"To be entirely honest I'm not ready to go all the way home yet." Sarah admits to the group
"Honestly? Me neither" Kie agrees.
"Bonfire at my place?" John B chimes in
"Hell fucking yes!" JJ replies
"Y'all in?" John B asks Pope and Cleo
"Uh yeah of course." Pope says
"Ha ha someone is in looooove" JJ teases
"Look who's talking" Cleo bites back
"She's got you there Jayj" Kie says
"Is loving my girl a crime god damn." JJ says wrapping his arm around Kies shoulders and kissing her on the head
"I feel like a proud mom right now" Sarah says "that was actually so random but you guys are the cutest."
"I'm hurt Sarah, I thought we were the cutest." John B says in a fake offended tone
"Yeah but I can't say that I think we're the cutest. It's unbecoming. Or something like that." Sarah says
"Alright let's get home guys." John B says as they pile into the Uber.
When they arrive back at the château, John B and JJ start finding things to burn, Sarah and Kiara gather snacks, and Pope and Cleo set up chairs and blankets.
"Bro I feel like a fucking raccoon." JJ says, digging through the garbage for things to burn.
"Tell me about it." John B replies
"So what do you like about Sarah?" JJ asks
"I don't know man, it's just that she's smart and she's so kind. Being with her feels easy and I don't have to try. I can talk to her about anything from all the deep shit to silly things like seeing ducks. I can laugh and cry with her. She's just the best person I have ever met. And even though everything in my life sucks, it doesn't feel as sucky because she's here. I'm just so lucky to love her." John B gushes
"I'm really happy for you man. You deserve her. I've never seen you happier than you are with her. It makes us all happier seeing you be so happy." JJ replies
"Okay now shut up and find more trash." John B says, trying to hide his blush.
"Cheep cheep" JJ says, making baby hands and clapping them together.
"Cheep cheep?" John B tries to hold back a laugh
"Isn't that the sound raccoons make?"
"Um no."
"Damn. My bad."
They both burst out laughing and keep digging for more garbage

"So what is it about John B that you like?" Kie asks Sarah, while they gather snacks
"How long do you have?" She replies
"As long as you need."
"Hmm okay, he is just the best, he has such a beautiful smile and he is so kind. He makes me laugh and it's so easy being with him. I don't have to try to talk to him or tell him things. It's just so effortless. He feels like home. I don't know how to explain what loving him feels like. But I can say I've never felt luckier to have someone in my life."
"I can say with confidence that he feels the same way about you. We have never seen him so happy ever. We really like having you around Sarah, not just because you make John B happy but because you fit right in. You were the piece of our friend group we didn't even know we were missing."
