"wake up." john b said throwing a pillow at jj and caroline.
"john b, i'm gonna need you to shut the fuck up please." caroline groaned back at the curly haired boy.

"jj get up! we have to go help my dad with delivery's." pope yelled at the blonde boy.
"ooo i want to come." caroline said holding onto the boys neck.
"pope?" he said turning back to the boy standing half in and half out of the door.
he hesitated at first and then said "i guess, but you have to actually help us."
"i will! I swear!" the girl said crossimg her heart

"we can take my car if you guys want, then we dont have to walk." she offered
"that would be great." pope said

JJ got into the drivers seat and pope called shotgun so he sat up front with jj, while caroline was stuck in the back.

they arrived at Heywards and jj parked the car.
"hey dad." pope said walking up to greet his father.

mr. Heyward had always liked caroline, he thought that she was sweet, smart, caring, and respectful. he hated jj. well, because he was jj. and jj got into trouble. what mr. Heyward didn't know was that jj had corrupted the little princess into getting into some trouble every now and then. caroline had always described it as, jj made her feel alive.

"looks like you brought some friends to help out huh?" he said arms crossed.
caroline smiled at the man and while getting onto the boat and said "yes sir."

mr. Heyward just laughed and said "how you doin' caroline?"
"i'm struggling keeping these boys in check, but i'm good." she smiled. "how are you?" she asked.
"well, i'm doing pretty well now that i saw you." he laughed.

while caroline was talking it up with popes father, the two boys were working away, trying to get the boat ready, getting groceries onto the boat, basically working their asses off. pope rolled his eyes at the sight of the girl. somehow, whenever there was work to be done, caroline always found a way out of it.

"caroline... are you gonna actually help, or are you just gonna stand there and talk all damn day?" pope asked the girl.
"pope! you better check your damn attitude, talking to lady that way," he scoffed and shook his head. "just wait till i tell your mother how you've been talking to this lovely girl." mr. Heyward said.
"yea pope, treat me with some respect." she said sticking her tongue out at the boy while mr. Heyward couldn't see.
"are you kidding me?" pope said quietly looking at the sky.

"ok mr. Heyward, we better get going, i'll see you later ok? it was great talking to you!" caroline said.
"you too honey! you make sure those boys don't get into any trouble!" he called out.
"oh trust me, they won't!" she said.
when the teens were out of ear reach jj said "yea, we won't get in trouble, but you will." he teased.
caroline gasped. "i would never." she said acting innocent.
"oh bullshit!" pope laughed.

as jj drove up to the dock, pope said "ok caroline, since you were flirting with my father that whole time, i don't trust you to go with jj. so you have to come with me."
"dude are you serious? you think we are gonna have sex on some kooks porch?"
"uh, yea maybe. caroline let's go!" pope said grabbing groceries.

"oh and by the way, i wasn't flirting with your dad. that's disgusting." caroline said.
"oh sure."
"i was just being nice." she smiled.
"ok, whatev-" pope was cut off as he saw Topper and Rafe walking towards them.
"shit." caroline said quietly.
"it's fine. just keep walking."
