Lovely

"Sorry I'm late"

It was an early morning for one Ian Gallagher. Today him and Carl where finally going home, after about a whole month they were stuck there at the Ames house . Fiona had Debbie, Lip, and Liam come home a lot sooner but the other two had to stay with the foster mom's a lot longer. Ian finally talked them out of not adopting them which was harder then it seemed.

Both boys said their goodbyes to the foster moms and ran into Fiona's arms. "Hey guys!" Fiona said while holding them tightly. "You guys ready?" She asked with a big smile. "Let's go home" Carl said while still hugging his sister. Ian looked around and said "No Mickey?" All three began to walk towards the cross walk. "No, uh, I told him you were getting out today. Maybe he forgot" Fiona said while patting his back. Ian just looked down as they continued to walk to the El.

Mickey woke up in the late afternoon. "Shit" he yelled while jumping out of bed. "Fuck" he said while running into his bathroom. He was a mess, his hair was messy, he looked like he hadn't slept in days, and there was something on his neck. "The fuck?" He said while rubbing it. "Jesus" he whispered out. He then splashed some water onto his face and brushed his teeth. While looking in the mirror he could see movement coming from his bed, someone was under his covers. He spit into the sink and wiped his mouth. He walked over to the bed and lifted the sheets. "Shit" he whispered and walked away still looking at the bed. Joey.

"Are you positive you told Mickey I was getting out?" Ian asked again. Fiona put the cake into the oven and slammed it. " Yes Ian. I already told you." She said sounding slightly annoyed. "Come on go upstairs get ready for bed. School tomorrow." Ian listened and went upstairs. He got into his room and laid on his bed. He reached over to his phone and sent Mickey another text.
Ian: hey me again, I'm home , miss you
He threw his phone back on the drawer and continued to lay there. Nothing. Finally he got up and went to the bathroom. "Fucking Mickey" he said while slamming the door.

"Joey get up man, you slept all damn day" Mickey said while throwing a pillow at his head. "The fuck Milcovich, tryna sleep." He said while peeking his head out. "The fucks on your neck." He asked while laughing. "I don't know you tell me." He said while pointing at it. "Settle down cupcake, it wasn't me." Joey said while getting up. To Mickey's surprise he was still fully clothed. "Look me and Mandy hung out last night for some bullshit project. We drank a little too much and I crashed out. She told me to sleep in here, she knows we are best friends so I did", Joey explained while putting his shoes on. "That looks more like a bruise then a hickey. See it's turning green not pink, dumb ass", Joey teased while walking out. "Peace" Joey yelled. "Fuck" Mickey whispered. He looked into the mirror and could tell what Joey was talking about. He did feel sore and his neck did hurt. He remembers hanging with Svet the night before. "Aww shit" he yelled again while running to his jacket. Once again finding glitter in his pocket. "Fucking Svet. Where the hell is my damn phone" he yelled annoyed.

"Hey" a voice said outside Ian's door. It was Lip. "No Mickey, thought you two would be fucking like bunnies when you got back" Lip teased. " I mean yeah I wanted to but he's not texting me back" Ian said still looking at the ceiling. "Look Ian, everything's good ,alright. I'm sure he just got caught up with shit. He went back to school last month. He retained so I'm sure you'll see him tomorrow with you being a junior now" Lip said while handing him a cigarette. "Thanks" Ian said while talking a long inhale. "Don't stress to much, he always comes back" Lip said while leaving the room.

"Mandy have you seen my phone?" Mickey yelled. "I have it dick breath" she yelled back. Mickey walked into her room and stood by the door. "What?" She asked. "Dumb bitch the phone" he said while holding his hand out. "Jesus why you so crabby Mickey, that time of the month." She teased while throwing the phone. "Thanks" he grunted back. He turned around and stopped half way out the door. "Why did you have my phone" he asked. She looked at him and laughed. "Svet came by earlier while you were talking to Joey. Said Ian keeps texting." She said while giving a small smile. "Yeah alright, I'm gonna head over there now, probably gonna be in tough shit when I get there" he said while walking up to her. She looked at him and hugged him. "Alright asshole see you tomorrow" she asked while shoving him away. "Yup goodnight small tits" he said while giving her the finger and walking out.

Ian still laid there looking at that damn ceiling, by now he could find out every crack on the wall. He looked to his clock 1:03 am. "Fuck" he whispered while rubbing his face. No Mickey tonight or maybe ever he thought. He rubbed his eyes and finally made himself comfortable. He rolled over to the wall. A couple minutes went by and now he was finally dozing off until he heard footsteps coming up the stairs. He laid there wide eyed now waiting. He heard the door crept and he laid still. It was him. He knew it was him. He could tell by the way the room filled with his cologne and how the room got warmer. "Hey" he heard him say. Ian rolled over and looked up to see Mickey standing there. He said nothing but just stared at him. Mickey looked sad like he was nervous. "Sorry I'm late" Mickey finally said breaking the long silence. Ian just stared and Mickey walked closer to the bed taking off his shoes and jacket. Ian moved over and Made room for Mickey to lay down. They stared into each other's eyes like they were the most beautiful eyes they ever seen. Mickey laid on his side while Ian laid on his back. Mickey caressed his hair and cheek. Mickey sat up a bit and kissed Ian on his forehead and continued holding the side of Ian's head. Mickey finally relaxed and pulled the covers both of over them. "I knew you'd come" Ian said while rolling on top of him. "C'mere" he said while kissing Mickey on the lips making Mickey laugh and kiss him back. "You're going down Gallagher" he whispered while flipping Ian over.
