Baby Blue // Outer Banks

dynamic duo

Sitting in the van on the side of the road in front of Kiara's car, John B explains the plan. "Kie and Blue are going to distract the security guard with a flat tire and us three are going to sneak in and get the drone." He says, everyone nods. "How come we always get left out of the action?" Blue complains getting out of the van with Kiara. "Because you're a little delicate flower, babe." JJ winks. "Or because everyone knows we're a dynamic duo." Kiara smiles at Blue.

Blue and Kiara get into her car and drive up to the junk yard. "What was that about?" Kiara questions, Blue gives her a confused expression. "Y'know the 'you're a little delicate flower'. That's not cocky player JJ, that's a i love you JJ." Kiara giggles, Blue's face goes beet red. "Oh, I don't know." She shrugs looking away. "Oh my god, you guys didn't, we're talking about this later." Kiara says getting out of her car as does Blue. Blue thought they could at least hide their so called relationship for more than a day, but Kiara is just too observant.

"Hello? Excuse me?" Kiara shouts waving at the security guard Blue follows next to her. The two stand outside the gate as a man comes out in a black shirt. "Hi, we were wondering if maybe you could help us out?" Kiara asks, the security guard nods and says yes opening the gate. Blue smiles, the plan is all coming into place. "This is too easy." Blue says quietly to Kiara which the two smile at each other. The security guard come out carrying an air pump. "Yeah, it's just this back one here. It must've been a slow leak or something." Kiara says pointing to the tire. Blue watches as the three boys run in through the closing gate, Pope almost not making it. As the security guard is almost done with the first tire, that took faster than expected. Kiara nods to the other side of the boat. Blue understanding what's she means goes over to the other side to start letting out air. A dog starts barking loudly, Shit we didn't think of possible variables, Blue thinks as she continues letting the air out slowly. "Do you hear that?" He asks, "No." Kiara replies. "Teabow's got something." The man states. "It must be a raccoon or something." Kiara replies unconvincingly. "Yeah. Hey, where did your friend go?" He asks. Blue let's out deep breath slowly, trying to stay calm. He walks around the boat and sees her letting out air. "What are you doing?" He asks, then the dog barking gets louder. "Shit." She mutters, as he runs back into the gates. "Fuck, Blue get in." Kiara says getting into the vehicle. "God, Pope was right, why can't we ever do anything legal." Blue sighs.

The two girls drive back to Kiara's families restaurant, The Wreck, where they planned to meet if anything went wrong. "So, you and JJ?" Kiara wiggles her eyebrows at Blue, who laughs nervously and blushes. "Well, okay fine, yes, but you can't tell anyone. You know because of the no pogue-on-pogue macking thing." Blue says very fast, which she does when she's nervous. "Don't worry, I don't think John B or Pope caught on. Neither are the brightest with that sort of thing." Kiara laughs, which Blue lets a sigh of relief to. "Besides, I think they'd be cool with it. We're family, we tell each other everything. And if we're being honest, John B kissed me, but—" "No way, he's the one that made the stupid rule too. What a hypocrite." Blue laughs. The two get out of the car and walk up to the door. "I told him we're just friends, because I always thought you two had something going on." Kiara shrugs as she opens the door. Blue is shocked by that, her and John B have never been anything, but friends. Their relationship has never been like hers and JJ's, John B and Blue have always been like brother and sister.

"Hey dad." Kiara asks walking up to the counter. "Hi girls." He smiles and the boys walk in not too long after. JJ wraps his arm around Blue as they walk to a table, Kiara asks her dad for food for them. Kiara and her dad look over at the group and they wave. "Sit down." Kiara smiles. "Guys, I totally fooled the guy. Just started crying and told him my dad made me go there and totally bullshited it, like I should be an actor." JJ brags shoving fries in his mouth, the crew laughs at him. Blue eats some chicken strips and her stomach growls. Her favourite food is definitely chicken strips, nothing compares to a good strip. As they all eat, laugh and dance, Blue feels pure bliss, this is what summer is supposed to be, hanging with friends and having a good time. John B and Kiara dance together, so JJ and Blue start dancing together too, leaving Pope at the counter eating alone. In the middle of them dancing Blue notices Pope looking sad, she goes to him and pulls his arm to come dance with the others. With that they all dance and eat, it's a party, but for five people. "Sorry to break up the fun, but im closing up and heading home." Mr. Carrera says cleaning up their dishes, Blue begins helping too. "Thank you, dear, but it's getting late why don't you guys head home?" He suggests, Blue smiles at him. "Thank you for letting us eat." She smiles at him and hands him 40 dollars of the money her mom left. "Don't worry about it." Mr. Carrera shakes his head. "My moms gone for a couple days and left money to eat out. I probably would have come here anyways." Blue insists giving him the money. He smiles and tells them to have a goodnight as they walk out the door, except Kiara.

Breathing in the smell of campfire, Blue smiles looking around at her friends being goofs. John B terribly attempting to play Kiara's ukulele as JJ and Pope try and sing very out of pitch. "Blue, come on sing with us." Pope pleads his hands in a praying position. Blue scrunches her face and shakes her head. "Come on, Ive heard you in the shower. You're good." JJ encourages. "Alright, alright, John B take us away!" She grins and John B starts playing the ukulele again. "Somewhere over the rainbow
way up high, and the dreams that you dream of once in a lullaby." The all sing in not so perfect harmony, but they have fun and that's all that matters. Blue stops singing and the boys start telling stories, she gets comfortable in her chair and slowly drifts to sleep. "God, I swear she can fall asleep anywhere. Like on the side of the road in a ditch? She's out like a light." JJ chuckles looking over at the sleeping girl. "Here, i'll take her in. Be back in a sec." He says picking her up, her arms fall relaxed. JJ carefully sets her down on the bed and kisses her on the forehead. "Sweet dreams, baby Blue." He whispers.
