"I wish I didn't, bitch."

LUCIANA HAD GOTTEN forced to go with Topper and Sarah to a beach cleaning event. Basically where you clean beaches for no cost or pay. I thought I would be third wheeling but Sarah had told me Kelce was going to be there which relieved me.

Topper said that Kelce would meet us there, so Sarah and I went with him. We went in his new boat and as we were on our way, the HMS Pogue. I was laying on the boat tanning and as we passed them, JJ splashed water at me and Kie said, "You don't have to act like you don't see us, bitch."

I flipped JJ off and told Kie, "I wish I didn't, bitch."

"You should've heard the way John B talked to me," Sarah says walking next to Topper and I, "That kid's got a mouth on him!"

"Well, he showed his true colors, Sarah." Topper replied.

"He was so rude!" She told him.

"I know! It's what I've been trying to tell you." Topper spoke again, "I mean, he's lucky your dad didn't press charges."

"I know! After stealing scuba from us?" She added, "It's just... kind of ridiculous to me, after everything my dad has done for him."

"Yeah." Topper says.

"Just so generous, you'd think he'd be more grateful," She starts as Topper agrees, "Then he yells at me like it's my fault!"

Sarah was complaining about how John B was being a jerk and Topper just took her side in everything. We were all getting gloves and putting them on. Sarah kept talking and I tuned her out because to be honest I was really out of it. I wasn't joyful and it was kind of a gloomy day, sometimes I get sad for no reason. And no, it's not my period.

Kelce had come up to the group and that shook me out of my thoughts, "Yo. You look thirsty." He said to Topper shaking around a yellow beverage that I was assuming was alcohol.

"Okay, what do we-- what do we got here?" Topper asks.

"Have some of that, baby." Kelce gave the bottle to his friend and stood back waiting for a reaction.

Topper sniffed it and his nose had scrunched up, "Oh my god." The rest of the boys laughed and watched him drink it.

Then a magically Wheezie appeared and stood next to me, she watched as Topper drank the drink and handed it to Sarah.

"What did you do to this." She laughed.

As Sarah drank it Topper added, "He's not playin' around."

Wheezie took the bottle out of Sarah's hand and drank some of it. We all disagreed and took the bottle from Wheezie.

"Since when did you start drinking?" I ask her.

"Since today." She answers wiping her mouth.

"Great going, Kelce." I tell him.

"You guys got it under control?" The man who was running the clean up asked.

We all nodded as Kelce quickly stashed the drink in the lunch bag he brought.

"Yes, sir! It's looking good, sir!" Topper yelled back.

"Just clearing the stretch out!" Kelce adds.

"Just hydrating." Sarah smiles. "Almost finished!"
