live streams // drew starkey blurb

It was common for all the cast members of Outer Banks to go live on Instagram. If Drew was with other cast members, you’d often keep to yourself by staying in the kitchen or your all’s shared bedroom. It had nothing to do with being camera shy or the fans hating you – it was quite the opposite actually; they adored you and begged for you to join the live streams more often. While they only saw bits and pieces of your relationship with Drew, they thought the two of you balanced each other out perfectly; you were the calm to his storm, the peanut butter to his jelly, the yin to his yang. They also thought your behind the camera side comments were absolutely hilarious. No, the reason you stayed in the background was to allow your boyfriend and his co-workers/friends to have these special moments together, which was well deserved.

On this particular day, Austin and Drew occupied the living room while you sat at the kitchen island, messing around on your phone. Maddie had unexpectedly left due to Wi-Fi issues, allowing Nick to join in on the camaraderie.

“Drew, forreal, quit messing around and take the pants off,” Nick’s words caught your attention, “I’m not playing anymore.”

“Wait,” you yelled, causing both men to jump out of surprise. You hopped off the stool, running around the kitchen looking for your purse, “Lemme get my ones!”

Drew lost it as you ran down the short hallway, remembering you left your wallet in your bedroom.  

“Take your pants off right now. Take ‘em off,” Nick said as you re-entered the living room.

You began throwing one-dollar bills into the air as Drew jumped up onto the couch, jokingly messing with his belt, “Yeah, baby! Wooo! Take them off!”

Austin’s eyes were now as wide as saucers, “woah, woah, woah – no, no, no. We can’t, we can’t do this.”

Thinking about how Jake was actually encouraging/rooting for Bradley once he manages to get behind Mav’s jet during that first training exercise (“You’ve got him Rooster, now drop down and take the shot!” -but Rooster hesitates- “Same old Rooster.” etc etc)

Bob: Just be yourself.

Hangman: Really? Bob, I have one day to win over Y/N’s parents.

Hangman: How long did it take for you guys to like me?

Coyote: Couple of weeks.

Fanboy: Six months.

Payback: Jury’s still out.

Hangman: See Bob? ‘Just be yourself,’ what kind of garbage advice is that?!

understandable // bradley bradshaw

just a lil’ blurb

warnings: none

Bradley’s eyes were locked on his wife as she chased their chubby, squealing toddler around their yard. He and Maverick nursed their beers, both in their own thoughts. Bradley was beaming as he thought about how fortunate he was – he had his dream job, his dream girl, a beautiful baby girl and another one on the way, the perfect house, the perfect car…the list was endless. Maverick thought about Carol and Goose and how proud they would be of their son. On days like these, he would do anything to trade places with them.

“I understand why you did it now.”

The confusion on Maverick’s was very apparent. His eyebrows were furrowed as he tried to figure out what the man next to him, who would always be a kid in his eyes, was talking about.

Bradley brought the bottle to his lips one more time, “Why you pulled my papers.”

Mav tensed up slightly at the subject but said nothing, letting Rooster continue.

I resented you for a really, long time, Mav,” the taller man spoke truthfully, “but as soon as Nicole was born, it just, it clicked. I can’t even explain it. The first time held her in my arms, she was just so small like a cute potato. And when her little finger wrapped around mine, I knew right then and there that I would do absolutely anything to keep her safe. I just wanted you to know.”

The deep-felt confession meant a lot to the older man, but he could tell Rooster was done with the emotional soapbox, which is why he redirected the conversation, “Do you all have any names picked out?”  

Bradley smiled, “Caroline Lucille Bradshaw for a girl and Peter David Bradshaw for a boy. We find out in two weeks.”

bradley telling his mom that he’s sure now. he wants to be a pilot like his dad. he thinks it’s what he’s meant to do.

carole telling mav.

(he already knows.)

begging him to talk bradley out of it. she’s already lost one of her boys. she can’t lose them both to this job.

maverick knowing there’s nothing he could say to change bradley’s mind. the kid’s a pilot. he’s meant to be in the sky.

(sometimes, mav wonders if bradley feels closer to his dad when he’s up there. wonders if he can hear him better. mav’s always felt like goose’s voice is stronger above the clouds.)

//

she’s dying. carole’s dying and she begs him. pleads with him to keep bradley on the ground. and mav’s about to lose her, things have been touch and go with ice’s illness, and - christ. yeah. he can’t let go of bradley, too.

he pulls bradley’s papers. when the kid finds out, he looks so hurt. so betrayed, so confused, and mav can’t tell him why.

bradley turns and walks away. promises he’s never coming back.

mav believes him.

IF Rafe and Y/N had a third kid, I could see him saying something along the lines of, “we’re moving from man to man to zone to zone defense”

this is hilarious and i could not agree more. he comes up with a whole game plan and a playbook and everything

Coconuts // Jake “Hangman” Seresin

a/n: this was an idea that popped into my dirty little mind yesterday and i don’t write smut, so if anyone wants to roll with this and make it a full thing, i give you my full permission as long as you give me credit

warnings: sexual content

“So what word are you spelling out this time,” Jake, your boyfriend, asked as you rolled your hips into his. He didn’t even try to hide his cocky grin as his thumbs went from rubbing your thigh to squeezing the flesh on your hips. 

His question caused her roll her head back, laughing, “Oh fuck, off.” 

Months ago she had told him about how women will spell out the word “coconut” while they were on top. At that moment in time, she didn’t think anything of it. Continuing her movements she said, “I knew I shouldn’t have told you that.” 

“Oh, don’t be like that, darlin,” his southern drawl came out thick. It was always more intense during and after a night in the sheets or couch or bathroom or wherever they were. His lips pressed to her neck, “What word? Cause I know you aren’t spelling coconut this time...”

Her grip on his broad shoulders got tighter as she leaned back to look at his face. A mischievous smile fell upon her face before her lips and tongue made their way from his collar bone up his neck and to his ear, “You really wanna know?”

“Baby, please,” he begged, which was rare coming from him so when an opportunity arose she’d always take it. “Hmm,” she teased.

An audible moan was the only response she needed, waiting a few more seconds before she sultrily whispered, “I’m spelling Hangman.”

Carefree // JJ Maybank Pt I

Summary: A new girl moves to the OBX and before he even knows her, JJ is falling her for...hard; however, she’s a Kook and all Kooks are the same...aren’t they?

Warnings: swearing, underage drinking

Word Count: 3,333 (angel numbers, baby)

The group of Pogues were driving through Figure 8 on their way back to The Chateau for their usual summer escapade: smoking beers, drinking weed, hammocking, fishing on the HMS Pogue, whatever their rowdy little hearts desired. Although their summer break had just started a few days ago, they were determined to make this one the most memorable one yet.

JJ, Kie, and Pope’s attention went to the nearly full U-Haul van parked on the side of the road, watching as the movers carried the mahogany dining table and its accompanying upholstered chairs, meanwhile John B stole a quick glance before refocusing his attention back to the road.

Kie sat back in her seat, all interest in the new family now gone once she laid her brown eyes on the navy-blue jeep – one of the many vehicles (four to be exact) sitting in the driveway of the large house, “And people wonder why our planet’s dying.”

JJ shrugged as he caught Pope’s stare. Ignoring her expected tangent about carbon emissions and microplastics, they watched as a man with salt and pepper hair around his mid-40’s handed his son, named Ryan, a large box labeled “kitchen”. JJ assumed he couldn’t have been more than three years older than them.

At the feeling of being watched, Ryan turned to the dingy brown van. Despite feeling like a circus animal on parade, he bro-nodded at the two teens, who name no effort to hide the fact that they were staring. His friendly gesture was met with hostility as JJ rolled his eyes, turning his back on the hazel eyed boy, “He’ll fit in great with Topper and Rafe.”

The Volkswagen van continued on down the road just as Clarissa excitedly waked down the driveway to retrieve another one of her boxes.

The first time JJ Maybank and Clarissa Davenport saw each other was a couple of weeks later once the moving process had settled giving her a chance to finally explore her new home.

Behind the blond skateboarder, the sound of someone hooting and hollering intensified. He politely moved out of the middle of the road just as the familiar jeep, which was now missing its top, came to a slow halt at the stop sign next to him.

And there she was…

In a blue and white striped sundress, hanging out of the top of the car, hands in the air, long blonde hair blowing every which way. A few strands stuck to her face, but it didn’t seem to bother her. JJ subconsciously licked his lips at the sight of her. Her head was tilted slightly back, eyes closed as she took in everything: the feeling of the sun peaking through the leaves as it touched her sun-kissed skin, the salty smell of the ocean combined with the summer air, the sound of the birds chirping sweetly as they flew from branch to branch. She looked serene, just enjoying the moment. And that’s exactly how she lived – carefree and living for every moment she was blessed with.

As she moved her disheveled hair out of her face, her eyes opened revealing the most gorgeous misty grey-blue shade, reminding JJ of the clouds he’d seen over the ocean right before a storm. She gave him a soft smile as they drove off, “Ow, ow!”

Her voice eventually faded, and the rambunctious teen continued on his merry way unable to get her out of his mind. If you had asked him, JJ would’ve sworn up and down that this all happened in slow-mo. It was common knowledge that he’d hooked up with a few girls here and there but none of them were remotely close to her. But at the end of the day, she was a Kook, full of daddy’s money, always getting what she wants.

Their paths crossed a few days later. He was with John B and Pope on their way to pick up Kiara while she was riding bikes with her new friend Savanna. Her baby blue crop top highlighted her eyes while her cut off jean shorts made her tanned legs look longer, completing her casual look with a plain white bucket hat and Birks.

JJ couldn’t hear the conversation that was going on between the two girls, but he could see her head go backwards. Her loud boisterous laugh was so infectious, it caused the corners of his mouth to curve upwards, forming the tiniest smile. JJ wondered if they could hear her on the other side of Kildare.

She released the handlebars, putting her arms straight out like a bird about to take flight, “C’mon, Nan, keep up!”

In that moment, John B and Pope realized just how smitten their friend was. Normally, JJ was a natural when it came to girls, always knowing exactly what to say to and what to do make them blush and become all giggly, which is why they couldn’t understand what made Clarissa so different. The tall brunette waited 30 more seconds, thinking his best friend would snap himself out of his trance.

He couldn’t contain his laughter any longer, “You got it bad, bro.”

JJ scoffed, trying to play it cool, “Pfft. Nah, man.”

Pope also busted out laughing, “You look like a fucking iPad kid.”

“Oh, fuck you dude.”

Pope tried to contain his laughter so he could ask the question, “Why don’t you just talk to her instead of staring at her like a fucking creep?”

“Pope giving JJ relationship advice…mark that one off your bingo cards,” John B teased.

JJ flipped both of them off before his mind quickly shifted to the reality of his situation, “Doesn’t matter cause she’s a Kook.”

John B’s eyebrows arched as he looked to the occupied passenger seat, “Sarah was a Kook.”

“Sarah’s different.”

JB held up his hands, playfully admitting defeat. Pope copying his actions, “Alright, alright.”

He stole one last glance just in time to see her quickly place her hand on top of her head, preventing her hat from flying away. Clarissa stopped pedaling, her mint-colored bike coming to an eventual stop, allowing the brown-haired girl to catch up. She nodded her head in the direction that the van headed, “Hey, who was that?”

“John B,” Savanna questioned, trying to determine which guy her friend was asking about, “Brown hair?”

“No, blond.”

Savanna was hesitant to answer, “That would be JJ.”

“I was just wondering cause I’ve seen him around a couple of times but like I’ve never actually talked to him or anything.”

“Good,” her friends dislike was evident, “He’s the lowest of the low. Just be careful around him.”

Clarissa couldn’t tell if JJ – it felt weird to finally know his name – was actually a bad guy or if it was just the whole “Kooks versus Pogues” mentality she was still grasping to understand.

She categorized as a Kook, but the truth was she’d spent most of her life as lower-middle class. When she was six years old, her dad lost his job nearly leaving them homeless. Even through that, they always had food on the table and somehow her parents still managed to make Christmas magical with presents from a secondhand store.

Regardless of what people say, everyone is prejudice. Clarissa felt this firsthand when her family transitioned to upper-middle class. Rich bitch. Spoiled brat. Daddy’s money. Trust fund baby. She knew those were just a few of the insults people hurled at her behind her back and every so often when they were brave enough to face, never taking the time to get to know her. And it bothered her when others did this. She hoped her friend was sincerely looking out for her and not the other way around.

The next night he was headed to The Chateau after yet another fight with his dad. It was a quarter past 11 when she stumbled out of the marina’s tiny gas station carrying a bag of candy. It was a stark contrast to the anger he felt at the hands of someone who was supposed to take care of him and love him unconditionally but seeing her and hearing her angelic laugh relieved that anger just a tiny bit.

Ryan trailed behind her carrying a bag of miscellaneous snacks and drinks. The blonde girl halted, turning on her heels to face him, holding out her hand, “My drink, kind sir.”

“I thought you got it?”

“Ha-ha. You’re so funny,” her sarcastic response was short lived. She searched his face, waiting for him to falter and give in but when he didn’t her face changed to look like a lost puppy dog, “You really forgot?”

“The fact that you thought I’d forget, it hurts…right here,” he placed his hand over his heart, “You’d think after 16 years of living with me you’d have a little more faith in your dear old brother.”

She rolled her eyes at his theatrics, “Yeah, yeah. I get it; you’re the best big brother ever and how could I ever doubt you. Blah blah blah. Can I have my drink now?”

Continuing the bit, he rolled his eyes before placing the vibrant pink can in her open palm.

“Oh helllll yea,” she quickly popped open the can with her manicured lavender fingernails, “Ah, delicious.”

It was too dark for her to notice JJ but he chuckled as she literally climbed into her brother’s car. Despite the late hour and the high likelihood of people sleeping, she plugged her phone into the aux cord putting Jack Harlow on full blast. JJ’s attention went back to kicking the small rock once the jeep pulled out of the tiny parking lot.

For the next few days, JJ was constantly conversing with himself, prepping himself for when he finally got the chance to talk to her, not wanting to make a complete fool out of himself. 

He ran his ringed fingers through his messy hair, putting his backwards hat on his head once again, growing more and more frustrated with himself, “Fucking cabrón.”

His other hand was holding on tight to the multiple bags of groceries he was carrying. Why was it so hard to talk to her? He’d talked to plenty of girls before and he’d had no issues and in that moment he decided against using a pickup line. 

His gaze scanned the balcony, needing to do a double take to confirm what he thought he saw. A lot chuckle escaped his lips as he shook his head in disbelief, “I fucking knew it.”

Leaning over the wooden railing of the country club was Clarissa. Behind her Ryan was talking to none other than Rafe, Topper, Kelce, and a few other of their goonies. She adjusted her sunglasses that had fallen down the bridge of her nose. Her lips curved upwards when she spotted him on the outskirts of the property. She gave him a small wave, shocked when he gave her the cold shoulder but even more so at how much the gesture hurt her considering they had yet to speak to one another. 

Noah, one of Topper’s friends, joined her alongside the balcony, handing her a vodka cranberry, “You can’t expect anything less from them.”

She thanked him for the kind gesture, attempting to hide her disappointment with a small smile, unsure if she was successful. 

The first time the two teens spoke was that weekend at the Boneyard. The sun was setting, leaving the sky a multitude of fading blues and pinks and oranges. The waves were transitioning with the tide as the moon made its appearance up above. Moments where the Kooks and Pogues inhabited the same space without at least one fight were rare but so far so good as both parties were jam packed together. 

“But why not? He’s hot as fuck...and rich,” Savanna muttered the last part. The brunette grew more and more intoxicated with each sip, “I just don’t get why you won’t go on one date. Just one. Ya know? Have fun and just - just live...a little.

Savanna followed her best friend’s gaze all the way to the blond kleptomaniac sitting on a piece of driftwood, “Earth to Clarissa. Hellllooooooooo. Well if you do end up talking to him, count your money afterwards.” 

Clarissa bit her tongue, “Why do you always have to do that?”

“Do what, tell you the truth? I don’t know, Clarissa, maybe because you’re my friend and I actually care about you.”

The spat between the two wasn’t loud but it definitely garnered the attention of the people closest to them. Beer sloshed out of Savanna’s cup as she let out a loud laugh, “Oh, and you do?”

Clarissa closed her eyes, and breathed threw her nose thinking carefully about what she wanted to say next, “I’m just saying, he could be the nicest person but you won’t take a second to get to know him because you all are so stuck up in this fucking Kook fantasy world.” 

Another loud laugh left her friend’s lips, “Yeah, okay. Go ask Topper how nice JJ Maybank is.” The alcoholic beverage met her lips once more. 

Brick by brick, word by word a wall of tension was built between the two girls just like it did every time they had this conversation. Savanna would be the one to eventually break the silence, “I’m just trying to look out for you. I really think you should give Noah a chance. He’s smart and sweet and respectful. He’s not really into hook ups. He’s tall and athletic. He likes you too. Oh and speaking of, here he comes - Hey, Noah!” 

His hazel eyes lingered on the petite blonde, greeting them once he made his way over to them. Savanna’s words lingered in Clarissa’s mind - he was attractive, there was no denying that. With his picture perfect smile because of his straight white teeth. And his olive skin that had turned into the most beautiful tan. His hair was dark brown bordering black, reminding her of coffee beans. His eyes were brown like honey with specks of green that shined in direct sunlight. He was beautiful but there was an attraction towards the other boy, that had a clear view of the trio, despite being so far away. 

His jaw was tight as he watched the scene unfold. Was she smiling to be polite? He doubted it. He wasn’t drunk enough for this. He chugged the remnants of his cup, holding it up to his friends, “Anyone need another?”

John B and Sarah both raised their empty plastic cups. 

Clarissa’s gaze was constantly going back and forth between Noah and the spot JJ occupied. Peaking over his shoulder, she found the spot now abandoned. Peering through the crowd, she found him making his way towards the alcohol. Now was her chance, “Excuse me.” 

Pope was the first to notice her as she weaseled her way through everyone. He swatted his hands, trying to get the attention of the other Pogues. All eyes were on the unfolding situation.

“Hey,” she said, standing behind him. 

JJ peaked over his shoulder, expecting a touron, “Oh, hey.”

She fiddled with her fingers, waiting a few seconds to see if he said anything else. His attention remained on refilling the cups, “I’m Clarissa.”

“JJ.”

She tilted her head, silently begging him to engage in conversation, “You mind pouring me one?”

He licked his lips, finally facing her. He wasn’t as tall as Noah but he still towered over her small frame. Holding the cups up, he spoke once more “I gotta get back to my friends.” 

“Oh, yeah, of course,” word vomit oozed from her lips due to being embarrassed. 

JJ nodded his head behind her, “I gotta...”

“Shit, yeah, uh - sorry.”

He smirked, finding this entertaining before remembering who she was. She moved over, allowing him to pass by and get a whiff of his cologne. She felt deflated, knowing the probability of her friends watching were high. For a moment, she stood there contemplating what to do next, processing what just happened. She always tried to give people the benefit of the doubt but maybe, just maybe Nan was right. 

A cough broke her out of these thoughts. Behind her, a long line of people were waiting for the beer, which she happened to be blocking, “Fuck...I’m so sorry.”

She moved out of the way, finally meeting her friends’ gaze. Noah’s eyes were filled with concern, debating if he should be the hero and sweep her off her feet. She knew exactly what Nan would say. What’d you expect? I told you so. Got all of your money? 

Meanwhile the Pogues were speechless. John B shook his head in shock, “Dude?!?”

In all actuality, he meant what the fuck was that. 

The blond rolled his eyes, handing his best friend his cup or at least he’d hoped it was his. 

“Yeah, that was kinda harsh,” Kie said, taking a sip of her drink. 

Slightly more intoxicated than the rest of them, Sarah shrugged, “I mean she does hang out with my brother and ex-boyfriend.” 

In true JJ fashion, he dramatically threw his hands in Sarah’s direction, somewhat shocked that she took his side, “It’s the way the world works. Rich girl meets rich boy. They fall in love, get married, have rich snobby babies and thus, the cycle continues.”

He brought his cup to his lips, wishing it was stronger, “I told you when they first moved her; A new Kook princess has been crowned.”

They didn’t say anything to one another for the next two weeks. She no longer smiled at him because that’s what she thought he wanted, while he thought it further proved his point on her being a stuck-up bitch. John B noticed both of them stealing glances when they did pass each other. 

 She walked out of the gas station with her usual Arizona and Airheads, putting her sunglasses back on. There he was, sitting at the edge of the marina. She had two options – number 1: she could continue to ignore him and walk away, continuing to harbor a grudge or number 2: she could talk to him.

She swung her leg over her bike, but stood frozen in place. “Fuck this,” she whispered to nobody in particular. She was fed up of the attitude and judgement. She set her bike against the rotting wood rail before sauntering down the dock towards him.

She sat down a few feet from him, staring straight at the ocean. He was speechless at her audacity. Before he could say anything she spoke first, “It’s a public dock, right?”

He bit his lip before nodding, staring back at the waves, “Yeah, I guess it is.”

They sat there for a minute of tense silence before she spoke once more, “So like are you ever gonna talk to me?”

For the second time, she didn’t let him get a single word out, “Like, I get that I’m new here and there’s this whole “Pogues vs Kooks” which I don’t really fuckin get but I think it’s complete bullshit.”

You don’t know shit about me but yet for the past couple of weeks you’ve acted like a complete dick wad. All because you what…think I’m some rich bitch? What is it that you all say – “Kook Princess?” I’ll have you know that when I was 6 my dad lost his job and we were nearly homeless. And he’s worked his fucking ass off for us .”

His eyes widened, trying not to laugh, “Dick wad? Haven’t heard that one in a while.”

She tried to hold back her smile, “Am I wrong?”

She wasn’t. And he knew that, “No, you’re right. I was definitely a dick and I’m uh, sorry. ”

For the next couple of hours, the two teenagers sat on the rotten wood as their feet dangling over the water talking and laughing about anything and everything, finally taking the time to get to know one another.
