We had went to go turn in the boat but the guy ended up ignoring John B and JJ so instead we had the genius plan to go to the motel the key was for. We drove up to the motel in the boat and JJ whistled. "I thought The Château looked bad." JJ says.

"This place is a shitshow." John B mentioned, it was really bad.

"Motel or meth lab?" Kiara asked.

"You be the judge." Pope responded.

"Doesn't look like the type of place somebody with a Grady-white stays." I pointed out, standing up front with JJ.

"No. Looks like a place someone with a Grady-white would get killed." Pope says.

"Alright, here we go." JJ says, anchor in hand, "this is your captain speaking, HMS Pogue comin' in for landing." He does the same radio thing from earlier. We both jumped down and stopped the boat from going too far "Whoo!" Then JJ dealt with the anchor.

"We good?" John B asks.

"Yeah, we're good." I tell him.

"All right, here goes nothin'." He says, getting down.

"Hey." Pope says.

"Yeah?"

"Don't let him do anything stupid?" He says, pointing at JJ, "and don't let her encourage him to do anything stupid." He repeats, but pointing at me.

"Oh, we will."

"I'm not making promises." John B says.

"Yeah, I know."

"Be careful." Kie says to him, she didn't even spare a glance at me or even JJ, she handed him the key. "I mean it."

John B looked lovestruck, I rolled my eyes and started walking. He chuckled a yeah and patted JJ, "let's go, catch up with Y/N." He said. "Why are all these mattresses out here."

"After a hurricane, they ditch 'em 'cause they're moldy." JJ says, one smart thing actually said by that kid. As we were walking down the hall JJ was picking on John B for Kie being so soft with him.

"Just be so careful, John B." He says, grabbing his face.

"God, you're so weird." He says.

"Honestly, what the heck was that about?" JJ blurts out.

"I don't know. Maybe she wants us to be careful." He responded to him.

"Since she heard you're being threatened with exile, she's been, like, 'Oh! Be so careful, John B!'" He moaned, why did that give me butterflies, how am I supposed to know.

"Get off." He tells him, shrugging JJ's hands off his shoulders.

"Right, Y/N?" He asked me, draping his arm around my neck. "Tell him, she's all over him." He pleads.

"She's all over you dude." I tell him, he rolled his eyes.

JJ grinned. "'Oh, just give me that John D already.' Like when are you gonna swoop on that, man?" He asks him.

"Bro, you know the rule. No Pogue-on-Pogue macking." He says. JJ groaned, for some reason he always hated that rule and he always used the excuse that it was cause Kiara was all over John B. That it had nothing to do with him or how he felt about it. Personally, I hated it. "Besides, you're the one always hitting on her."

"Dude of course I'm hitting on her." He says, taking his arm off me. "She's a super hot, rich, hippie chick slumming with us. Why? I can't figure it out either, but who cares, bro? I know that door is locked because I've tried it, have you?" He asked him, I sighed in the back, I know I always say how we'd just friends, but in all honestly, I was just in denial. I did have a thing for JJ and it sucked to see him talk the way he does.
