in love- Ian Gallagher ❤️

thanksgiving.

Then next morning, Fiona walks into the kitchen with a bunch of things that Grammy bought us.
Fiona: What else did Grammy buy you guys?
Then she walks over to Liam and takes the iPad he's watching.
Fiona: Sorry buddy, gotta sell everything.
Debbie: She still won't get out of her room.
Carl: I know what i want for Christmas.
Fiona: I told you not to go up there. Leave her alone.
Debbie: How's she gonna eat?
Carl: An AR15 rifle.
Fiona: She'll figure it out. No one's buying a rifle.
Debbie: Is something wrong with her? She hasn't gotten out of bed in days.
Fiona: It's just what's she does.
Carl: Little Hank has a rifle.
Fiona: Little Hank is being raised by wolves.
Ian: Mom's bipolar, Debs.
Debbie: So like North and South pole?
Ian: Sort of.
Debbie: Well, what can we do to help?
Taylor: Not much. Just wait it out.
Debbie: For how long?
Fiona: Until she snaps out of it. Which she always does. It just takes time.
Debbie: I wish Lip was here. We should call him. He'll know what to do.
Fiona: There's nothing to do, Deb's. It is what it is.
Ian: Well, i'll see if i can get her up.
Fiona: Ian, Don't-

A few minutes later, i go up to check on them. Ian is walking out of her room. I guess he didn't get any luck.
Taylor: She okay in there?
Ian: She's fine. Okay?
Taylor: Jesus, i was only asking.
Ian: Well don't. Only ask. Not everything is your business.
Taylor: I fucking live here. Don't think you can tell me what is and isn't my business you piece of shit!
Ian: Don't raise your fucking voice at me!
Taylor: Or what, You gonna hit me? Show me how much you love me!
Ian: fuck you! End of conversation.
Taylor: End of relationship.
Then his face drops, i walk into our room and slam the door. I get into my short black dress, put my hair down and do my makeup with red lipstick and red heels like usual. I walk downstairs and Fiona's face drops after seeing what i'm wearing. Ian probably told her what i said, or she probably heard me screaming.
Fiona: What the fuck are you wearing?
Taylor:  A dress Fiona, What does it look like?
Fiona: Where are you going?
Taylor: To a club. So fuck you Ian.
Fiona: Don't do this T.
Then i walk out and slam the front door. I make my way to a club. Then i meet an old Guy called Ned. He wasn't good looking but i'm gonna do it to piss off Ian.

Later on, me and Ned are at his apartment. I'm naked stood at the window, glaring out at the city.
Ned: Hey blondie, think fast.
He throws a drink to me and I catch it, then we both laugh. He's also naked.
Taylor: Sweet place you got.
Ned: Yeah, we have company condos all over the country.
Taylor: What do you do?
Ned: Real estate. I live in Miami.
Taylor: Mm. Mind if i uh- Sleep here for the night?
Ned: What, you don't like it at home?
Taylor: Not at the moment. Let's not talk about it.
I chuckle and then we both put down our drinks.
Ned: Well, that's no problem for me. We could go for round three, huh?
Taylor: Come on. I can take you.
Then we start wrestling and we fall onto the bed.
The next morning, i wake up and Ned's still asleep. I get up and put my clothes back on. Then he wakes up.
Ned: Hey, where you going?
Taylor: Back to my place for Thanksgiving with my family.
Ned: Call me.
Taylor: Uh- yeah. Sure, will do.
I smile and then put my shoes on and grab my phone.

Then i get back to the Gallagher house. I take a deep breath and then walk in. Monica must've got out of bed, everyone is here. Fiona looks shocked when i walk in.
Fiona: Where have you been?
Taylor: Out.
Fiona: Did you come home last night?
Taylor: No.
Fiona: Even think to call?
Taylor: I'm here now. I wasn't gonna miss a family holiday.
Fiona: Come here.
I walk over to her and then she hugs me, i smile at her.
Fiona: Happy thanksgiving. That's a nice hickey, go cover it.
I cover my neck and then smirk and walk up the stairs. I get up to the room and see Ian, i got to turn around and he grabs my arm.
Ian: Listen, i'm sorry.
Taylor: I don't wanna hear it Ian, don't talk to me. We're going to act like we're fine in front of your family.
Ian: Our family. You know your a Gallagher now. Can we talk? Please?
Taylor: Fine, but not now.
I then get in the shower, i walk back into the room and get changed into a skirt, a top, some fishnet tights, boots and i curl my hair. I then do my makeup and cover the hickey with concealer. I then walk back downstairs.
Debbie: Should i set a place for Lip?
Veronica: Sure, sweetie.
Frank: You better not of started without me?
Frank says walking in through the back door.
Fiona: Frank?
Debbie: Daddy!
Carl: You gonna come to dinner?
Frank: Of course, I am! So is your mother.
Fiona: Lithium?
Frank: Moni! I got your medications.
Carl: Mom's under the stairs?
Fiona: How long has she been under there?
Frank: Here you go sweetheart, here's your candy. That should do it.
Fiona: Get out of there. Get out of there.
Monica: No, Fiona. No.
Fiona: Come on out. Come on. Get out of there, come on!
Monica: I look a mess.
Frank: No, No, no you do not. You look beautiful. Doesn't she look beautiful, kids?
Debbie: You look great.
Fiona: Your not spending thanksgiving under the stairs. Debs, set a place up for Monica. We're all having dinner together, with the kids at the table.
Frank: That's right, your gonna sit right here.
Well then, happy thanksgiving. Happy thanksgiving!
Then we all cheer when he says it for the second time. Then i sit in between Ian and Fiona because no one else other than Fiona knows about mine and Ian's break up.
Kevin: Here we go.
Veronica: Good job baby!
Kevin: Can't wait to get that turkey in me!
Frank: All right, let's eat.
Veronica: Uh, we haven't said Grace yet!
Frank: I'll say it. I'll say the grace. Hold hands.
Dear Lord, thank you for this food that we're about to eat. Thank you for bringing Monica back to me. And please make my brother Clayton burn in hell for all eternity when the time comes. Amen.
All: Amen.
Frank: Pass the stuff around.
Then we start passing everything around and eating. I genuinely feel like i had a family.
Monica: Im gonna go wash my hands.
Ian: All right.
Debbie: Is Lip coming?
Fiona: Uh- he knows what time we're eating. Mashed potatoes please.
Taylor: Im gonna go get a beer.

TW!!

Then i walk into the kitchen and see Monica on the floor bleeding badly from her arms. I scream, a really horrifying scream. Kevin and Fiona walk over to me and gasp.
Kevin: Holy fuck.
Frank: What?
Fiona: Give me a phone. Give me a phone.
Veronica: Come on guys upstairs. Upstairs.
Then Steve runs over and puts towels on her wrists to try stop the bleeding.
Steve: All right. We're good, we're good. Don't worry. More towels.
Fiona then calls 911 for help, none of us knew what to do. My body was in shock. I see Ian next to see tearing up.
Fiona: There's been an accident. 2119 North Wallace. She's bleeding badly. Yeah, she's awake.
Steve: Frank, more towels. More towels, somebody get me a fucking towel.
Then Ian walks over panicking trying to find a towels.
Fiona: Frank, they wanna know if she took any pills. Dad!
Fiona: I'm not sure.
Steve: Your good. Breathe for me. Do you see me? Help me with her feet Frank. Frank! Kev, get over here.
Then Fiona hugs Ian, i just sit on the stairs and curl up into a ball and put my head in my knees.

Next thing i know i'm being carried into a car. I don't even open my eyes, then a few minutes later i'm being carried out and i'm sat on a chair. I slowly open my eyes to see we're in the hospital and everyone's surrounding me on the chairs.
Doctor: Miss Gallagher?
Steve: Debs, stay with me.
Fiona: How is she?
Doctor: She's stable.
Ian: Thank god.
Doctor: We're gonna hold her for 72 hours to make sure she doesn't try to harm herself again. She's bipolar?
Then Fiona nods, i just stay sat in my seat. I feel so bad for everyone. Monica kind of gave me an idea. I haven't cut in a while, me and Ian broke up. What's the point of living? Thanks Moni.
Doctor: Okay, we'll get her back on her meds.
Ian: Can we see her?
Doctor: No, not right now. She's heavily sedated.
You should go home, excuse me.
Then the doctor walks away and Steve walks to Fiona.
Steve: You okay? Lip just called.
Fiona: He's coming?
Steve: Karen's having her baby upstairs.
Kevin: Holy fuck!
Then everyone starts running, i stay in the chair. I don't wanna move, i feel numb after seeing that. Traumatised. Then Ian comes back and picks me up, i try to fight it. Eventually i give up. He starts running with them and we finally get to the room.
Doctor: More visitors.
Fiona: Hey Shelia!
Shelia: I'm gonna be a Grandma!
Karen: Great. Let's just have the whole fighting Illini marching band in here while we're at it.
Lip: Debs, look, look. My baby's about to come out.

I open my eyes slowly and get down from Ian's grip. He looks down at me.
Ian: You okay?
He's quite close to me, i push him back and stumble out the room. I see a nurse carrying a tray of pills.
Taylor: Here, i'll take them in. The doc said as soon as possible. Thanks.
The nurse nods, i smirk, how dumb is she. I go into the bathroom and take all the 8 pills with the water. I carry the tray back out with the empty pill bottles on them. I walk back into the room and place them on a chair.
Debbie: Ew.
Carl: Vagina.
Jody: Breathe Karen.
Karen: You keep breathing, fuck nut.
Everyone's too focused on the baby, i walk back outside the room and collapse on the floor.

Ian's PoV:

We see a bunch of nurses run in the hallway, i walk outside to check what's happening. Taylor is passed out on the floor. I shout for Fiona.
Ian: Fiona! HURRY!
She comes out and gasps at Taylor on the floor.
The nurses put her on a bed and wheel her away. I follow the nurses.
Ian: Is she going to be okay? What happened?
Nurse: I don't know. We need to run some tests. She's unconscious at the moment.
I follow the nurses to a room, the close the curtains around her. I look through a little hole. Then the rest of the family comes behind me.
Kevin: What happened?
Debbie: Is Taylor dying?
Fiona: No. We- uh don't know.
Then Veronica walks up behind them all, she came after them. She's holding a few bottles of empty pills.
Veronica: I found these in the room.
Ian: Oh shit...
