Numinous ~* RAFE CAMERON *~

Kicked out

"FUCK!" Rafe screams, slamming anything and everything around the docks. He sits on the pier, his legs dangling above the water and runs a hand through his hair.

"Rafe?" Cleo says quietly from behind him. He whips his head around, glaring at her.

"Go away Cleo." He says, his voice cracking slightly.

"What happened?" She asks, sitting down beside him.

"Fucking dad." He mutters, running a hand through his hair, "and fucking money." Rafe taps his hands against his head as he explains.

"Rafe you look like a psychopath calm down." Cleo says, smacking his hands away from his head.

"No!" Rafe yells standing suddenly and glaring down at her.

"Are you high?" Cleo asks, studying his eyes.

"Piss off." He mutters, storming down the pier away from her.

"Come back!" She calls after him, "bloody twat." She mutters, stomping after him.

"Piss off cleo!" Rafe yells when she catches up to him by the shed.

"Your high! You can't just walk around alone." She says.

"Ugh! Piss off!" He yells, running a hand through his hair again.

"No." She challenges. Suddenly he's upon her slamming her back into the shed wall with his hand wrapped right around her neck. He yells at her as she stratches uselessly at his hand, the cold metal of his ring biting into her neck.

Suddenly Rafe is thrown to the side and she's released. She stumbles forward into Popes arms as JJ lays punches into Rafes face.

Rafe flips him and JJ over, w him until blood surfaces.

"JJ!" Cleo yells, breaking free of Popes grip and pulling uselessly on rafes shirt.

"RAFE STOP!" She screams seeing JJs bloody nose. Rafe ushers her away harshly as he stands, kicking JJ harshly before storming off.

"J?" Cleo says, kneeling beside him on the floor.

"What a Bastard." JJ groans, sitting up and wiping his face.

"What is wrong with him!" Pope yells, kicking at a crate, "he's always finding a way to screw up our lives." He rants. Cleo stares after him, rage curling in her stomach.

"He's crazy." She answers simply, "he's high and mentally insane."

"It's not even the drugs fault, it's just him." JJ says

"Maybe the drugs are coping mechanisms." Cleo says, standing and dusting off her jeans.

"Probably." Pope mutters.

Cleo stays at John B house that night along with JJ who didn't want to go home to his dad. Cleos and JJ bonded over their family issues, both of their dads get shitfaced together so JJ and Cleo had known each other since they were young.

Cleo never really stayed at her house. She normally stayed over at Sarah's or John B's or occasionally Kies house. Sarah knew all about her parents so she always let her live with them, she even offered Cleo her own room but she refused, thinking she would be intruding.

Rafe and Cleo always fought in the house, their first real argument when Rafe rocked home at three am high and woke Wheezie and Cleo up. That was around four years ago. It just spiralled from there.

It was obvious to Cleo Rafe would never hurt Wheezie, so she used that against him.

Everyone thought Rafe was some sort of statue who feels no emotion and just gets high and hooks up with random girls.
