WHEN JJ FIRST SAW YOU, it was when he went out fishing by himself.
he would usually go fishing with his friends or engage in other activities with them, but john b was too busy looking after the camerons' boat, pope was too busy helping his dad with deliveries and kie was too busy helping her parents with their family-owned restaurant called "the wreck"
since they were all busy, he was alone.
he couldn't ask his parents to join him because he barely had any. his dad was an abusive drunkard who could care less about him, and due to his abusive behavior, his mom left and never came back. he had no siblings. he had no one.
he only had his friends.
but that changed until you showed up in his life.
while he was boredly waiting for a fish to nip at the bait, he spotted a girl swimming in the distance. her skin glistened under the warm rays of the sun and her hair danced with the rhythm of the waves. he was completely enamored by her elegance and how effortlessly she merges with the water.
it was you, whom he referred to as the beautiful nymph of the ocean, who looked like someone ripped out of a greek mythology book.
he couldn't take his eyes off of you, as if they were magnetically drawn to your presence. he could easily watch you for an eternity, and it felt entirely innocent.
he had dated many girls in the past and they were all beautiful, but none of them could hold a handle to your beauty. he felt an overwhelming desire to paint you, despite not knowing how to.
it was as if you sensed a pair of eyes on you because you began to descend into the water and swim away, disappearing from his line of sight.
he wasn't even sure whether or not he would see you again since he had never seen you around the island before. maybe you lived in the kook side of the island or you were a touron. nevertheless, he hoped to see you again. he wanted to know all about you. you were a mystery to be unravelled.
when he went to sleep that night, he dreamt of you.
and the next day, he told his friends about you, the so-called nymph girl he saw the other day, but they were clueless as they had never seen nor heard of you before.
"dude, slow down." john b put a hand on jj's shoulder. "okay? calm."
"dude, i can't."
"you sure you didn't hallucinate her? 'cause the way you're describing her is so unreal." pope assumed. "and you said you've never seen her before, so..."
"i wasn't smoking anything, pope." jj shook his head at pope's assumption. "i'm like 99.9% certain she's real, you guys. i saw her with my own two eyes. they were as big as this." he opened his eyes wide for emphasis.
"i'm not high all the time!" jj exclaimed, offended that his friend thought of him in such a way. he enjoyed smoking, but he didn't do it on a daily basis. unlike his father, who regularly smoked and drank heavily. he wasn't addicted to anything, to the point he'd lose all sense of self. he didn't want to be like him.
"john b's right. you need to calm down, man." kie raised her hands in a defense position.
"yeah, you're going crazy over this nymph girl, man." john b nodded.
"i can't help it." he sighed, running his hands through his hair. "she looks just like a dream, the prettiest girl i've ever seen."
his friends couldn't believe how he had fallen in love with someone he didn't even know so quickly.
"maybe she is a dream?" pope shrugged.
he was starting to consider that maybe you were really just a figment of his imagination. another part of him refused to believe you weren't real. he knew what he saw that day. he saw you with his own two eyes. you were real.
he was going to find out sooner or later.
