Home Alone Fan Fiction Remake

chapter 13

A year had already gone by and it was close to next Christmas, and like last year, the McCallister family decided to go to Florida, despite Kevin's protests since he liked to see snow and Christmas trees on Christmas and didn't want to see sand or palm trees. Max's grandmother was also lucky with her bingo games which usually had money prizes so she could provide for herself and her granddaughter and it allowed them to go to New York, only, Max took a job at one of the hotels and she was surprised that she was able to keep it, after being fired from her previous jobs, yet again. However, tonight, was a special night, everybody was going to the school since there was a pageant with the school choir singing and Kevin had a big solo. Chelsea was dressing William in a cute, warm, little Christmas-y outfit. She herself was dressed in a warm comfy outfit. She cooed and smiled at William. William laughed his cute little laugh, smiling toothless at his mother.

Kevin was upstairs, he was all suited up, but was just playing around with a tape recorder he got for Christmas last year and was watching a game show, testing it out.

Chelsea smiled and picked him up. "Let's go see your Uncle Kevin." she says in a happy gasp.

William clapped his hands. Kate was packing. Kevin was all packed, he was just taking a break until it was time to go. Once he saw his tape recorder worked properly, he was satisfied with himself.

Chelsea knocked on the door-frame. "Someone wants to see Uncle Kevin~" she smiled.

William gave a coo. Kate glanced over and grinned.

Kevin put his device down a moment and went to get the door and smiled to his sister and nephew. "Hey, William." he waved his fingers gently and small to the baby boy.

Chelsea smiled. William was entranced by Kevin's fingers and gripped one lightly.

Kevin allowed him to, then looked up to Chelsea. "Are you guys packed?" she asked her as William obviously couldn't or wouldn't answer.

"Yep, like I know you are, Kev... Florida is gonna be icky though... No snow." Chelsea sighed gently.

William flexed his hand around Kevin's finger, squeezing and loosening his grip.

"Yeah..." Kevin pouted. "There won't be any Christmas trees either..."

His television had brought up that winners of the 'Celebrity Ding Dang Dong' would receive luxury by spending their winter holiday at the one and only Plaza Hotel.

"That's where I wanna go..." Kevin then said as he heard about it. "I wanna spend Christmas in New York."

"Yeah..." Chelsea agrees.

William cooed in agreement. Kate looked at them.

"You don't wanna spend Christmas in Florida either, don't ya?" Kevin asked his nephew then.

"William... What do we say to things we don't like?" Chelsea asks, grinning as she held a finger to show to wait.

William blew a raspberry.

Kevin had a small laugh to that. "Smart kid."

William laughed. Chelsea smiled, very amused and nodded.

"That settles it then..." Kevin gently let out of William's grip. "Besides, Max is there."

"We're going to Florida, Kevin." Kate states.

"Why do we have to go to Florida anyway?" Kevin frowned to his mother. "There won't be any Christmas trees."

"We're not having a repeat of last year, we're going to have a nice family holiday this time," Kate says. "Now have you packed the thing your Grandma Penelope sent you?" She then asks Kevin.

"Let me guess..." Kevin actually didn't see it, but knowing his grandmother, it had to be something silly. "Donald Duck slippers?"

"Nope.... A pool buddy." Kate grinned holding up an inflatable clown.

William started to cry.

Chelsea rocked and held him gently, gently shushing at him. "Shh, shh, shh~" she soothes.

"How exciting..." Kevin deadpanned as he took it, not too thrilled to be given that. He didn't blame William for crying, clowns are really freaky. "Why can't we just go to New York or somewhere else? I want snow and Christmas trees, not sand and palm trees..." He thought Florida was a good spring break vacation spot, not one for a Christmas vacation.

Kate finished her packing.

"I'll wait downstairs, Kev, your tie is in the bathroom." Chelsea said softly, smiling at him.

William sniffled and whimpered. Kevin shuddered about going there, knowing Uncle Frank was going to take a shower, but he figured it he just went in and would get it, he wouldn't 'grow up never feeling like a real man', whatever that meant. Peter came to find Kate to find batteries for the new camcorder. Kate told Peter where they were. Peter bent down by the alarm clock charger, he briefly unplugged it to get the battery and put it back in, unaware that it changed the time on the clock.

Uncle Frank was heard singing loudly in the shower and Kevin snuck in to grab his tie, but he couldn't help but stay, he played with his tape recorder a little more, trying to stay in the background. Chelsea was downstairs, putting a coat on William.

Frank noticed Kevin after a little. "Get out of here you nosy little pervert or I'll slap you silly!" Uncle Frank shouted.

Kevin gasped and ran out the room, shutting the door behind him. Chelsea cooed at William. William saw Buzz and started to tell him off in baby babble noises.

"Yeah, yeah, goo goo to you too..." Buzz scoffed as he carried his robe as he had a part in the Christmas pageant as well.

"Buzz, don't insult your nephew!" Chelsea scolds.

William blew a raspberry at Buzz.

Buzz glared back at William, then just walked off. "Dumb baby..." he muttered under his breath.

Chelsea glared at her brother. William blew another raspberry. Buzz scoffed, he wanted to teach William a lesson, but he was told he would be in a lot of trouble if he harmed the baby. Kevin got his tie on and looked more like a young gentleman than just a little ten-year-old boy. Chelsea looked to Kevin and smiled. William cooed.

Kevin smiled and did playful model poses to them. "How do I look?" he asked after he was done looking like a little show-off.

"Great." Chelsea smiled.

William cooed happily. Kevin smiled to them, it was almost time to go, he was a little more tolerable with participating in the pageant since he was a little older and he was willing to get it done and over with. What could possibly go wrong with it?
