The outer banks. A place where you are supposed to have fun all the time. allegedly. My dad got into some trouble where we used to live so he moved us all the way out here off the mainland. He wont tell me what happened as i "shouldnt know".  

"y/n we're here" my dad tells me.

"its about time." i mumble.

"what did you just say?" he questions

"nothing" i tell him as i hop out of the truck and onto a dirt road in front of which i think is our new house. you can tell its a little old since the light blue paint is chipping and the screen door is torn but nothing major. i close the door to the truck and look around and see a another house with a boat in the yard two houses down. i tuck my long wavy hair behind my ears as i reach in the back of the truck to get my bags to bring in the house as i hear a loud noise. i turn around and see a group of kids that look my age walking out of the house.

One girl, three guys. 

"y/n bring your shit inside already!" my dad yelled from inside the house.

i'm guessing he yelled pretty loud since those kids from two houses down all looked over at me. staring and talking.

"ok!" i yelled back "shit."

I brought my stuff inside the house and looked for an empty room to set it in. I chose one with a big window facing the ocean and as far away from my dads room as possible. Its close to the kitchen at least. The room is a pale yellow already filled with dark brown furniture im guessing from the previous owner. i grab my bag and pull out my moms old walkman and push in a cassette of Queen. 

i start putting clothes in the dresser and closet and i unpack my posters of different bands. My mom and i were obsessed with music so i guess that kinda stuck around. Alot of people in my life tell me i look just like her with the emerald green eyes, long wavy brown hair, and cheeks dusted with freckles. Im ripped away from my thoughts as my headphones are torn off my head.

"ow! what the hell?!" i yelp.

"Enough with this music bullshit some kids are out front asking to talk to you." my dad tells me as he walks out of the room and what i'm guessing is his. i quickly look at myself in the mirror. i'm wearing black shorts, a cropped bud light t shirt, a bunch of necklaces on with low top white converse.  

i walk towards the front door and walk out onto the porch.

"hey i'm Kiara, and we all noticed your new here and we thought maybe you could use some friends?" she warmly smiled at me. shes really pretty with her curly long hair tanned skin and perfect smile.

i smile back at her "um yeah sure. im y/n." 

"This is John B, Pope and JJ." she pointed at each of the boys.

"hey." i waved at them.

"wanna come to my house and hangout for a bit?" John B asked.

"umm" i looked in the house to see where my dad was and turned back to face the group "yeah let me just grab something ill be right back."

As i'm walking away i hear one of the boys saying something 

"JJ stop" Kiara tells him " You literally just found out her name."

"All i'm saying is that shes fucking pretty calm down." he laughs

"not with the way you were just looking at her" Pope laughs.

I smile to myself and grab my walkman and go back to the group. Now that i know that JJ thinks i'm pretty ill keep an eye on him. 

"ok i'm ready."

I look at John B and he leads the way to his house. I stay walking towards the back of the group and feel someone walking next to me.

"you okay?" JJ asks.

"yeah why wouldn't i be?" i look up at JJ. he smiles at me 

"well i don't know you looked kinda worried when John B asked if you wanted to come over."

" Just stuff with my dad is all" i tell him. I don't know why i tell him that but he seems...trustworthy enough.

"i know the feeling."

i look up at him and give him a slight smile and he gives one in return. His bright blue eyes focus on mine for what seems like hours but only seconds until i break it.

i tuck my hair behind my ears. " um what do you guys usually do for fun around here?"

"well that depends on whether you want to get arrested." he laughs and i laugh along with him. 

"nothing thats hasn't happened before." 

he gives me a surprised look. "see you're gonna fit right in with gang" and slings his arm around my neck as we laugh and head inside john Bs house.
