Jiara: My Mistakes Were Made For You

Part 20: Sin and Indulgence

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

I know I've been gone for so long because honestly my life turned upside down. I normally don't have time to write this right now either, but I didn't like the place that I had to leave this story. I think they all deserve better, and you guys deserve a proper ending from me. So I'll try to make time to at least finish this story.

I'm planning to write 3 or 4 episodes after this one, and then it'll be over. I'm working on the next episode right now, so I can publish it in 4-5 days. And after that, I'll probably be able to publish an episode per week. So let's go

!!!okayyyy so VERY explicit language and sex scene in this episode. I wanted to try something different and enjoyed writing it though it might be uncomfortable for some so please skip this part if that applies to you. i'll add a small note to the next part to fill you in about what went down. for others, enjoy some hot wet fun :)

They returned to the van and drove for a few more hours. Big John's car was left in Bridgetown, and he was going to have to get there somehow and get it back, but they didn't care at the moment. They took both the gold and the Cross. That was the only thing that mattered. They had achieved what they had dreamed of for so long, for which they had gotten into so much trouble. Everyone told them that they were childish, that they dreamed a lot, but they had finally succeeded. Even if they faltered and got into trouble over and over, they had succeeded. Now, the only thing that didn't go right was the confusion that swirled between Kie, JJ, and Pope. And perhaps this, this relationship between people who had been with each other since childhood, was more important than anything else.

When they got back home, Big John was gone. They carried the shrouded cross inside and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now they got everything they wanted. They had enough money to find a boat, or even a private jet if they wanted, and take The Cross and their fortune home. It was almost night, but none of them felt tired. It was time for the celebration that they waited too long for, and they knew no money could buy the joy of a bottle of vodka stolen from a parent's cabinet. It would take them a long time before they got used to the life of millionaires, and it was fine, they had no rush.

They were all dancing, drinking, and passing JJ's rolled up joints. Maybe that was exactly what they needed. Pope wasn't even avoiding looking at JJ and Kie's face anymore, he was completely let go, just trying to enjoy what they had accomplished. Kie and JJ were trying to savor the last moment maybe they could be this close, dance with each other without feeling guilty. In Barbados, in a place they had never known, they were all just trying to savor the moment, intoxicated with a sense of victory they had never experienced before. None of them had any intention of thinking about the next day, with their drinks in hand, the music playing in the background, and their smiling faces, that moment was all they cared about.

They were all a little tired, and the others were already sitting in a corner while Cleo and Sarah were still standing and trying to dance in slow motions. They were just looking ahead, listening to the song playing in a half-asleep state. JJ was smoking his joint, all he wanted was to be high. He was just trying to be drunk or high enough to fall asleep without thinking about what was going on, but he just couldn't. Every time he met Kie or Pope's eyes, it instantly sobered him up. When John B slowly touched his shoulder, he jumped a little, turning to him.

"Geez, man! Don't sneak up on me like that!" he said.

"I see you're distracted..." John B answered with a little smirk on his face. JJ rolled his eyes.

"No shit..." he grunted.

"Come inside for a sec," John B said. "I need to talk to you." He just wanted to help, he knew JJ and Kie were in an impossible situation, but he was willing to do anything in his power to help them. It was crushing John B to see the two of his best friends suffering. He knew JJ needed a talk, and he knew he was the only one who could give it to him.
