I stood on the edge of the water with the golden sand between my toes. I pulled away slowly by putting a hand on his cheek, ours eye met as he laid his hand on mine. "You are so beautiful." He whispers.

I grin ear to ear and bring my finger up to softly run my thumb over his perfect dimple.When he looked at me I felt it mean something, I had never felt this way about anyone.

I noticed his eyes wander behind me so instinctively I turn, Topper and Rafe standing cross armed on the porch they didn't seem to see anything but they we definitely not happy to see JJ.

"I think we should go." He suggests, I nod my hand and the kook boys start to sprint toward us. "JJ!" Rafe spits angrily.

The blonde grabs my hand. "Come on!"

I grunt "I can't run in this dress!" gripping it in my hands. JJ turned to me he bends down to his knees and all the sudden I'm in the air. A giggle leaves my throat. "Don't drop me!" I warn, it was a close call but he got us back to the midsummer.

"There they are!" Topper shouted pointing in our direction. JJ put me down gently and I slipped my heals back on."come on, over here!" He said urgently. We ran through the open doors inside the fancy party, I dodged waiters and women in fancy dresses making sure not to accidentally push into any of there big fluffy gowns, lord knows I'm not gonna pay for the damages.

I flew past a group of old ladies, "Hey!" One of them screamed.

"Sorry!" I hollered behind me. I could hear Rafe sneakers squeaking against the rubber floor as he ran after us. "This way," JJ snatched my hand pulling me into the men's bathroom.

"I'm not supposed to be in here!" I quipped, his answer was too put his hands over my eyes. "Easy fix!" He counters. I trail behind him into the locker room only to be backed up into Rafe and his Goonies.

JJ stood in front of me "Stay behind me."

"What ya doing in the locker room?" rafe taunts, backing up into JJ while Kelce and another kook cornered us.

"That's a cute outfit," JJs sassed.

"Shut up!" Rafe spits snatching JJ up by his suit and throwing him to Kielce. The older boy took JJ roughly by his neck putting him in a tight chokehold, "stop!" I yelled another kook I didn't recognize, pinned my arms behind my back.

"Hold him still!" Rafe ordered his minions. "What do you think, a four iron, right?"

My heels clicked against the floor as I stumbled, from trying to force his hands from mine, a hiss left my mouth when the kook pressed his nails into my skin to stop me from moving. "Ow!"

JJs eyes went cold, and the humor drained away from his face. Eh! Man! Let go of her!" JJ broke free punching the kook in his face. Rafe snatched me by my forarm roughly, "ey! Come any closer and I'll hurt her."

"Rafe just let us go!" JJ grunted as Kielce pinned his arms back again.

I felt Rafe free hand traveling up my thigh, it wasn't like the feeling I got with JJ, no I felt unsafe. Scared. Violated.

He leaned into my ear. "Don't worry baby, I won't touch you. Only if you want me too." He whispers, I pull away from him. "I would never." I spat, I could tell that hurt Rafe but I didn't care. He rolls his eyes and throws me into the other kook.

"Rafe, please.— don't hit him!" I begged. I watched as Rafe slowly stopped, He looked at me up and down and then darted his eyes to JJ.

Rafe's intense look on his face fell to an empty smirk. "I see you she finally let you hit, ain't that right JJ." I rolled my eyes and He laughed, JJ grabbed onto kelces arms trying to break free. "Got to hell." he hurls a ball of spit at him.

"Oh shit" Rafe mutter wiping the spit off his cheek. "Alright then. " the lights suddenly flicker and the boy was interrupted by a security guard in the doorway. "Gentlemen!"

Kelce practically threw JJ to his knees and I was let go, I stumble to the side and JJ looks to me, "are you alright peaches." I nod and he wraps his arm around my waist.

"Is there a problem?" The tall man asks. "Pardon me, officer. No there no issue. I just— actually, yes. No, there is an issue." JJ stammers. "We got a criminal trespass in progress here. Beep! Call it in right." JJ taunted. "Blantant disrespect for private property."

"Yes" I added breathlessly. "I'm in violation of all kinds of shit sir, but the gentleman.." JJ spoke, fixing kelces tie.

"...uh caught me, Sir. And there about to take me away."

"Yup. That's what happened." I said eyeing Rafe."And that's what you should do escort him out of here." I add.

JJ stuck out his hands. "You got me." He chuckled, The guard looked at the four boys suspiciously, before looking back at me. "Is this true ma'am?"

"Yup, very true."

The guard began to drag JJ away by his arm and he wrapped his arm around my waist dragging me beside him. "You power puff girls have fun." Jj called behind him earning a loud chuckle from me.

"I'll see ya later Rea!" Rafe whistled back smugly. "I'd definitely still do you." I knew rafe was just trying to get a reaction out of me so I stayed quit JJ on the other hand did not. He leaped forward and punched rafe one good time. "JJ!" I grunted pulling him back.

"Watch your mouth Kook!" He shouted. The guards dragged us out of the men's bathroom, "ey, alright my dress. This shit was expensive" I grumbled when the man was having no concern for it. When he didn't change the way he was handling me JJ did, "ey you listening to her man, watch her dress." He snapped leaning down and picking up my train. Even in a moment like this I could smiled. JJ and I were thrown out the room and put outside. "Hey, Mr.dunvilllie, I see you got your drink." JJ talked to an older man in a suit.

"I'm just gonna down that." He says titling the cup to his lips, and gulped down the whole drink. I chuckled, making eye contact with Kiara from the other side of the lawn. "Hey, mandatory power hour at Rixons, Kie!" I said, running down to we're JJ was, i pushed the security guard off JJ shocking the whole crowd.

"Thanks my lady."

JJ dusted off his suit, "No problem"

"Pope you as well!" Jj called, "vixon code!" JJ reminded them all. I made eye contact with Kiara and her parents I knew how important this was for her mom, but I also knew how important coming with us meant for Kiara, no matter how much her parents wanted to ignore it Kie was a pogue at heart, always was and always would be.

I stuck out my hand, "coming?" She looked to her parents sending them a apologetic smile. "I'm sorry." she frowned cupping my hand. i intertwined our fingers letting the adrenaline rush through my veins as i ran through the tables and onto fake grass and into JJs arms. He swung me around as we waited for Pope to arrive.

"What type of shit you got us into?" JB quizzed raising his eyebrow.

I laugh softly, "You know me brother." I tilt my head."Later losers!"
