22 Season 1 (CH22):

They went home when it started to get dark, when they got there Debbie asked Frank to read a story to her, Lip ignored him and kept walking towards the stairs. Liam was already asleep by the time they got there, Carl only glanced at the man for a moment before going to do his homework, it was a Saturday but he hadn't finished it yet.

Walking into the kitchen he first went down to his room to grab his backpack before heading back upstairs, sitting at the counter he texted Sammy some while starting his homework. He still needed to finish up his project so that he could get it out of the way, he didn't want to spend his weekend working on it.

Thirty minutes later he set down his pencil while rubbing his eyes, he had taken small breaks to text Sammy and Kassidi but those weren't long enough for his eyes. Looking up he saw Fiona coming into the house, she was wearing her sports bar outfit, "Well I looked up at the right time my eyes---- Hey what is wrong?" Carl stopped himself and asked her when he saw her come into the kitchen.

"Hard Day." She said rubbing her brow while leaning on the counter, Lip came down scoffing while looking over at her, "Why are you so upset with dad?"

"Fiona, we've, uh, been through this before. Remember? The last time Dad was sober." Lip said while coming to stand near them.

"Yeah so?" She said while taking the ribbons out her hair.

"He, uh, had a bet with some guy at the bar and became the perfect dad. It was the first time he ever came to little league. And, uh, I hit a double. Fucking never saw him so proud." Lip said with some light fondness in his voice.

"You knew he was going to go back to his regular shitty self?" Fiona asked looking at him while Carl just listened on since he already knew the answer.

"No, that's, uh, the thing. I didn't know." Lip said while tying his scarf around his neck and walking out of the house, most likely he was going to see Karen. It was the only person he went out to see this late.

"He is right you know. I remember that time, how can you not? He was a great dad but he became to much, it was like watching Monica when she was having one of her manic episodes but she was only on the high." Carl said while looking at her making her look over at him when he started talking.

"I do remember it. It is just at that time Monica and him were still around, I didn't have to worry about it as much. That was the time I actually didn't need to worry about taking care of you all for once, not that I really mind but...." She said on a sigh.

"No I get it. You shouldn't always need to take care of us Fiona, that isn't your job. Look how about tonight you don't worry about anything, let's hang out in my room and have a movie night, until this gets out of hand we don't need to worry." He said with a smile.

She smiled looking at him, "Alright I just need to go take a shower and get the smell of wings and dude off of me. I will meet you down there though"

Carl nodded and watched her hips sway as she left up the stairs, after she disappeared her opened the bag to see what she had brought. Finding wings he grabbed those as fast as possible, he decided to have this night with Fiona for two reasons.

First was that she was lonely, Steve wasn't going to be around much around this time, from his memories he knew that this is when he would be across town visiting his family. Seeing as he would be to busy doing that to spend time with her then he would get her to hang with him tonight, hopefully that would take her mind off of everything.

Second Kassidi couldn't come over, she tried after the whole him making them official thing, but he dad kept her at home so that they could all meet up tomorrow. Since he was going to be at home alone anyway he figured that he would spend time with her, he hasn't given up how he feels about her yet in anyway.

Taking a plate of wings he walked down the stairs and sat on his couch he set them down before changing, putting on some pajama bottoms he sat down to eat. Turning on the TV he turned on something to watch, most of his streaming services added new shows today, but he didn't want to watch any of them yet so he left them alone.

Though he did just get done watching 'Bridgerton Season 2' and he thought it was just okay, mainly because it wasn't as epic as a love story like Simon and Daphne's. Though he did like Eloise's side story that happened this season, they went more into depth about he character there, though he didn't know how to feel about her dating a commoner.

Not that there was something wrong with that, but he just didn't know how to feel.

"Well what are we going to do tonight?" Fiona asked as she walked down the stairs, she was in her usual of some small shorts along with a thin long sleeve shirt.

"Anything you want. We are relaxing tonight so you can choose, is there anything that you wanted to watch or have been wanting to watch?" He asked while eating another wing.

She walked over sitting right next to him and took the controller, she started going through different streaming services looking for something, Carl just ate the entire time while waiting. Eventually she found some trashy reality TV to watch, he didn't mind and let her put it on since he was letting her decided, plus he watched it sometimes when he was bored.

After choosing she leaned her head on his shoulder while watching it, "So how was the bowling alley today? Did you seduce that girl Ethel yet?" she asked while snuggling into his side.

He smiled lightly while wiping his hands, "What kind of person do you think I am? It isn't my fault that every girl I come across is attracted to me, you are the only girl that I needed to actually try and seduce. Which I am still trying my best at."

She laughed at that leaning her mouth to where it was lined up on his neck, "Really? You had to bring that up at this moment."

He shrugged his shoulders while kissing the top of her head, "Just didn't want you to think I had given up on you, no matter what I am still going to try."

She laughed for a little before going silent and just laying there, he could feel her breath tickling his neck though he didn't move her, he just enjoyed her leaning there. She didn't seem to mind either, she wasn't even paying attention to the show they were watching anymore, instead she curled up more into him.

"So where is Jimmy tonight?" He asked while brushing some of the hair out of her face.

At first it didn't seem like she was going to answer until she finally did, "I don't know. I sent him a message earlier but he didn't answer it, I just think he is really busy, he did say he would call when he had some free time."

Carl didn't say anything but kept brushing his hands through her hair, he circled an arm around her waist while pulling her onto his lap, she didn't mind going willingly on to it. Sitting there she leaned her forehead on his, the two of them were not to far apart, from certain angles it would even look like they were kissing seeing how they were sitting.

After a pause he went for it, leaning forward it was tentative at first to she what she would do, all he did was peck her lips, before leaning back into her for more. She responded the same, all of it was hesitant until they ended up fully making out, for him it felt natural like he was kissing any other girl, there was no disgust or nasty feeling to it.

He couldn't speak for her but by the way her lips were moving it seemed she felt the same way, letting his body take over he let things happen naturally while kissing her. His hands moved around her waist giving her a squeeze as he stood up with her, everyone else in the house was asleep plus his door was locked so they had nothing to worry about.

Lifting her up they moved to the bed, she only broke away for a second before looking into his eyes, he paused while looking to see if she wanted to stop. Getting a small smile she leaned down biting his neck, he took it as a good sign and moved to the bed lightly throwing her on it.

As she bounced softly on it she moved her hands fast taking the shirt off, when it came off he looked down at her pale pink nipples that were erect staring at him. Panting a little he stopped while removing his shirt, after it was over his head he saw her smirk as she moved to hook her fingers on her shorts, he followed her doing the same.

Moments later they were both naked in front of one another, he looked her over with hungry eyes, she was doing the same too though as she laid there watching him stand over her. "We can still stop if you want cause if we don't now then.... this might never stop again." He said while looking at her like a starving wolf.

In the show Fiona only left because the person who played her left the show, but this was real life now, he was going to stop her from becoming a drunk who ruined her life. He might not be able to stop everything that happens but he can make sure a lot of it doesn't happen, plus he can give her a smoother life with his plans for the future.

She looked him back in the eyes Brown and Brown looked into each other, "Then I guess there will be no going back for us then."

That was all he needed to hear before moving to get on top of her, kissing along her neck he moved down her body, when he reached her seemingly perfect breast he took the right nipple in his mouth. She gave a slight moan as his hand reached down and lightly caressed her clit moving to her folds.

Moving his head up he kiss her lips before leaning to her ear, "Then get ready to enjoy this for life....Because I am never letting you go after this."

She gasped/moaned a mix from him biting that ear and a finger going inside of her.

The next morning Carl woke to the house shaking, Fiona seemed out of it as her head lay on his chest, she was holding him pretty tight as her arms were wrapped around him. He already knew that it was Frank who was up there, he honestly didn't want to deal with it, but at the same time it was time to stop the man before the house was gone.

When he the house shook again Fiona finally got up, looking at him for a moment she quickly moved when she felt the house shake again, "To be clear that was an amazing night, so this is not me rushing out because of that. No I am rushing out of here to stop our crazy dad before we leave this room to a giant hole in the side of the house."

He heard her explain as he also slipped on his clothes, looking at her as she turned before heading up the stairs he decided to answer, "Never thought you were leaving cause of that, but I do except a repeat soon, even if it is to have you sleeping in my arms, you feel natural there."

She smiled but then took off again when the house shook, he slipped on his house shoes while following her, making it up the stairs he walked into the kitchen right as Lip made it there. "Why the hell is the couch on the wall?" He asked Frank who was looking into the hole in the wall Debby was right there with him.

"Because we need a fresh start." Frank said while asking Debby to pull the copper wire out of the wall.

"There is a gas line there." Fiona said while growling a little at him.

"Oh well, then we will start in the bathroom Debby, want to join us Carl?" He asked as they started to make their way there.

"No thanks Frank." He answered while shaking his head.

It was just the three of them in the dining area at the moment he leaned against the wall while Lip and Fiona seemed frustrated, "And I was having the best sleep of my life this morning!" Fiona growled a little while running her hands through her hair.

Carl looked the other way so Lip wouldn't see his smile.

"We have to kill the turtle." Debby said as she came down the stairs while the three of them were trying to figure out what to do, "Daddy is getting ready to cut a hole in the attic to make a sky light, it is time to kill the turtle."

"You know Debby, you were the turtle in my story right?" Lip said with a funny smile.

"Oh."

"I get what you are saying though. Are you sure about this though?"

"It will hurt less now then in two more weeks." Debby said but there was a little sadness in her voice as she said it though.

"What is up with the turtle?" Fiona asked looking between the two, Carl knew that he would have also had that talk if he was the younger version of himself, but at the moment he just smiled at Fiona.

"You wouldn't understand." Debby said before her and Lip started to walk off.

"Fiona can you or Carl bring something for me to make him drink when I get him off this ladder?" Lip asked as him and Debby went up the stairs, she nodded before heading to a cabinet.

"Best sleep of your life huh?" Carl said walking behind her when the other two were fully gone, he wrapped his arms around her as she grabbed what she was looking for.

She turned her head smiling at him, "Meant every word," pecking him on the lips she patted his arm, "Now lets go get rid of this home make over dad." She said while grabbing his hand and walking towards the stairs.

As they reached the top they nodded to Lip who was about to shock Frank, seeing their nod he did it, they all watched him fall off the ladder landing on his back. Not giving him time to catch himself Lip and him held him down while Fiona poured the vodka into his mouth, of course he struggled but they weren't having it any more.

"Alright well we did it guys, now I am going to spend the rest of my morning playing games." Carl said while standing up, he still had that dinner later in the night so he wanted to relax just in case it was really stressful.
