To his family's chagrin, Justin had to drive back the day after Thanksgiving because Emily had only gotten two days off work and had an evening shift at the gas station. After many hugs all around and being handed several containers of leftovers they began their journey back to L.A.
Emily glanced at Justin in the driver's seat. He had been very quiet since they had gotten in the car. She couldn't help but wonder if he was still embarrassed about what had happened during the Turkey Games.
When it first happened he had been so distraught that he actually joked about dying, the way people on Blogr tended to do when something mildly inconveniencing or embarrassing happened. Was he really such a drama queen? She had never seen such a wide range of emotions on him as she had that day.
