Look, for nine months everybody has tried to make us believe that our dad's dead. They say we're in denial. Whatever. Denial's underrated, you should try it sometime, its highly effective, and its only denial if you're wrong.

It doesnt make any sense, our dad is the last guy who would ever get lost at sea. The compass coming back to us, out fathers compass which was passed down for generations, its a sign. Our dad is still alive, and we're gonna find him

I woke up and went for a quick run, when I got back I saw JJ looking at a paper that was on the door "Hey, whats that?" I asked him, I took the paper and saw that it was from the DSC, I groaned looking at it

"Come on, lets scare John B" said JJ banging on the door "DSC! I know you're in there" he looked at me and smiled, then jumped on the window, I saw John B jump really scared, JJ and I started laughing and i opened the door

Today we were going over to Lana Grubbs and ask her if she knew anything about why the compass was in the boat. I changed quickly and then got into the van with the guys

"Im just sayin', I dont understand why you dont atleast try with Kiara" said JJ "She clearly likes you" i added "She's like 'oh John B!'" said JJ imitating Kie

"Is that what she says?" asked John B "She's sketching about you diving, and then she kissed you bro" said JJ making a point

"She kissed me on the cheek, its not like we were making out or something" said JB "Low - hanging fruit bro" said JJ

"Dont pretend that you dont notice, I see it in your eyes, youre like, 'I kinda like that', then you start blushing" i told him "I blush?" he asked "Yeah" said JJ

"Really?" he asked us again "Yeah" JJ told him again, then he grabbed the compass making John B freak out and try to take it away from him "Hey, John B, its okay, he was just looking at it" i told him

"i gotta admit, your fathers compass in Scotters boat, thats freaky" said JJ

"Yeah, and thats exactly why we're going to talk to Ms Lana, figure this whole thing out" said JB

"Im sure she would just love to talk to us, its not like her husband just drowned or anything" said JJ

We arrived at the house, it looked really hippie "You know what this house looks like?" asked us John B

"Whoever lives here smokes too much weed" said JJ, as we got closer to the house we heard things breaking and some men screaming

"Maybe we should come back. Its a little too soon" said JJ, I grabbed his hand and squeezed it

"No, no, shut up. Shut up JJ" said my brother getting closer, the closer we got the more we heard the men and Ms Lana sobbing, both JJ and i stopped and looked at eachother with concern in our eyes
