TWENTY:
gone with the wind.

KALI SAT ON the boat silently as they arrived to the château. every now and then she would include herself in the conversation but she couldn't help but think about what she was gonna tell the boys and lucy.

it was different talking to sarah and kie. they knew how complicated things were with rafe and kali was sure that the boys forgot all about them. it wasn't something she was proud to admit and that's what made her not want to tell them. she didn't want her best friends to look at her like some girl who got knocked up by rafe cameron and ruined her life.

she didn't want them to think "kali is so stupid for believing rafe's words and now look at her." it broke kali deep down and she knew it. it killed her everyday that she didn't tell them and she knew it had to be soon. she decided when the time was right she would tell them. kali never knew when the time would be right but she was telling them and it was going to be soon.

a voice pulled her out of her thoughts and it was only then that she realized that the had made it to the château "kal, you okay?" jj asks and kali nods with a smile "yea just thinking" she stood up and got off the boat with the help of pope. kali smile softly and sighed.

"you know, i gotta be honest, not exactly looking forward to a check-in at home. they're probably already planning our funeral" kie said and kali nodded in agreement "yea my parents are going to kill me." she admits and pope speaks up "i also predict unpleasantries at the heyward household after i left the truck in charleston." john b hums in agreement.

"no one knows we're here, right?" jj asks and the group looks to each other "and your three aren't going to get into any more trouble for showing up 12 hours later." he says and kali looks to pope and kie. "am i right, or am i right?" he asks and pope looks to him "i mean you're not wrong-" "so that means we have 12 hours to do whatever we want." he looks to the group with a smile "huh? a little pouge fellowship. how does that sound?" sarah shakes her head and kali chews on her lip thinking about his idea.

"let shit hit the fan tomorrow" john b agrees and sarah looks to them "the cops could be looking for us. it could be really stupid." she says and jj walks over to her "sarah cameron, you've heard of my philosophy, right?" "no" she says and the rest of the group shakes their heads at jj "stupid things have good outcomes all the time." he says and everyone mouths the words in agreement.

sarah chuckles and hops off the railing before walking with kali and kie "can we like shower first?" kali suggests and sarah hums in agreement "that sounds like heaven." she says and kali chuckles before walking into the château.

━━━

once the group is all clean and comfortable they go grab lucy and some beer before make their way back to the château and prepare for their mini pouge party. it gets late fast and drinks are emptied almost as soon as they are grabbed and the group has now migrated to the hot tub.

the girls had gotten in the hot tub and we're just chatting before the boys and their craziness joined them. beer is being thrown everywhere and laughs are being heard. pope is pretty tipsy and starts rapping and kali notices the way her sister looks at him and she smiled to herself.
