You and JJ Maybank have been best friends for years. Through every reckless adventure, late-night beer, and disaster the Pogues somehow find themselves in, you’ve always been each other’s person. You know him better than anyone, and he knows you just as well. The two of you are inseparable, constantly teasing each other and blindly convinced that the way you care about one another is nothing more than what best friends do. Until a dive to Blackbeard’s shipwreck nearly kills you both. When the Pogues discover that Elizabeth’s necklace is hidden inside the wreck, you and JJ are the ones who go down to retrieve it. But when someone follows you, the dive quickly turns into a fight for your lives. Running out of air and with no choice but to surface early, you and JJ escape the wreck only to develop decompression sickness. Now, trapped together inside a hyperbaric chamber, you’re forced to confront just how close you came to losing each other. As the two of you finally talk about what happened beneath the surface, JJ struggles to explain why he would risk everything to save you. Because neither of you has ever stopped to question why you mean so much to the other. And maybe the truth is that you’ve both been hiding something from yourselves for years.
