Ein Liebesfilm. Da manche Mädchen einfach nicht von dieser Welt sind, informierte ich mich vorsichtshalber nochmal, wie diese auf Parties korrekt anzusprechen sind. Für Außerirdischen gelten zwar im Prinzip anderere Regeln, welche hier aber keine Verwendung finden, weil die kleinen Punks in Croydon annehmen, so sonderbar wie sie sich benehmen, sind es wohl Amerikaner. Muss als einer der besseren Filme mit Nicole Kidman gewertet werden.

*Pogue for Life* Secret of the Gnomon Final Part

They start removing all the rocks around the opening. 

"If someone went through this much trouble, this has got to be the way." John states.

 "We cleared enough. Are we ready to do this?" John B says. 

"You three go." Big John says. 

"What? What are you talking about we're all going." John B insists.

 "Buzz and I are not fitting through that wormhole." Big John states.

 "We may have what we think is the way to El Dorado, and you're just gonna sit this one out?" John B questions.

 "We gotta take the training wheels off sometime kid. We'll hold the fort down up here." Big John states.

 "I'm gonna stay up here too. You've been shot, Uncle John. My dad and I have medical supplies. We need to take a look at that wound before it gets infected." Joanna speaks up. 

Buzz gives her a proud look. 

"There was one last part of the message that I didn't tell you." John tells his son. 

John B scoffs. 

"Always keeping secrets, aye pops?" John B retorts.

 "Just listen for a second. The true and patient seeker needs not light to see. Do you two got that?" John asks them. 

Sarah and John B nod their heads. 

"I have three flares here. They're waterproof. I doubt those flashlights will survive the swim. They're 20 minutes each." 

John B takes the flares.

 Jo pulls Sarah into a hug.

 "Be safe." Jo whispers to her. 

Sarah hugs her back tightly. 

Jo wipes the tears from her face. 

She pulls John B into a hug. 

"I love you JB." Jo whispers to him. 

"I love you too." he tells her back. 

"You got this. We've made it this far. P4L." 

She extends her fist for a fist bump. 

John B laughs and fist bumps her. 

"P4L...Take care of my dad for me." he tells her.

 "Of course, I will." she responds. 

The three watch as Sarah and John B disappear under the water and go through the opening.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Big John sits down on a big rock.

 Joanna and Buzz take medical supplies out of the bags.

 Buzz lifts John's shirt. 

It was bleeding heavily and looked bad.

 "Oh my God. This doesn't look good." Joanna states. 

"Just breathe. What's the first step to take?" Buzz asks her calmy. 

Joanna starts to breathe heavily and become unfocused.

 "I--I d--on't know. I've never dealt with a gunshot wound before." she tells him. 

Big John sits there in silence waiting.

 "Listen. Breathe. You can do this." Buzz assures his daughter.

 She shakes her head. 

"No, No I don't. I can't believe that I thought I could do this!" Joanna continues to freak out.

 "You can. I believe in you. You have come so far. You are brave and smart. I couldn't be more proud to have you as a daughter." Buzz tells her. 

That only makes her cry harder. "I'm not. Dad, I have to tell you something. I'm pregnant." she whispers.

 Buzz looks at her with wide eyes. 

"What?" he questions.

 "I just found out. But I'm not any of those things that you just called me." 

Buzz pulls his daughter to him for a hug. 

"I still mean everything I say. You are here. And you are going to learn. I am going to teach you. Now focus. We need to check to see if he has an exit wound. Okay?" 

Buzz slides his hand behind John to feel for an exit wound.

 "Okay. He doesn't have one. Which means the bullet is still in there. We need to stop the bleeding. He's lost a lot of blood already. I need you to put pressure on the wound." 

Joanna nods her head and uses both hands to cover the wound. 

John lets out a grunt. 

"I'm sorry." she tells him.

 "You're doing good kid. Just keep doing what your dad tells you." John encourages her softly.

 "You're going to be okay. My dad is the best I know." she tells him. 

"I know he is. And you're learning from the best." Buzz rushes back over.

 "Alright, since he was shot in the stomach a tourniquet isn't going to work. We need to slow the bleeding down so we can dress it." Buzz informs her. 

He hands her some of the gauze dressing. 

Jo sees a light by the entrance. 

"Someone is here." Jo whispers. 

Buzz looks towards the direction. 

"We have to move him." 

Jo helps lift John from one side and they hide behind a big pile of thick rocks. 

"I know you're bleeding Mr. Routledge! I know I hit you! And I am going to find you!" 

They hear Singh shout out. 

Jo tries to control her breathing. 

But she is scared.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They hear Singh come closer to the water's edge.

 "I know you couldn't have wandered far John! Not with how much you're bleeding! I'm guessing you have Mr. Mills with you trying to stop the bleeding! Be a man John! Don't let your friend and his daughter die for you!" Singh flashes his light around.

 "What are we gonna do? He's gonna be here when Sarah and John B come back through." Jo whispers. 

Buzz is finishing up dressing John's wound. 

"You can't hide from me for much longer!" 

They hear rustling in the water. 

Jo looks over to see John B and Sarah emerge from the water. 

Singh points his gun at them. 

"Not so fast! Go for a little swim, did you? Step out of the water and put your hands up, both of you." 

Jo watches as Sarah and John B slowly walk up out of the water. 

"We have to do something. He's gonna kill them." Jo cries. 

"Show me what's in the bag!" Singh demands of John B. 

He points the gun at Sarah. 

"Alright! Here it is. You can have it!" John B hands the bag over. 

Singh opens it and pulls out a big block of gold. 

Jo's eyes widen. 

"So you found El Dorado at last. Unfortunately for you, your time has come to an end." 

Jo sees Singh point his gun at John B. 

"We have a plan. Do you think you can distract him?" Buzz asks his daughter. 

She nods her head. 

She quickly runs out of the hiding spot. 

"Don't shoot them!" 

Singh turns his attention to Jo. 

She quickly raises her hands. 

"Look at you, defending your friends. You and your father both are going to get killed because of your loyalty to your friends!" Singh shouts at Jo. 

With Singh distracted, Big John emerges from the hiding spot. 

Buzz is holding up a hit stick of dynamite. 

"If you take one more step near those kids, Buzz is gonna blow the whole thing sky high. That roof isn't gonna hold, and you'll never see El Dorado." John threatens. 

Singh points the gun right at John B. 

"If my son dies, then we all die." John continues to threaten. 

"The problem with that John, is that I don't believe you. I don't believe that you would let Mr. Mills here blow up your opportunity to see El Dorado, even to save your own son's life and the life of his friends." 

John turns to Buzz and gives him a nod.

 "This is for you, kid." Big John shouts as Buzz throws the stick toward the entrance. 

"Run!" 

Buzz and John B help Big John run as Sarah and Jo grab the gold and run towards the entrance of the cave. 

The girls make it out and wait. 

They see John B and Buzz supporting John as the explosion hits, knocking everyone to the ground.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Jo has ringing in her ears. 

She quickly gets up and helps Buzz stand up. 

"We gotta go! Anyone could have heard that blast!" 

They quickly run back through the jungle. 

"Hold on a second. I got pretty banged up there. I need to sit." Big John breaths out.

 Buzz quickly rushes over to look at his wound. 

It has started bleeding again. 

Sarah puts the bag down and it clanks loudly. 

"Is that what I think it is?" John questions. 

Sarah opens the bag and pulls a big chunk out. 

Jo's eyes widen. 

"Oh my God! I can't believe you guys actually did it!" Jo exclaims.

 "It's so beautiful, John. It was like nothing you could ever imagine." Sarah tells him.

 "That is amazing. All of you kids have been amazing. Each and every one of you. Thank you." John says to them.

 Ward steps out from the trees and points his gun. 

"Well isn't this sweet." 

Everyone turns to see Ward. 

Jo shakes her head in disappointment. 

She spares a look to Sarah who has the same look.

 "I'm too tired to put my hands up Ward. So if you're not good with that just shoot me now." John retorts. 

"What are you doing, dad?" Sarah questions. 

"Watch what you wish for, my old friend. Hell, the both of you have done this together." Ward directs his attention toward Buzz too.

 "You have it all, don't you guys." Ward takes the gold from Sarah's hand.

 "You get to go back home, back to Kildare, and live happily ever after. With your kids that love you. With my daughter who hates me. And with our future grandchild who I will never get to see. I don't think I can allow that." Ward states. 

The rest of the pogues are waiting behind the tree line and they hear everything, especially the part of the grandchild. 

JJ's eyes widen.

 He knows what that means. 

But his friends are in trouble and the girl he loves is also in trouble. 

He has to save them. 

"You were supposed to be dead, John! Buzz, you were always more loyal to John than to me. Even though we all started this thing together! We grew up together! What makes him more important to you than me?!... It doesn't matter now. You're both going to be dead." Ward points his gun. 

The rest of the pogues run out with machetes. 

"It's over Ward!" 

"You're outnumbered!" 

"Are you gonna shoot us all?!" 

Ward points his gun at all of them. 

Sarah stands in front of the gun. 

"Enough! You're not gonna shoot all of us!" she tells him. 

Ward looks heartbroken. 

" I know you. You forget that I know you." Sarah tells him. 

Ward puts his gun down. 

"You're right. I couldn't do it." he tells her. 

"But I can." 

They all turn around to see Ryan standing over John and Buzz with a gun. 

John B points the gun at him.

 "Toss the gun, boy." Ryan demands. 

"Your boss is dead. You ain't got no reason to shoot us." Big John states. 

"I can think of a few reasons. Toss it." John B tosses the gun. 

Jo feels a tug on her arm and it's JJ pulling her back behind him. 

"You all thought you would end up the gold, huh?" Ryan picks up the gun.

 "My friend back there is dead, because of you." he says to Sarah. 

He then points his gun at Sarah. 

"So you get to die first." Sarah gasps. 

"No!" Ward sprints at Ryan. 

Ryan fires shots into Ward. 

They both fall over the edge. 

They all hear a thump. 

They all stand in silence. 

JJ looks at Jo. 

He pulls her closer to him.

 They all walk over to the edge. 

They see Ward and Ryan both dead. 

Sarah starts to cry. 

Jo puts a comforting hand on her arm. 

JJ links his hand with Jo's. 

"John B! We gotta get your dad out of here!" Buzz shouts. 

John B rushes over to help Buzz lift him up. 

The girls all wrap their arms around Sarah. 

"Come on, we gotta go!" 

They all quickly rush down the mountain. 

They make it to the river. 

The boat is waiting for them. 

But it's too late, Big John doesn't make it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

18 MONTHS LATER

The town is gathered around for the celebration. 

The mayor, Buzz is giving the speech. 

The group of friends are sitting up on the main steps as they are being recognized.

 "An expedition of one man, John Routledge, and a group of teenagers who are locals to our wonderful town. They have succeeded where centuries of conquistadors, explorers, and admirals have failed. Today, we come together to celebrate these teens who are friends from both sides of the island who came together to solve this 500-year-old mystery. Let's hear it for them!" 

The crowd cheers and the friends all stand up.

 Joanna is wearing a blue and white sundress with white strappy heels and a jean jacket.

 JJ looks down at her with a small smile. 

She looks up at him and they interlock their pinkies together. 

Out in the crowd everyone is cheering for them. 

Topper doesn't look happy.

 He is sitting beside his mom, he is holding a baby girl who is smiling and clapping and pointing.

 Joanna smiles and waves at them. 

Topper rolls his eyes but kisses the baby on the head.

 Some artifacts were collected and laid out on display for the people to see. 

Joanna splits up from the group and walks over to Topper.

 "Thank you for keeping an eye on her." 

Topper gives the baby back.

 "My mom would have killed me if I didn't. Besides she likes me for some reason." Topper tells her coldly.

 "How are you? It's been a while." she asks. 

Topper shrugs his shoulders. 

"I'm okay. You should get back to your friends." 

Topper turns around to walk away. 

"How is he?" she asks him. 

He stops and turns around. 

He scoffs and shakes his head. 

"How do you think he's doing?" 

JJ walks over to them. 

"I'll see you around Joanna." Topper walks away. 

The baby spots JJ and gets excited.

 "Hey babygirl!" 

JJ takes her from Joanna.

 Joanna puts a smile on her face. 

"You look good holding my baby." JJ smiles widely at her.

 "I love being around her. Have you given any more thought to what I asked earlier?" Joanna widens her eyes. 

"I have." she tells him. 

Just then Buzz walks over to them with another man.

 "Here come to Grampy for a second." 

Buzz takes the baby from JJ.

 "This man would like to have a word with you guys." 

JJ motions for everyone to come over. 

"I would just like to say that what you guys accomplished is just amazing. And I was wondering if you would all be so kind as to look at an item of mine." 

He opens his briefcase and pulls out an old and worn book.

 "What type of item is that?" Cleo asks.

 "It's a manuscript. I would investigate it myself, but I'm too long in the tooth. I need partners, and you all were first on my list." The man tells them. 

Jo raises her eyebrows.

 "We're flattered. That's for sure." she comments.

 "May I?" Pope asks holding out his hand.

 "I was hoping you would." The man hands over the book. 

Everyone looks over Pope's shoulder.

 "This is from 1718, geez that's old. There are some exhibition notes. Dates." 

Pope flips through the pages.

 "This is a captain's log. This shows the exact position of the ship." John B informs them. 

"Yes. The exact location where the ship sailed and where it stopped." The man states. 

"Who was the captain?" JJ asks sounding like he is intrigued. 

"Edward Teach." the man informs them.

 Joanna instantly whips her head up. 

She knows that name. 

"No way! Are you serious?" she asks.

 "Who is that?" Kie asks. 

"Blackbeard." The man answers. 

Everyone looks shocked and intrigued. 

JJ smirks and grabs Joanna's hand.

 "Hot damn." John B breaths out with a smirk.

June 2025 — New York City, New York

“Don’t even bring that up, oh my God.” Rickea laughs, reaching one of her long arms over to slap at my knee.

Rickea, Cameron, and I sit soundly in the green room, makeup placed deliberately on our faces. We played the Liberty last night, in a game with an outcome I would rather forget than talk about.

But today, after the team hopped on the first charter back to LA, we had a date with GQ. They called it The Teammates Quiz, and we were given the honor of being the first women’s sports team with the opportunity. I thought it was a cool idea, a game that I would certainly win because I know my teammates well.

However, it seems like these two know me just as well because they are airing my business out to everybody in this room right now. Well, maybe not all of it, but close enough. 

“Kea, you fell on your face in the middle of downtown LA. I’m with P, I’m so bringing it up.” Cameron laughs.

“I was drunk!”

“You were more sober than P. And she drinks like a man going through a divorce.” I instantly pull back from my makeup artist, looking over at my teammate incredulously.

“I do not!” I attempt to defend. “You two insisted on buying drinks after the draft, not me.”

Cameron, who’s seconds away from bursting out in tears of laughter, speaks up through her ragged breaths. “You got so drunk you were making out with random girls in the club.”

“Least I ain’t fall on concrete in the middle of LA.” I laugh, sitting back in my seat and allowing Joanna to get back to doing my makeup. I let her and Brittany take control of my look, they know best after all. 

You would think with the way the three of us all talk to each other that our on court chemistry is terrible, but it’s the complete opposite. Probably why GQ asked us to do this little segment today. I cut my attention back to my teammates when Rickea’s voice cuts through the air again.

“Have you talked to Raye lately?”

The way she asks it seems skeptical. Like she knows something, or is suspicious of something and I can’t pick up why. We’ve been keeping our friendship pretty cordial— at least to our friends and in public.

Maybe Maraye told her about the kiss. Maybe Maraye told her literally nothing, and Rickea is just trying to pry as she does often.

“Uh yeah, we hung out a few nights ago.” I respond, so lucky that Joanne is angling my head in the opposite direction, successfully hiding my growing red face from my teammates. “She’s pretty cool.”

Which isn’t a lie, we did hang out a few nights ago. Only my lips start tingling whenever I think about it. I swear I can taste her still on them all these hours later; like a mix of every single dessert on the planet. So damn sweet. I wonder if she always tasted like that, or if she tasted different elsewhere. 

And yes, Maraye is pretty cool. Pretty funny, pretty smart, pretty talented, pretty. So fucking pretty.

I’m realizing now that three days has been too damn long. To see her damn near everyday, then not at all for a week, then again in which I end up with my tongue down her throat. To not have been within inches of her for 72 fucking hours has me going just a bit crazy.

“I didn’t know y’all were hanging out.”

“I didn’t know I was supposed to tell you that.” I fire back too quickly. It makes it seem defensive, and it’s not. I have nothing to hide. 

Well yeah I do, but I think I’m pretty good at hiding it.

“Paige.” Cam says, cutting into the conversation awkwardly. “Please don’t tell me you did something stupid.”

I slouch back in my seat and Brittany, who I swore just magically spawned behind me, slaps my shoulder telling me to sit up. “I didn’t! You guys can’t ever just trust me.” I laugh.

“‘Cause you get caught doing stupid shit!” Rickea explains.

“Caught?”

“Caught? Again?”

“You haven’t seen twitter?”

Those four words always make my heart beat out of my chest. The internet is cool when it comes to me, out of pocket sure, but cool. But on the off occasion that they aren’t, it’s because they are either making shitty posts about what i’m doing on the court, writing think pieces, or minding my business rather than their own. I’m assuming, in context to Maraye, that it’s the latter.

“The fuck happened this time.” I ask with a huff. The first time, I had gotten too comfortable at the club. Which was admittedly my own drunken fault. The second time I was trending because people swore up and down I was making goo-goo eyes at Taylor Rooks. Which I was, she’s absolutely unreal. And now here we are.

Cameron is the one who looks first, and by the look of her face I assume it’s pretty telling. Rickea hands me her phone. I take it, slightly shaking and I don’t know why. 

My eyes are stuck to the screen, and it’s four pictures. I’m not sure who took them, but Maraye has reached A-list status and I forget the Paps are everywhere when it comes to her. 

The first is us leaving the bar in Atlanta. Maraye’s head isn’t in the shot, she’s busy hopping into the backseat of our uber, but mine is. It’s very obviously me, my signature braids down the side of my face rather than in the usual ponytail. My hand is stuck comfortably in the pocket of my zip up while the other holds the door open for her.

The second photo is from when we’re seated at Waffle house. I’m showing all 32 while Maraye talks, and it makes us look like a fucking couple. Her arms rest on the table, head slightly tilted. From the angle, again, you can’t see all her face but her side profile is obvious. Anyone could point it out and recognize her.

But it’s the last two that make us look the most guilty. My arm draped over her shoulder is very incriminating. She held her pink lemonade flavored slushee in her hand, looking up at me. One more swipe and I’m looking at myself paying for those two slushee’s. It doesn’t help that my jacket from earlier that night is now zipped up over her body. 

‘Paige Bueckers and Maraye Carter in atl this weekend 😲’  Reads the tweet. It’s messy, even more when I scroll further and see people putting pieces together. The replies are full of videos from opening night, screenshots of my recent activity in her instagram likes, and of course, of course, someone had to have seen me in my seat at her concert.

It looks bad. I would say worse than it is, but it all doesn’t even scratch the surface. 

“We just friends.” I mumble, I wouldn’t be surprised if my nose grew a centimeter or two. “Y’know how people get.”

I hand Rickea her phone back. She’s the one I should be scared off, Cameron has been done with my relationship issues since I first met her as kids. But Kea? After the talk about leaving Maraye alone, and how I know better, and how I don’t need to get hurt. I’m terrified that I’m about to get caught.

“Has she seen these?”

“Ion know.” She responded. “Probably. But If you two are jus’ friends’, then don’t sweat it. Hollywood moves fast.”

Really fast. 

—

June 2025 — Los Angeles, California 

“You’re literally a fan, shut up.” I joke at the blonde sitting besides me.

She’s messily scarfing down her chipotle bowl as we sit in her car. The windows are tinted nicely and my album shuffles through her speakers, even though she swears up and down that she didn’t add it to her library.

“Am not.”

“Yeah yeah, pinocchio.”

It’s my first time seeing her since the night in my condo, and it’s awkward. Which is weird because Paige and I have never been awkward together. Everything was always smooth, fluid, when it came to her. But now I don’t know what to say.

I blame it on the kiss.

It should’ve never happened. She knows that, I know that. Even then I don’t regret it. 

I’ve never in my life had feelings for a woman before, until now. And it’s so weird because I think I still have feelings for Julian too. It’s not the same thing though. Julian is perfect for me. Good job, family man, tall, handsome, the most gorgeous and perfect curly hair I’ve ever seen. Then there’s Paige, and she just might be perfect for me too. Work oriented, funny, insanely smart even though I tell her she’s not. 

So I sit silent in her passenger seat, not a clue in the world of what I should say to her. She makes me nervous, she makes the bottom of my stomach twist up whenever I look at her and see those beautiful blue eyes. I shouldn’t feel that way, I know that. But damn does she make it hard.

“Maraye?”

“Yeah?”

Paige chuckles, reaching over to wipe a bit of Vinaigrette from my lip. “I said ‘you good?’”

I nod and my head moves slightly away from her reach. “Yeah. Why?” I ask, taking a generous bit from my burrito.

“Because you’re sittin’ there all quiet.” She explains. “I know we kissed and all that but I ain’t think you would stop bein’ cool around me.” She says in an attempt to ease the atmosphere, the obvious tension that bounces off walls.

“It’s not that.” I mumble.

She puts the lid on her bowl, reaching towards the back seat to drop the trash in the brown chipotle bag. When she turns back to face me, I get a great look at her for the first time all night. Her hair is in a messy bun, strands slightly framing her face.

“Then what is it, Raye?” Paige slouches in the seat. “‘Cause don’t get me wrong, I feel some typa way about you but we’re friends first—”

“I wanna kiss you again.” I blurt out. It’s word vomit, like I can’t help but tell her how badly I want her lips on mine and her tongue in my mouth. Hands on my waist, my ass, in my hair. 

She laughs, and I pray to God she’s not laughing at me. “That’s why you can’t talk to me anymore?”

“I wanna kiss you, but I know how wrong that is. I have a boyfriend, and everyone already thinks something is going on here.” My finger gestures between the both of us.

“You saw the pictures?” Paige cuts me off. Her hand slips forward to grab her phone.

“Did you?”

“Kea showed me them yesterday.”

We sit in silence. I’m trying to process her response. 

“Did, uh, did Julian see them?” She asks.

Shit. Julian. It seems like I’m constantly forgetting about him whenever I’m with her. Always. I’m such a fucking asshole. 

“No, I-I didn’t show him. I don’t think I needed to.” I explain through my stutter. He didn’t need to see them. One, because it wasn’t anything serious. The photos made Paige and I look bad, sure, but there was nothing to worry about. It would only make me and him argue, and we do enough of that already.

“Good.” She nods. “He probably shouldn’t anyway.”

“Yeah.”

“Y’know I really wanna kiss you too.” Paige says. I thought that was it. The kiss happened once, and we were back to being friends. Being normal.

“Paige—”

“I can’t stop thinkin’ about it.”

“P, quit it.”

“I keep thinking about how you taste. Like all day. And I shouldn’t, I know that, but you make it fuckin’ impossible.” The blonde sighs. Her eyes fall shut like it’s painful, painful to not kiss me. 

I shake my head, hoping that it’s enough for her to stop talking about it. “Paige, you and I are friends. That’s it. I have a boyfriend, and you’re not a home wrecker. We aren’t doing that again.”

She goes quiet. Then her eyes open and she turns back towards the wheel. It’s 10:30 at night and she has a game in the morning. Paige’s hips raise slightly to fix her sweatpants. A pulse races through me when it happens. 

“You understand? We can’t.” I ask, pulling her out of her thoughts.

“Yeah. Yeah, just friends.” Paige says.

I want to believe her. I really do. But the look in her eyes tells me I shouldn’t. Those blue orbs I know so well are suddenly a deep color, pupils wide. She slightly bites the corner of her lip, staring at me like I could run away.

“Stop looking at me like that.” I push at her shoulder, a chuckle escaping my lips. “I’m serious. No kissing, no flirting. I’m not a cheater, P. This shouldn’t have happened.”

“I know, I know. I won’t.” She responds. “But if it happens?” Paige leans into me again. Her hand flicking a curl away from my face before playing with it. She stares at me with intensity.

“It won’t.”

“If it does, I’m not apologizing for it.”

And then she pulls back, sitting in her seat and pulling her seatbelt over her body. She turns the engine on without even a second thought.

I sit there speechless, burrito growing cold between my hands. And I know, without a doubt, no matter how badly I want to hold out and follow through on my promise.

Paige is dangerous, and I don’t think I have it in me.

She’s gonna win. Again.
