Summer Lovin'

8

Next thing I know we're out in the marsh near the wreck we had found earlier, John b having brought a few tanks of oxygen that he stole from the Cameron's boat.

Sitting on the edge of the boat across from JJ I hear kie say "this is empty, you took empty tanks" as she inspects the oxygen tanks.

"Okay this one's a quarter full" she says in defeat
"It's enough for one of us"

"Love it when a plan comes together" pope says almost annoying me as his unoptimistic look on the situation.

"Does anybody know how to dive?" Kie asks the group as we remain silent

"Seriously nobody?" I say adding on

"It's kind of a kook sport" JJ says

"I... read about it" pope spoke up

"Great pope read about it so someone's gonna die" kie says

"Look you put the thing in your mouth and breathe. How hard could it be?" JJ asked

"Well if you come up too fast nitrogen gets into your blood and you get the bends" pope says using his knowledge to put advantage

"Bends like, bend over and..." JJ said starting to bend over

"The bends kills you" pope says unamused by JJs actions

"Right" JJ say standing back up

"I can.. I can dive" John b speaks up

"You can dive I'm cool with that" JJ added being happy that he wouldn't be ask risk for the bends

"Since when can you dive?" Kie asked not thrilled with the plan

"I'll do it it's fine" John b shot back

"Let me do some calculations real quick" pope said standing up and getting to writing something on a piece of paper.

"You serious?" Kie asked quietly to John b as I watched them interact, kie then standing up as pope continues to write

"That boats about 30 feet down" pope says talking to himself out loud

"Okay" John b said back

"So it'll take 25 minutes at most at that depth, which mean you have to make your safety stop at about... ten feet"

"All right for two minutes" pope continues as I notice kie take off her shirt and jumping into the water as John b repeats the instructions pope had just given him.

"Uh.." John b says as they all looked shocked at her actions

"What was that all about?" Pope asked the group

"I don't know but I liked it a lot" JJ spoke up

"What JJ? You never seen a girl take off her shirt before?" I asked in a teasing way

"Oh you want me to count... hmm let's see, we'll there's Hailey.. and Mia" he plays back starting to use his fingers to count as a laugh at him. When he stopped as kie resurfaced.

"Yeah uh, when your down there you look for the cargo hold. Stick this thing inside, and twist and pull okay?" JJ says to John b holding a little key looking thing.
