You've been out with the pouges all day and we're having a whole lotta fun. You hung out with all of them as much as you could since school was coming up again and knew your parents wouldn't let you out as much. You've had a couple drinks but not to many. You get a text from Sarah saying that she needs your help.

"Guys," you say putting your drink the cup holder,

"Can you drop me off at the Cameron's house?" You ask.

JJ seems to look jealous for a second but then it goes away,

"Yea we can drop you off. What do you need to do at the Cameron's house?" JJ asks,

"Sarah needs my help for something," you say rolling your eyes.

Since school is coming up faster than you expected it to, you've been trying to spend as much time as you can with the pouges. Sarah calling for your assistance every day at least once doesn't help..

JB looks excited to go to the Cameron's, you know why but no one else is paying attention; so you just let it go.

***

You arrive at the Cameron's pier and JJ helps you out of the boat. You text Sarah that you're here and JJ hands you your clothes and towel.

"We'll see you tonight?" JJ looks up at you and asks,

"Pretty sure!" You say, "I'll let you know," you start walking down the pier and meet Sarah at the end.

"Hey! Sorry, I know you just helped me yesterday but Rafe won't do anything to help. Is that okay?" Sarah asks,

"Yea, yea it's fine." You quickly put your jean shorts on and put your phone in your back pocket. You put your shirt on the chair you walk pat as you walk into the Cameron's house.

"What do you need help with?" You ask slightly annoyed,

"We'll my dad wants me to help Rafe with something but I'm not going to do that if he's not going to help me." She says turning away from you,

"We'll maybe I can get Rafe to help us out?" You recommend.

Sarah turns back to face you,

"Yea maybe! Rafe is upstairs, you can go ask him. I'm going to go ask my dad what else he needs me to do." She says as she starts her way to find Ward.

"God I hate Ward," you think as your walking up the stairs.

When you get up stairs there's so many doors, you look around to try and see if there's any signs on the doors to tell what the rooms are. No luck. You try listening instead, you hear faint music so you follow the beats. The last door at the hallway is where the music is coming from. You don't know what room or who's room it is so you knock. You hear rumbling inside the room so you knock again. The music stops and you hear footsteps. I really hope this isn't Ward's room. The door opens and you see Rafe, with wet hair and a towel wrapped around his waist.

"Oh hey y/n! What are you doing here?" Rafe asks,

"Oh uh, hey, I-" you put a stand of hair behind your ear and take a breath,

"Sarah needed my help since you wouldn't," I manage to say,

"Ohhh, so she sent you up here to ask me if I can help her? Pfft, brat." He walks back into his room.

You don't know if I should follow him or if I should just go back downstairs..  you decide to follow him in and you see him fiddling with the he towel,

"Uhm, so will you help us?" You ask,

"Oh- uhh sure?" He says still fiddling with the towel.

You physically can't move, you know what he's doing, he's doing it on purpose. You can't let him get the best of you, he's Sarah's brother for god sakes!

"Ok um yea, im gonna go downstairs, you change or whatever and meet us in the back." I say as im walking out. I close the door behind me.

"Holy shit."  You think, you lean up against the door and take a couple deep breathes.

You hear drawers opening and closing, footsteps all coming from inside the room. You make your way to the stairs to go find Sarah so you can get back to your hang out sesh with the pogues.

You find Sarah talking to Wheezie when you find her out by the bushes alongside the pier. Sarah brushes off Wheezie and runs up to you,

"So is Rafe going to help?" she asks,

"Yea he'll be down in a sec." I say not making eye contact.
