ROSIE BLAKE WAS HOLDING BACK THE URGE TO ROLL HER EYES AS SHE WAS stopped by her mother, daniella blake "and where do you think you're going?" daniella spoke up as she placed her beer bottle on the coffee table

daniella walked around the coffee table to stand in front of her daughter who had just walked out of her bedroom "out" rosie simply replied

daniella shook her head "no, you already went out yesterday" her mother replied

rosie scoffed "oh, so now all of a sudden you decide to care when i go out?" the brunette girl sarcastically questioned

daniella took a step closer to her daughter "you better watch your mouth" she hissed

rosie fought back the urge to argue, a knock on their door is what cut the tension. rosie figured it was either jj or john b, so she tried to walk forward, but a yelp left her lips as daniella grabbed a fist full of her hair "i said you aren't going anywhere" she insisted, before pulling rosie back by her hair and pushing her into the wall

a groan left rosie's lips, as daniella opened the door, her angry demeanor quickly wiped off her face and a smile creeped on her lips as she comes eye to eye with her newest boyfriend, fp jones "h-hey, baby" daniella nervously stutters

fp jones had a smirk on his face as he scans daniella up and down "hey sweetheart" he grinned before daniella walked forward and wrapped her hands around his neck and connects their lips

rosie cringed at her mother locking lips with a guy she knew absolutely nothing about. seconds passed and daniella pulled away and grabbed fp's hand, dragging him into her home. but fp stopped as he came eye to eye with the sixteen year old "you must be rosie" he said as he pointed to her

rosie furrowed her brows, why would this man know her name? she thought to herself. she didn't speak, the only answer she gave was a head nod "i'm fp jones, i-it's uh, it's nice to meet you" he introduced himself

again, rosie only nodded. meanwhile daniella shook her head, she coughed, making rosie glance over at her, her mother was basically throwing daggers at her for not being polite and responding "i-it's—" rosie cut herself off when she heard a honk, she couldn't help but thank the lord above that john b and the rest of the gang were here
"nice to meet you too, fp" she quickly looked to daniella "bye mom, bye fp" she blurted out before rushing out the door, knowing daniella wouldn't say anything in front of her man candy

as she ran out the door, her best friend, jj maybank had just hopped out of john b's van. as the blue eyed blond caught gaze of the green eyed brunette, he placed his right hand against the side door of the van "hey, princess"

rosie playfully rolled her eyes at the nickname, jj always insisted in calling her. she walked right in front of him and stood on her tippy toes, she placed a lingering kiss on his cheek, as he placed his left hand on her waist, giving her side a soft squeeze "no kissing of any sorts!" kiara shouts from the passenger seat of the van

"let's go!" john b groans. a soft chuckle left rosie's lips before climbing into the van. jj making sure to check out the girl. mentally he was hating kiara's stupid 'no pogue on pogue mackin'

the drive to the kook's side of island, wasn't that long of a drive. rosie finally felt a moment of peace, as she had her head on jj's lap as the two were on the edge of the scaffolding. jj's right hand rested on the safety bar as he was holding his beer, while his left hand softly ran through rosie hair

"that's what, a three-story fall to the deck? i give you about a one-in-three chance of survival" pope spoke up, breaking rosie's peaceful silence

john b who stood at the rooftop of the house that is being renovated, his one foot hanging over the edge as he balanced his weight with a beer in his left hand "hm" john b said, licking his finger and holding up, trying to figure out which direction the wind was blowing "should i do it?" he asked as he glanced down to jj and rosie

"do a flip" rosie blurted, as jj let out a soft chuckle, which made the two glance at each other. jj sending her a wink, which caused the girl to playfully roll her eyes

"yeah, you should jump. i'll shoot you on the way down" pope said as he held a screw driver and pointed it at john b, pretending it was a gun and that he was shooting john b

"you'll shoot me?" john b questioned as he also pointed out his right hand, pretending it was a gun and shooting pope "pew"

"they're gonna have japanese toilets with towel warmers" kiara announces as she finished inspecting the under renovated house. she walked out of the sliding door

"of course they are, why wouldn't they?" jj asks as he becomes slightly sad, when rosie lifts her head from his lap and sits up

"this used to be a turtle habitat, but who cares about the turtles, i guess?" kiara said as she came to stand across from pope

"i can't have cold towels" jj spoke, making kiara glance up at him and rosie, before looking up at john b who was still standing on the rooftop

"can you please not kill yourself" kiara told john b

"don't spill that beer" jj warned as he took a sip from his can

"he's not gonna give you another one" rosie added as jj agreed with her 

before you know it john b drops his beer "whoa! oh, shit" he groans

"this is why we can't have nice things, john b" rosie sighs as she leans her head on jj's shoulders and reaches out to grab his beer. without a hesitation, jj handed it to her and she took a sip

"smooth" kiara mutters

"no!" john b groans as pope begins to clap "a-plus" pope mutters

"hey!" a voice calls out. making pope lean over the railing and see security

"hey, uh, security's here. let's wrap it up" pope announces as he taps on the railing

"boys are early today" john b spoke as he glared over to the security

"humpty dumpty, let's roll" jj exclaims before sliding his feet back into the scaffolding. he was quick to help up the green eyed beauty "come on, princess"

"why thank you, prince charming" she teased as she grabbed onto his hand

jj sent her a wink before climbing down the scaffolding "gary, is that you?" jj asks

"you know it's me!" gary mutters from below

"it's good too see you, gary" rosie tells the security with a smile

"yeah, you two are just asking for it" kiara mutters as she shakes her head with a grin. before jj grabs rosie by the waist and pushes her slightly in front of him as they start to run throughout the house, trying to run away from gary

as they ran down the stairs, jj almost slipped, but he managed to steady himself "hey stop!" one of the security shouts "get 'em! they're comin' your way!"

a security guard was about to grab rosie but jj pushes her aside "don't touch my girl" he warned the security guard. seeing as jj pushed rosie away, the same guard managed to grab ahold of jj, but jj pushed himself away "not much of a hugger, man!"

rosie was quick to get into the van, as john b started honking as they waited for jj and pope. the two jumped over the fence, pope falling in the process, making kj laugh "get up, pope, fatso's coming"

"come here, you little pricks!" one of the guard shouted as he collided with the fence

"bus is leaving!" john b shouts from the drivers seat as he continues to honk the horn

"come on, boys!" rosie chuckles

jj was the first to hop into the van, landing beside rosie. pope being the last one to jump in, as kiara was quick to close the sliding door, but jj pushed it back open

"check out gary, gunnin' for a raise" pope chuckled

"come on, gary!" jj teased the guard who was trying to run after the van "wait. slow down" jj told john b

"hey! you little pricks!" gary shouted as jj leaned out of the door

"guys, stop, you're gonna give him a heart attack" kiara mutters as she sits behind the passenger seat

"you're so close! you can do it. there you go" jj jokes as he throws gary a beer. he lets out a groan as gary catches it "they don't pay you enough, bro"

"jj, stop" rosie groans as she turns around from the passenger seat

jj immediately glances up at her "oh, come on princess. that sort of initiative is just begging to be punished" jj told the girl with a proud smile on his face. she shook her head before turning back and settling in her seat as john b drove them back to the cut
