- So, honey, when are you going to introduce us to Joe?-Andrea asked while she was setting up the plates.
- But you already know him.
-you know what I mean. Yes, we knew him, but it was a long time ago. And now you've been dating for more than a month and a half and you haven't introduced him to us, you haven't brought him to dinner.
- I'm not a little girl anymore, so there's no need for that.
- I know you're not a little girl, and as you can see I don't do anything like that, I let you decide for yourself. Is it so hard to invite him to dinner with us?
Taylor rolled her eyes. Whenever her mother needed something, she was sure to get her way.
- Okay, Mom, we'll have dinner sometime.
- Why sometime? Thanksgiving is in a week, come celebrate with us. It's a family holiday.
Taylor thought about it. That's not a bad idea.
- Okay. I'll be free, and if Joe's free, I think we'll come.
- Great, Andrea said and moved the conversation to another topic.

*That same evening*
- Hey, babe- said Joe
- Hi, sweetheart. Did you just get out?
- Yeah, we got a lot of orders. A lot of people want to rent a house for Thanksgiving.
- Speaking of Thanksgiving. My parents are inviting us to spend it with them.
- okay. i'll be free, so we can go.
- cool. You're the best.
- and your favourite.
- Definitely yes. When will you fly in?
-I'll be in New York on the 24th.
- Wow, you can't get there sooner?
- I'm sorry, baby, but no.
- Okay. I have to go now. I miss you so much.
- I miss you too, but I'll see you soon. Love-Joe said and hung up.

Taylor got out of the car, followed by Joe. He took the bags they had brought with them. Taylor opened the gate and they entered her parents' house. Taylor walked a little ahead, hoping to see some of her family, and Joe walked behind, looking around the house, which had changed a lot over the years.
- Baby! - A voice came from inside the house.
- Mommy! It's Joe and me!- Taylor shouted back.
Andrea came out of the house, wiping her hands with a towel. Taylor ran up to her and then Joe came over and he smiled and said:
- hello. Long time no see.
Andrea smiled at him and hugged him.
- Hi Joe. It's good to see you. Come inside, Scott's already waiting and Austin has gone to the store, but he promises to be back soon.
Joe went inside the house. And then Taylor's dad came out to meet them. Taylor hugged him too and went into the kitchen with her mom.
- Well hello, Joe. How was your trip?
- Hi Scott, good to see you. I got a little lost, but Taylor told me how to get there.
- Oh, great. You and Taylor's room is on the second floor, leave your stuff there and come down here to help with dinner. Joe nodded and went upstairs, he walked surrounded by various pictures of Taylor, her family, some of her first awards. He left his things, and went downstairs. Taylor and her mother were arguing about which recipe was best for turkey as Joe heard a young boy's voice from the hallway.
- Hey, someone's going to take my groceries.
Joe walked out into the hallway and saw Austin with two large bags. Now he was almost as tall as Joe.
- Oh, hi. You're Joe, right? So Taylor's here, too?
- Hi, Austin. Look how much you've grown since the last time I saw you. Yeah, Taylor's here, too. She's in the kitchen.
Austin smiled and left all the bags behind and ran into the kitchen to say hello to his sister. Joe could hear them shouting excitedly from the kitchen. He picked up the packages and brought them into the kitchen. He put the groceries in the refrigerator.
- Joe, can you sharpen the knives? This one cuts awfully - Taylor asked.
- Sure, right away.
While Joe was sharpening knives, everyone else was busy doing something, too. After a while, Taylor came up to him.
- Shall we go into the garden? The turkey's in the oven now, and the rest is almost ready.
- Yeah, let's go.
Taylor put on her coat and Joe his jacket and they went out into the garden. They sat down at the table that was there. Taylor sat on Joe's lap with her arms around his neck.
- How do you like it here?-she asked.
- It's cool, everything's changed so much. But only for the better.
- Yeah, that's for sure. Did you put our stuff in the room?
- Yeah, a long time ago.
- Why don't we go change?
- I think when you take your clothes off, we'll find something fun to do.
Taylor kissed him.
- Well, well. What a bad boy. Behave yourself, it's family dinner after all.
- All right, you got it.
Taylor laughed and he kissed her with a little tug on her hair.
Taylor pressed closer to him, and their tongues intertwined. Suddenly, they heard a voice behind them:
- Of course I'm sorry to interrupt you from such a fun activity, but mother wants you to set the table.
Taylor looked away from Joe and said:
- Okay, we'll be there in five minutes.
Austin snorted sarcastically and left while Taylor went back to Joe. But soon they were back in the house, helping to set the table. When everyone was finally seated at the table Joe looked over the dishes. There was turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, bacon bean casserole, sweet yams, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, cornbread. He couldn't wait to try it all because it smelled so good.There was also apple cider on the table. Before the meal began, the family and Joe thanked God and each other for all the good things that had happened to them over the past year.Then they watched the New York Thanksgiving Day Parade, which included a march of bands, various moving platforms, songs and numbers from Broadway musicals, and giant helium-filled balloons. And then Taylor turned everyone on to an episode of Friends about Thanksgiving. Then Austin and Scott watched some comedy on TV, while Andrea, Taylor, and Joe played scrabble.Afterwards, they ate some more, and then everyone called relatives and shared their impressions of the celebration. Then they watched the news and decided to go to their rooms, because there was still the weekend ahead. Joe had already showered and was waiting for Taylor. She came out wrapped in a towel, and there were drops of water dripping down her body that she hadn't had time to wipe off. Joe was lying on the bed, staring at her naked back. When Taylor lay down next to him he reached up to kiss her. She responded and he hovered over her. He kissed her neck, his hands roaming her body.Joe pulled off Taylor's sweatshirt and then left kisses on her breasts and stomach and slowly pulled her panties down her long legs. She pulled off his T-shirt and began to undo his belt. He helped her and took off his pants, leaving only his panties on. He was about to take off his panties when Taylor said:
- Shit. Joe, stop.
Joe asked with surprise:
- what's up babe?
- We didn't bring condoms.
Joe cursed quietly and moved away from Taylor. But not a minute later, he smiled at her like the devil and said:
- "You know, I can make you feel good without that.
In one swift motion, Joe knelt between Taylor's long, straight legs, and wasted no time in kissing the inside of her thighs, moving from the knee upward, closer and closer to where she needed his lips the most. Without reaching her sweetest spot, he moved down to her knees again and did so again.
-Joe- Taylor couldn't stand it-please.
-Please what? - the guy glared at her slyly, smiling a devilish grin as he looked up at her from below.
-Joe, you know very well.
Slowly, but vigorously, his lips made contact with her erect clitoris, while he gently caressed her thighs with his hands, digging his fingers into the soft flesh. Penetrating the depths of her labia with his tongue, he felt the blue-eyed beauty's hands play with his hair, pulling it back and guiding his head closer to her body.
At this rate, after some time of enjoying her and her euphoria, he brought her to her climax.Joe rose from his lap, picked up the blanket that had fallen on the floor and carefully, with the utmost care and concern, wrapped Taylor in it. Then he pulled her gently into his arms and said with a smile:
-Well, I guess we can go to sleep now.
She just smiled back at him. She ran her fingers over the muscles of his arms, breathing in his familiar scent.
