[ KOOK'S BET ]

"Sarah I hate this, I feel bad" I mumbled as I searched for a bikini in my dresser. "Don't, if nothing happens then you're off the hook" she shrugged, I had a beach "date" with JJ, well I wouldn't call it a date, he just asked to meet up at the beach later today.

And well...it was later today. The guilt slowly starting to bubble in me.

-

I slipped on the animal print bikini, throwing a beer tshirt over it and some shorts. "Have fun, love bird" Rafe called out after me, I glared at him closing the front door.

I played some music to calm my nerves, hoping I don't blow my cover or that his friends were there to notice who I was. A kook.

-

"Hey" I smiled, setting my bag down as I stood across from the blonde boy. "You ever surfed?" he asked, ruffling his hair making me lose focus for a second. "Not really, water doesn't really help the uncoordinated" I laughed, he nodded his head, a faint smile making his dimple pop out.

"It's cool, I'll teach you" he said, wiping some bar across his board.

I discarded my clothes and tied my hair up into a bun. My head lifting up, accidentally making eye contact with him. He looked away as I felt a blush creep up onto my cheeks, Stop it Lev! not the intention here!

-

He laughed as I tried to stand up, "you look like bambi on ice" he laughed as I held his hands for support, "If you're gonna make fun of me, I don't wanna do this" I pouted, "okay okay, here" He grabbed my waist adjusting me better, and straightening my back out.

Thank god for getting sun burnt easily because the blush on my face was probably ridiculous right now.

-

"Oh my god! yes!" I shouted as I rode a small wave, he laughed watching me stumbled into the water. I didn't bother getting up, I learned how to sorta surf. "See told ya you could do it" he held a hand out and pulled me up to him. I blushed, turning my head away and letting his hand go.

-

I had brought some snacks so now we sat under an umbrella talking and eating. "you never answered my question.." he spoke, I furrowed my brows, he smiled "you from Kildare or on vacation?" Fucking shit.
"From here, uhm..I live around figure eight" I spoke, and he eyed me slowly, "ohh.." he said, I panicked, "I know what you're thinking but I don't really have a problem with the kook or pogue thing, were all human. It's a dumb rule" I said.

I saw him relax some at my words but I wouldn't blame him if he was slightly still on edge. I just had to earn his trust and most likely his friends trust as well. This should be interesting.

-

"You look great by the way" he said, as we washed off under the shower, getting the salt water off our skin and hair. "Thank you" I said, knowing my cheeks had tinted for the hundredth time today.

He had walked me to where my car was parked, I had offered him a ride but he declined. "JJ" I said, rolling my window down, "I had fun, thank you for the surf lesson" I teased, making him smile and reply with "anytime, for you."

JJ just hits the feels and it's ughh. 🥴
