"I went with Fiona to look at the place on Ashland."
ivy was with Trevor , sat outside on the steps waiting for Ian to arrive in which he did looking very angry . Trevor told ivy everything that had been happening and why , Ian had every right to be angry but should've just looked for a new place instead of making a huge deal about it and the fact that recently he had been slowly pushing ivy away hurt.
"you what?" he scoffed
"its got good bones . I signed the lease."
"fuck , Trev." he sighed
"she's right about you not being yourself lately. this Ian the mountain you're making it out to be. are you taking care of yourself?"
"yes. I am taking my fucking meds. now get off my porch , dick."
"it is my job to do what is best for those kids. and that place on Ashland will make their lives a little bit better."
Ian then pushed past the two and went inside , locking the front door as he did so.
"I'm praying there's other people home or else there's no way of me getting in unless I climb through an open window." ivy joked
"help him. hes not himself ivy and your the only person who can ever really get through to him."
"yeah well slight issue hes been pushing me away the past couple of days while his fights with Fiona have been going on."
"just please do something to help him , he means good when he wants to help these kids but hes doing it the wrong way and its not really his place to decide on where they go."
"ill do all that I can Trevor. goodnight"
"goodnight ivy."
once Trevor had walked away ivy went around back and to the backdoor , luckily it was open so she didn't have to sleep in the cold as she wasn't going home to terry . she went upstairs to see ian laying there staring at his ceiling as he threw a ball up in the air .
"I'm taking my meds ivy , I am look." he passed her the mini bottle of pills . he was taking them but there were more in the bottle then there should be but he had been given enough shit today and she wasn't gonna give him any more
"you've been distant from me recently."
"no I haven't,"
"you have Ian , been with those kids more then me."
"look ivy before this turns to something it doesn't need to , leave."
"goodnight ."
"mm"
once she had shut the door she ran into a very worried looking Fiona , she asked if she could go in and speak to him and ivy nodded . she was prepared to hear chaos but Fiona eventually came downstairs with a smile on her face.
"it go well?"
"not amazingly but I think I've sorted it somehow between us."
"that's good well goodnight fi."
"goodnight ivy"
-------------
turns out ian didn't want the argument between him and Fiona to end , he continued it that morning but he didn't through a bucket of water on her which was a slight improvement but he was avoiding ivy even more now , his attention was all towards those kids and he was a hit on YouTube for going at a homophobic pastor who was doing conversion sessions . she would only ever see ian when he came home to sleep or eat or shower but then he would disappear for the day.
"penny for your thoughts,"
"I will need a free drink first please."
"fine , here." kev passed ivy a beer that he was saving for himself later but he said she could have it,
"ians been avoiding me for days now , all so he can go off with these kids who apparently mean a lot more then his bestfriend he has known since basically the day the ginger cunt was born."
"the homeless kids?"
"yeah its stupid."
"sounds stupid." Kermit added
"thanks Kermit."
"ive seen him on YouTube, so many people drooling over him." tommy sighed
"he taking his meds?" kevin asked
"he says he is but somethings off about him , I wanna help but hes difficult to get to at the moment."
"always good having teens come in and rant about their lives , we had carl in here earlier talking to us about his psycho girlfriend."
"Kassidi?"
tommy nodded
"you see I love trevor so much , hes ians boyfriend and the one who has the job of looking after those kids but I sometimes wish ian never met him."
"to me it sounds like your jealous . you have a little crush on ian?" kevin teased , ivy stared at him "im kidding but it sounds like you need a break , go join your brother in mexico."
"I wish I could . I need to find my sister she ran off with this boy and I haven't seen her since , maybe she can help me with getting ian back."
"he left?" kermits words slurred
"no Kermit , hes just not himself dipshit ."
"sorry"
"yous still with Svetlana?"
"hell no ivy , we left her a long time ago when she took over the alibi . we got her back though."
"what the alibi or Svetlana?"
"the alibi silly , I wouldn't want to be in a thrupple again."
"yeah it was weird seeing you guys all kiss , got used to it after a couple of drinks though." tommy laughed
"the whole thrupple thing is in the past now . we have svet under our control and have set new rules."
"I don't think I wanna hear these new rules . imma dash ill see you all later . nice to see you guys again." she pointed at Kermit and tommy who waved at her as she left the alibi.
ivy stoped at a few more places on the way home for some more drinks and then her drunk self wondered back to the Gallagher house and to her surprise ian wasn't home like always so she just passed out on the sofa .
-----------
"morning." ivy rubbed her head "got medicine I have a banging headache , I drank quite a bit yesterday."
"top cupboard." ian replied , his eyes were focused on the small laptop in front of him
"still on that bible shit?"
"yeah proving to my online haters that jesus is a fag hag @holymoses4562 just keeps writing abomination in all caps."
"tell @holymoses to eat a dick in all caps , hey whats going on? long night?" ivy asked carl who came downstairs with a frown on his face
"up late fighting with kassidi."
"she still giving you shit for going back to school?" ian asked
"she fucking worships me.im not gonna let that go and end up like everyone else in this family who cant keep a relationship."
"whoa." Ian pretend to sound hurt by holding his chest.
"who says we cant?" ivy added
"the fact I had to beat up your ex , proves my point."!
"got any more evaporated milk?" Debbie walked into the room with a beaming smile which was different,
"you gonna use that for Franny?"
"its cheaper then formula and I don't have day care today."
"do whatever debs"
"another gaycorcism's going down. gotta gather the kids." ian jumped from his seat and left
"how you holding up ivy?" Debbie asked
"what do you mean?"
"hes not talking to you as much since this whole gay jesus thing."
"im glad someone else noticed ."
"so how are you?"
"not good , went to alibi yesterday and got drunk off of anger and jealousy."
"what if you have a crush on ian?"carl suggested
"that's what kevin said and no!!"
