THE NEXT DAY, she was woken up by V telling her they had to go over to the Gallagher's because of this "intervention" Frank and Debbie were planning for Fiona. They all gathered in the living room and waited for Fiona to come down.

"This is so stupid." Billie said looking around the room at all the hung up baby photos and eating some Froot Loops, before Fiona came walking down the stairs.

"What the fuck?" Fiona muttered as she made her way down the stairs.

"Fiona, this is an intervortion, trademark pending." Frank said to Fiona.

"That's kinda genius Frank." Billie said as she walked out of the kitchen taking a bit from an apple and standing next to V and Kev.

"Thank you." He replied.

"A what?" Fiona asked.

"We are here to stop you from destroying your soul, this family, and my legacy. Which all live in the form of a defenceless foetus in your womb." Frank started.

Fiona starts laughing. "Are you serious?" She said making her way to the kitchen, Frank following behind her.

"I came to back you." V said

"I came because i paralysed a dude." Kev spoke.

V hit his arm. "Kev." She said. "I just like to say it." Kev said before Frank starts to talk again.

"And i came because, well, because Carl bought Froot Loops." Billie said with a smile. Carl looks at Billie and gives her a proud smile.

"It's a crime against God." He said.

"When was the last time you went to church? Other than to steal from the offering plate?" She asked him as she stood in the kitchen pairing herself a cup of coffee.

"I light candles for Bianca daily." Frank spoke.

"What's the name of our pope?" Fiona asks.

"He prefers to go by 'Holy Father'." Frank replied.

"Can you recite one prayer?" Fiona asks again.

"This isn't about me, Fiona. This is about Gallagher's. And Gallagher's don't abort.

"No, they just abandon their kids once they have 'em, or they drink so much they can't remember 'em."

"Boom! Good one." Kev stated

"That's the Irish way." Frank said as he turned to face Kev. Kev nodded in response. "We can't help thousands of years of inebriated evolution. Are you saying you wish we didn't have you? Because your mother didn't want to." Frank finished.

"Thought Gallagher's didn't abort." V said.

"I kept her from it until the last one at the end. After you push out six, God gives you a 'Get Out of Hell Free' card." Frank responds.

"Where are you and your friend gonna sleep if Debbie and i have babies?" Fiona asked Nick and Carl. "Cause I'll need to turn your room into a nursery for sure." Fiona says to the two.

"Ha! Burn." Kev says.

"Don't kill babies Fiona." Liam says.

Frank has a smug smile on his face. "I wont kill any babies. I'll just have some cells in my tummy vacuumed out, ok?" Fiona says as she tickles his tummy.

Smooth.

"I confided in you and you told everyone." Fiona says to Debbie.

"Because i care about you." Debbie responds.

"Are you saying I don't have the right to choose?" Fiona asks.

"No. I'm a feminist. I believe you have that right." Debbie says before getting cut off. "Tell her your feelings." Frank says as he grabs her shoulders.

"I want our babies to play together. They're cousins." Debbie states.

"They are not babies. They are not cousins. They are the size of warts right on, and when you get a wart you freeze it off." Fiona exclaims.

"Damn, that's cold." Kev responds.

"You're not watching a tennis match on tv. People can hear you." Billie says.

"Sorry."

"V, you're a mother. Do you wish you'd frozen your babies like warts?" Debbie asks.

"No, I love my babies, but I wasn't 15 when I had em-" V said before getting cut off. "We're not talking about me, we're talking about Fiona." Debbie says.

"I'm hungry. Breakfast?" Fiona asks making her way into the kitchen.

"That's because you're eating for two." Frank exclaims.

"Frank one more word and you'll be sharing a mattress with your friends outback." Fiona threatens.

"Babies bit your nipple, spit up in your mouth," V stars as she makes her way into the kitchen. "Stretch out your punani. Think about that." She says as she squats making a gesture to her statement.

"God, I really didn't need to know that." Billie said with a disgusted look on her face as V entered the kitchen.

As Billie walks into the kitchen to put the empty bowl in the sink. She hears a whispered 'Billie'. She looks up to see Fiona standing near the stairs waving her to come.

Fiona walks up the stairs and Billie followed. Getting weird looks from a few people as she made her way up the stairs.

"Soooo, who's the boy." Fiona asked with a wide smile.

Billie laughed at her excitement and starts explaining. "He's a friend from school. Asked me out on a date." Billie said and blushed slightly.

"You like him? Hmm?" Fiona asked.

"And why do you think that?" Billie asked.

"Because as we're talking about him you're blushing." Fiona stated with a laugh. Billie covered her face with her hands, still with a smile on her face.

"Yeah, the only problem is is that Carl doesn't like him. Whatsoever, so I feel like I can't talk to him about it. Because he just gets fucking angry." Billie stated as her smile faded and she rubbed her eyes.

"Hey, I'll talk to him about it. He's just being a dick right now. It will pass." Fiona said and grabbed Billies shoulders.

"Thanks Fi. I gotta get to school. I'll talk you later though." Billie said as she started to walk down the stairs.

"Yep, ok." She said and walked the opposite direction.

Billie walked out the house and back into Kev and V's.

Billie but on a spaghetti strap black shirt, oversized sweats, a yellow and brown varsity jacket Q gave her the day before and black high top converse. She grabbed her bag and headed off to school on her bike.
