Burning (jiara)

In the next

KIE POV

It was sweet of JJ to take me home. I don't know how he turned out to honestly be a gentleman.. well from time to time at least.

I walked towards the stairs and caught my dad staring at me as if he was upset

"What?" I said confused, kinda with an attitude

"Kiara what was that." My dad said sternly

"What was what?" I asked while scrunching my face

"I thought he was your friend." He emphasized on the "friend".

"He is?" I said confused and annoyed

"Kiara" he said while crossing his arms and gave me a stern face. "That boy is not just your friend" he paused "not to him at least"

"What are you tAlking about?" I said while laughing. The idea of me and JJ being anything more than friends was honestly funny.

"Don't do nothin stupid" he said while beginning to point his finger at me "if I find that you and that boy do anything, I'm gonna be mad.. he ain't nothin but trouble"

"Okay dad" I said sarcastically as I started walking up the stairs to my room. I was just humoring him at that point.

JJ POV

I got to my drive way and cut the bike off so my dad wouldn't wake up from the noise. I walk it up to a tree close to the house in case I need to make a break for it in the morning.

I walk inside and find my dad passed out on the couch. Disgusting. Anytime I even see his face it makes me mad.

I went to my room and quietly shut the door trying not to wake him. I locked my door just in case. You never know what his druggy ass might do.

I kick my shoes off and take off my shirt. I then slumped down on my bed and got comfortable. I closed my eyes and tried to drift off to sleep but couldn't. I could never sleep good when I was at my house. All the sudden I hear a ding

Kie: hey JJ

Kie texted me and a smile instantly appeared on my face. I don't why, but I couldn't stop it.

JJ: hey Kie what's up

Kie: I was just wondering... where are you sleeping tonight? You didn't go home did you?

JJ: nope I'm at John b's

Kie: okay just making sure :) goodnight JJ

JJ: goodnight Kie

I couldn't possibly tell her that I was home. Then she wouldn't be able to sleep. She worries to much. She hates when I'm at my dads.

I felt bad for lying but it was best if she thought I was at John b's.

KIE POV

I was extremely relieved. I hate when he goes home. I would hate if any of my friends went home with a dad like that.

I took a shower and went to bed. I couldn't sleep though. I just kept thinking about what my dad had said about me and JJ and cringing. What was my dad even talking about. Sure JJ makes jokes but he would never ACTUALLY like me. That's just weird.

I finally managed to fall asleep and woke up early the next day to get ready to meet John b, JJ, and Pope on the boat like always.

I walked out the door and headed to the dock with the cooler packed with drinks. I waited by the dock on my phone until I heard the HMS pull up.

"Ahoy there" I here John b yell out as he gets closer to the dock

"Permission to board your ship, captain?" I say in a funny accent

"Mm permission granted" John b says while I get on. I look around and paused.

"Where's JJ?" I asked.

"Uhh, I don't know. He wasn't there this morning." John b said

"Oh ok" I said. I knew JJ lied. I was so pissed at him. But mainly concerned. Did his dad do something? Why wasn't he here?

JJ POV

I woke up late. I was terrified. I heard loud music coming from the porch. He was awake, he just didn't know I was there. Perfect. Just perfect.

I was mad at myself for not waking up early enough to sneak out. I guess I'll just have to go through the window and pray to god that he doesn't see me.

This means I also missed the boat.. which means Kie will know that I lied. Fucking. Perfect.

I quietly open my window and sneak over to my bike. I rolled it away from the house and then started it up. I knew my dad probably heard, which means I won't be going back there for another month at least.

I drove to the chateau to see the boat gone. Yep. Kie is definitely gonna be pissed. I walked inside to wait on them to get back. I sat down in the couch and 10 minutes later, I see Sarah fucking Cameron walk out of john b's room.

"Hey chief" she says to me and then began looking at me suspiciously "you look upset, what happened?"

"What? Nothing" I say while having to think id something Was actually wrong. And yea.. there was

"You sure?" She said, ready to have a conversation

I took a deep breath in, knowing that she knew something was up.

"Spill" she demanded as she sat down next to me

"It's nothing really, I just.. I told Kie that I didn't sleep at my house last night and that I was here, but I slept in late and now there on the boat and now she's gonna know." I said all in one breath.

"Oh.. why do you care if she's mad." Sarah said obliviously

"I don't know I just feel bad for lying yk." I say. Immediately after, I cringed at myself. Why was I talking about feelings. "But I don't care yk, I'm just sayin" I tried to cover up the fact that I just said that.

"Umm okay?" She said while looking at me suspiciously "But look, I don't think she'll be mad if you just tell her. Just don't lie about."

Yes. Lie about it. Why didn't I think of that. As long as I come up with a believable story, she won't be mad. Problem solved.

"Your right" I said, zoning back in. "Thanks for the little.. full house pep talk but I gotta go." I say as I got up and walked outside.
