The next morning Alicia woke up happy, it was now official Nathan and her were an item
She started to get changed but couldn't find her shirt
'Mum! I can't find my shirt have you seen it?'
No response
'Mum!'
Still, Alicia didn't get a reply, so she ran downstairs in her bra and skirt and walked into the kitchen
'Mum I can't find my... Bloody hell you could have warned me'
Alicia walked in on Eddie and Rachel lead by the kitchen counter kissing, they broke apart Rachel let out a small sigh and Eddie was looking anywhere but Alicia
Rachel took her cardigan off 'put that round you, and watch you language young lady - oh and do you mind if he stays over?'
'Oi, I have a name you know'
'Nah it's cool, he's alright I guess'
'Bloody unbelievable' eddie sighed
Rachel leaned in to kiss him 'and you too can watch your language'
'Ew gross, uhh hello?! Have you seen ym shirt?'
'Yes it's folded up on your chair' rachel said 'can you wake Phil and Ros, I have the feeling they stayed up quite late last night'
'Could this house get any worse?' Alicia muttered to herself
She ran upstairs and knocked on Phil's door 'oi you two get up!'
Ros opened the door in her dressing gown 'you sound so much like your mum' she said sleepily
Alicia smiled, she liked being compared to her mum 'oi phil get up, otherwise I'm chucking your maths books out the window'
As she said that, he sprung out of bed
Alicia laughed 'what a nerd'
Soon the three children were downstairs
'Oh hey Mr Lawson' Ros smiled at her maths teacher
'Ros, you can call Mr Lawson, Eddie when we're in this house' rachel said with a smile
'Hey Eddie, what are you doing here?' Phil asked
Alicia rolled her eyes at her cousin 'for a nerd Phil you can be surprisingly thick'
'Less of the lip Alicia, now come on, in the car - Eddie where's your car?'
'I left it at home, as I didn't know if we'd be drinking looks like I get a drive in this baby' eddie said looking longingly at Rachel's flash car
'Right where's Alicia, we need to get going' rachel asked impatiently as she headed towards her house
Inside she caught Alicia about to apply some lip gloss
'No way young lady, hand that here you have far too much on as it is'
'But mum...'
'No buts, now I was you in that car NOW don't make me ask again' rachel said firmly, the little patience she had left was waring thin, and Alicia knew not to push her mother too far
'Well someone got up on the wrong side of bed this morning' alicia muttered under her breath
'I heard that, less of the cheek missy' eddie said quietly
'What's it to you, outside of school you're nothing to do with me you're just the man screwing my mum'
Eddie was shocked, and unfortunately for Alicia, Rachel had come up behind her and heard her comment
'Alicia Mason, get in the car now, I don't want to hear another peep out of you, tonight you and I will be having a talk, and don't even think about making plans for the weekend'
Alicia groaned but did as she was told, she knew she was in for it from the tone of her mum's voice
They got to school, Rachel remained inside the car, and told Eddie to get out, he then put his seat down so Phil and Ros could get out, Alicia moved over to get out the car but Rachel pulled the front seat back to it's normal position so Alicia couldn't get out
'Brilliant I'm trapped' alicia thought to herself
'I was going to leave this till later, but I'm so angry with you Alicia'
'Sorry mum...'
'No alicia, your not sorry, your sorry because you want out of this conversation. Eddie is someone who I've loved for a very long time. Now Phil and Ros are being mature about it why can't you be?'
Alicia shrugged and just stared out the window
'Do you have a problem with Eddie?'
'No'
'Then why did you speak to him the way you did?'
'Just got angry I suppose'
'Not good enough'
'He just started acting like he was my dad, and he's not I don't have a dad, so I snapped'
'Alicia, he was probably looking out for you, Eddie's a good bloke. Now tonight after our lesson I want you to apologise to him'
'But mum..' Alicia stopped, warned to stop talking by her mother's glare
Rachel got out and lifted up the chair 'now come on lovely girl, another day - let's forget about this morning. But I don't want to hear a single word about you today ok? Behave'
'Yeah yeah cool laters' alicia was barely listening to her mum as she had spotted Nathan by the entrance
Short chapter I know, but this chapter was half written whilst under the influence (if spelling is outrageous I'm sorry - I haven't had a chance to go through it) and half with a massive hangover - more hopefully to come tomorrow
Please review and suggest storyline ideas :)
And Sarahabc0598 I hope you had a lovely holiday!
