"good news for residents of Outer Banks. dominion power says their underwater transmission line, which will restore to 90% of the area... should be functional within 24 hours." the radio played, Belle was cuddled up into the seat with JJ still half asleep when JJ jumped up hearing the sirens.
"and still, no arrest in the shooting death of sheriff Susan Peterkin. The state police have issued a statement regarding a local person of interest, a juvenile from-" Kiara shut off the radio everyone sighing.
"let's game this out. maybe you guys can help, being the smart ones and all, but... who are the cops going to believe? Ward Cameron or us?" JJ spoke, Belle turned to her side grabbing the blunt from him smoking the little bit that's left.
"so the accuser is a big shot developer, kind of lord of the island, got the governor on speed dial kind of person, and the accused.. is John B, who is.. pretty much a homeless 16-year-old boy at the moment." JJ finished.
"thanks." John B muttered.
"shit." Pope cursed.
"okay, man. Yucatan, all right? i'm saying that's the only option. what other option do you have?" JJ told John B.
"enough with the Mexico bullshit all right? Sarah will bail me out." John B responded.
"she did witness the whole thing." Kiara said.
"thank you."
"and she's gonna snitch on her brother?" Pope asked.
"she should. the guys insane." Belle said handing the blunt back to JJ.
"not happening, bro. okay? we've gotta get you off the island." JJ told him.
"the ferry. it's the only way." Pope mentioned.
"yeah, exit stage left while you still can, man, okay? before the entire island is on lockdown." JJ sat up looking out the window.
"babe, get down." Belle whispered pulling him down.
"guys, get down." Kiara said, everyone lowered themselves even lower as cop cars sped through.
"Sarah's not a Pogue, John B." Pope reminded the boy.
"yeah. you can't stay here, man." JJ laid back down wrapping his arms around Belle pulling her close to him.
