THE REST OF THE DAY SEEMED TO PASS BY IN A BLUR as you eagerly awaited the appointed time. you prepared yourself, choosing comfortable clothes that would be suitable for the environment.
as the clock struck to five, you made your way to the docks of the marsh, excitement bubbling inside you.
upon arrival, you scoured the area for the small boat with hms pogue written on the side. finally, you spotted it, gently swaying in the water, and saw jj and the others waiting on board.
jj waved you over.
you waved back with a smile.
once you were in front of them, jj held out his hand for you and you took it almost instantly, in contrast to last night, guiding you inside the boat.
"hey, (name). good to see you again." john b greeted. "so, you're gonna tag along with us?"
"if that's okay with you."
you sat beside him and john b winked at you, causing you to look away in embarrassment.
jj scoffed at that.
"(name), are you sure you wanna come?" pope asked, sounding concerned.
"huh?"
"you still have time to back out, you know." kie suggested.
"w–wait, what do you mean by that?" you were taken aback, smile faltering as pope and kie looked reluctant to have you on board.
"you didn't tell her, jj?" pope had a look of disappointment on his face.
and kie had a look of anger. "you're dragging an innocent girl into this! someone who has nothing to do with any of this!–"
"okay, i didn't tell her about this." jj interjected into their complaints, sighing exasperatedly. "but she told me she enjoys our company and wants to continue to be friends with us."
"oh, she won't be once she finds out what we're doing." kie responded with a huff.
"uh, guys? i feel lost here. what are you talking about?" you butted into their quarrel.
"it's a long story. we can't talk about it here." john b said in a hush tone, narrowing his eyes to the people walking by, going about their day.
"well, whatever it is, i'm up for it." you shrugged. pope and kie were shocked by your answer while jj and john b smirked. "why do you look so shocked? isn't that what friends are for? we stick together through thick and thin? right? sorry, i'm new to this whole friends thing, so i'm not exactly sure..."
"you picked a good one, man." john b nudged jj, who nudged him back.
with that, they set off, heading to the place they found the missing grady-white.
