Intro

The Outer Banks. Paradise on Earth.

Hi my name is Liv and I'm from the south side, or the cut. On this side of the island, we have to bust our asses to make a decent living.

Let me introduce you to my crew.

This is JJ, my best friend since the third grade, although my brother will argue that he was his best friend first. JJ spends his time mowing lawns, surfing, and the occasional petty theft. He could sweet talk his way out of just about anything. JJ actually lives with us now, since his abusive father up and left to go god knows where.

This is Kiara, or Kie, as we call her. I like to think of her as a free sole. She's actually a rich kid, unlike the rest of us. Her parents own a restaurant called "The Wreck" which they graciously let me have a job at. Kie helps me TRY to keep the boys tame.

This is Pope, he is definitely the smart one of the group. He wants to go to school to become a forensic pathologist/coroner (a little bit of a weirdo, I know). His father owns Heyward's Seafood, a little seafood/market store here on the island.

This is my twin brother, John B. We have been living on our own since our father died 2 years ago when we were 16. Our mother left us when we were 3. The courts thought our Uncle T was watching over us but he was actually in Mississippi. When we turned 18 he signed the house over to me and I've been trying my best to keep our heads above water.

And that's me. Olivia Raine Routledge, but everyone calls me Liv.

And we're the Pogues.
