A/N: Change of plan with the chapters. Strong Language, Adult scenes. Disturbing scenes. Adding Criminal Arthur ShawCross. In this Story ShawCross is Sixteen.


At last, he was really released. Let out for good behavior believe it or not. He Passed the Psychiatrists tests like a good Little boy. He could do what he wanted. Well, he thought he could. Only his Father would have anything to do with him now. Maybe it was out of guilt. He just didn't know. He didn't want to know. Every school he applied to wouldn't let him in.

It was join HollyOaks Sixth form, or nothing. His Father pushed him through the gates. "Art, this is your last fucking chance. No fires, no violence or anything else. Understand?" His Father said. "Yeah" Art said.


They had the interview with Head-Teacher Patrick Blake. He looked at Sandy Roscoes files on him. There was no mention about his past in there. His Dad had asked Sandy to leave it out.

Even if Sandy had put it in, she wouldn't have put in the full story. Sandy Roscoe only thought that Art was in trouble for stealing. His Dad couldn't bring himself to tell her the truth. "So Mr ShawCross, I've looked at your file and I'm very pleased to introduce you to HollyOaks" Mr Blake said.


"Mr Blake it's great to hear you say that. Art is going to be a model student. Aren't you?" His Dad asked. Art nodded. The first day at school went okay. Until Art saw Perrie Lomax.

When it came to girls, the younger they were the better. He walked down the corridor trying to film her. He wasn't looking at where he was going. He bumped into a kid that was taking his books out of his locker.


"Oi, watch it prick" Finn said.

"Sorry….it's just….there are…really hot girls at this school" Art said.

"Yeah…I've got one. You new?" Finn asked. Art nodded. The kid introduced himself as Finn. Instantly Art was attracted to Finn as well. Not so much as in looks. Although Finn looked okay. Art didn't really have a type. He went after kids that he could control. There was no point going after a fat kid, or a muscular kid. Where was the fun in that?


Art was sure that he could pick Finn up. He had find out more about him. Like where he lived and with who. It wasn't until they were sitting next to each other that Art got the courage to talk to him.

He looked at Finn's Facebook page, and his Twitter page, to get any info he could on him. "So Finn, what do you think's best, X Box or The PlayStation Four?" Art asked him tapping his pencil.

"PS4, yeah" Finn said.


"Yeah me too, Assassin's creed is crazy" Art said. Faking something in common with him, Finn asked Art if he wanted to go out for lunch with him and Robbie. Art agreed. He thought Robbie Roscoe was an arse-hole. All bark and no bite. All through lunch this Robbie was talking about a car that he and his brother were going to get.

"So umm…you and your Brother are working then?" Art asked.


"Nah, but my Brother's own a Garage. Me and Jase will have the cash in no time" Robbie said. Art liked Jason Roscoe better than his Brother Robbie. Jason was more clueless.

But at the same time he was more realistic than Robbie, to Art anyway. He thought Jason was better looking too, but after hearing that the Roscoe Twins had three older Brothers he couldn't ask Jason out. It would be too dangerous. Art's best bet was Finn.


Finn was a mystery, though. He said he had a girlfriend, but Art hadn't seen any girls around Finn. Not even when they came in from lunch. Finn could have been one of those guys that lied for attention. Art wasn't sure yet.

"So…who's got McQueen next?" Robbie asked.

"I have" Finn said, trying not to look too excited. "Give him hell, film it then send it to me yeah?" Robbie asked walking away.


"Who's McQueen?" Art asked.

"A Teacher dumb-arse. John Paul McQueen….he's a dick" Finn said.

"Posh name. Is his rich and American?" Art asked.

"Nah, he's a poor fag that lives with his Sisters" Finn said. Walking with Finn to his classroom Art was able to get a look at this John-Paul McQueen.


Sure, Mr McQueen seemed cute and friendly, but why were the other kids wary of him? Did he do something to any of them? Or were they just paranoid because John-Paul was a fag and a teacher? Art would have to do some more digging.

But he introduced himself to Perrie first. He was able to get behind her. He used an old move. He tripped Perrie up brought her up with his arm. Perrie looked back but didn't see anyone there.


"Oh umm.. thanks" She said holding her books.

"No problem, I'm new…but I guess you rather have hot Mr McQueen help you up" Art said.

"What?" Perrie asked.

"Umm…it's just I've been hearing that...all the girls love him around here" Art said.


"No way. John-Paul's a total weirdo….I've got to go" Perrie said. She turned away thinking that she'd said too much. But she hadn't, it just made Art more curious. Maybe Finn could help Art out. As school ended, Art meet Finn and asked him what he was doing later.

"Nothing" Finn said. He didn't want to tell Art what he really wanted to do.


"You wanna set a fire later?" Art asked. Curious they exchanged numbers and Finn meet Art around the back of Trevor's' club. He told his Mum he was out with Phoebe. Sure it was weird going to the same place he made a move on John-Paul. But at least this place had good memories. Art was good at making fires. Finn was surprised by it.

They sat next to each other as the fire cackled and sparked.


"So...Where's this "Girlfriend" of yours?" Art asked.

"Fuck you Art. Phoebe's fucking real" Finn said.

"You know Psychologists say that imaginary friends and Girl-friends are only half fake. You know, because the feelings that you have for them are real" Art said.


"That's bullshit. You been to Child Psychiatrists then? Finn asked.

"Child Counsellors...Child Psychologists Child Psychiatrists…..every Doctor ever created" Art said.


"Great" Finn said. Art looked at him.

"Finn, aren't you gonna ask me what for? I mean how is that "Great?" Art asked.

"It's "Great" because you sound like an expert on Child Psychologists and Child Psychiatrists, and I need your help" Finn said.
