I figured we could all use some fun fluff after everything that happened.

"Happy thanksgiving!" EJ yelled grabbing Gina's shoulders from behind. "EJ! You sacred me." Gina looked down. "You made me spill frosting on my shirt"

"Sorry you know I love thanksgiving. Are those your famous turkey cupcakes I see?" EJ reached for one Gina playfully slappd his hand away. "Hey! No. You have to wait for the company to come."

"I can't believe everyone is coming" EJ said "I'm SO excited"

"Me too. I have to change my shirt, I'll be right back." Gina came back a second later with a new shirt.

"How do I look?" Gina asked "amazing as always" EJ grinned
The doorbell rang, it was Ashlyn, Big Red and Harper. "C'mon in guys!" EJ smiled "we got the pizza!" Big Red said

"For thanksgiving?" Gina asked

"Hey don't look at me EJ wanted a potluck." Ashlyn smiled "I thought it would be a fun idea" EJ said

"I know baby i'm just giving you a hard time." Gina smiled

There was a knock on the door. "Did you all forget about us?" a familiar voice asked Gina opened the door "Carlos!"

"Gina!" Carlos smiled and gave her a hug. "Hey babe some help with this?" Seb asked he was holding a huge turkey on a platter, And trying to hold the hand of their four year old at the same time. "Sorry, I'll take that." Carlos took it inside "from my family's farm" Seb explained. He bent down to the four year old he was blond with blue eyes and red glasses, Seb and Carlos had adopted him when he was a baby. "Jackson you remember Gina right buddy?"

"Hi" Jackson waved shyly

"Hi Jackson, you've gotten so big!"

Seb turned to the four year old. "Ready to go inside bud?"

"Yeah"

As soon as Jackson got inside and spotted Harper he smiled

"Harper!"

"Jackson!"

They hugged and ran off to play together.

Carlos was an actor in L.A. Seb was a framer, they both loved there jobs.

Soon Kortney and Howie came with there five year old daughter Jasmine she looked like a mini version of Kortney but with Howie's dark curly hair. Kortney and Howie were both actors in L.A. they loved it.

"Look at you" Kortney smiled "a lot has changed in the past few months."

Gina grinned "oh stop it."

"How far along are you?"

Gina put a hand on her belly. "Six months."

"You look great" Howie said

"Thank you" Gina grinned

A little while later Kortnrey and Big Red rushed to the door, Kortnrey squealed in happiness. "I think their here!" EJ smiled

Gina and EJ went to meet them, EJ and Rickey hugged each other and Gina and Nini embraced. "Look at you. You're glowing." Nini smiled Gina blushed "thanks. How's California?"

"Amazing" Nini smiled

"I missed you man" EJ said

"So did I, buy the way we have pies for the potluck." Ricky said holding bags in his arms. "Babe can you get Conner inside?"

"Yep" Nini smiled "you're the best" Rickey kissed her on the cheek.

Conner was seven now and had his mom's dark hair but it was crazy curly like his dad. He had Rickey's eyes.

"Ready to go inside?" Nini asked

"Why do I have to?' Conner asked

Nini sighed "you get to see your friends"

Conner thought it over "ok, but i'm going inside because I want to not because you made me."

Conner walked inside. "What was that?" EJ asked sighlty amused "sorry" Nini said "we've gotten to the stage where we've realized that we don't have to do everything that mommy and daddy say anymore. It's really fun."

"That sounds hard" EJ said

Nini shrugged "it's all a part of being a parent." she smiled "you two will find out about thst soon enough."

They went inside. Soon they all sat down. The kids were all playing tag anf running around. "It's a shame our kids don't get along" Rickey joked

"Kids! Dinner time!" Howie yelled

the kids continued to run around the house. "I got this." Gina stood up "Kids! Whoever sits down at the table gets a special trucky cupcake!"

"CUPCAKES!" the kids all yelled and they sat down at the kids table. All of the adults looked at her amazed. "And that is how it's done" Gina smiled

EJ stood up "Can I just say something really quick?"

"It better be quick Caswell." Carlos joked, everyone laughed. "I'm just so grateful for everyone of you, when I met you all those years ago I had no idea that we would become so close but i'm so happy we did. I love you guys." EJ raised his glass "to the family you were born into and to the friends who become family." Everyone raised there glasses and cilnked them together. All of them grateful to know each other.
