Once we dive into part of her kook year all is revealed as to why shes so sensitive about the topic, JJ shows up in the middle of the night to apologise but will kie accept it or will it all end up in flames?!

Kie and Pope have been inseparable ever since they met in pre-school at 3 years old. They are best friends; you never see one without the other. They are 16 now and summer has just started. Kie wants to do more and have new experiences. She has a bit of a rebellious side but reigns it in since Pope is so responsible and level-headed. She feels like she can't fully be herself around him. And then she notices JJ. He has a bit of a chip on his shoulder due to him having to raise himself because all his dad is concerned about is his next drink. They come from different worlds but that does nothing to stop her ever-growing curiosity about him.

Everyone knew who she was, whether you were a pogue or kook you knew and heard everything about her. One thing however, not even her best friend, Sarah Cameron knew about, was that she was one of those girls. ~ short story!!

TW: mentions of: assault, abuse, rape, sex, violence, self harm ____________________________________ it's crazy how much one person can affect your life... you get so used to having them there that when something happens and they're suddenly not there, and there's a risk of them never being there again, everything breaks. you break. _________________ i put kiara and jj through so much pain in this book so i apologise in advance. but their love and comfort for each other is strong enough to get them through it. i also put sarah through quite a lot too but all the pogues have each other. they get each other through it all. _____________

jj and kiara hook up when they're both drunk, but they decided to never let it happen again and not tell their friends. what do they decide when kiara ends up pregnant? _________________ "so when are you gonna tell him?" sarah says. "tell him what?" i say. "that you love him"

Hey everyone, I published the book in 2021-2022, so it has been quite some time! I will occasionally update this book when I have the time and ideas. Essentially each chapter of this book is based of a new story/pov and are just imagine moments for JJ and Kiara. Hope you love it <3 (i do not own any of these characters they all belong to netflix.)
