".. You're getting beer in my hair!" Kiara Carrea exclaimed, glaring at JJ Maybank, who laughed, standing on the edge of the boat, trying to drink beer while the wind was strong,

The beer didn't successfully enter his mouth, flying backward into his friends, mostly Kiara.

"..let me show you how's it done, J." Wynonna Barlowe spoke up, standing up from her spot besides Pope heyward, a beer in hand as she walked over to JJ, standing next to him.

Titling her head back and lifting the beer, Titling it, it began to pour down and into her mouth,

"That's just pure luck!" JJ said, grinning, but suddenly the boat abruptly stopped, sending Wynonna and JJ flying off the boat and into the water.

"Birdy! Jayj! Are you guys okay?" Kiara questioned, cornered as she leaned against the railing of the boat, looking down.

JJ groaned, floating on his back, "I think my heels touched the back of my head."

"Pope, what did you do?"

"Sandbar. The Chanel changed." Pope replied,

"No, shit."

"Ugh, this is probably gonna mess this whole place up."

"Hey, I saved the beer, though." JJ piped up,

"Congrats, JJ." The tone was sarcastic, and JJ just grinned before a frown replaced his grin as the remark didn't come from birdy but from kiara,

JJ glanced around, "Guys, where's birdy?" He questioned,

"Birdy! Quit playing around. This isn't funny!" Kiara shouted, glancing around for any sign of her friend.

A sharp gasped was heard, making them all turn their heads towards the sound, and they all sighed in relief when they saw Wynonna,

"There's a boat down there! It's the Grady white." Wynonna told them with a grin,

When she fell into the water, she spotted something and decided to check it out, finding a sunken boat, but running out oxygen, she had to swim up before she could check it out.

"Dude, you can't just do that without telling anyone!" JJ exclaimed, splashing water at her, "kie was worried."

Wynonna smiled at kiara, "Aw, I love you too, kie."

Kiara smiled, "Glad to see the water didn't affect your brain, birdy."

"Wait, did you say there's a boat down there?" John B interrupted, and Wynonna nodded,

"Oh, yeah, I'm going back down to check it out." She replied,

"What, no." JJ quickly protested, shaking his head as he swam over to her,

"Well, you have to catch me to stop me." Wynonna told him before taking a huge breath of air and sinking down, disappearing below the water.

JJ didn't waste any time following after her, and John B turned to look at Pope and Kiara before shrugging and jumping off the boat, following after Wynonna and JJ.

"God, I hate it when they do things like this." Kiara mumbled under her breath as she waited beside Pope,

Pope and kiara waited for only a few moments before their friends emerged from the water, gasping for air,

"We found something!" JJ exclaimed in excitement,

"What is it?" Pope questioned,

"A key."
