Trauma At Its Finest (Lip Gallagher X Male Reader)

Ch 64. Life Beyond Death

It's supposed to be a simple dinner. Just some good food cooked by Y/N, surrounded by friends and family, it should be a great time. And yet, it isn't going to be. And it's not like it's clear that things have turned so horrible. Only one simple conversation unbeknownst to everyone will make things sour...

"C'mon, stop crying." Lip shushes Maksim in his arms, gently rocking him around. Meanwhile, everyone continues their dinner at the kitchen table. "Everything is fine."

"I'm surprised you haven't gone insane yet." Fiona comments. "I sure did when I had to take care of all of you."

"Lip and I just have better mental strength." Y/N comments.

Mickey scoffs. "Says the guy who goes berserk once there is firework."

"And don't forget we have to help out with your kids." Ian points out.

"Which is why we're grateful." Lip comments as he manages to calm down his son.

And of course, Debbie has to comment something simple, which turned into today's drama. "I feel bad for whoever is going to get those six after you both died."

Kev then wonders something. "Wait. Who's going to get them if you both die?" He says as he, alongside his family are eating along.

"We don't plan to die." Lip points out.

"I know, but just in case." The bartender says.

The married couple look at each other, before Y/N looks back at Kev. "You are."

V looks surprised. "We are? Since when?"

Lip then looks concerned at his husband. "You did ask them if they're okay with being the kids' legal guardians if something happens to us... right?"

"Uhh..." Y/N awkwardly sits still.

V frowns. "He didn't!"

"Jesus, you don't just drop six kids on people without asking first!" Lip scolds his husband.

"I'm sorry! I forgot! I wanted to, but then I was too busy doing my job and taking care of everyone!" Y/N responds back defensively.

"It's alright." Kev says with a big grin. "I forgive you, since we're getting your children."

Mikhail looks shocked. "Wait, Kev is going to be my dad?" Kev can't help but happy to hear that.

Y/N then looks concerned at his older brother. "Only if we're dead."

"Yeah, but if you're dead, I finally get not one, but four sons." Kev comments with a grin, with puts off the two fathers.

"Then we have 8 children!" V comments. "That's way too many!" She then looks back at her brother-in-law. "Can't you split them up or something?"

"I'm not splitting up my kids." Y/N responds back. "They're like a batch. Either have them all or none."

"Then we have none." V responds back.

"Wait, wait, wait." Kev says, trying to calm things down. "Let's not make any hasty decisions. This may be our only opportunity to get sons."

As Kev keeps insisting it, Lip looks disturbed at the taller man. "Please don't tell me you're planning to kill both of us."

Eventually, as he kept listening to the conversation, Ian speaks up. "Wait. So why do Kev and V get the children? Mickey is basically their third dad with all that babysitting and I'm the next guy who babysit them the most."

"Yeah, we thought about it." Lip speaks up. "We felt like Kev and V had more experience with kids, since they already have two."

"Yeah, but... since we've been taking care of them so for long, doesn't that mean we too have that?" Ian points out.
