snuck in through the garden gate (every night that summer just to seal my fate)

(chapters are going start to get a little longer! also much more jiara next chapter)

After school, all of them went to the Wreck for food, they obviously weren't going to tell Kiara's parents about it so they kept it on the down low, they were are sitting down at a table outside next to Kie's parents, Kie leant into the table to whisper "Guys, let's go out to the dock, less chance of hearing us there" both the boys nodded in agreement, they walked through the Wreck and out the back door, "Just for the record-" JJ started "I never doubted them" Kie laughed and turned back to him, their faces were really close "I owe you five bucks" he pointed in her face "Yeah don't be joking cause I need tha-" he almost finished his sentence when Kiara's mom yelled out to her "Kiara I do need those setups done by five!" She continued walking and yelled, "Y'know there are other people that work here!" "But ain't none of em' my children!" Anna yelled back, she rolled her eyes, "I feel that, on a deep emotional level" Pope said, they all sat down on the seats at the end of the docks and started to discuss, JJ sat next to Kie up the top of the seats and Pope sat on the bottom, JJ and Kie's legs were touching, Pope looked, he thought, he looked again, and then brushed it off, it was just their legs touching? "So are we going to the Bahamas or what?" JJ said taking off his hat, Pope spoke back, "There's no way we can get to the Bahamas..." "John B's gonna get knabbed sooner or later... so if were gonna clear his name we need to have done it like yesterday" Kie said, "I'll tell you how we do it" JJ said leaning onto his knees, Pope looked at him "Of course, JJ always has a logical solution to every problem, go on" JJ turned to Pope "Just let me speak alright?, I think... we kidnap Rafe" Kie screwed her face up at him, Pope gave him a similar expression "I'm sorry what?" "We kidnap Rafe, tie him up and stick the gun in his mouth and just wait till he starts talking, in and out" Kie butt in "You know tortures a war crime..." "Well I thought it was a good idea so..." "Yeah, so how exactly do you plan on clearing John B's name from prison.... because that's a felony" JJ turned his head from looking at Pope to look at his feet "Alright well what do you got Pope? I was just trying to keep it simple.. you know one stop and were done" Kie snapped back "Yeah sure, simple" Pope continued "Guys, all we need is a material witness, we saw Ward's plane fly right over out heads, with the gold inside of it" "We didn't physically see the gold though, wouldn't we need proof that it was actually on the plane?" Kie questioned "That doesn't matter right now, look what matters is clearing John B's name, and we know ward didn't fly that plane. If somebody else flew it, they were on the tarmac, they would have seen Peterkin get murdered" Kie and JJ looked at each other and then looked at Pope, "We just have to find whoever that was and get them to confess on record" Kie made a face "How do we do that though?" Pope Looked at them and smile, "A little light espionage" they smirked back at him, JJ stood up and put his hat back on backwards, he held out both his hands to them "Woogity Woogity?" 

It was a friday night so they were a bit more lenient with their plan, They probably should have come up with something more full proof but they had to play this kind of plan by ear. 

Kie walked around the counter following her dad, "No Kiara" "Dad please, I haven't stayed at the chateau for like two weeks!" "You can go one night without it, we need you for tables!" "Dad look at how many other people are working here!" she flung her hands around, Pope and JJ stood watching, Pope whispered to JJ "Reckon we should just make a run for it or..." "I was think about it.." Kiara kept talking "Dad, please, it's just one night, I'll be home in the morning, I promise" Mike sighed and looked back at the boys "Fine" he said handing her the car keys, her eyes lit up "Thank you!" she said walking back around the counter "I want you home at a reasonable time tomorrow Kiara" she waved her hand at the boys to get them to know she was good "And don't crash the car again!" "I'll try!" she yelled back.

Kie already had a bag of stuff, because she really was staying at the chateau, and the good thing was, it was just going to be her and JJ. They had found the address of the guy who was on the tarmac that day "If this guy was flying planes for ward he has got to be pretty tight lipped" Kie was driving and Pope was in the passengers seat, leaving JJ in the back, "I wonder how much hush money Ward paid him" Kie said, Pope spoke back "With the planes he's got, at least 50k" they heard a click from the backseat "And If he doesn't talk easily... direct approach gets my vote" JJ said pulling out his gun, "JJ NO!" Pope said, "Absolutely no! What!" Kie said, "Put the gun away JJ" "Guys we gotta keep this simple!" Kie rolled her eyes and turned to talk to him "JJ, please, don't be stupid, put the gun away" he listened, wow, he actually listened, "So what's your master plan Pope" JJ sounded annoyed, "We're going to tickle the wire" he said holding up Kie's air pods "Huh?" they both said looking at him "I'll plant my phone in his car, and we can listen on your Air pods" he held up his phone to Kie's mouth and put the air pods in "Say something" he said to her "Something" she said with annoyance, sound echoed out of Pope's ears, "Good, we've got audio"

They pulled up to his house, as Pope got out he said "Honk or... yell if you see anything suspicious" "Don't do anything dangerous" she said back to him "Come on i'm not JJ" JJ spoke back "Funny Pope, love third wheeling, it's my favorite thing" Kie rolled her eyes "Shut up" she said quietly "Jus' a joke" he said back, they hadn't been able to kiss each other since the morning and it was driving them crazy, but they had the whole night to themself, after this was over and done with of course, JJ crawled into the front seat next to Kiara "Hi" she said "Hi" he said back, he leaned over and gave her a peck on the lips, they looked at each other, smiled, and started to kiss again, this time it was deeper, she let out a small mumble into his lips "J" he hummed back meaning 'Yeah?' "JJ" she tried to break away, he wouldn't let go, she pulled back and kept one hand on his cheek "Were supposed to be on lookout" she smiled at him, he shook his head, "I don't care" he kissed her again, she pulled back again "JJ I'm serious" "Fine" he said, flopping back in his seat "But I have questions while we wait" she hummed in response, leanign her head back on the car seat "Better kisser, John B or Pope?" she was so taken back "WHAT?!" she laughed "Why are you asking?!" he made a face "I don't know, just kinda curious" he looked back at her, smirking, god she was so pussy whipped "I'm bored, I'm just spit balling here" she looked out the front of the car "We don't need to spit ball, we could just sit it silence, that's what they did, for about 10 seconds before JJ plunged over the car seat to try kiss her again, she tried to get away, laughing, they were both laughing, he loved her laugh, the sound of it, it made him happy, she made him happy.
