As the ferry took us to Charleston we sat around the truck. "My parents are so paranoid of me being a pogue, like it's the worst thing that could ever happen." Kie threw her hands up in defeat.
"I think being a pogue is the best thing that's happened to me. In California I would have never been as risky. I was too afraid to let people see the real me but you guys have changed my life." I looked around at all of them.
"We love you B." Kie smiled and side hugged me.
"I'm not going to boarding school. They're gonna have to kidnap me,tie me up, and throw me in a van." Kie stated as she sat straight up.
"Well, I say...we just crumble some herb right now." JJ passed her a blunt he rolled previously.
"Works for me!" I smiled happily.
We discussed how we would attempt to clear John B's name. As of now the only hope we had was the letter.
A couple hours later the ferry arrived at dock. All we had to do was drive. "Guys, i've read this thing like a thousand times and it makes no sense. I mean, the Limbreys own, like, half of Charleston. What do the kook kings know about murder?" Kie tried figuring out what Limbrey could possibly want from Pope. It made no sense to us.
As we tried to figure it out, the truck started to make a hissing noise, which was not good. "Pope! I got sensitive lungs man." JJ said as he rolled up the window.
"Probably from all the weed." I joked and got a death stare in return.
Pope finally pulled the truck over after well panicked. This was definitely gonna interfere with meeting Limbrey.
"My dad's gonna kill me." Pope's face was full or regret.
"Yeah, he might...he might." JJ responded looking back from the truck.
We made it to a small little shop that would possibly be able to fix the truck so we could make it to Charleston. Kie,JJ, and I waited around the truck while Pope talked to the mechanic. Kie was silent while JJ joked around.
"Kie, are you okay? You seem upset." I laid my crossed arms on top of the trucks tailgate and turned my head to face her direction.
"My mom is so worried that i'm gonna be a pogue that she's willing to send me to boarding school." Kie shook her head.
"My parents don't even know what being a pogue is much less what a kook is or that my boyfriend...ex-boyfriend is a murderer and so is his dad." I laughed at the chaotic words that came out.
"Touchè. I mean i'm not gonna go. It's too late anyway. I already am who I am." Kie told us.
"Ain't all that bad. Just look at that guy over there. He would do anything for us. That's a pogue if i've ever seen one. Bone deep. That's just one mans opinion though." JJ took a sip of his flask. That damn flask.
JJ and I waited while Kie went inside with Pope to pay for the truck. I sat on the tailgate and waited.
JJ took another swig from his flask and leaned his back against the tailgate beside me. "So no more Bonnie and clyde?"
"We were never bonnie and clyde. I was just stupid to think he actually cared about me. I obviously cared too much. There's things I wish I would've done differently when I met him." I sighed.
"You can't fix someone Brin. You can try but you don't always succeed. One day he'll realize how pure your heart is and how lucky he should feel to have you in his life and if he doesn't he's stupid. He just has to realize it before he's in jail." JJ laughed.
I shook my head and playfully slapped his arm. "Thanks JJ."
Eventually Pope and Kie came out of the shop. We drove to a field and slept in the bed of the truck. Kie laid beside Pope and I laid next to JJ.
I rolled over on my side facing JJ and whispered to him. "You know I don't hate you, I think it's easier for me to see you as a friend because if I tell you I like you i'll risk ruining our friendship."
"You like me?" JJ quickly turned his head to face me.
I nodded. "Ever since that time at Barry's and I chased you I knew there was something I liked about you but we can never happen." I finished my sentence and felt JJ's face inch closer and closer to mine. I pulled back quickly before he could kiss me and kissed his cheek instead. "Goodnight JJ." I rolled over and went to bed.
