Eight years ago, a baby girl was left on the Heywards’ doorstep. No note. No explanation. No one ever came looking for her. The Heywards raised her as their own, and Pope Heyward grew up with a little sister he never expected to have. Now Y/N is eight years old—and she’s determined to follow Pope everywhere. Pope is part of the Pogues. Therefore, in Y/N’s mind, she is part of the Pogues too. Whether they’re exploring the Cut, heading out on the boat, or getting themselves into trouble, Y/N always wants to be there. Pope constantly tries to keep her safe, but his little sister has inherited his curiosity and stubbornness. JJ thinks she’s hilarious. Kiara keeps an eye on her. John B treats her like the little sister he never asked for. And Pope? Pope would do absolutely anything for her. She may not have been born a Heyward, but she’s never doubted that she belongs. Because family isn’t always about where you came from. Sometimes, it’s about the people who chose you—and loved you like you were theirs from the very beginning.
