THE SURF had been calling me all night long, and as soon as John b asked me to join them at the beach, I jumped on the occasion even though I knew jj would be there.
"Hey guys," I greeted, my board under my arm.
"Hey rory" John B welcomed me, waxing his board. I waved at all of them, except for JJ who didn't even glance at me, and I didn't really care. "Ready to surf?"
"Let's hit those waves Pogue style," Pope spoke as he ran to the waves and I followed him with my own board.
I surfed along with Pope, following him in the rollers, making my best not to fall in front of everyone, which would have been pretty embarrassing I admit.
After an hour of intense surf, I walked back to the sand, exhausted and sat next to Kiara on her board.

my dad, been begging me to make friends. He thinks you're a Kook, so it makes everything easier," Kiara spoke and JJ cleared his throat.
"Well, she is," the blonde boy said.
"Oh you didn't loose your tongue? you had been too quiet for the last hour for it to last," I complained.
He raised his middle finger at me and I focused on the two boys still surfing.
"Hey be careful you got drool in the corner of your mouth," JJ joked, referring to how I was looking at the two boys, I assumed.
"Jealous I don't look at you the same way?" I replied and he raised his middle finger at me again for only
answer.
John B and Pope walked back to us and we all grabbed a beer.

"How long as it been since you surf?" John B asked me.
"I've surfed for as long as I can remember, I think I was four, or something when I first started. My mum was world champion and won gold at the Olympics so she kinda raised me into it
"Really? that's so cool!" Pope said excitedly.
"We started it when we were kids too, but not so young," Kiara explained. "the boys could surf more than I could since their parents didn't mind, but my parents, they used to yell at me every time I was touching my board"
We all laughed at her comment and I took a sip of my beer, my wet strands falling over my shoulders. "Why?" I asked.
"Cause it's a Pogue thing," JJ explained.
"Oh, right. A Pogue thing," I laughed as I said it "Why are you even called Pogues?"
"It's a type of fish, the lowest member of the food chain. You know, we use those fish to help catch others and stuff" John b said
" Oh that actually makes sense"
"Life here makes sense princess," JJ laughed saying it, taking a sip of his beer and replacing his blonde hair

We all went to collect wood for the campfire and sat around it as it's began to get dark . Only JJ didn't surf that day, which surprised everyone, because he was apparently the best out of them all. "How did you guys meet?" I asked them. "I don't think I've asked you"
"JJ and I have been friends since third grade," John B explained. "Then Pope joined us, and Kie"
"Oh so you guys were at school together," I said smiling.
"Yeah, the three of us have always been at Kildare," Pope explained, pointing at himself and the boys. "Kie went to her Kook school for a year but now she's back with us"
"Oh wait there's a Kook and a Pogue school?" I asked and they nodded. "It just makes no sense. We didn't have this whole community thing in Florida"
"Nothing pushes you to stay here, feel free to go back there" JJ slyly spoke, probably still upset about the other day
"JJ if you don't have anything nice to say just don't speak," Kie tried to temper.
"How about you, tell us about your life in Florida," Pope spoke quietly.

about my life, nothing really interesting happened. I was in a  High-school, had a few friends, surfed everyday, that's it"
"Must have been hard to leave your friends behind you," John B stated.
"Not so much actually, I tried not to think of why I left"
"Sorry about ur parents and there jobs" pope said
"Nah it's fine I'm liking it here" i say
Jj huffed
"What's wrong now" I say rolling my eyes
"Well why not tell them the real reason ur here" he smirks
"jJ don't" kie says
"Oh so she knows to" he laughs
"Knows what" pope asks
"Well little miss princess here is lying" he smirks looking at me
"Please don't JJ" I plead
He laughs "rich girls parents didn't forget her white work they died"
I look at the ground with tears in my eyes
"JJ REALLY!" Kie yells
"Rory" John b says softly
"Um iv got to go" i say getting up grabbing my stuff
"No Rory wait don't go" kie said
I didn't listen I just walked tears started coming out of my eyes, they knew and it was a lie
"JJ GO APOLOGIES" pope yells at him
"No why should I" he responds
"GO!" They all yell
He whines and gets up chasing after me
"Rory...Rory wait I'm sorry" he says catching up
"Your sorry really" i laugh at him
"Are you crying" he says his face dropping a little
"Yes maybe I am because guess what I have feelings" I cry
"Look I'm sorry ok they had to know " he said
"No they didn't" I scream
"Well no need to yell I said sorry" he rolls his eyes
"Yeh well JJ I don't care anymore"
My phone vibrated again I look at it
Unknown- hey Aurora did u miss me
Unknown- stop leaving me on open or else
Unknown- once I get to u you are dead
I read it and my heart sinks
"Stop looking at ur phone i trying to apologise" jj says snatching my phone out of my hand
"No jj please give it back" I plead
"Not u till u accept my apology" he says
"Fine I accept it besties whatever, please give it back" i cry
"What's so important anyways" he laughs looking at my phone
"NO" I scream jumping at him trying to get my phone back but my 5foot ass couldn't even get close to getting it back
"Wtf who is this, r u in trouble" he says
"No I'm fine" i say finally snatching my phone back
"Rory you gotta tell me if ur in danger" he pleaded
"I'm fine it's nothing just some joke" I say not looking at him
Beofre he could say anything else I got in my car and drove away leaving jj standing there.
