Hijinks, Holdups and Harrows

Chapter 38

Stella started crying again in the middle of the night.

Jill was at the end of her rope and had already tried everything, so she just climbed in the crib with her.

Believe it or not, Stella stopped crying when Jill was laying down with her.

Pretty soon, Stella was fast asleep.

"Need help getting out?" Paul asked Jill.

"I don't think I want to get out" Jill sighed happily. 

"So it's alright if I get some sleep?" said Paul.

"Certainly" said Jill.

"Good night. I love both my girls" said Paul.

"We love you too" said Jill.

With that, Paul went back to bed and they both got a good night's sleep, for once.

"You slept in the crib?" said Patty.

"Greg told me his wife did it when she had a baby. I thought it was absurd, but I had no alternative" said Jill.

"How'd you even fit in there?" said Meg.

"It's Jill. She could take a bath in the sink" said Chad.

Jill smirked. "I don't, but I could."

Batman smiled softly. "Well then. It's nearly midnight, so I believe this thrilling party must end for now."

"I think Batman's right. Good night to all you guys" said Calvin.

"Sam, I'll see you at work" said Andy.

"Be there bright and early" said Sam.

"This was fun, Batman" said Meg as she left with her husband.

"We're delighted you could come" said Batman.

With that, the party was over and Batman and Robin could turn back into Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson.

And now that they knew what all their friends did during the holidays, they were darn sure that this was the wildest holiday season yet.
