JJ walked to the house of John b. With each step, he was careful not to step on a leaf or shit like that, so as not to wake his sister, who was sleeping peacefully in his arms.

A burning smell made JJ wince as he entered the kitchen. John B was in the middle of the room and in the stove there was a huge fire and a dozen burnt pancakes in the trash can.

"John B, what the hell?" said JJ, drawing the brown-haired man's attention to himself.

"I made pancakes. I know Summer likes them, when Kie makes them." he replied.

JJ set his sister down on the couch.

"Man, I've never smelled anything that smelled so bad." he laughed.

John B punched his shoulder

"Throw that out before the rats come and stink up the place. But even they don't want to eat that..."

He turned around but saw that Summer was no longer on the couch. He raised an eyebrow.

"Summer?" he called to her.

There was no answer. John B looked at him, not understanding what was going on. JJ looked around her room and saw her building a castle out of blankets. He closed his eyes, glad she hadn't run away.

"Hi, little smurf. What are you doing ?"

She smiled at the name, then showed him the sign she had drawn with her crayons.

The Chateau.

JJ smiled and walked over to her before sitting down.

"Want to show me the inside?" he offered.

She clapped her hands, excited. Luckily, she had made her cabin a little bigger and JJ could get inside, but he was not comfortable.

He was careful not to break anything and then lay down.

"Lovely home." he remarked.

"Yes! JJ, tell me a story... please" she said with catlike eyes.

"Okay... okay. What do you want me to tell you?"

She seemed to be thinking, searching for the name of the story Kiara had told her, well, had started to tell.

"The one with the prince and the princess." she said.

"They all have prince charming and princesses, Summer. But uh- tell me. If you find your prince charming, you tell me, uh?" he began.

"Yes, I hope he's handsome, kind, funny, good at surfing and tall!" she told him with her little voice.

"And I hope he's not afraid of big brothers because-" he paused.

He didn't want to tell her that in the future he would probably threaten her boyfriend. She didn't have to know that.

"But you're not scary!" she laughed.

He finally told her his story, but soon noticed that she had fallen asleep against his pillow. He kissed her cheek and then left the little cabin. He took a deep breath of air.

"Kinda cute. Loved the story." mocked Kie, behind him.

He turned and saw Kie, Pope and John B sitting behind the cabin. They had probably been listening to them for a while.

"Fuck you." he laughed.
