Jasmine POV:

"This is empty. You took empty tanks?" Kie questioned.

Once everybody got into the HMS POGUE, as I was informed their boat was called, we headed out to the marsh. They were talking about some boat & I annoyed Jj until he finally told me what they were going do. Supposedly they found a sunken boat in the middle of the marsh. They found a key in it the boat that led them to a hotel room which they later found out apparently belonged to some guy named Scooter Grubs. This seemed like a movie. But one of those movies you know aren't going to end well but you just can't stop watching. That's mainly what my life has been though. Everything ends horribly no matter what. & things were going too good for there to not be something happening soon.

John B was sitting down by Kie on the bow, Jj leaning against the pole by the steering, & Pope sitting in the captains seat. I was sitting on the edge of the boat with one of my legs in the water, the other in the boat. Kie was complaining about how John B made the idiotic move of bringing only empty tanks. Typical guy.

"Okay, this ones a quarter full." Kiara said checking the last tank. "It's enough for one of us."

"Love it when a plan comes together." Pope said. Sarcasticness so obviously laced in his voice.

"Does anybody know how to dive?" Kie asked looking around the group.

I knew how to dive, but I wasn't going to tell them that. I didn't want them getting hurt so I figured maybe if I just stayed quiet & nobody else knew how to dive then they would just forget about it, choosing to go back to the Chateau.

"Anybody?" Kie asked again. She was beautiful. Her brown hair was flung over her shoulder but it still glowed in the sunlight.

"It's kind of a kook sport." Jj said. I looked up at him squinting to try & keep the sun out of my eyes. Jj clearly doesn't like kooks & I don't know if I should take that as an insult.

"I.. read about it." Pope finally voiced. This just brought my suspicions of him being the smart & merry one of the group to conformation.

"Great. Pope read about it so somebody's gonna die."

I continued to stay quiet hoping my plan would work. I didn't want to lose one of them when I just met them & I also didn't want them or me to get in trouble. I was only on the island for 3 days. I didn't need the cops knowing who I was already.

"Look, y-you put the thing in your mouth & breath how hard could it be?" Jj asked motioning with his hands while completely underrating how hard diving actually is.

"Well if you come up too fast nitrogen gets into your blood & you get the bends." I said turning around & putting both feet on the boat.

"Bends like bend over & you just like?" Jj asked grabbing onto the metal pole by the steering wheel & bending his back while sticking his ass out.

"The bends kill you." Pope said tired of Jj being a smart alloc.

"Yeah & also Jj, you have no ass." I said smiling at him while shading my eyes with my hand.

"I have more ass then you." Jj said walking across the boat to me & sticking his ass in my face.

"EW GROSS JJ!" I screamed shoving him away from me causing him to fall. Unfortunately he caught himself on the captains area.

"I can- I can dive"

My head snapped over towards John B. Is he serious? Diving alone for the first time is dangerous enough but doing it for the first time alone with a quarter of air was even worst. This boy is an idiot & I wasn't about to lose him over this. I wasn't losing him before I was able to admit my feelings.
