•Riley's POV
He held my hand and we walked home while it was pouring rain and we were both dripping wet by the time we got home. We went in and bumped into Frank.
"Hey guys lo-" he began but stopped when he saw our hands.
"No way"
"Yes way" Liam smirked
Frank looked at us in amazement and we took off our jackets and went into the warm living room seeing as we were both freezing from the rain and cold weather from outside. We decided not to tell anyone other than Frank cause they're annoying teasing toe rags that wouldn't leave us alone or quit the teasing. Didn't stop Liam from putting his arm around my shoulder when we sat down tho :)

Series 2 episode 11 (Snake Bite)
•Riley's POV
A month goes by and Liam and I are doing amazing. Everyone eventually found out since Carmen,Tee,and Lily caught Liam giving me a kiss before we went to school and ever since then the teasing's been a nightmare but it is what it is. My mental health has also been improving a bit and I owe it all to Liam. You wouldn't think it,but he's the best mental health supporter and always shows you that he's there for you. Right now Liam and I are playing pool whilst Toby is teaching Elektra how to play chess (weird i know) when Tracy walks in with a letter for Elektra
"This came for you. Is it from a secret admirer?" She teases. Elektra rolls her eyes as she slightly moves away trying to hide whatever came in the mail for her from view. Seems to be a letter and a box with something in it.
"I'm going out" she suddenly says and she leaves the room
"Did you see what was in envelope?" Tracy frowns as she asks Toby
"It looked like an earring with a snake" Toby replies
A look of panic spreads across Tracy's face as she heads into mikes office and I know why. Elektra used to be in a gang called the Cobras and they were total pillocks. They would shoplift,scam,bully,threaten,steal and all that sort of stuff. How do I know this? I have Liam O'Donovan as a boyfriend. I think that says it all.

•Tracy's POV
I ran after her and yelled "Elektra wait!" But she slammed the front door and left. I rain into Mikes office and asked Mike "Elektras old gang the Cobras,they're not supposed to know she's here right?"
"Right"
"Well someone left her a package outside that looked like an earring with a snake"
"Where is she" Mike asked alarmed
"She's gone out I couldn't stop her! Look I'll just go and find her" and left without listening to Mikes splutters. As I left I bumped into Gina who was just coming and asked her "Hi have you seen Elektra?"
"She's just headed into town why?" Gina replies suspiciously but I don't answer her as I pick up my pace to try and find her.

God bringing Riley and Liam together may have been easy,but keeping Elektra and her old pals apart might be hard.

I eventually catch up with Elektra and keep my distance so she doesn't see me. I keep following her until she leads into a park and goes up to a girl and hugs her. They pull apart and the girl says
"What happened. I'm banged up for six months and you didn't even call?"
"I just didn't think you'd wanna hear from me again" Elektra mutters
"Not wanna hear from you?" She raises her eyebrows and they both smile as they go in for another hug.

I'm not liking this one bit.

•Liam's POV
I see Tracy,Elektra and some other girl that looked like she's probably Elektra's mate come in. She seems sketchy. I eavesdrop by the door and I was right. She's one of her old gang mates. She's apparently "changed" but I don't trust her one bit. I don't give a damn what she gets Elektra into I just hope she doesn't hang around and get close with the others. I go back into the living room and see Carmen frank tee and Johnny mucking around and dancing with some brooms while Gus is playing some ballroom track thingy on the piano.
"What's going on" I snicker at the sight of them
"Tee and I walked in on Gina dancing around like a duck with a broom in the kitchen"Carmen laughs
I snort at the image that popped up in my head. I turn around and face Riley and bow down dramatically and offer my hand and say in a false posh voice
"May I have the pleasure of this dance Miss Gina,I'd like to sweep you off your feet"
"Oh why Mister broom I thought you'd never ask" she replies in an equally dumb posh voice and we start "ballroom dancing" while really just looking stupid and taking the Mickey out of Gina. The others all get dancing with a broom and literally the living room just looks like a bunch of care kids trying to turn a madhouse into a ballroom. We keep mucking about when the music stops.
