IT COMES AND GOES IN WAVES

(LIGHTHOUSE, BAIL AND GRAVE)

"In the dark, and I feel it's warmth"

NO ONE'S POV-

The 7 were all in their mini van when John B said, "I mean it's obviously right? A family heirloom. What a better place to hide a message. He had to know it was gonna get back to me, right?" "Yeah. It is possible." Kie said from the passenger seat, "It could also be possible that you're concocting wild theories....." MJ said climbing in from the boot, falling right into the middle, "Yeah you know to deal with your sad feels." Pope said, "Pope?" John B warned him. "Bro, you know how I process my sad feels. Dank nugs and the stickiest of ickies, that how I do it." JJ shrugged. "I'm not concocting okay. My dad is trying to give me a message." John B told them. "If it helps you believe John B." Kie said softly, "Look, I don't need a therapy session okay? I'm not tripping out." "It's okay to trip, bro but—" John B cut JJ off. "Look my dad is missing okay? Missing. You don't know what it's like to have the person closest to you vanish and then have no idea what happened. Just wake up every morning wondering." John B said, "It's been almost a year." SJ told him still sitting in the boot. "Hey, he could have been kidnapped. That is definitely a possibility." JJ suggested, "Yeah, could be in a Soviet sub getting interrogated by the KGB somewhere." Pope agreed, "Absolutely. Uh....or Atlantis." "JJ. Look what do you think the message is?" SJ asked. "Redfield. Redfield light house. That is my dad's favourite place." John B stopped the car and everyone got out. "Right here's what is going to happen. You're gonna post up and look out for bogeys. Okay?" John B pointed to JJ and MJ, "Wait... why us?" JJ asked, "Because you aren't coming." "Why?" "There are independent and dependant variables. You 2 are independent. We don't know what you may do." Pope was saying, "Shut up. Pope. Just Shut up! Shut up!" JJ shouted at him. "Listen to me for a second." "Pope and Milly stay with these two. Kie be the get away driver. If we get split up, meet at JJ's house." John B said, "Great." SJ said and the 2 walked off, "I'm not a fucking independent variable." MJ pushed JJ a bit, "Oh you wanna fight?" JJ joked and the 2 began to play fight, Kie was in the car and Pope went to talk to Milly about when he called her 'babe' "Okay so um. I'm sorry for calling you that back there by the way. It slipped out." He apologised. "It's okay. I-I-I kind of liked it." "You did?" "Yeah." "So, does that mean we are?" "Do you want to?" "Of course, I do. Milly will you be my girlfriend?" Pope asked looking down, "Yes. 1000% yes." "The not even possible in mathematical terms—" "Just shut up and kiss me." And that's what he did. The 2 were kissing until they heard, "ewwww!" pulling away the looked over to see JJ and MJ in a paused fighting position,

"Look away then!" Milly yelled and then JJ flipped her over, so she was on the floor.

Inside the lighthouse the 2 were walking up the long staircase, SJ walking first, she was looking around and her foot missed the step making her fall back, she closed her eyes and waited for the pain to strike through her body, it never came. Opening her eyes, she saw John B in front of her face, looking down his hands were both on her waist, "You okay?" he asked, and she cleared her throat, "oh. Me? Yeah. Good. Thanks." She stood up, as John B moved his hand, his hand brushed SJ's, the blush on her face increasing even more. After reaching the top, they had found the man who told them all about the Royal Merchant, where everyone thinks it was lost and but then he told where he thought it was lost. Then John B decide to get the compass out, the keeper's face dropped, and he walked quickly up the top and he faced them. "Wanda, I got 2 kids on drugs up here at the light house. Call the police." The name said into his radio, "No!" John B smashed the man's hand into the window, "What are you doing!" SJ asked, "It was accident." He replied. "John B we have to go!" the 2 ran down to the bottom of the light house.
