Young dumb and broke

  VICKI FELT A HEAVY WEIGHT ON TOP OF HER AS HER body began to wake itself up. She groaned lightly, trying to push whatever it was off so she could get up and out of bed. The girl figured it was Liam, who often crawled out of his crib and wound up in her bed but, this feeling was heavier and it wasn't budging at all.

"How the hell do you keep getting out—" Victoria paused as she opened her eyes and seen Alexei laying on her bare chest. She couldn't remember how in the hell she wound up there, or how long she'd been there in the first place. "Fuck, Fiona is going to kill me."

She closed her eyes in annoyance, at herself, of course.

"It's too early." The Milkovich boy reached upward and pressed a hand against the girls face as if it was an alarm clock. "Shut the fuck up."

"Alex, you need to get off me, it's the afternoon already and you are crushing my legs." Vicki did her best to try and wiggle out from under the heavy teen but, it was basically no use. "Now."

"You are too comfortable." He muttered lightly, his cheeks forming into a pout as his arms wrapped tighter around the girl.

"So is a fucking pillow you big baby." With all her force, she managed to push him off of her and move away from the bed without getting hurt. "I told you, I gotta go."

Victoria scrambled to find her clothes and quickly put them on, wanting to get out of there as quick as she could. Time and time again, she got herself into situations such as these to fill some void, and even she was getting sick of herself. She couldn't even imagine what it felt like to be her family, worrying when she didn't come home from whatever random hookup she was deciding to see that night.

There was a knock on the door a few moments later, and in came a few Milkovich cousins. They snickered upon seeing Vicki in the room, her hair a mess, and clothes disheveled. The Gallagher girl had a reputation, and she was sure living up to it in that moment.

Not that she enjoyed that fact.

"We uh, we need help at the store with something, you coming?" Iggy questioned as he rubbed the back of his neck, staring Victoria down.

Alexei looked at his cousins eyes towards the girl, and back to his cousin with a glare, "I'll be there when i'm fucking ready, you can't give a guy a minute, asshole? Get the fuck out!"

He angrily threw a pillow at the door that shut behind Iggy who was laughing on the other side.

"I gotta go but, you know the way out." Alex got up to his feet, threw on a shirt, and was out of the room quicker than he had woken up.

"You sure know how to pick em' Vick." The Gallagher girl mumbled to herself, slowly rolling her eyes. It was as if she had chosen a revolving door of fuck ups and assholes so that she would never have to experience any real love.

Cause she never got any real love as a kid.

As fast as she could Victoria got presentable enough to walk down the street without ridicule from her neighbors. She sighed as she walked through the Milkovich home and towards the front door. All the boys were still out in front, leaning on the car, and she dreaded walking past them.

"Let me have her for a round." Iggy spoke with a laugh, one of his cousins laughing and smacking his shoulder.

Vicki's jaw locked as she kept moving, wanting desperately not to hear the rest of the conversation. It had happened before, many times, everyone viewed her as the trashy neighborhood whore, and she couldn't exactly deny it. She just didn't know how to stop herself, and she didn't want to, unless there was moments like these.

"Go ahead, I don't care." Alexei replied dryly, not a care in the world. Yeah, times like these ones sucked, even if she knew all he wanted was to sleep with her.

Him acting like this? That wasn't okay.

VICKI KNEW SHE HAD TO GO SEE LIP AS SOON AS SHE got home. He always seemed to know how to help her, make her feel better when she was down, and right now? She was feeling well beyond down. She wondered if any part of her got so offended because she expected something more from Alexei, but she pushed it to the back of her mind because that just wasn't her.

Victoria Gallagher expects nothing from no one, she'd always say.

"Why does it look like you were crying?" Lip questioned as he looked upward towards his sister who had just walked into the room.

"I'm not, tried to wash my face and now it looks all weird." Vicki shrugged lightly and pointed at the gay porn magazine in her brothers hands. "You batting for the other team now too?"

She was masterful at changing the subject.

"Nope, going to have a talk with Ian, you up to come with?" The twin questioned, holding the magazine up with a smile.

"Lead the way." Victoria nodded as her brother walked past her, folding her arms closely against her chest. She followed him outside, and to the van where their red headed brother had been sitting for hours.

Vicki climbed in the van first, resting her body on top of the middle consul of the vehicle. As Lip came in and sat down, she gently rested her legs in his lap as their other brother did his best to ignore them completely. The eldest of them all smiled at that, before starting to flip through pages of the youngest magazine.

"How—... how can that be good for you? Or that? Or that?" Lip questioned as he flipped through, all while taking a cigarette out of his pocket.

Victoria dug through her pocket and found a lighter, reading her twins mind as she lit it for him.

"Seriously? How?" The boy continued with a teasing laugh.

"You know what's not funny? You guys, ever." Ian replied, reaching over his sister to grab his things back.

"Don't include me in that." Vicki ruffled her little brothers hair with a smile. "I'm fucking hilarious, little brother."

"Was there any before Kash?" Lip finally questioned, showing genuine interest in his brothers life.

He was trying to understand, and that was what was important.

"One." Ian replied with a slight nod, leaving his answer at that.

"Okay, so are you going to tell us who the hell it was?" Vicki raised a brow as her and her twin turned towards their brother curiously.

"I'm not telling either of you, okay?" The red headed Gallagher replied with a scoff, lightly shaking his head.

"Can you please name a time that either one of us let you down?" Lip asked, leaning forward as he blew a puff of smoke. "Go on, i'd like to hear it."

"It was a kid at school." Ian let out a sigh, avoiding eye contact with his siblings.

"Yeah?" Lip had his full attention on his brother, he just wanted him to feel comfortable.

"Was he cute?"Vicki asked, that's all she really cared about. If her brother was going to lose his virginity it should have at least been with someone good looking.

"All right, I guess it doesn't really matter, because he's long gone anyways but, Roger Spikey." Ian admitted with possibly one of the most innocent smiles the Gallagher girl had ever seen.

"This fucking older guys thing might be the result of daddy issues." Victoria snatched the cigarette out of Lip's hand and started to smoke.

"Roger Spikey? Fucking donkey-dick Roger Spikey? The original beef-meister?" Lip questioned, clearly amused. "Did he start that rumor?"

"Not a rumor." Ian replied with a smile on his face, Victoria pinched his cheek, she was a grandma in that way.

"Well, that was a bit gay. What you just did there with your eyebrows. You wanna watch that." Lip joked, the trio of siblings all feeling pretty good in that moment.

"Alright, fuck off." Ian shook his head, still smiling as widely as ever.

"Seriously, like.. up the ass?" Lip whispered. "Do you get used to that, I mean does someone get used to that ?I mean, the whole point of the digestive system is one way traffic, it just is."

"I don't know, ask Vick if she ever got used to it." Ian shrugged his shoulders, lightly, letting out a devious laugh.

"Wait, you-.. you too!?" Lip shook his head, placing his fingers on the bridge of his nose.

"I honestly don't know why you are so surprised." Vicki shrugged her shoulders.

The three of them all started to laugh, for no absolute reason except for in that moment, they loved each other. Maybe it was the pain they were all hiding, maybe it was because they were all tired, maybe they just wanted to laugh. Either way, the three of them knew they would always have each other's backs.

They heard noise inside, meaning everyone was up so, they got out of the van and ran upstairs. When they got there, everyone was laughing and handing out food. It was their first real breakfast in a long time.

"What's going on in here?" Vicki asked as they walked in.

"Made breakfast for everyone, take a plate." Steve, one of Fiona's new boyfriends said to her, she was shocked he was still around, probably because she hadn't been spending much time at home.

"Thanks, Stevie boy." Vick took a plate and took her seat at the table with a light smile.

That day, all the Gallagher's were happy but, each of them would go through things that would bring them down, especially Victoria.
