hot tub

Sky woke up with a terrible headache and her whole body hurt. She felt as if a car had run over her.

She groaned and sat up. Outside, it was already dark. She heard voices in the distance, Kie's and maybe   Pope's.

Sky walked to the outside door, standing on everything as she walked. To her surprise, she saw a hot tub, her brother in it. He had sunglasses on and a bottle of alchohol in his hand. He was probably drunk. He didn't seem to noticed her, too focused on talking to Kie and Pope.

"J ? What is going on?" she whispered.

A whisper that her brother seemed to hear, because as soon as he saw her, he jumped out of the hot tub to give her a tight hug.

She felt her brother's tears against her shoulder, he was crying. At first, she didn't understood why. But, she remembered. And it broke her heart, JJ was the stronger of the two, the one who always took care of her. She broke the hug and looked him up and down.

"Oh, your wounds..." she winced.

He laughed, a humorless laugh.

"My wounds? Look at yours." he said.

She knew he felt bad about it. Sky moved closer to him.

"I'm okay."

"No, you're not. Sky- I- I was gonna... I can't take him anymore."

It was at that moment that he broke, that the tears escaped once again.

JJ felt everything spinning, and his heart was beating too fast. He could feel it in his head, and hear it in his ears. He put a hand over his heart to try to calm it down, but his breathing wouldn't stop accelerating. He looked at his hands, which had started to shake.

Sky saw that his brother was probably having a panic attack. She didn't know what to do to calm him down, no one was calming hers. But she did what she wished someone had done. She took her brother's hands.

"Look at me, in the eyes." she said.

JJ didn't look at her, not daring to face her gaze. Why was she consoling her, he was the big brother.

"Look at me, JJ." she repeated, a little louder.

He looked at her.

"Now, breathe. Along with me." she said, taking long, deep breaths. He tried to imitate her, at first it was difficult, but after a few minutes he calmed down.

"Great, you're doing great." Sky said as she gave him a hug.

He stroked her hair with his hand.

"I love you sis." he whispered with a shacky voice.

Sku saw that Pope and Kie had probably gone home to give them some privacy.

"So, are we going in this spa or not ?" Sky said, smiling at her big bro.

"Yes baby, but first. We're going to clean your wounds."

...

John B arrived at the castle, fuming with rage. He should have seen it coming, he hated him, he hated Ward.

He grabbed the gun, and looked at his best friend, Sky, who was sleeping on the couch. The pogues asked why he was taking the gun. "He knows about the gold, he killed my father," he spat.

JJ and Kie were stunned. Ward was known to be respectable, rich and a good man. Him, a killer? 

It sounded strange.

He left the house, without a final regad for the others. He left three teenagers, alone and worried about their friends.
