Sunday & Gilly Broke ; keeping life simple

household;  Gilly Broke = adult

Sunday (Goth) Broke = Adult

Jim-bob Broke = child/teen

Betsey Broke = child/teen

Gilly didn’t pay much mind to the talk in the locker room at work about his wife’s two sisters, Saturday and Bell.  Even if it was true that they had both woo-hooed with Dean Caliente, who was he to judge other’s morals.  Even though Gilly was related to Sunday through marriage, some sims frowned on their union.  He hadn’t really gotten to know his step-sister or her daughters until the girls where grown and in college.

 He knew Bell was a little on the wild side, he’d once had a few intimate moments with his now sister-in-law.  That was before he married Sunday.  His wife’s twin, however, he didn’t see her as the kind of sim who would cheat.  He figured the talk was just exaggeration.

Gilly spent his days off puttering around the house.  Picking up after the twins, Jim-Bob and Betsey.   They had bought the three bedroom, two and a half bath, fully furnished house right after the twins had become children.  They had lived in a two bedroom trailer in the trailer parker on the other side of downtown.  Now they lived on a quite street right next door to Saturday and Dude.

 Gilly started giving some serious thought to a career change to politics.  He rose quickly to captain hero, reaching his life ambition.  Now he was thinking he wanted to be mayor.  He was well liked in the community and would be better then who ever was mayor now.  No one even knew who that was. 

He started searching the want ads for an opening in politics but there hadn’t been anything.

Jim-bob and Betsey where getting excited.  Their birthday was right around the corner.  Their grades in school where decent.  Betsey’s grades where better then her twin brothers. 

With Sunday working so much it was up to Gilly to throw a party for the twins.  He kept it simple, mostly family and a few friends.  The twins grew up well.  Jim-bob as a family sim and Betsey a popularity sim. 

After the party the twins went right to sleep.  Gilly went into the master bedroom to relax on the bed while he wait for Sunday to finish her shower.  She smiled when she saw him waiting for her.

“Hi stranger,” she said with a wink as she slid on the bed next to him, “how’s your week been.”

“same old same old.” He answered, “have you talked to your sisters recently?”

“No,” she sighed.

“Saturday started at the police station the other day.”

“Did she?  I’m so happy for her. I should make time to visit her, at least to see the twins.” Sunday yawned and cuddled her husband.

“Do you ever wish we had more kids?” he asked kissing her gently.

“I don’t really think about it,” she whispered, responding to his touch, “I’m happy with our family as it is, I’d be happy if we had more.”

He pulled her close and kissed her with more passion. 

In the morning they ate breakfast in the dinning room as a family for the first time since they bought the house. They all chated over their pancakes as a soft flurry of snow gently fell.

Saturday & Dude Lames : relighting the romance

household; Dude Lames = Adult

Saturday (Goth) Lames = Adult

Morty Lames = teen

Mc.Cool = elder male cat

The carpet tickled Saturday’s bare feet as she slid from her bed and headed into the small computer room off the third floor master suite.  She looked through the help wanted ads as she did every morning.  There was still no opening in law enforcement.  She let out a deep sigh.  She wasn’t happy with her acting job.  Her aspiration was to become a captian hero. 

She wondered if at this point in her life if it would be a good move.  After her indiscretion with Dean Caliente she was feeling a little low about herself.  She wandered from the computer room back through her room and finally into the bathroom.  She turned the water on in tub for a bubble bath.  When she slide into the warm water she tried to rationalize her behavior.  She was still moarning her mother’s death.  Dude had been going out a lot lately but then again so had she.  She wanted to feel young again, well, she wasn’t really that old.  Got lost in the heat of the moment, was probly the closest to the truth, but didn’t sit well with her.

On the second floor, Saturday checked Morty’s bathroom.  It was clean.  She walked into the nursry.  She had a heavy heart looking at the empty crib.  She wanted another baby.  Morty was a teen now, he wouldn’t be living at home for much longer.  As family sims, both Saturday and Dude wanted lots of children.  No matter how much they tried it was starting to feel like it would never happen.

Saturday went back to her daily morning routine, went to work, came home and made dinner.  Dude went about his normal daily routines as well.  Neither one spoke much beyond the basic important things. 

Morty was able to find time beyond his homework for other things.  He played with cat teaser with Mc.Cool regularly.  He called his friends and even invited a few lovely young girls over.  He was very into Stacie Fancey and they both seemed to like hanging out with Jaymie Phoenix.

Wanting to get her life and marriage back on track Saturday asked Dude for a date.

“I don’t feel up to going out tonight” Dude sighed.

“I wasn’t thinking that kind of date, silly,” She replyied with a sly smile.

Dude’s face lite up.  They had a good time on their little at home date that ended with them in each others’ arms in their bed.

The next morning, Saturday went about her useal routine with a spring in her step. She found an opening in law enforcement and took the job right away.  Her first day went smoothly, she was in a different unit then Dean so she didn’t see him.

She was home from work before Dude and decided to make something extra special for dinner.  They still had some fish frozen in the freezer left from their honeymoon.  Saturday  smiled to herself as she remembered their camping trip in the mountains.  How sick she had been because she had gotten pregnate with Morty.  She thought about how different things had been when they lived in the apartment.  How hot and heavy her relationship with Dude had been. 

Dude dove into the fish dinner when he got home and they talked for hours over the meal.  Morty spent the evening on the phone, he promised his mother he’d eat later.  So the couple just relaxed and enjoyed each other’s company before turning in early.

“Are you sure?” Dude asked when Saturday informed him of her big news.  The last few days they had spent so much time rediscovering the magic that seemed to have fizzled when they bought the house.

“of course I’m sure” Saturday laughed, “it not like I’ve never been pregnate before.”

Despite not having morning sickness this time around she found herself hungrier then before as well as more tired.  She seemed to only ever have the energy to go down the two flights of stairs to get something to eat then trudge back up to rest.

She reached the top of the second set, her tummy large with baby to find Mc.Cool standing by his bed meowing pitifully at her.

“What’s wrong boy?” she asked the cat.  A dark figure appeared rushing towards the cat. 

“Oh, no!” Saturday cried but it was to late.  Mc.Cool was gone. 

Saturday curled up on her bed crying.  A twinge of pain shot through her belly.  Followed by another and then another.  She was in labor.  Her cries of agony brought Dude rushing up the stairs. The first thing he saw was the little urn with his cat then he saw his wife have a baby boy.  She handed him the new born and cried out again.  Another little boy.

“Victor and Franklyn,” Morty repeated when his parents introduced him to his brothers, ”Cool names.”

They only had the nursery set up for one baby, they put Victor in there.  They converted the office next to their room into a nursery for Franklyn. 

“I think this room is to drafty for him.” Dude said when he felt Franklyn shivering in his crib.

“I don’t want to kick Morty out of his room and I don’t think it’s a good idea to have the babies in the same room, they’ll wake each other up.” Saturday replyed confused.

“well until we can come up with a better solution, I’ll move his crib to the second floor landing.  It’s very room and much warmer.” Dude said.  “I know you love the layout of the house, but I might have to build another bedroom somewhere.”

“We’ll see.”  Saturday mumbled taking Franklyn so Dude could move his crib.

Dean Calentie; counting the ladies

Household; Dean Calentie = adult

Officer Dean Calentie smiled to himself as he exited the police cruiser and headed for the door.  He liked his title and his job.  As an extra bonus, the girls loved him in his blue uniform.  He’d never actually had any kind of career ambition.  He went to college to meet girls.  He bought a small one bedroom house next door to his cousin Steve Fancey after graduating with honors.  He took the first job offered to him. Life was good and women where aplenty.

He looked in his dresser and his smile faded.  He needed new threads.  Word at the station was he was up for promotion again.  He’d be a captain hero and the blue uniform wouldn’t be around much longer.  Plus, he needed something to wear when the ladies stayed the night with him.  All the cloths he had where far from cool and mostly second hand.  He took a quick shower and called the taxi.

Commando Emporium was one of his fave spots.  They carried all his brands.  He found everything he needed for the next few seasons.  Along with everything he’d need for when he had some company on those long cold nights. 

Dean hung out for a while after getting all his new threads.  He met a beautiful witch named Ally Woodrow.  There was some so exotic to him about her deep green skin that just drew him to her.  He spent a good deal of time chatting her up and flirting with her. 

He bumped into some old college buddies.  Brandon Roseland was browsing the racks.  Jimmy Phoenix and Beau Broke where watching the game in the lounge area.  Clyde Kim was enjoying a hot dog someone grilled up. 

A pretty little townie named Calista Fuchs greeted him and he chatted with her for a while.  A not so attractive Maura Davison introduced herself.  Dean was polite to her but not that interested.

When Dean finally made his way home he was exhausted.  He flopped down on his bed and fell right to sleep.

After work the next day he invited Kitty Crazy over.  While he was waiting for her he spotted his cousin Mel Fancey walking by. 

“Hey cuz,” Dean called to Mel, “what’s up!!”

“Just stopped over Steve’s but he wasn’t in.” Mel replied.

“Ah, dude, you can hang here,” Dean smiled, “I gotta honey sliding by, but it’s all good.”

“I guess, why not.”

Dean and Mel chatted until Kitty arrived and Dean shifted his focus to her.  When Dean flirted with her Mel got mad. 

“I had a fling with him once.” Kitty whispered to Dean.

“Hey, Mel,” Dean walked over to his cousin, “I don’t want to seem like a..Well, you know, but hey, she’s a romance lady and I’m a romance kinda guy.  Get my drift.”

Mel nodded and with an angry huff he left.

“So about that date we never got to fully finish at your place.” Dean smiled at Kitty pulling her close for a kiss before guiding her to his room.

He woo – hooed with Kitty.

The next night, he seduced Bell Goth and woo-hooed with her.

The night after that, he impressed himself by getting Saturday Lames to woo-hoo with him.

He got his promotion to captain hero without working up his skills. 

Dean looked through is little phone book, trying to pick out his next conquests. His asperation in life was to woo-hoo with 20 sims, he had 15 left to go.  He picked out a couple of townie girls he had high chemistry with.  He glanced at Dianna Phoenix’s number.  He thought about calling her, but there was something different about her then other girls.  He flipped the page and called a few other babes.  Whatever it was about Dianna could wait. 

Steve Fancey; the start of a rock start

Household; Steve Fancey = Adult

The phone rang.

Steve turned the faucet on and washed the plate he’d left out the night before.

The phone rang again.

With a heavy sigh he pushed his hair out of his eyes.

The phone kept ringing.

He didn’t want to answer the phone.  He knew it was one of his two youngest siblings.  Either Sam wanting to brag about what he’s been doing or Stacie wanting to ask him a million questions.

The phone was relentless with its ringing.

He walked slowly over to answer it.

“Why is Sam so clueless?” Stacie demand at the sound of Steve’s voice.

“What happened?”  Steve sighed, and prepared himself for the 2 hour rant by his youngest sister.

Steve was the second eldest of the five Fancey kids.  Mel was the oldest, then Steve, Lizzy, Sam and Stacie.  Mel and Lizzy where both fortune sims.  Steve and Sam where both romance sims.  Stacie was a knowledge sim and she was curious about everything.  When ever she wanted to know about love or romance or like today, understand Sam, she called Steve. 

Steve and Sam had a lot in common.  They both liked to clean, they both wanted to be rock gods, and they both liked beautiful women.  There where also differences between the two as well.  Sam was more into himself and a little on the reckless side. 

Steve was more focused.  He wasn’t as compulsive as his brother.  Steve had a very mellow laid back way. 

When Steve finally got off the phone with his little sister he had to get to work.  he worked from 2 to 8 pm.  He’d been having parties after work, but the cops broke them up before they really got started.  His work schedule was putting a cramp in his social life. 

Steve wasn’t too worried; he had a few female friends who he could call by for a little sleepover party of their own. 

Kitty Crazy was more then willing to stop by and hang out with Steve.  Unlike his cousin, Dean, Steve didn’t have a goal for the number of ladies he wanted to keep company.

“I’m all about quality,” Steve had once told his cousin.

Steve fixed a light dinner for him and Kitty.  They talked, flirted and played before relaxing in his room.  In the morning, Steve fixed cereal for them then back to the bedroom. 

Kitty hung out until after Steve went to work.  Steve came home with a promotion from battle of the bands judge to roady. Steve was excited to be moving up in the music field so fast.  He changed his hairstyle.  Pushing his hair out of his face.  Wearing long layers to his sholdiers.   He also got himself the battle axe guitar.  He went right to practicing in hopes of moving up faster.

Mellow and Dan Crazy; one more time around

household: Dan Crazy = adult

Mellow (Lames) Crazy = Adult

Mellow put the finishing touches on her painting of Dan serving food and hung it in their bedroom.  Life was falling into a simple rhythm for them since Kitten had left for college. They had tried to have another baby while Kitten was growing up.  It had just never happened.  When Kitten left for college they decided not worry about it anymore.  The money they had saved up for a bigger house they spend on nicer furniture. They where both making good money getting close to the top of their professions.  Dan worked for the paper and she was working at one of the hot architecture firms. 

Just as they were settling into their new life of just the two of them, Mellow became pregnant.  Dan was instantly overjoyed.  He’d missed so much when Kitten had been born. 

Dan had been in college when he’d met Mellow.  She was new to Pleasantview.  Her and her brother, Dude Lames, where the first sims to actually live in the Downtown district.  They shared an apartment in one of the newly built apartment buildings.  Mellow stayed with her brother all thru her pregnancy with Kitten and even after she was born.

It was a small two bedroom apartment.  Mellow had the baby’s crib in her room with her and the changing table in the living area.  There where days the apartment felt crowded.  Dude wanted to raise 20 pets, and he had a cat, McCool. 

When Kitten became a toddler walking through the apartment was somewhat of a challenge navigating around baby’s and cat’s toys.  As soon as Kitten grew into a child, Mellow decided to buy a small house.  A few days later Dan finished college and moved in with them.  They had a small wedding in their back yard. 

Money had been tight while Kitten was growing up.  Dan and Mellow saved every spare simolean with the hopes of having another baby and buying a bigger house.  Now Kitten was in college and the couple was making good money.  Mellow decided instead of a new house she’d just design a second floor; after all she worked at a prestigious architect firm.

They built a second floor with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a balcony off the master bedroom.  They left the downstairs room intact.  They turned the old master bedroom into a living room.  They kept the downstairs bathroom as a bathroom.  Mellow put her drafting table in Kitten’s old bedroom.

Mellow’s pregnatecy flew by.  It was a smooth and easy pregnancy.  Dan was home when the time came for the baby’s birth.  Everything went well and she gave birth to a baby girl. 

“Daisy?” Mellow suggested looking from her new infant to her husband.

“Daisy.”  Dan smiled.  “I like it.”

Mellow stayed home with Daisy, only going to work when Dan was home.  Dan spent every chance he could with his youngest daughter. 

“So, I was thinking,” Mellow started over dinner one night, “Maybe when Daisy is a child we could buy a vacation home.”

“We could finally have a honeymoon.” Dan smiled.

“or a family get a ways.”  Mellow grinned.

“Maybe a place to someday take grandchildren.”  Dan suggested enthusiastically.

“On the beach or at least near the ocean?”

“I could build a sandcastle that you design.”

They both laughed. 

Sam Fancey : caught up in his own world.

household; Sam Fancey = adult

Sam bought a small two story house around the corner from Claire Kim in downtown Pleasantview.  He wanted to be close to his child.  He set about remodling the house.  There where two bedrooms upstairs but the bathroom was down stairs.  That needed to be changed.  It took a lot of planning and replanning to get two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs.  The second bedroom was a bit small but he figured his child wouldn’t stay the night very often and wouldn’t need much.

He’d hardly settled in when Claire gave him the news.  A baby girl named Samantha.  When he fed his little girl a bottle he looked around Claire’s house.  She’d done a good job remodling and making room for their child.  He noticed she had yet to get a high chair.  He knew he had one in storage and figured he’d never have a reason to use it.  When he returned home he got the high chair and did some more shopping.  He decorated the spare bedroom in reds and pinks for Samantha and put some play ground equipment out back for her.  Just a slide and some monkey bars in white.  Then he bought an entire play ground set in lavender to give to Claire.

He called his parents to tell them about the birth of his little girl and mom offered to be the one to tell Mel.  Sam called his brother Steve and told him as well as ask if there was any openings where he worked.  Steve worked in the music carreer and shared the same life aspiration to become a rock god.

“I was lucky to find my job,” Steve said, “Just keep looking on the computer, something’s bound to break, but if I hear anything I’ll call you.”

“cool, thanks,” Sam said to his older brother.

“I gotta get to work, congrads again on the little girl.” Steve said before hanging up.

No sooner had Sam hung up with his brother, and the phone rang. 

“I’m getting some friends together to celebrate my new neice,” Snow Kim’s voice came through the receiver. “wanna go celebrate your baby girl?”

The cab dropped the group of at Crypto’s Night Club.  Snow had invited along a bunch of her friends; Beau Broke, Bell Goth, Dan Crazy, Sydney Roseland and of course the new mom, Claire Kim.  The group ran into Angela Pheonix who had stopped in for a bite to eat.  A little while later Dude Lames also showed up.  Sam tried his hand at working as a DJ and noticed Bell slap Sydney.  He wondered who or what that was all about.  He also couldn’t keep his eyes off Claire.  As she danced with her sister Snow he noticed Claire was looking good for someone who had just had a baby.  With a sly smile he let the house DJ take back over. 

“come with me.” He whispered to Claire and led her to the photo booth.  It didn’t take long til they had the thing rocking so hard sparks where flying from it like fire works. When they emerged from the photo booth without photos they were greeted with mixed responses.  Most people were cheering but Bell gave him a hard slap.  Dan also had a slap for Claire.

“I’ve been getting slapped a lot recently,” Claire sighed looking at Sam.

“Maybe this will cheer you up.”  Sam said handing her a gift.  “just a few things for Samantha.”

Claire smiled and tucked it away.

Sam played the night back in his head on the cab ride home.  He smiled about his moment of bliss with Claire.  He also pondered the cause of the rift between Bell and Sydney that had them slapping each other all night until eventully a fight broke out between them bringing the outing to an end.

The next day Sam hung out at home.  He had a lot of cleaning to do.  When he took the trash out he noticed Angela Phoenix walking by.  He struck up a conversation with her.  They talked for close to two hours out front his house.

“wanna have a date?” He asked her with a wink.

Angela jumped back and waved her hands at him, “Oh, no, I’m a married woman!”

“how about just having lunch?” he laughed.

“that I can do.”  She said and followed him into the house.

“Wow! Who’s your maid?” Angela asked looking around.

Sam Paused by the fridge. “Why, something worng?”

“ah, why no,” Angela giggled, “I didn’t think a single guy would have such a clean house.  I’m forever picking up after Jimmy and the girls.”

Angela hung out with Sam the rest of the day talking about different cleaning tips.

After she left he went through the house checking to see if anything had gotten dirty then called the taxi.

He went to Cold Issue Clothing and picked up some new cloths.  He ran into Alexander Goth and struck up a conversation.  Alexander didn’t seem to have much to say other then Gina and the twins were fine.  Thanks for your condolence for Cassandra, and a quick congradulations on the baby girl.

As Alexander walked away heading for the door, Sam thought he heard him mumble something about “womanizer” and “cad”.

Spotting a group of people by the changing room Sam wandered over to see what was going on.  He found Claire and his brother, Steve playing kicky bag with some townies.  Sam hung back and cheered them on for a bit.  He wanted to watch longer but he was getting hungry and tired.  Plus he didn’t know if Claire and Steve were on a date or not.  Steve was also a romance sim.  Sam didn’t want to interfere on their night, just incase, so he headed home.

Climbing from the cab Sam saw something that sent chills through him.  Alexander Goth was kicking over his trash.  Garbage lay every where.   Sam was stunned.  How could anyone want to delebratly make such a mess.    Sam decided to prevent anyone from doing that again. he would just compost his trash in the yard.  He bought a composter and cleaned the garbage up leaving the empty can laying on the ground.  He grabbed a plate of leftovers before going to bed. 

After work the next day he realized he hadn’t seen his sisters much and decided to have them and some of their friends over for a small house party.  He invited Dan and Mellow Crazy, Dude Lames, Heart and Bobbie Happiness and Justin Kim.  Both his sisters, Lizzy and Stacie came.  Apparently he needed to spend more time getting to know them.  Justin Kim jumped into Lizzy’s arms causeing a big ruckase.  Heart slapped Justin.  Bobbie slapped Lizzy but Lizzy wasn’t going to stand for that and she slapped him back.  Sam quickly served a meal and the food seemed to distract everyone except for Dude, who spent the entire party in Sam’s room on the computer.

After everyone left, Sam cleaned up.  As he was scrubbing the counter the phone rang. 

“Next time, ask us who our friends are,” Stacie scolded over the phone.  “Don’t you ever pay attention to what’s happening in your own family?”

“Well..I..I don’t understand…” Sam mumbled into the phone.

“You’re so clueless,” Stacy sighed.  She explained what had happened as a result of Lizzy dating Bobbie.  Sam found himself repeating a lot of, “Oh, wow” and “I didn’t realize” along with a few, “I’m sorry”.
