The Not So Small Family

20

Emily walked down the stairs with JJ on her back. "Will you quit moving I'm going to fall" Emily said trying her best to look at JJ

"I'm sorry. I have a song stuck in my head" JJ said not stoping her movements

"Heyy" JJ said as she saw her family. Emily flinched when she did as JJ's mouth was right next to her ear. When JJ talked again she made sure to cover that ear

"What're you doing?" JJ asked swaying back and forth

"It's Thanksgiving"  someone said

"Really? I thought it was St. Patrick's day" JJ hopped off of Emily's back
"I'm starting to sound like you now" JJ said with bit of disgust

"Sounding like me isn't that bad" Emily said waving her finger around

"Yes it is"

"Ok I'm going to pretend you didn't say that"

"Well you know I'm right"

"Whatever"

"Ha! Suck on that!" JJ said as she thrusted her hips. "Oh god I really have to stop hanging out with you"

Emily just laughed at JJ's disappointment. "Peace" she said throwing up the peace sign. "Damnit!"

As JJ started walking up Emily slid on her socks over to her and put an arm around her shoulder "You know you love me" she sung.

"I may love you but that doesn't mean I love your ways"

"Then your missing out big time"

"Have you seen your self try to use a toaster?"

"Look I may not be able to use a toaster but I do in fact know how to make a seven course meal"

"You somehow catch the toaster on fire every. Single. Time."

Emily scoffed "No I don't"

"Name one time you haven't"

Emily stayed quiet

"Exactly. All you have to do is put a piece of bread in and push down the knob thingy. That's it there's nothing else to it and yet the toaster catches on fire everytime"

"Toasters don't like me ok!?! There's nothing I can do about it"

"Learn to cook"

"I know how to cook a seven course meal"

"Then learn to use a damn toaster"

"It lights on fire with anger everytime I look at it just like my mother"

"Toasters don't have feelings"

"Neither does my mother but here we are"

"No your mother only has feelings of hatred and resentment"

"That's so true but still they both don't have any other feelings"

"You know maybe we shouldn't talk about your mother on a day where your supposed to be with our friends and family and give thanks as well as have a good time"

"That woman doesn't even have to be here to be a bitch and ruin everything"

"I'm just glad we haven't seen her in a while"

"Me too. I think that's the thing I'm most thankful for, to not have my mother near me and we haven't seen her in a while. Y'know today is a great day to be thankful"

JJ laughed as she sat down on the couch. She suddenly got an idea so she left telling Emily she needed to use the bathroom

She got Henry and went up to their room. She got Henry, Emily, and herself matching outfits. JJ had dark jeans with a black tube top and a red flannel over it. Henry was also wearing dark jeans but had a black v neck and a red flannel tied around his small waist.
