My name is Kylie Thornton and I am Topper's twin sister. When we were younger we were so close, but as we have grown up he has become a lot like most of the Kooks in our town and I just don't want to be thought of as one of them. Being a Kook sure does have its perks, but sometimes I just want to have a good time and not worried about meeting everyone's expectations of me. Being a kook comes with a lot of eyes on you, especially when your parents are such known people on the island. 

Kylie's POV: 

I wake up and the sun is just now rising, so I jump out of bed, throw on some running clothes and go for my morning run. I love running first thing in the morning because it is just so peaceful and I can see all of the animals getting up and being completely comfortable without all of the people around. I stop at one of the local beaches and decide to run near the water because the sound of the waves on the sand soothes me and makes my runs even more enjoyable. I stop running because farther out into the water I see a group of dolphins and I just love watching and admiring their beauty and grace. I then run into town to get coffee and when I reach the coffee shop I texted Sarah to see if she wanted to go to the beach today. 

Sarah is my best friend, but she is also dating my brother at the moment so that has complicated our friendship just a little. They have been having some problems recently, but she won't bring them up to me even though I don't care what her and my brother do as long as they are both happy. I honestly wouldn't ,ind if they broke up, but that's just my opinion. 

Kylie: hey boo, wanna go to the beach later? I'll bring the drinks if you bring the snacks?

Sarah: of course!! Pick me up at 11?

Kylie: kk, see you then:)

I then slipped my phone into my pocket and walked into the coffee shop to get my coffee. As I am waiting in line I hear a group of people come in and as I turn around I see that its them, the Pogues. Most Kooks hate the Pogues and the feelings are mutual for the Pogues, but I am honestly intrigued by the Pogues. They just don't care what anyone says and they do whatever they want. I wish I could act this way or even feel this way, but being a Kook I am not allowed to do this. 

"Look who it is," says Kiara who is the only girl of their friend group. She goes to the "Kook Academy" as she calls it, which is where I go to school along with a lot of other Kooks, but she still hangs out with the Pogues because she thinks she's too good for us. She used to hang out with Sarah and I, but she and Sarah got into an argument and when it comes to who's side I pick, it is always Sarah. 

"I'm sorry am I bothering you?" I ask her and she looks away from me as if I am the most disgusting thing she has ever seen. 

"No, I just didn't know a Kook princess like yourself could stoop so low as to come to a coffee shop. Don't you have a butler or chef to make you a latte at home?" she says with a smirk on her face.

"I do actually, but I was on a run and figured I would support this amazing coffee shop." I say as I look to the rest of the group. John B and Pope were just staring at me, but JJ was smiling at me. I have always thought JJ was cute, but my brother would kill me if he even knew I thought he was cute, let alone if I talked to him. I think he noticed me staring so he winked and then looked away. I blushed and winked back, but I don't want things to be too obvious so I look back up the counter. 

At this time my order was ready, and as I was walking out my brother and Rafe walked in to the coffee shop, and I was very surprised because usually my brother is never up this early.

"Kylie what are you going here?" Topper asked me as I walked in. 

"Getting coffee is that okay dad?" I said with an attitude because he always thinks he can boss me around, which is so annoying.
