██Gwendolyn sat with her feet in the salty water, at the bottom of the boat, with cold water that rushed up her leg. She was entranced in her book ( which she was near finishing ), and stuck in the magical fantasy world of Wizards and Dragons. JJ and John B stood at the top, murmuring about something Gwen couldn't care less about.
She was brought back to earth when JJ called for Pope, who was busying himself with another one of his dads chores. After the hurricane though, who could blame him, it had wiped out nearly everything, and the Château got to worst of it, too.
"Your dads a pussy over," JJ mimicked a static radio, grinning from ear to ear. Gwen only rolled her eyes, moving her glare to Pope. Heyward, Pope's dad, bustled over, he had anger written all over his face.
Pope tried to calm him down for a split second, yet it was already too late. "I heard that, you little bastard!" He raised his voice, waving his finger at JJ. Gwen hid her snicker, not very well, and Heyward averted his gaze to her. He glared, "And you."
Gwen began spitting apologies, profusely. The man waved it off, seeking attention back to his son, who was eyeing the boat suspiciously. "I'll do it tomorrow, I promise. Tomorrow." Pope pleaded, but his dad shot right back. "Hell no, you doin' it right now!"
"Get in the boat," She heard JJ whisper, "Make a run for it." Gwen just nodded, trying to look as innocent as possible, also trying not to get on Heywards bad side again.
The boy leapt into the boat, and Gwendolyn squealed as it rocked. "Go, go, go!" JJ yelled to John B, who made a getaway.
Heyward shouted after them as the boat sped away, and all Gwen could do was laugh, before trying diverting her attention back to her book. JJ flicked her forehead.
"JJ." Gwen warned sternly, not taking her eyes off of her page. He flicked her again, this time his hand wavered. "I will not hesitate to throw you off this boat!" She glared up at the boy, who only threw his hands up in surrender. She watched him turn around to go to John B and finally exhaled.
"Oh, top o' the morning to ya." Kiara crawled onto the boat and perched next to Gwen, carrying 'Juice Boxes'. Gwen quickly snatched one, popping open the top and sipping. Kiara raised a brow at her actions and chuckled.
