After the bell

Thirty two

It Christmas holidays I hadn't seen Jon since the day before Christmas Eve, We couldn't exactly spend Christmas together so he went to his family while I split the time between my mom and dad like every year.

It was Boxing Day and I'm at my dads house with him and my brother, for the past two hours I had watched them both on the X box and I was bored shitless.

Thankfully my phone starts ringing I pick it up of the arm of the couch seeing Jon's name, I smile getting up walking over my dad who was sitting on the floor but he stopped me wrapping his arm around my leg.

"Ignore it" my dad said not letting me move.

"No" I snapped staring down at him hearing my phone stop ringing.

"Peyton I barely see you, and when I do your minds else where"

"I'm ringing them back" I said trying to get out my dads grip.

"I'm not letting you go" he said holding my leg still

"What so you want me to sit and watch some stupid video game" he sighed.

"I don't give a shit what we do. I just want my daughter to get her head out the clouds" My dad said letting go of me getting up and sitting on the couch "who was it anyway?"

"What?" I asked him.

"Who called you?" My dad questioned me staring at me pointing to my phone in hand.

"Her boyfriend" Mingus replied.

"Boyfriend?" My dad said staring at me "you and that Jerk Zach broke up"

"Yeah some guy called Jax" Mingus said from where he was sitting.

"You wanna shut up jerk" I spat "Maybe before opening your mouth get your facts straight"

"Facts? Those are the facts. I saw him all over you. Pretty gross by the way" Mingus said pulling a face pretending to vomit.

"He wasn't all over me" I said trying to think of when Mingus would of seen Jax all over me.

"Who is this Jax?" My dad asked seeming rather interested.

"There is no me and Jax!" I yelled "now if you don't mind in going to ring back Emily"

I walk into the kitchen ringing Jon back hearing his voice for the first time in days was amazing I instantly felt at home.
"Hey babe" he said quickly answering his phone.

"Hey there, god it's good to hear your voice" I smiled.

"Yeah likewise, what you doing?" Jon asked me .

"Talking to you" I chuckled "but nothing I'm just missing you so bad right now, I'm at my dads bored shitless. When you coming home?"

"I will be back New Year's Day" he informed me.

"That feels like a life time away" I sighed.

"It does but it's not that far away"

"Yeah wanna feel your arms around me now though" I sulked "I know that's sad but I feel at home in your arms" I told him

Jon goes quite I heard him chuckle nervously to himself.
"Have I just made you blush?" I asked him giggling.

"Not at all babe" Jon laughed slightly

"Oh my god I did" I laughed.

"Okay just a bit" Jon said clearing his throat.

I sighed out sitting there for a bit "I miss you"

"I missing you more babe" he told me

"Really?"

"Yeah I am" Jon sighed.

"I'm going to go or my dads going to be pissed. I love you"

"Love you too babe"

I hang up staring at my phone when I hear a throat clear behind me I jump turning to see my dad leaning on the wall behind me.

"So Your missing Emily a lot then?" My dad asked.
I stand staring at him nodding my head.

"Yeah cause we like so close not seeing her for a few days we get withdrawal symptoms from each other" I told him, though hearing what I said sounded so stupid.

"Emily is just a five minutes away Peyton" he told me.

"I know sucks don't it" I said walking past him.

My dad stops me by walking in front of me "I'm not sure what's going on Peyton, but I will find out" he told me staring me in my eyes.

"Well I'm not sure what your talking about as nothing is going on" I said moving him to the side so I could get through.
