Think Of Me ~ JJ Maybank ~ Outerbanks

Alex lay with her head resting in JJ's chest, his arms wrapped around her. He was slowly breathing, and she was carefully watching him to be certain he was asleep. He pulled her closer, groaning in his sleep. She squeezed her eyes shut, not wanting to wake him.
The boy turned, so he was on his back, and she was still on top of him.
"Mmm- Lex? Oh, um, are you okay?"
She nodded into his chest, not knowing if she could face the embarrassment.
"What happened last night?"
"Uh, we didn't- if that's what you're thinking- we didn't, um, have sex. All I really know is you got drugged? And then you were here."
"Oh, right."
JJ frowned, and sat up, "who drugged you, cause I swear I will-"
"I can't remember," she muttered.
"Oh, yeah, that makes sense. Well we should go, John B probably has the tanks."
The boy climbed out of bed and tossed Alexis one of his t-shirts and a pair of her shorts that happened to be lying around.
As she sat up, she groaned and clutched her head.
"Headache?"
She nodded, and pulled on her clothes.

JJ went to get the others, whilst Alex climbed into the pogue, and lay down.
"Is she asleep?"
"I think so."
"Okay then shut up- don't wake her up dumbass."
JJ noticed Kiara glaring at him, "it wasn't me who drugged her, come on Kie, I would never do that. It was probably one of Rafe's boys or a touron or something. I mean everyone loves her."
"Doesn't mean she should get drugged."
"Yeah, I know."
They sat silently staring at the girl.
"She's been, she's been like off this week. There's something wrong, isn't there?"
Pope looked at JJ expecting him to answer.
"What?"
The three looked at the blonde boy, before bursting out laughing.
"What? Why are you laughing?"
Just as the boat stopped over the wreck, and John B had submerged, Alex started to stir.
"Oh, hi guys."
"How are you feeling?"
"Thirsty."
JJ tossed her some water, but was met with an eye roll. He threw a beer.
"You two don't go getting drunk, we don't need another argument."
She shrugged, sitting with her back against JJ's chest. "Is John B under?"
"He just went down."
"Does he even know how to dive?"
JJ took a swig of his beer, "that's unclear."
A siren sounded from behind them.
"Shit JJ."
"Guys, that's the police."
"What do we do?"
Alexis got up and walked over to Kie, "just act normal, I'll handle it." She whispered in the brunette girls ear, who nodded.
