What comes next {Faberrittana} [Sequel to Why?] (Completed)

Chapter 49

-Shelby pov-
Not being in school has given me chances to be with the girls more. It's given us all chances to be here more. It's honestly nice to see the girls smiling. I've never seen everyone so happy.

Judy is teaching sugar softball. Maribel has taught whoever wants to cook how to. I've been able to help get things done. It's been a good time around the house.

So it's only common sense everyone is on edge. I mean things don't go our way like this. We never get a happy break that doesn't end horribly. So we all are braced for the worst to come.

We can hope nothing happens but it's not our luck. We all know how it's been for a while now. We are all also still stuck in the house. But the backyard has been made into a dig up softball field.

We've luckily only ended up with one broken window. Judy didn't realize Sam had more muscle on her. Luckily, no one was in there at the time. I've never seen the girls all crawl so fast though.

We barely got there on time to get them away from the broken glass on the ground.

Knock knock knock

"Uhh" I share a confused look with everyone in the room "Anyone expecting someone?"

"No" Mom gets up and walks to the front door with a baseball bat "But they aren't expecting this!"

"Mom!" I run over and grab the bat as she opens the door "Kate? Amanda?"

"H-hey" Amanda shivers with no jacket while Kate has two on her "O-our pow-powe-power went out"

"Get in here!" I pull Amanda into me and look at my mom "Get the heaters and some blankets!"

-Time skip-
Amanda finally has some color to her after about an hour. We got her covered in blankets and heaters on full blast toward her. How long have they not had power? Based on how bad she looked I'd guess a while.

"It's still cold in here" I look over at Judy "You are our survival expert!"

"Carole go over and cuddle with your girlfriend!" Carole nods and is quickly holding onto her "I don't know what else really to do"

"I'm gonna regret this" Janine sighs and looks at Rachel "I have a headache but getting a bunch of hot air in the room could help"

"Ing?" Janine nods and Rachel is off "I et ong!"

"What can I do?" We all look up to see Judys mom Amber "I was a scout leader and a nurse"

"Not a good one" I smack Judy on the thigh as Amber frowns "Go turn on the fire place and burn some wood"

Amber smiles and heads toward the fire place "Ok" She grabs some wood and the fire starter "I won't mess this up"

I smile and see Judy smile too. She really is trying to be better. Maybe she will make up for her mistakes. Maybe she is the bad that has come to us.

"I ot t!" Rachel comes in with a smile and a toy microphone "I ing!"

-Rachel singing-

The moon is right

We're here tonight
And that's enough

Simply having a wonderful christmastime

The choir of children sing their song
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong, ding Ohhhh
