Kiara flung open The Wreck door, not even bothering to hold it for the girl behind her. The boys were all excited to go that they began cheering for Kiara to hurry up. JJ was the first to notice the figure trying to keep up with the curly haired girl who was purposely walking fast.
"Lets go." Kie commanded hopping into the back of the van without even looking at her friends.
"I thought you made up with her." Pope hissed hitting John B in the side.
"Ow!" He swore hitting Pope back. "And I did!"
"I'm not mad at you idiots." Kie huffed looking at the brunette who looked like a model walking down a runway as she made her way towards the van. Both John B and Pope turned to see what Kie was looking at.
JJ had been staring at Scarlett since she exited the restaurant, barely dodging getting hit by the door that Kie refused to hold open. He would definitely agree with Kie's model analysis. There was a slight breeze that blew through Scarlett's long locks as she got closer.
"Oh shit." Pope cursed noticing the look of annoyance on JJ's face. He knew this was not going to end well. He already had the pleasure of listening to JJ's ranting about Scarlett being back when he drove the blonde home from the beach the other night. All JJ could talk about was how annoyed he was that she was acting like nothing changed between them. Pope knew that JJ was happy to see her but he was being stubborn like usual and acting like a dick instead of accepting the girl back and being happy.
Pope himself was ecstatic that Scarlett was back. He would have hugged her that night on the beach if it wasn't for all of the drama. He actually felt bad for the way that he treated her.
"Lettie?" John B breathed out wondering if he was once again dreaming. He thought he saw her or an angel that night when Topper bet him up but he just chalked it down to him being both drunk and almost drowning. He thought he saw his dad too so his judgement really couldn't be trusted.
"Hey Booker. It's nice to see you not on the brink of death."
John B didn't waste a single second before flinging himself at Scarlett. The tall boy wrapped his arms around her body lifting her into a bear hug. The two laughed together as he swung her in a circle not wanting to put her down.
"I'm literally so confused right now." Kiara mumbled looking at JJ and Pope for an answer but the two boys were too busy watching the reunion.
JJ was jealous but his stubbornness and pride stopped him from reacting the same way as John B. He wanted nothing more than to pick the girl up in a hug and maybe even kiss her but he couldn't forget how much she hurt him by leaving.
When John B finally put the girl down, Scarlett had the brightest smile on her face. She was happy that at least one of her old friends seemed to miss her.
"Can someone explain to me what's going on?" Kiara asked.
"This is my sister Scarlett." John B smiled slinging his arm around her shoulders. "Lettie this is Kie."
"We um briefly met." Scarlett awkwardly stated.
"Sister?" Kie wondered. She never heard John B mention having a sister in the time she's known him.
"They're not related." Pope answered shaking his head.
"Technically were are so..." The boy trailed off sending Pope a glare.
"Bullshit." JJ scoffed finally speaking up. Scarlett could tell by his face that he wasn't happy about her being there but she'd work on befriending him again. She was already one step closer now with John B on her side.
"We totally are! My grandfather's brother married her grandmother's cousin." He explained sassily.
"Dude..." Pope sighed.
"How do you even know that?" Kie was just getting more and more confused by the second.
"I'm not sure that qualifies as us being blood related but we're definitely brother and sister in our hearts." Scarlett said sweetly not wanting to bruise John B's ego and admit that he was wrong. Plus the two did grow up together like brother and sister. Whenever Big John was out on some treasure hunt her parents would look after John B just like they'd take care of JJ. Scarlett's parents loved all of her friends like they were their own kids.
"Whatever can we just leave already." The curly haired girl groaned. She was totally happy about the way the boys seemed to be enchanted by Scarlett.
"Yeah, let's go!" John B cheered rushing over to the drivers side of the van.
Pope quickly took John B's spot, giving Scarlett a hug and telling her how happy he was to have her back. The two then made their way into the back of the van by Kiara. JJ was the only one to not enter the van.
"Wait she's coming with us?" The blonde boy wondered aloud looking at his three best friends.
"My dad is forcing me to bring her." Kie replied with a roll of her eyes.
"It's Lettie." John B scoffed looking at his brother. He was happy that he was finally beginning to feel complete. All that was missing was his dad but if they continued on the path they were there was a chance they'd find him.
"So, we haven't seen her in like three years and now that she's back she's hanging with kooks." JJ shot back, trying to not feel guilty about the look of hurt on Scarlett's face at the fact that he didn't trust her.
"I'm not hanging out with kooks." The Campbell teen sighed. "I'm really only friends with Sarah, everyone else I just have to be around because of Mercedes."
"Of course you're friends with Sarah. Just wait a couple of weeks and she'll turn on you." Kie spat thinking of the blonde haired girl that everyone seemed to be obsessed with.
"Lettie's not going to tell the kooks anything even if she's friends with Sarah." John B assured his two friends.
"Yeah." Pope nodded agreeing with the Routledge boy for once. "We know Lettie, she's not like that."
"Thanks guys." The girl blushed feeling loved and accepted for the first time since she's been back.
"Whatever." JJ scoffed getting in the passenger seat. "Don't come crying to me when she chooses them over us. Seems to run in the family."
All Scarlett could do was stare at the back of JJ's head as the van took off, the destination unknown to the brunette. She was trying to not let her hurt show but she was definitely upset by the way that JJ was acting. Scarlett was going to have a serious talk with him the second she could get him alone.
