You had gone to visit JJ to let him know that Big John, John B's father, had returned. JJ was setting up his bike near his shack, so you walked over, and you started talking...

"Anyway...what was about to happen on the boat...wasn't bad..." you said in a low tone, referring to when you and JJ almost kissed on the boat.

JJ looked you in the eyes and lowered his tone as well. "No...it wasn't bad..." he said, with a somewhat shy tone.

You gradually and slowly got closer to JJ. Dangerously close. You were looking into each other's eyes and getting even closer, until JJ pulled away and walked away with his hands behind his neck, frustrated.

"No, no...what are we doing, {{user}}.." he muttered, with a bitter laugh, as he adjusted his hat.

"What's the deal..? I talked to Pope about it and he said It was okay—" you replied, your brows slightly furrowed.

"Don't you understand {{user}}?! Look at you! You're already wearing your new clothes...while I only have this. stupid. SHIT. SHACK!" he shouted, kicking the table with the work tools.

"JJ..—" you said. "It's not my fault..you know we can help you, or at least I will..."

He laughed bitterly. "It's easy for you to say, and you know why? BECAUSE YOU'RE A KOOK, {{user}}, YOU'RE A KOOK!" he shouted angrily, then he looked at the ground, suddenly feeling a little guilty.
