Gallavich one-shots

Christmas PART 1

Hope you enjoy this trash story that I rushed hahaha. Decided on a Christmas theme since it's almost Christmas. Thanks for reading!

It was a week before Christmas, and the Gallagher house was absolutely crazy. Everyone had been pulling extra shifts at their jobs the whole month so they had all been exhausted and grumpy, they were also trying to find the perfect gifts for the rest of the people in the house, and now, only a week before Christmas they were all scrambling around getting the house decorated. There were lights hung up and random decorations that had been collected or made throughout the years. There was tinsel, and fake snow on the windows and Lip and Ian were in the middle of setting up the large fake tree, which was currently being a pain in the ass. "where the hell does this thing go?" Lip asks while holding up a long branch that seemed to have no place, Ian just looks at it and shrugs. Just then there was a knock at the door "I've got it" Debbie yells and runs across the living room to the front door. She swings the door open to see Mandy Milkovich, Ian's best friend. She then steps to the side to let her in. "Hey Ian" she says while walking into the living room "hey" he grunts out, at this point he was completely wrapped in a long tangled up strand of lights that are supposed to be on the tree. Mandy just starts laughing at her best friend when there was suddenly a loud knock at the door. They all look to the door, just as Debbie is about to go answer it, the door suddenly swings open and a beat-up Mickey Milkovich, Mandy's brother, storms in. "what the hell happened to you Mickey?" his sister asks, clearly concerned. "nothing, I'm fine. Is it cool if I hang out here for a bit?" he asks, something seems off with the normally tough south side teen. Other than the fact that he was bloody and bruised a bit. Just then Lip speaks up "um, I don't know if that's—" "Yeah that's fine, you can hang out with Mandy and I" Ian cuts his brother off. He wasn't sure why said it was ok that Mickey stays, considering the older boy had always been an asshole to the redhead, but none the less, he agreed and even offered he hangs out with them. Lip gives Ian an odd look, Ian just attempts to shrug at him but then remembers he is still tangled up in the lights. Mickey then lets out a slight laugh "need a hand there Marry Poppins?" he asks, suddenly Ian can feel his face start to heat up realizing how stupid he probably looked as Lip and Mickey attempted to untangle him. It took them about 5 whole minutes to get him out "geez red, how did you get yourself that tangled?" Mickey asks while laughing at him.

Mickey and Ian knew of each other but they didn't really know each other. Mickey has seen Ian in school on the days he would actually show up. They had PE together and Mickey would often catch himself staring at the boy, but he figured it was out of jealousy. Mandy has told him about how Ian was in ROTC so he figured that's why he was so built, even for his age.

Mickey, Ian, and Mandy all started to head to the boys' room to hang out. Carl was at his girlfriends' house and Lip was about to go to work so they would have the room to themselves, so they decided to watch a movie. They all walk into the room and Ian glanced at Mickey "we should probably get you cleaned up first" he says to Mickey who then looks a little panicked. "no, no I'm good" he tells Ian as he sits on the bed since Mandy was already sitting in the little chair on the other side of the room "Mickey, you need to get some of that taken care of and by the looks of it the one on your cheek might need stitches. Ian's already learned a few things in ROTC so he can fix that right up. Can't you Ian?" Mandy states while looking from her brother to Ian. Ian just nods his head then starts walking to the bathroom "two against one Mick, let's go" Mickey lets out a very dramatic huff but follows Ian anyway. When they get into the bathroom Mickey sits on the edge of the tub while Ian pulls out the rather large first aid kit "why do you need so much shit in there?" Mickey asks "cause everyone in this house is either clumsy or stupid and gets themselves hurt constantly" Mickey just chuckles at that but suddenly hisses when Ian presses an alcohol pad to his split skin "fuck! You want to be careful?" Mickey says, it comes out more of a demand than a request "sorry" Ian just mumbles in return but continues to clean the wounds. "hey Mickey?" Ian finally speaks up "what?" Ian had to find out what happened to Mickey, he normally is the one giving the beatings, not taking them. "how did this happen?" he was sitting on the toilet seat across from Mickey, Mickey then looks from Ian to the ground "Nothing, just a misunderstanding" was all he would tell the redhead. He didn't want Ian to know that this was from his father, he got a little too drunk and was mad about something, so he took it out on the closest person which happened to be Mickey. He was just glad it wasn't Mandy because as much as him and his sister fight, he still cared about her and wanted to protect her as much as he could. The Milkovich boy wasn't as cold and uncaring as he tried to make people think and Ian could tell that much. "well, whoever did it is kind of an asshole" Ian says, trying to get Mickey to look at him rather than the floor. "why do you care anyway?" Mickey decides to ask snapping his eyes up to Ian. Ian was just about done cleaning up Mickeys face. "because I kind of like your face, and don't like seeing it all busted up" Ian doesn't know why he said it, but it just kind of came out. Before Mickey could have the chance to throw a punch his way Ian jumped up and said, "You're all set" and walked back to the bedroom as fast as he could. He knew Mickey wasn't gay, but he couldn't help it, he found the young south side thug attractive. Of course he had to be crushing on the homophobic straight guy. Ugh. "what the hell?" Mickey states out loud to himself. Did he just say he likes my face? Mickey thought to himself, he didn't know what to think. He isn't gay but he couldn't help finding himself attracted to his sisters' best friend. He felt like an idiot. If his dad found out he would literally kill him. After collecting himself Mickey goes back to the bedroom where Mandy and Ian were already sitting on Ian's bed watching a movie. "you gonna sit down Mick?" Ian asks while patting the empty spot on the bed to the right, with Mandy already to his left. Mickey went and sat down, he tried to sit as far away as possible but that was only about a foot away due to the small bed. Mandy had already fallen asleep since it was pretty late. They were watching some scary movie that Mickey couldn't remember the name of when suddenly something jumped from around the corner on the movie. Ian couldn't hide how much it actually scared him because he jumped pretty hard and ended up being pressed against Mickey's side. Thank god it was dark now because Mickey couldn't hide his blush, instead, he laughed at the red-headed boy that was now curled up to his side "you ok there red? Didn't think you scared so easily" he says, Ian was suddenly aware of how close they were and started stuttering "um... I... sorry I didn't" he says while starting to move away but before he could get the chance, Mickey wrapped an arm around the younger boys shoulder and pulled him back in. What am I doing? Mickey asks himself "I didn't say you had to move, you scare to easy, I'm sure you would end up right back in the same spot anyway" Ian didn't fight it, he knew he was bright red but he just laid his head back onto Mickey's chest and didn't say a word "by the way, I kind of like your face too" Mickey finally admits. Maybe he was gay, but he would deal with that later. For now, he just wanted to enjoy this. Ian didn't want to ruin the moment, so all he did was smile. Which was something he couldn't stop doing for the rest of that night.
