"Well" Charlie exclaimed as she waited for Brax to answer.
"Its Johnny's baby" Brax lied, he had no idea what made him say it, but under pressure it was the only thing he could come up with.
"Oh my god, no wonder she didn't want to tell him the truth" Charlie gasped "She must have been terrified"
"Yeah, that's why I told him what I did, Johnny would never let her go if he knew" Brax explained or rather lied. "Besides, it's not a bad thing for us either"
Charlie looked confused, "What's that supposed to mean?" she asked curiously.
"Well if people think I'm with Aaliyah, they won't come asking questions about us will they?" Brax grinned as he pulled Charlie towards him and kissed her passionately.

It had been just over a week since Aaliyah came home from hospital. She was shocked by the support she had received from the residents of Summer Bay. Irene and Colleen brought her food regularly. Leah would pop over in the evening to keep her company and the Braxton's took care of childcare, well Heath mainly.
Aaliyah was grateful for all the help she was getting, although it did make things for her and Casey difficult. They had hardly seen each other since she got home. Things in the Braxton house weren't great either. Heath had moved back to his mums to get away from Brax, and Casey was hardly speaking to either of them. Aaliyah couldn't help but feel bad about the whole situation; she was responsible for this whole mess.
While she was thinking about the whole mess, she was interrupted by a knock at the door. Aaliyah slowly stood up and answered it. Standing in front of her with a half smile was Bianca "We need to talk" she said as she barged past Aaliyah. Aaliyah shut the door behind her before heading over to sit down.
"What's up?" Aaliyah asked curiously.
"I bumped into Charlie on the beach last week, and I have been waiting for you to tell me yourself but obviously that's not going to happen, so here it goes" Bianca ranted "Are you having Darryl Braxton's baby?"
Bianca's outburst shocked Aaliyah a little. "Well" Bianca added eagerly. Aaliyah dropped her head. "Oh my god you are, aren't you?" Bianca exclaimed.
"Please B, you can't tell anyone" Aaliyah pleaded for her friend's silence.
"Of course I won't say anything sweetie" Bianca replied sincerely "How do you feel about it?" she added.
"I really don't have a clue. Listen I know you're only try to help but would you mind if we talk about something else. I don't want to think about this right now" Aaliyah smiled.
"Ok well, I have arranged for some of the girls to come over to yours tonight for a girly night in" Bianca beamed. Aaliyah wasn't sure but she decided a girl's night would be a good distraction, so she reluctantly agreed.

As Heath walked into the surf club he was surprised by what greeted him. On the notice board was a picture of Aaliyah wearing not a lot. It was an advertisement for a lapdancing bar in the city called Crystal. Heath quickly ripped the poster down; as he looked around he noticed about 6 other posters. Heath ripped them all off the wall and headed upstairs to Angelo's.
Brax was behind the bar stocking up on spirits. "Hey, I thought you should know I just found this downstairs" Heath said as he threw the picture on the bar in front of Brax. Brax's eye's widened at the revealing photo. "How many of these did you find?" he questioned curiously.

Aaliyah was just sitting down for her lunch when Casey came barging in the door. In his hand he had about 20 sheets of paper. It wasn't until he put them on the table that Aaliyah realised what they were "Oh my god where did you get these?" she exclaimed as she picked up the pictures of herself. They were the same ones Heath had found earlier in the surf club.
"They were plastered all over the school, and I found these ones in the diner" Casey replied. Aaliyah was surprised Casey wasn't angry about the pictures.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry" Aaliyah quickly apologized to Casey.
"Who would do something like this?" Casey exclaimed. Aaliyah thought for a moment "I'll give you one guess" she replied looking at Casey "Lexi" they bother said at the same time.
Aaliyah made Casey a sandwich, it was the least she could do. "I can't believe you're not angry about this" she said as she handed him the plate. Casey put the plate down on the table "How can I be, it's in the past and lets face it we've all done something in our pasts we're not proud of" he said as he turned to face her.
Aaliyah smiled "You're amazing you know that?" she replied. Casey's face filled with a cheeky grin "Yeh, I know; besides there is a way you can make it up to me"
"Oh yeah" Aaliyah returned Casey's cheeky grin.
"You still have this outfit right?" Casey beamed as he pointed at the outfit Aaliyah was wearing in the picture. Aaliyah hit Casey playfully, before kissing him. Casey moved on the sofa so he was now laid on top of Aaliyah. They kissed passionately, as they undressed each other.

Later that night Bianca, Irene, Colleen, Leah, Gina and Roo had all arrived at Aaliyah's house. Riley was next door with Brax and Casey, they were having a 'boys' night. Riley had some how managed to persuade Brax and Casey to watch all three Toy Story films.
After the drinks started flowing Bianca came up with as plan "Why don't we play Never have I ever" she suggested.
"Hey that's not fair B, you can't drink" Aaliyah teased.
"Neither can you" Bianca quickly replied before realizing what she had said. "I don't think alcohol and pain meds are a good idea" she added quickly.
"I'm sorry" Bianca mouthed silently to Aaliyah who threw her a glare.
"Ok but what do you have to do" Colleen asked, she had never played this game before.
"Right, someone says something they have never done like for instance Never have I ever been shot" Bianca explained "Then if there is someone in the room who has been, like Aaliyah, then she would have to take a drink from her cup"
"So what if no-one else has done that thing either" Colleen questioned.
"Well then you take a sip" Bianca added "Are we ready?" she asked the women.
"Ok I'll go first" Gina announced "Never have I ever been arrested"
Bianca, Aaliyah, Irene and Roo all took a drink from there cups. The woman all laughed.
It was Aaliyah's turn "Ok, Never have I ever married a prince" she said as she looked at Bianca. "Why aren't you drinking?" Aaliyah questioned her quickly.
"Well technically neither have I, we never said I do" Bianca giggled as she watched Aaliyah take a sip of her own drink. "Right my turn never have I ever, had sex right outside my house"
The whole room filled with silence before gasping, as Aaliyah took a sip of her drink.
"Oh my goodness" Colleen cried in horror.
All the other women laughed "When?" Bianca exclaimed. Aaliyah blushed and said nothing.
"Oh come on girly spill" Irene laughed.
"Alright fine" Aaliyah said finally "It was about 18 months ago, I met this guy. We went out one night, and on the way home things got a bit heated. I lost my keys" she explained with a cheeky smile on her face.
"So then what happened?" Leah asked eagerly.
"We had sex up against the front door" Aaliyah winced as the women all fell about laughing. Colleen looked mortified
"You naughty girl" Bianca teased as she looked at Aaliyah.

The next morning Bianca and Aaliyah arranged to meet at the Diner for coffee. It was the first time Aaliyah had been out since the shooting. As she sat talking to Bianca, Aaliyah was shocked to see a familiar face walk into the dinner.
"Oh my god" she gasped as she watched the man walk over to the counter.
"What?" Bianca asked quietly.
"Don't look now but Mr Front Door is standing right behind you" Aaliyah blushed.
"Where?" Bianca giggled as she looked behind her. As she saw the man she was shocked. She recognized him instantly…
