Mess // Carl Gallagher (COMPLETED)

12

"So everyone's back where it all began, huh" Mandy asked as Mickey nodded. "Except you. We could've really done with you around when she was in the can. Besides a postcard every time you went someplace new" Mickey announced as they sat in the Alibi for the annual Christmas Day party. The three Milkoviches sat at a table while their partners mingled. "I was living like you should all be. Mike called and said you got your GED in prison. You should apply to college or something. Maybe nursing or something. You're too good to stay here Miss" Mandy said while nudging her but she was so focused on staring at Bianca dancing with her daughter.

"What's that skanks problem" Mandy asked confused as Missy smirked. "I just need her gone then I can be happy" she said before knocking back the end of her beer as Mandy nodded. "Leave it to me" she joked, Missy took it as a joke but Mandy was loyal, she was dead serious

Missy danced into Mike in the middle of the room before wrapping her arms around him. "You're really drunk" he said while trying to wrestle the bottle out of her hands. "You're no fun" she scolded as he nodded. "Missy. We really need to talk" he began but she ignored him and ordered a round of shots. She'd been drinking since she'd gotten there and was in a right state at this point of the night. She downed them before dancing over to Carl who sat on a stool alone.

"Carl, Carl, Carl" she said before wrapping her arm around him and sitting on his lap. "What are you doing" he said while wrapping his arms around her waist so she wouldn't fall backwards since she could barely hold herself up. "You are right. I'm not happy and this life isn't what I want" she announced as a smile crept across his face. "Right because that's what I wanted to talk about" he said but she shook her head. "I don't want to talk" she said while putting her finger over his lips. "I just needed to tell you" she finished before booping his nose, getting up and dancing over to the stereo Veronica had placed on the bar to change the song. Mike was quick to take her place talking to Carl but her eyes were fixated on Bianca and Danielle so she ran over and picked her daughter up and began spinning her around.

"We are going to be happy okay. I'm sure of it. Good is coming" she whispered as the girl dressed as Sleeping Beauty cupped her mother's face. "Do you understand, it's going to be you and me now" she said excited as the girl shrieked and wrapped her arms around her mother, showing her she understood exactly what she meant. In Missy's head she was in a movie spinning her daughter around but in reality she was stumbling around the bar and everyone was concerned about her dropping her.

"Miss. Missy. You've had enough. Come on" Mike shouted trying to get her attention but in the end he had to grab her to stop her from stumbling. Mandy came over and took Danielle so Mike cupped Missy's face. "Are you in pain from last night ? Is that what this is ?" He whispered as she shook her head and all of a sudden she felt nauseous. "No I'm fine" she said trying to break out of his grip but he wouldn't let her. "I think we should get you home" he said slowly but she threw herself as him and covered her mouth. "I'm going to puke" she whispered before gagging as he nodded before grabbing her arms in attempts to bring her to the bathroom.

"Very classy Missy" Bianca shouted before slowly clapping as Missy went to swing at her but Mike was focused on getting her to the bathroom. She was hunched over the toilet throwing up every meal she'd ever eaten as Mike held back her hair. "I'm sorry" she whispered as tears began streaming down her face. "For what, why are you sorry" he asked confused as she sighed before sitting back against the wall. "For not loving you" she whispered as she kept crying. "Love is a strong word, it takes time. I've just always loved you so it didn't take much thinking about" he said through a smile as she shook her head.

"You don't understand. I don't love you at all. I don't think I'll ever love you the way you love me" she slurred while slamming her head against the cubicle door as he stood up. "I'm going to get you some water" he whispered before running out of bathroom. Her head was practically inside the toilet bowl as she kept crying. She heard the door open so she smiled. "That was quick" she joked before sitting up to see Carl standing infront of her.

"Yanno I've known you a long time. I've seen you give birth, I've seen you bleeding out after fist fights. But this, this tops it as your ugliest moment" he joked as she forced herself to stand up. "Fuck you" she spat before walking over to the sink to wash her face but she ended up just grabbing the sink to keep her balance. "I'm kidding" he said as he followed her over with a smile. "Did you mean what you said, about not being happy with this life" he said as she took a step towards him and wrapped her arms around him to keep herself up so he grabbed her waist to keep her from falling.

"I love you" she whispered as the biggest smile crept across his face. "I love you and I always have and I always will and I want to spend the rest of my life with you" she whispered as she looked him right in the eye and at that moment everything fell into place so she kissed him. It was passionate, the pair had wanted to kiss each other for years so they took full as advantage of it. They were both really drunk and didn't even think about the face that they were cheating on their partners. "Let's get out of here" Carl whispered before pecking her lips as she nodded before grabbing his hand and walking into the main bar.

Terry had walked in with her cousins and uncles and began smashing up the bar since he had a mad urge to spend Christmas with his family and they were nowhere to be found. They snuck passed the crowd of people and danced through the streets singing and kissing eachother like it was never going to happen again. They forgot that they were parents and had responsibilities they felt 16 again because they'd missed out on years of childhood due to prison. They were beyond happy unaware that everything was going to crash the next morning.
