Shani Hughs was Huw's first girlfriend. He meets at the National School. Shani is described as kind and nurturing. Her family moves away as a result of the miner's strike.

Ceinwen Phillips loves Huw from afar.... and follows him endlessly, finding any reason she can to visit the neighborhood where she just might run into him. Eventually, Ceinwen seduces Huw, and he loses his virginity to her on the mountain.
