Penny's POV

Today's the day for Christmas! I get to spend time not only with my brother, but also with Bryon and the contestants!

I went to the open area where we could celebrate Christmas.

I saw Pax and Bryon decorating the pine tree with Christmas decorations.

Pax: Hello little sister! Want to help us decorate this pine tree?

Penny: Yep!

I went to the two to help them decorate the tree.

Especially the top and bottom parts of the tree, with their help.

After an hour passed by, I followed Pax and Bryon to their cabins.

I sat outside with Bryon at a picnic table.

Penny: So how are you with Pax?

Bryon: I'm alright with him. Heck, he was cute.

Penny: That's great to hear.

Pax: Uh guys? I'll be back to get you some hot cocoa from the cafeteria if that's okay with you two.

Bryon: It's alright, we'll wait for you, darling.

We witness Pax leaving for the cafeteria to get some drinks for us.

I noticed that Bryon was hiding something beside him on his seat.

Penny: Is something wrong, Bryon?

Bryon: Um about that... just say I'm nervous about giving Pax a gift when celebrating together.

Penny: It's okay Bryon, Pax will love you more than the gift. What matters is that you get to spend time with him later.

Bryon: You're right.

Pax arrives while carrying the tray of hot cocoa for the three of us.

Pax: Did I miss anything, sister?

Penny: Nope, you didn't miss anything.

Pax sat with us as we continued to talk while drinking the hot cocoa.

End of Penny's POV

Meanwhile, with Pierce

Pierce was looking for the box that had mechanical arms since he needed it.

Pierce: Please, this better be it... stupid Penny for not letting me have access to the mechanical arms...

Pierce saw the box of mechanical arms on the bleachers.

Pierce: Yes! Finally!

He looked at the box and thought for a moment.

Pierce: Wait... how the fuck am I going to wear those if I don't have arms!?

Then he saw Beatrix, who was waiting for Rayna.

Pierce: Hey Beatrix!

Beatrix: Yes?

Pierce: Can you please put the mechanical arms on me, so it can be easier?

Beatrix: Alright then...

Beatrix helps Pierce wear the mechanical arms.

Beatrix: And... done! Here you go!

Pierce: Thank you!

Rayna: Hey sister!

Beatrix: Hm?

Rayna: Let's go to the kitchen to cook something.

Beatrix: Alright!

Rayna and Beatrix went to the cafeteria to go to the kitchen.

Pierce: Finally, it's time for me to shove this thing up his ass.

Colton: Not for long.

Pierce looks at Colton, who also has mechanical arms.

Pierce: Wait, how the fuck did you have those?!

Colton: Oh this? Just say Marcel helped me with the mechanical arms.

Pierce: I shall challenge you to boxing! Two of us!

Colton: Oh it's on!

Pierce starts punching Colton while Colton uses both of his arms to block his punches.

Marcel: Not again...

Warren: Classic Colton and Pierce.

Marcel: Are we going to watch them fight or leave them?

Warren: We'll leave them.

Marcel: Alright then.

Marcel and Warren went to their cabins to relax with the other contestants.

Meanwhile, with Brayden and Spencer

Brayden and Spencer are cuddling on their bed.

Brayden: Hun, what shall we do to celebrate for Christmas?

Spencer: Snowball fight like we used to do since high school?

Brayden: Great idea. Should we invite anyone?

Spencer: Let's invite Capri!

Brayden: What about Brynn and Cain?

Spencer: I don't think so, since they're spending time with each other.

Brayden: I see...

Brayden and Spencer went to look for Capri from the girls' cabin.

They knocked on the door before waiting for one of them to open it.

Capri: Yeah?

Brayden: Do you want to join us in a snowball fight?

Capri: Sure, I was about to go out anyway.

Capri followed Brayden and Spencer to the field that was covered in snow.

Capri: Shall we make a snow fort? We'll fight individual.

Spencer: Good idea, it'll be unfair if it's 2 vs 1.

Brayden: I agree with you two.

They started building their own snow fort out of snow.

Then they stay behind it before making a bunch of snowballs.

Capri: Are you ready?

Brayden: We're ready!

They started throwing snowballs at each other.

Capri hid behind the snow fort before she continued to throw it at them.

Spencer: Since when did you get better at this!?

Capri: I wasn't the only one who liked snowball fighting!

Spencer: (Fair enough.)

They continued to throw snowballs at each other until Brayden missed it, which lands on the picnic table that Ollie was on.

Ollie: Hm? Snow? What if I eat it?

Ollie pulls out the grape juice and an empty cup before scooping up the snow with a cup.

He pours the grape juice on it before eating.

Capri: Okay, never mind.

Spencer: Expect the unexpected.

Brayden: Yeah...

They continued the snowball fight between them while trying not to think about Ollie eating the snow like it's a snow cone.

After hours had passed by, everyone was gathered in front of their cabins.

Some of them are talking while eating the food that Beatrix, Rayna, and Pierce cooked. Some play board games to cheer themselves up, and some give each other gifts.

Bryon: Hey Pax?

Pax: Yes darling?

Bryon: I have something for you.

Bryon gives him the gift, which Pax takes with both hands before opening it.

Pax got a locket with an empty picture.

Pax: A locket...?

Bryon: When we come back to our normal world, we can add a picture of us inside of it. And you can wear it while remembering me.

Pax smiles and gives him a kiss.

Bryon was surprised and kissed him back.

Pax: Thank you for the gift, babe. Merry Christmas Bryon.

Bryon: Merry Christmas...

Pierce went behind the two before he yelled.

Pierce: ALLAHU AHKBAR!

Bryon got scared and hid behind Pax.

Pax: Come on! Can we just celebrate Christmas without you terrorizing him!?

Pierce: As if you gay ass bitches.

Pax and Bryon sat at one of the picnic tables away from Pierce.

Cain and Brynn are witnessing what just happened with Pierce scaring Bryon.

Brynn: Just ignore them.

Cain: So Bry, what are we going to do when we're back in the normal world?

Brynn: Probably live together in an apartment.

Cain: I was thinking about living a long life together with you.

Brynn: That's sweet. But are you sure? What if we meet my homophobic parents again?

Cain: Probably telling them to fuck off. You're an adult, you can't do what they say. You're not a child anymore.

Brynn: Fair enough.

Cain: It's not going to happen again. Other than that, we should celebrate it to forget them for now.

Brynn: You're right. Let's join them.

Brynn and Cain join the rest to celebrate Christmas without any worries about what's going to happen to them.
