You Just Have to Live With That

You awoke to what seemed to be more yelling in the Gallagher house. 'Frank's back..', You  immediately thought, groaning and rubbing your eyes. You started to get ready for the day.

While the rest of the family just threw on whatever they found on their floor and brushed their teeth real quick, you always liked to fix yourself up and look nice, but being a Gallagher is not a nice look.

After getting ready, you walked downstairs and saw Fiona and Frank loudly yelling at each other. 

"Get the fuck out, Frank!" Fiona screamed in his face, pointing to the front door.

"It's my damn house!" Frank shouted back. He looked drunk and was stumbling around.

You sighed and covered your ears, tears starting to well up at the corner of your eyes. You pouted and watched them almost start fist-fighting until Lip broke them up.

"Hey, hey, hey! Fi, the kids are here, stop. And Frank, don't lay a finger on any of us." He said. Ian, Debbie, Carl and Liam were eating breakfast at the table while watching them.

Debbie gave you a sympathetic look and hugged you. "Guys, look at (Y/N)!" She shouted at the older adults. 

Fiona sighed loudly and pushed her hair back. She looked over at you and apologized. "I'm sorry, guys. Just keep eati-" She was cut off by a knock on the back door that made you flinch in Debbie's arms.

You were basically the same size as Debbie, if not smaller. You were tiny and petite. Fiona opened the door and immediately closed it upon seeing Steve's face. "Hey, come on!" The 7 children heard Steve yell. 

 Frank was mumbling nonsense before leaving the house. Wow, yet another day in the Gallagher house.

"Fiona, come on!"

Once you and Ian reached the Kash N' Grab, Ian seemed nervous. You decided not to say anything to him.

You walked inside with Ian next to you, but Kash smirked once he saw you guys yet again. You became uncomfortable, but quickly realized he was not looking at you, he was looking at Ian this time. 

You felt sick and walked out of the store. You can't let this absolute pedophile just ruin your brother like he ruined you. You needed to do something, quickly. 

You ran all the way home to get Lip, and the both of you walked to the Kash N' Grab. He walked in first, pretending to drop something off. Almost instantly, Kash and Ian walked out of the backroom.

"Okay, you stack the butter. I'll do the snacks. Oh, Jesus Christ, Lip!" Kash said. Ian looked over at you & Lip. His hair was messy, and Lip caught something that you didn't. 

"Yeah, sorry. Sorry, Kash. I just, uh.. thanks for the tools." Lip spoke, looking at the duo in suspicion. You stared at them, noticing the flaw faster than Lip. You were the smartest in the family.

"Any time. Long as I get 'em back." Kash joked playfully while smiling and pointing at Lip.

"Right." Lip responded as he nodded. You couldn't do anything but stare, and Ian looked nervous.

Lip finally looked down at their feet and Ian glanced at him quickly while re-stocking the butter. Lip's eyes flickered back up to the duo. "You must be joking." He stated simply. You let out a breath of relief once Lip addressed it. 

Ian looked over to you guys with a worried expression. Kash side-eyed you and Lip, but you were too busy feeling hurt by Ian's look.

"This is who your fucking?" Lip asked, pointing at Kash. He looked down at Ian's and Kash's mismatching shoes. They must've put on the wrong ones.

You whispered, "I'm sorry," to Ian, who just looked hurt, ashamed, and embarrassed.

Lip held his hands up for a moment. He was in complete disbelief and did not know what to say. After a few seconds, you watched him storm out of the store.

You quickly caught up to him, but he just kept walking. He looked angry and you were scared of your older brother at this moment.

"L-lip? Are you o-okay?" You stuttered. He turned around and stared you dead in the eye.

"How do you think I fucking feel after finding out my brother-" Lip kept yelling but you managed to tune it out as you began sobbing from being yelled at.

"I-I'm sorry." You cried out, flinching back with your hands up everytime Lip would yell. "I'm-.. I'm sorry!" You shouted.

Lip stopped shouting and just left you there. A small, young, vulnerable girl left on the streets of the Southside, alone. You kept sobbing until you saw Ian walking over. You quickly wiper your tears and put on a smile.

"Hey." You greeted the red-haired boy. He waved a bit in respond.

"You found out." Ian said. It was a simple, short statement, yet held so much more.

You nodded. "I found out." You muttered. "Why, Ian? Why some 40 year old married pedophile, huh?" You asked, pushing and pushing for him to tell you.

"I don't know. It's something that no one knows. I don't know, you don't know, no one knows why." Ian mumbled.

"You just have to live with it." He sighs.

You walked back into the shop the next day and saw a huge mess. Windows were broken, there was glass everywhere, all of Kash N' Grabs items were thrown around or stolen, and Linda was there.

She looked angry and grabbed yours & Ian's hand. In her other hand was a gun.

She lead you guys to the back and started to shoot a target, missing a lot. Next was Kash, who didn't even know how to hold a gun.

Ian was next. He was good and impressed Linda and Kash, but he missed quite a few. You were next. He handed you the gun, and the cold, smooth trigger felt so tempting.

You resisted holding the gun to your head, and started shooting the targets. You didn't even miss one, and Linda started clapping. "What the fuck, you're amazing!" She praised.

"Southside rules." You muttered, slowly lowering the gun in your hand.
