Where are the knives? Carl!

Aurora pov

I was laying on the couch at the Gallagher's house, dressed in Lips sweatpants and one of Ian's shirt we were watching tv, Lip had to call some of the people he took the test for since he got caught

"Hey, um... Listen, Morgan, its Lip. We gotta talk. I got some bad news regarding your SAT scores. They're invalidating your score. Ill go into more detail when i speak with you. Sorry to leave this on your phone. All right. Okay. Hit me back"

Someone knocked on the door Debbie glanced over at Carl, Ian and I, i shrugged smiling

She groaned a little before placing her coupons down and going to answer the door, "Hey, I'm here for Lip to pay him the balance for the SAT test" I recognized as Tire as i leaned over the couch and looked at him

"Tire" Lip said coming into the living room and looking at me, "Lip, my man. They invalidated my score!" he yelled going to hit Lip

"I was gonna call you!" he yelled ducking under his arm, "Ill get a six on this test"

"You get at least 200 for spelling your name" I spoke up, "Shit. Wait, wait, wait. I can fix this, all right!" Lip yelled running away from Tire who was chasing him

"I wont be able to play ball in college!" Tire yelled as Lip ran up the stairs, I shrugged turning back around and going to watch tv

"You'll go straight to the pros!" Lip yelled as we heard running, yelling and stuff being thrown

"Should we go up there?" I asked after hearing Lip grunt assuming he was thrown into something, "Yeah" Ian nodded as we all got up and ran up the stairs Carl grabbing the killing back on the way

"No, no, no, please!" We heard Lip yelling, "You think you'll live if i drop you on your head? I dont"

"Lip!" I yelled seeing Tire dangling Lip out of the window by his feet, "Shit!" Ian yelled as we tried to pull Tire away but he pushed us back, "Back off or ill throw the both of you out too!"

"Let him go!" Carl yelled coming into the room with the bat raised, "Get my brother back or the kid swings the bat" Ian said as Tire nodded, "Okay, okay!"

"Now!"

"Keep your shit straight. Ill pull him in" Tire said as Carl didnt drop the bat, "Now. Come on" I said as Tire pulled him back in, Fiona and Steve running into the room

"What the hell is going on?"

"Carl's got it covered" Ian said glancing at her before looking back, "I was just joking. Okay? Okay?" Tire smiled looking between all of us when all the sudden Carl swung the bat right into Tire's knee as everyone yelled

"Got semolina, seven-grain and whole wheat" Fiona called coming into the house, "You work at a bakery and all you stole was bread?" V asked not looking at her as she was cutting Debbie's hair

"Where are the crullers and turnovers?" V added as i came out of the bathroom dressed in a white long sleeve top, a white jean skirt, and white heeled boots

"We want sugar" Debbie and I said at the same time as i sat at the counter, "Yeah? Too bad. Free toast for a week. Who wants a sandwich?" Fiona asked as Steve came down the stairs

"Mine with the crust off. How was your wake-and-bake?" he smiled kissing her, "Two a.m start. I dont know how Lucia does it" she sighed

"Hey, i got a surprise for you" Steve smiled at her, "Gotta do something about that toilet" V spoke up

"What's wring with is?"

"Nothing if you dont mind squatting over the seat like a coolie so your ass doesn't touch the water" I explained

"Did you try and fix it?" she asked looking between us, "Hell, no. We just got our nails done" V smiled as we put our hands out to show her

"I got us a room at the Delacroix tonight" Steve smiled at Fiona as she put a sweater on, "Ha, ha. Good for you. Who you gonna take? Sounds nice"

"Where are the knives? Carl!"

"Uh, i gotta go meet up with Lip, Mandy and Ian so im gonna head out" I smiled grabbing my bag, "No school for you today?" Fiona asked as i shook my head

"Half day, im sick" I fake coughed before leaving

"Hi, hi!" I smiled as Lip, Ian and Mandy walked over to me, "Gotta love these half-days" Ian smiled as Lip put his arm around my waist, "You look pretty" he smiled kissing my forehead

"Good thing public education is broke" Mandy laughed a little, "Yeah, waste of time anyway. Only thing those people are equipped to teach is how to live with crippling disappointment"

"Hey, wanna catch a movie later? Brandy can sneak us in" Mandy asked looking at Ian, "Cant. Gotta be at work by 3"

"Nice jacket Kash bought you, by the way" Lip said looking at Ian's coat, "Thanks"

"Yeah. Tell Kash ill take it in the ass if it gets me free stuff" Mandy said looking at him as i laughed a little, "hey!" Someone called as we turned to look at some dude standing by a truck

"Hey, yeah, im talking to you" he said coming over to us, "yeah?"

"You got a phone?" he asked pointing at Lip, "What, your truck broke down?" Lip asked looking at the truck

"No, genius, i like standing in a shitty neighborhood with my dick in my hands" he scoffed, "Im already two hours late on this load. I try to take one shortcut, this is what i get. My goddamn kid drained my phone playing "Doodle Jump" My goddamn wife took my charger. Listen, ill give you 5 bucks if you let me use your phone. J-just one call"

"Oh, we dont have a phone" I spoke up, "Our dad says not till we're 18" Lip added as i moved his hand off of my waist

"Um, but you know what? There's a bar, i think, about 10 blocks that way. What's it called?"

"Uh, i think O'Flaherty's" I lied smiling, "Tell them your family's from County Cork" Lip added nodding

"Ten blocks?" the guy asked in disbelief, "Maybe five. Straight shot" Ian added

The guy sighed before taking $5 from his pocket, "This is yours if you keep an eye on the truck"

"Five bucks?" I questioned smiling, "Oh, cool. Thanks, mister"

"Hey. Hey. Make srue no one gets near it" He said walking away as we nodded watching him leave, the second he left i took my phone from my bra and gave it to Lip

"Yo, Kev. Forty-third and Halsted. Bring a crowbar" he said before putting my phone back in my bra as i slapped his hand, he smiled before turning as we went to the back of the truck
