My Sun - JJ Maybank

Chapter 78: John B's Fate

Louis left after hearing the radio, grabbing his brothers skateboard and following the Police cars that would passed him. 

He gave a quick excuse to Anne and kissed Leo's forehead before leaving, knowing that he would be back soon, if everything went well that is.

When Louis finally made it to the tents which held SBI agents and all police officers. Henry should be here, Louis thinks. If Henry were here he could of cleared John B's name.

It was night now, the moon and stars shining up most of the sky. The night always seemed to calm Louis, maybe that was why it felt somewhat easy for him to stand outside the tent and yell that he needed to speak to someone about what happened on the Airstrip.

It was an SBI agent that left his post when he heard of Louis yelling. 

Yell gulped when he saw the heavy built man but tried his best to keep his composer. He had to. This was his one chance to save John B.

"I know who killed the Sheriff and Deputy. I know who did it!"

"Not now kid. We don't have time for pranks"

"What! It isn't a prank!  I was there! I saw it! Will you listen to me.. hey, hey listen to me man! I know who killed them and it was John B" The SBI agent doesn't listen and continues to shake his head, tired of teens coming out to him trying to confess that it wasn't their friend.

"Kid not the time-" The agent begins but before he can finish electricity throughout Outer Banks turns back on, that including the lighthouse.

The lighthouse shines throughout the ocean, and in its path, a boat is visible. 

Louis heart sinks when he see's that boat. It looked exactly like the one JJ would talk about late at night. That would explain the keys JJ was getting.

Louis pieced everything together, but he was a minute to late.

 "Hey, we're back up. We got power." Someone yells, causing everyone to start running and getting prepared to capture the accused murderer.

"No.. Hey! Hey listen! It wasn't John! It was Rafe! It was Rafe!" Louis yells, but gets pushed away from the tent by an officer, no one listening to the poor boy but focusing on the boat trying to escape.

Louis doesn't get out of the officers drip until he is pushed into another tent, one that held the rest of the pogues. Louis heart sinks even more at that, they all looked absolutely defeated, much like how Louis was feeling.

Pope and Kie were holding hands under their chairs, making Louis slightly confused. He assumed Pope liked Leo, for Pope's own sake Louis hoped that him holding hands with Kie was just a friendly gesture. Than there was JJ and Mattie, Mattie resting his head on JJ's shoulder, while JJ bits at his nails, his anxiousness getting the best to him.

When Louis gets pushed farther into the tent everyone looks at him, but Louis avoids all possible eye contact he could have with JJ.

Sure John B was JJ's best friend, but Louis still had reason to be pissed at the blonde, even if he was sorry all the pogues were put into a situation like this.

"Will you just listen to me for a second! Please! It wasn't John-"

"Shutup! Just shutup! We are done with your pranks. Just sit down until we give you further notice!" The officer yells, causing Louis to glare and flip the officer off as he walks away.

"Asshole." Louis mumbles, sitting down on the floor because the only two other available seats were between Pope and JJ, than by Mattie.

The storm was getting heavier, and all the teens could hear how the sirens got farther and farther away, scaring them all slightly.
