thought.
"Do you like it", Remy asked. "I think it's fit for my queen."
"I kinda like it", Trixie admitted, "but I think you overhyped it. It's a nice tiara, but I don't feel like begging to be your girlfriend at all."
Remy was puzzled by this. "How can you not have any feelings for me after receiving two wonderful gifts, but you seem to have feelings for that Turner boy after he gave you something that's not even half the price of both of my gifts combined?"
"Well, for one, I know Timmy for a longer time than I know you", Trixie said.
"Pff, time is unimportant", Remy said. "I could woo any girl with gifts like these, you know?"
"Remy, I don't even know how you're like", Trixie said. "All I know is that you like me. You seriously don't think I'm captivated by any stranger that gives me something luxurious and expensive?"
"But you did love all the gifts other rich kids gave you", Remy said.
That was true. But as Trixie reflected on this, she did find there was something that has changed between then and now.
"But something has changed inbetween", Remy continued. "I see that you're having feelings for Turner now, which you rejected multiple times before, if I recall correctly. Why are you suddenly falling for that loser now?"
Trixie thought about this. "I think it's because I realized how much effort he uses to get me to like him", she said, "as he seemingly still has a special place for me in his heart even after millions of rejections."
She continued: "He also seems to have something magical about him, and I can't really explain why. And, I think we know more about each other than we let on."
There's a fourth reason why Trixie's got feelings for Timmy, but she hesitated telling anyone about it.
Jealousy, of sorts.
Timmy and his friends all like comic books and video games, yet aren't ashamed of that.
Trixie herself actually likes comic books and video games too, but due to her social status, no one can know about it or she'll be outcasted.
She wishes that she could hang out with Timmy and play video games without anyone judging her. She dearly wishes she can reveal her passion for Skull Squisher comics without any of her friends being judgmental about it.
Somehow, she thinks Timmy may actually know this tomboyish side of hers.
This appears to be the most important reason why Trixie likes Timmy, but she would be afraid that Remy would think bad of her, or worse: snitch on her and reveal this to her friends.
She would never forgive him if he did that.
So she decided to not tell Remy this.
"...That's it?" Remy asked.
"Kind of", Trixie replied.
Remy thought for a bit. "You know, I bet I can still woo you despite this."
Trixie sighed with disappointment. Is it so hard for Remy to respect her love choices?
"I promise that there won't be anymore gifts today, but I think we can still hang out somewhere later", Remy said, as he grabbed a phone. "Wait here."
Remy then left her room, searching for restaurants and theaters on his phone.
This gives Trixie some alone time to reflect upon what happened, or what will happen.
She checked the time. It's 6:45 PM. She can't believe the evening's still young, because tonight's been just as boring as any other Christmas Party. And most of the new guests aren't fun to talk to, either.
But Remy's obsession with wooing her is probably the worst aspect about the party so far. Trixie's not expecting the party to be better.
She'd rather be somewhere else.
With a certain bucktoothed kid.
Trixie searched for a winter coat in her wardrobe, as well as some stylish winter boots, mittens and a scarf, which she put on immediately. She then took her gift to Timmy from a hiding spot and hid it under her coat.
Realizing that Remy may want to stop her if she just walked out of her room like that, she decided to grab a few more scarves and tie them together.
She opened the doors to the balcony.
It was snowing. It was a beautiful sight to behold, but Trixie hasn't got the time to admire the view.
She knotted one end of her scarf rope on the railing and threw the other end down to the ground. She climbed down her scarves and searched for her trendy bike.
When she was about to cycle away, she saw the gray garbage container, which reminded her of something.
She pulled out the gold necklace with sapphire pendants that Remy threw away yesterday, cleaned it up and wore it around her neck. After that, she left the street.
"Oh, Trixie, dear", Remy called when she approached her room. "I've found the most perfect fancy restaurant, and-"
Remy silenced himself when he saw the lack of a beautiful asian girl. He also saw that her room has been rummaged for a bit, and that a note was being left on her bed.
Remy picked up the note and read: 'I'll be back at the end of the evening. Don't look for me. -T'
Then Remy noticed that the balcony had a scarf tied on its railing.
While Vicky was watching her marathon, Timmy and his friends were discussing which movie they're gonna watch.
"Okay, so I was thinking either 'Crimson Chin vs Nega Chin' or the 'Crash Nebula Movie', but other suggestions are also welcome", Timmy said.
"Wait, is the 'Crash Nebula Movie' based on the original comics, the TV show, or the 2015 reboot show", Chester asked. "'Cuz if it's the latter, let's not pick that one because the 2015 reboot really sucks."
"Chester, the 2015 reboot doesn't even have a movie yet", Timmy sighed.
"I know, let's watch that 'Transmorphers' movie", AJ suggested.
"Ugh, no thanks", Chloe said. "'Transmorphers' is really not for me. Why not watch one of the 'Space Trip' movies?"
"As long as it's one of the even-numbered sequels", AJ said. "The odd-numbered ones tend to be a real bore."
"Why not watch 'The Unsueable Arachnid-Man'", Chester suggested.
This debate continued for a while, until a doorbell interrupted them.
"TWERPS, open the door", Vicky could be heard from down below.
Timmy sighed. "Let's go, men", he told his friends.
As the four droned downstairs, they were speculating who it could be.
"Who could be visiting you at 7:00 PM, Timmy", AJ asked.
"Probably the pizza delivery guy", Timmy guessed. "Vicky tends to order a pizza when she's babysitting. For herself, that is. And guess who has to pay for it."
But when they opened the door, no pizza delivery man stood before them.
In fact, it was someone Timmy never expected to visit him this day.
"Trixie?" Timmy exclaimed.
