"Did you get a plate, babe?" Scott asks, sitting next to Mark.

"Mhm," Mark motions to his plate. "Connie makes a great meal. I can't wait."

Scott kisses Mark's temple, and Mark grabs his hand under the table.

"Uncle Scott! Look how much Mac n' Cheese I got!" Landon exclaims, and Scott laughs.

"Did you leave any room for turkey on that plate?" Scott asks, and Landon shrugs.

Mark laughs at that, and then everyone starts to eat.

The meal takes about an hour, and after they eat, the kids go to the coloring table, and the adults chitchat.

Scott and Mark head over to the kids table, check out what everyone's coloring.

"What'cha coloring, Beckham?" Scott kneels down to the little boy's level.

"A spaceship," Beckham says. "Do you like it?"

"Lemme see," Scott takes the picture, and looks at it. "It's awesome! But you know what it's missing?"

"What?"

"An astronaut. Who do you think you should draw to be your astronaut?"

Beckham thinks for a moment. "Uncle Mark!"

Mark grins widely at that. "I'm so honored," he jokes.

Beckham gets to work on drawing Mark, and then Scott and Mark head back to the adults table.

"Did you have fun today?" Scott asks. "I know my family can be a lot,"

"I had a great time, baby. This is my 4th thanksgiving with you, I promise I'm used to it by now."

Scott leans in for a quick kiss. "Okay. I know the first year you said you didn't feel like you fit in. How about now?"

Mark smiles at Scott. "I feel like I was born into your family," he says. "I mean it. I don't know if you caught it, but earlier, Beckham called me Uncle Mark."

"I thought I heard that," Scott says. "Made me happy."

"I almost cried," Mark laughs. "It made me so happy that he thought I was a part of the family."

"You are a part of the family," Scott says. "Someday, I'll marry you, and it'll make it official."

Mark grabs Scott's hand. "You mean the world to me."

Scott kisses Mark's forehead. "You mean more than that to me."

They cuddle closer in Scott's childhood bed, and drift off to sleep.
