The following day went normally, I managed to keep my job at Patsy's even though I had the incident with my aunt and caused a whole scene in the middle of the diner. I was doing everything as I normally would, waitressing and dishes and what not. Once my shift ended I went home to finally get off my feet and relax. Once inside I went straight onto the couch, letting out a loud sigh as I leaned my head back. The house was quiet, I wasn't really sure where everyone was, but then the door opened and Ian and Mickey walked into the house, "Hey you two," I said as I looked over my shoulder at the pair.
"Hey, Mabel," Ian said to me, a goofy smile on his face, "We're going on a date!" I was shocked that Mickey was actually willing to do that since he was just now getting used to his own sexuality.
Mickey smiled and nodded, "Fuck yeah we are!" He said to me.
Sammi then walked out of the kitchen once she heard the two of them, I furrowed my brow at her, confused to why she was even still hear, "Listen, Ian," She started to speak, a sorrowful look on her face, "I want you to know you are a really good kid with a really big heart and you have some hard times ahead of you, but, you're going to do great..." I sat up slowly as I listened to her, confused to what she was getting at.
"Okay?" He said at last, clearing out the silence that was in the room, not breaking eye contact with her.
Sammi stood in the same spot for what felt like ages, then she cleared her throat, "Gentleman," She said, then a pair of military officers walked out, "This is Ian Gallagher," She looked at Mickey after she said this, "I think they're ready to take him to jail now," Were the last words out of her mouth before the two men went to restrain Ian.
I pushed myself off the couch, "What the fuck!" I shouted at Sammi, "What the fuck, Sammi?" She stood there, looking as if she did no wrong.
Ian gave Sammi a sad look, "Why, Sammi?" He asked her quietly as the men continued to try to restrain him, "Get off of me!" He argued with the officers, struggling to get away from them, "Get off me you son of a bitch!"
"Get off of him!" I shouted to them, running over to Ian, "Get the fuck off of him!" I reached out but the officers pulled a gun on Mickey and I, I stood there, frozen in fear for that moment, face to face with the barrel of a gun.
"Do not move," The officer said to us, Mickey stood next to me, frozen and I stood there just as still as he was, trying to process what the fuck was going on.
"Fuck."
"Behind your back!"
"You can't just drag him out of his fucking house!" Mickey shouted at them as they drug Ian out of the front door, I ran after them, seeing Fiona walking up the sidewalk as it was all unfolding, her eyes widening as she saw the officers.
"He's sick!" I shouted at the officers as I followed them, "He's fucking sick, you stupid bastards!"
"What the fuck is going on?" Fiona asked in a panic once she got closer to the situation, Mickey and I were standing at the end of the stairs watching as Ian was shoved into a police car, I continued to scream at the officers to let him go, but there was no stopping them.
Mickey was more upset than anything at the moment, he wasn't shouting, "Where are you taking him?" He asked the officers in a shaky voice.
The officers didn't respond, "Tell us where the fuck you're taking him!" My throat was raw from the screaming now, the officers still said nothing to us as they got into their vehicle, I watched as it drove off. My body was numb as I stood there.
"Ian!" Fiona shouted as she watched Ian be taken away, I slowly turned around, seeing Sammi standing at the top of the stairs, looking more than proud of herself at the moment.
"It's a shame when someone you love gets taken away, isn't it?" She asked us, I took in a deep, shaky breath, staring at her, I put my hair up slowly with my shaky hands and Fiona stared at me as I did so.
"Whatever you do, don't stop me," I said to Fiona before I went up the stairs and went through the movements of just attacking Sammi, going for her face, punching and scratching at her, pulling her hair until she fell backwards down the stairs to the bottom of them, landing on the concrete, Fiona let out a gasp as the scene unfolded. Sammi screamed at me and went to swing back at me, I managed to land punches and scratches as I swung my arms at her. I kept screaming at her until my voice went hoarse and I had nothing left in me. The neighbors eventually came out to see what was going on and someone called the cops to the scene, I had no fight left in me so I willingly went with them. My arms were bruised up and my knees were scraped from the concrete, my jeans ripped up at the knees.
Once I got my one call, I used it to call Lip. "Hello?" His voice was so soothing to hear, it managed to calm my nerves somewhat.
"Hi, little bit of a problem," I laughed quietly, knowing that he knew I was arrested since it was a collect call from the jail.
"You got arrested?"
"Well, Sammi got Ian arrested, I beat the shit out of her and, well, I'm the only one who got arrested since I got her attacked and she's a model citizen since she turned someone in... Anyway, can you come pick me up? She's not pressing charges, bet the bitch is scared I would go further than just fucking her face up."
"Uh... Okay, yeah, do you want me to send Fiona?"
"I'll wait for you, Fiona has work in the morning and is probably already too stressed about the Ian situation..."
"Yeah, alright, um, I'll come, it shouldn't take too long, hold tight."
