JJ and a Routledge

Injuries

My sleeping plan failed, I was up the whole night. The next morning, the boys came to get us. I was in my bikini because it was starting to get hot, so my jellyfish sting was very visible. 

"Uh-oh!" John B calls out. "You forgot your keys or something? Need a tow?" He laughs at us and I scodff. 

"Let's not give them the satisfaction of thinking this worked." Kiara tells us, "Actually, Coral, make them think you're like gonna die, that would be perfect." 

"I can do that." I nod, I don't smile, just in case the boys see it.  I squint my eyes at them, to play the part. This is gonna be good. 

"You gotta admit, it was kinda funny." John B smirks as they near the boat. I cross my arms, and lean on one foot, yeah, we're not impressed. 

"John B." Kiara states.

"Uh, what's that?" He raises an eyebrow at her, smirk still plastered on his face. He thought he ate that, I swear to God. 

"Mastermind, huh?" 

"I'm always plannin'." He pats JJ on the back who seemed to be focused on something else. My stomach. 

Suddenly, JJ pipes in, "Coral, what the fuck is on your stomach." I feel all of the boys eyes on me. It's time to put on a show.  

I groan out in pain, making him jump on the boat and rush to my side. "Jellyfish sting, because you guys left us here. Happened when I jumped in after you." He places his fingers on my waist and leans down to get to it's level. 

"Shit, that was not in the plan," I hear him mutter as he examines it. His fingers on my stomach made me tingle. 

That's when I remember what the fuck he was doing, "Get your hands off of me." I shove him away as I jump onto the HMS Pogue. John B reaches his hand out for me, which I gladly take. 

"You good?" He whispers in my ear, and I just glare at JJ. I nod my head before looking over at him. 

"Never fucking better." 

That night we head back to the Crain House. I got my sting bandaged up, so I slept the whole ride there, and before we left. 

"We're ready." I hear John B confirm, which wakes me up. I groan and slowly open my eyes. "Ah, it's a zombie." John B pats me on the back as I rub my eyes. I quickly give him the finger as I get out of the van. "Wait, wait, wait." We all pause. "I want to say thank you, guys, seriously. It means a lot to me that you're here tonight." 

I rub my eyes once more. "Always." I give him a small smile and run my hands through my hair. I just want to get this shit over with. 

"Of course man." Pope smiles, patting him on the back. 

"All right, are we done with the circle jerk? Can we go do this?" JJ complains. I roll my eyes, as I actually get out of The Twinkie this time. 

"Let's go get that wheat in the water." Pope smiles. 

"Weed? I'm up for weed." JJ laughs. 

"Wheat, I said wheat." 

We quickly climb over the fence, Sarah first, me next, and so on, and so forth. We stand in front of the house when suddenly the outside light goes on. Motion sensors, perfecto. We quickly hide behind a bush. "Flashlights, flashlights," I whisper, and everyone turns them off. 

"Okay, so." Pope begins. "She has motion sensor lights." 

"We could, uh, move really slowly? Maybe." JJ gasps. 

"What?" Sarah shakes her head. 

"Yeah, that's not how it works." Pope pats JJ. 

"Oh, shit!" John B gasps."Let's throw a rock at it."
