BILLIE WALKED INTO THE ALIBI and took a seat. Eventually, Svetlana came walking out.

"Ah, Kev and V's daughter that sings." Svetlana said as she dried some glasses. Billie laughed at Svets statement and waited until Kev and V we're here.

"Wheres Kev and V?" Billie asked Svetlana.

"Don't know." She replied with no emotion. "Vodka?" She asked. "No thank you, I'm 14." Billie laughed.

"I started drinking vodka at 9." She said and pours Billie a lemonade.

Just as Billie took a sip out of her lemonade, Kev and V came walking out from the back. She saw Kev was holding something behind his back. They both walked behind the bar and Svetlana went back. Kev pulled out a few pieces of paper from behind his back, and a pen.

Billie looked closer as these papers and read them.

"Adoption papers?" Billie asked as she looked up at the two.

"Yes. You're already practically our daughter. Why not make it official?" Kev said with his cute smile.

Tears started to well up in Billies eyes. Eventually letting them fall. She got up from her chair with a wide smile on her face and tears running down her face. She hugged both Kev and V.

"So what do you say?" V asked as she pulled away from the hug.

"Yes. Yes. Omg yes." Billie said with excitement. "Thank you guys, for everything. I couldn't ask for anyone better." Billie spoke then hugged the couple again.

"I guess I'll just need my parents signature, that'll be easy." Billie said while laughing and wiping the tears from her face.

"I'll go and do it now." Billie said walking back from behind the bar.

"Love you, Billie." The couple said.

"Love you too." She said back and left the alibi, still slightly crying.

-

Billie made her way back home, or at least what she used to call home. Just after she left the alibi, she put her hood up and read the papers more clearly, with Kev and V's signatures already signed. She started to cry some more. Billie wasn't one to cry that often so it was strange for her that she was able to produce this many tears.

Before she went back 'home'. She decided to pay Q a visit considering he was only a couple houses away.

As he opened the door, Billie hugged him.

"Woah, woah, what's going on?" He asked as she pulled away and he saw her tears.

"Kev and V asked to adopt me, legally." Billie said with a wide smile.

"What!? That's amazing!" He said and picked Billie up and spun her around. Eventually putting her down. They stared into each others eyes, Q eventually pulling her in for a kiss, and Billie kissed back.

They pulled away and smiled at each other.

"Well, I'll come back after, but for now I have to pay my parents a little visit." Billie said with a sigh.

"Ok, come back after." Q said as Billie started to walk away.

As Q closed the door, she had the biggest smile plastered on her face as she looked at her feet. She stayed like that for a while until she looked back up to where she was going and saw Nick and Carl outside with a bike.

Carl was already looking at her when she saw him. She didn't want him ruining her day, so she looked away and kept walking. Eventually, getting to her parents house.

-

Carl watched Billie as she approached a house he didn't recognise. She was holding some papers as well. She looked awfully happy and when a guy opened the door, he saw who it was, Q. Anger began bubbling in his stomach, he saw how happy she was when talking to him about something to do with those papers. Eventually he picked her up and spun her around. He put her down and they shared a kiss. An awfully long one for Carl to watch.

"I'm going to kill him." Carl thought he said in his mind, but, to his dismay, he said out loud.

"What's your problem with him anyways?" Nick asked as he fixed his bike.

"Huh?" Carl responded, not taking his eyes off her.

"Why do you hate him so much?" Nick repeated.

"I don't know, I just do, I guess." Carl explained.

Eventually Billie left Q's and walked down the street directly across from the Gallagher house. He saw Billie look his way. He stared at her for a couple seconds longer, but Billie looked away first. He saw she was headed for her house.

"What the fuck, why is she going home?" Carl said out loud once again.

"Maybe because it's her home?" Nick said sarcastically.

"Shut up." Carl said not taking his eyes off her.

-

Billie got into the house and it was somehow, more gross than the time she came with Ian around a week ago.

She found her dad, Patrick, passed out on the couch. She kicked his leg to wake him up.

"Ugh what? Oh it's you. Do you know what your mother is making for dinner?" He asked and closed his eyes again.

"Wha- no. I need you to sign this, it's for a field trip at school. Before you ask, no it doesn't cost anything." Billie said passing him the paper and pen.

"Give me my glasses." He asked.

"No. Just sign there." Billie said and pointed to the line at the bottom of the paper. He signed the page and fell back asleep.

"Thank you." She said to her father.

Then she made her way down to her mothers room. She opened the door and found her laying in bed, asleep, with a random man she had never seen before.

"Mom, mom, mom." She whispered.

"Mom get the fuck up." She said in her normal voice this time.

Her mother, Maggie, woke up, as did the man.

"And where have you been? I have been worried sick about you! And you just left!" Her mother yelled.

"Oh please, you didn't notice." Billie said to the woman.

That's when Billie noticed the man. He stared at her up and down, licked his lips and stood up.

"Mom, sign here. It's for a school trip, it doesn't cost anything." Billie said and looked at the man for a second time.

"Mmmm, ok." Her mother said and grabbed the pen and paper. She handed the papers back to Billie and fell back asleep on her bed. The man however, didn't.

Billie looked at the papers and smiled.

As she had her back turned, she felt a pair of hands on her butt. She turned around and he grabbed her by the waist, pushing her against the wall. She tried to get away. As hard as she could. That was until she got the chance, she kneed him in the balls, then punched him directly in the nose, breaking it.

"Ow fuck." Billie said as held her hand in the other one. As she was about to leave, she looked at the man as he was in agony on the floor holding his nose. She knew this man.

Terry Milkovich.

"Fucking Milkovich." Billie spat and grabbed the papers.

She left the house in a hurry. Jogging out the front door. Unknowingly, running to the Gallagher house, still looking back at her old house. Suddenly, she bumped into someone and fell over, and this said person fell on top of her. She opened her eyes and Carl hovered over her with wide eyes. He quickly jumped off her, apologising.

"Oh it's, uh, ok." She said quietly, not looking at him.

Billie then left in a hurry, walking fastly to the Alibi.
