| THE PLAN |

"I told you this was a bad idea; Kiara is just too stubborn," Jade reminded John B, who grabbed a beer to clear his mind.

The friend group had just witnessed a heated argument between Kiara and Sarah. John B, Pope, JJ, and Jade found themselves in the cozy yet tense kitchen of the Routledge residence, trying to brainstorm a solution.

JJ, his lower back pressed casually against the counter, clutched a beer in one hand while his other hand found its familiar spot in the back pocket of his girlfriend's shorts.

"It's a no-brainer. You're picking Kie," advised the blond before bringing the bottle to his lips and taking a sip.

Jade, who had her arms wrapped snugly around the blond, suddenly pulled away to playfully smack him on the chest. "A no-brainer? So if I asked you to choose, you'd pick her over me?" she demanded, raising an eyebrow with a spark of jealousy dancing in her eyes.

The boy winced in pain from the sudden smack, nearly spitting out his beer, and threw his hands up in a dramatic gesture of innocence. "Ouch! That's not what I meant, I swear," he protested, his voice charming as he tried to avoid further provoking his girlfriend.

The Kook rolled her eyes and snatched the beer he'd been holding. "You better," she teased, her mock irritation barely masking the playful glint in her eyes. She took a slow sip, never breaking eye contact with JJ, a sly smile tugging at her lips.

Damn, she's hot when she pretending to be angry, he thought, feeling a rush of desire. The boy couldn't help but devour her with his gaze, his mind racing with fantasies of what he'd do if they were alone.

"Look, I can't make a decision," John B added, interrupting the couple and bringing them back to reality.

JJ moved his gaze away from his girlfriend and fixed it on his best friend. "So what? We're just dead in the water because you're pussy-whipped?" he shot back with a mocking tone as he pulled his girlfriend closer by her hips. "We can't do this without Kie, and you know it."

"And I can't do it without Sarah," John B sighed, torn between his best friend and his girlfriend. "Okay? They both have to be in on it. And you, too, Jade."

"Well, good luck with that," Pope laughed, a knowing grin spreading across his face. He knew that getting the three girls to resolve their argument would be anything but easy.

While the two boys debated their options, Jade and JJ were lost in their own world. The blond boy slid his hand into the back pocket of his girlfriend's shorts as she stood on her tiptoes to plant a tender kiss on his lips. JJ's lips curved into a grin against the kiss, and when she pulled back to gaze at him, she shyly mirrored his smile.
