We all walk in past a line of long worried looking faces.
John B skips through all of them and makes his way all the way to the top and tries to grab the cops attention.
I look behind me to see a cop staring at me, I put my hand up in the air and laugh. Cops hated me as I came very well known down in the station. Anytime they see me they watch me like a hawk and the funny think is they only know about the stuff I got caught doing.
My thoughts are interrupted by the boys all trying to talk to the cop at once.
The cop yells "HEY, CALM DOWN" and signals us to go to the back of the line. I see a man who was clearly a kook waiting in line with his wallet left completely unattended in his pocket. John B can see what im thinking and grabs my arm leading me out.
Just as we get outside the tent a cop calls me back. "Williams" he says with a stern voice.
"The one and only" I say with a smirk. He stays silent so I go to talk again "Problem?".
"Watch your tone" he starts, "Is there a problem Williams?" he questions.
"Why would there be a probelm officer" I state innocently.
"Watch out Williams" he says ending the conversation.
I look back and smile. I was used to being questioned all the time, I found it funny. Kie looks at me disappointed.
"What" i exclaim, "I haven't even done anything yet" I say with a smile. I can feel JJ's eyes on me so I look over he's smiling. God I love his smile. What.
I did not.
No.
I refuse.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We arrive at the motel that was on the key. "I thought the château looked bad" JJ remarked after whistling.
"This is place is a shitshow" John B continued.
"Motel or Meth Lab" I asked earning a chuckle from JJ."Doesn't look like the place someone with a Grady White would stay" John B said from analysing the motel.
"It looks like somewhere where the owner of a Grady White would get killed" I say.
"This is your captain speaking, HMS Pogue coming in for landing" JJ said in a ridiculous accent.
He jumps out of the boat and ties it off. JJ let's our his arm which I happily take. He helps me up and just before I turn to walk towards the motel Pope says "Don't let them do anything stupid" to John B.
"Wow Pope do you really think that little of me" I say with a fake smile face. I stumble back holding my heart as if it's hurt.
"I'm not making any promises" John B says back to him.
Before John B gets off the boat kie turns to him and says with a tone of caution in her voice "Be careful" she pauses then speaks again, "I mean it".
Me and JJ shoot eachother a look almost simultaneously.
Me and JJ turn to walk into the motel with John B following after us.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As we're waking to the room I walk behind the boys in my own world while they walk side by side. I was snapped out of my own world when I hear JJ while feeling all around John B saying "Oh just be so careful John B, what the hell was that all about".
"I don't know, maybe she wants us to be careful" John B responds while shrugging.
"Since she heard you've been threatened with exile, she's just been, like, Oh be so careful John B just give me that John D already" JJ continues on.
"When are you gonna swoop on that, man?" JJ asks annoyed.
John B replies straight away "Bro,you know the rule no pogue on pogue macking"
For the first time since they left the boat there was a few seconds of silence before John B starts talking again, "Besides your the one always hitting on her"
Subconsciously after saying that his eyes drifted to me.
Without thinking JJ answers saying "Of course I'm hitting on her, she's a super hot, rich, hippie chick who is slumming with us"
And with that my heart went funny, I don't know why and I don't want to know why.
After JJ saying that he straight away looked back at me.
Annoyed, I shoved past the two taking the key out of John B's pocket without him knowing and went to open the door.
Just before I got there JJ held me back and said "It might not be safe we don't know if there's anyone in there"
"Like you care" I shoot back.
Confused JJ kept quiet and I opened the door.
Not a person in sight.
We begin searching through whoever owned this room stuff.
"Look for a name" John B says
"Always there to state the obvious" I smile while looking through the stuff.
"Don't worry El, I'll always be here to state the obvious" he says back with a big smile.
I made my way to the bathroom and began looking through all the cabinets.
JJ follows after me, he whispers in my ear, "Why are you mad princess?".
Not even bothering to face him I say, "Who says I'm mad?"
He takes that as an answer and walks away.
I immediately punch the wall both of the boys look my way but I act like nothing happened.
I look down at my knuckles, covered in blood. I always do this, it's like a coping mechanism.
John B calls me and JJ over. JJ bends down next to me, he's so close I can feel my breath on my neck.
We all look into the now open safe, the contents, a gun and a shit ton of cash.
JJ goes straight for the gun while I pocket some of the cash.
JJ goes posing around the room, then asks John B, "Take a photo of me exactly like this".
"And what? Make our own incremated evidence?" John B says disappointed.
I suddenly hear a faint tap at the window, I got to the window and see Kie and Pope jumping and pointing at the door. I run up to the side window and see cops
"Shit, Cops" I say scared.
We run around looking where to go, then I got for the window.
I help John B out then JJ. John B on one side then me and JJ on the other.
JJ is pressed right up against so he can't be seen.I look up and see is ocean blue eyes towering over me. He smirks until it's wiped straight off his face after somthing falling out of his pocket and bashing off the roof causing the cops to go to the window.
Thankfully the cops close the blinds again, I let out a breathe I didn't know I was holding and got helped down by JJ down.
Once we all climbed back on the boat Pope immediately asks us "So did you find anything?".
"Did we find anything you say" Me and JJ simultaneously pull out the gun and the money.
"YOU GUYS TOOK THAT FROM A CRIME SCENE" He yells.
"Better than the cops having it" I mutter loud enough for everyone to hear.
"I'm going to loose my scholarship" Pope worries.
JJ walks up to him and puts his arm around him and says "Atleast you have us right"
We all let out a laugh.
