I Love You

Turkey Dinners

Disclaimer: I only own Darcy, all other characters unless otherwise noted belong to someone else.

Darcy stood at the counter and stared at her turkey. With her dad not coming her original plan was to go where ever Nate was going but with them on a sort of break she decided that she would stick to tradition but here was this bird that was way more than what she could eat. She started thinking about last year and just how drunk she was then. She took her apron off and set it to the side. Her phone rang and she quickly looked at it. She was only answering for two people. Chuck and her dad. Luckily it was her dad. Who she hadn't told yet.

"Hey" she said.

"Hey sweetheart what's wrong?"

"He um...he said those words."

"The words?"

"Yes dad that 4 letter word that for some reason won't escape my mouth."

"Oh"

"Dad!" she began crying.

"Oh sweetheart don't cry."

"I've been avoiding him."

"Darc honey, you need to talk to him. I know today probably isn't the best with the history but you need to. I know you care about the boy and I'm sure he will understand why you can't say it back."

"I know."
"But sweetheart, if you can't say because of your mom that's one thing, but if you can't say it because you don't feel it back then you need to break up with him. For your friendship. You two had such an amazing friendship and I don't want to see that end."

"Did Bass call you?"

"Smart kid if he gave you the same advice."

"Thank you Dad. I miss you."

"I miss you too and I am going to try and be there by the end of the week. I moved some things around to do so. I love you."

"You too."

"Bye sweetheart" he said and they hung up. She looked at the turkey meat she had pulled and put it all away and into the fridge. She looked at her phone and texted Jenny.

J: Yeah come. Dad and Lily would love it

*Nate and Dan*

Nate walked around the place on the phone with Dan. He was trying to distract himself from Darcy. He wasn't expecting the answer he got.

"I told you it would end badly. Threesomes, man. Don't believe the hype" Nate said.

"Yeah but here's the thing. Olivia said she was leaving because she thought I had feelings for Vanessa."

"Do you?"

"How...how would I even know?"

"How did Olivia know?"

"Well, she said she saw a look on my face."

"You mean during?" Nate asked "Oh if this is not your next story for "The New Yorker" I'm sending it out to an entirely different magazine."

"Oh thank you, that really helps."

"Relax, chances are you're right. It's just the threesome talking."

"Yes, say that this is just a phase. So you and Darcy have any Thanksgiving plans."

"Actually no. I'm going through some things, so I'm gonna go..."

"You and Darcy okay?"

"We were, then I told her I loved her."

"Usually that's a good thing."
