The Outer Banks is a place where storms never stay on the horizon for long. Maisen Jade Lewis has always felt them coming, whether it is weather patterns, secrets, the way danger hangs in the air before it finally crashes down. She grew up on the edge of the island's wealth, full born Kook as they say, caught between the gold-plated world of her father's estate and the saltwater freedom of the Pogues. For years, she's managed to ride both currents, until now. 

When Big John's tape resurfaces, the hunt for the Merchant gold isn't the only thing dragging the Pogues deeper into uncharted waters. Big John left a message not just for his son but for Maisen too. A cryptic warning about her father, Alexander Lewis, and truths that could tear open everything she thought she knew about him... and herself. 

Maisen isn't the type to let anyone fight her battles for her. Not even JJ Maybank, the reckless, sharp-tongued Pogue who somehow keeps finding his way past her defenses. Together, their story unfolds in the riptide-pulled between loyalty and lies, love and survival, treasure and betrayal. 

The deeper they dive, the more dangerous the water becomes. Because storms don't just break on the Outer Banks-they uncover everything buried beneath.

❝𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠❞ | JJ Maybank by tillymaiee

A JJ Maybank Fanfiction| In the Outer Banks, the Pogues live by one rule: nothing to lose, everything to gain. When Dove Dalles-artist, ex-competitive surfer, and JJ Maybank's longest-held secret-discovers an ancient letter buried in an abandoned house, the Pogues are thrust into a hunt for one of the most infamous treasures in history: Blackbeard's lost hoard. The discovery unravels secrets long hidden in the depths of the island and reveals a world of cryptic maps, sunken ships, and dangerous rivals who will stop at nothing to claim the fortune for themselves. As the group pieces together the clues, they find themselves facing challenges that test their courage, their loyalty, and their very survival. For Dove, the treasure represents more than adventure-it's a lifeline, a chance to break free from her fractured home and find the happiness she's always craved. But as the hunt unfolds, it forces her to confront long-hidden feelings for her best friend, JJ-whose reckless spirit masks feelings he's long buried. As the Pogues delve deeper into Blackbeard's shadowy legacy, they face rising tensions, life-threatening dangers, and truths that could either strengthen their unbreakable bond or tear them apart forever. Somewhere beneath the tides lies a secret worth dying for-but JJ and Dove will have to decide how much they're willing to sacrifice to claim it. I do not own Outerbanks, but this original story and Wren (Dove) Dalles, completely and utterly belongs to me. | Top Rankings. |#1 JJMaybank |#2 RafeCameron |#3 OBX |#1 Treasurehunt |#1 Hunt |#5 Treasure

"𝙷𝙴𝚁𝙴'𝚂 𝚃𝙾 𝙶𝙾𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝙵𝚄𝙻𝙻 𝙺𝙾𝙾𝙺" "Man, we really can't catch a break," JJ murmured, resting a hand on Tate's leg and blowing her smoke away from him. Tate laughed softly. "Yeah, ever since I started hanging out with you guys." "So this is your fault," he said with a half-smile. "This is why I don't slum it with Pogues." --- I DID discontinue this book at the end of s2 but i swear it's still worth reading for at least s1 i just got super bored and the plot got too stagnant xoxo ~Tate Johnson doesn't have a group of friends. She's not a Pogue, and she's definitely not a Kook. She's lived in the Outer Banks her entire life like this, but when she finds herself without a place to stay in the midst of hurricane Agatha, things change quickly. ~Swept up in trouble the moment she starts associating with the Pogues, she wonders whether her assumptions about them have been right all along, and if a certain blonde-haired troublemaker can make her choose to stay despite her doubts. ~Featured song - Linda Blair Was Born Innocent - The Mountain Goats SEASON ONE FINISHED

Life on the cut (JJxReader) OuterBanks Fanfic by AnnieFinch

SEASON TWO INCLUDED.- WORKING ON S3 Y/N is technically a Kook. A rebellious and reckless outsider in Figure 8, she feels more at home with her new friends, the Pogues. JJ's future partner in crime (literally...) -contains NSFW scenes A lot of JJxReader fanfics aren't with a chill "Y/N" imma make my own one. This is from a narrators perspective, but the first season mostly follows Y/N. The second one follows everyone and will be much longer because of it. This is a reader insert, I probably won't cover the scenes that you (Y/N) aren't in, for example- John b and Kie in the lighthouse. (only on the first season) Y/N - your name L/N - last name E/C - eye color S/C - skin color (Any grammar/spelling errors- feel free to tell me) --- This is my first story to be nice xD (All rights and OBX characters belong to the show obvi x)

Fragile Thrones |Rafe Cameron| by FictionByKay

Yamileth Santos had always been told she was special. It wasn't whispered sweetly in her ear or etched into bedtime stories. No, her worth had been hammered into her like a jewel set into a crown-polished, flawless, and cold. Born into one of the wealthiest families in Outer Banks, Yamileth had learned early that power wasn't something given; it was something worn. Her father, a ruthless businessman, and her mother, a socialite who could dismantle anyone with a single arched brow, had raised her to be nothing less than perfect. By the time she was seventeen, she had mastered the art of being untouchable. Boys loved her, but she never let them close. Girls wanted to be her, but she kept them at arm's length. The only person who had ever seen cracks in her armor was her older brother, Mateo, but even he had left for college without looking back. Then, everything changed. That summer, the weight of her father's crown became unbearable. And that's when Yamileth finally noticed Rafe Cameron. They'd always run in the same circles-same parties, same people, same world. He was the guy with too much charm for his own good, always making a scene or pushing the limits of what even Kooks could get away with. She'd dismissed him for years as reckless and loud, more trouble than he was worth. But that summer, something shifted. Maybe it was the way he'd started showing up more often, his eyes lingering on her with a boldness no one else dared. Or maybe it was the fact that, for once, Yamileth felt a crack in her perfect, pristine life.

Invincible | JJ Maybank² by NewDawn_Rising

The first two parts are in my book Unbreakable. "We were never the kind of people who get each other in the end." This story is for everyone unhappy with season 4's ending. A story of all the drama that could follow JJ without the treasure hunting. ----------------------------------- Months have passed since Callie left the Outer Banks behind-since she walked away from JJ, from everything they had, and everything they lost. Now back on the island, Callie needs to come back to her old life without making the same mistakes. But have JJ and Callie really gotten over each other? And can they stay friends without hurting each other? As the summer heat settles in, unresolved feelings bubble to the surface. They've both tried to move on, but gravity has its own rules. Now, Callie must decide: is the past something you leave behind, or something you fight for? In this story I try to capture the wild, messy beauty of falling for someone you can't seem to let go. *Includes mature content such as mental health, sexual mentions, violence and more.* *This story will not follow the plot of the Outer Banks series* *I only own my character and her story* [ fem oc x jj maybank ]

Firebound// JJ Maybank by obxwtflove

Outer Banks Season One Rewrite with OC Liana Celia Routledge has always been a wildcard-fiercely loyal, quick-witted, and just reckless enough to make life interesting. Growing up on the Cut with her twin brother, John B, and the Pogues, she's never needed more than sun-soaked days, weed, and the kind of friendships that feel like family. But when they stumble upon a long-lost mystery that could finally lead them to the truth about their father, everything changes. As the hunt for the legendary Royal Merchant treasure intensifies, so does the danger lurking in the shadows of their island home. Liana is used to playing with fire, but this time, the stakes are higher than ever. Through storms, betrayals, and buried secrets, she leans on the Pogues-especially JJ Maybank, the one person who has always matched her chaos step for step. Their flirty banter has always been just that-harmless fun. But as the world around them spirals out of control, the lines start to blur. And Liana can't ignore the way JJ looks at her anymore... or the way she's starting to look back. With their loyalty tested and enemies closing in, the Pogues will have to fight to keep what matters most-their freedom, their family, and the truth hidden beneath the waves. This summer, the Outer Banks will never be the same.

JJ Maybank Endgame - He Fell First, She Fell Harder by obxstoriess_p4l

Y/N Routledge. Sixteen. John B's little sister. He's been the overprotective type ever since your dad disappeared months ago-setting rules you never agreed to, and watching your every move like you'd vanish too. It's been just the two of you for a while now... well, and JJ Maybank. Seventeen, reckless, full of trouble and charm. He's always around-more than you'd like to admit. And sure, you both get along, but it's always been just friendship. Mostly. Probably. You're a Pogue through and through. Scraped knuckles, stolen boats, and not following the rules is your normal. Sarah Cameron is tolerable now that she's dating your brother, and surprisingly, she's proven herself more than once. But Kooks like Rafe and Topper? Let's just say if looks could kill, they'd be buried six feet under the Chateau. This summer feels... different. Maybe it's the pressure. Maybe it's the secrets. Or maybe it's the fake relationship you never expected to agree to. Rules were made. Lines were drawn. He's not supposed to fall. You swore you wouldn't either. But sometimes hearts don't follow rules-especially in the Outer Banks. **This story can also be found on my TikTok account as well with many others!!** TikTok: @obxstoriess_p4l

Taylor's Summer | Taylor (MC) x Rafe Cameron and JJ Maybank| outer banks | obx by atelophobia15

Taylor grew up in the OBX-sunburnt skin, salty hair, and a family she'd rather forget. So most nights, she crashes at her friends that turned family. The Kooks and Pogues. Labels aren't a thing in their groups friendship. This summer was supposed to be just like the others: wild parties, adventures, too much booze, and even more bad decisions. But between the chaos, the chemistry, and the tension that's been building for way too long with both JJ and Rafe... things are about to get complicated. Lines will be crossed. Friendships tested. Hearts broken. The only question is: Who will Taylor do? Oops. I mean what will Taylor do? Or will she lose herself trying to love them both? A messy, addictive, steamy love triangle set in the Outer Banks. ⚠️WARNING: Mature content, smut, drug use. Etc. *started updating and revising as of 8/7/25*

Driftline : Book 1 by cerlbaby101

Two years away. One summer to find out what really matters. And a storm that will change everything. Rowan Routledge thought she'd left the Outer Banks behind, boarding school, scholarship, new life. But when she comes home for the summer before junior year, the island hasn't changed... and neither have the Pogues. Except now, she's not just John B's twin sister. She's grown into her own. Stronger. Smarter. A little bolder. Maybe even brave enough to face the crush she never admitted, the secrets the island hides, and the storm, literal and otherwise, that's about to hit. With her best friend Kiara by her side, tension with former friend Sarah bubbling beneath the surface, and JJ Maybank throwing more glances than she knows what to do with, Ro is pulled back into the chaos of her old life. When the Pogues discover a sunken Grady White and a mysterious motel key, the summer takes a dark turn. What starts as an adventure quickly becomes a hunt, for truth, treasure, and who they can really trust. Because in the Outer Banks, nothing stays buried forever. #OuterBanksFanfic
