(chapter 2) PILOT
❝you don't know us fiona!❞
"REALLY? AN OLD LADY on the train?" fiona asks the oldest gallagher boys
"oh yeah, the doors were closing on her walker. lip barely got his foot in, in time to stop-" ian was explaining but was cut off by lip screaming "ow! jesus fiona" he yelps
"i can't remember whether that's good or bad." she says back to him
ian explained the whole thing to molly when they got home after being scolded by her. karen jackson was giving him a blow job when her dad caught them and chased them out of the house. lip jumped out of the second story window and busted his ankle.
"more likely you two jumped the turnstiles and he twisted it trying to outrun the transit cops." fiona exclaims accusingly
"whatever they did was clearly idiotic," molly chimes in
"thanks mel," lip replies sarcastically
"no. always elevate extremities," veronica scolds after walking in. "move before you give him a fucking embolism. you ok lip?"
"please don't touch it," he pleads
"okay. wiggle your toes" veronica tells lip. as he does it he grunts in pain. "go to my house, top of the freezer. two ice packs. second cupboard above the sink, iquid ibuprofen, freeze spray, ace bandages." veronica tells ian
"should we get it x-rayed?" fiona worriedly askes
"no, you'll be in the ER forever. for what? 'sub-metatarsal hematoma' tell us something we didn't know five hours ago. fuck off" she replies "my bedroom, top of the TV"
"yeah," ian says
"pack of smokes and the lighter. okay." veronica tells him
right as he starts walking out someone pound on the front door
"shit! i'm not here, i'm not here!" lip shouts hiding under the blanket
"you don't know us fiona" ian shoves molly out of the way to go hide under the bed
"for fucks sake guys" molly sighs
"oh what have you done? what have you done!?" she yells angrily before walking out being followed by gabby and carl.
since fiona hadn't returned upstairs yet they decided to go down. molly was helping lip limp down the stairs
"alright v said to tell you to use ice and advil for the pain. oh and keep your weight off of it" molly tells him
"yeah got it" he smiles at her
when they walked down there was a laundry machine sitting in the middle of the kitchen.
"i thought you were broke" veronica acknowledged
"that's what i said" ian responded
"these were in the washer" fiona says excitedly handing veronica a bouquet of flowers.
"steve?" she questions looking at who sent them "no,"
"yeah, uh huh" fiona nods her head
"who's steve?" veronica asks
"the other night"
"no" veronica says in realization
"i know!"
"damn i want my future boyfriend to buy me a washing machine" molly comments
"you don't need a laundry machine" lip scoffs
"yeah but what if i did" she says
"you're such a dumbass" he shakes his head
"says the one who has a sprained ankle because of karen jackson" she snorts
"shut up"
...
there was a knock on the door mid afteroon at the thrope house from the one and only lip.
"hey," molly said after answering the door "what are you doing here?"
"wanna walk to kash and grab with me? i gotta return kashs tools," lip asks
"sure i got nothing to do," she says going to grab her coat
fast forward 20 minute they were walking around the store looking for kash.
"yo kash," lip calls
"all right, you stack the butter. i'll do the snacks," kash tells ian walking out of the back room. "oh jesus christ lip, molly,"
"sorry kash" she says
"yeah sorry. sorry kash. i just uh thanks for the tools," lip thanks him
"anytime as long as i get them back" kash points out
"right" lip chuckles.
"alright let's go." molly says about to walk out before she notices lip staring at kash and ian. "lip?"
"you must be joking." lip scoffs "what, you're fucking him?"
"oh shit," molly says covering her mouth with her hand.
"fuck," lip drops the tools and shoves past them to walk out. molly follows after
"lip! wait," molly shouts trying to catch up to lip who's sped walking out "i think you're overreacting a little"
"overreacting? he's fucking a married man," lip exclaims
"you didn't have to mention it like that though," she tells him "just promise me you'll calmly talk to him about it later?"
"yeah sure whatever" he tells her
"you can be a real ass sometimes you know" she responds
"so can you" he laughs
...
the next morning when molly walked over to the gallaghers house it was very loud. "morning gallaghers!" when she walked in the kitchen she saw steve the guy from the other night was over making breakfast for everyone
"that's hot!" steve yelps giving the burning dish to debbie
"don't drop it. please don't drop it. please don't drop it. ahh!" lip says to debbie while ian shakes her making her almost drop it
"oh my god. oh my god. oh my god"
"whoa what's going on," molly laughs walking into the kitchen
"fionas new boyfriend steve is making us food," lip tells her as they sit down. "the sausage is great though you should try it he says giving her a plate with food.
"thanks," she smiles
"haven't had eggs in a while" debbie mentioned.
"me either. i'm excited," gabby chimes in
"what's all this?" fiona asks coming down the stairs
"debbies the only person i know who wakes up earlier than i do. and i told her i never eat breakfast but she said it's her favorite meal. and i thought since it her birthday-" steve starts to explain but then gets a bunch of complants because it isn't debbies birthday
"no it's not" fiona laughs
"its not her birthday" carl says
"her birthday isn't for a few months," gabby comments
"i never said it was, i said i wished it was," debbie tells them
"oh right, she said she wished it was. sorry, deb i totally misheard that. perforated eardrum on the right" steve points at his ear
"fifteen minutes before school tops," fiona exclaims
"yeah yeah yeah" lip replies
"ian, lip, molly, dishes soon as you're done" fiona tells the three teens. molly nods at her then takes a pancake from the dish.
"debbie, carl, gabs, you forgot to take the trash out," fiona says
"oops i knew debbie forgot something" gabby giggles
"hey, it's my birthday!" debbie retorts
"it literally isn't" gabby mumbles with food in her mouth as debbie elbows her
steve watched everyone astonished. little did he know what he got himself into.
