Chapter 6. Shake Up Christmas
An hour passed since the gift exchange happened, but the guests are still enjoying themselves by eating whatever is left of the food, which is plenty. The adults talking about their everyday lives, the girls gossiping about celebrities and boybands, while the boys host a safe wrestling match, Sherman vs. Mason for the replica WWE World title. Neither of the boys got serious injuries, and Sherman came on top after knocking Mason down and pinning him, counting 1, 2, 3, and raising his title in the air. Sherman, Mason, and Carl share a laugh over what just happened
Sherman: That was pretty fantastic.
Mason: Yeah, I'll admit, you beat me.
Carl: So now what?
The boys think on what to do next, especially Sherman, he was getting bored really fast. Suddenly, the auburn haired child spotted his karaoke machine that was used several times today since Paul used it (very poorly). Carl used it to sing 'Monster' by Imagine Dragons, Jill used it to sing 'Dark Horse' by Katy Perry, Mason used it to sing 'Iridescent' by Linkin Park, and Penny used it to sing 'Payphone' by Maroon 5. Immediately, Sherman had an idea.
Sherman: How about I sing?
Carl: Sure, that sounds like fun.
Mason: What song are you planning to sing?
Sherman: You'll see.
So Sherman walked up to the machine and picked up the microphone. He browsed his karaoke CD collection before finding one and popping it into the disc drive.
Sherman: *speaking into the microphone* Testing.
Everyone stops what they're doing and focuses their attention to Sherman.
Sherman: Hello everyone. I'm gonna be singing one of my favorite songs for this time of year. I hope you like it..
The partygoers start to clap softly for Sherman. He then readies himself, hits the play button, and the lyrics appear on the screen as the white letters turn blue as they're sung
Ho . Ho. Ho.
Shake up the happiness, wake up the happiness, shake up the happiness!
Its Christmas time!
There's a story that I once told, and I wanna tell the world before I get too old.
I don't remember it, so let's December it, and reassemble it!
Oh yeah!
Once upon a time in a town like this, a little girl made a great big wish. To fill the world full of happiness and, be on Santa's magic wish!
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all, its Christmas time!
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all. Its Christmas time!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
It's Christmas time!
Everyone listens to Sherman's singing and start to dance mildly as the song starts.
At the same time miles away, a little boy made a wish that day. That the world would be okay, and Santa Claus would hear him say
I got dreams and I got love. I got my feet on the ground and family above! Can you send some happiness with my best to the rest of the people of the east and the west and?
Maybe every once in a while, you'll give my grandma a reason to smile. Tis the season to smile. It's cold, but we'll be freezing in style
And let me meet a girl one day that, wants to spread some love this way. We can let our souls run free, and , she can open some happiness with me!
The dancing intensifies as the song moves along. The adults move slightly faster, while the kids dance happily and cheerfully.
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all! It's Christmas time!
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all! It's Christmas time!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Its Christmas time!
Everyone starts to clap their hands as Sherman continues singing.
I know you're out there, I hear your reindeer. I see the snow where your boots have been.
I'm gonna show them, so they will know then, that love will grow when...
They believe again!
The guests all start to dance again, as Sherman looks to finish the song.
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all! It's Christmas time!
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all. It's Christmas time!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
It's Christmas time!
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all! It's Christmas time!
Shake it up! Shake up the happiness! Wake it up! Wake up the happiness! Come on y'all! Its Christmas time!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
It's Christmas time!
Sherman finishes the song to everyone applauding him. Mr. Peabody was proud of his son's ability to sing, the Petersons were blown away by his talent, and the kids were cheering, with Penny being the loudest. Sherman walks up to them and is automatically trapped into a hug by Penny.
Penny: Oh my god Sherman, that was amazing! You sang so cool, and sweet. I loved it!
Sherman blushes mildly as he returns the hug.
Sherman: Aww, thanks Penny.
All of a sudden, Mason, Carl, Jill and Abby start giggling like five year old girls. This catches the attention of Sherman and Penny.
Sherman: What's so funny guys?
Jill: you should... *breathe* you should look up!
The four gigglers point up to the ceiling. Sherman and Penny raise their eyebrows as they looked up. But the two were shocked to see what was floating above their heads... a mistletoe!
To be Continued...
A/N: Ooh! Cliffhanger! Not a good present on Christmas Eve. But don't worry, all will be revealed in the seventh and final chapter.
Sherman and Penny are dangling under the mistletoe. Hee hee. But I'm not gonna show it now! I'm so evil! :)
Stay tuned for tomorrow: Christmas Day! That's the day when "Christmas Party" gets updated for the final time.
