"What are your plans for thanksgiving?" Joe asked me as we exited S.T.A.R Labs. We were branching off for the day and doing our own things.
"I can think of something," Barry mumbled with a smirk. I slapped his chest and proceeded to talk with Joe.
"Remember the talk we had? I don't need to know about any of the canoodling you-" Joe said before I cut him off.
"To get back on track, we don't know yet. Probably have a little something at our place."
"You're more than welcome to have it with us. You can even invite your friends from S.T.A.R Labs."
"How about we have it at our house? You can make whatever dishes you want, and bring them over. I'll cook some dishes, and everyone else can bring over an appetizer. You always host the holidays."
"Sounds good....What time should we be over?" Joe asked.
"Anytime after 3. My stove unfortunately wasn't granted with super speed, so the cooking will take a while."
"Funny.." Joe said sarcastically. "See you later. I'll text everyone else and let them know," Joe said before saying goodbye and getting into his car. Barry and I waved before we were off.
When we got home, I threw on my apron and began getting all the ingredients. I got all the pots and pans I needed, along with all the utensils.
"Cranberry sauce is canned......Corn is canned......Joe's bringing over green bean casserole......Caitlin is bringing over pie....Cisco is bringing corn bread.....Wally is bringing rolls.....Iris is bringing dessert.....That leaves me with potatoes, turkey, stuffing, and gravy..." I said to myself.
"That's a lot," Barry said before I got to work. I walked over to my pantry and looked through all the food I had. As luck would have it, I had cranberry sauce, corn, and gravy.
"I have three out of the six items. Can you run to the store and get-" I said before Barry sped off. He came back with grocery bags.
"Turkey, stuffing mix, and potatoes," Barry said handing me the bag. "Don't think I wasn't listening. I listened to that whole talk you gave yourself about what brands are the best."
"Thank you," I said walking up to him and placing a kiss on his lips.
I turned back around and got back to cooking. Since the turkey takes the longest, I got that prepared and in the oven. I then skinned and mashed the potatoes. I sprinkled them with seasoning and cheese before placing them in the oven. For stuffing, I used Stove Top because everyone loves it. I followed the instructions it gave, and set that aside when it was done. I watched closely on the potatoes, and took them out when they were done.
I checked the turkey before going off and tidying up. Barry made sure everything was all set with games and activities, and I brought up some extra chairs from our basement.
When everything was all set, we had an hour before everyone was arriving, and 8 minutes on the turkey.
"That apron makes you look so sexy," Barry said across the kitchen.
"Does it?" I asked. He nodded, and I walked closer to him. He was sitting on the counter, and I stood inbetween his legs. "What are you gonna do about it?" I asked.
"This...." He said before bringing his face closer to mine and kissing me. I kissed back, and we had a heated make out session before the oven went off.
"I gotta go...." I said to Barry as I tried pulling away. I was now ontop of the counter, and Barry resisted.
"That's what you said the first time it went off..." Barry said, still giving me kisses.
"First time?" I asked before pushing Barry away from me and rushing to the oven. I opened the oven to see our turkey was burnt to a crisp.
"The turkey's burnt!" I exclaimed. "What are we gonna do....We only have 15 minutes before-" I said before I was interrupted by our doorbell. I walked to the door as Barry sped the bad turkey outside. I answered the door to see Joe standing there. He had his dish in his hand, and I let him in.
"What are you doing here?" I asked as he placed his dish on the counter.
"You know me, I wanted to come early. Do you need help with anything............What's that smell?" Joe asked as Barry came in from the back door.
"Nothing....." I tried to cover.
"I know you.....What really happened?" Joe asked.
"The turkey......" I said with my head down. "It was going great until Barry-" I said before Joe cut me off.
"I don't wanna know......I made one just in case," Joe said tossing Barry the keys to his car. Barry sped to Joe's car and got the extra turkey.
Barry placed it on the table and joined my side, as I greeted our new guests who had arrived. They put their dishes they had brought on the counter, and we eventually played a game of "Would You Rather" before sitting down to eat.
"Thank you everyone for coming! And thank you for bringing dishes.........Especially Joe, because we'd be doomed if he didn't."
"What are you talking about?" Caitlin asked.
"Our turkey got a little scorched. I was a little.......distracted.......in the kitchen," I said looking at Barry.
"Canoodling....." Cisco whispered in Iris' ear. She nodded and I gave a glance in their direction. They both sank in their chairs a little, and we proceeded with our meal.
We talked a lot about what we were thankful for and talked about memories over this year.
When we were done eating, the boys sat down to watch football, and the girls sat at the table and talked. Occasionally, we would munch on one of the desserts Iris brought.
When it was getting late, or guests started to leave. First Wally, Iris, and Joe.....and eventually, Caitlin and Cisco left. I sped around and cleaned up before joining Barry on the couch.
"How do you think it went?" I asked Barry.
"Good.....minus the turkey.....Other than that, it was great!" said Barry.
"The turkey was your fault....You were distracting me....." I replied.
"Sorry......You're just so irresistible," Barry said, placing his hand on mine.
"I'm not gonna get sucked in this time," I said walking away to our bedroom. I sat down on the bed in thought for a few minutes.
Breaking me out of my thoughts, Barry came in the room and stood in the doorway.
"Hot damn...You're cute!....." Barry exclaimed. He was trying to make a face to go along with his comment, but it wasn't working well for him.
"Your face looks like you just sucked on a lemon, and your comment sounds like if a fifth grader were trying to flirt. But, it's working," I said walking up to him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him passionately. I was once again, sucked in. This time, harder than before.
