I’ve just made covers for the upcoming mini books in the We Were Just Kids series. I’m super hyped for this, and hope you all stick with me and the story of Charlie and Leah.
I really want this series to go well, so for everyone who followed me over a year ago for my friends fan fic, I promise that you don’t need to know a thing about Hollyoaks. Charlie and Leah are quite underdeveloped characters in the show, though both of their personalities have been somewhat established, which I’ve tried to build upon.
Also:
Nancy is Charlie’s aunt, she has MS, but Charlie lives with Nancy full time and has done for years.
Ste isn’t Leah’s dad, but Leah doesn’t know this yet. This may be something I explore later in the series.
Leah and Lucas’ mum passed a year ago, murdered by her husband, actually.
Darren is Nancy’s estranged husband, they get along as friends (and still live in the same house) but I’ve had the pair split up prior, as this is where the show is heading in real life.
That’s about it, I don’t want to ruin the story, but if you don’t watch the show, not knowing this would make the story kinda confusing. “Why doesn’t Charlie call Nancy mum” or “wait, what, where are Leah’s real parents”
It’s not like any of you are going to read this, but I better stop typing anyways, I need to fish some prawn cracker out of my drink....
