she/her

Summary: summer fling with Rafe. Your typical kook vs pouge war but what if instead of gold it was love?

Obx masterlist

─── ʚɞ ⋅ ᯓᡣ𐭩 ⋅ ୨୧ ───

Walking through town with jj and Kiara. She's shopping while you and jj tag along, she has midsummer coming up, and even though she thinks it's just fascist bullshit she can't help but love dress shopping, she's just a girl.

You guys are in the 3rd store this afternoon, dress after dress Kiara still can't find the perfect one.

“How about this one?” jj said picking out a random dress from the rack.

“Jj you and I both know that's ugly.” Kiara said with a disappointed look.

“Ugh! I can't seem to find one decent enough dress. I'm gonna lose it.” Kiara said as she swiped through hanger after hanger.

“Why do you need a new dress you have plenty,” you asked walking around looking for a dress

“Because my mom said so, I can't keep wearing the same ones over and over ‘it looks wrong’ and I quote.” Kiara answers.

“And by that she means it looks poor.” you finish for her grabbing a dress from the rack and inspecting it before adding it to your pile.

“I don't blame you but we've been through so many stores and you still can't seem to find one dress.” you throw your head back still looking for a dress.

“Kie why do you even care about this dress, you'll wear it for like not even a few hours anyways.” jj said giving up and sitting on the couch taking his cap off.

“If I have to wear it, it's gonna be perfect.” Kiara said smacking her lips.

“Prech it girl.” you said from across the room.

Finally after 11 racks and 2 stacks of dresses, kie is finally in the dressing room.

“Heres this one, it's only better than the rest.” she said coming out from the curtains with a blue sequin dress.

“I mean it's cute-”

“For prom” jayj finishes your sentence.

“Yeah it seems much for midsummers” you say tilting your head.

“Ugh that's what I thought but I wasn't sure, the rest are as bad!” Kie groans looking at herself in the mirror.

“There's like 2 satin dresses I picked out, try one of those. Girls usually wear simple dresses.” you say laying back on the couch.

“Theres a light blue and purple, which one are we thinking?” she yells out.

“Lights blue” jj said with his face covered by hat.

“Mmm purple if you wear blue you're practiially matching with Rafe” you say looking at the celling unbothered

Until you hear the words Rafe come out your mouth.

“What do you mean matching with him? How do you know what he's going to wear?” Kiara asked popping her head out the curtain confused.

“And you've never been to midsummer too how do you know what they wear?” jj suspiciously asked.

Your eyes widen before you look at your friend on the couch trying not to become flustered before opening your mouth to lie the best you ever could.

“Uh cause kies mom always post a family pic on Facebook and I stalk for fun when Im bored. I see some girls in the background..” you come up with, its true the stalking part so did you technically lie?

“Oh yeah you do I remember when you accidently liked John bs old post” jj laughed at himself.

“You were so petrified even though you were literally sitting in the chateau with him across the room.” jj pushes you in the side.

“Even though he's our friend it's embarrassing when someone finds out you stalk them!” you defending yourself.

“What did you mean by the Rafe thing tho” jayj asked.

“Its blue, Rafe 100% is gonna wear it cause ‘it matches his eyes’ " you said the last part dramatic

“Yeah he is a self observed prick” kie said shutting the curtain continuing to try on dresses.

You sit back in relief, letting out a deep breath after almost getting caught by your friends.

The only reason you knew what he was wearing is because you were there. You helped him pick it out and when he was having it tailored in the living room of tannyhill.

*ੈ𑁍༘⋆

—flashback—

You and Rafe were riding on a ferry on the way to the mainland. You were wearing a sundress with him in a matching polo shirt and khakis, both in ray bans he'd bought you.

He said his arm wrapped around your shoulder as he talked to you about the times he's snuck out and come to the mainland with him and his boys, with fake IDs and college parties they wessled their way in.

“Yeah and then Kelce was hooking up with a girl and then the cops came and we had to run! He got so pissed and yelled out cock blocking pigs!” he said chucking too himself.

You giggling finding the story funny but couldn't help but feel bad as you felt the buzzing of your phone that were obviously texts from your friends you canceled on.

“Whos texing you?” Rafe asked

“Just my friends” you say adjusting in the seat and grabbing your phone from your purse. Seeing notifications of the group chat of the pouches.

⌞ Pope hitting the Dougie. ⌝

What does the j stand for: Y/n don't you think we should at least have some kid balloons? Like dinosaurs or shit like that??

Kiki do you love me : its a highschool party.

Hope 🥺: I don't see the problem with silly balloons 😲

Johnathan : I would go for the balloons but its a no for me cause the one jj wants is practically half a case of a beer 🤑

You: Hate you jay ☺️

What does the j stand for: y/n to save the day once again.

Kiki do you love me: favoritism 🙄

Hope 🥺: he’s just the birthday boy

Johnathan: he's just a girl.

��

──────────────────────

“Youre gone for a day and their loosing their minds” He says with a smirk hugging you tighter

“Yeah they were planning Jj's birthday party today too. I told them to let me know if there's anything I can do while I'm gone but they said not to worry about it but as you can tell I think they're worrying.” you chuckled to yourself playing with your fingers.

“Jayjs party?” he scoffed “and I didn't get an invite?”

“Its at John bs place and besides even if you did get an invite you wouldn't even go. Thought you couldn't stand pouges” you looked at him

“And yet here we are..” he said before going in for a slow and passionate kiss.

The kiss was sweet. It tasted like mint gum and candy that you both shared. You couldn't lie to yourself, you loved these sweet moments with Rafe but you had to keep reminding you self that none of this was real. None of it was real.

Well it couldn't be anyways.

—end of flashback—

After kie finally picked the dress which was the purple satin one, you guys finally hit up a restaurant for lunch.

You guys sat in a booth and were handed menus by the waiter.

“Should we just get a pizza and split?” you offered

“Sure but we gotta get fries too” jj said looking through the menu.

After a couple of minutes getting your drinks and waiting for the food you guys were talking and jj hogging the fires.

Jj was smiling until the bell jingled and someone came in. He looked up and pure hatred took over his face.

“And look what the draft brought in.” he said throwing his fry in the basket.

You all looked up to see the one and only Rafe walk in. Wearing the Ray bans and his stupid (yet cute) button-up. He looked around and spotted jj, squinting his eyes and then placing a fake smile before coming up.

You groaned and slid down into your seat knowing what was about to come up.

“Ugh what does he want.” kie said giving dirty looks.

“Well well well, didn't know they served anchovie pizza here?” he said with his famous smirk, gabbing a chair and pulling it up.

“What do you want Rafe.” kie spat out

“Well I came for pizza cause its a pizza place..” he said smiling “didn't know pouges would be on my side of the island.” he said with any sign of fake happiness gone.

Him and Kie locked eyes practically having a staring contest.

You spoke up to hopefully ease the tension.

“Rafe I think your pizza is ready.” you said moving your eyes to the pizza sitting on the counter.

His eyes moved to you completely softening, but still had the hate look on his face. Complete whiplash it gave you.

“Didnt see you there princess.” he said looking you up and down.

“Okay you can go now.” jj shewed Rafe away.

“Don't want your pizza getting cold.” kie said.

You rolled your eyes, the typical kook vs pouge shit Rafe pulls. Rafe eyes linger on jj, then kie giving them looks that could kill. Soon he gets uo pushing the chair back, he goes up pays for the pizza. As he waits for the cashier to arrive he turns back around staring at your table.

“God he's so insufferable.” Kie says as the pizza arrives and you all start to dig in.

“Oh you got some sauce on your face princess” jayj says as he wipe the sauce off with his thumb.

Rafe watches jj as he licks his thumb and gets the smallest bit of sauce on your face

Didn't even need a napkin, could've just swiped it off yourself Rafe thinks to himself.

Soon the cashier arrives and handles the transaction. Finishing up Rafe huff out the store with the pizza. he gets to his car slamming the door and handing the pizza to Sarah who was in the passenger seat.

“Jeez what's your problem” she looks at her brother with a judgmental look.

“Those damn pouges.” Rafe talked through trough his teeth staring the truck.

“Let me guess, jj was sitting inside enojing a slice of pizza and minding his own business.” Sarah said smacking her lips.

“And Kiara.” he said looking at staah knowing the name would cause some spark.

“God that bitch.” Now the girl matching his energy.

“Hmm her cars right there…” Rafe said pointing to her blue nissan.

“Toolbox is in the back,” Sarah mentioned slyly.

Back in the restaurant the group of kids were eating and laughing when y/n got a notification. She picked up her phone looking at the Lock Screen.

Apple Pay Rafe 🕶️ sent $150: Get an Uber.

Y/n sighed in her spot, obviously her mood being ruined when another notification came.

Apple Pay Rafe 🕶️ sent $100: More Napkins wouldn’t hurt.

Y/n shocked her head and put her phone back down shaking the thoughts away as she focused on jayj talking about night surfing later.

After an hour you guys finally finshed, you took the bill because with the $250 you now had should be going to the dinner Rafe ruined. Or was about too.

As you all walk out towards the parking lot, you see Kiara’s care with all 4 tires popped.

“That fucking asshole!” Kid said running up to her car looking at the damage he caused.

“Kooks always win.” jj said taking his hat and ruffling his hair

“What the fuck am I gonna tell my parents ?” Yk said bending down and checking her tires.

so that was the Uber was for.

30 minutes later a tow truck and Kiara’s parents are surround the mechanic dude talking about prices and damage as you guys sit on concrete side walk.

“Can’t believe Rafe would actually do this. What would even prevoke him to do damage this bad?” Kie said with her head in her hands feeling completely defeated.

“It’s Rafe, not like he needs any reason to terrorize us. We were just eating pizza man.” jj said laying against the brick wall of the restaurant.

“You guys wanna Uber out of here? I’ll pay.” You offered feeling bad. It felt like your fault.

“No I have to go home, my parents are absolutely are gonna flip out on me.” Kie said closing her eyes whining.

“Jay?” You asked

“Where do you have the money for an Uber?” Jj asked.

“Extra shifts I guess, do you want a ride or not?” You ask one last time.

“Yeah yeah I’ll go with you.” he agreed.

Soon enough you’re in the Uber, you and jj are in the back seat. He’s looking out the window as you text your parents jj was coming over. As you sent the text you grab your sunglasses in your bag and putting them on to block out the sun for a quick nap.

“So where are you getting all this extra cash?” Jj asked suspiciously.

“I work and save up jay. Saving up means I don’t spend my whole paycheck at the smoke shop.” You lied.

“Those are raybans. I thought you said you didn’t like wasting your money on materialistic stuff” he asked pointing to the glasses.

“They were on sale, and besides I can't own at least one nice thing jj?” you say avoiding eye contact.

“You picked up the whole check and now the uber-”

“Jj enough! I don't feel like being integrating by my own best friend. I work okay? I save up and am able to have these extra things.” you scoffed

“Okay okay chill out..” jayj let go of the topic.

Soon the 20-minute ride to the opposite side of the island's finally came to an end. You and jj got out with him follow you into your house and straight to your room.

“Are you staying the night?” you asked putting your purse and shoes to the side.

“Mhm probably not, I gotta work at the dock early in the morning.” he said grabbing his secret stash of weed and joint paper behide the picture of you and the pouges.

“Your welcome to join me?” he said opening your window and beging to roll a joint.

“No thanks jay” you say crashing down on your bed and opening up insta.

As you scroll through stories you end up on Rafes with him at the country club playing golf with his friends in the morning, then a few drinks, then him and Sarah with a screw driver with fake smiles caption with “🐟🛞”

Confirmed.

As soon as you get off a insta you get a text.

──────────────────────

Rafe 🕶️

──────────────────────

Rafe 🕶️: just saw you viewed my stories

You: stalker

Rafe 🕶️: Whatever, come over tonight and bring extra clothes

You: sleepover?

Rafe 🕶️: yes ☠️☠️☠️

You: mhm alr

You: see you later ❤︎

*Rafe 🕶️ hearted a message*

──────────────────────

You close your phone and turn over to jayj who’s in his own little world.

You began thinking to yourself, are you really gonna let Rafe get away with basically destroying Kiara’s car? And now he’s acting like nothing happened?

These are the moments where your morals stand in line. You know hooking up with Rafe, who all the pouges hate and you can’t blame them.

The sneaking around is fun and the sex is amazing.

It’s completely wrong.

Your typical forbidden love, Romeo and Juliet type shit.

But is it even love?

It’s a simple summer fling, but you know it’s more than that.

Rafe Cameron fic

The scene in obx where rafe and pope are fighting and pope is strangling him with something. Reader is friends with pope and JJ, but she saves Rafe from pope and the others are very shocked that she saved rafe and not her friends. She helps rafe up and takes him home and cleans him up. Some flirting maybe

“Let me clean you up”

Summary: you choose Rafe over the pouges and end up taking him home to clean him up.

Warnings: smut

“Pope! Let him go, you’ll kill him” tears streamed down my face as I watched one of my best friends strangle Rafe.

I don’t know why. I never cared for the kook, but this has gone too far.

This rival that we have with Rafe Cameron is ridiculous and death should not be the answer, it couldn’t.

“He needs to die y/n. It’s the only way!” JJ screamed from the side where me and my friends watched.

“No!” I yelled as i lurched forward and pushed pope off him.

“This has gone too far!” I stepped between them and watched as pope breathed hard and backed away, realization of what he’d almost done hitting him.

I turned to rafe, and his face was blooded and bruised. An indent of the wire pope had wrapped around his neck evident, leaving a red mark.

“Come on. I’ll clean you up” I shocked myself as I walked up to Rafe an rubbed his shoulder before dragging him off.

“Y/n! What are you doing? He’s the enemy!” I heard John Bs voice but I could care less, they were ready to let a man die just to get the gold.

Even if Rafe was a horrible human being he didn’t deserve death, no one does.

Rafe was eyeing me as I dragged him into my car and drove us back to my place.

Not a word left his mouth as we entered my beat down home and I walked him into my bedroom, telling him to sit down while I went to get supplies.

I came back with some ice packs and bandages along with ointment for the cuts.

“I’m sorry” I whispered as I cleaned him up.

“I didn’t think they’d take it that far”

His eyes never left mine.

“Why are you doing this?” He finally spoke up as I applied the finally bandages to his face.

I signed before looking into his eyes.

They were so blue, so sad, so..deprived.

“I- I don’t know. I just couldn’t stand there and let them kill you” I never took my eyes off his.

There was a best of silence before his face softened and without thinking I reached out, caressing his face and bringing my lips to his cuts, kissing them one by one.

If Rafe was hesitant he didn’t show it, he stood still but relaxed as I came face to face with him and leaned down to his lips.

I could take the blood deep from his cut but it only drove me harder. I slipped my tongue inside his mouth and he complied.

He wrapped his fingers in my hair and tugged as I moaned against his lips.

“Y/n” he breathed out as I kissed my way to his neck.

I nipped at the skin and pushed him back against the bed.

I stripped and he watched as I stood completely naked before him.

I climbed onto his lap and straddled him.

I leaned forward and helped pull his shirt off him.

Before I could do anything else he twirled us so he was ontop, an animalistic growl leaving his lips.

With heavy breathed we started at each other for a split second before my hands reached for his zipper and pulled it down.

His jeans feel along with his boxers and he pounced.

Stuffing himself in me with one quick thrust and i was so sweet he slid in perfectly.

“Fuck” he hissed as he slowly shifted his hips and my hands flew to his shoulders for stability.

“Shit. Rafe!” I moaned as he started moving faster.

He picked up the pace and slammed inside me repeatedly at a relentless pace.

He was so deep and it felt so good I was already on the brink of release.

“I-I’m gonna cum”

“Do it. Cum with me”

And with that I did.

My muscles clenched around him and soon I felt myself full of his cum.

He deliver a few lazy thrusts and I winced at the empty feeling as he pulled out.

He flopped down next to me and all that was heard was our heavy breathing.

I turned to face him but he was already looking at me.

“What” I said.

Rafe shrugged before running a hand through his messy hair.

“Nothing. Maybe you should start defending me more” he winked before walking off into the bathroom.

He returned with a wash cloth.

“My turn to clean you up”

He knelt down and wiped away the stickiness between my thighs before dressing me back up and himself.

He stood awkwardly as I discarded the sheets on my bed.

“So.. I guess I should go” his tone had a question to it and I smiled to myself.

Was Rafe Cameron nervous? That’s a first.

“Or.. you could stay?” I said turning around.

“I mean, whose gonna play nurse with you when your bandages need changing later.” I winked as a smirk tugged his lips.

“Right” he clicked his tongue and walked up behind me.

“Never thought I’d fall for a pouge”

[mariailoveyou-guerin]

Oh he getting uglier and uglier by the day what’s happening he use to be cute but now he looks bad with this haircute and the facial hair oh this means obx4 is being filmed for sure because he only gets worse when he filming that show like he gets worse and worse for each season maybe that’s the point all the bs getting to his character, it makes sense honestly I can see it!

He will never be fine and I need y’all to wake up bc aint no way y’all lying to yourself this much bc u like his psychopath character, he gonna be the new Timothy who was the new Noah I’m afraid I can’t take yet another one!! Truly in his worst era and that’s saying something bc he was horrendous in s3 too wonder what happened to him at one point he was cute and okay looking and now he turning into just not it at all!

Streets saying he’s a method actor so for s5 he’s gonna be walking around like a corpse looking dead because his character will be six feet under love to see it but on a genuinely real level what’s happening to him why he decomposing in front of our eyes something is off fr

Forgot the drew freaks existed for a good minute since I ain’t seen his ass nowhere since obx ended and now it’s all back because they live on this app and on tktk like the true loser freaks they are but what’s worse is they out here making me defend rudy like he ain’t mid himself he just happens to be the 2nd hottest guy on that show sharing it with Nick out of the yt men he’s hottest but the bar was non existent so can’t even give him that win bc it’s not a win if there’s no competition but how dare they make me defend Rudy just he he’s not ugly like drew or below mid like drew but above mid

why they acting like he’s Jacob when he ain’t even Jacob foot in terms of good looks and talent is never coming near his pinky yt psychopath character stans are so weird yet so fascinating to me because they genuinely believe these men are hot bc they like their psychopath characters, I remember Kylo ren stans were ready to die on actual hill saying Adam Driver was hot I just can’t with them never laughed so hard in my life at first I thought they was joking but nope they was dead serious too whenever I remember I laugh so hard my stomach feels like it’s about to fall out, what’s not surprising nor shocking to anyone was they were all divorced hag yt woman and white unloved teens with issues! What a niche type of yt woman/teens who like them these ugly men and why do they all look almost exactly the same somebody needs to study that, there just has to be a study on it why they are always hag pushing 40 white woman or teen girls liking them all because they like their weirdo character a little bit to much and they also like and think real life serial killers are hot and have fan accounts and meme accounts for them sickos for real! may they get help for this illness

I get liking Jacob and thinking his character Nate was hot because the man is hot even tho his character is garbage but liking and thinking drew or Adam driver is hot bc y’all like their weirdo character yeah that’s to far way to far off the sanity 🏊‍♀️! let’s be serious about this

Adam driver attractive hot 😂 funniest shit I have ever heard in my life drew by s5 really gonna look like him to

Enjoy reading this!

Falling for him part 1

“Okay, so what are supposed to do now?” you question, readjusting in your seat in hopes of getting JJ to move.

“Tomorrow night we are going to the Crane house to look for the gold in a well that we found underneath the house.” John B replies, you shoot Sarah a look as soon as you hear the word “Crane”

“Wait Crane? Like Mrs Crane, the one who killed her husband?” your question was more directed at Sarah than anyone else, but JJ responds,

“Yeah, it’s weird. D’know why it had to be there” JJ mumbled, standing up from the couch. You finally felt like you could breathe, you could feel the places where your skin had been stuck onto his. He pulled a blunt out of his pocket followed by a lighter, you stared at him as he lifted it up to his mouth and lit it. The smell of weed instantly became all you could smell and taste, your nose twitched at it.

“I don’t understand why we are getting her involved” Kiara responds, reminding you she still doesn’t like you.

“I have a name y’know” you crossed your arms, staring at her.

“Its fine Kie, we can trust her” John B fires out, he stands up grabbing Sarah by her hand and walking out to the jetty that’s outside John Bs home.

---------------------------------------

JJ walks back towards the couch, and Kiara stands up brushing past JJ and walking out of the Chateau quickly followed by Pope.

“Don’t worry, she had the same reaction with Sarah” JJ said, grunting as he sat down next to you again. You hated confrontation, it made you extremely anxious, so you sat there playing with the bracelets on your wrist and bouncing your leg up and down.

“I don’t understand why she’s mad, she is the one that walked out on our friend group” You could still smell the weed on JJ, it stunk. You leaned back into the couch, letting yourself breathe for a moment.

“I’ve always liked you anyways” JJ responds, turning around to look at you. you heart skipped a beat at that sentence, you searched his face for any further explanation of what he meant. Did he like you as a friend or did he like you as a love interest? He stood up again, walking out the chateau towards the jetty were Sarah and John B are, leaving you to think about what he said a thousand times over in your head.

The words spun around your head millions of times, you were zoned out in a place of pure confusion and hope. You could feel your heartbeat in your chest, pounding like a drum. Your palms feel sweaty, and your cheeks are burning up. You quickly snap out of it when you hear the screen door open. You blink your eyes out of the trance, seeing Sarah walking towards you.

“Hey, how are you feeling about all this?” she questions you, sitting down next to you on the couch. You scotched over, readjusting your seating position.

The question took you aback, you had to sit and think for a while before answering.

Is this really what I want?

Am I willing to sacrifice for this group?

Yes, I am.

“You know, I’m feeling okay. I would feel better if Kie wasn’t being such a bitch but I’m okay” you responded to Sarah, giving her a smile to reassure you that you were okay. She smiles back, excitement decorated on her face. Your glad this made her happy, besides you need to get out of the bubble wrap at some point, right?

“I’m so glad, thank you” her voice was sincere, you leaned in for a hug, and she wrapped her arms around the back of your neck swaying you both sideways before letting go and jumping up from the couch.

“Come, everyone is sitting on the jetty” She reaches out her hand, and you grab hold of it and let her pull you up off the couch. You both walk to the screen door that leads outside, push it open, and walking down the wooden steps. You walk across the lush green grass, breathing in that familiar smell of the Outer Banks, one so nostalgic and homey. You continue walking down the jetty until you get to the end where the rest of the pogues are. Kiara is off to the side, sitting under the railing and up against a pillar next to Pope, JJ and John B are sitting on the only two chairs that are there. Sarah sits on the floor between John B's legs, you just decided to sit on the floor In front of everyone.

John B and JJ are talking about ways to get the gold out of the well, Kie and Pope are having a conversation but it’s too quiet to hear what exactly they are saying just muffled murmurs. Sarah looks exhausted and has her eyes closed, there is no one to talk to you. so instead you listen into what John B and JJ are saying.

“Okay so we need rope, so we can lower you down into the well” JJ adds, gesturing towards John B.

“I swear to god JJ, if you guys drop me, I’m going to kill you” John B responds with laughter, JJ cackles at his joke.

“Nah don’t worry bro, we gotchu” JJ replies, doing the Pogue handshake with John B. you watched as they do it the back of JJ’s hand hits John Bs palm, then John bs back hand hits JJs hand, followed by the outside of their hands hitting together and a snap. It simple and easy enough to remember, you start practicing it on yourself. JJ looks over and sees you doing the handshake with yourself,

“How are we going to transp-” John B was cut off by JJ

“Yo, hold that thought” JJ stood up from his chair walking over to you. You looked up as soon as you saw his feet in front of you.

“Let me help you” he insisted “here stand-up” you stood up, standing in front of him.

“Okay put your hand like that” you followed his directions, “yep, then like this and into the snap” he finished, watching your smile brighten your face up.

“See its easy” JJ cheered, looking into your eyes.

“Thank you!” you responded, laughing at his unseriousness. You couldn’t see it, but you could feel Kiara staring daggers into the side of your head, you could feel her negative mood fill the space around you.

JJ:

She’s so pure, there is just something about Y/N that makes her so alluding. Her smile brightens her whole face, it's warm and big. Her big eyes are so gorgeous, I feel weak every time I’m under her gaze. She reminds me of the sun, Warm and fuzzy, Bright, and happy like long summer days. She is the definition of summer, if summer was a person, it would be her. Her sun-kissed cheeks and freckles sprinkled all over her body. Her laugh made me feel like I was on cloud nine, sure I’d noticed her at parties and drunkenly asked to hook up with her, Kook Princess. But now, I’m really noticing her, Y/N Palmer, Pogue, a ball of hope, joy, love, and care.

But what would an amazing person like her want to do with a low life like me? Nothing that’s what.

Kiara:

Why is she still here? she doesn’t belong. Why is John B happily letting her into my friend group? She is nothing like us, she doesn’t care about any of the things we do. Can she not read the room, she’s not wanted here, and why is JJ talking to her? He is usually so protective of his friends and doesn’t just let a random girl into the group,

he hates kooks.

She needs to leave.

Y/N:

You and JJ continue doing the handshake until you can do it without thinking about it, your laughter filling the air around you, casting a shadow over Kiaras negative mood.

“There ya go! You got it” JJ cheers out, high fiving you. your hand wraps around his unconsciously, and his hand seems to follow, the two of you are now holding hands and for a split second you could feel something, it was like a spark of electricity a warm tingle connecting the two of you together. As fast as you held hands you both let go. JJ’s gaze was on you and you only it’s like he felt it too, the connection. You look up at him through your lashes, your cheeks turning pink when you see the soft smile on his face. You tuck your hair behind your ear, and you spend a moment together, like no one else was with you.

“Thanks for the tutorial” you clear your throat, placing a hand on your hip.

“Well, you gotta know it, you’re a Pogue now” the words light like a feather, he says it with meaning and care. You cover your face with your hands, you feel embarrassed at how red your cheeks are right now.

You take your hands away from your face and turn to your left eyeing the empty chair JJ once sat on. Theres no way you’re sitting on the floor again, you turn back to JJ and flash a big smile, he looks at you confused but you let him figure out what your about to do. As soon as you see the smile on his face and the shake of his head you bolt towards the chair, JJ is fast behind you pulling at your arms. You manage to be the first in the chair, but JJ pulls you of it sitting down on it. You laugh as your body hits the floor, you pull at his legs trying to get him off the chair, but its no use he is too strong and holds himself onto the chair. You give up, crossing your arms and giving JJ a daring look.

You could feel everyone’s confused expressions on you, it’s understandable you and JJ are acting like you’ve known each other for years. And to you, it feels like you have. But the truth is you have barely spoken to him before, only given him the finger when he drunkenly asked you to have sex with him which you always refused to. So, you really don’t know him, and he doesn’t know you, but it feels like you do, it feels like you and him are soulmates, your hearts beat as one.

“JJ please, let me sit on the chair” you plead with him from the floor. He looks at you a smirk lines his lips.

“Or we can share” he proposes, tapping his lap. You look at him, stunned. Did he really just invite you to sit on his lap? Or are you just imagining this?

“No thanks” you respond, his smile drops, replaced by an offended look. You lie down on the planks beneath you, trying to gather your thoughts on what the hell just happened.

------------------------------------------------------------------

You are in the back of the twinkie, and John B pulls up to an old house. He starts going through a checklist of items,

“You guys got rope?” John B asks,

“Got it” pope calls out,

“Grappling hook?” John B continues,

“We don’t have a grappling hook, were not batman” Pope replies, to which everyone bursts out into laughter.   

“Pulley?”

“Check”

“Dark clothes?”

“Got it”

“Flashlights?”

“Check”

“All right, good” John B finishes his list. “Were ready”

“let’s go” Kiara calls out.

“Let’s go get rich guys” JJ jokes, which makes you whip your head around to look at him.

“Yeah, hell yeah” You respond, slapping JJ with the back of your hand. John B gets out the twinkie, walking around the front and to the side of the van

“Let’s go boys… and girls” Kiara says, in a weird tone. John B slides the door open, everyone is about to get out before John B stops everyone.

“Wait, wait, wait.” He continues, “I wanna say thank you, guys. Seriously. It means a lot to me that you’re here tonight”

“Always” Kiara returns, looking around at everyone, but her eyes skip over yours. Your head starts spinning, you still don’t understand why she is acting so sour towards you. your anxiety starts to spike, making you feel nauseous and dizzy.

“Of course, man” Pope says to John B, doing the handshake you had learned before with JJ.

“My man” John B says,

“Alright, are we done with this circle jerk?” JJ interrupts the moment, “Can we go do this?” everyone rolls their eyes at him, but you can’t help but smile at his joke. Everyone hops out of the van, Pope, Kiara, Sarah, JJ and then you.

“Let’s go get the wheat out of this water” Pope says,

“Weed? I’m up for weed” JJ bounces off from pope,

“Wheat. I said wheat.” Pope replied, pronouncing his words.

The group made their way over to the stone wall that is out front of the Cranes house,

your heart is thumping in your chest.

First Sarah goes, you watch where she puts her foot and how she climbs up. Kie follows after her, doing the same thing Sarah did. John B and Pope go next, now it’s just you and JJ on the other side of the wall. You walk up to the wall, and asses it trying to find where the best spot is to put your foot. You find a nice place and stick your foot in it, pulling yourself up. But as you were doing so, it was almost like you blacked out for a second, your vision went blurry, and you couldn’t see what was in front of you. you let go of the wall and fell backwards, landing on the grass in front of the wall. Your head hit the ground pretty hard, you felt like the world around you was spinning.

“Oh shit! Guys she fell!” JJ called out, hoping the pogues hadn’t gone too far already. He rushed over to you, sliding down onto the floor next to you. He put his hand on your forehead and brushed your hair back off your face, his eyes checking over your body to see if you were badly hurt anywhere. His hand shakily hovers over your body. “Shit, I don’t know what to do! John B!” JJ yelled out again, his eyes frantic still trying to see if you had broken anything. “It’s okay, you’re okay I can’t see anything wrong” his head was hovering above yours, his hand cupping your cheek. You look at him, his face is drawn with worry.

“Okay, I’m fine I just hit my head” JJ moves back, as you sit up. He is quick to be back by your side.

“Wait you hit your head?” He forcefully moves your head, so the back of it was towards him.

“JJ what the fuck is going on bro?” John B yelled from the other side of the wall.

“Dude, she fell! I’m Just making sure she’s okay!” he yelled back, his hands searched your head looking for any cuts on it, he was gentle, moving your hair out of the way, and carefully searching through it.  

“Hurry up!” John B called out again, sounding impatient.

Shit. You’re causing a scene and making everyone wait you can imagine Kiara and what she is probably thinking right now.

Your breath quickens.

“JJ I’m fine” you turned your head around to look at him, his hands still in front of him. You started to stand up, but JJ stood up before you could

“Wait are you sure? Let me help you” he grabbed your arm and pulled you up. When you were standing his hand fell down to you hand, his fingers intertwined with yours.

“J, I’m fine just help me up” you walk over to the wall, letting go of JJs hand and putting your foot in the same spot it was in before. Your arms and legs felt like jelly.

Your hands started shaking.

“Can I put my hands here?” JJ asked you, his hands hovering over your waist. You looked down to where his hands are, you pushed his hand into your waist

“Yeah, and then push me up” both his hands tightened around your waist, you hoisted yourself up with JJs help. You knew that you could have done that yourself but because you fell you were scared to. You were sitting on the wall, and then jumped down. JJ was quick behind you, he jumped down standing next to you. you looked up, your eyes met with Kiaras. Her face was twisted with anger, she rolled her eyes at you.

“You good?” John B asks, hitting your arm.

“Yeah, I’m fine, I just fell” You dusted the back of your shorts off, Kiara scoffed at you.

“Okay let’s go, operation liberation baby” JJ’s voice filled the air, you heart is still racing in your chest. Everyone went off into the heavy bush of the Crane house. You waited to go so you could follow everyone. JJ waited back with you, it felt like he knew something was up. You walked with him, your arms touching, in a way that kept you grounded and reminded you that you were safe. The group came to a stop near the house, but still a bit away from it. All of a sudden, a light switched on.

“Shit!” Pope and Kie called out,

Your heart was bouncing out of your chest.

“Flashlights! Flashlights!” Kie warned everyone.

You switched yours off.

“Shhh!” John b hushed everyone loudly. You all crouched down on the floor.

“Okay, so she has motion sensor lights” Pope whisper yells.

“We could uh… move really slowly, maybe?” JJ inquired,

dumbass.

“That’s not how it works” Pope replies

“Oh, shit. Let’s throw a rock at it” JJ continues in full confidence.

“What?” you said, looking at JJ.

“That’s a really good idea. Let the axe murderer know that were here” Kiara prods at JJ.

“Well do you guys have a better idea?” JJ questions the group.

“Literally anything but that” Sarah responds, you giggle at her.

Suddenly an idea popped up in your head. You question whether you should say it or not, but your mouth moves quicker than your thoughts.

“What about the breaker? In the circuit box on the porch” everyone’s eyes fall onto you.

“We used to play hide and seek here as kids remember?” you looked at Sarah, and she nods at you.   

“And if we were brave enough, we’d go all the way up to the porch” you pause, “I’ve seen it”  

“No, no. You’re not going in the house alone” JJ warns you.

“Crain chops people into pieces” John B contributed.

“If you believe that, but she like what, 85?” you respond

“Yeah, somethin’ like that” JJ replies

“She’s probably barely still kicking” you answer back at him

“Here. I’ll go with you” Sarah says to you.

“I’ll go to” Kiara seconds onto her.

“We’ll wait for your signal” Pope voiced.

“Okay, cool” Sarah whispers.

You go to stand up, but JJ grabs your hand, you turn to look at him. He gives you a worried look, but you shoot him a reassuring smile and continue standing up. No words were used but you knew exactly what he was trying to say. Before you could even make your way to the porch John B yelled out,

“Hey! Be safe” John b said,

“We will” Sarah replied, you walked in front of Sarah and Kiara and led them to the porch.

You continued walking through the overgrown grass, and trees.

“She must have a generator plugged into the main power supply” Sarah breathed out from behind you, dead leaves and sticks crunching underneath your feet as you walk. You found the front porch and started walking up the stairs.

“Shh…” Kiara hushed the two of you as you walked up. The stairs creaking underneath you. you shinned your flashlight onto the breaker. Sarah stood next to you as Kiara opened it as quietly as she could. When she opened it, you were met with a bunch of wires and electrical stuff.

Your breath shortened.

“Shit, where are the breakers” Sarah called out.  

“What is this?” Kiara questioned.

“No, no, no, no, no, no.” You panicked looking at what you thought was the breaker box.

“Shit” Kiara lifts her torches light, following a wire “It goes inside” she traced the wired up to the roof.

You walked over to the door and gently pulled the first door open. It was like a weird, barred door, like a jail cell. It screeched as you opened it, then the main door that leads into the house. You twisted the doorknob, and it sounded like the paint was causing it to stick as you shoved it open.

The three of you tiptoed inside, following the wire that was on the roof. The house smelled of dampness and dust, the walls have photos of a family, you assume its Mrs Cranes family. There are bookshelves everywhere, top to bottom filled with books. You wonder how does someone even manage to end up with so many, she practically has a library in her home.

You continue walking through the house, you walk into a sitting room, and a cat yowls at you before scurrying away. Kiara points her flashlight up at the roof,

“Hey” she whispers, her flashlight was on the wire you’ve been following.

“Yeah, yeah.” You whispered back. You walked into another room following the wire across the roof, and then down the wall to where the breaker box is. Once you found it there was shared gasps of relief and soft chuckles.

“All right” Kiara breathed out, she wrapped her finger around the switch, carefully pushing it over to one side, the light outside didn’t turn off, so she went to the next one and switched it to the other side. With a click, the light outside turned off. You, Sarah, and Kiara took a deep breath out you did it! Now all that the boys had to do was get the gold out of the well.

[jjmayday]

obx hot take: the Pates forget that two of their core characters are black living in the south and that Topper and Rafe's elitism would doubtless come with old-money racism, and it's frustrating because their main connecting point between all three plots is LITERALLY A FREED SLAVE, and the closest we get to any dialogue about it is subliminal - Pope's 'family legacy' storyline and Kie's 'I don't fit in with the kooks' storyline. race plays a part in obx but they won't explicitly say it

NO BC LETS TALK ABOUT IT. rafe and topper literally jump pope in s1 bc he was a "pogue" on figure eight. that definitely seems racially motivated to me but it gets watered down to kooks v pogues. they touch on it vaguely when pope is at limbrey's in s2, but even then the racial aspects of it are not really mentioned. they use tanny as a plot point and obviously the fact that hes a freed slave is a huge connection for everything like you said but nothing about the modern implications of it is ever brought up. this is one of the shows that is big enough where i feel like if they did delve more into the racial parts of it a lot of the general audience would say shit like "why did they have to make this show political" and i feel like theyre trying to avoid that which is such BS bc it could add such a real deep layer to the conflict.

send me your obx hot takes

i was active in the obx tumblr fandom for some time and had to leave cause i swear that so many of these bitches are the most racist fatphobic people i have ever encountered. even now that i just lurk and reblog i can still tell which blogs to stay away from and sideeye. ur one of the very few people i can follow and be carefree while having fun discussions about this silly show and it’s so fucking awful that they can’t just stay in their miserable bubble and leave amazingly talented and funny people like you alone. it’s so pathetic honestly so sorry u have to deal with such bs

i really appreciate your words honestly being black in fandom spaces is so weird but i won't let them run me out tbh like i have too much fun here regardless of the bs

[hepaidattention]

my favorite underated Sarah and JJ sibling coded scene in s3 of OBX is when JJ says to John B, "the universe does not like you" and Sarah raises her head from John Bs shoulder, purses her lips, and glares at him even though he's not even looking. It's just such a brother/sister thing to do and it makes me laugh everytime.

icl every obx writer has to write a pouge!reader x rafe but it’s a secret relationship that’s being hidden from the rest of the pouges (john bs group)

I do have one. It's called I Want To Be With You. Do you have something more specific that you have in mind?

#ask me anything #ask #send me asks #anon ask #anonymous #requests

[cloveroctobers]

Thoughts so far while watching episode 4 of S3 OBX

John b being shook over his father’s actions is interesting to see considering how much bs he’s currently into lol

But old man’s kinda a bit obsessive when it comes to these artifacts — yeah yeah it’s ur thing or whatever but you allowed your son to think you were with the water Christ over this shit and you done resurrected and are still at it like?? Get it together four eyed Tarzan

Kie not bothering to mention that she was held up in a room with Rafe will probably come back to bite her in the ass…as usual

We love to see the bonding between Pope & Cleo!!! 🫶🏽

Barry’s hair is…a choice.

Lunatic Rafe’s hair > Barry’s

But love “he’s got my check.”🤭

Side note in regards to Jiara so far—I personally didn’t mind it in the beginning like season 1 but then certain fans had to take it to the extreme to the point it’s apparently reflecting outside of the show which is…idk whack? So it’s not really my top ship or I don’t really care for anyone to be shipped atp lmao I’m just here for the good ‘ol platonic friendship group!

Just me I guess. ☕️

I’m not going to say Jiara is coming out of nowhere because I do agree there were hints of it back in the previous seasons, however it does seem like they’re pushing that fan service—only because—we missed a huge portion of those two privately bonding on that island.

No we didn’t need a whole dragged out episode or more to see that but I would like to see at least a damn flashback. Mind you, I’m only! On episode 4!! Yes they’re acknowledging it now (with it still feeling like jj cares how it’ll make pope feel? Don’t like that. Man is still hurt obviously. Glad Cleo is there to take his mind off the foulness of it all) — good for them yet I still feel like it’s bad timing idk but to each their own.

Still don’t agree with these writers having Kiara go from one to next (from kissing John b, then worrying about how JJ feels about that, to having a night with pope but lacking the proper communication on what the intentions of their romantic relationship was and just down right being cold to my guy, to circling right back to wondering about the what if’s with JJ like??? I get it they’re teenagers and you’re not going to have it all together but it’s one thing after another can we relax?) and it feels hinted that’s what her mother did? From being a kook hinting that she messed around with pogues (possibly JJ’s own father or at least there’s some form of history there between them based off his drunk-tellings idk) + marrying a pogue—kie’s father?

I felt like it was implied that’s the side he came from when her mother spewed her hatred for the pogues at kie who wants nothing but to be declared as such but then they’re so hypocritical!!! trying to forget their own skeletons—if you want to even call it that

So it’s basically history repeating itself and I did a whole mini think-piece on why I’m not feeling jiara romantically. Yes there was a sprinkle of chemistry but in the long-run I don’t think it would work. Ship has sailed and they should have thought about that before they decided to do that bs with Kiara & pope 💯

Give Kiara a gf atp 😜 or maybe not worry about the romance…considering they’re all constantly watching their backs rn?

[sun-undone]

I personally would’ve thought you were an actual Director yourself by the way you articulate  the show and break down each scene, character development, and even the music scoring!

Some of my highlights from your podcast:

- Your character breakdown analysis on Rafe

- you calling Ward out on his BS kills me ever time 😂

- and you for-seeing  JJ and kiara relationship 🤯 I would’ve never saw the subtle hints in season two but then again, I am a guy lol

 I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on Big John!

I am a true fan of your commentary.

oh my gosh this is incredibly kind idk how to even receive a compliment like this anskskajzjajs i am most definitely not a director or screenwriter or anyone even adjacent to that, i really just try my very best to look deeper into everything that interests me and have consumed a ton of fanfic and metas about the show that definitely inform my own interpretations, but THANK YOU!!

rafe and jj are for sure two of the most interesting characters on obx in my opinion, so analyzing them comes so easily just cause i can’t help but look into literally every thing they do and say. i’ve done some supplemental research about coping mechanisms and trauma for jj (and honestly just cause i love psychology) but i have barely even scratched the surface!! i’m always down for a deep dive on them or really any of these characters

ward is a shit but also complex too, topper is really the one i think i hate on the most ansksjsnsjzjs

and the jiara stuff i really cannot take even half the credit for!!!!! there are so many amazing brains in the fandom that have analyzed the shit out of their relationship progression, and while i try to give credit as much as possible when i know i’m taking a thought directly from someone else’s meta, i’m sure there are things that i’ve talked about that i don’t even realize have been influenced by a fic i’ve read or a gif set i’ve seen. the jiara tumblr fandom will never fail to amaze me and i thank you for giving me this opportunity to give them all the praise!!! so many of them have been here since the very beginning when they really had to analyze every pixel, so none of us could’ve done it without them.

ANYWAY sorry for going on a massive tangent i just love this community so much and feel so lucky to be a part of it in the way that i am and i also just feel like i need to give them as much credit as i possibly can cause without them, the pod probably wouldn’t exist in the first place (even though i kept it a secret from them for months but that’s not important)

thank you thank you thank you for this lovely message and for sharing your support!!! i love hearing your commentary! opening up conversations through the pod is actually the best

#for the gc #annie won’t find this one i bet she won’t #diver down pod
