The Day has come!
Now it's Christmas!
Pacifica was waking up early in the morning.
She stormed down the stairs and...nobody was there.
She was disappointed and sad.
Is it too early or didn't they make it?
They were supposed to arrive this morning.
She was about to return to her room and back into her bad, when she heard the door.
A mishmash of familiar and unfamiliar voices entered the room.
Then Pacifica was speartackled out of nowhere.
„Pacificaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!", that Person shouted, „Merry Christmas!"
It was Mabel.
Pacifica: „Oof...the same to you, Mabel!"
Mabel opened the hug and Pacifica spotted dipper.
And totally out of character, she also tackled Dipper, much like Mabel did with her, and hugged him.
After it she placed a little kiss on his cheek.
But efore Dipper could react to this, Pacifica heard an unfamiliar female voice: „Look, someone is really bold!"
Pacifica: „OMG, that's your parents, aren't they!?"
Dipper: „Yes, they are!"
Pacifica shouted: „Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!", and run away.
Dipper wanted to follow her, but was taken back by his mother.
Ms. Pines: „I scared her away. I'll handle this."
She did not have to search long, because Pacifica was hiding in the kitchen.
When Ms. Pines entered the room, her heart was almost broken.
Pacifica was sitting on the table, looking very miserable and tears were running down her cheeks.
Pacifica: „I ruined everything! Now you hate me!"
Ms. Pines: „That's not true! Maybe you have been a little brash and yes it have been a little shock, seeling an unfamiliar girl kissing my son, but it's not THAT bad! As long as you don't leave to the sleeping room together, everything is fine!"
Pacifica: „Really? What did Dipper told you about me?"
Ms. Pines: „Virtually everything!"
Pacifica: „Ugh...than you really have to hate me!"
The tears started to flow again.
Ms. Pines: „No sweety, we don't!"
Pacifica: „But...i have done so much crud! I've been mean to your kids and now i ruined your first expression of me, only because i thought they were coming alone."
Ms. Pines: „And? Mason already told me, you're still insecure in your new life."
Pacifica: „He really told it THAT detailed?"
Ms. Pines: „Yes, and he could not stop to fancy about your progression!"
Pacifica: „Oh...yeah, we have undergone alot of stuff last summer and after that we phoned and texted a lot. So...you really don't hate me?"
Ms. Pines: „Of course not! Every human beeing makes mistakes! And if i understood him correctly, most of it came from your parents!"
Pacifica: „That's kind of true, but i should have noticed my misbehaviour earlier and should have tried to fight against it!"
Ms. Pines: „You're still young and influenceable. You really had no chance!"
Pacifica: „I am a very bad person!"
Ms. Pines: „No, rather the opposite!"
Pacifica: „Why?"
Ms. Pines: „Because you stood up against your abusive parents and uncaged yourself!"
Pacifica: „But i should have done that much earlier! I did not recognized it, untill your kids made it clear to me, that i was an arrogant and mean brat!"
Ms. Pines: „You said it...WAS!"
Pacifica: „But i don't know how much of my bad behavior has survived! What if i fall back into it and pester everyone around me?"
Ms. Pines was feeling sorry for Pacifica. Every try to cheer her up failed. Than she took her hands.
Pacifica was shocked, stopping the tears from flowing.
Ms. Pines: „That won't happen! And you have friends, which will be there for you and help!"
Pacifica smiled the first time this day, since she saw the parents.
Ms. Pines: „Believe me, we don't hate you! Yes, you've made mistakes, but you take the responsibility for it, and that we endorse."
Pacifica: „Thank you, Ms. Pines."
Ms. Pines: „And i am very glad, you could break free from your parents. What the twins told us about them was very horrid."
Pacifica: „Yes, that's true! They raised me to be mean on purpose! I am so happy, i was able to break free."
Ms. Pines: „I sure believe you are!"
Pacifica: „Without your kids i would not be here now. They are meaning a lot to me, you know!?"
Ms. Pines: „And you mean a lot to THEM, that's for sure! So...you follow me back into the livingroom?"
Pacifica: „You really want to have me with you?"
Ms. Pines: „Of couse! As far as it concerns me, you're part of our family now!"
Pacifica was overwhelmed of joy and hugged Ms. Pines.
Back in the livingroom both sat on the table.
Pacifica was sitting between the twins.
Mr. Pines: „Have you been able to sort everything out, dear?"
Ms. Pines: „Fortunately yes!"
All People on the table did enjoy a very good breakfast.
Their was many talking and laughing.
But then the Doorbell rang.
Ms. Pines: „Are we expecting more guests?"
Stan: „Not me, for sure!"
Ms. Pines opened the door and their stood a delivery man, reacing a letter to her.
Mr. Pines: „It's for Pacifica!"
Pacifica: „Ugh...it's from my real mother!"
Susan: „Oh no! What is she up to?"
Susan was worried about Pacifica.
Pacifica quoted the letter: „Dear ex-daughter… Really? Did she really have to mock me? Okay, continue… Even if you are not part of our family anymore… I cannot read this! Sorry!"
Susan took the letter and continued: „…, so it want to let you know, that i always loved you, even if i did not show it to you. Your father was way too strict to you. I did not have the willpower to prevent him from doing it. But i don't want to whitewash myself. I know i have made my mistakey myself. And i know i cannot make them undone. Don't fear, i do not want you to come back. Obviously you are feeling better in your new life. I have problems understanding it, but if it makes you happy, it makes me happy. I want to make you and your new mother a christmas present. I will take on the costs necessary to rebuild Susan Wentworthes house. After the divorse i got half of the remaining wealth, so it is the very least i could do. Yours faithfully, Priscilla Northwest."
Pacificas eyes opend wide.
Never would she have expected her mother would ever contact her again.
All other people were speechless, too.
Susan smiled and hugged Pacifica.
Mabel ran to them and joined them.
After the three opened the hug, Dipper was coming over.
Dipper: „Hey, i'm so happy for you!"
Pacifica: „I really want to hug you now, but i am scared!"
Mr. & Ms. Pines: „It's okay!"
Pacifica was overjoyed and hugged Dipper deeply.
And the day continued to be great.
Many games were played and many laughes were happening.
At late afternoon Pacifica and the twins had some time alone for them.
Dipper: „I'm glad it's a little quieter now.
Mabel: „Paz. You changed a bit since last summer."
Pacifica: „How do you mean that?"
Dipper: „You are beautyfull as always!"
Mabel: „I did not intend to hurt you!"
Pacifica sighed.
Pacifica: „Yeah, you're right. I had so much stuff going on the last months, so i…"
Dipper: „It's okay. Look at Mabel and her sugarconsumption. It's showing, too!"
Mabel: „HEY!"
Dipper: „You are BOTH beautifull and i love you BOTH!"
Both girls calmed down.
Mabel: „Sorry Paz!"
Dipper: „And i like your slightly rounder face. It intensifies the magic of your smile!"
Pacifica blushed.
Pacifica: „I'm not even wearing makeup today. I have to look awful!"
Dipper: „No, you don't! You don't need any makeup! You're looking eben better without it!"
The red in Pacificas face turned purple.
„You're both the best!", she said and hugged the twins.
Then she whispered: „Honestly, i am wearing not much lately anyway, because i cannot effort it anymore."
Dipper: „Look at it as a sure indication of your positive progression."
Mabel: „Yeah, you're much more natural and buoyant now!"
Pacifica: „You're right. I'm feeling much better today. Now i have real friends and people who care about me. Back then there have been only the butlers. Sure, they've done everything i told them, but have they given me affection and comfort? No! They've only done their work and i'm sure they have been glad, when i let them be."
Pacifica laughed. „That feels so different now!"
Ms. Pines: „Children, the dinner is ready!"
Pacifica: „Believe it or not, i'm hungry again! And you know what? I don't care anymore! My parents did not let me eat enough to get replete, so i earn it!"
Dipper & Mabel: „You do!"
The dinner was rich and tasty.
Pacifica: „OMG, i forgot the present for the twins! I'll be right back!"
Ms. Pines: „Now i'm eager to know what it is!"
Pacifica was back and said: „You know i'm not rich anymore, so please don't be too excited about it!"
Mabel: „You don't have to give us something. To have you here with us is the greatest gift!"
Pacifica blushed again.
„Thanks, but here, open it please!", she said.
Dipper opened his first.
Dipper: „Wow! Did you made this sweater yourself?"
Pacifica: „Yes!" She was very proud! Mabel looked at her and was also proud of her!
Dipper: „Thanks! I will pull it over right now!" And he did!
The sweater was sitting perfectly and was very cozy.
Mabel: „You rock, girl!"
Pacifica: „I have something for you, too! It's not selfmade and not new, but i think you may like it!"
Mabel opened the present.
Mabel: OMG! It's the crown from the karaoke-contest!"
Pacifica: „Yeah, i do not deserve it, because i bribed McGucket...sorry!"
Mabel teared up and said: „Oh Pacifica!"
Ms. Pines: „See? I told you, you're not a bad person!"
Mabel could not help it and hugged Pacifica again.
After all this it was getting calm again.
Ms. Pines was going into the kitchen to wash up. The kids were helping her. It was nothing new to Pacifica, because it's Part of her work at the diner.
The rest of the evening was used for watching movies.
Dipper and Pacifica were holding hands, while watching the christmas programming. But only after the got the permission of his parents. Pacifica wanted to keep good with them.
It was late, when everybody was going to sleep. Pacifica was really tired, but it feels good. It was a wonderful day with lovely people and much fun.
She realized, they will stay untill new years day and was happy.
This night she only had nice dreams!
