can y’all imagine the pure chaos that would ensue if jj and sarah really do turn out to be twins which would in turn would mean that jj is half related to rafe?

i feel like that would definitely make jj & rafe hate each other even more lol

also i feel like jj would HIGHKEY be disgusted because he definitely found sarah attractive at one point and he wouldn’t be able to look at her the same

Summary:JJ & (Y/N) have been best friends since kindergarten. Now that they’re older, it’s painfully obvious to their group of friends that they have feelings for each other but are too scared to admit it. Said group of friends has finally had enough and decides to give them a little nudge. 

TW/CW:JJ Maybank x Reader, best friends to lovers, a couple suggestive comments, 

Requested?:Nope 

Word Count: 989 

A/N:I day dream way too much while I work and last night’s shift was a long boring one. This imagine helped me pass the time. 

Prompts:None 

Hanging with my best friend JJ and our other Pogue friends is always entertaining. This time, however, the power is out and we have no trouble to get into. JJ and I had plenty of dastardly ideas but no one in the group bit the bait. So here we sit, twiddling our thumbs and praying the power would arise from the dead. 

Kie sat up suddenly, “What about spin the bottle? But just like kisses on the cheek or something?” 

Everyone looked around at each other but Pope was quick to dismiss the idea, “No, the last time we played that, John B and Sarah sat there macking for an hour just for shits and giggles.” 

“Okay, fine. Truth or Dare then. One person spins the bottle and they get to truth or dare whoever it lands on. Then the person who was just challenged gets to spin next,” Kie shot back. No one seemed to object so Kie grabbed the bottle and spun it. 

A few rounds went by of playful truths and easy dares before the bottle finally landed back on Kie who was dared to do a handstand without using the wall as support. It was obviously very easy for her. She quickly completed the handstand and then spun the bottle. It almost landed on John B to JJ’s right but Kie in a not-so-subtle rigging bumped it back a bit to land on JJ.  

JJ raised an eyebrow, “That was rigged but go ahead.” 

Kie had to contain her giggles before asking, “Truth or Dare.” 

“I’m not some pansy, give me a dare,” comes JJ’s quick response. 

“I dare you to kiss (Y/N) on the lips,” Kie shoots out. 

I’ll be honest here, it’s not that I don’t want JJ to do the dare, but I’m sure he doesn’t want to do it so I feel the need to speak up in an effort to save myself some embarrassment, “Ah, but the rule, Kie. No pouge on pouge macking.” 

John B is the first to speak up this time, “Well as Pogue President, I hereby deem a macking session between JJ Maybank and (Y/N) (Y/L/N) to be lawful due to the fact that JJ and (Y/N) were best friends before they were pogues.” He shoots JJ a look that says he knows they’ve got us cornered so JJ leans forward on the couch and rests his head on top of mine as I sit in front of him.  

He picks his head up and looks at the side of my face as I glare at Kie, “Yay or Nay, Tiny?” Looking up at him, I nod so he slowly leans forward before our lips connect and, as cliché as it sounds, fireworks erupt. When we pull apart, I prop my face up in my hands in hopes of hiding the blush.  

JJ leans back into the couch for a moment and takes a deep breath before quickly leaning back forward and whispering in my ear, “X marks the spot.” The code phrase for, “meet me at our secret place.” Our secret place is this little alcove just down the beach from here that we found when we were kids. It quickly became our favorite getaway and we pinky promised to never share it with anyone else. He and I get up and head for the door, “We’ll be back later,” JJ mumbles amongst the whoops and hollers of our friends. 

We walk down the beach, side by side in silence. The awkward tension between us hangs thick and my stomach twists itself into knots as my brain assumes the worst. However, when we finally duck into the alcove JJ pulls me into a hug, “They did that to force us to stop dancing around the bush about the feelings we have for each other.” 

I nod into his chest, “I know.” 

As we release each other I look up at him with a giant grin on my face, “I’d like to upgrade my subscription to JJ Maybank from standard to premium please.” 

He laughs wholeheartedly with a smile on his face, “I can do that for you. However, you’ll need to submit a valid form of payment. Although, I should inform you that at this time, kisses are the only acceptable method.” I stand up on my tiptoes and kiss him for the second time tonight. As he pulls me close, I slip his phone out of his pocket, pull away, and pretend to check his notifications, “You have an email. It says, ‘Congratulations, JJ Maybank you have won a free premium subscription to (Y/N) (Y/L/N).’” He grins at me as I hand him his phone back and we begin making our way back to The Chateau hand in hand. 

We’re almost there when JJ pulls me closer and throws his arm around my shoulders, “By the way, you’re not sleeping on the couch anymore.” 

I look up at him with mock surprise, “Oh really? Is that some perk of my premium membership?” 

He nods, “Yup, as a premium subscriber you get an all-expenses-paid stay at the JJ Maybank Bed and Breakfast. Betcha can’t guess what the breakfast part of that entails.” 

I shake my head and giggle at him, “JJ, is your head in the gutter again?” 

He shrugs, “It never leaves the gutter, babe.”  

Once we hit the porch of The Chateau, JJ opens the front door for me. I step into the living room before him and can feel his eyes on my ass but I don’t mind. It is in fact included in his premium subscription. Once we both plop down onto the couch and join the conversations of our friends, he throws his arm back around my shoulders and I snuggle into his side. This of course does not go unnoticed by our friends who erupt into a chorus of awwws and a great big, “Fucking finally!” from Kie.

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

PART1

“When are you going to make the move?” asks kiara as she sits on your bed.

“I don’t know what you mean” you reply cluelessly. Of course you know what she means, but you don’t like to talk about it.

“you and jj? Since we were at the motel, he doesn’t stop talking about you. Come on, he’s always hitting on you” says Kie with a smile.

“even if he does kie, i’m not making the first move. If he wants me he should show it” you smile wickedly. 

“Right right… Forgot you were a fucking bad bitch” Kie says laughing.

“I’ll take that as a compliment” you wink.

You actually wouldn’t be uninterested in Jj, but you’re the kind of girl who needs the boy to approach her. 

It’s not like you don’t like to make the first move, why not, you have nothing to lose. But you want to know if Jj has the guts.

————-

It is evening and you are at a party at the Camerons. Jj and you don’t let each other out of your sight. Especially when alcohol is involved, it gets even more interesting for the two of you. 

You dance to the music in the living room. You’re wearing a slightly shorter tight dress and moving damn well to the music. 

You suddenly feel hands sliding over your hips.

“Hey baby girl” he says with a rough, deep voice.

“Hey Jj” you say without turning around. JJ slides his hands over your body and comes closer to your neck with his head. You feel his warm breath on your skin.

“Turn around” he whispers in your ear and you turn around. To provoke him, you put your arms over his shoulders. His hands are still on your hips as you dance together. You lean your head closer to JJ. Closer and closer to his lips. Just as he’s about to kiss you, you lean back again with a smile, and walk away.

“What was that dude?” says John B with a confused look and raised eyebrows. 

“I don’t know man this girl is driving me crazy” says jj and bites his lip.

After a while, y'all go home to the chateau, separated and staggered from each other. You all sleep there tonight. JJ insisted on accompanying you when you wanted to leave. On the way home there is a strange, tense silence.

When you arrive, JJ stands at the door of his room and makes a move with his head that you should come here. You go into his room and he slams the door. You get goose bumps. Jj looks you in the eyes while he takes off his shirt. His muscles and this sight makes you weak. 

“Make me,” you say. Jj looks to the side with a smile. Then he makes a movement with his hand so that you come to him. He takes off your dress and you stand in front of him in only your red underwear. He looks up and down your body as you are suddenly crashed against the door. Jjs hand goes higher and higher to your neck with some pressure. Jj comes closer to your ear as he goes down your body with his hand.

“I’m going to make you scream tonight” he says and then crashes his lips on yours. He takes off your underwear while you open his pants. He pulls down his pants.

Jj pushes you onto the bed right after and as wet as you are he pushes right into you. You cry out for a moment. 

He gets faster and faster while he slides his hand over your body.

“JJ” you moan 

“yeah, who makes your legs shake baby girl” moans JJ.

“you JJ, fuck” you groan.

You both fuck the whole night and notice nothing around you. The others are already home. And obviously the walls of the chateau are not the thickest…..

—————————-

“Hey guys” you say the next morning as you go out to the others sitting on the porch.

“hey girl” says Kie as she gives you a weird look.

“What you got there?….right there on the neck” says Kie and the others look at you too.

“Oh…um yeah mosquito bite” you say. 

“Sure” says Pope laughing.

“And here comes the mosquito” you say smiling as Jj comes out as well.

“Well” says John b and the others respond the same.

“Why are you people looking at me like that? It’s because I look so good right” says Jj as he sits down on a chair.

“Nevermind” says Kie.

“So you two, how was last night?” asks John b curiously, looking over at Pope, Sarah and Kie.

“what are you talking about?” you ask with a questioning look.

“Wait wait wait… it went a little like this” says Pope and starts singing and making fake gestures and mimics with his face 

“Take it slow" 

"Put it down on me” Sarah adds 

“I said jump on it” says Kie

“Ride like a pony” says John b with a fake moan.

 They all just laugh.

„Oh JJ" groans John b laughing.

Jj bows, as if they were applauding.

„Okay but dude, like you guys should be proud of me, shouldn’t you?“ says Jj smiling at you 

"we could not not hear you guys you were so loud” John b laughs and the others admit.

“Yeah she was” says Jj quietly, in thoughts, kinda looking at you.

“What?” asks Pope

“What? Oh uh nothing” replies Jj

Jj sits down next to you and looks over to you.

“I knew you’d like that di-” says Jj but you interrupt him 

“Just shut up” you say as Jj gives you a smirk.

Summary: you’re on the way to the motel… Jj talks about hitting on you without him noticing that you’re behind

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

You are sitting on the HMS Pogue and are on the way to the motel from which you have the key.

It is a wrecked, run down motel. Everything is devastated by the storm.

(Jj whistles) “I thought the chateau looked bad.”

“This place is a shitshow” john b comments.

“Motel or meth lab?” Ki asks curiously

“Definitely meth lab” you say

“You be the judge” adds john b

“Doesn’t look like a place anyone with a Grady-White stays” says John b

“No, looks like a place someone with a Grady-White would be killed” says Pope

“Alright here we go. (This is your captain speaking, HMS Pogue comin in for landing)” says Jj pretending to talk into a radio.

Jj hops off the boat and gives a “Whoo!”. He begins to tie up the boat.

“We good?” asks John b

“Yeah, we good” replies Jj.

“Alright. Here goes nothing” says John b as he gets off the boat.

“Hey… don’t let him do anything stupid” says Pope pointing at Jj.

“Oh we will” says Jj and you give him a look

“Of course you will” you say and Jj smirks at you.

“I don’t make promises” says John b

“Oh man… Hey Y/N can’t you go with them?” says Kie

“Yeah, you can watch me” says Jj and winks at you with a smile

“they’ll be fine” you say and sit down.

“Be careful” Kiara says to John b and gives her the key.

“I mean it”

“Yeah” John b laughs and the two of them leave.

The two boys go up to the room.

“just be so careful john b” says jj as he touches john b in the face.

“God you’re so weird” John b pushes Jj away.

Meanwhile Pope convinces you to go up.

“Come on Y/N he only listens to you when it comes to him doing shit” says pope desperately.

“Okay okay…chill, I’m going” you say and head up the stairs.

You walk behind the two who don’t even notice you.

“What the hell was that about?” asks jjohn b

“I don’t know maybe she wants us to be careful” John b looks at Jj.

“Since she heard you’re being threatened with exile, she’s just been, like, "Oh be so careful John b” Jj massages John b’s shoulders.

“Get off” John b says annoyed.

“Oh, just give me that John D already” JJ moans and you have to hold back a giggle.

“When are you gonna swoop on that, man?”

“Bro you know the rule, no pogue on pogue macking”.

“Besides you’re the one always hitting on both of the girls” says John b

“Woah woah, I’m not hitting on both girls, if I am then Y/N. And of course I’m hitting on Y/N. She’s a super hot, rich chick slumming with us…. Why? I can’t figure it out either, but who cares bro?” says John b

“Yeah but you haven’t tried it out yourself have you?” says John b

“No dude I’m not going to ruin everything with her. But with Kiara you can’t mess anything up man…. she obviously likes you” says Jj

“You need help. Not a little help, but a lot of help” says John b

“It’s like, any girl that has a heartbeat, you’re like "uuuuh” as in Y/N" John b fakes a moan

“What, it’s not a big deal. And you can’t blame me bro, just look at her” says John b

“Is that us? 29?” says john b

“Interesting conversation you guys are having ” you say and stand next to them.

“Wait… what are you doing here?” asks John b, confused.

“Pope insisted that I keep an eye on Jj” you say.

“okay but since when…since when are you behind us?” asks Jj looking over at John b

“A while” you giggle

“That is… have you been listening to us?” asks Jj and you nod.

“Okay guys no time for that…. this is it” john b says pointing to the door.

Jj walks closer to the door and knocks on it a few times “Housekeeping” he says in a high pitched voice. He opens the door and you go in.

“Here’s a jacket… no name on the jacket” says Jj.

“It’s a nice jacket though”

“Jj we don’t steal anything” you say and give him a look

“Well…” says Jj

“Definitely over 50 he has New Balances” John b looks around.

Jj walks over to the bathroom with his flashlight.

“Coffee?” asks John b

“Yeah…standard…tissues for when you get lonely” says Jj

“Who leaves a hotel room like this?” you say as you follow Jj.

“Ooooh… here’s a great dopp kit you won’t let me steal” says Jj and you take it from his hand.

“Exactly Jay” you say and stand in front of him. He looks at you with a smile and puts something in his pocket.

“JJ” you say

“Shh” JJ holds his finger in front of your mouth and looks you in the eyes.

In the meantime John B opens the save with a number on a piece of paper.

“You’re gonna want to see this” he says and we get closer. John B holds up a bundle of bills.

“Dude dude dude” says jj as he pulls out a gun.

“Put the gun back Jj” says John b.

“this is a fucking spendy gatt man. Just… Bam! Bam!” Jj pretends to shoot.

“Jj we don’t steal anything” John b holds Jj by his top.

“Just take a pic of me. Right here” says Jj to John b

“You want me to take a pic of you? You wanna make our own incriminating evidence? Is that what you’re talking about?” says John b and you laugh while Jj looks confused.

“Jj you are such a fool” you say and roll your eyes.

Then you hear a noise and John b rushes to the window.

“Cops” he says and you all go out the window as fast as you can. John b goes to the right of the window and presses himself against the wall. While Jj follows you to the left. You stand with your back to the wall and Jj in front of you. Your bodies are pressed together.

“Jj remember I was supposed to have an eye-” you say but Jj holds his hand in front of your mouth and looks at you.

Jj looks at the window as he drops the gun. You all squint your eyes and the gun crashes to the floor with a loud noise.

“You’re unbelievable” you say and Jj smirks slightly.

After a few minutes you jump down and get on the boat.

“well that was fun” Jj laughs

“Could have warned us a little sooner”

“We could have, except Pope was on the math team” says Kie.

“You were on the math team?” asks Jj laughing.

“At least he has a brain and the ability to think unlike you” you say looking at Jj.

“Have you been keeping an eye on him? Did you at least find something?” pope asks you

“Well…” you say

“did we find anything? No, I don’t think so. Oh yeah, we did” Jj holds up the money and the gun

“Dude what? Why would you take that from a crime scene?” Jj stands up in a huff

“Better than the cops having it” says Jj.

“You’re such a dick” you say and look away. Jj sits down next to you.

“Yeah but you like that dick don’t you?” he smirks.

Short summary: you are at a party on the beach and topper and rafe talk shit about you. Jj is a little too protective of you though. He pulls out a gun and stuff…You two have a big fight and when you go to apologize Jj is sitting in a jacuzzi….

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

You and Jj are happier than ever. He is the best you could ever have imagined. But for the last few days he’s been very strange. You know about his bail he has to pay because he sacrificed himself for Pobe of the police. But he is so reserved with you and so cold. You don’t know what to do. 

That night you had a party on the beach. A lot of people were there. Topper comes to you.

“Hey you sweet princess, can I get you a nice drink?” he asks laughing. 

“Topper watch your mouth!” says Jj as he comes towards you

“Or what? Will the little princess be defended again?” says Rafe as he looks at Topper and laughs, pretending to be a crying baby with his hands.

Jj runs to him and slaps him in the face and he does not stop 

“I SAID WATCH YOUR MOUTH! ” Jj yells and punches the shit out of Rafe.

“JJ STOP” you say worried.

“GO Away” he yells.

You step in and try to get Jj out as you get a punch from Rafe.

“FUCK, Rafe I swear you wish you were dead right now” says Jj as he hits harder and harder. 

“Your girlfriend looks really hot for a Pogue JJ” says Rafe out of breath as he takes your hand and pulls you towards him.

Jj takes a gun out of his trousers and points it at Rafe. 

“I swear to you, don’t touch her! say one more word…” says Jj 

“Omg JJ” cries Kiara.

“Put the fucking gun down” says Pobe 

Jj does not listen to any of this and continues. He shoots in the air.

“WHAT TO FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?” you shout to Jj when you can no longer hold on. 

The gun falls out of his hand and he looks over at you while he is still sitting on Rafe. 

“What the hell is wrong with you” you say again

He now gets up and walks towards you. 

“what did you say?” he says with a look you have never seen on him before.

“you could have killed someone, you don’t realize that. ‘damn it!’ you say aloud

"I was just trying to protect you. What the fuck are you trying to tell me?!” he says angrily.

“JJ, why are you like this? What’s going on with you?’ you say. 

He comes closer with an aggressive look. 

"NO go away from me!” you scream loudly. You were scared.

“Wow. So you don’t want me to touch you anymore. OK PRINCESS I’ll walk away from you, but don’t come crying to me later… you stupid bitch” he says pissed 

“JUST FUCK YOU JJ” you scream in tears and run away. 

“FUCK” yells JJ and kicks his foot in the sand.

—-

You haven’t seen each other since that day. It’s been a week and a half…

—-

At JohnBs

-

“JJ come out you must eat” shouts JohnB through his cabin.

“Leave me the fuck alone JohnB” he says angrily

JohnB pulls him out and they sit down on the porch.

“JJ why don’t you go and see her? It’s been a long time since you’ve seen each other. Why do you wait so long, go to her. I can see how it hurts you” says JohnB

“I can’t… Shit I have to pay for restitution, I have to deal with my dad, I have to go to my girlfriend and make everything alright … "I CAN’T DO THIS ANYMORE. Fuck it, I mean nothing fucking matters any more,” says Jj and goes home.

—-

At Kiaras

—-

“I think I’ll go and see him now. It has been so long and he is not coming. Damn it. I must go to him." 

It’s already dark and you’re going to his place. 

When you get there, you see a hot tub? Yeah, a hot tub. And JJ’s in it. 

"What the fuck? JJ, did you buy that?” you say angrily

“heyyyyyy you..yes I did” he says laughing.

He’s sitting there with a bottle of champagne in his hand in his sunglasses. He has his golden chain on which you find so attractive. He is obviously drunk. 

“How much did that cost?” you say

“Um… well with the generator, the petrol and oh express delivery… pretty much all of it.” he says 

“ALL OF IT? You spend all the money in one day?" 

"yeah burned a whole right through my pocket….but I mean like, come on, like, look at this” he says smiling.

  “so what? Can’t a man have a little luxury in his life? Come on all this scrimpin’ and scrapin’… (he starts to sound whiny)… I mean like… you only live once, right? Enough of this emotional shit. Get in the cats ass. Come on….That’s what I named her” says JJ

“Oh I almost forgot”

He is turning on a glowing disco ball that is hanging from a tree.

“Yeah that’s right. I know…Disco mode…That’s right baby.” he says with a desperate smile. 

“Are you kidding me? You could’ve paid for restitution. You could have done anything to help people or to help YOU. "Anything would have been better”, you say angrily.

Jj looks away with his hand going over his face.

“Okay well you know what? I didn’t do that!” he yells.

Meanwhile he stands up and you see an unbelievable amount of bruises and injuries on his upper body. 

“I got a hot tub. For my friends. You know what, screw friends. I got a hot tub for you, my family.” he says and he starts to cry a little while talking. 

“What the hell” you say

“I got this for you! Look what I did for you babe. All right? Look at this! 

"JJ” you say with a worried look and tears in your eyes. 

“no just stop being emotional. It’s fine okay.” he says crying

“I mean it’s sweet-right? Everything. Just get in” he sobs as you come and hug him 

“I just couldn’t do it.. I CANT TAKE HIM ANYMORE” he says and cries out loud.

“I was gonna kill him” he says as he collapses and bursts into tears.

“I just wanted to do the right thing you know”

“I know baby…I know” you say also sobbing while holding him in your arms.

“Baby” says Jj

“Yeah, baby?” you say.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry I called you that and I got so mad, I just… I wanted to protect you. I couldn’t stand to lose you,and I couldn’t live with myself. You’re the only person who can give me a hold. I couldn’t hold myself back because I can’t stand anyone hurting you or talking to you like that,” says Jj still tearfully.

“Baby, it’s all right. I’m sorry too I shouldn’t have overreacted like that. Jj I am always here for you. I will always stand behind you, you know that. You won’t lose me. I was only worried about you because you had a gun and I was scared,” you say desperately. 

“scared of me.” Jj answers with tears in his eyes.

“No… I-I… you came at me so aggressively, I…" 

"Oh my god…baby you thought I was gonna hit you. Hurt you? YOU?…..I’m becoming my dad. I am my dad. I can’t take this any more. I can’t take it. You’re too good for me,” he says sobbing and walks away from you.

“No,baby,wait… wait” you call after him" 

“How could you think I would hurt you? How can I be such a bad person that I make you feel like I’m going to hurt you? Baby… I… I can’t do this. I would never do anything to hurt you. You’re my life,my world,my angel. "Babe, I’m such a piece of shit…” he says. 

“No Jj stop. Stop it. You are not a piece of shit. I love you baby i was scared for you. I always will be. And I couldn’t stop myself. Only you got so aggressive, I was just scared,” you say. 

“Babe I don’t know how to apologize. I’m so sorry,I just… just…”

“Say it” you say and look at him 

“I hate him. He is to blame for everything. He turns me into this person who calls you a fucking bitch. I mean, how?” he says. 

“Baby I know. I know. But you have me. I’m all yours and that’s not gonna change." 

"You’re only mine, right?!” he says worriedly

“Forever” you promise him.

Summary: at a party, Kie blurts out that you start liking Jj. After Jj and you ignoring e/o, the Pogues decide to leave you alone on the boat to sort things out….

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

Today is a party at Sarah’s. Well, what does party mean. Her parents are at the Bahamas and the six of you want to hang out. 

When you arrive, you sit outside on the veranda. Jj gets you a couple of beers and you have fun.

“I think we need to toughen up a bit” Sarah says as she stands up and grabs some tequila from the shelf. All you can hear is cheering. Tequila is your weakness. You love it but you shouldn’t drink too much of it.

“I’m so in today,” says Ki and drinks from the bottle.

“Woah easy Ki” says Pobe and takes the bottle from her hand. 

After a few shots and a lot of beer you are all pretty drunk. But not as drunk as Ki. You could say she really got into it.

Kiara stands in front of you all the time and dances wildly. It’s funny. And sometimes you join in. 

“Hey you guys… you’re… cute” she says dancing and looking at you and Jj. You just sit next to each other. Nothing special.

“Thank you” says Jj and looks at you.

“Guys guys I’ve never seen her SO drunk.” Says JohnB and laughs

“You know what’s funny. No…. not funny but I think it’s so cute because Y/N is soooo into JJ.” Says Ki still dancing

“Ou…” you hear Pobe and JB say from the side. 

You can’t believe what she just said. Everyone is quiet. Your heart beats faster and you blush. You see JJ’s shocked face from the side. 

“No… what? That… is not true” you say.

“Yes it is… you just don’t want to admit it… but you always come up to me and you’re like "omg Ki Jj looks so hot” or “I miss Jj”. I swear she would want to have sex with you" Ki says drunkenly as she realises that was too much.

“Oh really?… man I didn’t know that…” says jj laughing and looking at you.

“Ugh fuck that” you say, getting up and walking away. 

Jj follows you.

“Wait wait wait… where are you going Y/N?” asks Jj and you stop.

“Home.” You reply. 

“So…” says Jj but you interrupt him.

“This is not something I want to talk about right now, I’m pissed as hell at Kiara and I want to go home Jj!” You say annoyed and keep walking 

“Okay. Good. But I’m definitely not letting you go alone. I’ll go with you” says Jj and takes you home.

————-

Today is a party on the beach. 

Ki apologized multiple times now but you didn’t answer.

You have not continued to talk to Jj about what Ki said. 

You just got into a conversation with a boy. 

“Hey, can I get you anything?” says a boy, daniel, with whom you have often talked, leaning against a tree. 

“No, but thanks” you say 

“So why is a pretty girl like you here all alone?” he asks and smiles 

“Oh, I was just gonna get a drink”

“I’ll fix you something” he says and winks at you 

“Oh thank you” you answer smiling  

Jj looks at you. You see how jealousy goes up in him when he sees you with the guy. 

“Jj are you okay?” says JohnB

“I’m fine” Jj says without taking his eyes off you. 

“What are you looking at? Did something happen between you two?” asks Pope 

“no, why should it” says Jj and looks over to the others 

“you’ve been staring at them all evening” says Ki

“It just makes me sick,” says Jj 

“I can’t understand why she even talks to him,” he explains. 

“I mean, nobody can. She hated him back then” admits JohnB. 

“She still does,” says Jj angrily 

“Doesn’t look like it,” Pope notes 

Jj looks over to you. You hug the guy and you laugh together. 

“Hey guys” you say smiling 

“So you and that guy there,” Jj says without even looking at you. 

“He has a name Jj. It’s daniel” you say annoyed 

“Oh sorry miss. So you two? You and DANIEL?” Jj replies

“Yeah, we like to hang out together. We’re not together or anything,” you say 

“fucking bullshit” says Jj and looks at you

“What do you have now. That’s none of your business”

“You obviously like him.” Jj says angrily 

“It’s so wrong” says Jj and kicks his foot in the sand

“why wrong?” you say 

“Oh my God, we’re certainly not going to talk about that now” says Jj annoyed 

“what the hell is wrong with you” you say out loud

“Nothing.. just maybe I thought that I’d mean something to you. But turns out, I don’t” says Jj 

“I’m gonna go guys, I’ll see you later but I really don’t need to do that to myself” you say and go back to the guy who was obviously waiting for you

——-

So the others notice that you both like each other. But neither of you has managed to start a conversation. No one wants to make the first move. Even though Jj wanted to fight for you, and did, he doesn’t see the point of chasing after you after all this. And you don’t know what to do. You don’t know how to explain to him that you kind of like him too. 

“Guys, we have to do something,” Johnb says to Pobe, Sarah and Ki.

“What are you talking about, you idiot?” asks Sarah with a laugh.

“I mean about Jj and Y/N…. it’s so obvious that they like each other and we know that. But they both don’t have the balls to do anything,” JohnB says.

“Yeah right… what do you have in mind?” asks Pobe curiously.

“Maybe we go for a ride on HMS Pogue and say we have a problem on the boat. Jj’s dad’s boat. It’s still in the water here at the chateau” says Ki

“Yeah… yeah and then have them help us and then we jump off the boat and drive away. We’ll leave them there to talk,” says Sarah.

“You girls are really great at making plans” says JohnB laughing.

“Good idea though,” adds Pobe.

And so they did. They planned everything and told you they needed help. They pick you up and drive you to the boat.

You get on it.

“What’s the problem?” says Jj

“Well, somehow the Phantom won’t start” says Sarah.

„The Phantom? Nah this baby works all the time. It’s like this girl is brand new guys" says Jj as he starts looking at the engine. You join in. Meanwhile Sarah and Johnb jump off the boat and drive away with the others on the HMS pogue.

“Guys she works. Everything normal here” says Jj as you two notice them driving away 

“HEY WHAT THE HELL” you scream and run forward.

“YOU NEED TO TALK. AND NOW YOU HAVE TIME TO” JohnB shouts back.

You want to jump into the water but Jj stops you.

“Y/N it’s no use… they’re already gone” he says.

“ugh” you say and sit down. You sit there with just your bikini top and shorts. And Jj sits a little further away, topless and in his shorts.

At first you don’t talk. Jj is kind of pissed and you are pissed because he is pissed. 

After a while it gets dark and you get some lights from the boat and put them on the deck. 

Jj rolls a joint and smokes it.

“Ugh Jj, you can go away with that. I don’t want the smell” you say annoyed.

“Sorry… I’ll put it away” he says and throws the joint into the water.

“You don’t have to throw it away” you reply.

“Yes… it bothered you” he says.

Kind of sweet. Jj always cared about how you were and made sure you were okay. Even now.

By now it’s dark and you’re laying on cover under the open sky on the boat. You look at the stars.

“Hey Y/N” says Jj

“Yes” you say

“What was that yesterday?” he says as he turns to face you. 

“You mean you got mad at me for talking to a kook?” you reply, still not looking at him.

“yes Y/N I am or was pissed as shit. Kooks are all the same. And fuck he just wants to fuck you. That’s just how they are” he says

“Oh wow Y/N don’t be prejudiced. Why are you reacting like this?” you ask and turn to face Jj.

“What the fuck Y/N? I thought you liked me? I thought it was worth fighting for you and that I had managed to get you when Ki blurted out the stuff,” Jj says, slightly angry.

“I… I know.”

“I’m sorry but I just wanted to distract myself a bit after that” you say.

“Distract? From what, me?” asks Jj slightly hurt.

“Yeah… yeah, kinda” you say.

“What was that Ki said yesterday? Do you really like me? Or do you still think I’m a player?” asks Jj.

“no… I mean yeah… so Ki was right Jay. I do like you. You fought so hard for me and you took it all so seriously I never expected that. You made me change my mind. I believe you. And I like you. I believe you Jj” you say 

You see the relief in Jj’s eyes. He looks so happy.

“So you want to go through this with me? Do we want to get serious?” asks Jj

“Yes… yes I will go through with it with you” you say smiling.

“That is… no wait” says Jj and stands up. He kneels down in front of you.

“Will you be my girlfriend?” he asks with a smile.

“Of course Jj. Yes” you say laughing and he hugs you.

“I wanted to ask you that for so long” he smiles

“Y/N I promise to always be by your side” says Jj.

“Thank you Jay” you say

He comes closer and gives you a loving kiss

“It feels so good to know that you are mine now” Jj says with a smile and looks you in the eyes.

After your conversation there was silence between you and Jj. He left and left you standing there. Somehow understandable, but somehow not. It was weird yesterday. You two have never talked about anything like that before. And was so jealous and everything.

You sit in your bed and think. The doorbell rings and you go to open it. When you open it, Jj is standing there. 

“Hey… sorry I ran off. It just kind of messed me up, what you said and everything. Although you’re right.” Says jj and looks at you

“It’s okay” you say 

“Look… I know I don’t have a good image. And all you hear about me is stuff like that. But I’m not a player anymore. Okay, I was. I admit that, but y/n believe me I saw you and everything changed. I like you Y/N” Says Jj

“How am I supposed to believe you, please?” You ask rolling your eyes.

“I promise you."  He says and takes your hand

"Okay Jj no. I can’t. I can’t believe this” you say and take your hand away.

“You know what? That’s okay. CauseI will make you believe me. Y/N I will fight for you until I have you. I will do anything to make you believe me. Anything.” Says JJ and your heart does a few spins.

After saying this, JJ turns and walks away again. You are shocked. And his words have made you smile. He likes you……but you can’t. Not now.

————-

The next day you all want to go to the beach together. You go out with your surfboard and go to the beach. Once there, you see the crew. Jj comes up to you.

“Hey, you pretty girl. I have something for you” says JJ as he brings a bouquet of flowers from behind his back. They are red roses. Your favourite flowers. 

“I know these are your favourite flowers so…” he says and gives you the flowers.

“Omg Jj thanks… for what?” you ask in amazement 

“Just because. You deserve it.” says Jj and winks at you. 

Moments like this happened many times over the next few weeks. Jj always brought you something. Whether it was your favourite chocolate, flowers, a bracelet, a note, or just a hug. You can always tell. That he fights for you. 

You’re still seeing each other. But you haven’t had sex since the conversation. And that was a few weeks ago. 

You’ve heard that phrase a lot in the last few weeks:

“We don’t have to have sex for me to enjoy my time with you. Let’s just talk and watch movies or something, I like that better right now." 

Jj is very attentive and always listens to you. But that was also the case before. He was and is always there for you… and you start to worry. 

You are unsure of what you want, how you feel, and what you should do. So you call Kiara to come over. She arrives 20 minutes later and you both sit on your bed talking.

"Hey sweetie, how are you?” Kiara asks as she sits down.

“I’m okay, I guess…” you reply uncertainly.

“What’s bothering you?” Ki asks, looking you in the eye.

“It’s jj… you know he told me he likes me. And that he wants to fight for me. And I admire all that and appreciate it very much. I thought it was just a joke at first, but he’s really serious about it. And I’m starting to think that I like him too. Quite a lot, actually.” Do you say

Only Kiara knows about it. But she doesn’t know that you two had a ‘thing’ together. That you had sex and stuff. Nobody knows that. 

“Oh sweetie… I know. You think I didn’t know that. You’ve always secretly liked him. You always come up to me and tell me how hot he looks and stuff. Maybe you should tell him?” Says Ki

“No.. no. I want to wait. And you won’t tell him either.” you reply

“No no don’t worry Y/N” says Ki

PART3

NO PLAYER PT1 - JJ MAYBANK

Summary:Jj tells you how he feels after seeing you with john b and getting jealous. But you don’t want to get more serious because Jj is known to be shitty with girls.

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

You and Jj keep doing your ‘thing’. The others don’t know about it but they’ve always noticed something with you. Nothing sexual but you are always together somehow.

You always sit together, always laugh together and there are almost no days when you don’t see each other. You are always teasing each other.

Besides, it’s kind of your thing to fight. Just for fun. Kind of wrestling. That’s your thing.

But now you can’t keep your hands off each other, especially in private. You don’t know what it is with you two. Or what it’s going to be. How it’s gonna work out. You’ve never talked about it. 

You’re at the chateau right now. You’re hanging out, having a few beers.

JohnB and Sarah are fighting. For now. They haven’t seen each other in a very, very long time. It’s pretty out of character for them. But oddly, JohnB didn’t really seem like he cared. He seemed more… like he didn’t have a girlfriend. Like he forgot about it for a second. That’s not like him.

But you don’t know anything about it because you just got here.

But you can see that Johnb is weird.

“Hey JB, what’s up? Are you alright?” You ask JohnB as you join him on the couch. The others are in the kitchen.

“Yeah… yeah… I mean I’m fine… I’m fine” he says.

“Okay, no. That was one too many. I know there’s something wrong with you” you say and take his hand.

“You know… Sarah and I had a fight. Or rather, we’re still fighting. All the time I’m thinking: It’s okay and I’m fine. So I try to at least act like I am, but I’m not.” He says and looks down

“I’m so sorry about that… what’s the argument about? What’s the problem?” You ask worriedly

“It’s stupid. It really is. It was about Topper and him still coming to her and still being attached and all that shit.”

“Oh man. That sucks.” You say and hug him.

Jj has been watching you from the kitchen the whole time. He looks very annoyed. But he tries to hold it in.

“Nah let’s forget about it now. Do you want to go out with me for a bit?” He asks and stands up.

“Yeah sure” you say

You go outside and talk a bit. You practise a bit how JohnB could apologise to Sarah.

“Sarah… I’m sorry. I was stupid and didn’t think…. is that good?” JohnB asks. You just laugh.

“That wasn’t even close to enough. What do you think when you see her? Tell me. But tell it to me like I’m Sarah. So you can tell her too. Okay?” You say and smile

“Okay then…. Sarah… you are the most beautiful girl in the world

Meanwhile, Jj stands by the door. He is listening to you. But at the wrong time, of course.

…..You’re so pretty, so sweet, you turn my head. And god you’re so sexy. Um… I love…” says JohnB as Jj runs towards you.

“Hey what the fuck are you doing?!” Says JJ aggressively and pushes JohnB away from you.

“Jj chill it wasn’t like…” you say but are interrupted.

“Oh really? That’s what you’re going with? What the… JohnB what is this?” Jj asks him. Just as JohnB was about to tell the truth to calm Jj down, Jj interrupts him.

“So your little girlfriend dumps you for a while and you go straight for Y/N?” Says Jj and JohnB snaps. That was too much Maybank.

Johnb punches his best friend in the face.

“THINK BEFORE you throw something like that at someone BRO” he says and walks away.

“So you like JohnB… wow okay… that’s cool” jj says to you pissed off

“What? Jj. No! Oh my god we were just practicing. Well. How can I put this. JohnB wants to apologise to Sarah and I wanted to help him. He should practice it on me.” You say and roll your eyes

“Oh…” says Jj

“Yeah… oh… and even if. Like what the. Jj what does it have to do with you if I like someone. There’s nothing emotional about us Jj. We’re not together or anything. Just physically… right?” You say upset

That hurt Jj. Deep in his heart. He knew it but he always hoped you two were a 'thing’. Something that would last. But apparently not. He’s quiet. And his eyes are a little glassy.

“Right. Only physically,” he says, pissed off, and leaves.

“Jj wait. Why is this hitting you so hard?” You ask, turning him towards you by his arm.

“Because… I mean why? Why is it only physical? What’s stopping you from getting more serious?” Jj asks in a broken voice

“Jj I… I didn’t know you thought that but… I can’t. Okay? I can’t” you say

“Why? Tell me.”

“Because I don’t want to get hurt again, okay? Jj you are one of the biggest fuckboys I know. And you know it. You usually fuck a girl and then leave. Not because you’re a shitty person, but because that’s who you are. You don’t need anything serious. And you’ve made that very clear many times.

I mean, the others are already surprised that you can put up with me for so long. You are simply THE player jj. And I can’t do that. I’m too scared.” You say and somehow a stone falls from your heart. But somehow it doesn’t.

Jj stands there. Totally shocked by what you just said.

“That’s what you think of me?” Jj says and tears come to his eyes.

“This is what everyone thinks about you Jj” you say.

Summary: Jj teases you when you are with the others and you decided to pay him back….

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

So you and Jj are… kind of a thing. But also kind of not. You’ve been having sex a lot since the other day. But no one knows. You’re your own little secret. It’s just physical. Nothing emotional or anything. But sometimes it’s hard to keep it all a secret. 

Today you want to go swimming. 

You’re meeting at the chateau. 

“Hey, Jb, how’s it going?” you say as you walk in.

“pretty good. As usual. How about you?” he asks and gives you a hug.

“Me too” you say and put your things down.

You go over to Jj who is sitting on the couch.

“Hey my queen” he says smiling and hugs you.

“So today we’re going swimming?” you ask as Ki and Pobe walk in the door.

“looks like it” says Pobe

“Well, I’m going to go and get changed” you say and disappear into the bathroom. You take off your shorts and top and get out your bikini. You put it on. It is white and quite tight. But you don’t mind. 

“damn. Hola madame” says Jj as you come out of the bathroom. He looks you up and down and stands there with his mouth open. 

You then go to the HMS Pogue.

 You’re on JohnB’s boat and you’re going for a little ride. When you find a place, JohnB attaches the boat and you go swimming.

You then feel a slap on the ass. 

“Jj” you say as you turn around.

“Sorry couldn’t help it” Jj says and smiles at you.

You are about to go into the water when Jj runs up behind you and lifts you over his shoulder.

“Watch out” he shouts and jumps into the water with you. Dumbass.

He can’t keep his eyes off you the whole time.

After a while, everyone goes back up to the boat. You have a few beers and just have fun. 

You sit on Jj’s lap. As always.

“I like your new bikini. It suits you. You look really hot in it.” says jj. 

“Thanks Jay,” you say, looking at the others.

Jj always wants to tease you a bit, he can’t help it.

He runs his hand along the clasp of your bikini top.

“Jj we are not alone here. The others see us,” you whisper nervously.

“I know princess… chill a bit” he says and runs his wet hand further down your body. God, this turns you on. 

He now moves his hand forward to your belly and up to your bikini top. 

“Jj!” you whisper. 

“What? The others won’t notice” he says in your ear.

“Oh yes we do notice” says JohnB and the others nod.

“You guys are unbearable” says Ki.

Jj is always teasing you. You want to get back at him. 

After swimming you go to the wreck. The wreck has long since closed, but Kiara brought you in because her father is the owner. So you are alone there. Sarah has also joined you. 

Ki gets some snacks from the kitchen and takes a pack of cards from the shelf. 

“So guys, up for a game of cards?” Ki asks as she sits down at the table with you. You agree. 

JohnB and Sarah sit on the chairs. Kiara and Pobe each sit at the end of the table, and you and Jj sit on the bench next to each other. 

You play a round of cards. Pobe wins. Of course he does, he is the genius of you all.

You start the next round. You decided to tease Jj a little. You go to his pants with your hand. He looks right at you. With big eyes. But he doesn’t seem to think it’s bad. You move your hand to his dick. You move your hand just the way he likes it. Jj looks at you in surprise and then tries to concentrate on the cards again.

“Jj, it’s your turn” says JohnB. 

“What…oh…yeah yeah sure” he says and lays a card.

“What are you doing?” Jj asks quietly to you 

“I don’t know what you mean J” you reply innocently.

“God…” says Jj

You keep moving your hand in the same motions. Then you put your hand near the zip of his trousers.

“Stop it Y/N please” he whispers to you but you just laugh.

You continue and Jj even has to moan once. The others all just look at him strangely and then continue.

“Listen, you’re sexy and all, but can we do this later?” he says nervously.

“I’m not doing anything Jj” you say provocatively and continue.

You open his trousers and move your hand inside. You start to move your hand up and down his dick. You see how this makes him weak. He asks you to stop but you don’t stop. You notice that he also finds it kind of horny. You move your hand faster and faster but always so that the others don’t notice.

“Fuck” says Jj. 

“What’s going on with you man?” asks Sarah, the others just laugh. 

“Baby I’m about to cum” says Jj quietly to you. He never called you baby before.

You smile and make him come.

“Damn” says Jj.

“That’s what you get for teasing me all the time” you say and smile.

Summary: Jj interrupts you while you are changing your clothes…..

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

Today is a windy day. It stormed yesterday and the Outer Banks is pretty devastated. You and the Pogues spent last night at Sarah’s. She snuck you in because her house is the safest. Whatever. You want to go surfing today because the waves are perfect for it. It was Jj’s idea, of course, but you’re up for it, even if it’s a bit dangerous. You have arrived at the beach.

Everyone is there. Even Sarah. JohnB has persuaded her. After a few laps on the surfboard you get out of the water. Jj follows you.

“Hey what are you doing?” he asks. When you turn around you see him standing there with his surfboard under his arm. In his swimming trunks in his hot body. He runs his hand through his wet hair. Wait, what?

“Hello Y/N is anyone there? The sight is too hot to think straight, right?” he says laughing. 

“You jerk. I was about to go back to the chateau.” you say. 

“Oh okay… I’ll come with you” he says and runs to you and hugs you from behind. 

“Hey guys we’re going back to JohnBs” Jj calls and you leave.

The others call out that they will join you later.

What was going through your mind just now? Jj is your best friend… not your crush. You are even each other’s wingman. Well. 

You’ve arrived at the chateau and you’re going in. You go to JohnB’s room, where your clothes are, to change.

“Privacy please?” you say to jj as you take off your bikini top.

You sit on the bed and look questioningly over at Jj who is leaning against the door frame. He takes off his shirt and sits down next to you.

“What… what are you doing Jj?” you ask in surprise. 

“I want to undress now" 

"I know” he says and looks at you. He bites his lip and looks down your body. He runs his hand along your stomach. 

“But it’s not like I can’t keep you company” he whispers.

He moves his hand further and further down and has now reached your bikini bottoms. You are breathing heavily and his movements make you weak. What is happening right now? He goes further down and puts his hand inside your bikini bottoms. 

“Jj…what…what are you doing” you moan lightly. 

“The others are about to come" 

He now guides his fingers inside you and makes you moan. Then he stops.

"What why…..why do you stop” you ask.

“I mean… You’re right… the pogues are about to come” he says smiling and walks out of the room.

“I’ll kill you Maybank” you say and throw a pillow at him. You only hear him laughing.

In fact, the others arrive a few minutes later, by which time you have changed. You and Jj go out and sit by the hammocks. The others join you.

“So what did you do when we weren’t here?” asks JohnB as he sits down with a beer. 

“Nothing, we were just… talking I guess” says Jj. Jj looks at you and takes your hand. He points to his lap and you sit down on his lap.

As the others talk about the waves and how great the surfing was, Jj whispers something to you. 

“You looked hot in your bikini” he whispers and makes you smile.

“I mean… you looked pretty good too Jay” you say back.

You both just look at each other, not even noticing that the others are no longer talking

“We can hear you.” says ki 

“God it’s like you’re Rose and Jack. So inseparable” says Pobe and everyone laughs. 

Rose and Jack. Yes, that fits somehow.

Summary: you’re on your period and Jj takes care of you

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

You met the Pogues a few weeks ago. Or rather Jj first. And now you and him are inseparable. You’re part of their little crew now.

Jj is your best friend. You are inseparable and do everything together. At first you two didn’t like each other. Or rather you hated each other. But now you are the best friends.

You are not well at all today. You got your period this morning and you have very bad cramps. It’s already evening and you’re sitting in your bed. Suddenly there is a knock at the window.

It’s jj. He often comes to your window in the evening to do something with you, to go for a walk or just to talk. 

You open the window.

“Hey you, do you want to go to the beach for a while? The waves are awesome,” Jj says with a smile.

You and Jj often go surfing at night. It’s kind of become your thing. You love this ‘thing’. Most of the time the sky is pitch black and you can see lots of stars. The moon always shines on the water and glitters so beautifully. Well. 

“What? Are you afraid of losing to me?… or what?” says Jj and nudges you. 

“I don’t know, I don’t think that’s a good idea today Jay” you say and squeeze your eyes shut because you’re having a big cramp right now.

You see that he looks a bit worried and he sits down next to you in bed.

“Hey R what’s up?” he asks worriedly. R is kind of a nickname. The others always call you and Jj Rose and Jack because you are so 'inseparable’. Cheesy shit. But you like it when he calls you that nice. It’s kinda cute.

“Nothing… I just… oh, never mind” you say shyly.

“You know I don’t believe you, right?” he says and looks you in the eye.

“I just got my period this morning and I’m cramping pretty bad…” you say. 

“Well that can be fixed” he says and winks at you. He goes out of your room and gets you something. When he comes back into your room a few minutes later he has a hot water bottle in his hand and also a tray with chocolate and tea. 

“Sooo I have a little warmth for your tummy. Then your favourite chocolate… that’s it, isn’t it? And then some tea. I’d be really good as a boyfriend, wouldn’t I?” he says with a smile. 

“Thank you so much J you are the best” you say and give him a hug

“I know I know. Jk, I’ll do anything for my little rose…” he says and sits down with you again. 

You sit together in bed until late at night and talk, eat and watch a film. Jj doesn’t leave your side.

“Is everything all right with you? Are you feeling better? Or is there anything else I can do?” Jj asks worriedly.

“No Jj everything is fine. You’ve done enough already. Besides, I’m feeling a little better.”

“Always better when you’re here,” you add.

He smiles at you and covers you up. He stays with you all night without going home. He just wants to make sure you’re okay and safe. He always wants that.

Summary: you and Jj are getting along very well. He wants to help you with your fear and so he does. He is always by your side

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

Jj and you are getting along very well now. I think you two just didn’t look at each other properly or only saw each other’s bad sides without really knowing who they were. 

“Hey bro” says JohnB as he sits down next to Jj.

“Hey man” he says

“So you and Y/N seem to be getting along all of a sudden” he says.

“Yeah…” says Jj

“How did it come about. What happened there last week when we were going out on the boat?” asks JohnB

“Nothing… I just realised I never really got to know her” he says.

“But Jay. You’re my best friend. And to be honest I’ve never seen you like when you’re with her. You’ve never been like this…so mean to anyone. Is it possible that you were just being mean to her because you actually like her?” JohnB asks with a smile

“What? Dude no” says Jj 

“Come on Jj I know you” says JohnB and nudges Jj.

“Man no. For real… I mean I honestly didn’t like her…or so I thought. Meanwhile I kinda have a thing for her. I mean she’s really hot. And actually really nice. Maybe I did it unconsciously but I really didn’t like her in the beginning. But I found her interesting all along,” Jj says with a smile.

“I knew it man. Why don’t you tell her?” Says JohnB

“Naaah things are going so well at the moment. I would ruin everything. I’ll just deny it. Like always man. Deny deny deny.” Says Jj laughing

“Well but she’s probably not ready for what’s disguised under my clothes anyway. No one is ready for a bit of Jj” says Jj who is dancing like a stripper and pulling his shirt up. The two just laugh.

“You idiot. So you won’t even try” says JohnB

“sure I will man. If she feels the same then…. Bro she will be mine one day. I’ll make sure of it.” Says Jj laughing

You’re still not good with boats. And not really with the sea either. But Jj always helps you because he’s the only one who knows your whole story. 

“Are you ready?” Jj asks

“Ready for what?” You ask in amazement

“We are going to the beach now. I told you I would make your fears go away. There’s bound to be a boat somewhere on the beach…I’ll help you” he says.

“Oh Jj I don’t think that’s a good idea” you say

“But come on. You wanted to overcome your fears too. Don’t be afraid.” He says and makes a gesture with his face that you should come.

“OK then” you say and stand up. 

You both go to the beach and there is a small boat. It looks a bit like the HMS Pogue. Jj takes your hand and you walk to the water. He pushes the boat a little further out into the water so that it is further away. He goes into the water so that he is up to his thighs in water. 

“Come here. Just to me,” he says.

You go into the water. So far everything is fine, after all you are still in the water with both feet on the ground. That’s totally OK.

“Now come with me onto the boat. I’ll help you” says Jj and sits down on the boat. You follow him and sit down next to him. That still works too.

“Are you okay?” he asks

“Yes…yes I think so” you say. You drive a bit out to sea but not too far. After all, it’s wavy and you shouldn’t put yourself in too much danger. Suddenly a wave comes and pushes the boat to the side. You almost fly out. That’s it for you.

“Jj” you scream and hold on to him.

“I can’t do this, I… I… can we get out quickly?” you say crying and Jj drives back as fast as he can. You sit down on the beach.

“I’m sorry. I’m so stupid. It must sound so crazy that I’m afraid to be on a normal boat,” you say, sobbing.

“Hey, Y/N. It’s all good. Nothing sounds stupid. You have some kind of trauma. That’s normal. I mean it’s not just the boat but you’re also associating bad memories and the last memory of your dad with it. It’s fucking hard, I know. But we can do it,” he says.

“Thanks Jj. you know after everything…. we were kind of enemies and now you help me so much” you say with a smile

“I’ll stay with you Y/N” he says looking into your eyes.

He hugs you and you feel safe. Somehow. It’s funny that you couldn’t even stand each other a week ago.

Here is my MASTERLIST

Thank u sm for reading xx

REQUESTS HERE

Hey guys, so here’s part 2.

If you haven’t readPt1 HERE you can find it!

Summary: after a few more arguments and disputes over truth or dare, you want to go boating. But you can’t and tell Jj your biggest fear, whereupon he tells you his….

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

Jj remains a dick. As always. You don’t really know why you hate each other. Although… somehow you do. He’s so full of himself and such a player. Superficial. 

You’re outside the chateau. It’s already dark and you’re having a drink. Just talking, drinking, having fun.

“Anyone want a beer?” you ask as you grab one.

“Yeah, just give one to everyone” says Pope 

You take five beers and give them to everyone. Except Jjs, which you throw at his feet. 

“So tomorrow we leave on HMS Pogue?” asks Sarah.

“No, Sarah, we’re swimming there, you know?” says Jj wryly.

“Funny” says Sarah

“Yeah, so we’re leaving around noon tomorrow” says JohnB.

“Yeah, I don’t know if I’m coming yet” you say.

“Why is that?” asks Ki

“I don’t know, I’m not that into boating” you say.

“But we need you. Think about it” says Pope.

After about an hour, you’ve all had a few beers. Music is playing, you dance from time to time, it’s actually fun. 

“Anyone up for a round of Truth or Dare?” asks Jj.

“Of course my boy” says JohnB and everyone else just nods.

“So truth or dare Kiara?” asks Jj.

“Dare” she says

“Dance for us” says Jj.

“Typical” you say and roll your eyes

“I better drink” says Kiara laughing

“My turn. I ask you Jay, truth or dare?” asks JohnB

“I’ll say truth” he says

“What’s your problem with Y/N?” asks JohnB

“Dude the game is supposed to be fun” says Jj annoyed

“Answer” says JohnB

“I’m not going to discuss all this right now. Besides, you know” he says

“Oh, actually I don’t know” you say and look at Jj.

“Haven’t I told you often enough” he says and looks at you too

“How about you tell us all. JohnB seems to be interested” you say

“so you just come into our lives. Live with JohnB. Annoy us all. You’re just there all of a sudden and now you think you can be so bitchy to me?” he says.

“I don’t care what people think, I’ll do anything,” you say.

“Oh and what about the fact that you don’t like me because I have money huh?” you say.

“Question answered” says Jj and turns away again.

“Unbelievable” you say

“Okay, Sarah, truth or dare?” asks Pope. 

“Dare” she says

“say one thing that bothers you about Ki” says Pope

“Oh that’s easy. I think you’ll all agree she’s a bit of a bitch sometimes” says Sarah with a laugh.

“hey” says Ki laughing

“Truth or dare Y/N” says Jj

“Dare” you say annoyed

“I dare you to kiss me” he says looking you in the eye

“in your dreams” you say

“Oh what’s wrong miss "I don’t care and I’ll do anything”?“ asks Jj provocatively

"k then” you say and stand up

“Woah” says JohnB from behind 

Jj also stands up and comes closer to you.

You get closer and closer to his face and feel his warm breath on your skin.

“You really thought” you say and walk into the chateau. 

“Bitch” says Jj and sits down again.

————————————————————————————————-

The next day you go out on the boat to try out the camera. 

“Hey guys” says JohnB 

“You coming? We want to go” says Pope while JB, Pope, Sarah and Ki get into the boat.

You stand still. 

“Y/N why don’t you come?” says Jj.

“None of your business” you say

“Okay sorry” he says and continues walking. But then he stops and turns back to you.

“Come on” he says

“I don’t want to” you say a bit scared and Jj notices your voice breaking

“Why?” he asks

“Just because okay?!” you say and sit down. Tears come up your eyes.

“What the fuck Y/N are you okay?” he asks as he walks over to you.

“What do you care?” you say

“I’m not a monster okay?” he says.

“Guys where are you” shouts JohnB

“We’ll be there in 10 minutes. Just wait” calls Jj. You sit down in front of the chateau.

“Why are you staying with me?” you ask, crying.

“I’m not staying with you, I want to know what’s going on and then get you on the fucking boat” says Jj. Typical. 

“I can’t tell you. I’ve never told anyone before” you say.

“Okay so we’re not best friends but I really want to go now so tell me. What could be so bad about a boat huh” he says a little mean. 

“When I was little we went on a boat trip. My dad, my mum and me. My brother and sister weren’t born yet. My dad was driving the boat and it got stormy. The weather got worse and worse and we were all very scared but I was sure my dad would save us. But he didn’t. My dad and my mum had been fighting for weeks before that boat trip. My dad left. He saved himself from the boat and drove away on his jet ski. While we were there alone without knowing how to drive a boat at all. I fell into the water. I almost drowned. My mum tried everything to get me out. I just screamed for my dad all the time but he drove away. My mom made it out. But it was close. A lifeboat came to pick us up. I haven’t been on a boat since. I’m scared.” you say

Jj sits there shocked. His eyes are wide open and he looks at you. There is silence for a moment.

“Wow… Y/N I’m so sorry. I didn’t know that… well, how could I? But that’s really terrible. Sorry you have to deal with something like that” he says.

“Well it doesn’t matter” you say and quickly wipe away your tears. As you stand up Jj pulls you back down by your arm.

“Wait. It does matter. You know, while we’re at it… I’ll tell you something about me. I have problems with my dad too. Well….more than just problems. (Jj begins to stutter) 

My dad doesn’t think much of me. Well… he beats me up every day. Every day anew he beats the shit out of me and insults me. He tells me what a piece of shit I am and that I’m worthless, that he would rather never have had a child and stuff like that.” Jj says and his eyes glaze over as well.

“But it’s okay…I mean I’m lucky to have a dad right?” He says in a broken voice.

“I’m sorry Jj, I didn’t know. All this time I’ve been so mean to you while you have to deal with something like this.” You say

“No, I’m sorry. I was an asshole to you. We don’t have to be best friends… but we don’t have to hate each other in our circumstances, do we?” He says and smiles slightly.

“Yeah right” you say and nod.

“Now come on. We’re going on the boat. You can do this. I’ll help you.” He says and holds out his hand.

That was the first time you looked Jj in the face and liked him. The first time he was nice to you. You were even a bit shocked at how nice you found him. You kind of saw him through different eyes now that you know what’s behind all this. Maybe there is a bloody loving heart behind it?

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

You’ve been living with JohnB for 3 days now and it’s actually really cool here in OuterBanks. It’s so nice of JB to let you stay here and the chateau is really great. The only thing that bugs you is the blond boy. You just can’t stand fuckboys like that. You have already had experiences with them and they were not very good. They are all the same. But he doesn’t like you very much either. Probably because you are a ‘kook’ and he can’t stand that. Anyway.

“Hey JohnB what’s the plan now?” you ask as you all sit in the chateau talking about the royal merchant’s gold.

“We’re going to get that underwater camera. Me and Pope are going to get it. Sarah and Ki you will distract the guard and Jj and Y/N you will keep watch and see if anyone comes” says JohnB.

“What the hell JohnB why with her?” asks Jj

“Come down Maybank” you say

“What’s the big deal?” asks Pope

“Well just the fact that I can’t stand her?” says Jj rolling his eyes.

You just look away, annoyed.

“oh yeah we know that Jj. but chill okay?” says JohnB.

“oh yeah that’s what you say. You don’t have to put up with their bullshit all the time!” says Jj.

“it’s not like it’s an honor to be with you” you say disgusted.

“miss perfect can you please shut the fuck up” says Jj

“Say that again” you say and stand up

“what? Huh? That you are a fucking bitch?” says Jj and stands up too

“Nice to say when you are a little bastard yourself” you say

“OKAY THAT’S ENOUGH” says JohnB

“Sit down. What the hell is wrong with you two man” says JohnB

“It’s gonna be done just like he said, no arguments” says Kiara.

You absolutely can’t stand JJ. The way he acts, the way he talks…just everything.

So it’s evening and you’re at the junkyard to get the camera.

“So we’re going to split up now. Everybody knows what they have to do?” says JohnB

You all just nod.

Jj and you go to your positions. Jj takes out a joint and smokes it.

You roll your eyes.

“What?” he says

“Nothing” you say and look away

“Am I disturbing you?” he asks and comes closer

“Can you smoke your fucking weed somewhere else and not blow it right in my face thank you” you say

“Ugh you are exhausting” he says and walks a few steps away

Jj throws the joint on the ground and crushes it with his foot.

“Oh wow good for the environment” you say

“Girl shut up” he says

“If you weren’t smoking your cheap-ass weed in here, I would” you say.

“My cheap-ass weed?!” he says.

“Yeah, that’s it” you say annoyed.

“Oh sorry miss PERFECT . Then I will smoke my cheap stuff somewhere else soon. Who should I turn to for better weed? You?” he says and comes closer

“ugh Jj I don’t care go and die from it” you say even if you don’t mean it exactly.

“sorry i can’t afford expensive weed like you kooks” he says

“just shut the fuck up” you say

“what did you say princess?” he says

“SHUT UP JJ” you say.

“SORRY COULDN’T HEAR YOU. I think my ears are too bad for that” he says

“Oh my god just fuck you” you say.

While you were arguing a man walked right in to Pope and JohnB because you didn’t notice him because you were arguing so much.

JohnB and Pope come running towards you.

“Come on, let’s get out of here. COME ON!” yells Pope and you all run back to the chateau. Out of breath you arrive.

“WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!” says JohnB, looking at the two of you.

“What man” says Jj

“A MAN RAN IN. YOU SHOULD LOOK OUT!” says Pope.

“You had ONE job” adds Ki.

“She distracted me with her bullshit lines” says Jj.

“I distracted YOU. Oh yeah I’m the one who talked about me like I was from another galaxy right?” you say.

“STOP. Because of your bullshit fights JB and I almost got caught” says Pope.

“Yeah, sort your shit out” says Sarah and they all go into the chateau. You and Jj stand out there.

——————————————————————————————-

Now guys thank u sm for reading.

Here you can find Part2andPart3

And ofc my MASTERLIST

Summary: you’re new to the obx and run into the blonde boy at a shop and he tries to flirt w/y. You two instantly don’t like e/o and then on top of that you’re staying at John b’s for a while bc your parents are out of town and you know John b from your past.

Also guys requests are always open, so just comment them HERE or text me xx

Your name is Y/N. You are new in town. In the Outer Banks.

Your mother and father are separated because your father left when you were only 3 years old. You have two brothers and sisters. Your little brother, Chris, is 5 years old and your little sister, Lara, is 3.5 years old.

You live with your mother and stepfather, Dan. He is definitely not the best stepfather you could wish for. But oh well. You moved to the Outer Banks yesterday. And you have no idea how good this town is gonna be for you.

You’ve been clearing out your stuff all day and you want to unwind a little. You go downtown, to the newsstand, and get some cigarettes. You don’t really smoke because you’ve had bad experiences with drugs, but right now you need it badly, especially because your stepfather and your mother are fighting all day again.

“A pack of cigarettes, please,” you say to the man at the counter and give him the 8 dollars.

You walk out of the shop and in all the stress you run into a guy.

“Whoa a little fast on the road today?” the guy says and looks at you.

“If you weren’t standing in the way I wouldn’t have run into you man” you say annoyed and want to keep going

“You must be having a stressful day, huh? I know that… It’s always good to cool off with a cigarette” he says laughing. What a player, you think to yourself and go on.

“Wait, wait, can’t I even know your name?” he asks.

“Nope” you say and give him the middle finger as you walk away.

A stressful day, and then on top of that some weird guy comes and flirts with you. Great city.

But you can’t really get him out of your head, this boy. He has blond hair, was wearing a grey tank top and shorts. He smelled like grass, but that doesn’t bother you. Whatever. Just a typical wannabe fuck boy, you think to yourself.

Later in the day you want to look around a bit. You decide to go to the beach. It’s actually really nice here, you think to yourself. You walk along the beach and see quite a few people. It looks like a party or something. It looks fun, but it’s not really something you want to do right now. You are about to turn back and someone is coming towards you.

“Hey, we’ve met before, right?” someone says. It’s the blond boy. He looks a bit drunk and has a red cup in his hand. It’s probably beer.

You give him a questioning look and turn around again. But he is walking with you.

“The kiosk? Today at noon. Don’t you remember?” he asks.

“Oh yeah, sure. How could I forget the blond boy from the kiosk who talked to me so nicely?” you say ironically.

“Wowowow you were the one who was so rude to me” he says

“Yeah I was. Entitled” you say and stop.

“Oh my god okay then. Never seen you here before.” he says

“moved here yesterday. Moved so many times in my life that I don’t really care anymore.” you admit

“I can tell you’re gonna love the Outer Banks. I’m Jj. May I know your name now?” he asks.

“Yeah I don’t mind. I am Y/N. Nice to meet you Jj.” you say

Then there is a group of people walking towards you.

There are four people.

“Hey Jay. Who’s this here? New hookup?” A brunette girl asks while rolling his eyes.

“Ugh definitely not” you say, disgusted, because Jj already looked like he was a player and it looks like he actually is.

“Wait…. Y/N?” Asks a brown haired boy.

“JohnB? No way” you say.

“Wait… you know each other?” Asks a blonde girl while you hug JB.

“Yeah babe we always played together when we were children and our parents are friends.” Says JohnB

“This is my girlfriend, Sarah. This right here is Kiara aka Ki and the boy with the cap here is Pope.” Says JohnB

They all look very nice actually and they all greet you very nicely.

“So how do you two know each other?” asks JohnB.

“He tried to flirt with me at the kiosk today,” you say with a smile.

“Yeah, the way you’re going I shouldn’t have done that. But you liked it anyway” he says.

“you’re not as great as you think you are man” you say back and look at him.

The others laugh.

“Oh remember you’re a tough woman then. Might be the perfect match for you Jj, right?” says JohnB laughing.

“No way” you say and leave.

“Wait… if you’re leaving so early, do you want to go boating with us tomorrow? We’ll pick you up” JB says as he follows you.

“No… I would rather go to the beach” you say

“Then we’ll do that” JohnB says

“JohnB? I have a question and its totally fine if you say no but my mother is away for a few weeks and I really don’t want to live with my stepfather the next weeks… Can I live at yours just for like 3 weeks?” You ask

“Of course you can. But Jj kinda lives there too… Just so that you know” says Johnb

“Ugh great… No but really thank you so much!” You say, hug him and go home.

Hey guys, so thank you for reading… next parts are up on my channel so I’d be so happy for a share or a like :)

Also requests are always open!!

Here is my MASTERLIST

Mayday

Based On: Outer Banks

Characters: JJ x Reader, Kie, John B, Sarah, Pope

Warnings: Language

w/c:1.7 k 

Request ( @eatingchocolatecroissants):Hey! I was wondering or you could do an outer banks imagine where like in season one the pogues leave kie, Sarah and reader on a boat, and the reader is the one getting stung by a jellyfish. The night goes on and she starts having an allergic reaction the jellyfish sting and her breathing starts to go bad and all dizzy. The girls have to call a mayday. And the sheriff/ambulance boat? Comes and gets her or the pogues come back the next morning and she is not well at all. Then hospital. The pogues feel really bad Maybe reader x jj?

Thank you you’re so sweet!! <3 so sorry this took me so long to write, hope you like it !

“Y/N!" 

"Hmm,” you looked up from your spot on the floor, bored while Kie was on her knees inspecting the engine that JJ and John B had said wasn’t working.

“They’re screwing with us,” she sat up, brushing her hair out of her face with an unamused look, “There’s nothing wrong with the spark plugs- there are no spark plugs,”

“JJ! John B! What the hell?” you spin around to look for the boys, but they were already in the water swimming towards the HMS Pogue with Pope already running the engine.

“Sayonara!” John B gave the two of you a wave as Pope pulled him and JJ on board. 

“Oh, you son of a…” you started tugging at your shirt, ready to swim after the boys in your anger.

“What was that?”

You stopped what you were doing and glanced at Kie, waiting for an explanation. That’s when you heard it.

“John B! John B, let me out!” Sarah’s voice was muffled as she screamed for him below deck, “This isn’t funny anymore- open it!”

“You’ve gotta be kidding me,”

You unlatched the door leading to the deck below, coming face to face with a confused Sarah, “What the hell?” she pulled herself out, scanning the water for John B, “You asshole!” she screamed as the boys grinned back at her. 

“Get your asses back here!” Kie demanded.

John B shook his head, “We can’t, not until you guys figure it out!”

“See y'all later!” Pope waved as he drove the boat off, leaving the three of you bitter and stranded. 

“You can’t just leave!”

“JJ, you better turn that boat around or so help me…!” you trailed off, fuming as they drove off too far to hear your threats. 

“When they come back, I’m going to kill them,” Kie announced, her back sliding against the side of the boat as she took a seat and accepted that you were stranded. 

“What the hell- ugh!” Sarah yelled in frustration, turning back around to face you and Kie, “This is ridiculous!”

“God, I can’t with you, Sarah,” You rolled your eyes, pulling off your t-shirt and shorts, leaving you in your bathing suit.

“What the hell are you doing?”

“Leaving,” you said simply. 

Kie stood up from where she had been sulking, “Y/N, don’t be dumb,” she said, her voice irritated, “Look at the weeds- there’s going to be jellyfish,”

“Honestly,” you said, kicking off your shoes, “I’d rather be stung than stay on this boat with Ms. Kook Princess over there,” You turned on your heel and dove off the side of the boat, determined to swim off.

“Where are you even going to go?” Sarah scoffed from the boat, “It’s miles to the shore,”

You ignored her and kept your head down as you continued swimming. 

Sarah rolled her eyes and sat down on the deck, ready to wait in silence for however long it took for the boys to return. Kie made a point to sit on the opposite side of the boat, glaring at Sarah as she did. 

“Oh shit!”

Kie and Sarah both jumped up at the sound of your cry of pain, “Y/N?” Kie called out, worry evident in her voice as she leaned off the side of the boat to get a good look. 

“Shit,” you doggy-paddled back to the boat. If your side hadn’t been in so much pain, you would have been too embarrassed to turn back from your swim. 

“Did you get stung?” Sarah asked, leaning over the deck to watch as you heaved yourself back onto the boat.

“Obviously,” Kie huffed under her breath, offering a hand to help you up.

You rolled onto your back, gasping for air and wincing at the pain, “How bad is it?” you asked through gritted teeth.

Kie did little to hide the concerned look on her face. The entire right side of your abdomen was red and inflamed from the sting. It looked much worse than any other jellyfish sting she had seen before, “I’m not gonna lie, it looks kinda bad. Have you been stung before?”

You tossed your head back onto the deck, groaning slightly at the burning sensation that felt like it was getting worse by the second, “Nope.”

“Do you want me to pee on it?” Sarah offered.

You and Kie looked up at Sarah simultaneously, giving her a glare. “That’s for a stingray, you dumbass,”

Sarah raised her hands in surrender with an eye roll, “Sorry, I was just trying to help,”

You winced, trying to breathe through the pain. Suddenly becoming aware that it was getting more and more difficult to take a solid breath. “Uh, guys?” Panic rose in your voice as you realized it was getting pretty hard to breathe, “I-I think I’m having some kind of reaction or something,”

Kie furrowed her brows, taking a closer look at your face, “Oh God… I think your face is swelling up. Maybe you’re allergic- Sarah! Sarah Quick, get the emergency radio and call for help!”

“Is she gonna be okay?” Sarah asked, her voice rising as the situation got more serious by the second.

“I don’t know, just call for help!” Kie demanded, waving Sarah away to go get help.

“It’s fine, Kie… I’m fine,” you sneezed out, still struggling to catch your breath as the pain grew, “I’m gonna be fine,”

Kiara laughed nervously, “You’re the one who’s hurt. I’m pretty sure I’m supposed to be the one comforting you, not the other way around,”

-

The boys were only a few minutes behind your arrival at the hospital. Kie had used a phone on the paramedic’s boat to call John B to tell him and the others what had happened to you… as well as chew them out for being to blame for the entire situation in the first place. 

The five sat outside your room, anxiously waiting for any news about how you were doing. Jj had his head in his hands, his leg bouncing nervously. 

“Hey,” Kie placed a hand on his back to comfort him, “I think she’s gonna be alright, it was scary for a minute, but she’s here now, and the doctors will be able to fix it,”

JJ looked up, eyes blurry and red from crying, “This is all my fault. I-I never should have suggested leaving you guys on the boat,” he said, running a hand through his disheveled hair.

“J, this isn’t your fault. You guys just wanted us to get along,” Kie assured. 

JJ opened his mouth to speak but quickly shut it when a doctor walked out of your room, “Are you Y/N’s friends?” she continued as they nodded, “Well, she’s pretty sore from the sting, but she’s gonna be fine,” she smiled, gesturing toward the door, “You all are welcome to go see her if you’d like,”

Kie was first to the door, JJ and the others only steps behind, “Y/N?”

You looked up from the hospital bed, grinning when you saw your friends crowding the doorway, “Hi guys. Are you gonna come inside or…”

Kie laughed slightly, running toward you and nearly jumping on top of you as she hugged you. The rest of your friends were quick to follow, nearly dogpiled on top of you as they asked you a million questions at once.

“Are you okay?” “Does it still hurt?” “Is it gonna scar?” “We were so worried,”

“Yeah,” you winced, “It definitely still hurts- maybe you can hug me later?”

“Oh, shit-” they nearly jumped off of you, spewing out “sorrys” as they crowded around your bed instead. 

“Well, good news… I’m totally fine, and they don’t think it’s gonna scar. Bad news… I can’t swim with jellyfish anymore,”

“I’m glad you’re okay,” Sarah smiled and slightly squeezed your arm. 

You thanked her, feeling a little less inclined to hate her at the present moment.

“Anybody else starving?” John B interjected, “I say we go pick up some food from The Wreck. Then we can bring it back and eat with Y/N,”

“I’m starved,” Kie admitted.

“Sounds good to me,” you agreed.

“Me and Sarah will go! Be back in like half an hour, tops,” John B promised, placing a kiss on top of your head before walking out.

“I’ll come too,” Kie offered, giving you one final hug that was more gentle this time and following them. 

“Me too!” Pope was close behind, stopping in the doorway to look at you before he left, “Thank God you’re okay, Y/N, we were so worried about you,” Pope said, giving you a small smile, “Some of us maybe a little more worried than others…” his eyes fell on JJ before he disappeared from the doorway, leaving you and the blonde boy alone. 

You glanced up at JJ, finally getting a real look at him after the chaos the pogues had brought into your room. His eyes were red, and he had clearly been crying recently, “J… JJ, what’s wrong?” you grabbed his hand, pulling him down so he was sitting on the edge of your bed.

He looked away from you, fresh tears pricking his eyes, “This is my fault,” he shook his head, his eyes facing the ground, “This was my idea- it was so stupid. I shouldn’t have left you out there. I’m so sorry,”

“JJ,” your eyes softened, and you tightened your hold on his hand, “JJ, look at me….” He finally looked up, regret and pain filling his blue eyes. “This wasn’t your fault at all hell, it was a good idea. The three of us were being immature,”

“No,” he shook his head, “It is my fault, if I had just-”

“J, stop. Please. I’m going to be perfectly fine,” you promised, “Please don’t blame yourself, you were just trying to help. Plus, Kie told me I was gonna get stung, I was the one who was too stubborn to listen,” you stifled a small laugh, “I’m surprised she didn’t tell me ‘I told you so’ yet,”

JJ didn’t laugh at your attempt to lighten the mood, “Y/N-”

“Nope. No more,” you said simply, pulling back the covers of your bed and patting the space next to you, “Get in. We’re watching a movie until they get back,”

“Y/N-”

“Nope,” you popped the “p” this time and shook your head, “I’m the one in the hospital, that means you’ve gotta do what I say,” you grinned as he crawled in bed next to you. You wrapped your arm around him, pulling him close and placing a kiss on his forehead. “Now,” you grabbed the remote from the table next to you, “What should we watch?”

OBX MASTERLIST / message me to join the OBX taglist !

inspired by this gif because it literally lives rent free in my mind every second of every day. // pretty please DON’T steal my work it’s literally not cool- also i would LOVE if you left some feedback ! thank u and hope u guys enjoy :))

“My God Y/N, do you ever just shut the fuck up?” Rafe groaned, whipping his head around to you, “Even if you think you’re Kook Princess, no one gives a shit what you wear tonight- we’re literally going to the boneyard,”

You took a breath, at your breaking point for Rafe’s snarky comments and ready to really give him a piece of your mind. 

Sarah snapped at her brother before you had the chance, “Maybe if you had some friends you wouldn’t spend all day at home eavesdropping on our conversations that don’t concern you.”

“It’s not exactly eavesdropping when your voice is louder than the fucking TV,” Rafe complained, turning up the volume on the speakers even louder and kicking his feet up on the couch. 

Sarah glared at him, but decided it wasn’t worth it to drag it out with her brother, “Let’s just go upstairs,” she mumbled, leading the way. 

Hours later (and after some serious discussions about outfit choices) you and Sarah headed back downstairs excited about the evening ahead of you. Sarah opened her phone, sending John B a text that the two of you were about to leave the house.

“Rafe! Are you ready to go?” You yelled his name again when you got no response… then one more time for the sole purpose of pissing him off.

“Y/N,” he cursed, rounding the corner and appearing unnecessarily close to you, “I heard you the first time, no need to scream 20 times,” he snapped, glaring at you. 

Your breath caught in your throat as his warm breath fanned across your face as he spoke from merely inches from you. He paused, undoubtedly noticing the tension as well. Suddenly he stepped away, snatching his truck keys off the counter and storming outside, “Now let’s go before I change my mind and leave you two here,”

What the hell was that? Your mind was reeling, but there wasn’t time for that. You grabbed Sarah’s arm, who was still messaging John B, and quickly followed him outside, knowing damn well he would actually leave the two of you. You and Sarah climbed into the back seat and Rafe turned over the engine, music blasting.

“Is John B there yet?”

Sarah nodded, “They just got there,”

“Is JJ-”

“He told me to tell you JJ was gonna be there, yes,” Sarah stifled a laugh at your eagerness to know if the blonde boy would be coming to the party tonight. 

Suddenly Rafe turned the music down, “Are you guys talking about those low lifes again?” He snarled, glaring at the two of you from the rearview mirror, “Those pogues are good for nothing- how do you two not get that?” He exasperated, putting two fingers to his temple as he spoke. 

“Oh come on Rafe,” you scoffed, “We’re no better than them, they-”

“No better than them?” Rafe repeated your statement with wide eyes, shaking his head, “They are pogues.” He deadpanned, “I better not see either of you around Maybank or Routledge tonight, you’re too good for them,” He added that last part under his breath, but you still managed to make out his words. 

“Or what, Rafe?” Sarah raised a brow as her brother pulled into the dirt lot behind the Boneyard. 

You and Sarah jumped out, still rolling your eyes at Rafe’s ridiculous and controlling threats. Rafe was out of the truck seconds behind you, forcefully stepping in front of the two of you before you could walk away.

“I swear, if I see you around those pogues,” He stood menacingly above you and Sarah, glaring between you as he spoke, “There’s gonna be trouble.” He turned on his heel and stalked toward the crowds of people already intoxicated and enjoying the party. 

You and Sarah simeotaneously flashed your middle fingers to his back, “Asshole,”

“For real,” you agreed, “I know he’s your brother and all but man, he can sure be a douche,”

“Sarah!” 

Both of you turned heads at the sound of her name being called, quickly spotting John B. Her face lit up and you both walked over to him, joining the rest of the pogues. 

You flashed a wave at John B, grinning when you found Kiara in the crowd, “Kie!” you exclaimed, pulling her into a hug. 

“Y/N,” she hugged you tightly, “You look like you’re in need of a drink,” 

“Always.”

She laughed, grabbing your hand and pulling you toward the keg. You grabbed a blue solo cup from the stack on the table and let Kie fill your cup, scanning the crowd around you for a certain blonde boy.

Kie playfully glared at you, “Already looking for him? What, am I not good enough?”

You quickly put your drink to your lips, hiding the blush that was forming on your cheeks, “What? No. I-”

She waved it off, “Yeah, yeah… well he’s already asked me like four times if you were coming tonight, so I’m sure he’ll appear up soon, then you two can make love,”

“Kiara!” You grimace and she laughed at the reaction she got from you.

“I’m kidding! I’m kidding! Well, unless…”

You half-heartedly smacked her on the arm for that, “Kie I swear if you don’t-”

“Speak of the devil,” Kie grinned, nodding toward the boy who was making his way toward you. 

“Y/N!” Before you could prepare yourself JJ had embraced you in a huge hug, lifting you a few inches off the ground. 

“Well, hello to you too,” you laughed, smiling up at him as he let you go.

He looked at the cup in your hand, “One beer? Is that all you’ve had?” He wrapped his arm around your shoulder, jokingly giving you a hard time, “You’ve got some catching up to do. Lucky for you, I do happen to be a connoisseur in the world of illegal substances,” He waved his hand dramatically as he spoke and you couldn’t help but laugh at his antics, “Could I interest you in a shot?”

You rolled your eyes playfully, “I would be honored,” 

JJ grabbed your cup, snatching the bottle sitting on the table and taking his best guess measuring a shot as he poured. He handed it back to you, taking a cup for himself and doing the same. 

You grimaced, looking down at your drink and catching a whiff of the smell that burned your nose, “Ugh, that’s nasty,”

JJ merely grinned, tapping the plastic rim to yours, “Cheers!”

You winced, forcing the burning liquid down your throat as JJ downed it with ease. 

“You gonna be alright Y/N?” he joked. 

You narrowed your eyes, “Pour me another,” holding your cup out to him once again. He didn’t think twice, giving you what you wanted and pouring himself another shot in the process, “Cheers,” you grinned, tapping your cup to his once more, this time your drink going down much more easily. 

“Wanna dance?” JJ tossed his cup into the bag labeled trash and you followed suit, nodding at his invitation. He grabbed your hand, pulling you away from the crowd and twirling you around. 

Dancing with JJ was a blur, your intoxication adding fuel to the strong chemistry between the two of you. JJ was everything you wanted in a guy- sweet, charming, funny, and he could take a joke. Of course, it also helped that Sarah just happened to be hitting it off with his best friend. How could you not think about the possibility? But your time with JJ secured the way you felt even more, he was perfect. 

Suddenly, his hand was on your neck, fingers playing in your hair. You could feel your face growing warm- was it the alcohol or the butterflies you got from his touch? JJ’s eyes softened, asking you silently if he could kiss you. You leaned forward in response, pulling him into you. JJ’s other hand was quickly on the small of your back, deepening the kiss between you.

You felt his breath against your cheek as he pulled away, a grin splayed across his face, “I’ve been wanting to do that since, like, forever.”

You smiled, shaking your head softly, “Well it took you long enough,”

He leaned forward, his tongue making its way into your mouth as he kissed you again. This was everything you imagined it to be- JJ Maybank was everything you wanted. Your hands made your way to the nape of his neck, gently grabbing at his blonde hair. The longer you kissed, the more confident JJ got. His lips slowly trailed down your jawline, making his way down your neck as you tossed your head back, enjoying every second. 

You weren’t sure how long you and JJ had made out, but you did know how much you enjoyed it. He had mentioned something about getting his blunt from Pope, suggesting that the two of you went and chill by the water for a bit. You were more than happy to spend more time with him, offering to get more drinks. 

You reached down, filling your cup once again, still on cloud nine from your time with JJ. Already thinking about what could happen next between the two of you. 

With your cup full, you stood up straight, turning but immediately running into someone behind you, “Shit!” You hissed as your beer was crushed up against your chest, soaking your shirt, “Dude, what the hell…” You trailed off, your anger growing when you recognized that it was Rafe who had been in your way.

“Are you kidding me, Y/N?!” He fumed, looking down at his white polo that was now drenched in beer, “Watch where you’re fucking going!”

“Well maybe don’t stand an inch behind me- this is your fault,” you snapped, throwing the plastic cup against his chest in your anger. 

“Real mature, Y/N,” he narrowed his eyes at you, “You’re lucky I have an extra shirt in my truck,” 

“What about me?” 

He raised his eyebrows, “What about you?” he shrugged, “Maybe if you plan on spilling shit all over yourself, you should bring a change of clothes,”

“Screw you Rafe,” you rolled your eyes, over his attitude, “Come on, you’ve gotta have a sweatshirt or something in your truck that I can wear,”

“Not when you’re being such a bitch,”

You groaned, crossing your arms over your body to shield yourself from the wind that was making you freeze, “Rafe, please- I’m soaked!”

“Please… what?” he taunted, reveling in the fact that he was making you work for it.

You wanted to punch him so badly, “Rafe. Can I please borrow a sweatshirt- please.” If looks could kill, Rafe would be dead by the glare you were sending him. 

He gave you a tight lipped smile, “Sure- but not sure if my sweatshirt is going to live up to the standards of Kook Princessfashion,”

You didn’t engage with his dig, biting your tongue as you followed him to his truck. He grabbed the collar of his shirt, easily pulling it over his head as he opened the passenger door of his truck and tossed it inside. He ducked inside, tossing you a black sweatshirt with such force it nearly hit you in the face. He turned back towards you, raising a brow as he pulled a new shirt over his head, “You’re staring,”

You looked to the side, rolling your eyes. Yes, yes you were staring. It was hard not to when he was standing shirtless in front of you and looking as jacked as ever. You hesitated, glancing down at the tank top that was sticking to your body and reeked of beer, questioning if getting undressed in front of the eldest Cameron was something you really wanted to do. 

Screw it. 

You pulled off your top and tossed it into the truck, keeping eye contact with Rafe as you stood there for a second, just in your bra, “You’re staring.” You mocked.

“Yeah, I am,” he said without missing a beat, “You got great tits,”

“Wow, you sure do know how to make a woman feel special,” you said dryly, your voice dripping with sarcasm.

An awkward silence fell between you. Rafe opened his mouth like he wanted to say something, quickly closing it before he got the words out. 

“What?”

He hesitated. “What the hell were you doing tonight?” He finally blurted out.

You frowned, “I think I’m gonna need you to be a little more clear than that,”

“Maybank,” he nearly spat as he said the name, “What the hell were you doing with Maybank?”

“Oh my god Rafe,” you groaned and tossed your head back in frustration, “Would it kill you to just let it go?” 

“Would it kill you to stop embarrassing yourself by surrounding yourselves with pogues?” he shot back, “We’re better than them. Always have been and always will be,”

“Rafe, you’re insufferable, you know that?!” You finally snapped, “You bitch, and complain, and shit on everyone and everything around you- and you know what? People are sick of it. You think you’re so special because of your daddy’s money?” You tilted your head, glare hardening as you let yourself unleash what you had been holding in for weeks. “What are you without Ward, Rafe? Nothing- you’re nothing, and you know that just as much as everyone else on this damn island does,”

His jaw hardened and he shook his head slightly, nostrils flared as he scowled at you. “You talk so fucking much Y/N,” he growled, taking a step closer to you, “What the hell does it take to get you to shut up?” 

Instinctively you backed away, heart dropping when your back pressed up against the truck. Rafe was inches from your face, agan you could feel his hot breath fanning across your face. The tension between you so thick it felt hard to breathe. 

“What the hell does it take to get you to not be such an asshole?” you countered, doing your best to hold your ground, but feeling yourself falter as he got impossibly closer.

“I hate you,” his breath was hot against your skin, and his words seemed contradictory as he leaned in closer, lips nearly touching yours. 

“I hate you more.”

Before you could register what was happening, his fingers were in your hair and lips were pressing up to yours. As if on instinct, your hands found their way to his neck, deepening the kiss. 

You closed your eyes, hating how good this felt. 

Rafe pulled you closer, his kisses nearly desperate and setting your skin on fire. He placed kisses down your neck, you’re heart racing at his touch. Your thoughts of JJ were gone as you let yourself enjoy Rafe’s touch, seemingly forgetting of the pogue who had just been in Rafe’s position. 

“Shit,” you frantically shoved Rafe off of you when you heard your phone ringing, snapping back into reality. You pulled it from you pocket, looking down to see it was Sarah calling you, “It’s Sarah. Oh god. We shouldn’t have…” You ran your hands through your hair, trying to compose your thoughts, “That was-”

“Good?” He flashed a cocky grin. 

“Not what I was going to say,” you rolled your eyes, suddenly very aware that you still didn’t have a shirt on. You ignored your flushed face, pulling his sweatshirt over your head. Of course it had to be his sweatshirt. “But yes. It was good,” you finally admitted, too embarrassed to look him in the eyes, “But this can never happen again- god, if Sarah found out,”

“She doesn’t have to,” he said with a shrug.

You swallowed, letting his offer hang in silence, hating that you were racing with excitement at the thought of this happening again.

Rafe ran his tongue across the inside of his bottom lip, knowing you were contemplating his words. He broke the silence before you could, “Better get back to your pogue boyfriend before he comes looking you,”

“He’s not-” you stopped mid sentence, horrified that you were about to clarify that JJ was not in fact your boyfriend.

“Make sure you think of me next time you start macking on him,” He gave you a wink and started walking back toward the Boneyard.

“Rafe?” He glanced back to look at you as you spoke, “I still hate you.”

He smirked, shaking his head slightly, “And I still wish you’d shut the hell up.”

I Can Handle my Alcohol

Based On: Outer Banks

Characters: JJ x Reader (kinda), John B, Pope, Kie, Sarah

Warnings: n/a

w/c: 800ish

Summary:JJ has a little too much to drink and needs a little taking care of.

“Y/NNN!”

You dropped your head in defeat as John B screamed your name as he ran past you. “And I think that’s my que to leave,” you offered the group of girls you had befriended a tight-lipped smile. 

They exchanged odd looks as you took off after your best friend. You didn’t manage to catch up to him until you made it to the van where Pope, JJ, and John B were already inside. You climbed in the back, taking your usual spot next to JJ.  

“What happened?” You asked, slightly out of breath, “Did you guys get into it with Rafe and Top again or…”

“No,” John B snapped, “And if we had, they would have been the ones to start it-”

Pope cut him off before he had the chance to start on a never-ending rant about the Kooks, “It’s JJ,” he nodded toward the boy next to you, giving you a look.

You turned, finally getting a real look at him and just now realizing how uncharacteristically quiet he had been. His face was flushed and his  eyes were partially closed, “Good god,” You muttered, “Somebody had wayyy too much to drink tonight,” You looked over at Pope stifling a laugh, “I didn’t know it was possible for him to drink too much-”

“I am perfectly fine, thank you for asking,” JJ’s words slurred and his head bobbed up to look at you, “I can handle my alcohol,”

You sighed as his head slumped to the side, resting against your shoulder, “I don’t think I’ve ever seen him like this. I swear if he yacks on me-”

As if he was waiting for you to say something, JJ lurched forward and threw up his stomach contents all over your sneakers and the van floor. 

“Oh come on man!” “Not in my car, dude!”

“Oh god-JJ,” you covered your mouth, holding back the urge to puke, “These were new shoes,” 

Suddenly the van’s back door slid open again, this time revealing Kie and Sarah, “What did we miss-” Kie stopped mid-sentence when she saw the vomit, “Oh hell no.”

Sarah gagged and turned away, shaking her head, “We’re gonna walk home,” She quickly decided, Kie eagerly nodded in agreement. 

“Wow thanks guys,” you said sarcastically as the two slowly backed away from the van, “So helpful.”

“Sorry, I just remembered we have this thing that we said we’d do…” Kie lied and gave you a small smile before she and Sarah sped away and back toward the party. 

“You guys suck,” John B muttered, turning over the engine and driving to the chateau. 

You groaned looking down at the mess on your shoes, but then snapped out of it, remembering how sick the boy next to you was. “JJ?” you said softly, gently grabbing his face so he’d look at you, “You okay now?”

He blinked, “Think so,” he slurred, “S-sorry about the shoes,”

“Its okay- but I’m definitely going to make you wash them when your hangover wears off-”

“I do not get hungover,” he mumbled, “I am JJ Maybank. I can handle-”

“Yes. Yes, you can handle your alcohol- you’ve mentioned it,” you held back another laugh, shaking at his stubbornness, “We’ll see about that tomorrow.”

John B peeled into the front yard and took the keys out of the ignition.

“JJ, come on,” you nudged him slightly and followed Pope out of the van, extending your hand out to JJ. It took him a few seconds, but he finally grabbed hold and stumbled out towards you and Pope. He leaned forward into you, nearly knocking you over with his weight. “Woah, there JJ,” 

Pope managed to grab one of JJ’s arms to take some of the weight and you put his other arm around your shoulder, “Come on J, let’s get you inside,”

You and Pope managed to practically drag JJ inside, you made sure to kick off your ruined sneakers before getting indoors, “Do you need to yack again?” You looked toward the blonde boy, figuring getting the remainder of the alcohol in his system out was the best decision.

He shrugged in response, but you nodded to Pope in the direction of the bathroom. The two of you slowly lowered JJ to the ground, who was quick to lunge for the toilet and finish getting the liquor out of his system. 

The color in Pope’s face drained at the sight and he decided to head outside with John B. 

“Y/N?” JJ groaned, still leaned over the bowl, “I don’t feel very good,”

“Really?” you raised a brow and rubbed his back, “I never would’ve guessed,”

“Y/N?” 

“What’s up J?”

“Thank you,” he mumbled, sitting up.

“For what?” you furrowed your brows at his words.

“For always being here for me,”

You smiled, “Of course JJ, always.” Your heart fluttered at his sweet words, “Alright, let’s get you in bed, huh?”

He nodded weakly and you wrapped an arm around him, helping him stand up and get his bearings. He wrapped his arm tightly around you and stumbled toward the guest room, you helped keep him upright. The moment you stepped inside JJ flopped forward onto the bed, taking you with him from his hold on your waist.

“JJ?!” Your words came out muffled by the pillows and blankets you were lying face down in. He only groaned and you sighed in defeat, pinned under his arm. Guess you were spending your night with JJ- and not in a way you had ever anticipated.
