Oooppss @justabigassnerd, @maverick-wingman, and I did a thing....

Pretty sure it is going to be a series with one-shots attached....

[callsign-dexter]

I was wondering if you plan on updating Baby Bradford (if you’ve already spoke on this I’m sorry and you don’t have to respond)

I am planning on updating Baby Bradford! I have a lot of WIPs for it and a few requests.

I just haven't really had time to work on fics between work and school work.

I just took off the planned fics because there was confusion about what was done and what wasn't.

[callsign-dexter]

Since so many of you guys would read a male!reader fic, even though I am a female writer, I'm going to have a separate tag list specifically for those types of fics. If you would like to be tagged let me know by commenting on this post or messaging me privately.

I can do male!reader x male!character, those fics will probably not be smut or it'll be implied smut, or male!reader x female!character, if it is smut it'll be told from the female's pov, or male!character x son!reader or brother!reader.

This could be for all fics or the fandoms I write for:

9-1-1

9-1-1 Lone Star

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Criminal Minds

One Chicago (Chicago Med, PD, and Fire)

S.W.A.T.

Teen Wolf

The Rookie

Top Gun

Top Gun Maverick

Twister

Street's Secret

Summary: The team finds out Street has a 6-year-old kid, you.

Pairings: Jim Street x Daughter!Reader

Warnings: fluff, angst, swearing

Masterlist

A/N: I switched some stuff up but kept some major parts in there.

Jim was keeping a huge secret from his team and for a good reason, he hadn't quite fully trusted them with this information. Sure he trusted them enough to put his life in their hands but it would take a bit until he trusted them with you. You were his 6-year-old daughter, the light of his life, the will to keep going, and the reason he took this job away from his other job in Long Beach, California. Your mother was never in the picture having been an one-night stand and then when she had you she left leaving Jim a single father. Your father was a player and tried to find a suitable person to settle down with and take care of you but once they found out he had a kid they ran. He would like to think he was doing a good job at raising you but he knew better but no way was he going to give you up.

When the two of you moved to LA he was quick to find you a caretaker, Misty Gard, that you both loved. She was trained in childcare and had an education degree meaning she could help with homework when your dad couldn't or wasn't there. She had a room there at your guy's house for when she stayed over. She took care of you like you were her own but never got in the way of your dad parenting you but she was there when he needed advice and help. Your dad wasn't her type plus besides she swung for the other team so it worked out perfectly. She also gave him dating advice when he needed it and boy did he need it.

Today was his first day at S.W.A.T. and he was going to be late because he always made it his mission, when he was home, to get you up and ready for the day, and then he would leave you in the hands of Misty. Jim was usually the first one up on any day and was down in the kitchen getting things ready for the day when Misty arrived at the house and walked through the door. He was always an early riser and he had gotten a shower in and a quick at-home workout session, he really needed to set the garage that is out back as a gym/hangout area. He needed to unpack the house if he was being honest with himself as he stood there in the kitchen drinking coffee and looking around at the place. He was getting ready to take another sip of coffee when he heard your soft gentle voice calling out to him "Daddy?" You asked sounding confused, you never really did well with new places and sometimes woke up confused. He smiled and set his cup down and walked up the stairs to your room, which was just a few feet and across the hallway from his. A guest room was right next to yours, Misty's room, and another was next to your father's. A study area that could be turned into a room was downstairs and then there was a basement that was finished that was going to be a game room/hangout room and it had a door that walked out into the spacious backyard. Maybe you're wondering how he could afford it but he was able to and he wanted what was best for you. The house was in a good neighborhood and close to your school. So it was perfect. He arrived at your room and walked in.

"Hey, Baby Girl." He said in a gentle soothing voice. He walked over to you and sat on the bed and you crawled into his lap, this is what he loved cuddling you in the mornings.

"Do you have to go to work today?" You asked looking up at him and he smiled down at you and kissed your forehead.

"I do but I'll be back to you as soon as I can." He said and you nodded. "Come on. We gotta get you ready and then Misty is going to take you to school." He said standing up with him, you clung to him as he walked to the bathroom and set you down on the counter. You started to get ready by brushing your teeth. As your dad started brushing your hair "What are we feeling today?" He asked looking at you through the mirror.

"French braid." You said

"You got it." He said and then he started to do your hair and once done he stood back feeling accomplished. You got dressed and headed downstairs with him in tow just as Misty walked in.

"Good morning you two. Jim you're gonna be late." She said

"I know I know." He said throwing on his jacket and turning to you getting down to your height. "I love you. Be good." He said kissing your forehead.

"I love you too." You said and then he was rushing out the door to his motorcycle and turning it on and then he was racing off.

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

Jim was fucked. He was late so late. He raced through the streets on his motorcycle. Going over the speed limit. Sometimes crossing multiple red lights and he was close to the S.W.A.T. building. He pushed the speed higher and blew through the light popping a wheely and that caused blue and red lights to pop up behind him but he wasn't stopping. He finally pulled into a parking spot crookedly as the officers got out and he killed the engine and hopped off "Put the ticket on my bike. I'm late for work." He said rushing into the building and to the locker room and changing and bursting through the doors running into his new team.

"You Hondo? I’m Jim --" He begins but was quickly cut off.

"Cutting it a little close, Street." Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson says

"Sorry. Hit a thousand red lights." He said

"We don’t do excuses here." He says looking at Street in his tac gear "You’re in the wrong uniform. Get changed, we’re rolling out." He added.

As they start walking out Jim begins again "Music to my ears. Just point me in the right direction. I’m here to kick ass." He says.

"SWAT’s not about kicking ass. It’s about saving lives." Hondo lectures him.

"Which sometimes requires kicking a little ass, right?" He questions he feels his phone buzz in his pocket but doesn't answer it. A beat. Not exactly comforting for Hondo to hear. Before he can correct Jim, Sergeant II Jeff Mumford who is the leader of 50-David Team, shows up with his second in charge Sergeant II Donovan Rocker. "Hey, if it isn’t America’s Top Cop. You drive to work today or just swing from building to building like Spiderman?" Everyone on his team laughs.

"Spiderman..." Rocker snickers. There’s an intense rivalry between SWAT teams and this kind of shit-giving is common, if not always appreciated.

"Those were Hicks’ words, not mine." Hondo says a little agitated.

"And what about getting the 20-David gig over Deac? What’d you do to deserve that, huh?" Mumford asks stirring the pot. He eyeballs Sergeant II "Deacon" Donovan Rocker, clearly on his side. Hondo contemplates how hard to push back when Jim jumps in.

"I miss some kind of drama or is this guy’s default button just set on “Dick Mode���?" He asks cleary lost.

"Not sure who your new smartass is, but good luck with that. We’re on our way to find the guy Buck let get away last night." He says and then they start walking off.

"Later." Rocker says as he and Mumford move off. He quickly goes and changes while looking at his phone smiling, it's a picture of you that Misty had sent. You had just been dropped off at school and it looked like she had gotten you to look over your shoulder at the camera. He sends a reply and then hurries out to the rest of the team. Hondo, not off on the best foot as a leader, leads his guys out.

-

They arrive at the park and Hondo quickly gives them orders where to go. Jim was quickly paired up with Christina "Chris" Alonso. As they walked through the park taking everything in and seeing if there was any danger Jim spotted the K-9 Patch on Chris' arm. Luca and Tan approach Street and Chris as their conversation starts. "Saw your K-9 patch. Where’s the mutt?" Jim asks and he thinks back to you. You've always wanted a dog.

"Champ? Just retired. Hip started to go. I got him at my place, getting ready to train a new dog." She asks and replies.

"You picked one out yet? My daughter has always wanted a dog." He says letting it slip that he has a kid, Chris is shocked.

"No, still choosing." She says

"Maybe off duty you can teach me a few tricks." He says flirty.

"I like dogs, not dawgs." She said making a point but him saying he has a daughter still runs through their mind. Luca and Tan all started to walk up to them.

"Texted with a buddy in Long Beach about you, Street. Sounds like it ended pretty rocky down there." Dominique Luca says not bringing up you.

"Anything we should know? Nothing stays secret too long in SWAT." Officer III Victor Tan asks. A passes beat as they wait to see how he’ll respond.

"If I plan on keeping any secrets from you, I’ll let you know." He says Street moves off to check on the crowd as Luca, Tan and Chris share a look. Some uncertainty about their new partner.

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

Finally, the day was over and as you were walking outside you instantly spotted Misty. This wasn't a surprise to you, if she was picking you up then your dad was busy or still working. "Hi, Misty." You said as you walked up to her.

"Hey, Y/n. You ready to go home?" She asked

"Yea, I'm ready. Dad working late?" You asked her.

"Just a little. He should be home a little after we get home." She said and you nodded and got into the back after seeing her girlfriend/fiancé, Samantha, in the front seat.

"Hi, Samantha." You told her as you climbed in and shut the door she turned and looked at you smiling.

"Hi, Y/N. How was today?" She asked. Misty got in and buckled up and then started to drive.

"It was ok. New place. It's a little stressful." You said and she smiled at you and then turned around. The drive back to your house was quiet besides the low chitchat that the two women were doing and you didn't mind because you were in your own little world.

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

A sign left Jim's mouth as they reached the locker room and everyone began to change out of their tactical gear. It was a long stressful first day and all he wanted was to get back home to you. He looked down at his watch and smiled, he saw the time and knew Misty and Samantha had you at home already. "What has you all smiley?" Deacon asked coming up to him and everyone else started to surround him. He knew then he had to tell them.

"Alright alright. So I've been keeping a secret." He said. Chris already knew as he had let it slip earlier. Everyone looked at him waiting. He sighed "I have a kid. A 6-year-old daughter named Y/N." He said and looked around to gauge reactions.

"Honestly, you looked like a dad when I first saw you." Deacon said

"You certainly didn't act like it when you came speeding into the building." Hondo said

"When are we going to meet her?" Luca asked because secretly loved kids.

"Maybe a later. She just got home from school." He said

"Do you have a picture of her?" Deacon asked and he nodded and pulled out his phone to show them his lock screen. It was you at a festival with a stuffed penguin that for some reason you named Glen. You were smiling from ear to ear and you had your dad's sunglasses on.

"She looks a lot like you." Tan said

"I'm glad. Her mom hasn't been in the picture since she was born." Jim said

"Seriously?" Deacon asked and he nodded as his phone was given back to him.

"Yup. Left when she was born. Signed away rights and everything." He said putting his phone away.

"If you need anything just know Annie and I are here for help and advice." Deacon said and Jim smiled.

"Thank you. Now, I gotta run. I have a little girl waiting for me." He said grabbing his stuff.

"I'll walk out with you." Chris said and she hurried up to him "I can't believe I'm going to say this but if you want to bring her over to meet Champ I wouldn't be opposed to it." She said and that made Jim stop and look at her as they passed through the doors.

"Really?" He asked and she nodded.

"Really." She replied

"I think she'll like that. I'll let you know." He said and she smiled and then they were going their separate ways. As he got onto his bike he smiled, having you in his life just might be a good thing.

-

It was a quick trip home. He pulled into the driveway and parked beside Misty's Jeep. He shut off his motorcycle and walked into the house. "Daddy!" You screeched and came barreling at him and he was quick to bring you up into his arms.

"Hi, Baby Girl. Did you have a good day?" He asked as he walked in and sat down on the couch with Misty and Samantha.

"It was long." You said cuddling into him.

"Mine was too." He said kissing your head.

"Since you're home. We will get out of your hair and let you be with your little girl. There are leftovers in the fridge." Misty said as she and Samantha got up and he smiled and nodded.

"Thank you. Hope she wasn't too much trouble." He said and they shook their head.

"You have one adorable little girl there." Samantha said they both said their goodbyes to you and your father and then they left.

"Daddy?" You asked looking up at him with tired eyes.

"Yes?" He asked looking down at him.

"Are we staying here for good?" You asked and he smiled down at you and kissed your forehead.

"I think so, Baby Girl. I think so." He said and you smiled at him "I love you." He added.

"I love you too." He said and then you snuggled into him and then your breath evened out. He had to admit to himself that he was looking forward to you meeting the team, you just light the room up and become instant friends with pretty much everyone. You were his world and nothing was going to change that.

Ahhh thank you! It was sitting unfinished for a long time until this morning.

They really are the best duo and Street just wants what is best for his little girl and nothing is going to stand in the way of that. She is going to have some very protective and cool uncles and aunts.

Maybe you're wondering how he could afford it but he was able to and he wanted what was best for you. The house was in a good neighborhood and close to your school. So it was perfect. He arrived at your room and walked in.

"Hey, Baby Girl." He said in a gentle soothing voice. He walked over to you and sat on the bed and you crawled into his lap, this is what he loved cuddling you in the mornings.

"Do you have to go to work today?" You asked looking up at him and he smiled down at you and kissed your forehead.

"I do but I'll be back to you as soon as I can." He said and you nodded. "Come on. We gotta get you ready and then Misty is going to take you to school." He said standing up with him, you clung to him as he walked to the bathroom and set you down on the counter. You started to get ready by brushing your teeth. As your dad started brushing your hair "What are we feeling today?" He asked looking at you through the mirror.

"French braid." You said

"You got it." He said and then he started to do your hair and once done he stood back feeling accomplished. You got dressed and headed downstairs with him in tow just as Misty walked in.

"Good morning you two. Jim you're gonna be late." She said

"I know I know." He said throwing on his jacket and turning to you getting down to your height. "I love you. Be good." He said kissing your forehead.

"I love you too." You said and then he was rushing out the door to his motorcycle and turning it on and then he was racing off.

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

Jim was fucked. He was late so late. He raced through the streets on his motorcycle. Going over the speed limit. Sometimes crossing multiple red lights and he was close to the S.W.A.T. building. He pushed the speed higher and blew through the light popping a wheely and that caused blue and red lights to pop up behind him but he wasn't stopping. He finally pulled into a parking spot crookedly as the officers got out and he killed the engine and hopped off "Put the ticket on my bike. I'm late for work." He said rushing into the building and to the locker room and changing and bursting through the doors running into his new team.

"You Hondo? I’m Jim --" He begins but was quickly cut off.

"Cutting it a little close, Street." Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson says

"Sorry. Hit a thousand red lights." He said

"We don’t do excuses here." He says looking at Street in his tac gear "You’re in the wrong uniform. Get changed, we’re rolling out." He added.

As they start walking out Jim begins again "Music to my ears. Just point me in the right direction. I’m here to kick ass." He says.

"SWAT’s not about kicking ass. It’s about saving lives." Hondo lectures him.

"Which sometimes requires kicking a little ass, right?" He questions he feels his phone buzz in his pocket but doesn't answer it. A beat. Not exactly comforting for Hondo to hear. Before he can correct Jim, Sergeant II Jeff Mumford who is the leader of 50-David Team, shows up with his second in charge Sergeant II Donovan Rocker. "Hey, if it isn’t America’s Top Cop. You drive to work today or just swing from building to building like Spiderman?" Everyone on his team laughs.

"Spiderman..." Rocker snickers. There’s an intense rivalry between SWAT teams and this kind of shit-giving is common, if not always appreciated.

"Those were Hicks’ words, not mine." Hondo says a little agitated.

"And what about getting the 20-David gig over Deac? What’d you do to deserve that, huh?" Mumford asks stirring the pot. He eyeballs Sergeant II "Deacon" Donovan Rocker, clearly on his side. Hondo contemplates how hard to push back when Jim jumps in.

"I miss some kind of drama or is this guy’s default button just set on “Dick Mode”?" He asks cleary lost.

"Not sure who your new smartass is, but good luck with that. We’re on our way to find the guy Buck let get away last night." He says and then they start walking off.

"Later." Rocker says as he and Mumford move off. He quickly goes and changes while looking at his phone smiling, it's a picture of you that Misty had sent. You had just been dropped off at school and it looked like she had gotten you to look over your shoulder at the camera. He sends a reply and then hurries out to the rest of the team. Hondo, not off on the best foot as a leader, leads his guys out.

-

They arrive at the park and Hondo quickly gives them orders where to go. Jim was quickly paired up with Christina "Chris" Alonso. As they walked through the park taking everything in and seeing if there was any danger Jim spotted the K-9 Patch on Chris' arm. Luca and Tan approach Street and Chris as their conversation starts. "Saw your K-9 patch. Where’s the mutt?" Jim asks and he thinks back to you. You've always wanted a dog.

"Champ? Just retired. Hip started to go. I got him at my place, getting ready to train a new dog." She asks and replies.

"You picked one out yet? My daughter has always wanted a dog." He says letting it slip that he has a kid, Chris is shocked.

"No, still choosing." She says

"Maybe off duty you can teach me a few tricks." He says flirty.

"I like dogs, not dawgs." She said making a point but him saying he has a daughter still runs through their mind. Luca and Tan all started to walk up to them.

"Texted with a buddy in Long Beach about you, Street. Sounds like it ended pretty rocky down there." Dominique Luca says not bringing up you.

"Anything we should know? Nothing stays secret too long in SWAT." Officer III Victor Tan asks. A passes beat as they wait to see how he’ll respond.

"If I plan on keeping any secrets from you, I’ll let you know." He says Street moves off to check on the crowd as Luca, Tan and Chris share a look. Some uncertainty about their new partner.

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

Finally, the day was over and as you were walking outside you instantly spotted Misty. This wasn't a surprise to you, if she was picking you up then your dad was busy or still working. "Hi, Misty." You said as you walked up to her.

"Hey, Y/n. You ready to go home?" She asked

"Yea, I'm ready. Dad working late?" You asked her.

"Just a little. He should be home a little after we get home." She said and you nodded and got into the back after seeing her girlfriend/fiancé, Samantha, in the front seat.

"Hi, Samantha." You told her as you climbed in and shut the door she turned and looked at you smiling.

"Hi, Y/N. How was today?" She asked. Misty got in and buckled up and then started to drive.

"It was ok. New place. It's a little stressful." You said and she smiled at you and then turned around. The drive back to your house was quiet besides the low chitchat that the two women were doing and you didn't mind because you were in your own little world.

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

A sign left Jim's mouth as they reached the locker room and everyone began to change out of their tactical gear. It was a long stressful first day and all he wanted was to get back home to you. He looked down at his watch and smiled, he saw the time and knew Misty and Samantha had you at home already. "What has you all smiley?" Deacon asked coming up to him and everyone else started to surround him. He knew then he had to tell them.

"Alright alright. So I've been keeping a secret." He said. Chris already knew as he had let it slip earlier. Everyone looked at him waiting. He sighed "I have a kid. A 6-year-old daughter named Y/N." He said and looked around to gauge reactions.

"Honestly, you looked like a dad when I first saw you." Deacon said

"You certainly didn't act like it when you came speeding into the building." Hondo said

"When are we going to meet her?" Luca asked because secretly loved kids.

"Maybe a later. She just got home from school." He said

"Do you have a picture of her?" Deacon asked and he nodded and pulled out his phone to show them his lock screen. It was you at a festival with a stuffed penguin that for some reason you named Glen. You were smiling from ear to ear and you had your dad's sunglasses on.

"She looks a lot like you." Tan said

"I'm glad. Her mom hasn't been in the picture since she was born." Jim said

"Seriously?" Deacon asked and he nodded as his phone was given back to him.

"Yup. Left when she was born. Signed away rights and everything." He said putting his phone away.

"If you need anything just know Annie and I are here for help and advice." Deacon said and Jim smiled.

"Thank you. Now, I gotta run. I have a little girl waiting for me." He said grabbing his stuff.

"I'll walk out with you." Chris said and she hurried up to him "I can't believe I'm going to say this but if you want to bring her over to meet Champ I wouldn't be opposed to it." She said and that made Jim stop and look at her as they passed through the doors.

"Really?" He asked and she nodded.

"Really." She replied

"I think she'll like that. I'll let you know." He said and she smiled and then they were going their separate ways. As he got onto his bike he smiled, having you in his life just might be a good thing.

-

It was a quick trip home. He pulled into the driveway and parked beside Misty's Jeep. He shut off his motorcycle and walked into the house. "Daddy!" You screeched and came barreling at him and he was quick to bring you up into his arms.

"Hi, Baby Girl. Did you have a good day?" He asked as he walked in and sat down on the couch with Misty and Samantha.

"It was long." You said cuddling into him.

"Mine was too." He said kissing your head.

"Since you're home. We will get out of your hair and let you be with your little girl. There are leftovers in the fridge." Misty said as she and Samantha got up and he smiled and nodded.

"Thank you. Hope she wasn't too much trouble." He said and they shook their head.

"You have one adorable little girl there." Samantha said they both said their goodbyes to you and your father and then they left.

"Daddy?" You asked looking up at him with tired eyes.

"Yes?" He asked looking down at him.

"Are we staying here for good?" You asked and he smiled down at you and kissed your forehead.

"I think so, Baby Girl. I think so." He said and you smiled at him "I love you." He added.

"I love you too." He said and then you snuggled into him and then your breath evened out. He had to admit to himself that he was looking forward to you meeting the team, you just light the room up and become instant friends with pretty much everyone. You were his world and nothing was going to change that.

Street's Secret (Jim Street x Daughter!Reader)

Street's Secret

Summary: The team finds out Street has a 6-year-old kid, you.

Pairings: Jim Street x Daughter!Reader

Warnings: fluff, angst, swearing

Masterlist

A/N: I switched some stuff up but kept some major parts in there.

Jim was keeping a huge secret from his team and for a good reason, he hadn't quite fully trusted them with this information. Sure he trusted them enough to put his life in their hands but it would take a bit until he trusted them with you. You were his 6-year-old daughter, the light of his life, the will to keep going, and the reason he took this job away from his other job in Long Beach, California. Your mother was never in the picture having been an one-night stand and then when she had you she left leaving Jim a single father. Your father was a player and tried to find a suitable person to settle down with and take care of you but once they found out he had a kid they ran. He would like to think he was doing a good job at raising you but he knew better but no way was he going to give you up.

When the two of you moved to LA he was quick to find you a caretaker, Misty Gard, that you both loved. She was trained in childcare and had an education degree meaning she could help with homework when your dad couldn't or wasn't there. She had a room there at your guy's house for when she stayed over. She took care of you like you were her own but never got in the way of your dad parenting you but she was there when he needed advice and help. Your dad wasn't her type plus besides she swung for the other team so it worked out perfectly. She also gave him dating advice when he needed it and boy did he need it.

Today was his first day at S.W.A.T. and he was going to be late because he always made it his mission, when he was home, to get you up and ready for the day, and then he would leave you in the hands of Misty. Jim was usually the first one up on any day and was down in the kitchen getting things ready for the day when Misty arrived at the house and walked through the door. He was always an early riser and he had gotten a shower in and a quick at-home workout session, he really needed to set the garage that is out back as a gym/hangout area. He needed to unpack the house if he was being honest with himself as he stood there in the kitchen drinking coffee and looking around at the place. He was getting ready to take another sip of coffee when he heard your soft gentle voice calling out to him "Daddy?" You asked sounding confused, you never really did well with new places and sometimes woke up confused. He smiled and set his cup down and walked up the stairs to your room, which was just a few feet and across the hallway from his. A guest room was right next to yours, Misty's room, and another was next to your father's. A study area that could be turned into a room was downstairs and then there was a basement that was finished that was going to be a game room/hangout room and it had a door that walked out into the spacious backyard. Maybe you're wondering how he could afford it but he was able to and he wanted what was best for you. The house was in a good neighborhood and close to your school. So it was perfect.

hypothetically of course bc if this post gets absolutely zero traction I’m pretending this never happened lol

[callsign-dexter]

I'm not saying no and I'm not saying yes.....

Do you ever look at a person and think, "You are the reason why murder was invented."

[callsign-dexter]

I don't like that 9-1-1 decided to do THAT to my man!!!!!! 💔💔💔💔😭 I'm not well, leave me alone with my edits and everything!!!! Like WTF!!! HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE EVERYTHING FOR THEM AND HE DID.. WHY RIP HIM AWAY LIKE THAT????????!!!

I'm afraid it is true.

Peter, who plays Bobby, has already written a letter saying thank you and bye, most of the actors and actresses are posting pictures of him saying they'll miss him, GMA (Good Morning America) had him on the show talking about it, and Tim has already done an interview about it. They apparently had this planned since last season.

A/N - it's another part of this series everyone! as per y'all, please send in requests, feedback, and enjoy!!!

After your encounter with Bobby, you head out of the salvage yard, finding all your friends at the Twinkie.

“We got it!” John B says excitedly, making you smile and give your friend a high-five at the news.

“How’d you even get out of that? We couldn’t find you.” Pope asks, watching you as you shrug confidently.

“A little emotional manipulation goes a long way, Pope.” You say, clapping your friend on the shoulder as you climb into the Twinkie, everyone mimicking you before John B drives off.

“I’m so hungry.” You hear John B mumble.

“Yeah, same.” You admit, feeling your stomach begin to grumble.

“Let’s swing by the Wreck, I’m sure my parents have some food we can have,” Kiara says, making you and the others cheer. John B takes the quickest route he possibly can to get to the Wreck so you can all eat. Since it was practically closing time for the restaurant, you were banking on leftover food, hoping it hadn’t already been thrown out.

When you arrive at the restaurant, you all enter the building and tuck yourselves away in a corner while Kiara talks to her dad. You didn’t know what they were saying, but when Mike looked over at you, you shot him a wave and a smile, hoping it would soften him enough to give you all some food. You soon see Mike nod and say something to Kiara as she hugs him, confirming to you that he’d said yes to letting you guys have some food as you bolt over to a table.

Kiara brings you and the others the food and some water as you all dig in, shoving food in your mouth to satisfy your intense hunger. You guys chatted and laughed as you ate and you watched as Kiara gestured for John B to get up and dance with her, watching with a small smile. Once you’ve all eaten and satisfied your hunger, you all head home for the night. Pope and Kiara return to their houses while you bunk at the Chateau for the night.

The next morning, the group all meets at the Chateau and heads down to the dock to test out the drone. You and Pope stay on the dock while John B and Kiara dive in the water with the drone to make sure it works.

“You know, we’re really lucky you’re a geek, Pope. We’d be up shit creek without you.” You say with a grin, clapping Pope on the back as you watch him navigate the drone, seeing John B and Kiara swimming around it before they both break the surface.

“Hey, once we get footage of the wreck, we’ll bring it to a lawyer in town and file a formal claim.” John B says, carefully treading water as you groan.

“But why do we have to do that?” You question.

“There’s maritime salvage law. We can’t just scoop a bunch of stuff off the ocean floor.” Pope says, moving to join you leaning against the bannister at the end of the dock.

“I know. It’s just, how are we going to afford a lawyer? They’re not cheap.” You argue softly, worrying about how you’d be able to afford a lawyer to fight your case.

“As soon as they see the footage, they’ll work for a comp.” John B says.

“And how do you know that?” Kiara asks, looking over at John B as she treads water.

“My dad said it, like, a million times.” John B says as if it were the only correct answer.

“This tether is really long. In the wrong weather, this thing could get pushed around.” Pope says, noting the length of the tether that came with the drone.

“We’ll go at dead calm.” John B says as thunder rumbles in the distance, getting everyone’s attention for a brief moment.

“So now, we just gotta wait around for the right weather. And today is not that day.” Pope mumbles as John B and Kiara climb out of the water while you watch the sky, knowing it won’t be long until a storm rolls in.

Deciding you have nothing else to do, you all decide to go your separate ways and reconvene when the weather is good enough to send the drone down. As you go to leave, Pope approaches you.

“Hey, do you think you can help me? My dad’s got a bunch of deliveries to do and I said I’d help out.” Pope asks, making you nod.

“Sure, I got nothing better to do.” You say with a shrug, heading with Pope to his house where you help Heyward load up his boat with the bags of deliveries before he gives you both a list of houses to take them to.

“And no dragging your feet you hear me? If I find out you’ve been finishing instead of delivering I’ll-”

“Don’t worry Heyward, I’ll keep him in line.” You joke, slinging an arm around Pope’s shoulders as Heyward chuckles slightly before looking at you pointedly.

“I was talking about you, y/n. But keep that boy of mine out of trouble, will you?” Heyward asks as you give him a salute.

“You got it, boss.” You say with a grin.

You and Pope travel down the channel in Heyward’s boat, dropping off deliveries for various customers. As you begin to travel past Kook houses, you can’t help but scowl at the lives they are currently living.

“It’s like the storm never even hit them.” Pope says, annoyance in his voice.

“They’ve got those fancy generators.” You grumble, sliding your sunglasses on your face.

Soon, you dock and Pope grabs some bags to deliver to customers.

“You take these. I’ve got these ones,” Pope says, handing you some bags as you nod with a smile.

“You got it, man.” You say, heading off in a separate direction to Pope to deliver the bags to the correct people. You take your time with the deliveries, doing your best to earn yourself some extra cash. By the end of your deliveries, you managed to earn yourself a bunch of cash in tips and you practically bounded back to the boat.

“Pope! I made a bunch of cash! I think I’m really cut out for this job, you know? You think your old man would hire me?” You say excitedly, your grin fading when Pope remains stone-faced, tears rolling down his cheeks.

“Yo, what happened, man?” You ask, gingerly reaching out to lift his cap slightly, your jaw dropping in shock when you see the bruise.

“Holy shit. Who did this to you?” You question as Pope drives the boat away from the dock.

“Rafe and Topper jumped me. They said no Pogues on their side of the island.” Pope mutters as you grit your teeth angrily.

“Those f- what are you going to do?” You say, studying Pope carefully as he looks at you, both of you seemingly sharing a similar thought as Pope drives the boat in the direction of the dock that housed Topper’s prized wakesetter.

“There it is,” Pope mutters as you stop the boat, seeing the wakesetter.

“They hit us. We hit them.” You state, tugging your bandanna off your wrist, tying it around your face, and putting your sunglasses on to conceal your identity as Pope tugs his shirt off and dives into the water, swimming across to the boat as you prep the ladder and keep a lookout. Pope pulls the plug out of the boat and returns to you with a triumphant smile.

“Look at you! I am so proud of you right now.” You praise, giving Pope a high-five.

“You can’t tell anyone about this,” Pope says, a sudden seriousness to his tone as you nod.

“Yeah, no I won’t.” You say with a nod.

“I’m being so serious. Not even John B or Kie. Okay?” Pope then says, making you nod again.

“I got it. No one will know what happened. Promise. Now gimme this.” You assure, taking the plug from Pope’s hand and hurling it far away in the water as Pope starts up the boat.

“I think I heard John B say he and Kie were going to the Break before we left, let’s grab our boards and head down there.” You say as Pope nods. You return the boat to his dad’s dock, both of you heading to grab your boards from your houses before making your way down to the beach, seeing John B and Kiara in the water.

“Hey guys!” Pope calls out to the others as you both run into the ocean, swimming out to where John B and Kiara are sitting on their boards.

“I thought you guys were going to miss out on some good waves.” Kiara jokes.

“I thought you knew me better than that, Kie.” You retort with a grin, immediately paddling out when you notice a good wave.

You loved surfing. Growing up in the Outer Banks, you were bound to fall in love with every aspect of the ocean. But surfing was special. You did it with your friends and it gave you a sense of freedom you often longed for. You had no worries when you were out on the waves. All you had to worry about was when the next wave came.

After riding the waves for a while, you and the others call it a night as the sun begins its descent across the horizon. You head back to the Chateau for the night, all of you hanging out in the garden and chatting until you decide to call it a night, ready to hopefully search for the Royal Merchant and its gold.

The next day, you and the Pogues head out to the coordinates where the Royal Merchant supposedly sank with Heyward’s boat and the drone. You sail out on the ocean, watching the waves lapping over each other until you hear John B calling for you to be careful with the navigation now as you’re nearing the right area.

“Alright, ladies and gentlemen. To going full Kook.” John B says as he readies the drone, carefully lowering it into the water. Pope moves over to the controls, navigating the drone carefully.

“Alright y/n, we’re right over it. Ten seconds northwest.” John B carefully instructs as you nod from behind the wheel.

“Got it.” You reply, being as careful as possible to keep the boat right where you needed it. You listen as Kiara calls out how many feet down the drone has gone while Pope and John B watch the drone’s monitor to keep an eye out for the wreckage.

“We’re at four hundred feet but the tide is turning,” Kiara calls out as thunder rumbles in the distance.

“Hey, y/n? Ten seconds easy. South-southeast.” John B calls over to you as you nod.

“On it.” You reply, focusing back on the controls and navigating the boat back where you needed to be.

“y/n, twenty seconds mid-speed, all right? South.” John B then instructs.

“Yup.” You confirm, doing your best to follow John B’s instructions as the storm grows nearer. The waves begin to get choppy, making the boat sway.

“We’re at nine hundred feet!” You hear Kiara announce, your focus solely on making sure the boat stays in place as the waves interfere with your plans for a smooth search mission.

Between John B’s various instructions yelled in your direction to keep the boat in place, you’re aware of Pope announcing that the drone had reached the seabed but couldn’t see anything. As you navigate, you can’t help but feel your heart sink. The Royal Merchant and its gold were supposed to be right below you.

“Oh, good god.” You hear Pope mutter, making you turn to face the three.

“What? Can you see something?” You ask.

“It’s the Royal Merchant.”
