BILLIE woke up at around 7am and walked downstairs for breakfast.

"Morning." V said as she put some eggs on a plate and handed them to Billie.

"Thank you ma'am," Billie said taking the plate and sitting at the table. "Ugh i really should be getting back to my house, just to make sure their not dead." Billie said annoyed.

"Probably, but you're not sleeping there, I will not allow it." Kev said walking from downstairs.

Billie laughed. "Thank you, you know if you want me out of your hair you can just tell me." Billie said taking a bite out of her eggs.

"Oh don't be ridiculous, it's a blessing we have you here, don't even think for a second that your a burden." V exclaimed. In that moment Billie felt like she had a place. She felt welcomed. Not that she didn't feel welcomed before but she always felt like she was a charity case and that she was in the way. But now, she felt at home. This was, her home.

She finished her food and headed upstairs to get changed. She put on a red hoodie with a black beanie, black sweats and a gold chain.

"I'm heading to the Gallagher's!" She yelled as she opened the front door.

"Say hi to Fi for me!" V yelled back.

"Morning Gallagher's!" She yelled from the from the front door.

"Morning!" She heard Debbie and Fiona reply.

"Can I borrow five bucks?" She heard frank weep.

"No" Fiona replied coldly

"Debs." Frank begged.

"For what?" Debbie asked as she took a sip from her orange juice.

"I want to light a candle for Bianca at the foot of the Blessed..." Frank said as his voice cracked.

"No."

"Here you go Francis." Billie said putting a 5 dollar note on the bench next to him.

"Oh thank you dear child, I love you." Frank said almost about to burst into tears. He stayed silent for a second before talking again.

"I hope, someday, you two have the precious gift of feeling what I felt for that beautiful young woman." He spoke and began to sob before starting again.

"And then to have that love stolen cruelly from you by a pitiless God. And then, maybe, just maybe, you'll remember this day and your fathers anguish, and you'll be ashamed of the lack of compassion showed him in his time of need." Frank said whilst pulling his jacket on and making his way through the kitchen.

"I love you my little brown banana, and I love you my pale child. I just want you to know." He finished and kissed the top of both Billie and Liams heads and leaving out the back door.

"I don't know how much more of that I can take before i stab him in the neck with a broken beer bottle." Fiona said before taking a sip from her coffee.

"Oh leave the poor man alone." Billie said laughing and pouring herself a cup of coffee

"Hey my little bean." She said to Liam tickling him and sitting down at the kitchen table.

Billie and Fiona looked over at Debbie who was playing with her hair and seemed to be day dreaming.

"What are you smiley about?" Billie and Fiona said in unison.

"I'm happy, can't i be happy?" She responded

"No, not about this." Fiona shot back at the girl before continuing, "Theres absolutely no reason to be happy about this."
