Summary - If two trains travel in the same direction on parallel tracks, what are the chances of the trains colliding? Slim to none, seeing as one conductor is avoiding the other like a plague. But storms complicate control, and before you know it. . .
This is my thoughts of what would happen five years after the current time in Shameless. I'll be honest, as you'll discover in later chapters, I guessed at the ages of each character. I think I'm mostly accurate. Please comment on this if you read it. It'd be appreciated.

littlrdrdghood for the first look and for saving this fic from veering into crazy character assassination. All other mistakes are mine. Please don't sue.pairing: Ian/Mickey
rating: Hard R?
word count: ~4000
warnings: Underage sex, (very) underage alcohol and drug use, lots of cursing, misogynistic and homophobic slurs and generally offensive language, (internalized) homophobia, (haha so many warnings omg, but basically what you'd expect for the show), a worryingly high angst-to-plot ratio.
disclaimer: I don't own these characters or the storylines, don't sue me!
summary: The real problem with Ian Gallagher is that, for such a fucking smartass, he can be a real retard sometimes. He may make good grades in school and have learned all kinds of shit from Lip that no one ever bothered to teach Mickey, but he’s fucked in the way of common sense.
notes: Ahhhh, my first non-TSN fic on this journal!! I was sucked into this fandom and this ship, omg, I went in for the semi-public sex and was sucker-punched by angst and pain. So, business as usual XD. But seriously, I'm pretty nervous posting this. These guys are pretty different from characters I'm used to writing, so I really hope the characterization isn't too far off. This is more of a character study than anything (plot-lite!); Mickey is really such a fascinating character who seems at war with his own heart, and I wanted to explore that and try out something kinda different. Thanks to woodsward for all her encouragement and supporting my insane descent into this ship!! Hope you like it, babe!
Oh, also, I kind of guessed about the ages? I gathered from the show that Lip and Mickey are approximately two years older than Ian and Mandy but I'm not really sure considering how Mickey seems to age slower than everyone else (how is he STILL young enough to be in juvie, lmao), so, yeah.
When Mickey was in sixth grade, he was best friends with Lip Gallagher. “Best friends” in the loosest sense of the term, because even then, Mickey didn’t really do friends. Mickey didn’t know shit about how to be a nice guy, the kind of guy people would want to be friends with, but Lip did, apparently.
