my brothers best friend

The Lucky Compass

John B's POV:

John b is out on the couch when there's Jj knocks on the window.

DCS! I know you're in there!

Woah Jj

You should have seen your face. Your face was like... Jj trails on. I'm just saying, I don't understand why you don't at least try with Kiara.

She clearly likes you, Sophia adds.

She's like, "Oh, John B." Jj says in his best Kiera voice.

Is that what she does? I ask.

She's sketching about you diving, then she kissed you, Sophia says.

She kissed me on the cheek, I clarify.
It's not like we were makin' out. Low-hanging fruit, bro.

Don't pretend you don't notice, Soph says.

I see it in your eyes. Jj says You're like, "I kinda like that," and you start blushing.

Jj picks up the compass and is playing with it when John B grabs for it.

I gotta admit, your father's compass in Scooter's boat, that's freaky, Jj says.

Yeah. That's why we're going to talk to Ms. Lana, figure this whole thing out.

I'm sure she would just love to talk to us
Jj says,
It's not like her husband just drowned or anything.

Sophia's POV:

(My hair was wet because I just got out of the shower.)

Jj and John b are walking towards the door when Jj asks if I'm coming.

Nope, I'm getting coffee with Kie but you boys have fun.

A little after they leave Kiera pulls up in her jeep and I hop in.

*at the cafe*

So what's going on between you and John B? I ask.

Nothing, we're just friends she says

Really? Because I don't go around and kiss my friends

I kissed him on the cheek it isn't like I made out with him or anything.

Whatever you say Kie.

While we're on the topic what's up with you and Jj? She asks

Ha! You're funny

I'm serious! she says, you guys are always flirting.

Kie he hates me, if I wasn't John B's sister I think he'd be a lot more open about it.
