"Justin. Ariana. Wake up! Its Thanksgiving!" Jaxon and Jazmyn jump on the bed, forcing us to wake up.

"Its 6 am. What can you possibly do in the morning on Thanksgiving?" Justin says into his pillow.

"Eat breakfast. Duh! Mommy said be downstairs in 30 minutes. And be dressed because were going to a Thanksgiving party at her office."

"She couldn't have told us this last night? What time is this party supposed to start anyway?" Justin sighs.

"8 am." Jazmyn says, closing the door behind her.

"Is this how they are on Christmas?" I say, sitting up.

"You have no idea, Ariana. They will wake you up at 5 am and give you a minute to be downstairs before they start screaming."

"Hey, that's what I did. But I started getting in trouble when I turned 9." Justin laughs and we get out of bed.

25 minutes later, we're all downstairs eating breakfast.

"When will you two be heading back to Florida?"

"On Wednesday. We're leaving at 3 am."

"Wait, what?" I say.

"I may have forgotten to tell you we're leaving the house at 3 in the morning. The plane leaves at 5." Justin replies.

"That's so early." Jaxon says.

"I know, buddy." I can't help but smile at Justin's nickname for him.

"Let's finish eating. We need to be there by 7:30 am." We finish eating in silence, putting dishes in the dishwasher when we're done.

"Is everyone ready to go?" Pattie says, anxious to be early.

We nod and go outside, getting in the Escalade. Austin drives to her office where people are just beginning to arrive.

"Great. We're on time." Pattie says, grabbing her purse.

I pick up Jaxon and walk inside with Justin and Jazmyn next to me.

"Kids, stop." Austin whispers from behind us.

We turn around as Pattie walks by us, tapping an imaginary watch.

"Behave. Pattie's job is on the line if you're not good. Understand?" We all nod and turn back around.

Austin walks in front of is, leaving us alone.

"What are we supposed to do?" Jazmyn says.

"Good question. Let's just walk around. I'm sure some people will recognize us." Justin says, taking my hand.

"I can't hold your hand and Jaxon at the same time."

"Well put him down."

"But he's adorable. I can't." He rolls his eyes, putting his arm around my waist.

"There are teenage boys here, Ariana. I have to let them know that you're mine." Justin whispers in my ear.

I smile as we walk further into the building. People stare at us as we walk around. Either they're staring because our parents are famous or because they think Jazzy and Jaxon are our kids and we look to young to be parents, especially with another kid on the way.

We see Pattie talking to someone and she waves us over. Finally with something to do, we walk over to her.

"Kids, this is my boss, Brookline. She's Skyler's mom. Brookline, this is my daughter, Jazmyn, and my 2 sons, Jaxon and Justin. This is Justin's girlfriend, Ariana. She's visiting for Thanksgiving." I fight the urge to say something, anything, as Brookline smiles.
