THE FERRY WAS CLOSED.
pope came back looking frantic and climbed into the drivers seat of kie's car, clutching a white piece of paper in his hand.
"okay- so- uh-"
"can you slow down before you have an aneurysm?" mara commanded.
"they're closed, and there's this." he said, passing the paper to kie, who grimaced. she passed it back to jj, who showed it to emery and mara.
"you gonna tell him, or am i?" emery asked, holding her hands up for rock paper scissors with mara.
"tell me what- what is that?" john b asked, clearly beginning to panic.
"well, this is a great framer of you." jj said nonchalantly, passing the paper to john b.
his face was on a poster with 'wanted' written across the top in bold, along with a twenty-five thousand dollar reward for the routledge boy.
"i'm gonna get this put on a flag and hang it on your porch." mara said sarcastically, passing the wanted poster to john b.
"so basically the whole island is looking for john b right now?" ainsley asked, emery nodding and biting her lip.
"i can call my mom. she can get us a boat and some money, or maybe give john b an alibi- something!" emery exclaimed, pulling her phone out of her pocket and clicking on one of amelia's missed calls while the rest of the group tried to figure out a solution. her mother picked up on the first ring.
"emery? where are you? are you and john b okay? is he arrested?"
"mom, slow down, me and john b are fine. i'm with jj, mara, pope, kie, ainsley, and him." emery explained, john b grabbing her arm to pull the phone towards him.
"hi, mom!" he called, jj's head snapping toward him.
"no, no, that's actually my mom!" jj retorted. "hi, milly! emery and i know your secret!"
"jj!" emery snapped, pulling her phone back to her ear.
