Second Oldest ~ Shameless

A Jailbird, Invalid, Martyr, Cutter, Re***d, and Parasitic Twin

Fiona has been bailed out of jail and is back home, but it's not over yet. She still has her appeal hearing and find out what kind of sentencing she might receive for the charges. Liam was home too and everyone was keeping a closer eye on him. Also, Frank is still sick and Sammi and Chuckie have been coming by to take care of him. Gwen honestly hoped Sammi will stay out of their way because no matter what biology says, Sammi is not they're sister, they don't even know her.

Also Gwen was thinking about finding another job that pays more, she'll still work a few shifts at the Alibi, though.

Back to the present,

It was morning at the Gallagher house, Fiona was still upstairs in bed, while Gwen and Lip made breakfast and Evie and Liam were in their high chairs, Carl and Pete were feeding them and Debbie was present as well.

"Can you do this?" Carl asked Liam as he made faces, making them both laugh.

"Fiona coming down for breakfast?" Pete asked as he nursed Evie with a bottle of Gwen's breast milk.

They read about how as their baby grows, they should introduce her to new foods, yogurt being one of them.

"She's not up yet." Lip informed.

"Here's your Tang, Liam." Debbie smiled as she came over to her baby brother and placed it on his high chair, "Here you go, baby. Here."

"Make sure he drinks the whole thing." Gwen told Pete and Carl, "He needs his electrolytes."

"Okay." Pete and Carl nodded.

"That's right, and from now on, nothing goes in your mouth unless we give it to you, buddy." Lip told Liam.

Debbie sniffed the air, "What's that smell?"

"Oh, guess." Lip countered.

"Frank! Stop smoking weed!" Gwen yelled up the stairs as Pete moved Evie away from the stairs.

"Ugh! Carl, get Liam away from the stairs." Debbie ordered and Carl did so, pushing Liam away from the stairs and next to Evie.

"Look, I'll take Liam to school today." Lip announced.

"I can take him." Gwen offered.

He shook his head, "No, just take care of Pete and Evie. And I'll grab us some dinner while I'm at school."

"What about co-co van?" Carl asked, "Sheila made it once."

"Yeah, well, I hope you remember what it tasted like." Lip told him, "It's probably the last time you're gonna have it in your life."

"We could order a pizza. Fiona used to let us do that when she's working late." Carl suggested.

"We'll see, buddy." Gwen told him.

Lip shook his head, "No, it's too expensive. All right? We're back to generics from Food 4 Less and dumpster diving."

"I could buy a few groceries." Sammi joined the conversation as she and Chuckie came in, making Gwen roll her eyes.

"Yeah, that'd be great since we have two extra mouths to feed." Debbie said with an attitude.

"Why don't you just tell Frank to lay off the weed?" Gwen asked Sammi as Pete and Lip moved Evie and Liam's high chairs again, away from Sammi and chuckie.

"He's very sick. Worse then ever." Sammi informed them.

"Yeah, well, we're very out on our asses if the social worker makes a surprise visit and the place smells like Snoop Dog." Lip shot back.
