About half an hour or so pass by as the young couple still found themselves stuck in the laundry room in Kelce's place. Y/n sat on the floor, her head resting against the washing machine while John B paced back and forth. They needed to get out of there before Kelce would call the cops on the Routledge boy.

The night sky was still up, the occasional sound of sirens being heard as they drove past the rather big house, the teenager they were looking for right inside the house they would drive by every few minutes. Both teenagers were worried of what Kelce was currently doing, hoping he wasn't calling the cops on John B.

"Knock, knock!" Kelce's muffled voices announces from the other side.

John B immediately shoots up. "Hey! Hey, Kelce. Please just let us out."

"I don't think so, bitch. Word on the street is that you got a bounty on your head, bro. 25K cash money, dead or alive." Kelce recalls. "Isn't that right, John B?"

"No. It's not what it seems." John B protests.

Y/n stands up, banging on the door. "Come on, Kelce! Just let us out!"

"Yeah, Kelce isn't here. It's Topper." Topper's voice reveals.

Their eyes widen as the two exchange a glance, both not knowing or expecting Topper to be there. Rather harshly, Y/n places her head against the wall with a bang as John B rubs his girlfriend's arm up and down, looking to the door.

"Hey, Top. It's John B. Look--" John B begins.

"You're gonna try to talk your way out of this? Just cut the bullshit, alright?" Topper interrupts. "Like, the chickens are roosting, brother. Like, it is over. You're in some deep shit now, man."

John B sighs. "Just listen to me! I didn't kill the sheriff. It was Rafe! Alright? Y/n and Sarah were there. They both saw the whole thing."

"Oh, it was Rafe. Okay. My bad." Topper says sarcastically.

"I get it, man. You don't believe me, and honestly, I probably wouldn't believe myself either, but... I get it, alright? Both me and Y/n do. You hate us because of Sarah." John B states.

You guys knew our relationship was perfectly fine the way it was before you guys butted in, right?" Topper asks.

Y/n scoffs loudly. "Was it, Topper? Was it really? Because from what I remember Sarah telling me, she was planning on ending it for a while. Said she didn't think it was right. She said she wanted some space to herself because you're such a clingy motherfucker!"

"You're lying." Topper replies.

Little did he know, she was telling the truth. Y/n recalls Sarah telling her she had ended it with Topper because she felt like it wasn't meant to be, that she wanted time to herself. Hopefully, she would have a relationship like hers and John B's in the future. Maybe the Maybank girl got a little carried away by the ending, as Sarah didn't actually say that, Y/n just hated Topper that much.

"Am I? I mean, you don't know if I'm lying or not, Top." Y/n reminds, raising a brow as she rests an arm on the door. "If I'm being honest Topper, I don't even get what Sarah saw in you in the first place. I mean, you're a stuck up rich kid, you sound so obsessed with anything, and you get jealous so easily, man. Your guys relationship wasn't gonna last."

"Fuck you, Maybank! Our relationship was perfect, until you convinced her to end it, you bitch!" Topper shouts before she hears him take a deep breath. "It doesn't matter right now, anyway. The cops are on their way. You're screwed, John B."

Rolling her eyes at his previous shouts, Y/n seats herself against the door, her back against it. John B places himself next to her, taking her hand in his as they all sat there for a few minutes. Eventually, the sound of sirens could be heard from outside the house, making the couple stand up, panic lacing through them.

"Alright, John B! It's Shoupe out here. We got you surrounded. We don't want any more bloodshed. We're coming in, and you're gonna let Y/n go." Shoupe's voice announces.

"What a misunderstanding, bro. Like, everyone thinks it's you, John B." Topper speaks up.

John B shakes his head. "I didn't do it. Topper! Just let us out!"

Frantically, the brunette tries to turn the doorknob but it doesn't budge, a loud rattling sound coming through. Y/n quickly looks around, hoping to find something so her boyfriend could escape. Moving something out of the way, her eyes land on a vent.

"John B, look!" Y/n whispers.

The boy follows her gaze, seeing the vent and his eyes widen. John B rushes down, being quick to try and take the vent off. Once it came off, he goes through, then turning back and holding out his hand for his girlfriend.

Y/n grabs his hand, the two running through the backyard, hearing many shouts from all around them. As they exit the backyard, jumping over a fence, soon finding themselves on the street. John B pulls Y/n behind a vehicle, peaking over and seeing Rafe and Kelce starting to walk by, shouting for the boy.

As the boys were shouting at a car driving by them, John B had grabbed a metal pipe from the bed of the truck they hid behind, throwing it over and hitting the car right in front of the two boys, making the alarm go off. Once they saw they were distracted, heading in another direction, the couple rush off hand in hand.

The Routledge boy slightly pushes his girlfriend in front of him, the two running towards the church he had showed her just a few days ago. Going into the same entrance they went through, John B closes it behind them, then motioning up the ladder. Y/n was quick to go up, John B following in suit.

Once they were up in the attic, the brunette grabs an object in hopes of defending himself and Y/n incase anyone found them up here. Just then, the sound of footsteps fill their eardrums, causing them to look over, John B quickly pushing his girlfriend behind him. What they didn't expect was for Sarah's face to show up.

As the blonde climbed up more, relieved she found her two friends, Y/n walked out from behind her boyfriend, the two girls sharing a tight hug, glad they were both okay. Just then, another sound of footsteps are heard, causing John B to stand up in front of them as Topper's face soon reveals.

"What are you doing here, Top?" John B yells.

Topper raises his hands. "Hey. Just take it easy, man. I just need to talk to Sarah. Please."

Both Y/n and John B look to Sarah who nods at them, letting Topper climb more up into the tower, his arms still raised. John B had his girlfriend behind him, the object in his hand aimed right at the Kook boy.

"What? Are you gonna try to kill me too, man?" Topper questions upon seeing the object still aimed at him.

"He didn't kill anyone." Y/n defends.

Sarah nods. "She's right, Topper."

"You kidding me? They literally brainwashed you, Sarah." Topper argues, pointing to his head.

The next thing the three knew, the boy was moving the rope to hit the bell, screaming for anyone to hear him, revealing that John B was up here. John B lunges at him, pushing him away as Sarah and Y/n rush to the rope, stopping the bell from making any sound.

Topper looks over John B's shoulder at Sarah. "Sarah, I warned you about these Pogues, didn't I?"

"He's innocent." Sarah replies.

"Then who did it, Sarah?" Topper asks.

Sarah gulps. "Rafe."

"What are you talking about?" Topper murmurs.

"Why would I say that my own brother did it... if it wasn't true?" Sarah questions. "I was there, Topper. Sheriff Peterkin was trying to arrest my father, and then Rafe shot her."

"No. Don't lie to me, Sarah." Topper hisses.

"That's my brother. Why would I lie about that?" Sarah asks.

All of a sudden, sirens fill the silent air, to which John B quickly looks out the window, seeing a police car parking right in front of the church. Sarah, Y/n and John B all exchange glances, nodding to one another as they begin to leave.

Topper quickly grabs Sarah's hand. "Sarah, you realize that I still love you. I'm the only one that loves you."

"I don't care right now, Topper!" Sarah exclaims, releasing her hand from his grip. "Do you understand what's going on? I'm sorry I ended it without explaining things. I'm sorry, but this isn't about you."

"What does that mean, Sarah?" Topper quietly whispers.

"Hey, we've gotta go." Y/n intervenes.

Topper pushes her out of the way. "Sarah, you gotta realize that I'm the only one that loves you. No one will love you as much as I do. And I can prove it. Sarah, look at me. Just let me prove it to you."

Sarah stares at him, then glancing to the couple. The next thing Topper knew, he was wearing John B's clothes while John B was wearing his. As they had begun to exit the church, fire start emitting throughout the entire church as John B, Y/n and Sarah went through the back, quickly running off together.
