Broken promises ~ JJ Maybank ~ Sequel to Promises

Chapter eight ~ Dry Drowning

We kept screaming to kie all of our questions,

Ki: you guys owe me for life!!

Jj: what if ward put gavin in the sewer?

P: he can't

They keep talking but I hear a noise.

K: guys

Jj: it makes sense

K: do you hear that?

P: what?

We all listen closely.

Ki: guys the water!!

Her voice echoed, and it hit me.

K: Kiara get out of there!

Jj: kie!

P: kie!

All of a sudden, water comes rushing out pushing us down the lane.

Pope holds on to the rail but I let go, Jj grabs my arm and holds on right.

Jj: maybe there's a man hole! Go go go

Pope hurry's off to find one.

Jj: come on we gotta find one

K: let's go

We run as fast as we could.

K: kie!

Jj: were comimg!

P: Kiara!

We run to a near man hole and see Kiara screaming as the water rises.

Ki: pull it!

We grip onto the hole and pull are hardest.
Marks form on our hands from the friction but we didn't care.

K: wait wait

I pull out my car keys and start trying to lift the drain but my key falls in.

K: fuck!

We continue pulling until the water covers Kiara.

We finally lift up the drain and fall backwards as Kiara jumps out.

She starts coughing like crazy and pope grabs her int is hug comforting her.

While I lay on the ground, soaking wet, still in shock, I feel something on my hand. I look and see JJ holding it.
I look up at him then back at our hands, why do u feel like this?
I move my hand away from his and he looks away licking his teeth.

I breath heavily and hold my head.

Ki: Pope get off me

Jj: kie you good?

She continues coughing.

Ki: never better

She says sarcastically.

We all catch our breaths.

Ki: this wasn't what we were looking for right?

She pulls out the gun.

K: oh my god

Jj laughs.

J: holy shit, we're gonna get this son of a bitch man!

The boys celebrate but I grab Kiara into a hug.

Ki: erm you good?

K: thank god your okay.
