Part 15

~Addy's POV~

"Mom and dad's house is right around the corner." Ash smiles, leading us down a road.

"Where are we staying?" Sofia asked, catching up to us.

"I rented us an airbnb" Rory smiled, shaking the snow out of her scarf.

We get to a small house and Ash knocks on the door. She opens it and takes their boots off.

"Mom? Dad? Addy's here" she yells, shrugging her jacket off.

I hear footsteps and see my dad walk into the doorway. I smile at him and hug him.

"Hello!" he smiles, holding me tight.

"Hi" I giggle.

"Addy!" my mom turns the corner and comes up to me.

Great.

"Mom. Hello" I mumble as she pulls me into a small hug.

"We have to talk about you're life right now. I'll make tea" she runs off to the kitchen and my dad shrugs at me.

"I'll show you two around" Ash offers, clearing her throat.

Sofia and Rory follow her, whispering a good luck to me.

I walk into the kitchen and sit down at the table. My dad picks up a book and goes off to the living room, leaving my mom and I alone.

"So" she places tea in front of me. I take a sip and mentally prepare myself for the questions.

"How's Jake?" she sips her tea.

I choke on my tea and look at her.

"I wouldn't know" I sigh.

"Why not?"

"We broke up a year ago"

"Well that's temporary. He's a nice man"

"He body shamed me" I scoff

"And he's right. You could stand to lose a few" she looks me up and down.

"Jesus mom. Take a break."

"Just saying. He'd get you on the right path."

"I'm interested in someone else."

"Oh? Who?"

"A guy named Alex. He goes to my college."

"You haven't given up on college yet?"

"No. I'm not you"

"What's Alex studying to be"

"A lawyer"

"Boring" she rolls her eyes.

"Are you dating Alex?"

"Yes"

"So he's your boyfriend"

"Well.. no"

"Addy! We have to go to the airbnb!" Rory yells.

"Well gotta run. Bye!" I scramble out of the seat and practically run out of the house.

"That bad huh?" Ash asks once we leave.

"Yup" I sigh.

Ash leaves at their apartment and the three of us continue our journey.

"Here we are" I mumble, grabbing the key from my pocket and jabbing it into the keyhole.

"Someone's angry" Rory grumbled, walking into the house.

"You'd be angry too if your mother body shamed you, talked about your ex and all that jazz"

We figure our who's room is who's and we unpack our stuff.

a/n: pretend they got their luggage delivered or sm idk

I open my phone and look at the date. December 23rd, 11:58 p.m. I watch the time go to 11:59 to 12:00. Christmas eve.

I sigh and text Alex.

Alex 💕

                                Merry Christmas eve<3
                                       Read 12:01 a.m.

I frown and turn my phone off, getting comfortable in the bed. My eyes drifted closed and soon, I was asleep.
