The next morning the five friends set off on The Pogue, John B driving, Pope standing next to him, the girls sitting on the edge of the side of the boat and JJ sitting at the front. The boys had all shed their tops, being left in their swimming trunks, Kiara in a black bikini and Bella in a white one. They weren't off to do much at that current moment, just appreciating the weather.

JJ whistled looking over at a boat coming towards them "You guys see that? That's the Malibu 24-MXZ, the world's finest wakesetter. Number one in luxury, quality and performance. 200K, easy"

Pope spoke also looking at the boat "We picked the wrong parents"

"Tell me about it" Bella huffed.

Kie then spoke up saying "I hate to break it to you guys, but that's Topper and his girlfriend" Kiara turned her head and Bella shook hers.

Bella had nothing against Sarah Cameron, apart from the fact that she's her best friend's number one enemy, which wasn't a big deal to her but if she tried to start shit, the brunette would get involved, no doubt about it. Her boyfriend is also the biggest dickhead on the whole island and she got her brother fired from his job. So uh... maybe she does have a lot against Sarah Cameron.

There was an awkward few seconds when they passed each other, making Bella pinch the bridge of her nose, trying to not cringe. Kiara then spoke up "You don't have to act like you don't see us bitch" as they just carried on down their separate ways.

When they got back to the chateau, they got straight into the van and they made their way over to a hotel in figure eight, John B driving, JJ in the passenger seat and the other three in the back.

As they pulled up to their destination, JJ took his gun out from the glove box "Alright, keep a look out. We're behind enemy lines"

"Yo, come on man. Put it back" John B ordered the blonde.

"You can never be too careful" JJ replied.

Pope then got out of the van and went over to JJ's window "Hey, I predict that bringing a weapon into a four-star hotel will likely cause more problems than they solve"

Kie then climbed over and looked between John B and JJ's seats "I swear to god, i'm gonna throw that thing in the ocean JJ. Put it back"

John B took the gun by the barrel and shoved it back in the glove box "You can't grab a gun like that" JJ whined.

As John B got out of the van, JJ reached back into the glove box and picked up the gun again. Bella got out of the van and shut the door, walking over to where Pope previously was "Put it back J" he only took a glance at the girls face before putting back in the glove box.

Pope then looked at JJ with furrowed eyebrows "Okay, we start with Bells next time"

JJ internally rolled his eyes at how easy it was for the girl to have him wrapped around her finger and she didn't even know it. Before he opened his door he looked at the glove box remembering something "Can't forget my badge" getting out of the van and holding it up "Professional busboy"

They all started walking towards the hotel entrance and Pope asked "So, where are we going now?"

To which JJ replied "We're getting on the internet because only rich people have electricity right now"

"Why can't we just go to Kie's?" Bella suggested.

Kiara slightly cringed "No offence, but my parents kinda hate you guys"

"Fair enough" Bella shrugged her shoulders, so used to being hated by kooks, it was just the usual for the others.

They walked through a busy kitchen , all in single file, JJ in the front, Bella slightly behind him and the other three behind her. JJ walked past an older woman wearing a chefs hat, standing in front of a large tray of food "Mama L, good to see you!" he said to her, reaching his hand to take some food.

The woman quickly smacked his hand with a wooden spoon "Hey, no! JJ!" she scolded the boy as Bella laughed at the interaction.

As they walked a little further into the hotel, JJ started speaking again "See, they got the backup generators going? Kooks don't miss a beat"

Finally reaching a room filled with computers, Pope sprinting to one as soon as he saw them "Sweet lord, the internet! I've missed you"

JJ shut the door after they all walked in also making his way over to a computer "Let me get in there. Gotta check out my insta models"

John B scrambled through his bag "I got the map"

"Co-ordinates please?" Pope asked.

John B read them out and when the computer showed the location he said "Boom, continental shelf, right there"

"Okay, well if it's off the deep end, it's not gonna be much of a treasure hunt, is it?" Pope asked rhetorically.

John B pointed at the screen "Shit it's on the high side. It's only 900 feet"

"Only?" Bella asked her brother.

JJ turned to her "That's not too deep"

"Is that like doable or something?" Kiara asked.

"Yeah, totally doable" JJ replied.

Pope looked at both boys as if they were delusional "Okay, well will we be taking your personal submarine?" making Bella laugh out loud earning herself a death glare from JJ making her instantly shut up. The look gave her instant butterflies as she looked down to the floor to hide the blush that was creeping onto her cheeks.

"How do you know this, Mr Dive Master?" John B asked JJ.

He replied instantly "The salvage yard. They got a drone that can drop 1000. It has a 360 camera and everything. It's for like, deep dives and stuff. It's exactly what we need"

"And can your dad get his grimy little hands on that?" John B asked.

Bella tensed at the thought of JJ's dad, instantly moving even closer to him, interlocking their hands whilst his arm naturally travelled around her waist.

"Well, my dads grimy little hands got his ass fired. I guess the salvage captain frowns on showing up shitfaced turns out. But the drone's there. It's in the impound yard out back" JJ explained.

Kiara perked her head up "How much did you say was on the Royal Merchant again?"

"400 mil" John B, JJ and Bella all said in unison.

Pope ran up towards the door and stood in front of it "No. Absolutely not. Absolutely not. No"

They all made their ways to the door and Bella moved his arm out of her way, walking through the door as the others argued with him trying to get him to move. As Bella was already out of the door she yanked the back of his t-shirt, causing him to fall back into her "Can't we do anything legal for money"

"Popey, don't be silly. We're pogues, that should already say enough" Bella chuckled , pulling his arm with her, following the others who were now making their way out of the hotel.
