.𖥔 ݁ ˖ ✦ ‧₊˚ ⋅ being stranded in an island sounded terrifying before, but now that you're actually experiencing it, it doesn't seem so bad.

you looked at it from the positive perspective. you got to avoid your questionable family situation, the chaos that followed the pogues everywhere, the cops and bla bla. it was a nice piece of mind after being on the run for so long.

I mean, it wasn't the greatest. you had to eat fish and coconut almost every night, lack of materials for personal hygiene, and lack of bathrooms... it was sickening the amount of times you had bad hair days because of the ocean's water, and it definitely tasted too salty.

but you could look over all this, because you had the people you love most with you on the island. it made it all slightly more bearable and less horrid.

it was nighttime, you and JJ sat up on the cliff as you stared down the ocean, both of you had coconuts in your hands with some moonshine pope and cleo created, pretty disgusting but it did the job. you sipped out of it with a sour expression as JJ chuckled at you. you were having some kind of a deep coversation when you decided to pester him on his love life, you knew he liked someone, and that someone was very obvious, but you couldn't help but envy kiara every time you caught JJ looking at her, like she was the gem and he was the hunter. you wanted that, you wanted him, but you knew it was better if you just kept your mouth shut about it, and just tried to draw any unnecessary attention from yourself if he had ever caught on on your liking for him, or your stolen glances, or your brief lovestruck sighs. you yourself knew that you won't get in a relationship for the life of you, but delusion sounded like a good idea.

"shut up, okay, you got me.. I.. kind of.. just kind of, like.. kie- no, shut up, you're not gonna make fun of me for it, I swear I'll throw you off this damn cliff," he hovered his hand over your back, to imitate that he was serious.
