I'm sitting in my room at the chateau when Pope barges in panting from a bike ride.
"Hey." He says leaning against my doorframe.
"Hey."
"So John B and JJ went for a bit ride and the boat broke down and we need you to help fix it." He says.
"Fine." I say getting up.
Pope and I get onto his dad's boat and ride to where they are "stuck".
I climb onto the boat and see JJ and John B pretending to fix it.
They quickly jump off the boat and get into Pope's.
"What the hell are you going?" I yell.
I hear distant yells from someone and banging on the little hatch under the deck.
I open it and Sarah climbs out.
"Get your asses back here!" I yell to them.
"Sorry Ames." John B says laughing as they drive off.
Sarah jumps off the boat into the water and tries to swim after them.
"OW" I hear, she climbs back into the boat and she has a massive jellyfish sting on the right side of her body.
"Hey Mill you know what they say."
"No." I say in return.
"You have to per o-"
"Here." I cut her off grabbing some smokes.
"These are JJ's cousin's brand, just go careful, alright." I say passing her a smoke.
She nods.
She takes a puff and immediately starts coughing.
"I said to take it easy." I say with an eye roll before taking a puff.

"Your so fucking high." I tell her as she rambles on about things.
"I'm sorry." She blurts out.
"For?"
"For spreading the rumour about you calling the cops at my birthday party." She says.
"I shouldn't have" she continues.
I pull her into a hug.
"I'm sorry I called the cops." I whisper quietly into her ear.
We both start laughing.
"I knew it was you!" She yells.

Sarah and I sit on the edge of the boat the next day and the boys pull up in their boat.
"You guys ready?" John B yells.
"Let's not give them the satisfaction of knowing this worked." I whisper to Sarah who nods in return.
Sarah and I both get into the boat.
"We're willing to work together." Sarah says earning her a nod from me.
