Thanks for your lovely reviews :)
AmAzEd: It's okay :) Thanks, hope you enjoy this chapter.
I glanced across at Liam, who smirked back at me. "So he's allowed to go through your stuff, but I'm not?" Rick folded his arms, sending the two of us death glares.
"Precisely," Liam chuckled, leaning back against Elektra's bed, "it's an exclusive club mate," Liam winked and I had to force myself to suppress my laughter.
"Right," Rick snapped, sighing heavily, "nice to know you'd pick him over me," he rolled his eyes, "Hamish," I tossed Rick a confused look, "Rick Hamish Barber, if you're looking for baby names," he slammed the door, running down the stairs with several loud thuds. I rolled my eyes, taking in a deep breath.
"I'm going to go after him," I got up, glancing across at Liam, "I suggest you get out of here before Mand- Elektra comes back," I turned to the door. It opened. I spoke too soon. There stood Elektra.
She turned to me, seeming to not yet have noticed Liam yet, "your boyfriend's downstairs, having a right go at anyone that tries to talk to him," her eyes widened at the sight of Liam, who appeared to have completely disregarded the fact that Elektra was right here, "Liam O'Donovan what the hell are you doing rummaging through my stuff?" she bellowed at such a volume I wouldn't be surprised if she had caused an earthquake in Australia or something, yet Liam appeared utterly un-phased.
"Payback," he smirked across at her.
"For what?" she folded her arms, snapping angrily at him, her face turning a nice shade of scarlet that really contrasted her hair.
"Wha' not for?" Liam grinned and Elektra charged at him, however he darted out of the way, leaving Elektra to crash against a wall, "ooh," he muttered as she collided with the wall, emanating a large, disruptive bang and a rather nasty dent in the wall.
Elektra growled turning to face the two of us, "I bet you had something to do with this, Vicky," she shot me a death glare.
"Vicky, eh?" Liam turned to me, grinning wildly, "never did ask ya name," I sighed heavily, irritation spreading through my veins.
"Victoria," I snapped, letting my eyelids fall over my eyes for a few long moments, "it's Victoria."
"Nah, Vicky suits ya better," Liam grinned across at me and I rolled my eyes, turning my attention back to Elektra, knowing exactly where to play my cards next.
"Oh no," I forced myself to suppress the grin of accomplishment that begin to creep over my face, "it was nothing to do with me, Mandy," Elektra's expression turned to one of pure horror and Liam snorted rather loudly.
"Mandy?" Liam let out another snort, "tha's ya real name? Mandy?" Elektra sighed, glancing across the room, "Mandy, that's hilarious," he grinned across at me. A doubt began to creep across my mind - I doubted that Elektra would remain quiet now.
The door opened once again, revealing a whole crowd of kids, with Gina attempting to herd them back. Gina slipped inside, closing the door firmly behind her and glancing across at the three of us, "Liam, man," she took a deep breath and I could tell that this was a quality of Liam O'Donovan she certainly hadn't missed, "why where you going through Elektra's stuff?" Liam shrugged and Gina shook her head sighing, "office," she barked, pointing towards the door and Liam left the room. She looked between the two of us for a few seconds, before turning towards me, "anything else I need to know about?"
I bit my lip, considering as to whether or not I should let information slip. I made eye contact with Elektra, who tossed me a menacing glare and mouthed the words, 'you better not', I took a deep breath glancing once more at Gina, 'or you're dead,' Elektra mimed the action for slitting a throat and I shivered thoughts of my mother, resurfacing once again.
I turned to Gina, "no," I sighed, wondering whether or not I would grow to regret this decision, "nothing at all," I made eye contact with Elektra once more, who smiled and nodded.
Gina sighed, "alright then girls," she made her way towards the door, turning back at the last minute, "no fighting," she scolded.
"I wouldn't dream of it," Elektra pulled on a blatantly fake sweet innocent girl voice, I sighed, rolling my eyes, however Gina didn't appear to notice and simply left the room.
Once she was certain the door was closed, Elektra made her way over towards me, "so, Vicky," she smirked, making eye contact, "this is how it's gonna go," I slowly nodded, unsure what to make of Elektra's 'proposition', "you don't mention anything, to anyone, especially not Liam," why not Liam? A thought crossed my mind; oh no, she couldn't, but- Elektra liking Liam? No. I quickly dismissed the thought. It most definitely wasn't going to happen, "I won't either," I nodded and she held out her hand and I gingerly shook it, "good luck, Vicky."
"Good luck, Mandy," I pulled on a fake smile.
