  "Hello?" Fiona's voice said as she picked up the phone.

  "Hey Fi, so uhm, is Ian around?" I asked.

  "Uhm, no, why are you calling from a jail?" Fiona asked.

  "Just- I'm I'm at the jail, tell Ian, thanks bye," I said and hung up.

  I feel crappy just for calling her, I mean she has so much on her plate already.

  "Why did you take the baby?" A man sitting across from me asked.

  "He was dying, I had to do something," I said.

  "Mhm, and why did you refuse a breathalyzer?" He asked.

  I shrugged, "I wanted an officer there."

  He nodded, "Well your in luck, we'll do your drug test tonight along with a breathalyzer and then if all goes well we'll send you where you want."

  "Okay yeah, thank you," I said.

  "Don't thank me yet," He said taking me to a woman who watched me do the drug test and the breathalyzer.

  I sat in a room and soon Ian came in with Lip and they joined me.

  "You okay?" Lip asked reaching over putting a hand on my shoulder.

  "Yeah, just hope everything goes okay, kinda worried about the baby," I said.

  "It'll be okay," Lip said.

  "I hope so," I mumbled laying my head on his shoulder.

  Lip seemed better at comforting than Ian was but of course, Ian was always there when I needed him.

  "Langsley," The dreaded voice of a police officer said walking in.

  All 3 of us stood up and looked at him.

  "Your free to go," He said.

  "Thank you," I mumbled and Ian basically pulled me out of there.

  "Your staying with us tonight," Ian said while still holding my wrist basically dragging me.

  "I need to check on Nolan," I said.

  Lip stopped Ian and turned to me, "Nolan will be okay, alright? One night, you can bunk with Ian, me, Carl, Debbie, anybody of your choice, please?"

  I looked at him and slowly nodded then walked back with them.

  I sat on the couch with a sigh. Kidnapping charges? She handed me her baby, she let me take him. Good thing I passed, I might be able to move in with my brother officially.

  "You alright?" Carl asked hoping onto the couch next to me.

  I looked at him for a second, "Do you have my phone?"

  "Oh yeah, sorry," He said handing me my phone.

  I selected my brothers number and pressed call.

  almost immediately he answered, "Sy? Where are you? Are you alright?"

  "Yeah, I'm fine, I'm staying at the Gallagher's house tonight, are you okay?" I asked.

  "Doing alright, have fun, visit tomorrow alright? I miss you sis," He said.
