Amy sat between Lauren and Bo at the table; watching, annoyed, as the two continued to have a conversation with their eyes, both dropping down to look at her on and off.

"And then that chick broke her neck right then and there!" Kenzi explained loudly; while the Valkyrie glared at her and the other inhabitants chorused with laughter; they had just finished the meal; the turkey was nearly bare, it's bones jutting out of the pan. The mashed potatoes were nearly gone, unlike the stuffing plate that was bare. Most of the vegetables were gone, except for the green beans that remained on Amy's plate. The only thing that seemed to last was the wine; courtesy of the blood king himself.

"I think I would have rather watched Tam Tam dance." Dyson grinned shoving his blonde partner playfully.

"Shut up." Tamsin growled, punching the wolf back rather hard.

"And that's how we saved Bruce." Kenzi finished with a lopsided grin.

"Where is Bruce anyway?" Amy piped up.

"No idea." Kenzi shrugged. "We invited him, didn't we?"

"Yeah, lil mama." Hale groaned, rubbing his stomach and leaning back in his chair.

"If I recall," Trick tapped a contemplative finger against his chin, "he was off with that sasquatch somewhere."

"Wanky." Amy grinned; ignoring the succubus and doctor's scolding looks.

"Think we can retire to the couch?" Hale yawned, "I think I finally understand this whole human thanksgiving thing."

"What? Killing off people in thousands and shipping them off to the tedious bits of reality." Amy deadpanned, dropping out of her seat to follow the Siren.

"eh, I was talking about the food." Hale sighed happily.

"Turn on the game!" Dyson called over from the table.

"You're going to watch football?" Kenzi groaned with disdain, dropping in next to her significant other.

"Isn't that a thanksgiving tradition?" Hale grinned; leaning over to kiss Kenzi.

"Just turn on the game, before you start consummating on the couch."

"If this continues, I'm leaving." Tamsin's nose scrunched as she sat down on the end table.

"I'm with her." Amy pointed to the Valkyrie before wandering back to the kitchen. Trick and Dyson sat at the table half conversing and half paying attention to the game on the tv screen. Lauren and Bo stood at the sink, washing some of the scattered dished from their meal.

"Have you come to help, kiddo?" Bo asked, leaning down to the child's level.

"You wish." Amy snorted. "I can't barely reach the counter."

Bo laughed before growing serious, picking the girl up as she stood. "Lauren was just telling me-"

"No." Amy whined, pushing away from the succubus. "I don't want to talk about it."

"You don't even know what I was going to say." Bo pulled the girl closer and held her against her chest.

"Yes I do!" Amy moaned, glaring at the obviously guilty doctor.

"Why don't you want me to know?" Bo spoke softly and gently, hoping to coax the information from the girl.

"Cause it's none of your business."

"Of course it is my business! You're my business."

"Am not."

"Are too."

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"I am not!" Amy snarled. "Now put me down!"

"Not until you tell me why you didn't want me to know."

"Cause it doesn't matter."

"It matters." Lauren stated; giving the girl a warning look.

Amy whined incoherently.

"Oh, come on, baby." Bo cooed. "I just want to get to know you better."

"So what?"

"So it means I care about you."

"Fine. Sorry. My past sucks, I don't like people to know." Amy whined. "Can you put me down now?"

"No." Bo replied simply, holding onto the child tightly.

"Why not?"

"Cause I think you need some cuddles."

Amy whined once more, but relented, leaning into the woman's hold with a yawn; the post-thanksgiving sleepiness catching up with her. Feeling her eyelids grow heavy, the girl gave into the drowsiness and felt herself dozing off in Bo's arms.


Amy awoke slowly; she was lying face down atop Tamsin, the Valkyrie fast asleep on the floor, arms wrapped protectively around her. Squirming out of the Fae woman's grip, the girl had to stifle a laugh, nearly all the party was still asleep. Bo and Lauren were curled around each other on the floor at the opposite end of the couch; Kenzi lay atop Hale, the cushions on the couch sinking under their weight. Dyson lay half underneath the coffee table, arms folded over his chest. Trick was nowhere in sight, which wasn't too surprising, never wanting to leave his precious bar in another's hands for too long.

Amy stretched and meandered through the sleeping inhabitants; jumping as a hand shot out and wrapped around her middle, pulling her toward them.

"Hey, kiddo." Bo greeted sleepily; pulling the girl into her and the still sleeping doctor. "Where're you headed?"

"Nowhere now, apparently." Amy spoke quietly; settling against the brunette.

Bo laughed softly.

"Is Thanksgiving always like this?" Amy asked.

"Yeah, food , friends, napping- standard holiday, in my opinion."

"Human holidays are weird."

"Fae Holidays are weirder."

"I wouldn't really know." Amy frowned.

"Yeah, well, now you will; cause you have us to spend them with."

Amy nodded. "Sorry, about, um earlier. I was being a brat."

"Yeah you were." Bo grinned cheekily; tickling the girl briefly.

"Hey! I'm trying to apologize!" Amy pouted playfully.

Bo's hands stilled. "You don't need to apologize. I get not wanting to explain your past and it seems like Lauren really got it out of you. She's pretty good at stuff like that."

"Heh. Yeah she is." Amy snorted.

Bo grinned. "Think we should wake everyone up now?"

"Only if we get to use those super-soakers that Kenzi bought." Amy grinned slyly.

"Deal."
