The Pogues and I are joined by a group of Tourons and before we start the game, we get to know each other's names. Once we're all acquainted and know each other better, we sit in a circle as Pope explains the game to them.

"Whoever goes first whispers a question to the person on their right. The person to their right must answer the question out loud. The trick is, no one else in the circle knows the question" He explains, the rest of us listening carefully "Next, someone flips a flip flop up in the air. If it lands face up, the asker must say the question out loud to the whole group. If it lands face down, the asker doesn't say anything and we move to the next person"

"Any questions?" He adds and no one says anything "Great, who's first?"

"I'll go first!" A perky blonde named Carolina chirps happily.

Pope shrugs, uncaring and sits back down. The blonde turns to the person on her right and I see it's JJ. She whispers something in his ear and he smirks, looking right at me.

"Sylvie" He answers out loud and I furrow my brows in confusion.

Pope throws his flip flop in the air and it lands face down, making me frown. JJ's smirk widens and he turns to the redheaded Touron on his right named Georgia. He whispers in her ear and her face turns almost as red as her hair which makes me roll my eyes.

"My step brother" She answers aloud and I perk up in interest.

Pope throws the flip flop and it lands face up, Georgia's face paling in fear.

"Who did you lose your virginity to?" JJ repeats the question and we all look at Georgia in shock.

"Brother fucker" Georgia's friend Luna coughs out and the redhead shoots her a glare.

A couple more Tourons go before it comes to Kiara's turn. The dark haired boy named Harry whispers in her ear and she rolls her eyes with a smile.

"Definitely Sylvie" She answers and I tilt my head in curiosity.

The flip flop lands face up and Kiara looks completely unbothered.

"If your friends were hanging off a cliff, who would you save first?" Harry repeats the question and I grin widely.

"Hey!" John B and JJ whine in unison while Pope shakes his head.

"Sorry, boys" Kiara smiles, winking at me.

I wink back at her and she turns to the person on her right continuing the game. I kind of zone out until I hear my name for the third time during this game.

"Sylvie" A curly haired brunette by the name of Joshua says and I sit up straight, snapping out my daze.

The flip flop lands face up and Joshua sheepishly smiles at me, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.

"If you had to cover someone in this circle in peanut butter and lick it off them, who would it be?" Astrid repeats her question and my brows raise, a smile tugging at my lips.

"I might take you up on that" I comment confidently and his smile widens.

As he turns to the guy on his right, I feel eyes burning into me and I look around the circle until my eyes land on JJ who is staring right at me. I raise a brow at him and give him a look that says 'what's up?'. He shrugs in reply and looks away, leaving me confused.

It gets to my turn and the dark haired girl, Estelle, turns to me with a friendly smile.

"Have you ever wanted someone you couldn't have? If yes, then who?" She whispers and I hesitate.

"My step brother" I answer, trying my best to act serious but my smile grows and everyone laughs loudly except Georgia who glares at me playfully "I'm kidding. Sorry, Georgia"

She shrugs and I shake my head in amusement. Everyone waits for my real answer and I sigh, picking at the loose thread on my shorts.

"JJ" I answer out loud and the Maybank boy's gaze snaps up from the sand to me.

Pope throws the flip flop in the air and I slyly cross my fingers. The flip flop lands face down and JJ's eyes burn into me but I ignore him, turning to the guy on my right.

"If you're kicking somebody's ass in this group, who is it?" I whisper.

"John B" Miles answers aloud with a shrug and I grin in amusement, nodding.

John B looks at me in confusion as Pope throws the flip flop and I smirk, winking at the brunette. The flip flop lands face down and Miles turns, continuing the game.

We go around the circle a couple more times before we decide to end it there and get back to the party.

"Hey" I hear a voice say and I turn to see Joshua with a smile on his face.

"Hi" I grin.

"I was just wondering if you wanted to go out some time?" He asks curiously.

The first thing that runs through my head is a certain blonde Maybank, but I rid the thought when I remember his words.

'It's not as if anything is ever gonna happen between us'

"Yeah, that sounds nice" I answer and he grins happily.

"How does Friday sound? There's this party I was invited to" He suggests.

"Friday is great" I grin, nodding.

"Great. I'll pick you up at nine" He tells me.

"It's a date" I chirp and he chuckles "See you then, Joshua"

"See you then, Sylvie" He replies, walking away.

"What was that?" Kiara asks, handing me a cup.

"I have a date on Friday" I answer with a happy smile.

"What about JJ?" She frowns.

"Nothing's ever gonna happen between us. He said so himself, Kie. I need to move on" I tell her and she smiles, throwing her arm around me.

"As long as you're happy, I'm happy" She assures me and I grin, pecking her cheek.

"Guys, guess who's got a hot date!" She screams, running towards the boys and I roll my eyes, running after her "Our little kookie is dating!"

"For real?" Pope asks in surprise and I nod.

"Who, that Joshua guy you just met?" JJ scoffs in a judging tone and I frown.

"Shut up, JJ" Kiara snaps at him with a glare before turning to me "We're happy for you, lovie"

"Thanks, Kie" I smile.

"I am happy for you, but JJ's got a point" John B speaks up "This guy could be bad news"

"But he might not be. He might be the one" Kiara argues optimistically.

"He might be a serial killer" Pope retorts and I look at him in disbelief.

"Why can't you guys just be happy for me? If it were one of you, you know I'd be happy for you" I growl out, storming away.

"Lovie!" Kiara yells out but I don't reply "Now look at what you've done! Idiots!"

A couple hours later it starts to get really dark and the full moon appears in the sky as everyone continues to party into the night. I sit on my lonesome with a drink in my hand and a distant look on my face as I watch the waves.

I hear commotion behind me and I turn to see JJ lunge for Topper but get pulled back by John B. I jump to my feet and race towards the boys.

"You're so funny, man!" JJ shouts sarcastically as I grab his arm, pulling him back.

"Dirty Pogues!" Topper spits in disgust.

I stand in between JJ and Kiara as John B suddenly shoves Topper back.

"Oh!" Sarah yells.

"John B! We're supposed to be incognito, remember?" Pope says, grabbing the angry brunette back.

"Babe, babe, babe, babe" Sarah says trying to calm Topper down but he ignores her, throwing a punch at John B's face.

I gasp, covering my mouth as John B falls to his hands and knees. Pope holds back a struggling JJ as Sarah frantically yells.

"Guys! Guys, chill!" Sarah panics as Topper kicks John B in the ribs making him fall onto his back into the water.

"Hey, John B, don't make me drown you like your old man, all right?" Topper sneers and I see red.

"Hey, barbie! Get your crazy boyfriend under control!" I scream at my sister, trying to lunge at Topper but I'm held back by Kiara.

"Let me hit him!" I groan, struggling in Kiara's grip but John B tackles Topper into the water making me stop as everyone starts chanting the word 'fight'.

"John B, let it go!" Pope shouts.

"Stop, you guys!" Kiara screams.

"Topper, stop!" Sarah shrieks as both boys throw punches at each other from left and right.

John B socks Topper in the face and he stumbles back.

"That's what I'm talkin' about!" JJ hollers.

"Come on!" John B barks.

"You wanna go?" Topper retorts before punching John B in the head.

"Hit him, Johnny!" I scream.

"John B!" Kiara cries.

John B manages to throw Topper into the water and the boy drags himself to his feet.

"Come on, Topper! Let's go!" John B screams.

They throw more punches before Topper socks John B in the face.

"Come on, man!" Topper yells.

Topper tackles John B into the water and starts holding his head underwater.

"Topper! Topper, stop! No!" Sarah screams.

"Johnny! Let him go, Topper!" I bark, slipping out Kiara's grip and running at the Kook.

"Sylvie, no!" Sarah shouts as I jump at Topper, tackling him into the water.

I straddle his stomach, socking him in the face and he roughly pushes me off him. My back hits the water and Topper throws his fist at my face. A pain erupts in my jaw but I suck it up, head butting him in the nose.

"You bitch!" He growls, grabbing his bloody nose.

He makes a move to grab me but suddenly JJ darts out and my eyes almost pop out my head when he pulls the gun on Topper, pressing the barrel to the boy's head.

"Yeah, you know what that is! Your move, broski!" The blonde declares.

"Come on! Chill, dude!" Kiara pleads as everyone starts screaming and running away.

"JJ! Stop!" Sarah barks at him.

"Hey, calm down" I tell the blonde, jumping to my feet next to him.

"Chill!" Pope shouts.

"Put the gun down!" Sarah demands.

"Did you say somethin', princess?" JJ snarls at the girl.

"We're good! We're good!" Topper panics.

"Put the gun down!" Sarah repeats.

"We're good! All right, man?!" Topper begs as John B sits up on his knees.

"Sylvie, can you check your psycho boyfriend, please?!" Sarah shrieks at me.

"My psycho boyfriend? Yours just tried to drown someone!" I scream in rage and she stares at me in shock.

"Okay, everybody, listen up! Get the hell off our side of the island!" JJ screams before letting off two gunshots that make me flinch.

"Are you crazy?! You idiot!" Pope freaks out.

"Stupid!" Kiara yells at the blonde, pushing him.

"Why would you do that?!" Pope snaps.

"It's not worth it!" Kiara groans.

"I'm saving their life, okay?!" JJ screams.

"I had it under control!" I retort.

"He was gonna pummel you into the ground!" The blonde argues angrily.

"Stupid! You're going to jeopardise everything!" Pope shouts.

I turn my head to see John B fall backwards into the water and my eyes widen.

"Johnny" I gasp, rushing towards him.
