Unlikely Group

Party

Outer Banks has partys going all the time. Today was no different. I told my brother I wanted to go to the party so he has me delivering stuff for him. I walked up to a guy I recognised from the photo my brother showed me.

"Rafe you got the cash?" I say, letting him have a peek at the stuff I have.

"Dang, whats a pretty girl like you doing delivering?" he says.

"Im just her for the money stop wasting my time."

"Dang ok girl wanna hangout later i'll make it worth your time."

"Go whoow a girl that will fall for it." I take the money and give him the stuff.

I forgot to mention I'm pretty new to the outer banks. I moved her to get away from my mom. I stay with my brother.

I get a beer and sit down on a log. I drink it and watch the idiot teens around me.

"I haven't seen you around." Some guy says sitting next to me.

"If your trying to get in my pants it wont work." I tell him but shockingly he stays.

"I'm not trying to. I'm John B by the way."

"Destany," That isnt my real name but now that im away from my mother I want to be a different person, a new person.

"Kook?"

"What?"

"Are you a kook? You know, rich."

"No i'm far from that."

"Oh welcome Pouge."

We talk for awhile and drink. He is really chill. Then he went to talk to others. Im sipping on my 4th drink. I feel a bit tipsy. Suddenly shouts are heard. I walk over and there is a croud around. Topper is kicked John B in the water. They fight. I stand at the side watching. This brings back to many memories. I can't watch. I walk away but don't get far before I hear people yelling at him to stop and he is going to drown him. Dang it of course this happens I gotta go help my first friend. I run back and pass the people I run to Topper and jump on him. I put him in a choke hold and jank back cousin us to fall on our back and him to let go of John B. His friends run to him and help him up. I had the surprise going for me but not any more. I rap my legs so he can't get up. He struggles against me trying to get out. He wildly hits with his arms. He hits me a little but not to much.

"OK ok." He says and I let go of him. He stands up after catching his breath. "What will your brother think?" He walks away leaving me sitting there in the water afraid. My brother will not be happy.

I slowly stand up and walk away from the water. Those words shook me up. Someone starts yelling then touches my shoulder. I flinch and look at them.

"Hey wait," He says. "Thank you for saving my friend-"

"I have to go." I cut him off and start walking again, drowning the talking out. I have to get home. Hopefully I can tell him before Topper does. I start walking home. I know I can't drive so I leave my dirtbike in a safe spot.
