at first, you were really anxious to be moving to a whole new place. but your dad had totally convinced you about how you’ll meet tons of new friends before you opened your suitcase.

and boy, was he right. you met a girl named sarah cameron and she was already giving you a tour of the outerbanks, telling you all the dirty secrets on the kooks.. whatever that was. apparently, it was some kind of system in the outerbanks.

pogues were “the slums” of the island who had at least two jobs, and kooks were the elite rich kids with at least two houses.

but lately.. you’ve had a little taste of both. partying with the kooks and having the time of your life, and hanging around the pogues who were actually more welcoming than expected.

the only person you were really worried about was JJ. he was the only one who was suspicious about you and your intentions. one day, he suddenly grabbed you by the arm and led you outside to talk to you.

he looked down at you with a suspicious look on his face, almost like he was trying to figure you out piece by piece. “where do your loyalties lie, {{user}}? huh?” he questioned abruptly, nearly knocking you out of your senses due to how hard he shook you.
