Ellie walked up the steps of her front porch, walking into her house and kicking her boots off near the pile of dirty and beaten up shoes. She walked upstairs, hearing noise come from the boys' room -- too nosey for her own good, she walked in finding Fiona and Lip. Fiona was in a new dress, price tag still dangling from her back, and her wet hair wrapped in a towel.

They both turned around at the new presence, Fiona smiling at her sister. Sometimes Fiona found herself staring at her siblings and trying to pick out the traits that they all shared; that made them look like they were related; she didn't find many. Fiona was the only one with dark brown hair and brown eyes, Ian had red hair and green eyes -- no other sibling had those traits, Lip had light brown hair and blue eyes, Carl mirroring him the most, and then Ellie was the only one with blonde hair and blue eyes. "Hey El." She then turned around to Lip. "Lip, can I borrow your deodorant?"

"I'm using Ian's." Lip said with a shrug, Fiona grabbing it and putting it on under her arms anyways. That's how it went in the Gallagher house, everyone shared everything with no complaints.

She was about to leave when she reached for the laundry sack, realizing she couldn't remember the last time it was touched. "If I stick this in the washer before I go out, will you keep an eye on it?"

He snatched the laundry sack back, Ellie giving him a confused look. Lip was lazy and hated doing anything besides getting high and fucking, so he jumped at the chance for people to do shit for him. "Do it tomorrow."

"Jesus, I'll do it." Ellie said snatching it back from him, her nose wrinkling at the awful smell in the boys' room. It truly smelt like three boys shared it, her not even being able to remember the last time someone cleaned in there, or even sprayed some febreeze for Christ's sake. "God, It smells awful in here."

"There's a T-shirt I need." Lip said snatching the laundry sack back from his sister and grabbing the shirt.

"You're like chimps, you three!" Fiona exclaimed teasingly, pointing her index finger at her younger brother. Fiona hated how it was three to a room, knowing what is was like when she was Ellie and Lip's age and how all she wanted was privacy.

"Fiona!" Their neighbor and Fiona's best friend Veronica shouted, appearing in the doorway. She looked great, short skirt, boots, low-cut blouse -- way too small, of course. "We need to go if we're gonna get a ride to the club."

"You look hot, V." Ellie told her neighbor, a smirk on her lips as she waggled her eyebrows suggestively.

"This, is why you're my favorite Gallagher." Veronica replied, kissing the blonde on the cheek, Ellie giggling at Fiona rolling her eyes.

"Five minutes." Fiona promised, Lip deftly retrieved his soiled boxers, only seconds before Ellie reclaimed the laundry sack.
