Eleven
Gina was banging on Summer's door. "Summer wake up, you have school," she cried. Gina pushed open the door and saw Summer still laying in bed. Summer rolled and fell out, before standing up and running downstairs. "You'll be late," Gina continued. Summer ignored her and ran into the bathroom. She leaned over the toilet and was sick.
Mike heard Summer being sick and went into the bathroom. "Summer, I think you should stay off school," he told her as another wave of sickness hit her. She nodded weakly. "Tracy will stay with you." He left and went to find Tracy. "Tracy," he said when he had found her, "can you stay here today and look after Summer? She is sick. Me and Gina will take the kids to school on foot, go and collect the minibus and do the shopping. We should be back in time to pick the kids up from school." Tracy nodded.
"Sure thing," she replied.
Elektra's POV
Summer was being sick this morning. We waited five minutes for her and she never even turned up. When I get my hands on her she will wish she hadn't been ill. I groaned when Mike came out. "Come on kids," he said, "We will have to walk to school. We also need to be quick because we are running late." I moaned.
"If she wasn't sick we would have left on time," I shrieked. I knew it wasn't her fault. She couldn't help being ill but I wasn't feeling too well either. I had a headache and felt really hot. Liam marched up to me.
"Leave her alone. It's not her fault," he shouted at me. Mike stepped in between me and him. I was annoyed at Liam for sticking up for her, but then it clicked.
"Oh, you like her," I said realisation dawning on me. He looked at me with murderous eyes.
"I don't like her," he said. "And besides I have a girlfriend."
Liam's POV
'I do like her, I love her, but I'm not going to tell Elektra that. And the lie was only a lie. It wouldn't hurt her would it.' I thought. I stared at my feet and thought of her silky brown hair and her blue eyes. I shook myself out of it and followed Frank to school.
"You don't have a girlfriend, Liam," Frank told me. I looked at him.
"I know that and you know that but Elektra doesn't," I replied.
Summer lay in bed looking up at the ceiling. Tracy came in. "Hey do you want anything? A drink?" she asked. Summer nodded.
"please," she said hoarsely. "Tracy, are these anyone's hair extensions?" Summer asked holding up the coloured hair extensions that she had found. Tracy looked at them.
"Yes, they are Gina's. Tee took them when Elektra had a club called seta here. Must never have returned them," Tracy said picking up the hair extensions and taking them downstairs with her to get Summer a glass of water.
