CHAPTER FOUR
love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get only what you are expecting to give which is everything
BAMBI KNEW JOHN B WOULD BE OKAY, not because he was still breathing perfectly normally but because she heard him get up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
that was something he had always done and had never gone a night without, also a way to tell her she could smoke in her room without getting him walking in and complaining about the hot box.
she opened her eyes and was immediately met with JJ holding a joint in front of her. she didn't know how he got into her room.
"—how did you get in my room?" the girl asked, rubbing her eyes and taking the joint off him.
"John B let me in, everyone's outside because he wants to talk to everyone about this morning or something." the boy shrugged.
"let's go then." Bambi smiled, placing the joint in her mouth and lighting it before leaving her room and walking to the porch, JJ following behind.
as soon as she got outside, she could see John B glaring at the joint she was smoking, "you've just woken up, you don't need to be stoned every second of every day, especially when you were drunk out of your mind, last night."
"look, if smoking weed and getting so drunk that i can't remember anything makes me happy, then obviously i'm gonna do it." Bambi rolled her eyes, taking a seat on a chair.
"look, i'm calling it off. all right. Peterkin said, if i stay out of the marsh, she'll help me with DCS," John B told them, making Bambi furrow her eyebrows at the lack of knowledge.
"and you believed her?" JJ raised an eyebrow.
"yes, i believe her, JJ." John B fired back.
"an actual cop, John B. you believed a cop." JJ scoffed, throwing a rock while he sat on a table.
"all i gotta do is stay out of the marsh for a couple of days, and she will help me and Bambi out. it doesn't help that your ass was the one shooting the gun," John B snapped.
"not this again, i've already had it with these two," Bambi muttered, looking at Pope and Kie.
"you know what i should have done? i should have just let Topper drown her ass," JJ gestures towards Bambi.
"don't get me involved." Bambi raised her hands, not wanting to have to end up deciding if she was on JJ's or John B's side.
"yeah, 'cause Topper was gonna drown her?" John B chuckled.
