"Where are we going for Thanksgiving?" I asked Ryland.

He shrugs, I roll my eyes.

He's been like this since Riker's birthday (November 8th) when he was in California for the day.

"What the fuck is your problem?!" I snap, causing him to take his eyes off the TV.

"Nothing!"

I sigh, "Then pick where you want to go for Thanksgiving. California or Minnesota." I say softly.

"Minnesota."

-

A day before Thanksgiving we arrived in St. Paul, Minnesota.

I was totally regretting having Ryland pick where to go for Thanksgiving.

I have to see my fricking mom and sister.

I think something happened with Ryland and his siblings when he was in California for Riker's birthday.

He won't talk about it, he doesn't want to go see his family, and whenever I mention something about California or his family he freaks out.

I walk into my house, seeing my sister and some guy making out.

"Get a room" I roll my eyes, making them separate.

"Oh... hey little sis, still jealous of me?" Madison smirks.

"Hey big sis, still sleeping with ten guys at once?" I smile evilly, causing Ryland to laugh.

The guy gets up from the couch, and I realize it's my ex-boyfriend.

"Oh, this is Danny. You've met him before, right sis?" Madison smirks again.

"He's my ex boyfriend, you whor-"

"Babe, we just got here and you're already calling her a whore." Ryland interrupts me, whispering.

"Cause she is one!"

Ryland laughs, leaving me to roast my sister some more.

"You love my left overs don't you, Madi?"

She gives me a death glare as our parents walk in the room.

"Pumpkin!!" I run over to my dad, hugging him tightly.

"I've missed you dad."

"Missed you too."

I glance at my mom,

"Hey hoe what's up" I nod.

"Don't talk to your mother that way!!!" Dad whisper yells, my mom rolling her eyes.

"Why?!" I snap, rolling up my sleeves, "she made me do this!"

The room became silent and awkward.

Everyone could see my scars.

"I think you should go." Mom whispers.

"I think we should." I grab Ryland's hand.

"Goodbye Victoriaaaaaa!!" I say sing song, that's my mom's name.

"Bye Dad I love you! I'll pray for you cause you're stuck with these two!"

"Love you too!"

"Bye Madison, I hate you." I blow her a kiss, making her start coming towards me and trying to strangle me.

I punch her in the nose, laughing. I'm pretty sure I broke it.

"It was self defense." I shrug, running out the door with Ryland who was laughing his ass off.

"I fucking love you." He laughs, kissing me.

"I love me too."

That was the month we flew out to have Thanksgiving with my family.
