The Moon Family's Musical Christmas Spectacular!

Performance #9: Melissa Shield

After the last performance, Jake was ready to move on. As he began to announce the final performer, a drumroll began as he announced them.

"The final performance is none other than. . ." Jake said as he waited for the drumroll to stop. "My girl, Melissa Shield!"

As he said that, Melissa came out to the front of the stage all dressed up in a green dress and sparkly green heels.

The sight of Melissa's new outfit made Jake blush as he admired her and made him fall even harder than he already has for her.

"Wow, Mel. . . you look amazing." Jake said, blushing. "Beautiful even."

"Thanks, Jake." Melissa smiled. "I've got to look my best when I sing."

"Of course." Jake said with a smile. "You dress the way you want for your time to shine. As it is the final solo performance of the night."

"You're emphasizing the word 'solo' a lot." Makayla said. "Is there more after this?"

"We'll have to wait and see." Jake said, looking back at Melissa. "Now, Melissa. . . it's time for you to steal the show!"

Melissa nodded in determination and Jake nodded back as he went backstage.

"Alright, everyone. . . as this is the final solo of the evening, I'll make this performance an unforgettable one!" Melissa said. "This is a song that I think will make a perfect gift for the one you love. And in my case, it is."

As she said that, music began to play and Melissa began to sing.

Melissa: "I don't want
a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
Yeah

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I Don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
there upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
with a toy on Christmas Day

I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You, baby

Oh, I won't ask for much
this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
and I, I'm just gonna keep on waiting underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it
to the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to hear
those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Oh, baby, all I want
for Christmas is you
You, baby

Oh-oh, all the lights are shining
so brightly everywhere
And the sound of
children's laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing

I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa, won't you bring me
the one I really need?
Won't you please
bring my baby to me?

Oh, I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my baby standing right outside my door
Oh, I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Oh, baby, all I want
for Christmas is you
You, baby

All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby"

When the song was over, Jake ran up to the stage and him and Melissa braced in a tight hug.

And at that moment, they heard jingle bells above them and looked up to see Owlbert dangle a mistletoe above them.

"Look at that." Jake said.

"A misteltoe. . ." Melissa said with a smirk.

"That means. . ." Jake said.

"Oh, stop thinking about it too much." Melissa said, before pulling Jake close and giving him a kiss on the lips, which Jake returned.

The crowd cheered wildly at this as this was a beautiful moment for the two of them.

After a few seconds, the two broke the kiss and were both left blushing on stage.

"Our first kiss. . ." Jake said.

"I couldn't have asked for a better present this year." Melissa smiled.

Backstage, everyone was cheering and having a blast. Well, almost everyone.

"I should've left. . ." Toga said, clenching her fists in frustration.

"Yeah, that's my boy!" Eda cheered from the back.

"Your rizz is impeccable!" King called back. "I learned that word from him."

"Oh, King." Makayla said, rolling her eyes. "You're even cute when you say cringe stuff."

"Hey, put me down!" King yelled.

Jake and Melissa laughed at the cute moment from backstage. They then looked back at each other with nothing but pure love in their eyes.

"I love you, Jake." Melissa said.

"And I. . . love you too, Melissa." Jake said with a smile.

The two of them then went in for another kiss, but they were quickly broken up by Knuckles.

"Okay, yes, you're in love." Knuckles said. "Geez. . . get a room."

"Why can't we be this touchy?" Rouge said with a flirtatious smirk.

"Not now, Rouge. . ." Knuckles said, gritting his teeth.

The crowd continues to cheer as everyone went backstage to prepare for one final surprise of the night.

But before Jake went back, he needed to make one more announcement.

"Don't forget to vote for who you think was the best." Jake said. "And the winner will be announced tomorrow. Along with another special surprise for all of you."
