When they returned to the apartment 15 minutes later, they were greeted with more amazing scents from the kitchen, and Shaggy sitting bare foot on the Ebony and Cherry wood dinning table. Talking to Winter.
o who what kind of cheese did you use this time?" He asked, he definitely looked different, instead of brown slacks he had on crisp looking blue jeans and an untucked button up shirt in his signature green, his hair was combed back and his goatee looked trimmed. They all noticed how different he looked, more mature, less awkward maybe?

"Um Brie, Gorgonzola, Asiago, Feta, Gouda, and last but not least Muenster." She said, blinds once again open. "When did Mom and Brice say they were going to be here?"

"Umm 8:30, so we should be seeing them ad 8:d 8:45ish. Want me to go and wake them?" He asked getting up.

"Yeah go for it. Make sure Aerin washed her hands please."

"Is she still trying to convince you that Scoob licking them is like equivalent to soap and water?"

"Yep, and I wonder who she got that from," She said pointedly then looked up from her stirring and saw the three of them watching them. "Hey! You’re back; you can toss your stuff in the living room."

Shaggy turned around and smiled at them, "Hey, you guys got like 10 to wash up before we chow down." He said jumping off the table.

"Thanks where’s the bathroom?" Daphne asked picking up her toiletries bag.

"Oh ah right through the door next to the steps." He said pointing to a 3-d painting next to the steps and before the hallway.

"Shaggy I don’t see a door."ma sma said feeling a little silly.

"Oh my bad!" Shaggy said walking over to it he grabbed one of the many handles sticking out of it and turned and pulled, showing them the painting had a door hidden in it. "Don’t worry I even forget that it’s there sometimes and we’ve been here like almost five years." He said before going up the steps.

Inside was done in blue veined marble and a few retro looking orange flower shaped holders and floor mats with bohemian looking curtains on the windows and around the claw foot cooper bath, the separate shower was designed so none of the water would run out nor was a curtain needed. They all shook their heads and took quick turns freshening up, just as they had finished and were walking out they nearly collided with a tall(not a tall as shaggy) middle-aged man and woman with an eight year old between them, who looked like a mix of Winter and Una.

"Sorry!" Velma said adjusting her glasses anokinoking at them. The man had steel-blue eyes with many laugh lines around them and a blond mustache that had MANY white hairs in it. His head was clearly shaven bald and he wore a simple red polo shirt and faded blue jeans, in his hand where two HUGE over night bags. His broad shoulders easily beared the weight of them. The woman on the other hand was two inches shorter than Winter and pure Hopi, her black hair was trying to grow a white streak at her temples, and she was a little bit on the cuddly side.

"Oh it’s fine, we didn’t see you coming out of the bathroom." Said the woman smiling, it was clear who Winter looked like, in fact the resemblance between her and Winter was almost shocking. "You must be Shaggy’s friends from Mystery Inc."

They nodded their heads and just stood back as Aerin came zooming down the steps. "Granma!!!! Grandpa Bear!!!" She screamed hugging ‘Grandpa Bear’s’ legs before going to the girl between them. "Wanna go play now?"
She nodded and they were both about to run off just when.

"DINNER!" Winter yelled from the Kitchen, she saw her parents and smiled. "Hey Mom, Hey Brice, how was the drive from the airport?"

"Fine but the stewards were so rude!" Her mother said as she tossed her coat over the arm of the couch. Shaggy came from upstairs and saw them and started grinning.

"Mom, Brice. Great to see you guys!" He said as he walked up to everyone, when the gang saw what he had in his arms. "Look who woke up in time for dinner." He said holding up the two-month-old, who had on a blue jumper with a tiny puppy patch on the front.

"Oh there’s my Grandson!!!" Brice said holding his arms out for the baby, whShagShaggy happily handed over. "Look he knows his Grandpa Bear!" He said in his deep baritone.

"Brice, could you hand him over to somebody so you and Shaggy can pull apart the table and put in the extra leaf." Sol said coming over to them and gave them both a huge hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"Yeah" "Sure." They said at the same time as they pulled the heavy table apart and placed the leaf in, and readjusted the chairs.

"Hey guys you want to help with the table?" Winter asked Fred, Velma and Daphne, they all nodded blankly at the slight chaos that surrounded them. "Great, the silverware is in the drawer next to the fridge, just grab a knife and fork enough for everyone." She quickly took her small son and held him as she went to the stove and adjusted the heat on some of the pots. Fred grabbed some napkins and set them nd tnd the table, Daphne set out forks and knives while Velma set out spoons. "Ok you people food!!!!" She yelled from the kitchen.

"Dinner time!" Aerin yelled sitting at one of the chairs with a booster. "Daddy can I sit with Granma and Grampa Bear?"

"Sure, but you gotta like ask them first." He said winking at his in-laws, as they pretended to think over the matter as if it were difficult before sitting down next to their granddaughter. After some shifting and rearranging the table ended up like this going clock-wise; Shaggy at the head of the table, a space for Winter, Una, Mom, Aerin, Brice (opposite Shaggy), Daphne, Fred, Ian, then Velma next to Shaggy. "Soooo what do we got tonight?" He asked as Winter set a small saucer with a pink and white mound on each of them with a sprinkling of walnut on them.

"First we got Tuna Tartare with Verjus with a glass of just released Louis Jadot Beaujolais-Villages." She said sitting down taking a bite of hers. "So how was work?" She said, leaning back in her chair very casually as if they were just eating pizza and French fries.

"Great, I like got that article finished and it’s on its way to the editor tonight, it should make this months run." Shaggy said clearing the small plate, he sipped the wine carefully and admired the colour. "That was nice..." He said looking at her with a smile.

"Yeah I was surprised sis, I normally don’t like walnuts, but it sets off the raw tuna very nicely." Una said as she sipped her wine. "I like the wine too, what year is it?"

Winter was about to answer when Shaggy cut in, she stuck her tongue out at him playfully then smiled.

"Actually if memory like serves me right any Beaujolais-Villages, is best new and not aged, oh and like you should get a bite of everything when you take a sip." He took another sip and grinned close lipped. "This is very nice with peppery arugula es aes and nice nutty walnuts." He said with a nod, then added in an after thought. "I was surprised by the orange zest.

"Was it too much?" She asked seriously.

"I don’t think so." Shaggy said shaking his head.

"I liked the orange; it balanced well with oli olive oil and tanginess of the wine." Brice said taking the rest of Una’s, who had handed him both the half-empty glass and plate.emmeemme guess your going out tonight?" She nodded then started putting emp empty plates in a pile and helping Winter with the dishes. "No more drinking then!" He said, the teen just waved at him from the kitchen, her back to him so he couldn't see the eye roll.

"Winter why, don’t you let me have him." Her mother said holding her arms out for her grandson, taking him happily.

"Ok guys; next are the Beef Wellington with six cheese macaroni and cheese, and a glass of Sercial Madeira." She said
handing out their portions of the pastry-covered beef.

"Mommy." Aerin said from between her grand parents.

"Hmm?" She responded her mouthful of food.

"Did you put Muenster in the Mac-&-Cheese?" She said looking at it funny.

"Of course I did." She said as she watched the side dish suddenly vanish from the child's plate.

"Can I have some more?" She said holding out her plate.

"You haven't touched the meat yet..."

"Finish your milk first then you can have some more, but you have to eat the rest then too. Ok?" Shaggy said getting up. He leaned over the counter and put another serving on his daughter’s plate. "Promise?"

"I promise. Can Catori and me go watch a movie after dinner?" Aerin asked as she ate her beef and Mac-&-cheese.
All the adults looked at one another and gave non-verbal consent. "Sure why not, everyone is spending the night, right?" Everyone at the table nodded as the two girls hurried and ate their dinner.

"Hey slow down girls." Brice said laughing.

"Finished!" Yelled Catori getting up on the table and setting her plate and empty glass of milk on the counter then bolting up the steps.

"Done!" Aerin said doing the same.

"What about desert!?" Granma yelled after them.

"Later!" They yelled.

"You certainly have a full house tonight." Velma said, coming out of her private conversation with Ian.

"I noticed too, is it always like this?" Daphne asked sipping her glass of Madeira. Fred was on his second serving of Wellin.
.

"Nah," Shaggy said leaning back having eaten three servings. "Mom and Brice fly in every month or two. Una lives with us, she goes to Pratt for morning classes, and then it’s the kids and us." He smiled pouring himself a half glass and passing the bottle of Madeira.

"Oh though sometimes we have other friends that stay for a night or two." Winter said thoughtfully. "But we never know when THEY’LL show up." Suddenly lil' Shaggy started crying loudly. "Oh looks like somebody's hungry." She looked at the new guests.
"Mind if I feed him at the table?" She asked they all shrugged and shook their heads. "Great some people wig out if I feed him in front of them." She took the small baby from Shaggy who grabbed a blanket off the unused high chair in the corner and held it up for her as she unbutton the front of her shirt and set the baby up. "Ok..." She said, then he laid the blanket across her chest so she and the baby were covered.

Shaggy looked down at his watch and grinned "You know in 48 hours we’ll be in Time’s Square for New Years Eve?" He said looking at Winter. She grinned and than sat up.

"You know what? I Think I might be able to get us into the MTV studio for the night. Are yall up for it?" Winter asked smiling.

"Wait, wait, wait..." Shaggy said leaning over the table looking at her, "I thought you said Carson wasn’t coming through."

"I did, BUT, Sandie did!" Winter said victorious, "But I have to do a party for her in return." She said with a shrug

"Makes sense the tickets run about $25 to $50 a head, plus they’re sold out. But why a full party?" Shaggy asked scratching his head.

"Yeah, if all of you go it would be $250 for all five." Her mother said wondering what else there was. "At most you owe her a side dish or two."

"Well I wanted it to be a surprise..." The cook said with an impish smile.

"What?" Shaggy, Brice, Velma, Daphne, Fred, and her mother exclaimed.

"She got me a BOX at Cirque Du Soleil." Winter said with an grin.

"How many seats is that?" Daphne asked shocked.

"About ten or fithteen,"

"Oh my God." Daphne said with a gasp.

"Yeah, AND dinner, desert and drinks are on the house."

"Gad, you don’t owe her a party you owe her several of them!" Una said mouth agape.

"Not quite, but she won’t take more than one free one..." Winsaidsaid "I think she figures this is payback for me bailing her ass out in college."

"Huh?" Fred ask undelicately.

"Oh I warned her not to date anyone who worked in finachial aid, but she didn't listen to me, so I had to help make payments on a semester or two. I personally think she's more than paid me off, but well some people ya know..." She said with a shrug.

Velma was about to bring up the legal action her friend could have taken up when the door bell rang......
