The next morning, Peter woke up quite late, "Huh? What am I doing here? I remember, I was in a drinking contest against Otto... " he sat up and found his upper clothing are gone, "What the hell...? "
He stood and walked towards the closet, and he changed to usual clothes. When he turned around, he saw blood on the bed. He freaked out and checked himself if he got wounded, "What the hell?! " he was relieved to find nothing,
"Sigh... I better-bleurgh! " he suddenly got dizzy, and rushed to the toilet to do his business
"Oh, you're awake! " said a lovely voice when he got out
"Scarlett? What are you doing here? " Scarlett told him that he passed out, losing to Otto in the drinking contest, "Brother Otto told me send you back here. " then she felt his forehead, "Mmm... You still have a slight fever... "
She made him sit on the sofa, "You sit there, I'll make you coffee. "
"Hey, what do you mean still? " he suddenly asked
"You broke to a high fever last night. Well, I helped you to lower your temperature. " she proudly said
"So, does that mean you stayed here all night? You didn't go home?! " he scolded
"N-No I did! I just came back to check if you still have a fever! " that's what she said, but what's on her mind is, "You raped me last night, you bastard! How am I supposed to go back home, if you sucked up all my strength?! "
After giving coffee to Peter, she went to cook breakfast. An hour later, Otto woke up, "Right on time, Brother Otto! Breakfast is ready! "
Otto stared blankly at the two people sitting at the dining table, acting as if nothing happened last night, "Otto, what's up? " Peter asked
"Something the matter Brother Otto? "
Otto just stood there, staring at them. A while later, Scarlett guessed why, "Y-You... Did you... Aaaahhh! " her face turned red. She squealed and ran back to the kitchen and hid.
"S-Scarlet?! What on earth is happening to the both of you?! " Peter was very confused about what's going on with the people around him. They were acting very strange!
"Sigh... Nevermind, Peter... "
When they finished breakfast, Scarlett decide that she should go home, "Change back to your clothes. I dried them last night. "
"Oh, thank you... Wait, you dried ALL of them? "
"Uh, yeah. I did- " then he remembered something. He dried ALL of them, meaning it includes her under wear
"Aaaaaaaaaahhh! " Scarlett screamed again, "You big idiot! Pervert, pervert, pervert, pervert, you big pervert! "
After breakfast, Scarlett bid farewell and immediately rushed back home, "I'm home! "
"Scarlett! Where did you go last night?! You didn't even made a telephone call! We were worried sick about you! " there he go again... Overreacting over Scarlett... Truth be told, you're the only one who's worried sick of her. Even the sergeant knew where she could possibly be. Sigh... That old man....
Scarlett headed back to her room, to change her clothes. Then she went back to the project she was working on: the scarf she was knitting. The coldest of winter was next month, so a scarf for Christmas present would be nice.
Scarlett and Violet decided to go somewhere in New York on Christmas day. But the first thing they did, was warm up with some their favorite coffee at their favorite place. This time, it was Ryker who was there, instead of Peter.
"Hey, Merry Christmas! " Scarlett said as she handed Violet a small box
"Oh! I uh, thank you! Haha. " she opened it it and found a red, hand-knitted ribbon, "Wow! You made this yourself? It's amazing! "
"It's nothing special. I just kinda practiced knitting, and made you something for Christmas! "
"Who would've thought you're going to give me something first? Here is yours. " she said as she gave Scarlett a customized bracelet, "I heard you're a fan of these things, so I personalized one for you! " the bracelet was golden, engraved with Scarlett's name on it. Yeah, Scarlett is fond of such things.
"I love it! Thank you! " the two girls chatted away, until Scarlett took a look on her watch, "We should be going then. The train will arrive in an hour. "
Meanwhile downstairs, at the restaurant's entrance, two men bumped on each other, "Peter Müller... "
"Parker Doss... "
"What are you doing here? " they both asked
"Fetching my... " they both said again
"... Wife. "
"... Dear. "
"Are you imitating me? " Parker asked back
"I could ask you the same... " Peter countered
The atmosphere was very tense and scary, that an old woman passing by, had heart attack. Good thing the hospital is just a few streets away, so ambulance came immediately and caused a commotion.
The two girls on the second floor also got startled by the events outside the restaurant, "What's going on? " Violet asked
They both exited the restaurant, and found an old lady being rescued from her heart attack. She was in crucial condition, her life could snap any minute, just because of two men staring daggers at each other.
Both girls felt familiar vibes, "What is that? " they turned their heads and saw two men, one is icy cold, lowering the harsh temperature even more, the other flamin' hot, melting anything near him, on the verge of butting each other.
"Parker? '
"Peter? "
Both their scary auras and killer vibes immediately disappeared, and their faces quickly formed charming smiles,
"Yeah? " they both asked, as they turned towards the familiar lovely voices calling their names
"What are you doing here? " Violet asked Parker
"I heard you and Scarlett are taking a trip to New York. I decide to come along! " he said warming her hands
Meanwhile on the other pair, "Why are you here? " asked Scarlett
"Nothing. I just heard you were going with Little Pat to New York, so I decided to tag along. " he said as he removed bits of snow on her hair
"Then I came across a certain someone... " both men said as they glared at each other
"Today's Christmas day! Can't you two get along! " both girls complained.
On the train station, the two girls booked tickets early. So the two men should go and buy their own. On the ticket booth, both men at the same time, bought their tickets. The girl in the couner was being squashed by the clashing auras of both men, causing her to pass out
"What took you so long? " the girls asked
"We uh... Fell in the long line. " they lied
The train finally arrived. They sat in one of the passenger cars, next to each other. When the conductor arrived to punch the tickets, he turned to Peter and Parker on the same time, "Here... " they both said as they handed over their tickets at the same time
"I reached it out first, punch mine now. " Parker said
"No, I did first, so get on with it. " aaaaand another one started
Parker pulled out his Dogtag and his Medal of Honor, "Lieutenant Parker Doss... I'm getting impatient here...! "
"Peter pulled out his Iron Cross and spoke in German, "Lieutenant Peter Müller... Your life is on my hands. "
"Hey, Peter! " scolded Violet
The poor conductor don't know what to do, kept glancing at both men, until, he too, passed out. Then suddenly, they felt something, like murderous, beside them. Their girls are glaring daggers at them, "You two...! "
"Huh? Scarlett? "
"Eh? Violet? "
"...Better shut up! " then both of them got hit on the neck and passed out
"The both of you are ruining the day! " they growled
About an hour later, they arrived at one of the stations. At the same time, the two men woke up, "Ooowww...! "
"We're here! " the girls said. Then they dragged them outside the car, making them carry some of their stuff.
The two couples took a stroll on the streets near the Time Square. The girls went on shopping spree, dealing critical damage to the men's wallets
At this point, the men needed to combine their powers to not make the girls unhappy, "Hey, Peter do you have any spare? "
"Ugh, negative. I have not much left too... "
Not only their wallets suffered, but they themselves suffered too. The girls made them carry everything they bought.
But above all, as long as both their beloved girls enjoyed themselves, them as well, enjoyed it too. The smiles on both their faces are enough to make their day.
