*bit of back story*
It had been 3 months since the pogues and cleo had been on the island. Not much had happened, they had built little huts and surfboards -of course-. But nothing really of significance had happened. So this is where our story starts- with the pogues on the island with no idea about john b's dad or what happened with the cross and the Cameron family.

The sun was setting over the water whilst John b, Pope, jj and I lay on our surfboards a little from shore. The clear, seawater brushes against our boards as we lay on our backs looking up at the sky.

"I missed this for so long." John b sighs and looks at us as we turn our heads to look at him.

"Oh believe me same." Jj laughs and looks up again, "I do wonder though, do you guys think we are ever going to go back to the outer banks?" he says hopefully.

"Of course! Well I definitely am soon. My parents are probably so worried and I can't leave them not knowing where I am for any longer." I admit and sit up frustrated with myself for not trying to contact them at least. I'll have to do that soon I think.

"Yea well if I ever go back I'm gonna need to sneak around, my dad is literally gonna kill me for not sending him a letter or something." Pope chuckles.

We all laugh and head back to shore just before the sun goes down behind the horizon. Cleo and Sarah are sitting by a campfire near the tree we first carved on when we arrived on the island.

"Hey guys!" Sarah chirps and runs up to us. We all chuck our boards onto the sand and John b picks up Sarah and hugs her. Jj rolls his eyes and raises his eyebrows at me and Pope as he walks over to a log bench and sits down.

"Hi cleo." Pope says and looks down as she smiles. Jj huffs and pulls out a beer bottle filled with water as he takes a swig from it.

"Now that is something I miss back on the island, we should send a letter to someone and ask them for drinks and weed." Jj laughs.

"True, I mean couldn't you just pretend it's beer in that bottle or something." I say looking very smug.

"You try it Kie." He replies laughing and chucks the bottle into my hands.

"Eugh." I gasp swallowing the rancid liquid. "that's disgusting it tastes like watered down beer still." I spit throwing it back to him.

Pope and John b give each other a look before I catch them and look at them angrily, I know exactly what they're doing.

"Anyways yall we should probably head to bed soon, we gotta try and catch some more fish tomorrow, we should also finish the raft soon as we shouldn't keep using the boat for fishing incase of an emergency." Cleo says taking leadership.

"Yea yea imma head down." Jj says, "anyone coming? Sleepover at mine." He looks at me and winks.

"Your gross Jj like gross gross, besides your hut is the smallest out of all of ours." I roll my eyes at him and stand up. "Night guys" I say walking off to the camp.

"Yea same I'm gonna head up too." Pope yawns and brushes sand off of himself and stands up.

The others all follow in suit eventually leaving john b to put out the fire. He kicks sand over it and mumbles to himself as he heads back to his hut.
