Outer Banks Imagines

John B

Y/n pov
I sat there on the porch watching Sarah and John B flirt. I get they were a couple but no need to rub it in our faces. I despised Sarah because she had John B. I have loved him for years. We've been best friends since the first grade and you'd think at some point he would figure out I liked him, but no.
"Keep glaring at her she might leave." Kiara said. Kiara hated Sarah for reasons that I do not know of, but we both didnt like her so we always were together when Sarah was around.
"Maybe we could just leave her in the marsh on a boat." I said and gripped my seat as I watched them kiss.
"Throw the keys away." Kiara added on. Someone would say we were crazy for saying those things but really we just didn't like her and we're very high off weed.
I watched as John B smiled down at her and held her hand. That should be me. I've been there for him every single step of his life. When he broke his arm in the 3 grade I was the first to sign his cast. We were each other's first kisses in 5th grade. I stayed with him most nights but then when his dad went missing I stayed with him every night. Now that Sarah is in the picture though I don't stay over anymore.
Everyday my heart broke more and more as I watched them.

I looked down at Sarah and laughed at her joke.
We've been talking and joking with everyone for a while now. Although I kept looking over at y/n. Her blond hair flowed back in the wind tonight. JJ sweatshirt she was wearing was drowning her. That should be my sweatshirt not his, but I don't know why I'm having these thoughts. I looked at her again. She as gorgeous. Her eyes, her laughter just everything but I was with Sarah and I loved Sarah.
Sarah interrupted my thoughts. "Hey could we talk privately?" She asked me. Did I do something wrong? I started to get nervous. I wiped my palms on my shorts.
"Uh ya. We'll be right back." I told the group and stood up with Sarah as we walked inside to go to my room.
"What's wrong?" I asked her as I shut my door and sat next to her on my bed.
"You know you're in love with her right?" She asked me. What? What is she going on about.
"What?" I asked her confused. She let out a sigh.
"Your in love with y/n." She stated. Her voice was full of sadness.
Did I love y/n? Yes. Yes I did. The more I thought about it I realized I've loved her for years.
"How long?" Sarah asked me.
"How long have you loved her?" She clarified. I let out a deep sigh.
"Every since I met her in the first grade." I said and looked down at my bed.
"I figured John B. And that's why I've gotta break up with you. I love you JB. I really do but I know you love her more. That is perfectly ok." Sarah said and held my hand.
"I'm so sorry." I said sadly.
She shook her head. "Don't be. I want you to be happy and live a life you want. And that is clearly with y/n." She said. I gave her a weak nod. She stood up and walked to my door.
"See ya around John B." She said and walked out before I could say anything.
I guess I should tell y/n how I feel. I got up from my be quickly and ran out to the porch.
"Did Sarah leave?" I asked and looked around.
"Ya something about you two not happening anymore..?" Kiara asked me.
"Um ya were not together." I said. "Anymore." I added.
"What? Why?" JJ asked.
"Because I'm in love with someone else." I stated and looked at y/n. Her eyes got glossy like she was about to cry. Hopefully happy tears.
"And that person is...?" Pope trialed off.
"Y/n." I said firmly. "I'm in love with y/n." I said and looked at her. I watched as a smile took over her face. She jumped up and pulled me in for a kiss.
Just like our first kiss, I wanted more. I cupped her face and deepened the kiss. Cheers came from all of our friends as they watched us. I pulled away and took a breath. My smile never leaving our faces.
"I love you too John B." She said looking into my eyes.
