As You Held onto Me

“Have you been back there?” Kiara asked.Sarah shook her head. “Not since the week we were back, to get the Pogue and bring it over to the marina.”Kie barely remembered those first few days after El Dorado - so full of grief and confusion and fear and after a while she sort of just let it fade from her memory.The one thing she did remember was JJ wrapping her in his arms every night, waking with her during every nightmare, and soothing the bad memories with his lips and his hands, and her doing the same for him. That part she remembered.“You ever think about it?” Sarah asked.Kie exhaled a deep breath. “Yeah, sometimes. It was home in a way my house never was.”----Five months after getting back from El Dorado, and with the gold not being available to use quite yet, the four Pogues without a house to return to crash at a condo that doesn't quite feel like home. Everything is different and trying to adjust to their new normal is much harder than Kiara expected it to be. And while they try to figure out what comes next, John B and JJ are gone almost every day off doing something they won't tell anyone about, the result of their trauma and insecurities flare hot.
