Thank you for reviewing

Today is Thanksgiving, I am a little bummed because the last two Thanksgivings Aaron and I would be together. His family always ate at 2, so we would go there. Then my family would eat at 5, so we would come back to my house to eat a little more. I would always want him to stay longer after dinner, but he never would. He would always go out with his friends after. Now that I think of it, why did I ever date him?

After getting dressed, I go into the kitchen to see if my mom needs help with the cooking. It smells amazing and the windows are open so we can feel the fall air flowing in. It's absolutely beautiful.

"Need any help mom?" I love helping out on Thanksgiving. There is so much cooking to be done and I love cooking.

She hands me a stack of plates. "Yes, go set the table."

Then my dad puts the silverware on top of the plates. Ok, so much for cooking. My mom likes doing everything herself. It's a rare occasion that she will actually want me to help her.

I walk into the dining room and see Chandler admiring the pictures that are on the wall. I smile. "Hey Chandler, I didn't know you guys were here."

He turns around and smiles at me. "We just got here a few minutes ago." He walks over and takes some plates from me. "Let me help you." He starts setting them down. "There's a lot of pictures of you and Ross when you were little."

There really is. It's a little embarrassing that my parents have so many pictures of us hanging on the wall. "Too much I think."

He laughs. "No, you were a cute little girl."

I smile, blushing a little. "Where is Ross?" I want to get off the subject of me.

Chandler shrugs. "With Rachel I think."

I roll my eyes. "Gosh, I wish they would just get together already." They are both always talking about each other and they get jealous if either one of them gets hit on or if they flirt with anyone else. I think that I can speak for everyone when I say it's getting annoying.

"Yeah." He says and looks at me intently. Almost like he wants to tell me something. But he stops himself from doing so.

Ross ends up coming back just in time for dinner. He looks unbelievably happy. I nudge him at the table while my mom gets the dessert. "Why have you had a smile on your face through this entire meal?" I feel Chandler, who is on the other side of me looking at him for an answer as well.

If possible his smile grows bigger. "I asked Rachel out today and she said yes." I don't think I have ever seen Ross happier than this moment right now.

I grin and hug him. "Oh Ross that's great." But I pull back and look a little confused. "Wait, how will that work? You're two hours away at college."

Ross rolls his eyes at me. "Mood killer. We will make it work. Besides, school is almost done for you guys and she applied at my school."

I nod without saying anything. Apparently we aren't as close as I thought we were. She didn't tell me this. I had no idea that she was applying to colleges.

I sit in my room after dinner. I decide to go online since there isn't anything else to do when I hear a very soft knock on my door. I get up and answer it.

Chandler stands on the other side of the door. Smiling at me, he always smiles at me. I like it. I think it's sweet.

"Rachel is here so she and Ross are talking on the couch together. I was tired of being a third will." He tell me.

I completely know how that feels. I felt like that before they were a couple. So I move aside and let him in my room. My parents are asleep so I shut the door behind him. It's not like anything will happen between us anyway.

We both get on my bed and rest our heads on my head board. We are both in our pajamas and toe socks.

"How are you holding up?" He ask me and I know he is talking about the break up between Aaron and I. He's the only one that really asked me. I don't think anyone really cared for him and they were happy when we broke up.

"I'm doing ok. Now that we're broken up, I know that it's for the best and sometimes I wonder why I ever dated him in the first place." Wow, why is he so easy for me to talk to? It's even easier to talk to him about my breakup then Rachel. Every time I am with her, it seems she only wants to talk about Ross and nothing else.

He nods slowly. "You deserve better than him anyway. You deserve someone who will treat you with respect, who will put your needs first, who loves you, who isn't himself unless he's with you, who understands you, who could never picture himself without you."

I scoff. "Yeah and if you ever meet someone like that, let me know." I haven't met anyone like that. It would be nice to but it's doubtful.

He looks away and down at his lap a little sad. Wait, was he really talking about himself just now? His words were spoken so soft and sweet like he really meant them and they came from the heart. Not even Aaron had talked to me that way.

He gets up off my bed. "Well, it was nice talking to you. I'm going to head to bed." He tells me before leaving my room.

I guess I won't know if he was talking about himself or not because the next morning when I woke up, he and Ross were already gone and heading back to college.
