[OUTER BANKS]
"You sit here, and pretend like you got it all figured out. Like you have us figured out. Let me tell you something, you don't know the first thing about The Cut. And you damn sure don't know the first thing about me. You boast ab...

THE SUN WAS HOT. And living near the banks of the ocean, made it so much more humid than any regular place when it was summer.
She wasn't complaining, though. This is exactly where she wanted to be. Summertime, in a boat, with her closest friends. Her friends being the Kings and Queens of all those on Pogue turf. At least that was how Synley thought of her friends as. They were the five who wore the Pogue title the proudest. They may have been given a crappy home life, torn up shoes, and a trash reputation; but they were also given passion and pride, and no body was gonna take that away from them. Especially the Kooks.
"Slow down on the beer boys, Synley and I have only had one." Kie laughed, snatching back one of the beers JJ was holding. Why he needed two at one time, Synley would never know.
Kie was Synley's girl best friend. Although it confused her as to why the curly haired beaut hung with them, she loved her nonetheless. Kiara was a Kook by fault, but Pogue by heart.
"Not my problem you two have been sipping like little girls." JJ, tugged Kie for the beer, and Synley moved her legs off of the girl's lap, getting out of the crossfire.
"As if being called a girl is an insult!" Kie stood up.
Synley laughed as the two hashed it out, ending up with Kie winning, of course, and JJ soaked in Budlight.
"Oh, it is on!" JJ warned, splashing Kiara back.
JJ was the comedic relief of the group. He was reckless and goofy, and a bit dumb sometimes. But he has a heart bigger than anyone here.
"Can you two cut it out?! I'm trying to drive here!" Pope was the oddball of the group. He had a logical approach to everything. And he was fascinated with facts no body else cared about. It was what he was loved for, though.
John B started laughing, taking a sip of his own beer, just glad the two in question weren't coming after his own beverage.
John B was the glue. He was the reason the Pogues were all friends in the first place. Without him, Synley would have never met the rest of the group.
"You owe me a beer." JJ smiled, pointing his finger at Kie. The girl in question cocked her eyebrow up, her stature full of attitude, "I think it's you that owes me a beer, you hog!"
Synley tugged at her jean shorts before standing up. She gave the boy an appointed look," JJ, Kie bought the beers. Leave her alone."
Synley liked to think of herself as the mediator of the group. No exciting role except for trying to keep everyone sane when things got patchy. That didn't mean she was miss perfect, though. She had her fair share of arguments and petty fights with the crew.
"Or what, princess?" JJ taunted Synley, and the green-eyed girl smirked. She grabbed JJ's beer from his hand before he could even blink.
"Hey!" JJ reaches for his beer, but he was blocked every time. Synley kept direct eye contact with him; the devil in her eyes as she slowly tipped what was left of JJ's beer into the marsh.
"Oh, you little..." JJ gritted his teeth in a playing matter and lunged towards Synley. The girl screamed out a laugh as he threw her over his shoulder. Pope made a comment about not rocking the boat too much while JB and Kie chorused in laughter.
"Eye for an eye, princess." he announced before dropping the blond over the boat. Pope brought The HMS Pogue to a stop.
A cold rush of water engulfed Synley, and she quickly flailed her way back to the surface. "You asshole! That is not eye for an eye! That's leg for an ear at best!" the soaked girl gasped out, coughing a bit, struggling to get the saltiness of the ocean off her tongue.
JJ doubled over laughing, clutching at his abdomen as Synley simply glared at him. Her clothes as well as her hair was drenched. And she was sure the little bit of makeup she had on was melted across her face. She angrily wiped underneath her eyes, hoping that whatever mascara that lied there would come off.
"Help me out, Jackass." she huffed. JJ tried his hardest to calm down from his laughing fit, still chuckling to himself as he held his hand out.
You idiot, Synley deviously thought to herself as she grabbed his hand. With one hard yank, the blond boy was in the water with her.
"Now, it's eye for an eye." She flipped the blue-eyed-wonder off, before climbing up back onto the boat with John B's help.
JJ laughed, heaving himself back onto the small motorboat, "Well played princess, well played."

hi! so I really wanted the first few chapters to dip you into the vibe and who the characters are. As I writer I have to assume you've never watched the show (even tho hopefully at this point you have) so I still have to have the duty of introducing the characters well. And I don't wanna do that by just jumping into the timeline. Plz drop comments and votes and the next chapter will be up soon!
