John B helped Cassie on to the Pogue and turned the keys in the ignition.
"I'm sorry."
"Don't be."
The three pulled up at Pope's place just as the girl had fallen asleep.
"Well, look who we have here."
"We have a safety meeting, attendance mandatory," John B laughed.
"I can't. My pops got me on lockdown."
"Come on man-"
"Your dad's a pussy, over."
Heyward emerged and pulled a face at JJ, "oh, I heard that you little bastard."
JJ smiled at the man.
"Say, when are you gonna let me talk to your friend- she seems nice but she's never spoken to me."
Pope groaned.
"She's really shy dad, we've talked about it."
The only parent that Cassie had talked to was Big John, and that was only because when she was fifteen her parents kicked her out for a week.
"She can still say hi," Heyward grumbled, looking over at the sleeping girl.
"I've told you- she doesn't trust adults," Pope hissed.
John B saw the girl stir, and decided to change the subject.
"We need your son."
JJ caught on, "Yeah, and island rules- day after a hurricane is a free day."
Heyward and JJ talked a bit more before Pope made a run for it.
When Cassie started to wake up, Kie was on the boat too and the four were talking in hushed whispers.
"Did you tell her?"
"I tried but she just told me to stop messing her around."
"I told you-"
"Kie stop-"
"No I'm being serious, look at the people who she dates and how they treat her. Then look at her family and how they treat her. Notice how they treat her the same shitty way? There's like a scientific thing on it- search it up."
"Or maybe she's still hung up on Rafe or just doesn't like JJ back?"
"Can we not-"
Cassie groaned and sat up.
"Jesus Christ this is uncomfortable. Who let me fall asleep? Oh hi guys, when did you get here?"
She took JJ's cap off him, and placed it on her head so the sun was out of her eyes.
"What were we talking about?"
They all exchanged looks, causing the girl to feel sick: maybe they were talking about her.
"Hey Cass, watch this."
Multiple groans surrounded her as she giggled while JJ tried to get beer into his mouth.
"You're getting beer in my hair."
"Okay stop."
"Yeah you're done."
"You're completely missing-" Cassie stood up just as the boat hit something, and was thrown towards where the steering wheel was. The wind was knocked out of her, so she began to gasp for air, which got John Bs attention while the others helped JJ.
"Oh shit- do I need to do mouth to mouth?"
He looked down at her and she was still struggling to breath and wide eyed, so he pushed his lips to hers and started blowing.
"What the FUCK John B?"
JJ stood soaking wet, while watching his best friend on top of Cassie, doing something that looked like kissing.
"Are you actually fucking kidding me?"
Cassie sat up slightly dizzy, and very confused as to what was going on.
"Dude he got you-"
"Shut up Pope, Cassie couldn't breath so I tried to do mouth to mouth."
"You were being a little dramatic- I only got winded.
JJ was seething, smoke practically coming out of his ears.
"What are you even on about?"
"John B, I swear to god-"
"Guys, I think there's a boat down there."
"Shut up-"
"What?"
"No way-"
Pope looked around to be met with four faces of disbelief, "no, no, guys, I'm serious-"
"And I'm Cassie nice to meet you."
John B and Kie chuckled, Pope just pulled an exasperated expression, and JJ glared at John B.
"Listen to me- there's a boat down there."
Everyone slowly walked over, but soon noticed he was telling the truth and dived in.
Cassie stayed on the boat; the voice in her head told her she would get stuck and drown.
The four came out spluttering, being handed towels by the worried girl.
"Did you guys see that?"
Cassie didn't listen as she stared at the boat, it was identical to the one they had seen last night.
"Dude it's too deep-"
"Wait no, John B don't."
She grabbed his wrist and received a dirty look from JJ.
"Okay what is it with you? First you act all nice, then you try and screw with my head, and now your what, pissed at me? I've had enough."
She walked over to the end of the boat and rested her head on Pope's shoulder while John B and JJ hissed at each other under their breaths.
The brunette got hold of the anchor and and stood at the side of the boat.
"Diver down, fool."
"Diver down," John B looked like he was about to say something to Cassie but was cut off by JJ pushing him overboard.
"Yeah he is-"
The girl stood up and slapped him.
"Oh shi-"
"Damn."
"Wha-"
"What the actual fuck JJ?"
"Cass-"
"Why the fuck would you push him over?"
"I was just having a laugh-"
"Yeah one that could have caused him to hit his head and die or drown or really badly hurt himself and then it would be my fault-"
"What?"
Cassie was furious, JJ looked slightly scared.
"Or was it because your pissed at me and John B for a reason I have no clue about-"
"Cass, calm down-"
The girl was shaking with fury, a very reliable sign that one of her outburst were coming on
"Yeah, maybe you should tak-"
"Shut up, what have I done to you to make you treat me like shit?"
"You let John B kiss you." The boy said indignantly, his face bright red. Pope and Kie were helping John B out of the water and filling him in.
"Oh, I let him did I? Say someone rapes me, because I let them you get pissed-"
"THATS NOT THE SAME AND YOU KNOW IT-"
John B stepped between the trying to diffuse the fight, Cassie pushed him away, which was very unlike her.
"And so what if John B did kiss me, what place do you have telling me who I can kiss?"
"I like you." It was basically a whisper, but everyone heard.
"Oh damn."
"Shut up, shut up. Stop trying to mess with my head."
JJ groaned and cupped her face in his hands, before gently kissing her.
"Oh my god-"
"Idiot."
Cassie pulled away and dropped to the floor.
"What the fuck are you doing?"
JJ immediately regretted his decision.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry-"
He placed a hand on her shoulder, but she kicked him in the chest.
"Get off, get off me GET OFF ME GET OFF ME GETOFFMEGETOFFME-"
JJ pressed her wrists on the ground above her head, tears falling down his cheeks, trying to stop her from thrashing her body and hurting herself.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry- Cass please I'm sorry- I forgot it was one of those days- I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please-"
John B pulled the crying boy away from her as Kie and Pope tried desperately to calm her angry fit down.
