after a very long day, we decided to have a kegger party. I know probably not the smartest choice but what do you expect out of a bunch of teens. I sat on a log by the fire just chatting away with a few other Kooks that I knew from home not failing to notice I caught the eye of a certain blonde. as I was about to turn around to say something to him, I heard arguing behind me making me turn my head to see Sarah and Topper going at it. I leaned back so I could hear the conversation more as I was nosy
T- I don't want you around them! Sarah you know why!
S- you don't control me topper! I'm over you trying to control me all the time!
T- what are you even saying Sarah?! I lov-
S- I'm breaking up with you
my eyes widen as I leaned forward choosing not the hear the rest of that conversation as I chugged down the rest of my beer. As I had gotten up to get another drink at the kegger, I saw Topper and John B start to go at is as Sarah was trying to break them up which caused me to go over and watch right as everyone had gotten up and walked to the water standing on the sand as we watched Topper and John B fight, it wasn't until he started to drown John B that we all started to get worried
R- topper enough! let him go!
K- guys stop it! sarah get your boyfriend in check!
S- he's not my boyfriend anymore and you get your friend in check!
P- not the time! John B!
I looked at Pope whose eyes were fixated at the fight going on, I heard a lot of gasps around me making me turn my head back to the fight just to see JJ holding a gun to Topper's head. my heart started to race a million an hour as I could feel like fear raise in my body. my eyes welled up with tears as they started to slip down my face seeing JJ holding Topper at gun point
R- JJ stop it! please! JJ stop!
my voice cracked as I yelled clearly catching the attention of Kie who was looking at me, but I was too focused on the scene in front of me. JJ looked at me and his face changed from anger to regret in a spilt second, he than aimed the gun at the sky and shot it
JJ- all of you get off our side of the island! I stg I better not find a single one of you here! go!
everyone started scrambling to run away leaving us and the pogues left standing there in shock. JJ looked at me as Pope and Kie ran to help John b. my heart rate was still raising as we stared at each other. in this very moment, I realized I was afraid of him, i was afraid of what he would do. he stepped closer me making more tears slip down my face
JJ-Rowan i didn't-
I stepped back as he got closer, I could see the hurt in his eyes and could feel the tension rising between us, he knew I was afraid of him at this very moment. as he went to step closer to me again reaching his hand out, I turned on my heel and took off running off the beach.
JJ- rowan wait please!
I heard his footsteps behind me as I kept running faster and faster until he caught up to me grabbing my arm stopping us both. I stared at the dark concrete below my feet refusing to meet is gaze as he stared at me sighing
JJ- rowan look at me please
his voice was soft and cracked when he spoke. when I didn't meet his gaze, he gently lifted my face up to look at him using his right hand that was on my wrist before. I had tears falling from my eyes as he used his left hand to carefully wipe them away
JJ- I didn't mean to scare you, I don't like see that fear in your eyes. the fear that I caused
he was still speaking in that soft whisper tone as if he were to speak any louder, I would run away, he moved his hand off my wrist and tucked my hair behind my ear deepening his gaze
JJ- I would never hurt you, rowan
he placed a soft tender kiss on my forehead before resting our foreheads together. for a moment i felt calm and okay in his gaze ignoring the fear i felt before, before he placed a soft but quick kiss on my lips pulling back as quick as he came sighing
JJ- please forgive me for what I have done
I looked up at him wiping the tear that had slipped from his eye before placing a kiss on his cheek having to go a little on my tippy toes to do so.
