Kyla and Tara walked towards the area where the OBX was holding the 'OBX SUMMER MOVIE SERIES' with chairs on their backs. Kyla, Kiara, and Sarah had gone last year together, so they wanted to do the same thing, but with Tara. But, Sarah was nowhere to be found, so Kyla and Tara decided to go together.

"I cannot believe our boat sank! I wanna know who did it right away," Tara complained to her friend since her family's boat had sunk that morning.

"Yeah, that's crazy," Kyla said, shaking her head.

"So, did you invite Rafe to this?" Tara then asked Kyla curiously as they made their way over to where a vendor was selling food and drinks.

Kyla shook her head. "Me and Rafe are sort of in a fight right now and I haven't spoken to him for, like, hours," she told Tara, stepping onto line.

"Geez, what happened?" Tara asked, pretending to be worried even though she was hopeful. She already knew part of what happened, but she wondered if something else happened. She hoped it did because it would give them another reason as to why the couple should break up.

Kyla sighed. "It's a long story."

Tara was annoyed by that answer since she wanted to know more. But, she didn't let that annoyance show on her face. Instead, she changed the subject. "So, have you heard from Sarah at all? She won't answer any of my texts."

"I haven't actually," Kyla said, moving up in line. "I hope she's okay."

Tara shrugged. "She's probably off somewhere cheating on Topper," she said, making a face.

"Tara!" Kyla whisper-shouted, her eyes wide.

"What?" Tara asked, and Kyla gave her a look. "Oh, come on, it's nothing she hasn't done before. And besides, I wouldn't even blame her. Topper is annoying as shit," she said and Kyla sighed, shaking her head. They then made it up to the concession stand. "Two popcorns and two cokes, please," Tara said and the vendor nodded, walking back to get the popcorn.

"Speaking of coke..." Kyla trailed off, not know how to word the sentence that she wanted to say. Tara was also snorting the lines of cocaine that Rafe had brought, but she was too angry with Rafe to even acknowledge the blonde.

Tara nodded, knowing what she was talking about. "It was just a one time thing, Ky. Nothing to worry about," she assured her even though she was most definitely lying.

"Okay, I just wanted to make sure. You can never be too careful," Kyla said, grabbing the two popcorns as Tara grabbed the cokes once the vendor placed them down on the counter.

They then walked away to go and set up their chairs, placing their food on the ground. "Actually, you can be too careful," Tara replied, making Kyla arch a brow. "And it's called being Kyla."

Kyla tried to give her an unamused look, but a smile still creeped up onto her face. "Ha ha, so funny," she said sarcastically.

Tara then looked over her shoulder, the smirk on her face dropping. "Why is your sister talking to your boyfriend?" Tara asked, but she wasn't concerned for Kyla. She just wanted to make sure that someone else wasn't trying to get with Rafe.

Kyla furrowed her brows and looked over her shoulder, seeing Kiara and Rafe talking before Kiara walked away with an annoyed expression her face. Rafe then watched her walk away before he looked forward, noticing that Kyla and Tara were staring right at him. He sent a wave in their direction, making Kyla shake her head in annoyance while Tara waved back at him.

Kyla sent her a confused look, to which Tara responded with, "Sorry. Habit."

"It's fine. Let's just go set up," Kyla said before the both of them walked over to the empty space and put their food and drinks down, followed by their chairs. Kyla looked over her shoulder and saw Rafe, Topper, and Kelce staring right at the three Pogues that decided to come. Kyla sighed, wanting to know what was going on. "Uh...I'll be right back," Kyla told Tara, standing up from her crouch.

"K, don't take too long," Tara said as she had trouble setting up her chair. Kyla nodded and made her way over to the Pogues

"Please tell me that you did not bring a gun here. JJ, there are kids," was the first thing Kyla heard, coming from Kiara's mouth.

Kyla's eyes widened and she crouched next to them. "A gun?" she questioned, making them all look at her wildly. "You seriously brought a gun to this thing?"

"No! Ladies, I didn't bring the gun, all right?Everything's fine, okay?" JJ said, but both sisters weren't convinced.

"Oh, wow, thank you. That's really convincing. I love that, JJ," Kiara replied sarcastically.

"What is wrong with you?" Kyla questioned. "And why are my friends staring you down like you just sunk their boat?"

JJ and Pope glanced at each other, wondering how she got it so spot on. "That doesn't concern you, princess," JJ replied, making Kyla roll her eyes and shake her head, getting up from her crouch to walk away from the trio. If they weren't going to tell her, then she just shouldn't even waste her time on them.

・・・・☆・・・・☆ ・・・・

As Kyla watched the movie, she couldn't pay attention like Tara was. She kept glancing at her sister and her friends, making sure they weren't up to something. And once she saw JJ and Pope get up and walk away, she turned to Tara and said, "Hey, I'm gonna go to the bathroom."

Tara hummed in return, too fixated on the movie to process Kyla's words. Kyla then got up from her seat and walked over to Kiara, crouching down so she didn't block anyone's path. She then sat in the empty chair that Pope had left open.

Kiara sighed and rolled her eyes, looking over at her sister. "What are you doing? The boys will be back in a second. They're just taking a piss," Kiara told her.

"Okay, first, TMI. And second, I wanted to know what is going on between them and—"

"And the Kooks?" Kiara cut her off, making Kyla give her a look. "No idea. They didn't tell me," Kiara told her. "But if I did know, I wouldn't even tell you anyway," she added, sending Kyla a smug look.

Kyla scoffed quietly. "Wow," she said, shaking her head. "You're—"

"Unbelievable? Yeah, I think I've heard that word come out of your mouth about, 50 times now," Kiara cut her off. "Stop being so predictable. It gets old after a while."

"There's a difference between being predictable and careful, Kiara. I just want to make sure no one is trying to kill each other here," Kyla explained and Kiara just shook her head in disbelief. "What, Kiara?"

"You only want to make sure your Kook friends and your Kook boyfriend aren't getting hurt. You don't give two shits about my friends," Kiara said.

"Who was the one that helped Pope after Topper and Rafe jumped him?" Kyla asked, raising her eyebrows.

Kiara's eyes immediately widened. "Wait, what?!" she whisper-shouted.

"Wait, they didn't tell you?" Kyla asked, her brows now furrowing in confusion. If they didn't tell Kiara, that must have meant they did something in retaliation...right?

"No!" Kiara told her before she looked over her shoulder. "Shit."

"What?" Kyla asked, following her gaze to see that Rafe, Topper, and Kelce were no longer sitting in their seats. She then realized that Pope and JJ were taking a little too long going to the bathroom. "Oh, no," Kyla breathed out.

"Come on," Kiara said before the two sisters got up from their chairs, and quickly made it over behind the big movie screen to see the guys fighting. "Let go of him, Topper! You fascist asshole!" Kiara yelled as she started hitting Topper with her bag she brought with her.

"Rafe, stop!" Kyla yelled once she saw Kelce holding JJ as Rafe punched him.

"Hey, listen, Pope. All you gotta do—"

"Topper, stop it!" Kiara yelled as she jumped onto his back.

"—is accept personal responsibility, all right?" Topper finished as Kiara punched him on his back.

"Kiara, get off of him!" Kyla yelled, not wanting her sister to get hurt. She quickly moved towards her sister, trying to pull her off of Topper's back.

"Screw you, Kook!" Pope shouted in Topper's face.

Rafe then quickly punched JJ and moved over towards the others, pushing Kyla out of the way and grabbing onto Kiara. "Rafe!" Kyla yelled, now behind him.

"Oh, let go of me, Rafe!" Kiara shouted before Rafe picked her up and dropped her onto the ground.

"Rafe, what the hell?!" Kyla bellowed, going over towards Kiara.

"Stay out of this, girls!" Rafe shouted as Kyla crouched down next to her sister.

"Kie! You okay?" Pope asked before Topper put him in a chokehold.

Kyla's eyes widened before she looked back down at Kiara. "Hey, are you—"

"I'm fine," Kiara cut her off, pushing up from the ground.

"Come on, man. Just admit it!" Topper yelled at Pope. "Admit you did it, bitch!"

"Topper, let go of him!" Kyla yelled as she stood up from her crouch, trying to figure out a way to stop this. She then looked over towards Rafe and Kelce to see that Rafe was still punching JJ. "Rafe, that's enough!"

"You don't mess with me, Pogue! You hear me?" Topper continued, ignoring Kyla's shouts. "I'm gonna give you one chance."

"Topper!" Kyla shouted as she made her way over towards him since Pope was close to passing out, which meant he wasn't going to be able to breathe in a second.

"One chance, Pope! One chance. Come on! One! Got anything you wanna say, bro?" Topper questioned before Kyla put a hand on his bicep, trying to pull his arm way from Pope. But, on instinct, he brought his elbow up and elbowed her in the nose, sending her back. "Come on! You got something you wanna say?" Topper continued like he didn't just hurt Kyla.

Kyla fell backwards, bringing a hand up to her now throbbing nose. She felt something wet so she brought her hand down and saw a dark substance on her hands. Blood. She let out a loud wince mixed with a sob, looking up to see that Topper was still strangling Pope.

"Finish him off, Top!" Rafe yelled, making Kyla look over at him in complete shock.

She then felt her back start to immediately heat up, so she looked behind her to see the screen was on fire! She gasped and crawled away from it, a hand still on her nose to try and stop the bleeding.

"Guys! Fire!" Rafe told his friends.

"Get off of him!" Kiara yelled at Topper before the blonde dropped Pope to the ground, making Pope cough and wheeze. "Kelce, let go of JJ!" Kiara shouted, making Kelce let go of JJ.

"Kyla!" Rafe called out, making his way over to her once he saw the bleeding girl. "Kyla, are you—"

"Just get away from me, Rafe!" Kyla screamed, her voice raspy as she gave him a scary look.

"But—"

"I said, get away from me!" she cut him off, not messing around. Rafe then slowly started to back away, giving Kyla one last look before he turned to and put a hand on Topper's shoulder.

Kyla then looked down at the grass, keeping her hand on her nose, but she couldn't get it to stop. "Hey, hey," JJ said as he placed a hand on Kyla's arm, his voice strained. "The bleeding isn't gonna stop that way, come on," he told her before he helped her up from the ground. "Hold your face up a bit and pinch the soft part of your nose. It should stop in a few minutes," he explained.

She did as he said, glancing over at him. "Do I wanna know how you're so quick to know this?" she asked, taking a deep breath in through her mouth.

JJ shrugged, wiping at his mouth that was bleeding a bit. "I don't think your little princess heart would be able to handle it," he teased, making Kyla roll her eyes.

"What the fuck happened?" Tara questioned with wide eyes, making the remaining four of them look over at her.

"And that's our cue to leave," JJ muttered before he walked over to Kiara and Pope, urging them to go.

Tara quickly walked over to Kyla, her eyes widening even more once she saw the girl's nose bleeding. "Oh, my God. Here, I'll bring you back to my place," she said, placing an arm around the girl's shoulder.

"No!" Kyla quickly said since she didn't want to see Topper after what he had just did to her. Tara gave her a confused look, but in actuality, she was annoyed since she just wanted to know what had gone on. "I mean, no. If I don't get home, my parents will be worried. You can just drive me back."

"Okay..."
