Alcohol | Gallagher sister*-discontinued-*

Twenty three

I dont really know how long its been.

Everyday one or two of my siblings come to see me. Frank hasn't come once.

Dwayne has come. So has his parents and brothers. I dont know if his sister has come. I haven't heard her voice. She hates me. Probably because dwayne has another girl in his life other than her.
Shes obsessed with dwayne.

I heard the door open and felt the bed dip. I heard small sniffles. Someone was crying.

"ivy. It's Fiona. I miss you. We all miss you. Even Liam. Dwayne misses you too. Frank came by, he didn't even care that you were in the hospital. It is different without you Ivy. I feel so bad that i was one of the reasons you did this to yourself. I am so sorry. Ivy please come back. Please." Fiona said. She lightly touched my arm.

I felt something spark in me. I have to wake up. I have to get better. For Fiona, Lip, Ian and Dwayne. For Carl and Debbie and Liam. I need to wake up.

Wake up.

I tried to open my eyes but they were glued shut. I trued to twist and turn. I tried to thrash around. Then beeping was heard. .

The heart monitor.

Fiona gasped. "help! I need help!" she yelled for a doctor.

I kept trying to thrash. Doctors started working on machines and holding me down.

I tried with all my might one last time.

My eyes shot open and i gasped. I searched for Fiona and saw her crying. I reached out for her. She rushed over and hugged me. she hugged me so tight.

"ivy. Oh Ivy." she cried. I felt weak. I tried to talk but the only thing that came out was a weak mumble.

"let her rest. She will need to recover for a little bit. Ivy Rose, you are a strong one." the doctor said patting my back and walking out of the room.

"okay. Uh I'll be back. Get some rest im going to go tell the others." fiona said helping me get comftorable and rushing out of the room.

"shes in here" i heard a voice say from outside the door. I saw all my sibkings walk in. Lip came up to me first. "Ivy im so sorry." he said wrapping his arms around me and rocking me back and forth. He kissed my head and let ian come up to me.

"I'm sorry too. I know you just care about me. I love you." he said. I leaned my head on his chest and accepted the hug.

"hey dont hog her!" carl said pushing ian out of the way. He came up to me amd hugged me. Tightly. He pulled away. "i guess im sorry too." he joked lightly punching my arm.

Debbie came up with Liam. She wrapped her arms around my waist. "i missed you Ivy." she said. I smiled at her and pinched Liams cheeks. Debbie climbed in bed with me. Liam in the middle of us.

"I'm sorry guys. I love yall and I cant live without yall. Thats why I did what i did. I hate yall being mad at me. Especially at the same time." i said.

The 6 siblings smiled at me. We spent the rest of the week chatting and chatching up on what i missed when i was in a coma.

I finally arived back home. I saw a fancy black truck outside our house. It was a chevy and it had silver lining around the doors.

Ian was helping me keep steady while i walked. I still felt a tad weak. We all went inti the house and I saw Dwayne on the couch.

He was in a white shirt with a black suit jacket over it. He was wearing blue jeans and his fancy brown boots. His black cowboy hat was set in his lap and he was fiddling with his hands.

He looked over at the door and sprang up when he saw me. He smiled and held his hat in his hands.

My siblings stoofd in the doorway of the kitchen watching. They knew something i didn't.

"I'm so happy to see you ivy. I missed you so much." he said stepping closer to me. I smiled and wrapped my arms around his waist and he wrapped his around my shoulders.

We pulled apart but we still held each others arms. "i was wondering if you-" he look over to Fiona and she nodded and smiled. "-if you wanted to go out on a date with me. I really like you." he finished.

I took a deep breath. I smiled at him "yes. Yes i will." i said then pulled him into a hug again.
