The group of Pogues were packed into the Mystery Machine, tension filling the silent air of the van.
"Guys, I can feel the bad vibes," Devyn whispered as John B pulled up to a place the locals called the Hawk's Nest. "I might have some sage in my bag, we could do a cleansing before we go-"
"Shut up," Pope rolled his eyes as John B parked, not hesitating to throw open the side door. "Hit it, boys! We're goin'. Recon mission."
Just as Pope and JJ began to climb out of the van, John B spoke up.
"Yo, uh...so, uh, I think I'm gonna do this one by myself..." He looked at Kiara, whose scowl was quite literally etched into her face. "...tonight
"How very convenient of you," Devyn chuckled dryly, flinching slightly at the sound of rolling thunder.
"Really?" JJ questioned from beside her. The Pogues did everything together so John B's solo mission was completely out of character.
"What?" John B asked. "I just don't wanna spook Sarah with the peanut gallery."
"I just don't understand why we're involving her at all," Kiara spoke up immediately, shooting John B a pointed look. Devyn couldn't blame her for being mad. Hell, she was mad for her.
"Kie, we're not involving her, okay?" John B groaned. "It's—it's just, uh, like a—a business meeting...thing."
JJ pretended to blow the blunt he was rolling at his words, causing Pope and Devyn to burst into a fit of giggles.
"Look, once we get what we need, we cut her loose, all right?" John B said. "Plus, we need the map."
"Promise me nothing's happening between you two," Kiara told him seriously.
"Nothing's happening, Kie," John B told her dismissively.
"I'm being serious," she emphasized harshly.
"Okay!" John B exclaimed defensively.
"This isn't about you, and this isn't about us. This is about her," Kie tried to explain her point of view. "Dude, she's gonna get inside your head. Just promise me nothing's happening between you guys."
"I promise," John B told her unconvincingly, Devyn knowing he was lying right away.
"That was really believable," JJ scoffed.
"A hundred percent believable," Pope chimed in.
"Suuuper convincing, big guy," Devyn drawled as she rolled her eyes.
"Anyways, um...I'm gonna take care of business," John B stated.
"You're gonna take care of that business," JJ egged him on.
