Black Abyss

Chapter 3

I woke up early in the morning hearing my phone's alarm sound. 6:45 am to be exact. I turn to my side to turn it off, I see Lip's back to me, just to annoy him instead of carefully climbing over him I climb on top of him, my legs on either side of his middle. I then reach for my phone, turn off the alarm but still don't get off of him, I just sit there playing with my phone until he starts whining.

"Get your fat ass off of me Ken, I wanna sleep. It's freaking Saturday, a day to wake up late" he says opening his eyes to look at me, he shifts to lay on his back so instead of me laying on his side middle I'm laying right on top of his stomach.

"Nope can do big bro, you gotta get up... We're going to work, 'member?" I said softly, smiling down at my brother. He smiles back at me.

"But it's Saturday" he whispers back.

"1st why are we whispering? 2nd I know its Saturday. I work Saturdays all day until 5:30 pm and get payed hella lot more if I do, so get up" I say whispering the first part and speaking normally the second.

"Shit I never knew... I always thought that you just went out with Scott and Stiles when you weren't here" he says finally sitting up, making me fall into his lap. It was normal for me to sit like this with Lip, we were both comfortable sitting like this whenever we sleep in each other's bed or when I was sad.

"Well now you know, now get up and get ready" I kissed his cheek before getting up and running to mine and Debbie's shared room to get ready myself.

----------------------------------------------

Half an hour later Lip and I finally walk through the animal clinic's back door, locking it after Lip had entered. I was laughing at him because once we had gotten off the 'L' he and I raced to the animal clinic since I was already 5 minutes late because Lip wanted to stop by Kash's store for a bag of chips as breakfast.

"Deaton I'm here" I yell through the clinic.

"Alright sweetheart, I told Scott to come and bring Stiles along later today" the vet came walking from the front desk to where he saw us both. "Oh, who's this?" he asked, he had seen him before and I had told him who he was but he has never met one of the Gallagher's in person.

Before I could answer Lip said. "Philip Gallagher, Ken's oldest brother. You can call me Lip though" and reached out his hand to shake Deaton's. To say I was shocked was an understatement, I mean none of my siblings were ever polite, much less the older ones.

"Oh, nice to finally meet you, young man. Ken has said a lot of things about you" Alan smiled.

"I hope all good. And also hope you don't mind me being here, I'll probably just go walk around and if I do stay here, I'll stay out of your way sir" Lip answered, again being polite.😱

"Don't worry about it, and yeah all good things" Deaton said before turning to me.

"Do you want me to tell Scott not to come?" he whispered to me making sure Lip didn't hear, I'm sure he still did.

"No no. I mean yes I still want him to come, he's coming with Stiles right?" I asked in a normal tone of voice, he nodded and smiled back.

"Alright then, I'll go text him. You can get started on whatever you want to work on first" he said walking out of the room and into his office.

----------------------------------------------------------

Me and Lip were currently playing with the cats while also putting food in their trays. I never knew how different my brother was around animals. I've always thought that he didn't like them, I was so wrong.

"Grace!" I hear my name being yelled before I'm being crushed in a pair of skinny yet strong arms, me hugging back right away knowing who was the owner of the arms without having to look at their face.

"Mischief" I breathed out, turning to look at my brother who had his eyebrows raised.

"Hey, how are you, your older brother um what's his name, um Philip, he didn't let me go see you the other night, I've missed you" he said still looking down at me, not noticing that Lip was indeed right there.

"Yeah about that, SCOTT GET YOUR TUSHY IN HERE" I yelled out to the other boy, who I had not noticed was also in the room behind Stiles.

"Calm down Ken I'm literally 2 feet away" he said his face scrunched up into a grimace because of his sensitive ears.

"Shit, sorry. Okay um about Lip not letting you come see me" I paused and then started hitting them both on the arm repeatedly. "I have told you both multiple times, do not come to the south side of town looking for me, and if you are, only if its important and you must, DONT be so suspicious and wear big hoddies and dark glasses. Are you two trying to get killed, because you were mistaken as someone bad?" I finished with one last slap to each of their heads.

"Ow okay our mistake, we just wanted to see you" Scott said pulling me into a hug.

"Well yeah dumbs me too, but thank god it was Lip that found you and not anyone else" I turned to look at Lip and saw him all the way to the other side of the room finishing feeding the cats.

"Hey how bout after work we go to my house and we invite our friends to come, we can have a small pool party?" Stiles said now standing next to me, looking too, at my brother.

"I dont think I can, I have to be with Lip whenever I'm out of the house, by Frank's rules" I said with a shrug.

"Oh c'mon babe it wouldn't be the first time you dont listen to Frank" he said slyly.

"I know it wouldnt be but I really dont want any trouble with him and apparently he has been coming home every night this week just to make sure I was home" I said.

"So how bout we sneak you out of the house?" Lip said coming towads us with his bad boy smirk.
