  Summary

  An AU fic based on my other Menendez Brother fics in this series but it is a stand-alone story. What if Erik Menendez wasn’t Erik but a teenage girl called Erika?
  Two raped boys…raped again by the system in court when they were forced to tell the world what their parents did to them and then given life in prison without chance of parole. As if that wasn’t punishment enough, they were cruelly separated for 22 years when all they had had was each other.
  Now imagine they were little girls. At most they were young women when they killed their parents.

  Or what if Lyle didn’t have a brother but a younger sister called Erika instead?

  Summary

  Flash Forward

  Going to jail while they waited for their court date was scary but at least Erik and Lyle had each other.
  But did they?

  'Jailbirds' describes their time in jail and the aftermath after killing their parents. ‘Bird’ is also British slang for a girl or a woman. Ha ha

  Summary

  Ste and Brendan from about 10 years ago. I stopped watching Hollyoaks for years because I honestly felt it was rubbish but have recently discovered the old Ste and Brendan Brady storyline - thinking how could I have missed it?

  I can't get enough of them! Both are beautiful and amazing actors. Complex characters. Their back stories are so fascinating and similar the chemistry between them sizzles.

  Any reviews (Fanfic) or kudos/comments (Archive of Our Own) would be gratefully received.

  I plan to continue this story.
