"I didn't know Thanksgiving was such a big deal in the Cavanaugh house."
Woody said as Jordan took a seat next to him.
"Yeah it's actually one holiday, or any day for that matter that I have happy memories of my mom" she smiled sadly and looked down.
Woody took her chin in his hand, which caused her eyes to meet his. "Are you sure you want us all to be there then? It seems like it's kind of special for you and your dad"
She took his hand in hers "Yeah but Woody, you guys are all our family now"
Woody smiled brightly at what she had said; she had said he was her family. She smiled at him and his silly grin and started to walk away. He grabbed her around the waist "Hey wait, Jordan, when you say that you think of me as family, do you mean like family like a brother or like family like someone you love?" He teased with an adorable grin. She just smiled back at him and shook her head, smacking him playfully on the arm before walking away.
"You know we always had a big, family Thanksgiving back home and one of our traditions is to play a game of football" Woody announced.
"Yeah, that sounds like fun!" Nigel agreed excitedly.
"Unless of course you're afraid of getting tackled" Woody whispered into Jordan's ear" She smirked at him in response.
"I have an idea, why don't we all pick a tradition from our own families' Thanksgiving and incorporate it into this family's Thanksgiving" Lily piped in.
"I like that idea Lily, okay everybody needs to think of something they want to do" Max announced. Garrett hugged her close and smiled at her. Lily smiled back, proud of her idea and happy that she and Garrett would now have their own Thanksgiving.
"Hey Jordan, how about a side-bet? You like competition" Woody asked.
She narrowed her eyes at him but decided to play along "What did you have in mind Hoyt?"
"We'll play against each other and if I win, you have to kiss me. I'm not talking about one of those little peck kisses like we've done before, I'm talking a real, open mouthed, tongue touching, make you tingle kind of kiss"
Jordan rolled her eyes "What makes you think you could make me tingle?" she asked
"Oh you'll tingle" Woody whispered teasingly into her ear.
"Well how could I say no to that?" she asked sarcastically.
"Are you scared?" he mocked.
"Scared of what?" she laughed.
"Me" Woody said moving to stand in front of her.
She pushed him out of the way "No I'm not scared of you, I'll accept your bet, but what do I get if I win?"
"You get to pick what you want"
"And you'll do whatever I want?" she asked teasingly running her hand across his chest and stepping in front of him now.
He smiled and wrapped his arms loosely around her waist and leaned in to whisper, "That's right, whatever you want"
"You want to know what I want Woody?" she asked putting her arms around his shoulders.
"What's that?" he squeaked, swallowing hard, trying to control his excitement.
She smiled, knowing she had him right where she wanted. She leaned in closer, just inches from his lips. "Well I'd want you to stay at my apartment all night" she said moving in even closer, gently brushing her lips against his "cleaning" she finished her sentence with a evil grin and backed away from him, laughing.
"You're mean!" he pouted which caused her to laugh even more.
"Yeah it's actually one holiday, or any day for that matter that I have happy memories of my mom" she smiled sadly and looked down.
