"Guys... I think there's a boat down there." Pope says.

"No way-" Kie exclaims, standing up and rolling her eyes.

"No, no, guys. I'm serious." He says, bending over and pointing to the figure of a white boat beneath the water surface. "There's like a boat down there, for real!" He says.

Everybody furrows their eyebrows, quickly getting up and walking over to him.

"Holy shit! There is a boat!" Melia says excitedly, grinning at Pope. "Let's go!" She calls out, tying her hair up into a messy bun before jumping into the water.

"Do you think there's a dead body down there?" Pope asks. Everybody had jumped in now.

John B swims under the surface and Melia takes a deep breath in and goes under. They all swim down to the whereabouts of the boat, trying to look inside without getting too much water in their eyes.

But after a while they were running out of breath, Melia pushed herself back up to the surface, gasping for air.

"You guys saw that?!" JJ yells excitedly.

"Yeah, I did!" Melia says, everybody agreeing.

John B and JJ climb back onto the boat first, then Pope, then Kie. JJ offers out his hand to Emilia which she takes gratefully, hopping onto the boat and sitting down, still catching her breath. She picks the shirt JJ threw off earlier
up and pulls it over her body with a shiver.

"That's a Grady-White." JJ says, wrapping his arm around Melia excitedly, pulling her closer to him. "A new one of those is like 500 Gs, easy!" He says, smiling widely.

"That's the boat I saw when I surfed the surge! Maybe it hit the jetty or something-" John B says, running his hand through his wet hair.

"You surfed the surge?" Kie asks worriedly, frowning slightly.

"And didn't invite me and Jay?" Melia asks, furrowing her eyebrows.

"You two were cuddling on the couch, and don't act like you aren't shit scared of storms!-" John says, defending himself.

She just rolls her eyes and sighs, laying her head on JJ's shoulder.

"Wait, wait. Do we know whose boat that is?" Pope asks, walking back over to the edge of the boat to glance into the water.

"No, but we're about to find out." John B says with a wink, bending down and grabbing the anchor from the hold.

"Dude, it's too deep." JJ says, shaking his head.

"Oh, for the weak and feeble, JJ." John B says with a grin, pulling the anchor up.

"Well, I'm not resuscitating you, just making that clear up front." JJ says, his face upturned with disgust.

"Retweet." Melia says, fake gagging, making JJ laugh.

"Thats fine-" John B says with an eyeroll.

"John B-" Kiara says, looking up at him with a a worried look in her eye. He hums slightly in confusion, tilting his head.

"Diver down, fool." Pope says with a laugh.

JJ and Melia look at each other with a mischevious grin, nodding at one another.

"Yeah he is!" They both call out, pushing him into the water with the anchor, causing him to sink.

JJ and Melia laugh as they watch him swim down. She sits down, stretching slightly. She keeps an eye on John B, making sure he isn't dead or whatever. Not like she cares. (She absolutely does care.)
