Falling for Marshall

Chapter 11

Leah P.O.V:
I wake up to the home phone ringing for the third time, I check the time, it's 8am. I go to the kitchen and pick up the phone.

Leah: "Hello?" I answer the phone

Caller: "Hello could I talk to a Miss Leah Charlotte Lynn please?" A man replys.

Leah: "Speaking." I walk over to the fridge and grab a carton of orange juice.

Caller: "Great, Uhrr, my names Christopher, Uh, yeah...Christopher..Call me Chris." The man says stumbling on his words.

Leah: "Okay...Chris can I help you?" I ask begging for the person not to be a stupid sales man wasting time, I take a sip of my Oj and wait for the man to reply.

Christopher: "You probably don't know me or heard about me in a very long time..." He says

Leah: "well yeah that's right, so could you tell me who you are."

Christopher: "I'm- Uhrr, You recognise the name Reed...Or uhmm Christopher Thomas reed." I think for a moment before I reply, then it clicks a in!

Leah: "Uncle Chris! Oh my god... " Uncle Chris was my dads best best friend, he was like an actual family member, he's the one that let me on the team when the drug raid happened with Jace's gang and a shooting broke out. Uncle Chris lets out a small chuckle and carries on.

Christopher: "You remember."

Leah: "How could I forget, you were like family...You still are." I actully can't belive it him..

Christopher: "Yeah, I'm sorry about not staying in touch, I was in Chicago." Uncle chris says sounding happier

Chicago..Thats where dad went.

Leah: "Chicago, wow...what for.." I ask and it goes silent. I clear my throat. "If you don't mind me aski-" He cuts me off.

Christopher: "No, don't be silly why would I. I just went for family you know...Hey jen, calm down honey!" He shouts at someone in thw background.

Leah: "Jen, as in jennifer, you're daughter?" I ask, if my calculations were right she should be 9 now.

Chris: "You remembered.." He chuckles.

Leah: "How could I forget." I smile and uncle Chris lets out a small old chuckle.

Chris: "Hey listen honey..the reason I wanted to call was to catch up, to see how you were doing you know and...and I was wondering if you wanted to come spend Christmas with me and jen this year." He says, I think for a moment, it was my first Christmas with Ray after a long time.

Leah: "Yeah, uhrm..Sorry uncle Chris I can't make it.." I hear him sigh heavily from the other end. "But you could join me and my fam-" I stop myself. "I mean friends this Christmas." I ask walking into my bedroom to tidy up.

Chris: "Yeah, that- that sounds great, listen honey, i'll call you later for the adress, bye bye." He says.

Leah: "Okay, bye." I hang up the phone and chuck it on the bed.

My room was a fucking mess, I clean up my bed and sort our my dresser, the necklace that my dad gave me isn't on my dressing table or around my neck, fuck where could it be. I walk into the bathroom and check in there, no sign of it, I must have slept with it on at night. I move my duvet again, still no sign, I look under my bed for it and find it there right infornt of a condom..Condom..an unused condom that's half open. I pick it up and throw it away in the bin and turn around to walm away but then stop dead in my tracks when my mind rushes back to when me and Marshall had sex the other night...
