Juniper chuckled as she ran through the wet sand as constant rain hit her body as thunder roared through the sky as she ran with her surf blared with Liam following close behind her "Hey, wait!" he said as he ran after her as he listened to her giggles as she ran through the sand as the sound was almost music to his ears.

He chuckled as he ran after her as she suddenly stopped a few feet from the strong waves of water as the looked out into the storming sea as Liam slowed down as he stood beside her as he watched the strong waves before looking down at her "You sure about this?" He asked and she hummed with a grin before turning her head as she looked at him "It's just a little danger" She said with a mischievous grin before she chuckled sprinting towards the ocean as Liam chuckled "Wait up!" he yelled as he ran behind her .

"wooo!" She yelled as she grabbed her board as she paddled over the strong waters as she searched for a surfeble wave as she smirked seeing one as she paddled quickly before standing as the adrenaline pumped through her blood as she laughed happily as she road the wave as she heard clapping as she looked and saw Liam sitting on his board with a font smile as he watched when suddenly she lost her balance "shit!" she yelled as she fell off her board and into the crashing waves as everything went dark.

༄༄༄

Juniper gasped for air as she suddenly chocked on water as it filled her lungs as she coughed it up hunching over as she coughed all the water out her lungs as she took in the sound of eagles, and the burning of the seen on her skin, and the feel like of dirt under her fingers as she squinted her eyes open to see the beech as she looked forward towards the ocean she almost drowned in.

She groaned as the bright sun took her vision as she looked around looking for a certain boy when she looked behind her seeing Liam sleeping as he laid on his stomach, body and hair covered in sand as she chuckled at the sight as she gazed down at him as she looked around taking in the morning.

Then it hit her. morning. she wasn't at the chateau. John b doesn't know where she is. "Shit!" She cursed as she ran a hand through her hair as she sat in thought before turning and shaking Liam" Liam! wake up" She spoke as she softly slapped his face making him groan as he huffed. "I saved your ass, the least you can do is let me sleep" He grumbled and she groaned as she continued to shake him. "Seriously! wake up! my brothers gonna fucking kill you if i'm not back in fifteen minutes" She spoke and he began to actually wake up and adjust as what she said actually dawned on him.

"Oh, shit okay let's go" He said his voice still hoarse but still stood as he helped her up as they walked towards the chateau. Juniper sprinted through the sand that turned to grass and then to concrete as she ran towards the chateau before she head Liam groan "Gosh, why are we always running?" she heard him mumbled to himself but she didn't respond as she ran through the chateau lawn as she ran onto the porch and opened the door to see the living room surprisingly empty. "John b?" she asked asked in confusion as she stepped into her house. She looked into the kitchen as it was also empty as she looked to her brothers room to see it was empty as well as Liam finally walked in as he looked at her also confused "JJ?" she called out as she looked into the guest room which was also empty.

Liam sighed as he watched the girl look aimlessly around the house as he leant against the front door, "Give it a rest Jun, there not here" He said and Juniper groined as she walked back from searching the bathroom "I just don't understand, where are they? i mean John b wouldn't leave without telling me, right?" She asked and Liam hummed as he spoke "Maybe it's a misunderstanding, you weren't home yesterday meaning you don't even know if he was so he might not even knew you were gone" He said and Juniper stayed quiet because he did have a point.

Liam watched her as she stayed silent as he walked towards her with a soft smile "How about you take a shower, and after we can just chill around. yea?" He asked and Juniper nodded as she sighed before returning his soft smile "I'd like that"

   "𝐒o why do you like this so much?" Liam asked in confusion as his gaze was fixed onto the TV as he leant against Juniper as they watched Too All The Boys I've Loved Before. Juniper scoffed "um hello? Peter Kavinsky, Duh" She said and Liam rolled his eyes "i'm so better looking than that guy" He said and Juniper shook her head "not even in your dreams" she spoke.

"For the record if that is a smuggling ship with illegal contraband on the inside of it, it probably belongs to someone else" Juniper heard the voice of Pope making her perk up to see Pope, JJ, Kiara, and her brother walk in as she sat up.

"Where were you guys?" She spoke which very obviously startled them as they turned to look at her and Liam as JJ began to speak, "Yo Juni, You will not believe what we-" JJ began to speak in excitement to tell the younger girl when suddenly John b's hand slapped over his mouth giving the boy a look before looking back at Juniper with a innocent smile.

"Nowhere, we were just out. Surfing" He said removing his hand off JJ's mouth and Juniper rolled her eyes not noticing how Kiara cocked an eyebrow at him for his words. It was so obvious they were lying, that he was lying again. "Tell the truth" She said in annoyance and John b sighed  "I am telling the truth" He said simply and Juniper just narrowed her eyes at him before shrugging turning back to the TV as she clearly had an attitude.

John b sighed as he motioned his friends towards his room as they all followed him as John b shut the door. Liam raised a brow at the situation, He wasn't new to it. Ever since the two siblings Dad died all Juniper does is complain to Liam about how John b didn't talk to her anymore, and always lying, sneaking out.  But then what could Liam do? That was something only siblings should be involved.

Liam sighed as he moved more up onto the pull out couch as he sat right beside her as her gaze still board into the TV. Liam slightly chuckled at her slight pouty face as he smirked, "Your pouting again" He said flicking her bottom lip making her scowl as she rolled her eyes "I am not" she said in annoyance but they both knew she was lying.

Liam softly smiled at her annoyance as he moved bed closer to her slightly taking a strand of her hair in between his fingers as he played at it "He'll get better, He loves you. He won't shut you out for too long" He spoke and Juniper sat silent contemplating his words before she sighed and nodded. "I really hope so" She mumbled.
