four: once a kook, always a kook

"Got a boy back home in Michigan
And he tastes like Jack when I'm kissing him
So I told him that I never really liked his friends
Now he's gone and he's callin' me a bitch again"

*chapter four: once a kook, always a look*

:::

THE GROUP GOT BACK AT THE COAST GUARD, but now instead of a bunch of people getting heated about the storm destroying things and dog diabetes, there were a bunch of cops, paramedics, people being interviewed and some people just watching,

"Who's that?" John B was the first to ask, his friends still looking at the scene in front of them.

"It's Scooter Grubbs" a blonde girl said from behind them "He was out during the storm, check out this pic I got" she showed them her phone with a pic of a pale and lifeless body in it.

"I'm very apprehensive, thank you" Blake put a hand on the phone and shoved it to the side

"Dead body" the girl said making Blake look at her weirdly

"What kind of boat did he have?" JJ asked

"Somehow, that dirtbag copped a brand-new Grady White" the girl responded "Everyone's out looking for it"

Blake looked at JJ and he was already looking at her with a playful smirk playing in his lips. She knew why he was looking at her like that, but it still made her knees a little weak.

"Nothin' good to see here, kids" Officer Shoupe told them"We gonna need you to getup and leave, this is a crime scene"

"What? But-

"Go home, Blake. This is not a tourist attraction" he told her

"So we didn't see anything, we don't know anything" Pope said as he sat down besides Kie "we need to have total and complete amnesia" he added.

The group was back at The Chateau, Blake laying in the hammock in between JJ's legs with her head on his stomach.

"Actually, Pope's right for once" JJ said tapping Blake's shoulders lightly with his fingers "see, I agree with you sometimes. deny, deny, deny" JJ added tapping Blake's shoulder at every deny.

"Guys, we can't keep that money" Kie pointed out

"Tell that to JJ" Blake said

"Okay girls, not all of us can afford unlimited data plans" JJ called out for both the girls as Blake glared at him, she hated when he gave the whole "you're a kook" speech.

"We have to pass that money to Lana Grubbs, otherwise its bad karma" Kie said ignoring JJ

"Bad karma is to be implicated in a felony, too. We gotta go dark" Pope spoke now

"If that means we get to keep the money, then I agree" JJ said

"God JJ" she rolled her eyes at the boy "As much as I love your bad ideas, this one is not it, I can't go to jail"

"We'd have the money to bail you out"

"That doesn't work like that, you don't get to keep the money" she argued

"I don't agree" John B spoke up

"See? He agrees with me" Blake turned to look at JJ

"That's just 'cause he is a pussy" JJ laughed at his friend
