"dear desperado!"

☆

"you made him leave! Again, god, man!" the poor fourteen year old yelled.

her mother had brought another man to the house that she shared with her husband and two daughters. her eldest was on the verge of running away while her youngest was at a sleepover.

"where are you going, Nevaeh?" the sorry excuse of a mother sobbed. "anywhere, but here," the young girl stormed out.

Nevaeh didn't know where she was going, but for the time being, she couldn't be there. her shaky hands pulled out her phone to dial her best friend, Carolina's number.

"hey, Carol. i need a place to stay," the scared girl spoke, walking down the snowy street.

"look, you know i would love to help you, but i can't let you stay here again. i'm sorry," Carol spoke, sounding as if she just woke up. that would make sense because it was about 1 AM.

Nevaeh hung up her phone, angrily. she had absolutely nowhere to go, she was fucked. she sat in front of some store, crying.

"hey, you okay?" a male voice spoke to her. she glanced up through the blurry sheet of tears. "what do you want?" she mumbled. "where are your parents?" a red head asked. "i ran away," she muttered, holding onto her bag tight.

"look, it's winter and it's cold. how about you stay with me and my family for the night?" "i don't even know your name."

"right, i'm Ian Gallagher," the redhead outstretched his hand. "Nevaeh Harlington," she shook his hand. he helped her to her feet and walked alongside her.

"why'd you run away?" "mom's a cheater, dad left for the third time." he nodded,"mom left, i don't know my real dad. but, the dad i do have is an alcoholic." she nodded, silently. "we both have fucked up families, i guess," she chuckled.

they paused in front of a ragedy looking house,"welcome to the Gallagher home." the girl furrowed her brows while walking up the stairs. Ian opened the door for her. "Fi? Lip?" Ian called up the stairs.

"god, Ian! it's 1 am!" an older woman complained. Ian had woken her and Debbie up. "who's that?" a younger girl closer to Nevaeh's age questioned.

"this is Nevaeh, she's a stray," Ian introduced her. the young girl rolled her eyes,"i'm not a stray."

"you know he's gay, right? so, you can't have sex with him," the other teen girl scoffed.

"Debs!" Fiona exclaimed,"i'm so sorry. i'm Fiona and that's Debbie." she waved with a small fake smile.

"um, where am i sleeping?" Nevaeh asked.

"Debbie's-," Fiona started before being interrupted. "Hell no!" Debbie yelled. "sh, well then, my room, the couch, or Ian's bed."

"you take my bed, i'll sleep on the couch," Ian offered the drowsy girl. she simply nodded and rubbed her eyes while yawning.

"come on, i'll show you," Fiona told the girl.

Nevaeh walked behind her and stopped in front of a door with caution tape on it.

"there's two other boys in there, but they won't bother you."

"thanks for letting me stay," Nevaeh smiled for the first time since she left home. Fiona nodded and walked to her room.

she entered Ian's shared room and laid down in the only empty bed. she cried herself to sleep, careful to not wake anyone up.

☆NEXT MORNING☆

Carl woke up from his sleep shortly before Lip did. he looked over to Ian's bed to see a random black girl.

"what the fuck!" the young boy screamed.

his older brother woke up and immediately saw the problem.

the girl's eyes fluttered open,"what's going on?"
"who are you?"the oldest brother asked. "Nevaeh. Ian brought me here and Fiona let me stay," the now frightened girl answered.

the two boys nod and Lip goes downstairs.

"how old are you?" Carl asked the girl. "14, you?" "14."

she nodded and got out of Ian's bed. "are you staying for awhile?" Carl asked. "maybe, a week at most. i'm just punishing my mom," Nevaeh answered.

she grabbed some clothes out of her backpack and was about to change when she realized there was still a boy in the room. she shrugged and turned her back to him. Carl's eyes were burning holes into her back while she changed.

"are you coming?" the girl asked, half-way out the door. Carl rolled out of his bed and followed the girl.

"hi, Nevaeh," Ian smiled. "thanks for the bed," Nevaeh smiled back,"you can have it back tonight." "why? are you leaving?" Fiona questioned. "if you want me to," Nevaeh said. "you can stay as long as you want," Ian reassured. "okay."

"have you met everyone?" Fiona asked, putting a plate of eggs in front of her. "n-no," she stuttered, thinking,"well, i met them, i just didn't get names." "that's Debbie, Lip, Carl, and Liam. you've already met me and Ian," she pointed out everyone while she named them. "meet the Gallaghers."
