In which,

                   After an intoxicated hookup 2 weeks prior to hurricane Agatha, things just weren't the same between best friends, Molly Everdeen and JJ Maybank.

No matter how much they tried to forget about that whole night, it happened. It was like a permanent mark they had left on each other.

The pair had tried to ignore each other; give each other the cold shoulder. It wasn't so easy when they were in the same friend group and were the only people who had ever understood one another. They needed each other.

No pogue on pogue macking.

That was the problem.
