"hello?" ivy picked up the phone
"collect call from--"
"yes I accept the charges"
"ivy"
"shit hey ian whats up?"
"hey ivy , do you know where lip is? I couldn't get ahold of him? and you know I could really use some advice right now."
"I think hes probably still at the hospital."
"no way! is tami in labor?"
"fucking hell mickey didn't tell you? she had the baby! whole things kinda fucked up though she almost died . shes still in hospital. lips up shits creek trying to handle the newborn alone. its a hot mess"
"but the babys alright?"
the line then disconnected before ivy could answer
"stupid prison calls." she muttered before going back to cleaning the dirty dishes.
"you okay?" liam questioned
"yeah , ian called but we got cut off."
"is he okay?"
"never got to ask"
"when will he be home"
"im not sure buddy."
"oh alright then , cya ivy"
"bye liam"
------------
"incoming , move over," lip ordered as he sat on ivys legs , she was asleep in the alibi after drinking a bit only to be woken by fred and lip who for some reason had to sit on the table she was sat at.
"excuse me? theres a million other tables here? I was sleeping."
"you wanna see ian?"
that caught ivys attention so she sat up and let lip sit
"how?"
"mickey."
"whats he done?"
"snuck a phone in , but we cant be long."
"hes gonna give me shit for being drunk lip, especially around your new baby"
"that's exactly why I sat next to you. now hold fred"
then an unknown caller started to ring lip , he set his phone against an empty glass before answering it, ivy wasn't sure to why she was holding fred as she was wasted but she had a strong grip on the little man,
"hello?"
"hey ian"
"can I see the baby?"
"first off you can see your wasted sister holding the baby." he then panned the camera to ivy who was leaning against the wall while cuddling fred
"shit lip take the baby away from her!"
"whats she done?" she heard mickey ask through the screen
"Is drunk and holding lips kid" ian replied to him
"give the kid back ivy!" mickey yelled
"fuck you!"
"ivy watch your language near him!" ian exhaled
lip then panned the camera back to him before taking the baby slowly away from ivy so ian could see him
"hes right here. eight pounds , eight ounces. this is fred." lip smiled at ian who was also smiling at fred.
"fred . hey, hey! im your uncle ian." he waved at his phone "lip you have a son"
"yeah I do"
"hey buddy." ian awed
ivy sat back and watched , tears rolled down her face and lip noticed
"shes drunk and shes crying." he pointed at her and chuckled
"this is so emotional lip don't make fun of me!" she yelled
"voice down ivy ." veronica replied
"sorry v , I love you." her words slurred before she started to doze off "I miss you ian"
"I miss you to" was all she heard before she was knocked out against lip.
------------
"wake upppp" kevin was all up in ivys face which made her jump when she noticed him.
"shit . I slept here?"
"yup we locked up and left you here , nobody wanted to carry you."
"calling me heavy?" she rubbed her head from the banging headache she had
"hungover? need something?"
"yeah medicine please my head feels like it might explode."
"you were knock out last night." kevin replied as he placed a cup of water and medicine for her on the table "it was quite funny though when lip trusted you to hold his kid."
"he let me hold his kid while I was drunk?" her eyes widened when kev nodded "shit man I could've dropped him , I guess that shows that he trusts me though? even when drunk."
"mhm , you started crying while lip and ian were talking."
"ians out of prison?"
"no you spoke over the phone , mickey sorted something out so he had his phone for like 10 minutes to call and see the baby."
"I cried?"
"yep"
"how embarrassing . lip will forever hold that against me now."
kevin laughed and then left ivy to get up and get out but when she got home , the place was trashed , someone had clearly had some sort of party and just left the place . ivy was sure as hell that she was not gonna get the blame so she went upstairs and rested in ians bed.
--------
"wakey wakey." ian basically jumped on ivy who was asleep in the back seat . she groaned and hit him , she was sleeping a lot more then usual . 💀
"ian? wait what where am I?"
"prison bitch , picking me up."
"im dreaming , your not out for ages."
he then pinched her
"ah! cunt. wait oh my god ian!" she then sat up from laying in the back seat and hugged ian who was now sitting next to her. "lip did you seriously carry me out of my bed?"
"correction , I carried you out of ians bed , you missed tami coming home"
"Oh my god , is she good?"
"yeah. try this and tell me if you like it."
he then passed her one of the new things that were around which was a vape , she hit it and started coughing
"that is so strong. I like it" she smirked before going to use it a second time but ian snatched it and gave it back to lip "buzzkill , go back to prison"
"shut up , your the one who started crying on facetime because you missed me."
"stop that is so humiliating don't bring that up."
"crying is normal." he shrugged
"not when your wasted , its embarrassing."
"mickey said to tell you 'thanks for telling me' im not sure why"
"ohh I know why."
he was on about when ivy went to tell him about the baby.
"why?" ian asked
"none of your business. lip can I just say you drive like a granny."
"rude." he stood on the pedal making the car go fast down the empty street, ivy and ian yelled to stop but he didn't , he went faster
"I don't think tami wants to tell fred the story of how he lost his dad , auntie and uncle in a few years so slow the fuck down!" ivy screamed as she loosened her grip on ians arm.
"jesus ivy , my arm is bright red." he lifted his sleeve up , he was right she made it red "you have a strong ass grip."
"when im shitting myself , yeah I do."
"I think carls friend from works family is round ours since they are hiding ."
"why?" ian replied to lip
"don't wanna get deported."
"how many?"
"god knows"
"did you and mickey stab chester?" ivy asked out of the blue making lip look at her weirdly through the mirror and ian punch her thigh "ow you bitch , mickey told me about him"
"yes we stabbed chester but its not like I was kept in for longer for it?"
"asshole why would you do that?"
"we needed a break."
"well you have one now. hes in prison youre out here"
"im aware but I think hes gonna fuck random people in there"
"of course he is , it wont mean shit to him ian you don't gotta worry"
"yeah well I am worrying."
"well don't."
"you guys wanna hit starbucks before we head back?" lip asked the two who nodded. "alright , starbucks it is."
"welcome home ian." ivy grinned
