ETERNAL SUNSHINE | Outer Banks

2. Boneyard

"Sarah! Sarah be careful, okay", Toppers voice rang out over the beach as she chased after his girlfriend.

"Room for two?", Sarah ignored Topper as she looked up to where Love was sat atop a box.

"For you, always", Love laughed as she scooter over to the edge of the box to make room for her friend.

"What are you doing?", Topper continued to fawn over her as he watched Sarah start to climb up onto the box next to Love who he also hadn't seen climb up.

"Relax, Big Bro, let her live a little", Love laughed at her brothers over worrying as she sat atop the box next to Sarah, she was unfortunately abandoned with the couple for the night, all their other friends having had other plans.

"Both of you get down from there before one of you get hurt", Topper pleaded frustratedly as he ran a hand down his face in stress, actually feeling as if he was dealing with two children.

"Fine, fine", Sarah caved in to his plead as she let him help her down from the top of the post box.

"Party pooper", Love huffed as she followed after Sarah and waited for her brother to also help her down from the post box as he did with Sarah.

"What not going to help me down as well?", she asked her brother with a raise of her brow, holding her arms out for help.

"Just get down", Topper sighed as he reached his arms up to help Love down from the box, looking behind him to make sure Sarah hadn't strayed away as he set Love down onto the ground.

It was getting late as the sun set over the boneyard, for some the party was over as they went home and for the rest the party had only just started.

Love was one of the tired ones who just wanted the party to end unlike Topper and Sarah. "Can we go now?", Love groaned to the couple, exhausted of being around a bunch of stupid drunk people.

"Yeah!", Sarah mumbled in agreement starting to feel tired herself.

"Alright, let's get you two home", Topper then agreed as he looked at the two tired girls, him being actually surprised that Sarah was also tired, her usually being the last to leave a party.

At his words Topper got ahold of both girls who looked as if they could collapse with exhaustion at any second as he began to lead them out of the boneyard.

"Hey, Sarah!", one of the Pogues, JJ Maybank cut in front of the trio, blocking them from leaving the boneyard. "Sarah, can I intrest you in a tasty Milwaukee beverage?"

"No, thanks", Sarah turned him down bluntly, the trio trying to continue on their way out of the boneyard as they attempted to move around him.

"Lovely Love, how about you?", JJ now asked as he turned to look down at Love, blocking the trio from leaving once more as he practically shoved the drink into her face.

"I'm fine", she told him, leaning back slightly to distance herself from him and the drink he was sloshing around.

"Oh, come on", JJ groaned out disappointed at both girls turning down his offer as he began to get a bit sour. "Is it not fancy enough for either of you?", he huffed out through a laugh bitterly.

"No, we were just leaving",  Sarah sighed frustratedly as the three tried to walk around JJ once more only to be blocked again.

"Hey, you know what? I'll take it", Topper cut into the conversation, trying to stop JJ from pestering the girls. "I'll- Thank you, man, I appreciate it", he continued as he held his hand out for the drink in JJs hand.
