~Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'Cause I've seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you~
(The Pretenders)
Thanksgiving- my favorite holiday. As always, I'll be spending it giving thanks for the bounty of secrets I've harvested from you this year. But leave a place for me at your table. I'll be back for just desserts.
Elizabeth stood in the mirror getting ready to go over to her parents. She stepped out into the living room and saw Chuck.
"Hey" she replied "Are you going to Lily's?"
"You wanna go together?" he asked
"Sure. Save Arthur a trip" she laughed. She pulled a bracelet out of her purse and looked at it.
"What's that?" he asked spotting it. "Is it yours?"
"No, it's J's bracelet" she replied "It was the weirdest thing. Some girl was wearing it at your party. I thought maybe she'd be at dinner and I can return it"
"You sure it's hers?"
"The lock for the bracelet has a heart I had custom made with JTH which are her initials." She replied and showed him. "Unless there is another girl with those exact initials with a thimble, a needle, a spool of thread and a measuring tape charms on it. Then it has to be J's."
"Are you sure she wasn't there?"
"Mom said she was in Hudson all night studying, and I hope that she was and that her bracelet was stolen by Penelope or someone."
"Oh" he replied.
"Let's worry about it later and go to dinner" she said and he nodded.
They arrived at Lily's. Blair was there. Chuck talked to her as Elizabeth went up ahead hugging her dad.
"Hey Rock star" he said
"It felt really weird this year not making the pies. Are you sure they'll taste the same since I didn't make them"
"Well I had your brother go buy them."
"Buy?" she asked "Dad, you're kidding right? I could have made them"
"I didn't want to bother you with that"
"It's my Thanksgiving tradition" she said "So guess what? Next year I'm making them"
