They were all stood round the table making a beans on toast tower with the out of date beans.
"What are you doing?" Tracy walked in.
"Making a tower what's it look like" Liam smiles.
"Okay why?"
"You don't expect us to eat this rubbish do you?" Saff asks.
"You keep giving us these cheap beans" Carmen stated.
"And I think you'll find there past there sell by date" tee added holding the tin up.
"Only by a couple days" Tracy pointed out. "We've got to save money"
"No"
"We can't go swimming"
"We've had no takeaways"
"We've had no electricity time"
"Okay okay I know it's a little bit rubbish" Tracy said.
Gus came in saying about his piano lessons.
"Look me in the eye Tracy beaker and tell us this is fair" Liam said.

"Burnywood" Liam says.
"They can't do that" Carmen added.
"This is are home" tee added as well.
"That's why we need to make these cuts work" tracy responded.
"Nah don't get sucked in, if they want to shut us down they will do it, no matter how much money we save" sapphire walks out.
"Saff come back"
"I've done a stretch in burnywood I'm not going back" Liam mentioned.
"Then help us make it cheaper here and you won't need too. Neither will anyone else" Tracy told them.
"But how?" Liv asked.
"Everyone lets show these council muppets how to run this place on the cheap" Liam said grabbing livs hand, with everyone following.

"I've gone through like every thing and you can have this and this" Carmen said to liv. A pair of socks. 
"That's it. Carmen we need 2 full bin bags"
"Two?!"
"Give us attitude and it will be double!" Liam adds.
"What are you doing?" Liams asks tee.
"Oh I thought if we put these on are feet then we won't miss the carpet" she said holding up the carpet cut up in shoe size.
"Good job tee" liv says smiling.

"What, Liam" liv walks out seeing all the stuff gone in a van and leaving.
"What we're making money, look"
"Yeah but all the furniture and entertainment, I mean everything? Really" she sighed.

"Ta da!" Liam said walking into the bedroom that had the all the mattress in.
"Woah what are you doing?" Mike asks confused.
"We would like you to present you with the results of are saving elm tree house campaign!" Liam grins.
"Tee is going to move in with me and Lily so we can save money on heating" Carmen says.
"What have you done with the carpet and where are the curtains?" Gina asks.
"All in good time, tee" liv chuckles.
"I made these so that we don't miss the carpet" she holds up the shoe things she made earlier.
"Thanks?" Mike and Gina both say as she hands some to them.
"Worked out the saving" Gus stated.
"Saving electricity, saving heating and also sharing baths" Liam says.
"Talking" Gus shouts.
"Yeah there is no way I'm sharing a bath" sapphire says.
"Me neither" Frank adds.
"Not all at the same time, just the same water" Liam laughs.
"Nah that's rank" sapphire says.
"To be honest it is" liv added.
"Talking" Gus repeats. "Adding the saving to the money,Liam got from the house clearance man"
"What!" Shocked Mike.
"It's all about the contacts Mike. Here" he hands him the money.
"Talking! Adding the cash to the saving means well each go into cost. Twenty nine pounds and eighty seven pence week less."
"That matches the burnywood prices right?" Tracy grins.
"Yes" Mike adds.
Everyone cheers.
"We can see how hard you have worked yeah" Gina says.
"Ah spit it out please" Frank covers his eyes.
"Look there isn't a council in the country that will let us run a home like this" mike manages to say. "Im really sorry guys but your going to have to buy the hole lot back"
Everyone storms out.
"Off to burnywood we go then" liv mutters.

Liv lies down next to Liam that evening.
"I can't believe this" she groans.
"I know" he groans as well.
They fall asleep next to each other by accident.

Liam gets all the stuff back that morning.
"Right who's ready to go to war" Tracy walks in on Frank, Liam and liv sorting out liams bed.
"Plan b" Liam replies.
"You bet! Did they really think they'd get away with dragging us out of are own home. We're going to tell the world what's been going on. They won't know what's hit them" she smiles.
"Im in." Liam says. "Im in" Frank says as well.
"Me too" liv says. "Oh and me" sapphire says.
"Thought you didn't want to know" Liam states.
"We'll we've got nothing else on" she smiles at Harry on her back.

"It's all going to be alright. Lily's moving in with the Perrys and it will save us money" Carmen runs out the house after they finished setting up the protest.
"Carmen shut up" Lily shouts.
"Why this is great for you"
"It's not that simple" Mike stated.
"How much will it save?" Liam asks.
"Stop it I don't want to go" Lily tears up.
Everyone shouts.
"It's not up to you" Lily says.
"Yeah well you've got a home to go to, we're losing are's, to get sent to a prison" Liam shouts.
"Liam stop if she doesn't want to go then she doesn't have to" liv stated hugging Lily.
Lily runs in and liv follows.

"Lily it's okay" Liv says as she runs lilys back for comfort as she's crying on her bed.

"Lily wait!" Liv runs after Lily as she hears Christie's voice. 
"Tracy help!" Lily climbs up the ladder.
"Lily wait!" Liv climbs up too.
"What you doing go back inside" Tracy exclaims.
Lily climbs next to her.
"Lily come back" liv shouts.
"LILY!" Liv shouts as she tries to see where she is.
Liv manages to climb up to the top of the ladder.
"Lily come back" liv shouts.
All of a sudden she falls down. Livs heart drops. She's full of tears when she runs down to check on her.
"Lily" liv cried as she opens the door.
Seeing her being surrounded by people.
Liam grabbed her so she would stay back.
"It's okay" Liam held onto liv tight.
"I should of grabbed her in time, this is all my fault" she cried.
"No don't say that it's not" he grabbed her tighter.

They were all sat around the table. Liv's head in her arms on the table next to Liam.
"Guys listen up please, this is—" Mike was about to say.
"I'll take it from here thanks mr Milligan. Im Leanne Spinks I've been sent from the council. We're launching a full investigation of how this accident happened. Whilst that's in progress, elm tree house will be closed and you will all be placed elsewhere" she said.
They all shouted.
"The decision has been taken and it's final"
"Oh, my god" liv sighed in her hands.

Everyone locked themself in the basement. Except sapphire and Harry.
"Come on Liam open up" Mike knocked on the door.
"Open this door" Leanne firmly spoke.
"You gonna keep elm tree open?"
"You know we can't do that" Mike answered Liam.
"Go find someone who can."

"Liam, open the door, it's me" sapphire knocked.
"No tricks?"
"It's me"
He let her in and closed the door quickly.

They all ended up coming out.
"Liam" liv pushed him over round a corner.
"Yeah"
"Your running aren't you"
"Yeah, you coming?"
"I have to look after this lot don't I"
"Yeah" he sighed.
"Im gonna miss you" she hugged him tightly.
"I'll miss you too"
"Be safe alright"
"I think I need to tell you that, burnywood will be rough but your strong."
"Thanks" she suddenly kissed him. "Good luck charm" she smiled. He smiled.
"See you around Johnson"
"See you around O'donovan"

Off to burnywood she and the others went.

Oh dear... but that kiss. Don't worry there'll be more to come ;)
