Here's the thing about the Outer Banks: there's two sides to this place. The Cut, and Figure Eight. Pogues versus Kooks. And trust me, the line between the two? It's about as deep as the ocean. Me? I'm Y/N Routledge. 17. John B's little sister. Which automatically makes me a Pogue. We don't have money, we don't have fancy boats or vacation houses, but we've got each other. And that's enough. Then there's Jackson Genrette. Jackson. A Kook. He's got the parents, the money, the privilege, everything handed to him since the start. Best friends with Rafe Cameron, which should tell you everything you need to know. Arrogant. Reckless. Infuriating. And if there's one person I swore I'd never get tangled up with, it's him. But the thing about the Outer Banks? Nothing ever goes the way you think it will. But that summer, the lines began to blur. And sometimes, the person you swear you hate most is the one you can't stay away from. **This story can also be found on my TikTok account as well with many others!!!!** TikTok: @obxstoriess_p4l

**Discontinued for now! Author will be on a mental health leave until further notice. Apologizes for any inconveniences.*** A story of forbidden love, a love that is forbidden by John B. Y/N Routledge - off limits to everyone, Princess of the cut, untouchable to all, especially other Pogues. No pogue on pogue macking, the biggest rule The Pogues followed. Will they break the rules? Will she catch feelings for JJ or has she already? Will the Princess of the cut finally have her prince? Will John B approve? Warning: Smut, abuse, drugs, alcohol

Every friend group has a self proclaimed know-it-all and the innocent friend. For the Pogues, that happens to be JJ Maybank and you. During the hottest summer on record, your group of friends want nothing more than to have a relaxing summer filled with drinks, boat rides, and new beginnings. Upon meeting a Touron and realizing you lack skills in the bedroom when he asks you out, you turn to JJ for help. This was originally posted on my Tumblr @ptersparkers, co-authored by @storiesbymads. I've gotten a lot of messages about plagiarism and thought I'd post it here. Happy reading!

Y/N is a pogue, and best friends with JJ, but she's had feelings for him for a while.
