Will it ever stop? | JJ Maybanks

What does this have to do with me?

Y/N's POV

and now here I am. At home all alone. I mostly go out for a walk listening to music. Sometimes the internet just stops working on the pogue side while the kooks have unlimited internet. Kinda unfair, yeah. If you told me I would be a pogue a year ago, I would've laughed in your face but here I am.

It was really early in the morning but I couldn't stay asleep so I've decided to go to the beach to sit and relax for a bit. I wore a bikini under my outfit just incase I was going after a swim later on. My house was pretty near to the beach so it didn't take me long.

I sat down on the sand and looked at the calming waves. I saw 4 people surfing and laughing really loud. I smiled to myself seeing them having fun. A few minutes later I recognized the two faces which belonged to JJ and John B. Why are they out so early? It was like 7AM. I was continuing watching them as they came out of the water chasing each other but one face dropped as they saw me. It was none other than JJ. I saw him whisper to John B while looking at me. I roll my eyes but don't move. Why does he still think that I was a part of my brothers plan?

I decided to ignore them and was doing my thing when I saw a shadow building infront of me. I look up and it's John B. "Hey Y/N.. what are you doing here?" He asks kinda disrespectful. "Nothing really. Just chillin' yknow." I answer. He nods "haven't seen you in a while.. Last time I've heard from you was when yknow.." he was hinting on my mom's leaving. I nod slowly "yeaaaah" i say feeling really awkward. "You know maybe we could hang out again? If you want to." He suggests. This shocked me ngl. I thought he hates me the same way as JJ does.

"Totally!" I say excited and happy. "See you around?" "Yeah see you" i say back before he leaves off with the others. I don't look back at the others since I know JJ's reaction which wouldn't make me feel any better. It's actually been like 4 months since the last time I've seen him. I miss him everyday.

The next day I order some chinese takeaway because I don't really have things to cook at home plus the chinese restaurant down the street sells it really cheap. It's a cool evening but the sun is still shining. I won't bother dressing up so I'll just go with pjs. Who would see me anyways?

I'm walking down the street when I see Rafe, probably just going home after buying some drugs for todays kook party. Of course I miss being invited to those partys but if they're real friends they wouldn't care if I was a pogue or not. They only care about money. He sees me and just stares at me for a while. "Uhm hello?" I say confused by his staring. I know Rafe's a weird dude but he just wants to be loved and accepted by his family. "Hi Y/N. Did Steward call you back?" He asks still worried about my brother even tho its been 5 months now. I shake my head, I mean why would he ever call back? He probably has a new number anyway. He nods weirdly and hugs me suddenly. "Look.. I know this is hard for you. Its hard for everyone that goes through this but you're not doing this by yourself, right?" He says trying to comfort me. "I know Rafeeee. I moved on. Im okay, really." I try to assure him even tho thats far from the truth. He nods but I know that he doesn't believe what I said rn. "So.. yeah. I gotta go. I'll come over sometime." He says getting on his motorcycle. I watch him drive away and then start walking to the chinese restaurant again.

After eating this delicious dinner I was about to watch TV but the somebody knocked on the door. Who visits me at this time? I haven't had visitors ever since I've been living here. I open the door to John B. I look at him confused waiting for him to say anything. "Hey. Im so sorry for this very late visit, really. But we kinda need your help right now." He speaks really quickly. "My help? For what." I got even more confused. "Could we like... stay here over night?" He asks kinda embarrassed. "Uhm.. who's we?" I ask not understanding a single bit of whats happening right now. He turns around and does something with his hands for them to come over and it was Pope, Kiara and.. JJ, who didn't really seem to like the idea of staying over at my place.

I look at each of them and 3 of them sending me an apologetic look. "Why do you need to stay at my house?" I get more confused as we talk. "Long story. I'll explain everything inside, okay?" He says looking behind him nervously. "Alright..." I move to the side for them to come in. "I didn't really have visitors these past months so please don't mind the mess.." I apologize. Nobody says anything which is, I suppose, a good thing. "Also, I don't really have beds to sleep in expect for one, which is mine. But I could set up some mattresses in my bedroom." I offer. They look around acting like the police trying to find something illegal.

"Yeah anything is fine really. We could all just sleep on the floor tbh." Kiara says. I nod going into my bedroom and try to take the mattresses out of my closet. I usually only take them out when I'm trying to get cozy in front of the TV or if my dad doesn't want to sleep on the couch. I only had two which meant they had to share. I put them on the floor and try to make them look cozy by putting two pillows each. After I'm done I walk back to the living room seeing them discuss something that seems really important. "So. Why do you guys need to stay at my house for?" I ask genuinely confused.

After John B explains everything, I still have no clue what he was talking about. I just nod pretending to understand. So there are some cops trying to find John B for whatever reason. They are out treasure hunting which is the reason behind his fathers death and so on. At one point I just got to confused that I stopped listening. "But if this is police related... this won't get me to jail right?" I ask kinda scared of the consequences. They all shake their head except for JJ who says "they will always find a reason to get you locked up. Welcome to pogue life, kook." He says in a annoyed kind of tone. I just look at him and nod clearly getting annoyed by his stupid remarks.

There's another knock on the door "Police. Open up." I hear a manly voice say...
