Baby Blue // Outer Banks

hot tub

After awhile alone Blue walks over to John B's to see what everyone is up to. She doesn't hear anyone talking or laughing. "JB!" She shouts opening the front door. Not a single person here either. Blue makes her way back to her house, not used to the feeling of being alone she calls her mom.

"Hello?" Her mother's voice warms her heart.
"Hi mom. How's everything?" She asks.
"Good. You're dad misses you so much, why don't you come stay here for a few days." Her mom says. "Really? That's sounds great." Blue smiles. "I hope you kids aren't causing any trouble." She chuckles. "Oh you know us mom, trouble finds us wherever we go." Blue laughs. "You been making sure the boys eat?" "Well actually John B moved into the Cameron's." Blue explains. "That's good. Alright sweetheart, I've got to go, but you call me tomorrow and we'll figure out when you can come." "Bye mom, I love you." "I love you too, darling."

The sound of loud music and water flowing catches her attention. "What the hell?" She mumbles looking out the window to see a hot tub with lights and decorations everywhere. Blue gets up and walks over seeing a bruise covered JJ. "Oh god, J." She whispers looking at the boy covered in bruises holding a bottle of champagne. Every time she sees him like this her heart breaks and this time he's finally broke. "Sweet isn't, baby?" He grins pulling her towards him by the waist. "Where did you get all this?" She questions looking at the lights, countless bottles of various alcohols and the hot tub. "Well, my lady if you had bothered to stay instead of leaving. You would know that I stole some dough. But i'll let the you leaving part slide, because you're so fucking sexy." JJ explains forcing his lips to Blues. She pushes him off her wanting more of an explanation.

"J, what happened to you? Did Barry come after you?" She questions him scanning the bruises and cuts on his body. "No actually. Paid my good old pops a visit and he repaid me in the only way he knows how." He says nonchalantly then proceeds to chug the rest of the champagne. Blue stands there with absolutely no idea what's going. "Don't worry about it baby. I'm good, so beyond good. I've got a sick hot tub and the sexiest lady around. Just enjoying life." He says as he stumbles into the hot tub. Blue stands there in complete shock.

"Are you gonna stand there or hop in?" JJ questions grabbing another bottle of champagne. Blue takes a deep breath before stripping down to her swimsuit. She slowly lowers into the scorching hot water, a hot tub in the outer banks summer weather isn't the nicest.

"Do the honours, baby?" JJ hands Blue the bottle of champagne. "What the hell?" She shrugs and gladly takes the bottle, she pops the cork and bubble spray everywhere. Blue takes the open bottle to her lips and starts chugging it. "Now that's what i'm talking about!" JJ cheers clapping his hands as he watches her drink. Blue stops drinking and hands the half full bottle to JJ to finish off. "what next? Tequila or vodka?"

The two sit and drink until the sun falls and the moon rises and stars light the sky along with the lights from the hot tub. This right here, is what Blue thought their summer would be. Having fun, getting drunk, not having a single worry. Just then having fun and being teenagers.

"I'm gonna go get some snacks, you stay right here." Blue instructs as she gets out of the water. "This is the only place i wanna be right now." JJ responds leaning back against a jet. Blue stumbles in the dark back to her unlit house. She opens every cupboard in the kitchen and finds nothing, forgetting that her mom isn't home to buy groceries. She finds an old box of crackers and a half eaten bag of chips. Both are more than likely stale.

Snacks in hand, Blue wanders back through the dark to join JJ in the hot tub again. Upon returning she sees JJ, Pope and Kiara all in the hot tub hugging. She immediately runs to them, knowing that JJ has finally broke. His tough guy act has finally fallen.

"JJ we're all here for you." Kiara says through tears, the four of them never breaking the hug. "Yeah man, we're your family." Pope adds. JJ nods his head acknowledging the reassurance. Finally after a few more minutes the four decide to head in for bed, all staying at Blues.

As soon as they enter the house JJ immediately goes to Blues room to pass out. "Pope, Kie y'all can stay in the living room." Blue says as she pulls out the pullout couch and throwing the extra pillows and blankets on it. "Thanks. Night guys." Kiara says as she yawns.

Blue walks into her room to see JJ starfished out on the bed leaving no room for her. She sighs, but quickly changes into some clean pyjamas, an old shirt and shorts. Blue tries to push the sleeping boy over to make room for her, but he doesn't budge. "JJ, move over." she grunts trying to push him. After a few failed attempts she gives up and turns around to sleep in her moms room. "Baby, stay." JJ whines and reaches out to grab her hand. "Move over then." She giggles. After making room, Blue lays next to JJ and he wraps his arms around her. Blues eyes are heavy and can barely be kept open, she gives in to the slumber and falls asleep.

"Blue?" JJ whispers almost inaudibly.

"Mhm." Blue nods, half asleep.

"I'm gonna marry you one day."

Okay! Short chapter. I really didn't have any ideas on what to write and had really bad writers block, but with season two just being released hopefully I'll get some inspiration to write more!

Once this story is finished, I want to make a new one for season two. Still following Blue and the pogues.
