"I'm not a picky eater." She informed him, folding her hands on the table. "Luckily for you."

Great... Now was the awkward part... Between getting their food and waiting for the movie to start.
Now what?

"What are you doing for Thanksgiving?" The question had been simmering under the surface since she'd seen him at her door, and it finally boiled over.

"I don't celebrate Thanksgiving," he reminded her by thickening his accent on purpose.

"Well, yeah, but you'll be here right?" She asked impatiently.

"Yeah, it's too expensive to fly back home," he said, a little sadly.

Lily cleared her throat nervously, looking down at her hands but stealing glances at him.
"How would you like to spend the holidays at my house? With me and...my family?"

Copper froze, staring at Lily. Where was this coming from? What did it mean to her?

Lily just sat there, unable to move. Was that a 'no?'
"I just thought... I didn't want you to be lonely on Thanksgiving."

A smile flashed across Kevin's face.

"You would?" Lily replied with a similar smile to Kevin's. She was glad he'd said 'yes' because her parents were already expecting him.
"My parents are excited to meet you," she told him with a small blush. "They... Think we're just friends, though. They don't know about all the... Stampedes."

Lily laughed, as well, feeling way more relieved than she thought she would be. She reached across the table and took his hand.
