"Sarah came out to the boat! You were supposed to keep them distracted!" John B said with a tone of annoyance, pacing his living room while Brenna sat on the couch.
"I'm sorry! My uncle needed me to do something, but you played it off though, right?" Brenna asked with her arms crossed over her chest.
"Yeah because I'm smart like that," John B praised himself, earning a playful eye roll from Brenna.
"I'm going to pick up the rest of the gang if you wanna come?" John B asked as he collected a few things from around the room.
"Sure, but could stop by my place so I can change?" Brenna said lifting herself up off the couch, the dress was comfortable but not treasure hunting material.
The Twisted Mango was a five minute walk away from John B's so whenever Brenna got bored at the shop she would walk to his place to hang out.
The teen boy and girl made their way out to the dock, Brenna jumped onto the boat, John B taking his place at the wheel as she sat at the back of the boat.
John B started up the HMS Pogue and started down the marsh towards where JJ and Pope would be. The two boys had been working for Pope's dad all day.
"Lookin good, Ren!" JJ cheered as he hopped in the boat, Pope right behind him.
"Thanks," Brenna smiled looking down at the dress, thinking about her mom.
"She coming with?" Pope asked John B as he stood beside the driver seat.
"Yes sir, she completed her mission," John B smiled looking back at Brenna sending her a wink, Brenna nodded with a smile.
John B had decided to not tell the rest of the group that Sarah had caught him.
"Hey, what can I say? I'm good at being a distraction," Brenna laughed, cupping her boobs and playfully pushing them up.
"I say we keep her," JJ responded as he basically drooled over the brunette girl.
"Horn dog," Pope said under his breath as he came to sit beside Brenna, earning a small laugh from her.
"If you can keep it in your pants," Kiara laughed slightly over hearing the conversation as John B pulled up to her dock, "I say we keep her," she looked at Brenna with a smile.
"I am right here, y'all," Brenna laughed as Kiara joined her on the stern of the boat, sitting beside her.
"I like the dress," Kiara slightly laughed.
"Thank you, had to impress the royals," Brenna said pretending to be british and standing up to curtsy as John B moved slowly up to the dock that belonged to the Carlson's.
"Are you not coming with?" Kiara asked, kind of sad, she wanted to hang out with the brunette.
"I am, I'm just going to go change quick," Brenna explained as she lifted herself onto the wooden dock. Making Kiara smile again, and happy that she was going to be apart of this journey, also happy the boys hadn't scared her away yet.
John B had given Brenna a run down of what was happening with the pogues on their boat ride to get everyone. He had even confided in her about his dad, it was easy for him to talk to her because she didn't know him like the pogues did.
"Be back in ten!" Brenna called back to the group of friends as she rushed up the dock.
"Brenna! Where are you rushing to?" Jessie asked as the girl sprinted up the stairs to go change.
"I'm going boating with some friends!"
Jessie decided not to question anymore since he was just happy that she was going to hang out with people.
Brenna didn't even think about the things she was grabbing, she just picked up the first swimsuit, t-shirt and shorts she saw. Throwing them on as quick as possible and rushing back to the dock, where she found the four friends talking about the scuba gear.
"And you get the bends," Pope said, probably explaining something sciencey that none of the others understood.
"Bends like, bend over and," JJ trailed off leaning over holding on to the railing.
"The bends kill you," Pope said bluntly.
"Right," JJ sighed standing back up straight, earning an eye roll from Kiara and Brenna.
Kiara turned to reach out a hand to help Brenna back into the boat.
"Thank you," Brenna smiled as her feet landed on the boat.
"Let's roll boys," Kiara clapped as John B got behind the wheel again and pulled away from the dock.
The group drove out to where the four pogues had found the sunk boat the day before.
"I still can't believe this," Brenna said quietly looking over the edge of the boat at the sunken one.
"So really no one knows how to dive?" Kiara repeated herself.
"I mean I've done it before," Brenna shrugged.
"See, kook sport," JJ gestured to Brenna.
"No, I can, uh I can dive," John B said sitting on stern of the boat in-between Brenna and Kiara, "I'm not making you do something this dangerous," he said standing up and looking at Brenna.
"At least I've done it before!" Brenna argued as John B moved around the boat.
"She can dive. I'm cool with that," JJ said
"Since when can you dive?" Kiara sassed, turning to John B, ignoring JJ and Brenna.
"I'll do it. It's fine," John B said trying to sound confident as he grabbed the scuba gear.
"Let me do some calculations real quick," Pope said grabbing some paper and starting to scribble down notes.
"You serious?" Kiara and Brenna sighed.
"That boat's about 30 feet down," Pope rambled.
"Okay"
"So it'll take 25 minutes at that depth," Pope continued. Kiara stood up, listening to what Pope said, Brenna looked up at the girl, knowing she was plotting.
"Which means you need to make your safety stop at about ten feet," Pope kept going.
Kiara pulled off her yellow t-shirt, leaving her in her bikni as she jumped into the water.
"Kie!" Brenna gasped as the water splashed at the edge of the boat.
"What was that all about?" Pope asked.
"I don't know, but I liked it. A lot," JJ smiled.
"Shut up," Brenna glared at JJ, as John B cleared his throat and the boys finished planing the dive.
"I tied my T-shirt to the anchor chain about ten feet down," Kiara explained as she came up to the surface a minute later, swimming over to the boat, "It's where you need to do your safety stop"
Brenna laughed a little at the girl in the water, helping her into the boat.
"Hey, if we get caught in the marsh, we're basically screwed, so you better get a move on," Pope said in his usually slightly worried tone as John B stood at the edge of the boat. Brenna leaned against the drivers area of the boat with her arms over her chest.
"Copy that," John B nodded as Kiara walked towards him.
"Don't focus too much on your breathing, it'll make you panic," Brenna smiled, sharing her knowledge.
"Well then," John B sighed.
Kiara gave the brunette boy a kiss on the cheek, Brenna raised a brow at the action.
"Diver down?" John B questioned.
"Diver down," Kiara repeated. Pope and JJ shared a look of confusion.
"See ya, dude," JJ saluted the water.
"Why are we letting him do this?" Brenna sighed shaking her head.
