CHAPTER 7 – Who Wants Turkey?

"If you don't trust her, why are you still with her?" asked Shawn.

"It's a complicated world, you wouldn't understand." replied Sonny.

"Try me."

"TURKEY'S HERE!! TURKEY'S HERE!!" exclaimed Eric, ask he was clapping his hands.

Sonny and Shawn continued to talk about the mob and Sonny's role in it. They also discussed their childhood, they both recalled their absent fathers and how to this day they still haven't forgiven them. They had completely ignored the fact that Jason had brought out the most beautiful turkey ever until…

"Come on Sonny, Shawn, join us for dinner." urged Courtney.

"Only if my new friend Shawn can sit next to me." replied Sonny with a grin.

"But Shawn's MY best friend! He always sits next to ME at any table! He just can't become instant friends with a mobster!" whispered Cory to Topanga.

"Well just grin and bear it honey. That's all you can do for now, we can't ruin your cousin Courtney's Thanksgiving dinner." whispered Topanga.

"You know I hate it how you're always right." whispered Cory. Topanga stuck out her tongue to his comment.

"Jason would you do the honour of carving the turkey?" asked Alan as he handed the carving knife and a fork to Jason.

Jason looked to Courtney as he was handed the carving knife, she nodded to Jason to signal to start carving the turkey. As he was carving the turkey Jason couldn't help but feel that it was somewhat his fault that this year's Thanksgiving wasn't going as smoothly as Courtney would have liked. He couldn't help the fact that this life was so dangerous and stressful, he also couldn't help the fact that no one's family was perfect, especially his Quartermaine family. At least turkey is better than pizza. thought Jason.

As soon as everyone was settled at the table with food on their plate, Courtney felt content. Finally she had the family Thanksgiving she had always wanted, well close enough. "Everyone dig in." she said.

"This is great turkey Courtney!" exclaimed Amy.

"To cousin Courtney and this delicious turkey!" exclaimed Eric as he raised his wineglass.

"Here, here." replied everyone.

"This is nice," started Janine, "having the family together. I would have preferred your first husband's family Thanksgiving instead of this mob Thanksgiving."

"Courtney, why didn't you tell us you were married to someone else before you married Jason?" asked Alan.

"Well…." started Courtney.

"Her first husband was Jason's brother, who at one time was married to Sonny's wife!" responded Janine.

"What on earth?!" exclaimed Amy.

"Courtney how could you be so reckless?" asked Topanga.

"Yeah Topanga and I have known each other our entire lives and we would never dream of running away with another person." said Cory.

"Mother! How could you do this?!" exclaimed Courtney.

Before Janine could answer, there was a knock at the door.
