(TW: Fighting, Assault, Attempted Sexual Assault, Attempted Drowning, Nightmare, and Panic Attack.)
Between school, my parents, one supernatural creature after another, interning with Scott at the shelter, trying to have a somewhat normal social life, and trying to have couple time/ time for my relationship with my boyfriend Derek, I was completely, utterly, overwhelmed and tired, I felt like I couldn't even take a moment to breathe. It was then after we all shoved then collapsed into Derek's loft after defeating the most recent evil that I decided I desperately needed a break, not from the pack, not from my friends, especially not from my boyfriend, but it would be difficult to explain. So once I went home and subtly confirmed with my parents that we do in fact still have a little vacation home inherited from my grandmother, nestled on a little island on the east coast, also known as Outer Banks. After also listening to my mom thinking out loud about how no one had been to the little house in over three years, and that she probably needs to hire someone out there to take a look and see what condition it's in and fix things up, an escape plan practically fell into my lap. I Told mom I'd do it. I hadn't been to Outer Banks in years, that I missed the friends I had made there that I still keep in touch with, the pogues if you will. I pointed out that school would be out for the summer at the end of the week so by definition school's already over, and she wouldn't even have to pay for labor costs, and she would have someone she actually knew and could therefore 100% trust instead of hiring some random person. Suprisingly and thankfully she agreed, we even found a plane ticket for the very same day. After thanking her, I sprinted up to my room to pack. I reached for my phone to call Kie to let her know then decided upon suprising them instead. I packed two duffels, then sat at my desk to write two notes, one for Derek and one for the pack explaining everything. I explained to my mom that nothing was wrong between Derek and I or our friends but I just needed a complete seperation from Beacon Hills for the summer and to not tell Lydia, Ally, Derek, or Scott, or Stiles or anyone else where I was. After figuring out how she wanted me to keep track of what needed to be fixed and everything, I got a cab to the airport not wanting burden her with driving to the airport, plus I could have the cab driver stop momentarily, at Derek's loft so I could leave the notes taped to his door. Finally I made it to the airport, through security, and onto the plane. It wasn't until we were about halfway there that I finally started to relax again and felt like I could finally take a deep breath. Once I officially arrived in Outer Banks it was 3 am. Because it was only a 45 minute drive to the little house and we had pre rented the car before I left all I had to do was pick it up and go. On the way to the little house I stopped at a 24 hour market and grabbed a few preliminary groceries. It was still absurdly early when I finally unlocked the front door and stepped inside what would be my home for this summer. I was too wired from the time difference and the traveling and the prospect of seeing great friends to even think about sleep, so I decided to whip up a batch of cookies, because I had grabbed the ingredients from the store while I was doing my first general grocery run. I figured I could bring some to the pogues. As I baked I wondered how JB and them have grown, If I'd still have a crush on JB like I did the last summer I was here. I hoped they'd be just as excited and happy to see me as I was to see them. I also took the time to pre-plan how I was going to explain why my phone would be going off a lot and that I probably would have to take the calls, but that I don't want anyone from my hometown to know where I was so if they could try to not give it away in the background or anything which was going to be an interesting task given the wolves super hearing and all. I hummed to myself as I neatly stacked and wrapped the cookies. I then made myself a cup of coffee and sat out on the porch to watch the sunrise. After drinking my coffee and watching the world wake up, I decided it was finally a decent hour to go see my friends. I grabbed the plate of cookies and locked the door behind me. Knowing that John B's Chateau was only two blocks over I decided to walk. I breathed deeply and relished the North Carolina humidity hugging my skin. I perked up smiling to myself as the chateau came into view, it turning into a full grin when I registered the Twinkie in the driveway knowing that meant someone was here. I started up the driveway with the intention of knocking on the front door, when I heard voices coming from the backyard. "I don't know man, I just hope it's a smokin babe staying there this summer." I heard JJ's voice. Making me chuckle to myself. "Who says it has to be a girl, it's someone fixing up the place, statisically yet unfairly it's more likely a handy man." I heard Kie retort. I paused at the corner of the house for only a moment to peer at my friends to see who all was there before I made my presence known. "Wouldn't it be awesome if it was y/n?" JB said. A chorus of agreement arose before Pope interjected. "Probably isn't though it's been FOREVER since she was here... though I did over hear Pops talking to Mrs. Y/L/N about her." This time I laughed loudly walking over to them. "Did someone say my name?" I asked teasingly propping one hand on my hip the other holding up the cookies, playfully shaking my head at them. "Cause if y'all are talking shit I'll leave and take the cookies I made for you guys with me... Did ya miss me?" I smiled. "Y/N/N!!!" JJ was the first to launch himself at me pulling me into a bear hug. "OMG it's you!!" Kie squealed attaching herself to me next. "Yes Tis I, and I come bearing cookies." I held out the plate of cookies, for it to be eagerly snatched up by JJ. "Hell YES!" He cheered. "Hey Y/N! Glad to see the conversation I overheard my dad having on the phone was true." Pope laughed pulling me in for a hug. "Good to see you too. No Sarah today?" I asked looking around. "Nah Rose whisked her off to do who knows what." Kie shrugged. I noticed a new face in the crowd, I smiled and held my hand out. "Hi, I'm Y/n, nice to meet you." I introduced myself. "I'm Cleo, nice to meet you too, I've heard good things." She smiled shaking my hand. "That's good, nothing embarrassing I hope... hmm that still leaves one person I haven't said hello to yet.." I trailed off with a smirk stepping around Pope to be directly in front of John B but a few paces away he seemed to not quite believe I was here yet, just watching us in a trance like state, almost as if he thought he was dreaming. "Johnny Boy? anybody home in there?" I joked softly playfully pretending I was waving my hand in front of his face. In an instant as though once he could smell my perfume and I called him by the nickname reserved solely for me, it registered I was in fact here and he leapt up and sprinted over to me engulfing me in a warm hug lifting me up and twirling me around. "Holy shit, y-you're real, you're here, y-you're really here." He sputtered tucking some of my hair behind my ear and his eyes darting all around my face. I breathed for a moment shoving down the butterflies his touch sent roaring around my stomach... yep definitely still have that crush... I also have a boyfriend, I remind myself. "Yes indeed I'm here and y'all are stuck with me for the whole summer." I laughed causing everyone else to chuckle too. "Damn I missed you guys." I said my eyes slightly misting over. "Awe c'mere." John B cooed pulling me back into another hug the others joining creating a massive group hug. Once we broke apart we sat back down catching up, noticing John B had decided to sit beside me, slinging an arm around my shoulder and brought me into him practically on top of him. I brushed it off deciding he was this way with all his friends. "It's decided then!" JJ declared standing up, pulling Kie, Cleo, and I out of our little girl talk we'd been having. "What now?" Pope asked. "We shall throw a Kegger tonight at the boneyard in celebration of y/n and her momentous return." He grinned wildly. "Are you sure... you guys don't have to." I tried to protest. "Nonsense besides he'll just come up with another reason, he's been dying to have a kegger for a few weeks now." Kie and Cleo laughed. "Ok then, but you'll all be there?" I asked. Getting yeses and nods in return. "Okay then why not, sounds like fun." I grinned looking forward to getting a real chance to let loose and to not have to worry about anything for an evening. "Until then, Johnny boy, do you still have the HMS?" I asked squinting up at him. "Sure do, she's right down at the dock." He pointed proudly. "Can we take her out for a spin then?" I asked excitedly. "Absolutely! Let's Go." He replied and grabbed my hand dragging me down to the boat, the others following. "After you." John B said helping me into the boat. "Why thank you." I replied. Once everyone was in and settled and John B manuvered the boat away from the dock I decided it was time to explain the phone thing before I started getting calls. "So uh there is something I need to tell you guys about." I gulped. "Sure what's up?" JJ replied. "You can tell us anything." Kie added. "We can help." Pope interjected. "I'm good at keeping secrets." Cleo assured. "Anything at all." Jb Smiled reassuringly. "Well my boyfriend and I are taking a break this summer... more so me taking a break from all things Beacon Hills, but um when my mom brought up the house and it needing to be fixed up and I offered it was a last minute thing. I literally left the same night. So I didn't get to actually tell him I was leaving for the summer I just left a note taped to his door." I paused. They watched me intently patiently waiting for the next part of my story, not trying to rush me just letting me know they were listening. "So he'll probably call, a lot, and I'll probably cave and or out of habit answer the calls, and like nothing's wrong between us nothing happened, I just got overwhelmed with a lot of stuff and need some space. I don't want him or my other friends back home to find out where I am.. if it's not to much to ask, can like whenever I get a call, y'all help me out if I need it. Like if we're out on the boat one of you cuts the motor. Nobody mention anything about our location, like not even whispering to each other... cause he's got like ridiculously good hearing. I know that sounds weird but like I also get the inkling you guys get it though." I huffed out. "Yea sure." JJ shrugged not even needing an explanation. "Whatever you need girl, you'd do the same for me." Kie replied nudging my shoulder. "I'm in." Pope nodded reaching over and doing the handshake with me. "Happy to help." Cleo nodded "That's not too much to ask, we've got your back." John B soothed running a comforting hand up and down my back. "Thanks guys you've no idea the relief you've just given me." I smiled letting out a huge breath of air flopping back and looking up at the sky. "We just need a signal, a hand signal for when you answer your phone and it's someone you're keeping your location from." Pope said. "Ooh great idea." John B agreed. "How about the sign language sign for home?"Kie suggested. "You mean this?" I asked pinching my fingers together lifting them to my cheek and moving my hand back and forth from my mouth to my ear. "Yeah that." She nodded. "Yeah that works, Thanks Kie!" I gave her a side hug. "So is Barry and his Douche posse still douches?" I asked. "Complete." Pope said. "Never stopped." JJ snickered. "Though somehow he is slightly more mysogynistic like that was even possible." Kie deadpanned. "Little spoiled boy, doesn't even know how to be a man." Cleo snorted "We can't gurantee that he won't hear about the kegger but we'll protect you don't worry." JB puffed his chest out. "Thank you." I cooed placing a friendly peck on his cheek, to which he blushed at. "Ugh do you think he'll still have the hots for you?" Kie asked shuttering. "I hope not... remember what happened last time I was here." I cringed. "Wait something happened?" JB asked concerned. "Where were we when this happened, surely we would have kicked his ass." JJ grunted. "Yeah even I'm lost." Pope scratched his head. "Well it wasn't like one big incident he just kinda followed me around, acting as though he was convienently wherever I happened to be." I explained moving my hand in a circle. "That sounds unpleasant." Cleo offered. "It felt unpleasant." I nodded in agreement. "Totally weird." Kie agreed. "Oh." JJ nodded. "Real weird." Pope crossed his arms. "Yeah we'll make sure that doesn't happen again." JB said patting my shoulder. "Anyways, it's roughly two hours to the kegger, John B would you please drop y/n, Cleo, and I at my place so we girls can get ready? I'll drive them to the boneyard in an hour to help set up." Kie requested. "Sure, can do!" John B replied chipperly, jovial music playing in the background. We hadn't being going but more than five minutes when my phone rang. I slid it out and saw it was Derek for like the eighth time, knowing it was time to answer, JJ was chattering away about the outer banks marsh and how it somehow corallated to the social structure of the island. "GuYS!" I shout doing the agreed upon hand signal. JB cut the motor, Kie cut the music, and nudged JJ to try to get him to stop talking for a minute but he was in the zone with whatever he was talking about, so Pope leapt up and clasped his hand over JJ's mouth. With Cleo standing by for back up. I quickly answered the phone. "H-Hello?" I asked. "Y/n, Baby, are you okay?" Derek asked the words tumbling out of his mouth. I lovingly chuckled at his care. "I'm fine, I promise, I was just overwhelmed with school, and my parents, and the um certain people of Beacon Hills, I cleared my throat on the word people so Derek would know I meant supernaturals. "Ah I see." Derek replied. I smiled to myself I could see him in my mind pacing the living room of his loft. "And how long do you think you'll be gone 2, 3 weeks?" He asked just curious and trying to get a timeline. "Uh um t-the whole summer actually." I winced waiting for his reply. I had purposely waited until I was in Outer Banks to tell him otherwise he might have been able to talk me into a shorter amount of time. "T-THE WHOLE summer." He spluttered and a small disgruntled whine left his throat. "I'll be back before you know it, sweet boy." I reassured him. "B-but that's such a long time, and you know I worry about you." He admitted. "I am fine. I will continue to be fine, and I'll keep you in the loop, I promise." I comforted. "But I'll miss you so much, I already miss you." He shakily admitted. "Oh Der." My voice caught in my throat knowing what a big admission that was for him. "I already miss you too, so so much, but trust me on this, I need this, almost as much as I need you, if didn't go on this trip I'm pretty sure I'd have lost my mind within the next two weeks." I chuckled smiling victoriously when he chuckled back. "Also remember this is all me, you didn't do anything, the others didn't do anything. I love you, and I'm coming back to you at the end of the summer. Give Lyds, Ally, Stiles, and Scott my love and tell them not to fret either, and that yours and my moms calls are the only ones I'll be answering. Okay?" I reminded. "Ok my love, just don't go falling for some other dude." Derek relented. "I don't know... they've got some pretty good looking dudes here." I tease winking at JB. "Oh really so do I need to worry about these 'good looking..." Derek tried to trick me into slipping up and telling him where I was. "Nice try lover boy." I smile. "Okay okay, is it at least nice weather wherever you are? Is that the ocean I hear?" He asked I could practically see the loving smile on his face. "No the marsh actual- damn you just got a clue out of me didn't you." I realized. "Well an extremely non descript one actually, Marshlands on the east coast doesn't narrow it down all that much." He huffed. I giggled to myself realizing he remembered the bare minimum of what I had told him about the little house that it was on the east coast. "Anyways I love you Der, but I gotta get off the phone now." I said realizing we were at Kie's now. "Okay, Love you and Miss you." Derek said blowing a kiss softly over the phone. "Love and miss you too sour wolf." I teased lightly to keep the mood happy. "Thanks guys, sorry about that." I smiled letting them know I was off the phone. "Okay EW did you really have to lick my hand JJ?!"Pope said disgusted wiping it off on JJ's shirt. "What it was a defense mechanism." JJ laughed. "Okay boys behave, I'll get little miss talk of the town, Miss Fabulous, and myself all dolled up and ready and meet you guys at the boneyard in an hour, to help set up. Also Sarah's meeting us here to get ready with us so we'll be bringing her to the kegger." Kie said as John B helped her then Cleo, then me off the boat and onto her dock. "We will see you then ladies." JJ finger gunned. "One hour don't be late." Pope teased. "Not that you ladies will have to do much you guys are already gorgeous as is." John B charmed. "Smooth." I smiled and waved as the HMS pogue disappeared from view. "OK let's do this!" Kie cheered excitedly grabbing my hand and Cleo's and leading us into her house and to her bedroom. I only had a moment to wave hello to her parents as we passed. "So I saw the flirting between you and JB... what's up with that?" Kie asked wiggling her eyebrows. "Yes I saw it too." Cleo corroborated "Umm harmless playful flirting? I have a boyfriend?" I scrambled. "MMm hmm a boyfriend you're taking a break from for the summer..." She trailed off beginning to look through her closet for outfits for us. "Kie, Darling... just what are you implying?" I asked. "M just sayin a summer fling might be just the thing to help you unwind." She smiled holding up a super cute dress. "She has a point!" Cleo grinned. "This! you should wear this, you'll look so hot." Kie smirked motioning to the full length mirror in the corner. "So first to address the JB thing, wouldn't that count as cheating on Derek?" I asked confused. "Oh you're right I didn't think about that, sorry got too excited. Still wear the dress, just look hot for the hell of it, for yourself, why not!" Kie smiled. "Okay sure! but I'm going to wear cloth shorts underneath just to be safe, will you be dressing equally as hot? And what about you Cleo?" I asked looking myself over in the mirror. "You know it girl!" She laughed. "I'm in." Cleo agreed. "You trying to impress Pope or JJ?" I asked them both intrigued. "Fine but only because if I keep this to myself any longer I may actually explode. JJ, I'm falling for JJ." Kie smiled. "AWW Kie you guys would be SO good together." I gushed. "I know right! How about this one for me?" She agreed and held up a different but insanely amazing dress. "Girl! he won't be able to take his eyes off of you. Yes 100% yes." I nodded. "Which means Cleo?...Do you have your eye on our sweet Pope?" I ask picking out a dress for her and holding it out to her gushing "This will be amazing on you!" She smiled and nodded "Yes Pope has caught my eye." Cleo smiled. "Oh be still my beating heart!" I giggled "Makeup time! I do yours and you do Cleo's and Cleo does mine?" Kie begged excitedly. "I'm game let's do it!" I smiled and nodded. "Let's go for it, that'll work nicely." Cleo agreed. "OHHH KIEE!!! CLEOOO!!! Your mom says we have a guest?!" Came Sarah's melodic voice from the hallway. "YES! WE'RE IN MY BATHROOM, DOING MAKEUP! YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHO IT IS!!" Kie shouted back with a chuckle. "Outer Banks' mystery summer guest?" Came Sarah's reply from right outside the door. "Well Duh, but that was a given, guess harder girlie." I laughed swinging the bathroom door open revealing my presence to Sarah. "Y/N/N?!?! Do my eyes decieve me?! Finally you're back!!" Sarah Cheered as we hugged. Cleo and Kie laughed and shook their heads lovingly at our reunion. "It feels good to be back, I so needed a break from Beacon Hills, you've no idea." I huffed with a smile. "I think I get what you're saying." Sarah nodded. "Now come here let me do the finishing touches to your makeup." Kie admonished lightly shoving me back in front of her vanity. "Et Volia, a masterpiece." Kie kissed her fingers and gave a dramatic flourish. My Jaw dropped after I finished Cleo and as I turned to the mirror and took us all in. "Damn, we look SMOKIN hot." I exclaimed. "Agreed." Sarah giggled fluffing her hair. "With out a doubt, we'll be the hottest girls at the party tonight!" Kie nodded. "Cheers to that." Cleo laughed. "AH about that y/n fair warning Rafe said Barry will be there, everybody has heard that our summer mystery guest is tonight's guest of honor so." Sarah informed me. "Okay, thanks for the heads up, but don't worry I've been taking some self defense classes." I covered my ass in case I ended up in a fight and looking like I can handle myself, thanks to the supernatural of Beacon Hills. "OOH you'll have to teach us some moves." Sarah said excitedly. "That would be so fun! PLEASE Y/n???" Kie begged. "Ohh sounds really fun." Cleo nodded. "Of course anything for my girls, but let's survive this party first... Shall we?" I offered my arms out pretending I was escorting them. "It would be my Honor M'lady." Sarah played along. "Charmed I'm sure." Kie played too. "Why thank you madam." Cleo teased. We waved goodnight to Kie's parents as we passed again and tumbled into Kie's car. We blasted our favorite songs shouting along to the radio, warming up for the party. Finally Kie pulled into the parking lot of the boneyard and parked. "Ready girls?" Kie asked. "No time like the present." Sarah replied. "Show time ladies!" Cleo added. "Let's go have some fun!" I cheered getting out of the car. We waited for Kie to lock her car and we all followed the path down to the boneyard. The boys were already there starting to set up. "Fear not, the calvary's arrived and we're here to help!" I chortled watching as John B's head shot up and a smile graced his lips as he watched me, I lightly jogged over to JB and gave him a hug, for some reason he helps calm my nerves, not to the extent Derek does, but I know I'm safe with him. "Alright now we can offically get this party started!!" JJ called wiggling his eyebrows. "Ladies!! Looking good!" Pope smiled and waved. Cleo walked over and started helping Pope, While Kie went to help JJ. I glanced back at John B to see he was still staring at me lost in thought. "Aye close your mouth, you'll catch flies." I joked nudging him playfully. "S-Sorry, you look good- Grea- beautiful, you look beautiful y/n." John B stuttered out. That's new I noted to myself having never had that affect on him before or at least I hadn't noticed. "Well thanks Johnny Boy you don't clean up to bad yourself." I giggled. "Why you little!" He teased trying to tickle me. "AHH NO Don't iM SORry!" I shrieked running away from him. Once we finally stopped messing around, I planted my hands on my hips. "So what can I do to help?" I asked. "Could you please get the cups from the Twinkie?" Pope asked. "Sure can! Way to give me the heaviest items Pope." I joked. "Y/n Heads up!" JJ shouted flinging the keys at me. Surely they were expecting the uncoordinated, clumsy girl I used to be... though I'm still pretty clumsy at times, pretty sure it's a genetics thing. So they were all pretty shocked when my hand shot out and I caught them perfectly with out even looking still conversing with Pope. "How many bags of cups we talkin' Pope?" I asked. "THAT... WAS... AWESOME!" John B whooped. "Where'd you learn that?" JJ asked incredulously. "Girl Power!!" Kie laughed. "That's just how we do it!" Sarah joked. "Badass y/n!" Cleo complemented. "Some of my friends back home play lacrosse and they've gotten me to practice with them, so I guess I've finally learned some hand eye coordination." I smiled and shrugged. "Still cool." JJ nodded. "Uh there's 4 bags y/n." Pope informed. "Thanks... be right back with the cups." I said seeing some people begining to arrive. I jogged back up the path and to the Twinkie unlocking and grabbing the bags of cups and shutting and relocking the Twinkie behind me. "Well, Well, Well, look who it is!" I heard a semi familiar voice, I was just hoping he was without Barry. I turned around to face him. "Topper! How are you? It's been a while." I let out a subtle breath of relief seeing he was alone. Topper I could handle, I was okay with him, he was actually an alright guy, he just lowers himself to Barry's level and I wish he wouldn't. "I'm doing okay, hanging in there, I'm happy to see you though." He chuckles nodding opening his arms for a hug. I shrug and think what the hell and give him a hug. "Good to see you too." I smiled and nodded. "So you're our mystery summer guest then I take it?" He asks. "Tis I." I nodded. "Nice." He smiled back. "I've gotta get these down to the beach, you coming?" I asked over my shoulder begining to walk away. "I'm coming, I'm coming." He replied falling into step beside me. "So where's thing 1 and thing 2?" I ask jokingly refering to Kelce and Rafe. "They're on their way, they'll be here any minute." Top snorted. "Great." I said. "Well have fun, I'm sure I'll see you around, it was nice catching up though." He saluted and went to go mingle. "Your cups m'lord." I snickered placing the bags on the table next to the keg and in front of where Pope was currently standing. "Thank you, that is all... so you ready to be the center of attention for a bit?" Pope asked. "Not that I want to be, but I get it being the afformentioned summer mystery guest, I'll survive, besides you, JJ, and Johnny boy will be my personal bodyguards for tonight won't you?" I smirk. "Of course Heyward, Maybank, and Routledge Security at your service." He jokingly saluted. "Thanks. I can always can on you guys, and remember you guys can always count on me too I mean it." I replied. "Always." He smiled. "Speaking of Routledge, where is Johnny Boy?, I need to return his keys."I inquired holding up his keys and swinging them back and forth from the ring. "He's around here somewhere, but don't look now he who shall definitely not be named is headed your way." Pope warned. "Oh Joy." I muttered sarastically taking a breath pasting on a smile and turning around. "So Topper wasn't pulling my leg when he told me who the summer mystery guest was, it really is you Y/n so good to see you! C'mere." Barry forcefully pulled me into a hug. "Barry, Always a pleasure." I muttered squirming out of his embrace and putting some space between us. "Did you miss me as much as I've missed you pretty lady?" He tried to flirt. I had to hold back a gag. "No." I said under my breath. "What was that?" He raised an eyebrow. "I said I don't know... as In because I don't know how much you missed me." I played along not wanting to start anything. "I'll take that as a yes. RAFE!! KELCE!! Get over here, Top wasn't joking look who it is!" Barry cheered calling Rafe and Kelce over to us. "Kelce, how've you been?" I asked cordially, giving a polite side hug. "Ya know school, college apps, hanging in there." he chuckled. "I feel ya on that one." I nodded. "Rafe! you hanging in there too?" I jokingly bantered as he gathered me into a hug, playfully mussing my hair. "You know it, Gorgeous." He flirted. I finally spotted JB and subtly got his attention and sent him a help me look. Which of course he swooped right in. "Gentlemen how are we this evening, can I intrest you in some refreshments?" He came up with an excuse pointing out the short line implying they should get some now before they have to wait a while. "Ah good man, Y/n/n we'll be back. Good to see you, don't miss me too much." Rafe winked and smirked walking off Kelce trailing next to him. "I'll be sure to see you around sweet cheeks." Barry attempted to flirt. "Blegh, thanks for the intervention Johnny Boy." I shuttered. "Not a problem, I've got your back, you've got mine, anyways you were looking for me?" He asked. "Thanks, and yeah here's your keys back." I chuckled and dropped them into his hand. "Ah I thought JJ had gotten them back." he laughed fidgeting with them. "Not since he gave them to me so I could get the cups." I explained. "Makes sense, I wouldn't mind you holding onto them though... that way I had to find you when it was time to go... giving me an excuse to drive you home, or invite you to mine..." He trailed nervously, with a sweet chuckle. "Hmmm in that case..." I smirked and nabbed them back. "Cool." He grinned. "Cool... just don't forget I have them." I winked. I perked up as I heard the opening notes to my favorite song. Kie came out of nowhere grabbing my hands and pulling me to the dance floor where Cleo and Sarah were already dancing. "LET'S DANCE" She encouraged. So we did letting lose and moving our bodies to the beat of the music. We danced to who knows how many songs, for who knows how long, but the sun went down and we kept going having loads of fun, until finally JJ Found me "Y/N You. Me. a winning team, Beer pong right now!" JJ interupted our moment slinging an arm around my shoulder giving me puppy dog eyes. "Only if you're in the zone, I'm not drinking for you." I laughed. "Pssh we got this!" JJ asserted."Who we playing against. " I asked. "Uhh Barry and Rafe." JJ snickered rubbing his hands together. "OOh this'll be fun, they're going down. I'm in let's do this J." I nodded. "Atta girl, right this way." He said leading me over to the pong setup arm still slung around my shoulders. "Johnny Boy, you gonna watch?" I called over my shoulder eyes sparkling. "Wouldn't miss it Sunshine." He chuckled following along. I paused "Sunshine?... I finally get a nickname?!" I asked excitedly. "Only I-If you like it, I can-" John B started to backtrack but I cut him off. "No! no no I love it, especially because you chose it... but only you can call me that okay." I Informed. "Okay...Sunshine." He smiled at me. "Okay then Johnny Boy." I laugh back. "Alright C'mon let's play!" JJ redirected pulling me along to the table. "Found a partner, King Kook, Let's play." JJ teased. Barry narrowed his eyes at the sight of JJ's arm slung around my shoulder. "Hands off my girl Maybank." He hissed. "UH maybe in your dreams Barry." I scoffed at his audacity. "Every night pretty girl and I must say they're quite enjoyable." He insinuates wiggling his eyebrow. "EWW." I cringed. "All right All right, ladies and gentlemen! on this side you've got the island known team Rafe and Barry! and on this side Maybank and y/n/n our mystery summer guest! Who will win?? LET THE GAME BEGIN!!" Kie announced. I picked up the ping pong ball and with an expert flick of my wrist, Immediately sunk it in. "Drink up!" I called laughing. Barry downed the beer corresponding to the cup of water the ball went into to, moving that cup out of the line up. Because the ball would more than likely end up hitting the ground more that once we had decided on using cups of water to throw the ball in so we didn't waste any beer and it didn't get all sandy and nasty from the ball. He then grabbed the ball lined up his shot and it went in too. "I'll take this one m'lady." JJ said downing the beer. "Thanks. You're up." I said handing him the ball. And so it went whittling down until there was four of six still on our side and JJ and I hadn't missed a shot so there was only one left on Barry and Rafe's side, meaning all I had to do was make this last shot and JJ and I would win. "You got this Y/n/n s" JJ encouraged. "Oh I definitely do... but Imma make it interesting though." I smirked. "Yo Johnny Boy, may I borrow your bandana for a moment please? I'll give it right back." I asked innocently. "Of course, here ya go." He smiled placing it in my hand. "Thank you." I said in a singsong voice. I stepped up to the table and tied the blindfold around my eyes." "Ooh kinky... y/n" Barry said. "Shut it." I ordered. "JJ ball please." I held out my hand for the ball. "Here you are." He placed the ball in my hand. I took four steps away from the table, kicked off one of my shoes and kicked into a headstand, gripping the ball with my toes. "What the...?" Topper trailed off from the sidelines curious and mesmerized. "There's no way." Rafe scoffed. "Hundred Bucks says she bails." Barry snickered. A hushed silence fell over the crowd as everyone watched in anticipation wanting to know if i'd make the shot. And with practiced precision, thank you Stiles for your crazy dares, I sent the ball flying and heard the familar clunk-splish and the crowd went nuts, as I stood from my headstand and removed the bandana. "THAT WAS FUCKING INCREDIBLE!!!" Y/N FUCKING Y/L/N EVERYONE! MY BEER PONG PARTNER FOR THE REST OF THE SUMMER!!!" JJ Cheered hoisting me onto his shoulders and running me around in celebration. I just laughed and waved. Finally JJ set me down and we walked back to the table. "Good Game guys." I first shook Rafe's hand then turned to shake Barry's just trying to be sportsman like but Barry had other ideas. "Amazing Shot sweet cheeks, here's your prize." And before I could register what he meant his grip on my hand tightened and he yanked me into him forcefully crashing his lips to mine, as one hand came up and groped my boob and the other snaked around my waist and fondled my ass. "WHAT THE FUCK!!!" I shrieked. Grabbing the hand on my boob I jammed my thumb into his palm, bending under his arm escaping his grasp, twisting his arm behind his back in the process. Slamming the side of my foot into the back of his knees sending him toppling down, I then leaned into the arm I had twisted shoving it into his back. "Do not ever touch, me, again, Do not touch any girl for that matter without consent. That's assault, what you just did, you just assaulted me. YOU ARE lucky I don't break your fucking arm right here right now. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?! If you ever EVER touch me like that again, or I find out you've done it to some other girl, I will boil your teeth, invert your ribcage, then kick your ass so hard, your vertebrae will pop out of your mouth one by one like a FUCKING pez dispenser. Do. I. Make. Myself. CLEAR." I stated silently thanking Derek for the creative yet uncomfortable threat. "YES yes, crystal clear, just- ow- stop." Barry pleaded. "Now leave, and don't come near us again." I stated calmly like Scott had taught me, because it was way more frightening that way. I let his arm go because I thought he'd gotten the message but apparently all I did was bruise his ego, which pissed him off. I let out a strangled yelp as he grabbed a fist full of my hair and yanked my head back so I was forced to look up at him. "NOW you listen here you LITTLE bitch. You should consider yourself LUCKY i'm giving you the time of day, you know how many girls would kill to be in your position. "Um none I would hope." I spit clawing at his hand. "THAT'S IT!" He roared and dragged me to the ocean. "BARRY- B- WH- WHat ARE you DOINg?!" I was beginning to panic. "You shouldn't have pissed me off." He growled through gritted teeth. Then Suddenly I was underwater. Salt stinging my eyes, nose, throat, and lungs. Then I was yanked back to the surface. "BARRY Ple-" I was plunged back under. Then up again. "NO." I gasped sputtering for air. But he just plunged me under again, gulping down saltwater as my lungs tried to gasp for air. Then surface again, I couldn't even formulate words anymore at this point, just gasping choking, then plunged under again. My Lungs burning, vision going blurry. My life flashing before my eyes. I kicked and scratched but it made no difference he was blinded by rage. My mind panicked as it registered he wasn't bringing me up to the surface anymore, he was really trying to kill me. Then Darkness.
