A HEARTWARMING LOVE STORY ABOUT TWO PEOPLE.

Naomi Campbell and Emily Fitch. Mrs and Mrs Campbell. Their story begins with once upon a time and ends with they lived happily ever after. They've loved each other since they were twelve years old, and though it was love at first sight, they were both too scared to tell each other how they felt. So Naomi ran and Emily chased. Emily saw something in Naomi that no one else did and that was what made her keep loving and chasing Naomi after so many years. And no matter how hard Naomi tried to deny her feelings or how fast or far she ran, she always ended up back with Emily.

They were each others' first and last kisses and each others' first and only loves. It was only when Naomi stopped running that they could become something. It was only when Emily took a chance and kissed Naomi again, that their story really began. Emily kissed Naomi and Naomi ran again, but not for long, because she realized that her feelings weren't something that could be pushed aside and ignored. They made love by a lake, held hands through a cat-flap, kissed breathlessly against a row of lockers, and laid their souls bare at the Love Ball.

But that wasn't the end. Like all epic love stories, things were never simple. They spent the best summer of their lives together, but as the summer ended, so did their happiness, and slowly their relationship began to unravel. Emily kept giving and Naomi kept taking, until they tore each other apart. Emily became the runner and Naomi, the chaser. But no matter what happened, they couldn't stop loving each other and they couldn't stay away.

They fought and cried and stripped each other of everything until nothing was left but love. Real, true love. Their journey was perilous and heartbreaking and more than they could bear at times, but it was all worth it in the end. They couldn't have gotten there -- the end, where their story both ended and began anew -- without the journey. And like every fairytale, like every epic love story, their story ended and began with a kiss.

And so, heartfelt declarations aside, they'll love each other forever. Soulmates. Lobsters.

#1 | Naomi, 306

Emily: I can see it now, in lights: Naomi, get to know me.
Naomi: I thought it was quite catchy.
Emily: Yeah, well, so's AIDS.
Naomi: Do you think I can do it?
Emily: I think you can do anything.

#2 | Naomi, 306

Naomi: Can we go somewhere? Anywhere.

#3 | Naomi, 306

Emily: Do you want to do blowbacks?
Naomi: I never got blowbacks. Why can't people just smoke the damn thing straight?
Emily: It's fun. Have you even tried it?
Naomi: No. But, being all-seeing, I already know it's s**t.
Emily: Come on, everything once.

#4 | Naomi, 306

Naomi: Say something.
Emily: I'm all about experiments, me.

#5 | Naomi, 306

Emily: I know you, Naomi. I know you're lonely. I think you need somebody
to want you. Well, I do want you. So, be brave. And want me back.

#6 | Naomi, 306

Naomi: I do want someone -- need someone. You were right.
Emily: And?
Naomi: And, when I'm with you, I feel like I'm a better person. I feel happier,
less ... alone. Less lonely. But it's not that simple, is it? Being with someone.
Emily: Isn't it?
Naomi: No. I mean, I don't know. I mean, I don't think so.
Can't we just sit like this? For a bit?
Emily: Yeah, we can. For a bit.

#7 | Effy, 308

JJ: You ladies like to wriggle, don't you?

#8 | Katie & Emily, 309

Naomi: Let's just be friends, okay?
Emily: We say that, don't we?
Naomi: Yeah. Have a good summer.
Emily: I'll miss you.
Naomi: I can't stand it. I can't.

#9 | Katie & Emily, 309

Naomi: Don't do that ...
Emily: No, you don't do that. I'm not your fcking experiment! ... I'm tired --
so sick and tired of it. We're still holding hands through a cat-flap, aren't we?

#10 | Katie & Emily, 309

Emily: I like girls. No, I like a girl. No. I love her. I love ... her.

why we love emily & naomi :
Why do we love Emily and Naomi? It's pretty easy to see why: they're made for each other. They've loved each other since they were both twelve years old, and while the journey was never easy, they never gave up and they never stopped loving each other, no matter what. Naomi and Emily are unique in the world of Skins, because the hugeness of their love is just so profound. Every time they tried to break apart, they just came back together again, bound even tighter than before. Their love is unrivaled in the Skins universe; there is no other couple that can compare.

And that doesn't just apply to the Skins universe. There is no other lesbian couple in the history of television that has had a story and love as great as theirs -- they rank among one of the most epic love stories of all time in any world, ever. They have made people believe that there is someone out there for them, made them realize that being gay is not only normal and okay, but that gay couples are just like heterosexual couples. And gay couples and characters, just like in real life, can be happy. Emily and Naomi have given strength to countless people, encouraging them to be open and honest. To just be themselves. No other couple can make that sort of claim.

Emily and Naomi love each other, so we love them. They bring out the best in each other, and even if their romance hasn't always been lovely and sweet, they've always managed to endure the rough spots and come out as a stronger couple than before. Naomi gives Emily confidence and Emily lets Naomi be herself. They support each other, they are each others' shadows; it's easy to see why they're so in love. They're beautiful together, and that's why we love them.

why we love lily & kathryn :
LilyKat -- they're the actresses who made Emily and Naomi as epic as they were. Kathryn Prescott (Emily) and Lily Loveless (Naomi) originally met at drama school together and then three years later found themselves in Skins, playing best friends and lovers. Kathryn and Lily are best mates; they spent most of their time on set together and frequently attend events together. They're as awesome as their fictional counterparts. Kathryn has said that Lily knows her the best and Lily has said that Kathryn is the one she gets along with best. Naomi and Emily could not have been nearly as great without Lily and Kathryn.

Kathryn and Lily are of course the biggest shippers of Naomi and Emily. When Naomi cheated in Series Four, Kathryn and Lily actually had arguments about it. They genuinely care about their characters and their fans, and it really shows. They've both said that they love their characters and are glad that Naomi and Emily's story was so groundbreaking; they are happy that the story they told made people feel comfortable about themselves and love and sexuality. Neither of them can see anyone else playing their characters, and neither can we.

the Naomily story took on its own life
The ending I wrote for Naomily is the first thing I thought of two years before.
Where I finished is where I started with the whole relationship.
― BRYAN ELSLEY, WRITER

it was always between them.
It's kind of sad, and it's kind of beautiful: that Naomi has been trying to work out
what that love is for 6 years.
― JAMIE BRITTAIN, WRITER

i knew they would find a way.
I wanted to say in one image that they have just had the best summer of their lives.
― ED HIME, WRITER

kindred souls.
It's a love story about a girl who doesn't want to be in love.
― JACK THORNE, WRITER

yes, it is enduring love.
This series was basically Emily and Naomi beating the crap out of each other nearly the
whole time. They were bloody and bruised but saying I still love you. It's beautiful to know
that as a couple you have been tested in that way and come through it.
― ED HIME, WRITER

a beautiful relationship.
They'd be married and travelling the world, because that's what they want to do.
― LILY LOVELESS & KATHRYN PRESCOTT

the simplicity of their dynamic.
In the end what they realized that is, if you get it right, there's something gloriously simple
and liberating about love. It was always between them, but it took some time for them to realize.
― JAMIE BRITTAIN, WRITER

to be continued ...

tftnt Lisa

still not over that trailer

and now 90% of people on tumblr are convinced Naomi's gonna die and are freaking out.

Skinsfan · 06-20-2013, 11:17 AM

I needed to take a little break away from the computer to chill out. That trailer has wrecked my head. Not because I think Naomi's going to die. Just all the emotion I know is coming.

Lily and Kat's Q&A from earlier. Massive post so most questions will go under the spoiler tags for space. I'll post the really relevant ones first.

Quote:

Would you have returned to skins individually if one of you didn't want to?

It would have been weird to have had one of them back and not the other so yes I would have thought twice (Kat)

---------------------------

Describe Skins Fire in 3 words?

ambition, failure, friendship

---------------------------

Would you ever do a naomily spin off?

I think revisiting the characters for Fire was a good time to say goodbye

-------------------------

How do you feel about this season being the last one?

Sad but good to get closure

------------------------

Why was Emily in NY? I read the plot for Skins7

Emily is in NY doing a photography internship

-------------------------

How is Fire different from The Skins we know?

it's far more grown up and shows how who you were when you were young can affect who you grow to be

-------------------------

@Skins how excited are u to skins 7??

yes, can't wait to hear what you all think!

--------------------------

What was the biggest difference for Skins Fire compared to season 3 and 4?

It's older and more mature

--------------------------

What do you think about idea of the main characters being young adults instead of teenagers?

It's good because everyone has to grow up, no one can stay an adolesent forever.

-------------------------

FOR LILY, We knew you as a shy one, how did you manage to be a stand up comedian as they said you were in SKINS FIRE?

I trained with a proffesional stand up comedian for three days, so had lots of practice

------------------------

What was it like working with each other again?

weird because we now know each other as kat and lily more than emily and naomi

-----------------------

how did you feel in your last scene? I mean, it should be hard to think that you had already finished your role in Skins.

It felt sad the first time it ended but this time we were more prepared and it wasn't so much (kat).

------------------------

Would you like to have seen any other characters in skins7?

I would've like to have seen what happened to Katie

------------------------

Did you rewatched skins 3 and 4 to prepare yourself to play Emily and Naomi again?

no we did not

------------------------

how did you feel in your last scene? I mean, it should be hard to think that you had already finished your role in Skins.

It felt sad the first time it ended but this time we were moren prepared and it wasn't so much (kat).

-------------------------------

for kat- was it weird not having meg on set?

Yes very, I would have really like to have seen what happened to her character

---------------------------------

how do you feel about the naomily fan base?

We have the nicest fans!

--------------------------------

You guys are trending worldwide!! How do you feel about that?

Amazing!

--------------------------------

When is the new series starting??

July 1st, 10pm E4

-------------------------------

where will you be when watching the premiere? :-)

we're having a big farewell skins party to celebrate it!

------------------------------

is this the last ever series of skins?!

yep!

Spoiler:

I think Kat saying they wouldn't have come back without the other is a positive sign. Because if they thought just coming back solo would be weird, they wouldn't agree to ending with Emily solo.

Also positive is Lily's talk of closure and it being a good time to say goodbye. None of that gives off bad vibes.

Right there with you. It's great seeing them in the trailer but I know Skins is gonna put us through the ringer cause that's what they do. I'm pretty sure in that clip with Naomi and Effy in the snow where she's wearing a hat she has hair and it's not shaved off or anything, so I don't think anything too serious happens. Enough to get us all freaking out whilst we wait a week for pt but that's about it.

saw these stills on Tumblr

Oh and AE

Psst. We’ve got an interview with Lily Loveless and Kathyrn Prescott coming your way tomorrow, plus some photos we don’t think you’ve seen yet for Skins Fire.

Skinsfan · 06-20-2013, 11:41 AM

I CAN'T TAKE IT. I can't take all this new imput. My brain is about to explode!

Quote:

Naomi and Emily hug it out, break your heart all over again in the "Skins Fire" trailer

The full Skins Fire trailer is here at last, and gird your souls, muff monkeys, because it looks like Naomi and Emily are going to break our souls into a million pieces all over again.

It's cool, you guys. I actually like for my heart to be shattered. In fact, here, I'm just going to take a baseball bat (still too soon?) to my own feelings and beat the **** out of them.

Quote:

I interviewed Lily Loveless and Kathyrn Prescott (and snagged some never-before-seen photos) this morning, so look for that tomorrow, and I'll be speaking to Skins Fire writer Jess Brittain early next week. I'm also working on getting you guys an exclusive clip, so stay tuned. In the meantime, let's hold hands through the cat flap and try to stay alive. Fire premieres on E4 on July 1st at 10:00 pm.

SRBleyton4ever · 06-20-2013, 11:43 AM

I know

I really don't know how I'm gonna get through Fire. I'm already a burst of emotions and that's just with the trailer & pictures.

I said I wanted character content. And I meant it. I just didn't mean all in the same 24 hours!

My brain is bouncing in my skull.

SRBleyton4ever · 06-20-2013, 11:51 AM

With Skins we must remember to always be careful what we ask for cause if we're not we get an emotional overload. They look so pretty in that trailer and I just want the episode now. Damn you stupid Made In Chelsea. I usually like you cause you have cool music plus a lot of pretty ladies, but everyone's already seen the end of season party on 4od. So why the fck do you have to be on this Monday as well

I'd hope that Skins would be nice to us and put pt 1 on 4od a week ahead like they did with the season 6 premiere. But they're not that nice.

I wanted emotion and I wanted stuff. I didn't want my brain melted. They've melted my brain! Over three years in waiting other than a couple of pics and they start bombarding us with stuff all in 24 hours. OVERLOAD

I think Fire is going to be good. But kick us in the gut, strangle our heart, make us cry and then give us endgame kind of way.

Skinsfan · 06-20-2013, 12:02 PM

Look at the coupley and loving smile Naomi is sending Emily's way

They still love each other so fcking much

Emily will emotionally die if something serious is wrong with Naomi. And if Naomi doesn't tell her to protect her she's going to be pissed, scared and wrecked when she finds out her lover is in hospital.

I have a feeling Naomi crying will include Emily being talked about

Their reunion scene will kill us. Then their happy ending will as well. Because I believe they're getting one after all the drama.

I have no doubt they're gonna get a happy ending cause they've been so positive about them, and they're only in Fire for fan service so what'd be the point in killing Naomi off.

I was SOOOOOOOO wrong about Jess possibly not getting their dynamic right. And worrying what ever scenes we got they wouldn't have enough coupley affection. There will so be a kiss, ILU's and probably hand holding. Jess, don't kill Naomi and give us at least another couple of scenes for them and I will fcking LOVE you.

Lily and Kat said they were excited for us to see it. That doesn't say 'oh we killed Naomily off'

The emotion of their scenes and Naomi's ones will kill us. OMG Emily in the taxi will rip our hearts out.

Gahhhh I'm getting emotional just thinking about it. That and squeezing like fck.

Quote:

I was worried myself both about bringing Naomily back and Jess as the writer. But from the trailer and all the interviews we've read, Fire looks really good as do Naomily so maybe the early pessimism was a bit premature.
