So this just popped into my head I think for once I may do a third person POV, though this may be third person omniscient POV, I'll figure it out when I start typing the story
A/N if I owned HoA 1. I wouldn't be writing fanfiction about it, now would I? 2. We would know more about the osirian stuff 3. We wouldn't have to wait a year in between seasons 4. Fabina never would have broken up and 5. jara would have happened a long time ago. I don't own the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade or Broadway or Radio City or the Rockettes or anything else I may have mentioned in here. And sorry this is late, I meant to post it last night. But, the football thing was added this morning.
Nina sighed and put down the phone. They were supposed to have an early blizzard so all flights in and out of London had been canceled. She wouldn't be going home for Thanksgiving. "What's wrong Nina?" Fabian, ever the doting boyfriend, asked, walking into the living room. "This stupid early blizzard caused all of the flights to get canceled, so I won't be going home for thanksgiving."
"I'm sorry." Fabian had a lightbulb, "The blizzard isn't scheduled to start for another few hours, what if we see if Trudy could run down to the store and get some food for a Thanksgiving dinner?"
"That's a great idea. You're amazing Fabian." He blushed. They ran to the kitchen and asked Trudy if they could have a thanksgiving dinner tomorrow night. (A/N it's Wednesday).
Trudy smiled. "I don't see why not. Besides, I've always wanted to try making a big thanksgiving meal. They've always looked like such fun. But you'll have to check with Victor first." They sprinted upstairs and knocked on Victor's office door. "Enter."
They walked in. "Victor," Nina started, "We were wondering if we could have a thanksgiving dinner? Tomorrow?"
Victor nodded, "Yes, yes." He then waved his hand in the universal signal for "go away." Nina and Fabian (A/N from now on whenever I mention a couple doing something 2gether/ the same time I will just use the couple name 2 save time) smiled and ran out before Victor could change his mind. Nina ran into the hallway to tell Trudy the news and she grabbed a piece of paper and a pen to start writing out a grocery list.
"Okay, so we need turkey, of course, stuffing, potatoes, green beans, cranberries, gravy, -" Nina started,
"What are you guys doing?" Eddie asked, walking into the kitchen.
"Trudy said we could have a thanksgiving dinner tomorrow night since we can't get home," Nina replied.
"YES!" Eddie shouted.
"So, anything to add to the list?" Nina asked.
Eddie made the "give it here" motion; Nina placed the list in his hand.
"Potatoes: mashed or yams?"
"I don't know. Both, I guess?"
"What about mashed potatoes and sweet potato pie?"
"Marshmallow topping?"
"Of course. What am I, a savage?"
"Well, I've seen you eat."
"At least you don't see him let a hoagie go rotten under his bed," Fabian mumbled.
"So that's what that awful smell was!" Nina exclaimed.
"Hey!"
"Well, it was gross." Fabian agreed.
"So, should we give Trudy the list?" Nina asked, trying to prevent any more arguing.
"Sure. But we should probably add pumpkin pie." Eddie said.
"What about pecan?"
"That works too."
"So I think we're good. Let's get this to Trudy."
The note was handed off to Trudy, and she glanced over it and after asking Nina and Eddie a few questions, headed to the store.
"This is awesome. I was all bummed. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays."
"Because you can stuff your face more than usual?"
"Of course."
The Next Day
Nina and Eddie carried all the ingredients for the pies to Mr. Sweets house, with Patricia and Fabian trailing behind them.
"So why do I have to come with you guys again?" Patricia asked.
"Because I have been known to sneak bites of Thanksgiving dinner before dinner is served, and I accidentally let this slip to Nina yesterday, and she decided she needed reinforcements when Trudy told us we were in charge of making the pies and stuffing."
"And why are we making it in Sweeties kitchen instead of ours?"
"Because, the turkey is an all day thing, and as we all know, the other oven in the kitchen isn't meant for cooking," Nina said.
They got to Sweetie's house and Fabian rang the bell. Mr. Sweet opened the door.
"Come in, come in." He said.
They entered, and thanked him again for letting them use his kitchen.
"Of course. And, if you kids want, I can get the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on the telly.(A/N I don't know if that is actually possible)"
Nina's and Eddie's faces lit up.
"What's the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?" Fabian asked.
"Only the best parade ever. It's on every year, and it's huge, there's always performances from some of the best Broadway Shows, Broadway is the American version of the West End, and a bunch of stars sing too, usually. It is amazing. A ton of floats and balloons, and a Radio City Rockettes Performance, and a bunch of marching bands and cheerleading squads.
"It sounds awesome."
"It is."
They turned on the TV that was in the kitchen, then they started on the and stuffing, since they could be cooked at the same temperature.
A hour later, the pies were done and they cleaned up and thanked Mr. Sweet again, then they headed back to the house.
"Trudy, we're back with pies and stuffing." Fabian called.
"Great dearies. Can someone help Amber with setting the table?" Trudy called back.
Nina agreed to help Amber set up the plates and Eddie and Fabian started hanging a "Happy Thanksgiving" banner from the ceiling.
Dinner Time
Everyone's mouths dropped when they saw the table, well except for Nina and Eddie.
"That is a lot of food," Amber said.
"At least we know why the U.S. is one of the most obese countries on the planet," Patricia quipped.
They all gathered around the table and said what they were thankful for, then they all dug in.
"Oh my god this is good," Mara said.
"That's what makes Thanksgiving so great," Eddie said.
"And you know, giving thanks for all the good things in your life," Nina said.
"Food is a good thing," Eddie replied.
"Well, you got me there," Nina told him.
By the end of the night, all of the teens were lying around the common room, either groaning from stomach aches or smiling in contentment.
"Well, I am absolutely stuffed," Fabian said.
"As you should be, it's not Thanksgiving if everyone doesn't feel like they're about to burst afterwards," Nina said.
"I'm glad we agreed on the time. I hate eating Thanksgiving dinner in the middle of the afternoon, I always end up falling asleep and missing at least one game," Eddie said.
"Well, you're missing them this year regardless, since by the time they are on we will be in bed," Nina said.
"Well, not exactly. My friends said they would set up a webcam infront of the tv so I can see the games."
"What about Victor? And the fact that we have school tomorrow?" Fabian asked.
"I took care of that. All of Anubis House does not have to go to class tomorrow since we don't have school the friday after Thanksgiving in the states, and My dad told Victor we are allowed to stay up late to watch the games."
"Nice job Eddie," Nina said.
"Yup. What game?" Eddie asked.
"Redskins-Cowboys" Nina said (A/N I am not a huge professional football fan, and for the most part I have no idea of the rules of football, but I am from the D.C. area and the Redskins have stopped sucking so badly and they beat the cowboys last night (b/c they are rivals), so I figured I'd add it in here. And I don't own anything to do w/ Redskins or Cowboys))
"Awesome me too," Eddie said.
"What team?" Nina asked.
"Cowboys," Eddie said.
"Well that's stupid." Nina said.
"Redskins?"
"Yup."
Later that night, end of game
"Yes, Redskins won! In your face Miller," Nina cheered.
"Shut up Martin," Eddie muttered.
"I don't think I will. Because the Redskins beat the Cowboys, the Redskins beat the Cowboys," Nina started singing this last part and doing a little victory dance.
"It was a fluke," Eddie complained.
"No it wasn't," Nina sang.
"Shut up Martin," he said again.
"Stop whining. It's a little bit pathetic."
"Whatever," Eddie said.
"Will you two stop already?!" Patricia snapped.
"Fine. It was a good thanksgiving," Eddie said.
"That it was," Nina said.
