“I should be so hurt
‘Cause your rejection is so obvious…”
You walk down the beach, waching the big waves and John B and JJ riding them with laughs imprinted on their stupid faces you love so much. Kie and Sarah are there as well, standing on the hot sand with their swimsuits on, so as you approach them you take off your shirt and short pants, doing the same with your pair of black Vans. You glared at your boyfriend, but he seemed like he didn’t was aware of your presence yet. He was laughing, standing on the surf board and getting lost into the waves, his wet blonde hair a mess on his head. You were staring, but you just couldn’t help yourself. After a year of friendship and three months of relationship, he still have the power to leave you speechless with how amazing he is.
“Stop drolling, [Y/N]” Kie says laughing and you and Sarah imediatelly laugh with her, you having a bashful smile on your pink lips as you push a piece of hair behind your ear. You falled really damn hard for JJ Maybank.
While you were talking with the girls about the turtles and saving them after the hurricane from three days ago, John B and JJ got out of the water and approached you. But you frown in surprise and confusion as you send JJ a big ass smile, excited to finally have his presence next to you and he only waved at you, walking right into the Chateau after.
“What’s wrong with him?” Sarah asked with a frown and you don’t know what to say. You just let your fingers into sand and looked away from their confused glares. You are just as confused as they are.
“I wish I would know too..”
“John B?” Kie says with a raising eyebrow, looking at the boy who was surprisingly silent.
He just shrug while pulling Sarah closer to his wet body.
“Hey, don’t look at me like that! don’t know anything.”
You didn’t really trusted him, but you tried to ignore the knot that is growing inside your stomach.
“It’s just a JJ thing. He will come around, don’t worry [Y/N].”
But how could you? How could you not worry about JJ when that’s your job? Taking care of his impulsive ass.
“Damn, who pissed in JJ’s bong?” Pope asked with a frown as he approached you and the Pogues laughed a bit. He was just walking out of the Chateau and JJ didn’t even saw him, almost catching him between the door and the wall.
You wanted to laugh too and you tried to, but it seemed so fake.
“And I feel stupid and I cry
And I cry and I cry and I cry…”
Days later, JJ’s mood became something more than that. He was avoiding you and everyone saw it. The pogues keep telling you to have no worries, that this is something he always does and it was partially true. He has days once in a while, usually after going home, when he get really moody and his temper is shorter than usual, but back then he was never cold and indifferent towards you and the Pogues. He was still your funny and warm JJ, but just a little more angry wich always excited you, especially when you were alone. But now it was different and you just couldn’t stay like this anymore. The knot in your stomach is so big now that you have breathing issues everytime you see him leaving the Chateau as soon as you walk in.
But today you gonna talk. You didn’t care, not even another hurricane would stop you from it.
The Pogues were out on a double date, which should involve you and JJ too, but apparently you don’t act like a couple anymore. You guess that was his way of telling you to fuck off, but it hurt even more than actually hearing it from him.
“Do we have any food left?” He ask as he walks into the Chateau, thinking that he’s talking with John B.
“Yea, some cold pizza.” You say with a stern voice and you put your arms at your chest, watching him. You can’t really read his face when he saw you, but clearly it wasn’t happiness. He groaned and turned around to walk out, you stopping him by grabbing his arm.
“JJ, what the fuck? Do you think I’m stupid?”
“Nah, you’re pretty smart actually.” He simply says and shrug while walking into the kitchen, opening the fridge and looking for that pizza you were talking about.
You can’t believe how ignorant he was. It drives you insane, but you tried your best to remain calm.
“Why are you treating me like this? Like shit?”
“I’m not, that’s who I am. The door is right there if you don’t like it, princess.”
You shut your eyes and look at him, falling apart on the inside as you still try to look calm on the outside. He wasn’t seeing your face as he was still turned to the fridge, but you’re sure that he knows what he’s doing to you right now. Calling you “princess” wasn’t a compliment or a joke as he used to. It was a insult. Reminding you that you are not one of them and you will never be.
“What? JJ…What the fuck? Why-Why are you doing this to me?” You don’t even try to hide your tears as it filled your eyes, blurring your vision of him when he turned to you.
“Don’t start with emotional shits now, okay? How long have we been together anyway? 3 weeks? Not a big deal.” He grabbed a beer instead of any food and walked past you, but you move in front of him, not letting him go away from you again.
“Stop fucking lying and acting like this! This is not you, J…You love me and I know it. This is not you, baby. Just talk to me…” Your voice crack while you screamed with tears wetting your cheeks and chin. You realizing that he’s lying to you because he was always excited to remaind you how long you made it together. And hearing that it wasn’t a big deal when you give him your virginity, broke your heart in your chest in tiny pieces that stabbed your lungs, your everything, ripping you apart on the inside.
You gasp for air, not able to control yourself anymore and he throws the beer can into the door, spilling it everywhere. His whole body was tensed, his jawline and fists clenched. This was the most of emotions he had show to you in the last week.
“You’re just a kook, a spoiled daddy’s girl, how can you truly know who I am? You don’t know shit about me and my life, [Y/N]” He screams in your face and you’re whole body is shacking in pain, but you don’t take any step back. You’re stunned.
“Cause you’re not tellin me shit, JJ! You’re not telling me anything and you fucking expect me to understand you. I may not be one of you and you will never find enough in me, but I’m trying my best for fucks sake! How can I do that when I don’t even….”
You shut your mouth, watching his face as you wipped your tears away. Inside of him there was a storm that was ripping apart every piece of him because of hurting you right now. But he just can’t help it. People always leave and especially when you are rich as fuck and you have a lot more opportunites than a stupid Pogue. Why woud you stay? For what?
“You don’t even what?” He asks with a lower voice and you let out another sob, glaring right into his blue icy eyes as you talk.
“Maybe you’re true. Maybe I don’t know how you are at all.”
“Yea” He just nods his head and his wet eyes followed your body as you walked out of the Chateau, your hand covering your mouth to shut down the scream that you need to let it out.
You got into your car and you let your head on the steering wheel as you cry in silence, hearing the waves and the loud rock music that was coming from the Chateau.
How could you be this stupid? You really did believe that things will work out for you, you got along so well and you put your whole heart on the table. For him to just throw the fucking table away.
“But then I tell myself that it will be okay
But it’s not true, I still want you…”
You forgot how going out felt like.
After almost a month of not leaving your house at all, you finally accepted to go to the beach party this night. But you didn’t wanted to go with Kie and Sarah since you know they will hang out with JJ as well, so you just went with the Kooks, some of your girl friends from high school.
You keeping telling yourself that you will be fine to see him again. That you have to show him how okay you are after he broke your stupid heart. But finally seeing him at the bonfire caught you off guards and your eyes became wet. You can feel his glare on yours and when you finally have the courage to make eye contact with him, you need all the strength you find in yourself to keep calm.
He looked just as bad as you, but he was still breathtaking handsome. Even with dark circle around his eyes, a little beard growing and bloodshot tired eyes. He wasn’t joking or laughing with the others, he wasn’t flirting with the Tourons around him. He wasn’t JJ and you weren’t yourself. You couldn’t be without each other and when he sent you a little sad smile you know he realized it too.
It’s weird that after breaking your heart and calling you out without even a damn reason, you still find yourself wanting him. Your body and your heart still ache for him and his touch.
“Lately, I’ve been thinking about
All the things that we’ve been through… ”
You got up from Jessica to go to fill your cup again. Drinking makes you feel a little better and this month you really took advantage of that, drowing the memories and feelings with fancy wines and champagnes, not even trying to hide that from your father.
You almost scream when a firmly hand is placed on your mouth and pull you more into the woods. You know who this is without turning around.
“You scared the shit outta me…Stop doing that” You talk like you were cool again and you both realized that, your uncomfortable smiles showing it. He scratch the back of his neck as he put a few meters between you two. You felt that right into your heart, but he was just doing it because he know that he’s not really able to control himself around you.
“How are you?” He asks and you roll your eyes.
“This is what we gonna have now? Small talks?”
“I just wanna know if you are doing well, [Y/N].”
You want to say yes. But he raise his eyebrows at you, watching you with his clear eyes. Their color is darker now because the weak light only coming from the moon, but you know his features way too well. You used to admire and analyze him every morning when you woke up first on the couch at the Chateau. That became JJ’s room and then you and JJ’s room. You didn’t have much, but you were beyond happy.
“No, J. I’m not.”
“Lately, I regret all the fucked up
Things that I’ve put you throug…”
He is looking like he’s thinking really hard at something and you let him time. You both remaining quiet for some moments, still hearing music, laughs and screams from the beach party.
“[Y/N] I’m sorry for everything I said to you. I had to. But…I-I don’t think I can go on without you there, princess.”
You shut your eyes at the nickname. He used it again and this time it wasn’t a insult like the last time.
“Why-Why did you do it?”
He hesitated, but your wet eyes are locking on his and he know that he can’t get away with it anymore.
“Your father talked to me. He told me that if I keep the relationship with you, you won’t be going to college. That he will get you out in the street.” You can see the pain on his face as your own changed from the pain of hearing that.
Your own father did that…
You thought about ending your life and all of that because your father.
You let out a loud sob as you ran into his strong warm arms, him quickly grabbing you. He’s holding your face at the crook of your neck as you keep crying and screaming that you can’t believe that.
“I couldn’t destroy your future. You wanna go to the college. I don’t-…I can’t ruin that for you.”
You bit on your lip as tears fall on the hot skin of his neck. You close your eyes, slowly being calmed down by his presence, by the warmth of his body and his touches on your skin. You lift your head and he lean his head closer to yours, your foreheads pressed together as you whispered with your eyes now open and partially dry.
“I guess you will have a rommate at the Chateau. If that’s okay…”
“W-what?”
“Still tryna learn to be personal
Still uncomfortable being me
Still tryna learn to be vulnerable…”
“Yea, if that’s okay…You’re more important than a stupid college, JJ.”
His warms wrap around your waist, keeping you close to him and locking your eyes together. You gently touch his dark circle with the tip of your fingers and you slowly and softly kiss them, your hands running through his hair.
“I don’t wanna ruin your future, [Y/N]..Mine is ruined. If I would do that to yours, I wouldn’t be able to ever forget myself.”
“You won’t, baby stop saying that. What if-What if I will work at The Wreck? Kie won’t mind that.”
He looked away for a few short moments and then softly kiss the top of your freckled nose.
“We will see that, sweet thing.” A smile is slowly playing on his plump lips and you want so bad to kiss him right now, but there’s still is one important thing.
“But you have to talk to me, JJ. We-…We can’t have a relationship when we aren’t open up to each other.”
“I hate being-…Being vulnerable and emotional.”
You whisper “i know” but you can’t keep your smile for yourself only. You look at him with pure adoration and love.
“But I swear I will try for you.”
Your heart and legs melt at his words and you pull him to your lips but he talks again, barely touching your lips with his.
“I would give you all I have, [Y/N]. All just to see you happy.”
You bring him into the kiss, your tongue quickly meeting his and as you slowly tasted each other, the knot in your stomach is long gone. You smile into the kiss because you know that he would really do anything for your happiness and he just proved that by breaking his own hurt to hurt you.
One hundred years ago, Einstein’s theory of general relativity was supported by the results of a solar eclipse experiment. Even before that, Einstein had developed the theory of special relativity — a way of understanding how light travels through space.
Particles of light — photons — travel through a vacuum at a constant pace of more than 670 million miles per hour.
All across space, from black holes to our near-Earth environment, particles are being accelerated to incredible speeds — some even reaching 99.9% the speed of light! By studying these super fast particles, we can learn more about our galactic neighborhood.
Here are three ways particles can accelerate:
Electromagnetic fields are the same forces that keep magnets on your fridge! The two components — electric and magnetic fields — work together to whisk particles at super fast speeds throughout the universe. In the right conditions, electromagnetic fields can accelerate particles at near-light-speed.
We can harness electric fields to accelerate particles to similar speeds on Earth! Particle accelerators, like the Large Hadron Collider and Fermilab, use pulsed electromagnetic fields to smash together particles and produce collisions with immense amounts of energy. These experiments help scientists understand the Big Bang and how it shaped the universe!
Magnetic fields are everywhere in space, encircling Earth and spanning the solar system. When these magnetic fields run into each other, they can become tangled. When the tension between the crossed lines becomes too great, the lines explosively snap and realign in a process known as magnetic reconnection. Scientists suspect this is one way that particles — for example, the solar wind, which is the constant stream of charged particles from the Sun — are sped up to super fast speeds.
When magnetic reconnection occurs on the side of Earth facing away from the Sun, the particles can be hurled into Earth’s upper atmosphere where they spark the auroras.
Particles can be accelerated by interactions with electromagnetic waves, called wave-particle interactions. When electromagnetic waves collide, their fields can become compressed. Charged particles bounce back and forth between the waves, like a ball bouncing between two merging walls. These types of interactions are constantly occurring in near-Earth space and are responsible for damaging electronics on spacecraft and satellites in space.
Wave-particle interactions might also be responsible for accelerating some cosmic rays from outside our solar system. After a supernova explosion, a hot, dense shell of compressed gas called a blast wave is ejected away from the stellar core. Wave-particle interactions in these bubbles can launch high-energy cosmic rays at 99.6% the speed of light.

Una nueva capa sobre nuestro córtex y fuera de los límites del craneo.
I’m really intrigued about this shipping thing and who I would match haha...Can I have an Outer Banks ship? My icon is actually me! I’m a straight female, 5’5 with mid length brown hair and brown eyes. I love older music like 70s rock bands but also love pop/rock music for driving with the windows down like Taylor Swift or Avril Lavigne. I’m from South Carolina and I love Kayaking and Paddle Boarding I also like just reading a good book. The most important thing to me is a sense of adventure!
outer banks
i ship you with john b!
• you and john b go on adventures all the time. there isn’t a mountain or hiking trail you two haven’t gone on. you guys also sneak into a lot of abandoned places.
• he also would teach you how to surf. he’s not the best teacher, but you get the hang of it anyway.
• naps in the twinkie>
• him laying his head in your lap while you read
• i feel like he might listen to the same music you do
• screaming complicated by avril with the windows down and full volume
TRANQUILITY
chapter three
The waves crashed against her body, as she tried to find a wave to ride out, both her she JB being completely beat by the waves. She saw into the distant, him looking toward a boat, both kids looking at each other then back at the death wish of a boat.

She decided to wait out the storm at John b's house, and walking in to see jj, she assumed he had the same idea.
"Why are you here." He didn't look toward Alex, but knew it was her.
"She's staying here, and sharing a bed with your ass so better cheer up." John b responded before alex could
"No no no no, i'm not sharing a bed with her, i'll sleep on the floor." He complained.
She simply sat down on the bed, as John b went into his room.
She soon realized she had no clothes to change into, which meant she either slept in her underwear or wet clothes.
"Why are you thinking so hard?" JJ questioned.
She snapped out of her thoughts and looked toward the boy who was snuggled up in the bed he just said he wasn't sleeping in.
"I have nothing to change into." She mumbled, not breaking eye contact.
"Well doesn't that suck." He replied, turning away from the girl.
So she slipped out of the wet bathing suit and clothes, and put on her underwear and sports bra. The boy turned around, realizing she had just changed into the slightest amount of clothes.
His jaw clenched as she climbed in bed. He sat up and roughly pulled his crew neck of his body, throwing it toward the girl.
She didn't say anything, but simply smiled and put it on, before snuggling into the comforter.
The truth is, he couldn't stand knowing she was half naked right next to him, and definitely didn't want anyone else to see her like that.

Alex was woken up by john b opening the front door, and jj grunting, She sat up and stretched before following him out the door.
"Damn." She whistled
John b turned to face her before laughing.
"Nice shirt." He joked.
She quickly looked down, and was about to respond before jj spoke from behind her.
"agatha did some work huh?" He asked
"Yeah she did."
Alex walked back inside to change, and wanted to call kie, but there was no service.
"shit."
"come on fizzy, we're going fishing." jj yelled from the porch.
She sighed and packed her bag to go on the boat.
"Who first?" She asked walking down the dock.
"Pope, kie's probably shitting bricks cause you didn't go home." JB responsed
"then maybe you shouldn't of let her stay." jj mumbled.
"Well it seems you didn't mind that much because she woke up in your hoodie."
Alex's face went red, and jj's jaw clenched once again. He didn't know how to respond, so he just turned around.
The boys made comments to the other islanders, while alex stayed quiet in thought on the way to popes dock.
She didn't understand why he hated her, but was starting to get tired of it.
"well look who we have here." John said toward pope washing off the dock.
"We are declaring a pogue meeting, attendance mandatory" Alex yelled.
"I cant my pops got me on lockdown." He pouted
"oh come on pope." alex called
"Your dad's a pussy over" jj replied pretending to be talking into a radio.
"I heard that you little bastard." Hayward appeared behind his son.
Alex waves quickly to the man, she always loved hayward, and she was definitely his favorite out of popes friends.
"We need your son." john b spoke to pope's dad
"day after hurricane is a free day." jj chimed in.
"Ouuu yeah, we have security clearance." Alex added
"Get in the boat." John b mouthed toward pope
Pope frantically jumped in the boat apologizing to his dad and the boat drove away.
"Okay, she's gonna be pissed, so be prepared." Alex told the boys.
"Hey boys." Kiara called while walking down the dock. "Hey sister who doesn't know how to let me know if she's alive or not."
"Oh kie i love you, and i was with JB of course i was safe." Alex responsed.
"whatcha got, you got some juice boxes?" John b asked.
"you know, just some yogurt and carrot sticks." Kie laughed
"How about my kind of juice box?" jj smirked
She passed out the beers, alex shrugging her off, having brought her own drink.
"Alex what's in this?" Pope asked the girl, sniffing the water bottle
"Nothing." she mumbled trying to take it out of his grasp.
"Is this straight vodka?" Everyone paying attention now, popes face turned into a worried glare.
"It's just a boat day drink. it means nothing."
"Alex?" jj said, making her turn. He never called her that.
"Guys it's fine."
Kie and JB shared worried looks. She walked over to her sister and grabbed her arm.
"are you drinking again?" Kie whispered into Alex's ear
She swiftly walked past her "no." She turned "jj what the fuck!" She yelled watching the blonde poor the drink out into the water.
"oops." He laughed.
xxx
"hey you guys wanna see a party trick?" jj climbed to the front of the boat.
"Oh god i'm moving." John b quickly sat behind pope who was driving.
"go a little faster pope." jj commented
"Ou i wanna try." Alex walked toward jj
He looked at her with annoyance and sighed.
They both lifted the bottles to their mouths trying to catch the beer.
"Ew you're getting beer in my hair." Kie screamed, but was cut off, as the boat lunged forward, throwing JJ and alex off and into the water.
"what the hell pope?"
Alex hit the surface of the water with a cough.
"fizzy, you good?" jj asked beside her.
"Yeah i'm good."
Did he actually care? she thought.
"jj you okay?" pope called from the boat
"I'm think my heals touched the back of my head."
"Sand bar. the tide changed."
"Thank you captain obvious." alex swam toward the boat.
"Guys, i think there's a boat down there?"

What would happen if I go into a black hole? Do you think I would disappear forever or would I still exist inside the black hole?
Two of the three Astrobee robots are scheduled to launch to space this month from our Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia! Tune in to the launch at www.nasa.gov/live.

This colorful image, taken by our Hubble Space Telescope between Feb. 12 and Feb. 18, 2018 , celebrated the Earth-orbiting observatory’s 28th anniversary of viewing the heavens, giving us a window seat to the universe’s extraordinary tapestry of stellar birth and destruction.
At the center of the photo, a monster young star 200,000 times brighter than our Sun is blasting powerful ultraviolet radiation and hurricane-like stellar winds, carving out a fantasy landscape of ridges, cavities, and mountains of gas and dust.
This region epitomizes a typical, raucous stellar nursery full of birth and destruction. The clouds may look majestic and peaceful, but they are in a constant state of flux from the star’s torrent of searing radiation and high-speed particles from stellar winds. As the monster star throws off its natal cocoon of material with its powerful energy, it is suppressing star formation around it.
