Y/n pov
I sat there in between JJ and Kiara. Pope sat next to Kie. We were told to wait here while we waited for the cops to let us go. I was praying that John B and Sarah would get away. John B, my twin brother, had to leave with out me. I have no idea what I'm going to do next but I can't wait till I see him. I sobbed as I watched him leave on the phantom, a boat we stole from JJ dad.
The cops came back into our tent.
"Y/n, come with me." One of the cops said and pulled me up out of my seat.
"Wait where are you taking her?" JJ said getting defensive.
"JJ it's ok. I'll be fine." I said and turned back around to walk out of the tent.
"Can you please try to talk to your brother?" Shoupe asked me and told me to sit in a seat. In front of me was a table with a radio. Ward was across from me glaring me down. I picked up the radio hesitantly.
"John B?" I asked him over the radio. A cackle was heard and then my brothers voice.
"Y/n? Is that you?" He said in a panicked tone.
"Yes it's me. Listen JB they wanted me to talk to you. Try to get you to come back." I told him.
"Princess you know I can't do that." He said using the nickname my dad always called me. It brought tears to my eyes.
"I know. I know John B. Listen though I love you ok? And the pogues are ok too. You keep sailing alright?" I told him. I didn't want him to worry about us. I heard the officers groan because I wasn't trying to get him to turn around.
"I'm sorry y/n! I'm sorry I left you, I'm sorry for everything." He cried over the radio.
"I forgive you ok? I love you I'll see you soon right?" I asked him.
"I-i don't know. But I promise to see you ag-." But the radio cut off and I couldn't hear him anymore.
"John B! John B can you hear me?" I yelled and started to cry.
"Honey." I heard behind me. The cop who JB pushed with kiaras car door stood behind me resting her hands on my shoulders.
"We lost the signal." She said sadly.
"Take her back to her friends." Shoupe said and I was lead back to the other tent by an officer.
Right as I stepped in I got bombarded with questions from the group.
"What'd they want?"
"Is be ok?"
"They had me try to talk John B into coming back. I told him I love him and to keep sailing away." I said and looked down at the ground as tears slid down my face.
JJ pulled me into a hug.
"He said he was sorry." I mumbled out.
I sat down next to JJ and we waited. We waited for what felt like forever. Finally Shoupe came in.
"Keep looking! Their just kids!" He yelled and turned to face us.
"Did you find them?" We asked.
"No." He said and shook his head.
"So he got away?" Kiara asked hopeful.
"No. No we lost them." Shoupe sighed. They lost them? They could be dead? I drowned out JJ and Popes cries and yells and walked out of the tent. My brother was dead. That storm would've definitely killed him. I fell to my knees and sobbed into my hands. Soon I felt a pair of arms wrap around me. I looked up through a blurry vision to see Kie.
Pope and JJ behind her and joined the hug.
"I lost him!" I cried. "He's all I had left! I lost him." I sobbed.
"Kiara?" I heard another voice. I felt the hands let me go and I watched as kie, and popes parents hugged them. Hayward brought JJ into a hug also. They had their families. I had no one. Not anymore. I stood up, wiped my tears and found Shoupe.
"What do we do know?" I asked him as I got his attention.
He sighed. "Well keep looking for them. You try to contact your uncle maybe?" He told him and rested a hand on my shoulder. I nodded. I turned around and walked off.
"Y/n?" I heard pope yell to me over the rain. I stopped walking and turned to face them.
"Where are you going?" Kiara asked me.
"Home. I wanna be alone." I told them and turned back around to start walking back to the chateau.
On the walk back I thought if ward. He had taken us in and became our legal guardian. Well he was supposed to but I told John B to hold off on signing the papers. I never trusted ward and I had a bad feeling about him. Luckily those papers weren't signed so I didn't have to go back to the Cameron's house as ward being my legal guardian. I was on my own again.
I walked up the steps and stood in the door way. Looking around I saw clothes and beer bottles on the table. I walked right past them to John B room. I decided I wasn't gonna touch anything. A little part of me believed he was alive. I shut his door and locked it. No one was gonna touch anything in there.
I walked to my room and grabbed a picture of him. After we found out our dad was dead we built a little raft and put a candle and picture of our dad on it. I was gonna do the same thing for John B.

I sat on the dock and watched the candle light sway in the wind. I wore John B ring and his bandana was around my neck. I cried and cried for hours. I lost my dad, now my brother. I say out there all night. Watching the candle light slowly disappear out into the open water.
