Beverly Hills Jail and Police Department:
He took a deep sigh of relief as the judge freed him.
Liam slipped his arms from the cold metal cuffs, and massaged both his wrists with his large hands. The room felt warmer as the sun fell through the glass windows and hit his hard face. His eyes wandered around the court room, his ears buzzing and his vision slightly blurred from every movement in the room. He suddenly felt his lawyers' hands shake his' in victory.
He was furious and relieved all at the same time.
Campbell Price had not shown up to the arraignment. The video tapes that were found at the concert revealed that Campbell and some members of the Cronos Society had plotted the bomb in Liam's duffle bag after sneaking backstage. The video revealed that a cooking grill was placed in Liam's duffle bag near the fireworks behind the stage. It was revealed that one of the members from the Cronos Society had purchased the cooking grill and had illegally brought it in the concert. There was now a search investigation for a missing Campbell Price and his two friends.
Liam slowly turned around as his friends made their way towards him. The whole Wilson family and the rest of his friends were very happy to see him. Teddy led the group towards Liam.
"Teddy," Liam muttered graciously. "Thank you, man. If it wasn't for you, I would probably still be behind bars." Liam smiled warmly. "Or locked up in a California State Prison for the next ten years of my life."
"What are friends for, right?" chuckled Teddy, embracing Liam tightly. "I'm just glad...all of us are glad that you're out of there. I really do hope they catch his ass." Mark wheeled Dixon around Teddy as Silver and Naomi walked behind them.
"Dixon," called Liam, smiling. Dixon put his fist up in the air as Liam pounded his fist against his. Mark, Silver, and Navid embraced Liam and stepped to the side as Naomi strutted passed them. "Thanks for coming guys."
"Oh my God, Liam! Do I have to slap you again?" said Naomi. "You know I could've gotten you out of here! You should have let me known! I could have had Jordan's mom here in a second. That woman owes me anyways." Liam chuckled softly. "...Good thing you're out of that God awful orange suit."
"It's good to see you again, Naomi," laughed Liam quietly. Naomi moved aside as Annie made her way towards her fiancé.
Annie met Liam with a beautiful smile painted across her soft face. It was a hopeful smile. With everything that was going on in her life, she needed her man more than ever. She carefully held his face in her delicate hands and smiled sweetly at him. He never felt more alive and free as he reached for her small waist. Holding Annie in his arms made his heart pound lively against his chest.
"Annie," he whispered to her happily. A slow tear fell out of Annie's sultry eyes as he pressed his lips against hers. "Hey there..."
"I've really missed you," she muttered quietly, pouting her lips. Liam grabbed her hand and gently kissed her forehead.
"I'm here now," he reassured her sweetly. "I'm not going anywhere."

The Offshore:
Adrianna stepped quietly into an empty Offshore.
She wore large shades on her long face that covered the bruises that engulfed her strained eyes. She kept very to herself as she slowly made her way around the counter. She kept her head down as her long, unbrushed hair hid the rest of her scars.
"Adrianna?" called Old Salty from behind the bar, startling her. She turned around and gazed at the ground. "What are you doing here? Didn't you hear about Liam's hearing today? Everyone's there right now..." Adrianna kept quiet.
"Hey," muttered Adrianna, keeping her distance. "Umm...yeah of course I know about it. Since Navid's been staying here, he needed me to get something from his room. Do you mind?"
"No, not at all," answered Old Salty very nonchalantly. "Go ahead. You know where his room is." Adrianna smiled inwardly and quickly dashed off.
Adrianna carefully shut the door behind her as she slowly removed her sunglasses away from her face. She squinted her damaged eyes against the sun's light as she began to move around the small room.
"Where are you?" she muttered to herself. She was looking for Liam's .38 special revolver that he kept for safety in his room. She continued to open drawers and closets and even searched under the mattress. "C'mon, c'mon..."
She stopped for a moment and gazed over her shoulder. She moved towards the bed's headboard and slipped her arm behind it. She moved her hand around the headboard until she felt the pistol graze her fingers. She quickly detached it from the headboard and took a deep breath.
"Did you find it?" called Old Salty from outside. Adrianna was startled and quickly threw the revolver in her purse. Soon enough, Old Salty stepped into the room with a wet towel in his hands. "Do you need help?"
"I'm okay," answered Adrianna, putting on her shades. "I found what I needed." She rapidly made her way out the room.
"Hey Ade!" called Old Salty, stopping her in her tracks. He knew something was off about her. Adrianna shut her eyes and turned around to face him. "...tell Navid he's been a good business partner. He's really helped me out around here." Adrianna smiled shortly. "If you need a place to stay for a while, you guys can stay here as long as you want."
"Thanks," murmured Adrianna.
Naomi's Mansion:
The Queen of Beverly Hills moved swiftly across her home, fighting the vicious paparazzi scattered around her mansion. She ferociously drew in the heavy curtains with her thin arms and attempted to lock all the doors as she tried to maintain order around her home.
"I'll be over soon, Sil," said Naomi on the phone. "Tell the Wilson's I'll be there, I just wanted to stop by my house..."
"Be careful on the road," replied Silver. "I'll see you here."
"Make sure you're getting rest," added Naomi.
Naomi dropped her phone on the table as she tightened the curtains with her hands.
"What the hell is going on around here!" she shrieked furiously. "The Prince Harry scandal is finished, people! Go home you pathetic leeches!"
"Why don't you tell me what's really going on...," muttered Jordan from behind, strolling in from the backdoor. Naomi was taken back.
"Jordan?" she muttered, making her way towards him. He resisted her embrace and stepped away from a perplexed Naomi. "Huh? What...I don't understand...what's going on? Why are you acting like this?"
The loud voices of the paparazzi was drowned out by the gravity in Jordan's voice and stature. Naomi helplessly gazed at Jordan for some understanding.
"Help me out here, Jordan," she pleaded. "You're scaring me..."
"I was in New York," began Jordan sternly. Naomi looked at his emotionless face. "...I was in New York to visit you..."
"I...I didn't know," she confessed. "What does that have to do with anything?"
"I visited your office," interjected Jordan. "Your assistant gave me the address to your penthouse..." Naomi knew where this was headed.
"Jordan," she muttered, embarrassed. She held on to her stomach as she attempted to balance herself on her stilettos.
"I saw you, Naomi! I saw you with another man on your balcony!" he yelled angrily. "How could you, Naomi! After all I did for you! After all my mom did for you and your brother! Everything I risked just to be with you! What -"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" shrieked Naomi, quieting Jordan. "I was with another man! What you saw was real." Her chest rose heavily. "I...cheated on you with another man...and I am so sorry." Jordan bit his lips and clenched his fists. "Listen to me, Jordan...you have to believe me when I say what I did was wrong. But you have to understand -"
"No I don't," Jordan spat. "I don't understand." Naomi looked away. "...and when were you planning on telling me about this? When we started getting even more serious?"
"I was planning to tell you when I came back home, believe me!" explained Naomi desperately. "This is not how I planned on telling you at all! I love you, Jordan!"
"You have a hell of a way of showing it," snapped Jordan.
"I was feeling lonely," explained Naomi desperately. "I was afraid. I was alone. I missed Max." Jordan was taken back as Naomi continued to ramble. "I know what I say right now is not going to change how you feel about me..."
"You just said it," muttered Jordan. Naomi realized what she had just said. "Have a nice life with Max."
"Jordan, wait!" she called. "Don't do this!" He quickly stepped outside her mansion and left. She fell down to the floor and wrapped her arms around herself as she wept to herself.
Wilson Residence:
Liam and Annie rested gently on her mattress in her bedroom, while everyone else gathered downstairs in the living room. Annie pressed herself against Liam's broad chest, as he wrapped his large arms around her petite body. Although everything seemed chaotic in her life at the moment, there was an unexplainable peace that Annie felt when she was in his arms.
They both continued to stare at her engagement ring. What was next? They both had the same question lingering on their thoughts.
Liam and Annie were very comfortable, but bothered at the same time.
"What's on your mind?" asked Liam, grazing her dark chocolate hair. He leaned in to kiss her forehead.
"You," she answered sweetly, biting her lip. "Us...our future." She gazed up at Liam. "You?"
"Same," he replied to her quietly. "I can't help but feel like our lives just stopped for a few weeks..." Annie took a deep breath. "I honestly felt like I was never going to get out of there. That I would never get to hold you like this."
"It's good you're here, now," Annie added.
"I was so scared, Annie," he confessed to her. "I was afraid of being away from you. You're the only thing that keeps me alive."
"When I found out you were in jail," Annie began. "My heart broke. I couldn't breathe. I knew I couldn't survive another day being away from you." Liam traced her face with his finger. "Seeing you in jail...not being able to touch you...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do..."
"I'm here now," he said to her, looking in her eyes. Annie's soul swam into the depths of Liam's clear blue eyes. "And you will never have to go through anything like that again...ever."
"It feels good," she said. "You're here. My parents are back. Dixon's okay..." Liam smiled. "...and we're getting married?" Both Liam and Annie knew that ever since their engagement, the recent events have definitely impacted their lives greatly. Getting married wasn't a main priority anymore - so they both thought. "...Please don't get mad at me when I say this...Are we really ready?" Liam had the same thought. "Am I crazy? We both want this, but I'm feeling -"
"Annie," he muttered.
"I love you, Liam," she said to him, reaching for his face. "I will always love you. That's all I've ever known...but why does it have to be all or nothing right now?" Liam gazed at her. "...Let's take things slow for now. Let's get to know each other more."
"Take things slower...I like that," repeated Liam, agreeing with Annie. "Annie, I don't care about a damn ring on my finger. I just want to be with you." Annie gulped. "I want to wake up every day knowing that my heart belongs to you..." She kissed him slowly.
"Things are just too hectic right now," she added, as Liam nodded his head. "I think it's best if we just hold off our wedding for a while. For everyone. For us."
"I don't know what to do from here...but what I know..is that I love you, Annie," Liam expressed. "I have waited five years for you...and you are definitely worth the wait again..."
"I love you, too," she responded breathlessly. "I love you so much." She leaned in slowly as Liam pressed his lips softly against hers'.

Living Room:
The room quieted down as they all assembled around in the living room. The smell of hamburger patties, hot dogs, and sausages on the grill encompassed the house.
Harry had his arms around Debbie as they stood to the side. Annie and Liam came down from her bedroom and sat next to Dixon, while Teddy took a seat next to Silver and Navid. Mark opened the door for Naomi as she entered the house.
Annie and Silver both noticed that Naomi had been crying. Something was wrong.
"Are you okay?" whispered Annie to Naomi. Naomi quickly nodded her head and brushed Annie away. She welcomed Liam and Dixon home with a kiss on the cheek and took a seat next to Silver. Annie and Silver exchanged worried glances.
"Where's Adrianna?" asked Naomi to Navid. She cleared her strained voice. "Everyone is here except her!"
"She said she's almost here," answered Navid. He suddenly gathered everyone's attention. "And by the way...Ade sort of fell down the stairs and has a few marks on her face. Please listen to me when I tell you all: don't overreact when she gets here, please? Please! You know how insecure Ade can get."
"Navid," interrupted Dixon. "I'm in a wheelchair with a collapsed lung."
"I just got out of jail," added Liam.
"And I'm perfect," chirped Naomi, nervously chuckling. Silver gazed at Naomi.
"What's wrong?" asked Silver.
"Jordan just broke up with me," muttered Naomi. Silver reached for Naomi as Annie pouted her lips. "...It doesn't matter. He does not know what he just lost. Apparently he can't handle my perfect personality."
"Naomi," muttered Annie.
"It's fine," mouthed Naomi. "I'm fine."
The door opened slowly and in came Adrianna with her shades placed tightly against her face.
"Oh, there she is!" called out Navid. He stood up to walk her in. She brought with her a plate of cookies and smiled shyly at her friends. "Let me get those, Ade. Take a seat." He whispered in her ear that he had told them what had happened to her.
Adrianna slowly removed her shades and placed them in her purse. Everyone was taken back and spat out worried looks at her. Naomi rapidly stood up from her seat and reached for Adrianna.
"Oh my God!" Naomi hissed. Everyone turned their heads at her as Navid said not to overreact. "...Don't worry, Ade! We can fix this. We can totally fix this! Let me call my dermatologist really quick, we'll get you back to your beautiful, fresh face again!" Adrianna chuckled. "I have some foundation in my purse...we can cover those dark ugly things really fast. You totally won't be able to tell."
"I'm fine, Naomi," responded Adrianna. "It was just a hard fall." Annie, Silver, and Teddy all exchanged worried looks.
"Are you sure you're okay, Ade?" asked Annie. Adrianna looked at all of them and reassured them that she was perfectly fine.
Harry, Debbie, and Mark brought in food form the backyard and invited everyone to eat.
As time slowly passed by, Silver finally stood up in front of everyone. She was ready to tell her friends. She couldn't fight this alone anymore. Especially after starting her chemotherapy, she needed as many supporters she could get.
"I have something to say," she began nervously. "...And you guys can take that worried look off your faces, because what I'm about to say shouldn't affect the way you look at me from this point on."
"What is it, Sil?" asked Annie, sitting up.
"As you all know," began Silver. "I lost my baby -" Everyone hung their head. "Teddy and Michaela and I lost our baby. And it's been really hard. Really really hard."
"Sweetie," whispered Annie, holding her hand.
"Some of you guys already know this," muttered Silver. "...For some of you, I've already told you what's going on. For those who I haven't told, I swear I've been trying to find the right time to tell you all." Everyone listened intently. "I...I...um...I tested positive for cancer." Silver's eyes overflowed with tears as her friends gazed desperately at her. "It hit me hard at first. Especially after losing my baby." Adrianna reminisced about her own daughter and grabbed Silver's other hand. "It was very hard. But Dixon and Teddy have been helping me through it..."
"Silver," whispered Annie.
"No, it's okay. I'm okay," Silver responded quietly. "I've accepted the fact that I have it. And now I have cancer." Everyone took a deep breath. "...but I am resilient. I will fight. And I will win." Dixon smiled sweetly at her. "I just wanted to tell you all that I need you guys to support me...to support me during this time in my life. I'm going to get this cancer removed. I know I've been pretty selfish lately, but all I'm asking is for your comfort and peace." She sniffled. "...and one more thing. I will not let this define who I am. I am still Silver. And I hope I'm still Silver to all of you."
"You will always be our Silver," muttered Annie, embracing Silver.
"And we're all going to be here for you," added Adrianna, reaching for Silver's hand.
"Till the end," whispered Naomi, running her hand down Silver's arm.
"All of us," said Dixon.
Dixon and the boys hung around the small patio as they exchanged cool beers.
"When are you going back to Vermont?" asked Liam to Mark.
"When are you finally going to get married?" asked Mark in return.
"Touche," muttered Liam with a grin.
"Seriously, bro," added Navid. "You were pretty set on getting a ring on Annie's finger -"
"I know," interjected Liam. "We actually just talked about it. I wanna be with her. She wants to wait until the time's right. She feels like if we rush it, it won't feel right."
"This is all my fault," added Dixon.
"Dude," replied Teddy. "There was no way you could've predicted your beach house exploding."
"Speaking of explosions," added Liam. "I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch Campbell for what he did to me."
"I'll be standing right beside you," said Teddy, taking a sip of his beer.
Naomi's Mansion:
Annie, Naomi, and Silver lounged around Naomi's dipping pool as they sipped on fresh mimosas.
"I can't believe Adrianna moved out," spat Naomi. "Now I'm officially roommate-less. Can one of you move in with me?"
"I have my own place to take care of," responded Silver, flipping through a magazine.
"I'm back with my parents and Dixon," added Annie.
"How about Liam?" asked Silver.
"We're taking things really slow right now," answered Annie honestly. "He's staying at our old house until we figure things out. We're sort of new about this engagement thing."
"Take it from me," said Naomi. "Don't rush it. Just enjoy the sex, honey!" All girls chuckled.
"Where is Adrianna?" asked Silver.
"She said she couldn't make it today," answered Naomi. "Probably for the best." Annie and Silver stared Naomi down. "What? If I had her face I wouldn't be going out either...I don't blame her, I really don't."
"Naomi," spat Annie.
"Well she's missing out on wonderful mimosas and my dipping pool," responded Naomi. "It's a beautiful day to relax."
"It definitely is," added Silver. "I miss this. I miss just hanging out with my girls." Annie winked at Silver.
"Oh, how I've missed my dipping pool," Naomi sighed. "Manhattan has nothing on LA."
"...What were you doing in New York, Naomi?" asked Annie.
"Yeah. I know you mentioned it to me, but what really happened over there?" added Silver. "You sort of just disappeared." Naomi sat up on her seat and removed her shades.
"Rachel gave me a job. I took the job," explained Naomi. "She needed me to run her company from New York. I actually should be heading back in a couple of days before she completely fires me. I've been having to call my assistant to send me my calls."
"Is that all?" asked Annie.
"...No," muttered Naomi. "I ran into all our mutual ex-boyfriend, Ethan." Annie and Silver shot up from their seats. "Yeah, I know."
"Ethan?" repeated Silver.
"In New York?" asked Annie. "Whoa. What happened?"
"We sort of slept together," confessed Naomi. "For like...a week. But we decided to break it off as soon as we realized that what we were doing was wrong."
"And Jordan knows about this?" asked Silver.
"Yeah," answered Naomi. "That's why he was here last week. To tell me and then break up with me." Silver reached for Naomi's hand. "But like I said...I just need to be me right now. I can never get over Max with another man."
"Max?" muttered Annie. Naomi's lips trembled. "...Naomi...are you still in love with Max?"
The Offshore:
Navid and Old Salty sat down together to review paperwork about the bar.
"I was thinking of removing some of those heavy lights in the back," suggested Old Salty. "Damn, those lights are bright."
"Those damn lights cost me a fortune," responded Navid. "Maybe we can get rid of a few, but not all."
"As long as I'm keeping this place alive," said Old Salty.
"And how's Mark?" asked Navid. "I know he agreed to help out around here before he moved back."
"He's cooking up a mean gourmet taco for my customers," responded Old Salty. "I like him. We should keep him." Navid chuckled. "He's bringing people in."
"Let's talk about the music," added Navid. Adrianna walked in and wandered around the bar. "Actually, hold on that thought. I'll be back. My girlfriend just got here." Navid stood up from his seat and welcomed Adrianna with a soft hug.
"Navid," Adrianna muttered. "Hey." Navid tried leaning in for a kiss, but was suddenly rejected. "I'm sorry, Navid. I just don't feel right, right now. To be honest, my face still hurts and I...I just need some space right now."
"Oh, I'm sorry," apologized Navid.
"It's okay," said Adrianna. "I'm just a little sensitive. Thank you for trying to make me feel better, though. I appreciate it." Navid smiled sweetly. "Have you seen Liam around?"
"Yeah, he's in the back," said Navid. "Why?"
"I just need to ask him for a favor," answered Adrianna. "I'll see you later?" Old Salty looked over his shoulder at an uneasy Adrianna as she walked away to Navid's room.
000
Navid's Room:
Liam was fixing his bike on the balcony as Adrianna stepped in.
"Hey Liam?" called Adrianna, removing her shades. Liam turned around and dropped his tools on the ground. He wiped his greasy hands aggressively on a towel and walked towards her.
"Ade," he said to her. "What are you doing here?"
"I need a favor," desperately explained Adrianna.
"What is it?" asked Liam.
"I know this is going to sound crazy...umm...do you still box?" asked Adrianna quietly. Liam gave her a confused look and stepped back. "I know you use to fight. Navid told me all about it. I know you're good. Like really good."
"And?" added Liam.
"I need you to teach me," said Adrianna. "I need you to teach me how to fight."
Wilson Residence:
Teddy sat comfortably across from Navid, as Dixon sat in front of his computer.
"I can't believe I lost my beach house," muttered Dixon helplessly. "So much for my own independence..."
"Don't sweat it, Dixon," said Navid.
"Yeah," added Teddy. "At least you have your parents here now."
"And they don't know I'm not in school anymore," added Dixon quietly. "My mom is going to freak when she finds out."
"At least your parents don't live in Switzerland," muttered Navid. "I miss my mom's cooking."
"At least your parents still talk to you," added Teddy. "And don't despise you because you're gay..."
"True," said Dixon. "I just feel bad that Annie canceled her Book Tour for me. She's always doing these things for me."
"She's your sister, man," said Teddy. "She'll do anything for you."
"So what's next for you bro?" asked Navid.
"Well I got a phone call the other day from a music producer from the Spencer Blane tribute concert and wants to check out Adrianna," answered Dixon, very hopeful. "He told me she cancelled her tour." Navid had a confused expression on his face. "He still wants to hear some of her songs...but the only problem is my laptop got destroyed along with my beach house and I have no other way of sending any of Ade's old demo."
"That's good news," said Teddy, tossing a tennis ball in the air. "Besides the whole laptop being blown up."
"Just get Adrianna back in the studio," suggested Navid. "...I know she's dying to get back on the stage."
"I'm not worried about getting Adrianna to be my client," said Dixon, turning himself around. "I got a call from the studio the other day. I guess being bankrupt and unsuccessful does contribute to losing my label. I've lost Unfaithful Records..."
"What do you mean?" asked Navid.
"The label failed," muttered Dixon. "I lost my opportunity. The record label is gone and bought. My dream's over."
The Pier:
Annie carefully made her way down the loose docks as the ocean breeze picked away at her long, dark-chocolate waves. Her eyes wandered around the small vicinity for her fiance.
She found Liam waxing a white sailboat in the waters. She smiled warmly as Liam was in his natural habitat.
"I told you I'd be here!" called Annie.
"Annie?" responded Liam.
"What are you doing?" asked Annie, chuckling. Liam reached for her hand and helped her on the boat. "What is this, Liam?"
"It's a sailboat," answered Liam, kissing Annie on the cheek. "I bought it from Old Salty. It's mine."
"You sure buy a lot of things from Old Salty," added Annie. "It's beautiful. But why?"
"...Ever since Campbell put me behind bars," began Liam. "I've just had a lot of anger and mixed emotions built up inside of me. This is my therapy. This -"
"So you're fixing this boat," finished Annie. "I get it it, Liam. I do." He smiled at her. "So when do I get to sail with my man?" He leaned into Annie and held her close to him. She could smell his cologne fill her senses as she reached for his face.
"When it's done," whispered Liam, grinning. "This can be our fresh start." He was so excited. "Thank God there's no Jasper around to ruin anything..." Annie smiled hopefully.
"No one is going to get in between us," added Annie strongly. "I'm sure of that." She whisked the thought away of Patrick Westhill forever. She picked up a rag and began to help Liam clean the sailboat.
