Hey <3 i tried something different in this episode but i actually really liked writing povs. if you like it too let me know and maybe i'll do it again in different episodes :)))) enjoy!!

-------------------------------------

They had a long trip to Charleston, and after Captain and Logan helped them even more by filling up their fuel, they made it to obx a little tired, but with smiles on their faces. 

They anchored near the Château, of course, and they got off the boat dreaming about having a couple beers, blasting music and chilling on the hammocks. 

But the universe had sworn not to give the pogues a break, and here she was, Carla Limbrey sitting on the porch, waiting for John B. 

John B and Pope walked towards her with big steps, while others stood in the back trying to understand what was going on.

"What the hell are you doing here!" Pope yelled.

"Oh, gentlemen. I've been waiting for you quite a long time."

"Are you joking me?" Pope said while breathing out of his nose. Oh how he wished she wasn't an older lady with a disability. How he wished he could just beat the shit out of her.

"What are you doing in my house?" John B asked with a calmer voice than Pope. 

"I'm here to talk business with you, Mr. Routledge. But we need to be alone."

"Whatever you've got to say to me, you can say with Pope here." 

"Mr. Heyward." she turned to Pope with a vauge smile on her face. "I am really upset about everything that happened on our journey of reaching the cross. But I'm sincerely willing to help you get it this time, financially and strategically."

"Why on earth would I believe you?" Pope asked.

"I'm afraid you'll be have to let me have a word alone with Mr. Routledge. And after that, you can gather your little group and hopefully come to the right decision." Limbrey looked past them, to the others who were still waiting at the dock. 

John B turned to Pope. "I'll talk to her, then let you know everything, okay? Just go see your parents and we'll meet afterwards. Just give me two hours."

Pope hesitated for a moment, but he trusted John B about telling him everything, so he agreed. He walked towards the others and talked, looking at their curious faces.

"We're splitting up for a couple of hours, okay?" he said. "Go take a shower, feel the asphalt, have a coke, whatever. We'll meet back in two hours."

They quietly walked out of John B's garden.

"I'm actually gonna go home, just to see how's it been." Sarah said. 

"You want me to come with, girl?" Cleo asked. "You might need someone by your side." Sarah shook her head and slowly thanked her.

"I'll go see the folks... they must be worried sick." Pope said.

"I should go face them too..." Kie said. "What about you?" She turned to JJ.

"Probably gonna go check out the house, take a shower, play some Vice City..." He stopped and checked his bike that he left at John B's place before. "You need a ride?" he asked to Kiara.

"Sure." Kiara said. "Thanks."

Then everyone went their separate ways.

JOHN B'S POV

Carla Limbrey was sitting right in front of me, looking up and down on me and obviously waiting for something but I wasn't going to be the first one to talk.
