Pogue on Pogue- JJ Maybank

Chapter 20

We all get out of the van and stare at the lighthouse for a second before JB speaks up.

" Okay, this is what's gonna happen. You are gonna post up and look out for bogey's, okay?" John B tells JJ.

" Wait, why me?" JJ asks.

" Because you're not coming." Pope tells him.

" Why?" JJ asks.

" Because there are independent, and dependent variables, and you're an independent variable, we don't know what you'll do." Pope explains, and JJ gets angry.

" Shut up, shut up." JJ yells while Pope finishes his sentence.

" Just listen to me for a second, just listen!" John B says, raising his voice to get Pope and JJ to shut up.

" Makena, you stand look out with JJ, okay?" John B tells me, I nod.

" If we get split up, we meet back at JJ's house." John B tells all of us.

" Great." Kie says.

Pope, Kie, and John B all go into the light house, leaving me and JJ alone. I can tell he's upset about being left behind, so I try to cheer him up.

" Hey." I say, trying to get his attention off of the ball he's bouncing.

" Yeah?" He answers.

" At least we have a little alone time together." I say with a smirk, and start to walk toward him.

" Yeah, finally." He says, still kinda angry about what Pope said.

I finally get next to him when I wrap my arms around his neck and gently kiss him. After about 7 seconds I pull away.

" Feel better now?" I ask him, smiling up at him.

" A bit." He says, smirking down at me.

I kiss him again, this time a little harder, letting him explore my mouth with his tongue. After about 15 seconds I pull away.

" And now?" I ask him.

" I feel a whole lot better." He replies, kissing me gently before pulling away.

We eventually sit down on the grass and just talk, our hands intertwined.

A few minutes later we hear sirens.

" Oh shit." He says, and we bolt up.

" Come on, we gotta go!" He yells at me, pulling me toward the van.

" Just 10 seconds, we can't just leave them here!" I yell.

I try to resist him pulling me but he's too strong and after a few more seconds I give up and get in the van, and we speed away.

Time skip to when JB picks up JJ and Pope except it's not Pope, it's MJ.

After JJ and I drove away, Kie called us and said that JB had been arrested. We decided to drop John B's van off at his house and use my car to get back to JJ's house.

We have been outside JJ's house for a while, just waiting for JB or Kie. We have talked about almost everything there is to talk about, other than what happened with my dad because we both know how well it went the last time we tried.

" Wanna smoke?" I suggest.

" Sure." JJ says.

I go to grab my bag with my right arm when JJ grabs my arm, kinda hard, before loosening his grip.
