"They comin?" Cleo asked

"I havent seen anything." Pope answered

"Alright. So whats the plan now? Whats our plan B?" JJ said beginning to pace, "We just kicked the hornet's nest. We gotta think of something quick."

"JJ calm down." Pope said

"Calm down? Calm down, Pope? They have my girl man and if we do something to their guys they're gonna do something to Thea."

"That was your idea!" Sarah said

"Yeah. I know Sarah, Yeah i know okay!"

"shhhh."

"My bad. That ones on me. Why did we leave that island? Wait.. I got something."

The group rolled their eyes.

"What if i offer myself up as a hostage? Hear me out. I could do a trojan horse type thing."

"No. No!"

"Pope that how wars are won!"

"Thats not even how a trojan horse even works!"

"Fine. What do you got?" JJ asked defeated

"All right. Listen. I'm headed out to my boat, okay? I can give you a ride out and drop you somewhere safe, wherever. One thing tho."

Thea cringed

"Look at me. I know your friends are on the island and my sister. I'm not helping them, i cant trust them. Ill give you a ride out but not them. okay?"

"I dont care Rafe just get me off this island."

Rafe nodded, "Thats smart. Your learnin Thea. I never thought you were a pogue, even now your..your still a kook."

She chuckled slightly

"I mean i know i was awful to you Thea. I know it now and i knew it then, but i did love you."

"So all that pain and abuse was your way of saying you love me?"

"I just didnt know how-"

"But you did Rafe. You were the perfect guy in the beginning. And that was a lie! Do you know how much that fucks with someones head?"

"Thea im sorry."

"You messed me up dude."

"How is JJ any better? What makes him better than me? He's fucked up too you know."

"JJ never pretended to be the perfect guy or hid his shit."

The truck stopped by the pier and the two hopped out of the bed of the truck.
