TW: more Rafe harassing Liz, maybe some physical abuse?

JJ turned to face me. His jaw dropped, I swear it couldn't have opened any wider. "Wha- Liz you can't do that" was all he could say. He was speechless. "J, It's safer... Plus it's only for a few months until this all blows over" I shrug. "John B already has to leave, I can't loose you too. You have to stay, I can't be without you" he states.

"It's ok, we can still write to each other. Address it Beverly and Bennett, just like midsummers" I say with a smile. He couldn't help but smile at the memory. "But Liz, we're JJ and Lizzie we can't be apart" he says. "We won't be apart, here take one of my bracelets as proof" I give him my wrist to remove one of my bracelets. He picks the blue one.

"Remember when we made these? It was like 6th or 7th grade or something?" He asks as he admires the bracelet "Sure do, I made a blue one while you made the purple one. We picked each other's favorite colors" I laugh. "You still have yours?" I ask. He holds up his wrist to reveal the faded purple bracelet. "Of course I do Liz" he replies.

Just then we hear police sirens. He turns to face the road in front of us. "Whoa whoa whoa" he says as we meet three police cars on the road. JJ slides back in his seat and turns his face. Totally forgot he still hadn't paid restitution. I lean back in my seat a bit, trying to act normal.

"If we don't get pulled over with a car looking like this then I don't know what will" I mumble. "This thing looks like it's been involved in a hit and run" I add. "Baby... it has" JJ looks at me and we both laugh, totally forgetting about the conversation we had moments before.

We arrive and JJ unlocks the garage where me and him have spent many times before, weather it was smoking weed after school or even drunk hookups after keggars. "Hasn't changed a bit" I say, following the blonde into the building. "I'm pretty sure we were the last ones here" JJ laughs. I smile at him.

"There she be" he says, looking at the large boat parked in the middle of the room. "Ah yes, the phantom" I giggle remembering all the times he's told me about that thing. "Hey girl" he says, removing the tarp that was draped over the front.

"A 1983 Formula 402 SR1... the phantom" he tells me. I always loved when that boy found something interesting, he would tell me all about it and I would just listen.

"The first boat to make the run to Bermuda in under 16 hours Liz... forty years old! Forty... and still the fastest thing that Kildare's ever seen" He says, looking between the boat and me. "I wish I had a boat that held a county record" I laugh. "Well when you get back we can take her for a ride, that's of course after we go full kook" he smiles. "Yep, when I get back"

"I just hope she runs" I say as he starts to mess with the trailer hitch. "Oh no she'll run alright... she's faster than any of the cutters the boys in blue got" he replies. Suddenly I hear a motorcycle approaching.

"Pope, Kie finally you guys made up" I say, going around the side of the boat to greet them. I stop when Rafe comes into view. "Hey there, what's goin' on Lizzie? JJ? How you guys doin'?" Rafe asks. "I was fine until you got here, thanks for ruining it" I reply crossing my arms.

Barry soon comes in the door behind JJ. "Well Well" he says. He then aims a gun at my boyfriend. I go to get in front of him but Rafe grabs me by my waist. JJ raises his hands and looks directly at the gun. "Rafe gets your hands off of me" I tell him. He doesn't listen.

"See, don't think I forgot about me and you on the side of the road" Barry tells JJ. "I'm here because I want my mother fucking money!" He yells before lunging at him and knocking him to the ground. "JJ!" I yell, but Rafe holds onto me tighter. "Let me go!" I yell. He picks me up by my waist and starts to carry me away from the situation.

"JJ! Rafe put me down!" I yell again, not taking my eyes off the blonde who was getting his head smashed up against the concrete floor. Barry grabs him by his hair. "That's what I'm here for!" He yells. Before letting go of his hair and kicking him in the torso.

"That's not who we want Liz alright where's John B?!" Rafe asks more aggressively. "Let go of me!" I ignore. Barry continues to kick JJ on the floor. "Stay down, boy" he tells him. Rafe let's go of me before pushing me up against the side of the boat. "Answer the damn question Elizabeth" he mumbles. I push him away. "I don't know!" I yell before slapping him across the face.

"I really wish you didn't do that" he says, getting closer to me. "Rafe I know what you did" I tell him. "What? What did I do that was so bad?" He asks. "You killed Peterkin, and then you pinned it on my brother. I thought you were still in love with me? hmm? Cause that's definitely out the window" I scoff. He just looks at me and pauses before grabbing me by the throat.

"Don't you ever say those fucking words again.... I do love you, understand?" He asks. JJ's punched by Barry as the two were still fighting. "Do you understand?! Where's John B?" Rafe asks again. "I don't know!" I yell back. JJ finally takes Barry down and runs as fast as possible over to me. He grabs a tool and hits Rafe in the back.

"Don't touch her! Don't ever come near her again, you hear me?!" He yells. Rafe gets back up and punches JJ in the face. JJ grabs him by the shirt and starts repeatedly punching him. "J" I say. He doesn't stop. "JJ" I say a little louder. "JJ! Cut it out!" I yell. He doesn't listen. "JJ! Look at me!" I yell. Rafe was practically on the ground. The blonde who was still catching his breath looks at me. "We gotta go" I tell him. He nods and follows me to the car.

The ride over was silent. JJ had a lot on his mind, and I didn't want to bother him. We met up with Pope and Kie at the docks like we said we would. "Keep coming Liz!" JJ directs me as I help him put the boat in the water. Finally, we got it in there.
We waited for a good 10 minutes for my brother to arrive.

Suddenly, a police cruiser pulls in in front of us. "JJ!" Kie yells. "Hey, yeah. Get back on the boat. Get back on the boat. Untie it" he tells the three of us. "Shit" Kie mumbles. I look through the tinted windshield.

"Wait guys, it's him" I say.
