𝐏𝐎𝐆𝐔𝐄𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐈𝐀. 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐀𝐒 our paradise. We hadn't been here long but it really felt like our paradise. JJ and I used to talk about leaving Outer Banks and finding a small beach house away from everyone else.

"Rescue?" The boy scoffed as he was making something sharp for us to catch fish with. He was referring to how the rest of the Pogues were waiting to be 'rescued' by a plane flying by or a boat, "From what? From paradise? I'm not going back. Ever. I mean, look around. We have everything we need. Right here."

I couldn't help but smile at him, "Just like we talked about."

JJ grinned, "Exactly. How's yours looking?" He asked. I held up my stick that was close to being finished, "You ready to provide for the family?"

I stood from my seat on a log, "Yeah."

"Let's go kill something." He joked.

Kiara rolled her eyes who had begun to approach us with Liv at her side.

"You don't have to say it like that." She scolded the boy.

JJ shrugged, "Yeah. That's exactly what we're gonna do."

The other two girls had been sticks of their own as we headed toward the ocean together, "It sounds so barbaric." The curly-haired girl scrunched up her face.

"It's the circle of life, Kie." The blonde spoke up.

I nodded, "Unless you wanna eat coconuts forever."

The blonde chuckled, "After the past month, I think everyone's good on coconuts."

I watched as my boyfriend pulled his shirt off of his body. I could tell her noticed I was looking by the smirk on his face, "Pretty girl?" He hummed.

I looked away with a smile as I tried to pretend I hadn't noticed.

"Guys, watch your shadow. If they see that, they're gone." He told us, "Just like we practised, all right, pretty girl."

I shrugged, "How hard can it be."

"Kie, there's a skate right beside you. Do you see him?" Olivia noticed, "He's seen me. He's coming over by you."

The Carrera girl suddenly frowned in horror, "I can't. I really can't."

JJ made an attempt to lunge for the fish, "Shit. I missed it. Where is it."

The other three looked around when I noticed it swimming by JJ's legs. I grunted as I stabbed my stick into its flesh.

I smiled when I had lifted the animal from the water, "You did it, pretty girl." JJ praised.

"Oh, shit." Kiara laughed.

I suddenly frowned when I looked out to the sea and noticed a boat that seemed to be coming towards the island, "Guys, do you see that?"

"See what?" JJ frowned.

"That boat." I replied, "Just under the horizon."

Liv shook her head, "I think it's just the whitecaps on the reef."

I scoffed, "You don't know that. It's right there."

I felt the blonde boy suddenly pull me into his chest from behind. I leaned into his body for any sort of comfort, "It's okay, pretty girl," JJ whispered into my ear and placed a kiss on my head.

Despite everyone telling me I was hallucinating and paranoid, I couldn't help but feel as though it wasn't the end with the Camerons.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐆𝐔𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐋𝐋 sat in a circle as we played truth or dare. The Cameron girl took the handmade hat off of her head and passed it to her boyfriend, "John B, your turn. Truth or dare?"

The blonde and I had gotten closer throughout the time we had been here. She apologised for never making an effort for the Pogue's sake and I nodded in agreement. Although I didn't apologise back, she understood.

"Truth." The brunette smiled as he took the hat and placed it on his head.

Sarah thought for a moment until she spoke, "If you could do it all again what would you do differently?"

I looked down to the sand after how deep the conversion had gotten, "Get the gold out before Ward did." JJ spoke up from beside me. His arm was slung over my shoulder as he peppered small kisses along my neck.

Pope shrugged, "Maybe hide the cross a little better."

"Steal a couple of bottles of rum before we jumped off the boat." John B answered.

I squirmed under my boyfriend's touch as his hot breath fanned against my skin, "I love you, pretty girl." He whispered into my ear. His love language was physical touch and words of affirmation.

Butterflies erupted in my stomach and I couldn't contain my smile, "I love you too." I whispered back.

"Kie, truth or dare?" The Routledge boy asked the girl as the hat was handed to her.

The girl thought for a moment until replying, "Truth."

"If you could go home to your parent's house on Figure Eight this instant would you do it?" He asked.

"No chance." She immediately replied, "The shower's tempting, though."

I nodded as I leaned back into JJ, "I know. I stink."

Everyone laughed as the hat was put on my head. Riley looked at me with a mischievous look in her eyes which I didn't miss, "I have a truth for you, Hales."

"Shoot," I told her. Normally, I wouldn't be one to pass up on a dare, but I was curious.

"Me or JJ?" She asked.

I scoffed. JJ's kisses seemed to get hungrier and I rolled my eyes, "Why are you trying to be so seductive? J. How's that even a question?" The group laughed as I passed the hat to the blonde boy, "Truth or dare, J?"

He scoffed, "Do you even have to ask?"

"Big jump. Nobody's done it yet." Riley smiled, "Come on. I'll do it with you."

"I'll do it if you do it." He told my sister.

"Bet." She laughed as the two made their way to the very high cliff.

I laughed at the two as I watched them reach the top, "There they are." Cleo yelled.

I watched as the two interlocked their hands and jumped into the deep ocean.

The Pogues cheered as I immediately ran over to the two. The rest of the group followed and I was immediately pulled into a pair of strong arms and was pulled off of my feet.

I wrapped my legs around the boy's torso as his fingers glided across my waist. I was taken off guard as his lips were suddenly pressed to mine, "I love you." I muttered against his lips.

"I love you more, pretty girl."
