THEsun was shining again, indicating that a new day had begun. It's rays had woken me up when I found JJ holding me close, as I was almost sleeping on top of him. I had my legs resting on top of his, folded up on our seat and my entire body was just cuddled into his side too.
As he'd promised, I didn't get scared. I didn't have any nightmares while I had him holding me close. I think I got enough sleep to keep myself functioning for the nightmare today will throw at us.
I had opened my eyes, watching the sky and birds and trees out of the window, my head still resting on JJ's shoulder. He was awake too, as his one hand rested on my thigh, and the other was on my back, comfortingly rubbing it and occasionally his fingers would draw pattern on my back or play with the ends of my hair.
I noticed everyone was awake in the car but none of us had enough energy to break the chilling and heavy, tension-filled silence. The radio was the only thing on and breaking the silence.
I lifted my head and jerked, alerted when a cop car drove down the road, without noticing us in our hiding spot.
"You're okay, baby," JJ whispered to me, rubbing my back soothingly as he pulls me back to lay snuggled into his side.
"Good news for residents of Outer Banks. Dominion power says their underwater transmission line, which will restore power to 90% of the area, should be functional within the next 24 hours." The guy on the radio went on. "And still no arrest in the shooting death of Sheriff Susan Peterkin. The state police have issued a local person of interest--a juvenile--"
Kie turned the radio off. "That's enough," she muttered, sighing.
"A local person of interest..." I trailed off, frowning as I sat up straight.
"What?" JJ asked, confused.
"They didn't say two..." I replied, making him frown further.
"What are you getting at Coco?" John B asked.
"The voiceover we heard at the station...it said I was an accomplice...so, shouldn't the accomplice also get charged, according to the law?" I questioned, looking at everyone. "Why are they only coming after you?" I looked at my brother.
"Love the fact, that you also wanna get charged in court, right by my side, baby sis," John B rolled his eyes.
I flick his forehead, rolling my eyes. "I'm your twin, loser. And that's not what I mean...if they are going after you, why are they not going after me? I mean, I was there on the airstrip and from what I know Ward has told the cops that we both are to be blamed for Peterkin's death..." I explained, confused as hell.
