My eyes slowly open because of the light that's shining in from the window. I roll over and see JJ peacefully sleeping next to me. I grab my phone off of the nightstand and I take a quick picture.

He starts to stir as I put my phone back onto the nightstand. "Good morning, babe." He smiles after rubbing his eyes.

"Morning." I smile at him before slipping out of bed. I quickly walk over to the dresser and I search for some clothes.

I grab a cropped white button up and some black wide legged jeans. I then slip on some sage green converse. I put my hair in a messy bun, along with some of Kie's necklaces.

"You look amazing." JJ says as he practically crawls out of bed.

"Thanks." I thank, I blush as I walk out and onto the porch.

"Hey guys, good mornin'" I greet as I flop onto the couch.

"Good morning." Everyone mumbles tiredly in unison.

JJ follows shortly behind me and sits on the floor, next to the couch. "Dude, I was just thinking- what if the titanic was fake." I say.

"Cmon- how could it be fake?" Pope asks in confusion.

"Like- there was only like one photo of it and-" I start but I get cut off by the door opening.

Sarah comes walking in, I quickly smile at her. "Well hello, princess." JJ greets.

"What's up?" Sarah asks as she plays with her hands nervously.

"Shouldn't you be on figure eight.. with your- little group of polo players?" John B asks as he looks up at Sarah. "What, did you break up with Topper?" He adds as Sarah looks at him in annoyance.

"We're just friends." Sarah smiles sarcastically.

"Oh he's just a friend." John B smiles back sarcastically, as well. "You have a lot of friends Sarah Cameron." He continues.

"Yeah and it seems that you got some of your own, too." Sarah quickly fires back.

"Alright, what are you doing here? What do you want?" John B asks as he sits up straight.

"I'm here for, Pope." She says as she turns to look at Pope, who's lying in the chair behind her. "I think I found the island room." She then says.

We all look at her with intrigued looks on our faces. John B, Kie, and Pope decide to change quickly and then we all leave.

"Guys, listen to this. The diary says that the cross holds the most holy relic in all of Chrisidin." Pope reads. "The garment of the savior." He finishes.

"So wait- he's saying theirs a holy garment inside the cross?" Kie asks.

"Yeah, it says the garment is capable of healing the sick for many maleny." Pope states as he stares at the diary's picture.

"Yeah- if only I may touch his garment, I shall be made well." JJ says as he looks at the picture.

We all look at him and give him confused looks. "What? I went to Sunday school." He defends.

"Sure." Kie mumbles.

"Well.. that explains why Limbrey would want the cross so bad. She thinks it could heal her." I point out.

"Hundred percent correct." Pope nods in agreement.

"What else does it say?" Kie asks.

"Many feel like we have sinned as steal such a sacred thing and God will strike his vengeance on us." Pope reads.
