Teen Troubles

Bang, thump, crash. Gemma Byrne stormed around her house slamming doors and stamping her feet. Gemma was so busy storming around she didn't hear the key go into the front door.

Jac entered the house and dumped her keys down on the hall way table she sighed at the thumping coming from upstairs. Jac went into the kitchen and switched the kettle on, she had just sat down to drink her coffee when the sitting room door burst open and Gemma stormed into the room.

"HOW COULD YOU MOTHER" yelled Gemma

"Excuse me young lady but you will not speak to me in that tone" said Jac standing up.

"WHY DID YOU TELL MY DAD I CAN'T SEE HIM" yelled Gemma.

"It's for your own good Gemma" said Jac with a sigh.

"YOU ARE SUCH A COW I HATE YOU" yelled Gemma.

"How dare you call me that young lady" said Jac starting to get cross.

"WELL YOU ARE I'M GOING TO DAD'S AND YOU CAN'T STOP ME" yelled Gemma she grabbed her bag and headed for the front door. Jac quickly followed her.

"If you go out of that door you will be in serous trouble" said Jac her anger now boiling up inside her

"WHATEVER MOTHER YOU JUST A BITCH" yelled Gemma and Jac snapped

"THAT'S IT YOUNG LADY GET UPSTAIRS NOW" shouted Jac

"WHICH PART OF I'M GOING TO MY DAD'S DID YOU NOT UNDERSTAND MOTHER" shouted Gemma

"GEMMA GET UPSTAIRS" shouted Jac at that moment the door bell rung Gemma opened the door it was Joseph.

"Dad" said Gemma.

"Gemma get upstairs" said Jac Gemma looked at her father and Joseph smiled.

"Best do as mum says Gem" said Joseph Gemma smiled back at her dad and went upstairs.

Jac glared at Joseph and headed into the kitchen she grabbed a bottle of wine from the fridge opened it and poured herself a glass. Joseph followed Jac and watched as she downed two glasses of wine and began to pour herself a third.

"Don't you think you should pace yourself a bit our daughter is upstairs" said Joseph

"Shut up Joseph and get out of my house" said Jac starting on her fourth glass of wine.

"No Jac our 13 year old daughter is upstairs and your getting drunk" said Joseph. Jac snorted

"and why is that" said Jac opening another bottle of wine.

Joseph put his hand on the bottle and took it from Jac

"Jac I'm sorry about what I did" said Joseph.

"What you did you slept with Faye Morton of all people and got her up the duff" said Jac "Now get the hell out of my house"

"Fine but I'm taking Gemma" said Joseph he walked out into the hall and called up to Gemma but he got no response he called up again but still got no response. He went upstairs and into Gemma's room. He found the room empty and a note on the bed it said

Mum, Dad

Gemma.

Joseph raced down stairs and burst into the kitchen making Jac jump and spill her wine.

"Gemma's gone I found this note on her bed" said Joseph Jac took the note read it and burst into tears.

"What have I done" sobbed Jac. Joseph put his arms around Jac and rubbed her back.

"We will find her" said Joseph while Jac sobbed.
