You know the story, five kids on a treasure hunt. Three pogues, two kooks. But what if there were a third girl? That's me, Alice or Allie to my friends, a kook working at The Wreck with Kie and friends with the Pogue boys. It's the story you've heard before, but... different.

Also this book starts off very similar to the show, and follows the same plot points but I promise there are twists and alterations to the storyline. PLEASEEE give it a chance.

Thanks,

We were hanging out at the new house being built, John B was on the roof dangling one foot over the edge with his arms stretched out to the side, holding one of JJ's dad's beers in his hands. 
"That's what? A three story fall to the deck?" Pope asked from the deck, turning the rest of our attention up to John B. "I give you a one-in-three chance of survival."
"Dork." I chuckled in a whisper to JJ, who was sitting next to me on the deck of the next floor up, him laughing back at me.
"Hmm." John B hummed in thought, licking his finger and holding it up in the air. "Should I do it?"
"Yeah you should jump." Pope replied, "I'll shoot you on the way down."
"Yeah do it." I laughed, turning John B's attention from Pope to me for a split second.
"You going to shoot me?" John B replied sarcastically, holding up a finger gun, pretending to shoot Pope.

"They're going to have Japanese toilets with towel warmers." Kie announced as she exited the house.
"Here we go." JJ whispered to me, rolling his eyes to make me laugh.
"Of course they are, why wouldn't they?" John B replied.
"This used to be a turtle habitat, but who cares about the turtles, I guess." She replied shaking her head.
"I can't have cold towels." JJ shot out sarcastically, only for Kie to ignore him as she looked up at John B.
"Could you maybe not kill yourself." She insisted in a flirty tone before she bit her lip.
"Could you maybe not kill yourself." I mimicked in a whisper, JJ chuckling back at me.
"Yeah don't spill that beer!" He yelled out to John B, "I'm not giving you another one." A strong gust of wind pushed from the ocean, making John B stumble, dropping his beer onto the deck. "Of course you would, right as I said that. A+."
"Nooooo." John B groaned, making me laugh as we heard a car pull up, Pope walking over to check it out.
"Hey, uh, securities here. Let's wrap it up." Pope informed in a worried tone.
"Alright, boy's have come here early today." John B joked as he started to climb off the roof.
"Let's roll." JJ joked as he stood up, turning to me and grabbing my hands to help me stand up before we started running down the stairs. "Gary good to see you man!" JJ yelled out to the security man and I laughed back at him.
"Yeah you're just asking for it." I laughed back as we ran through the construction zone.

As we reached the bottom of the stairs, security had just entered the house so we continued running out the other side. I glanced over my shoulder to see JJ fall to the ground as he was stopped by the security man, only for him to push off in the other direction.
"Not much of a hugger, man." JJ joked and I rolled my eyes.
"JJ hurry up!" I yelled back, continuing to run.
"Go Pope, com'on Allie!" He yelled as we reached the fence, he gave me a boost to get over before climbing over himself, us continuing to run towards the van, the three of us jumping in the back while Kie and John B sat in the front, John B instantly starting to drive off. I started to close the door but JJ stopped me.
"Garry gunning for a race!" Pope laughed as JJ climbed past me, holding a beer in his hand as he leaned out the side of the van.
"Com'on Garry!" JJ yelled back, laughing as he did so, "Hey slow down, slow down."
"Stop guys, you're going to give him a heart attack." I laughed, catching JJ's eye as he glanced over his shoulder at me.
"Com'on, you're so close." JJ continued to taunt him, before throwing the beer towards him, "There you are! They don't pay you enough bro!"
"JJ, stop." I laughed, grabbing the back of his shirt to pull him back.
"Oh com'on that sort of initiative is just begging to be punished." He laughed, keeping eye contact with me as he bit his lip softly, laughing as he sat back down. John B speeding up to get back to the OBX. 

He drove for about ten minutes, before reaching Figure 8, dropping me off at my house.
"Bye Kooky." JJ smirked as I stood up, rolling my eyes back at him.
"Hey there's a party at the chateau tonight, right?" I checked as I climbed out and John B nodded.
"Yeah you coming?" He asked, I noticed JJ move forward in his seat.
"Of course. See you then."
