-----------------------

Rafe threw his head back on the seat of his dads truck as they pulled up to Barry's trailer, this is the last thing he wanted to be doing tonight

He wanted to be in Elliott's arms, knowing he was safe, knowing she was safe, he was counting down the hours till he saw her again, he wasn't lying. 9 hours till he could see her again

A smile tugged at his lips as he thought about the way her face lit up every time she was on a boat in the water. It was like a home away from home for her. He brushed the smile off his face as Ward turned the key to turn the truck off

Rafe sighed before speaking up, "I swear, I learned my lesson ok?" He practically begged his father to not come, clearly he wasn't successful.

Ward sighed from the seat next to him, Rafe turned to look at his dad who now grabbed a wad of cash out of his pocket

Ward unbuckled his seatbelt, opening his door as rafe copied his motions, "Stay in the car" Ward told him,

He watched him with a surprised look on his face but remained in the car. I just want to leave.

I need to see elliott. The blonde kept saying to himself. And he wasn't lying about it either. She had really grown on him lately and he wouldn't want it any other way

He drummed his fingers against his thighs as he tried to see his father and Barry's conversation but he was unsuccessful

"hurry the fuck up dad" he spoke to himself. As he became more stressed and reckless he closed his eyes. Trying to imagine something other than his dad or Barry

"oh.." Rafe heard from outside, followed by a sarcastic laugh, barry. He told himself

Rafe just leaned his head back again. Trying to imagine him righr after this. Sneaking over to the chateau to see elliott. Thats all he wanted in his moment

He wished he wouldn't have let her leave this morning. It was torture, his dad was yelling at him all morning, Sarah was gone, wheeze was teasing him, rose talked down to him. It was living hell.

He also realized this morning he still hadn't payed back Barry and all that barry was doing was making threats towards the boy. Mainly about elliott. How he was would hurt her if he didn't get his money

He had no clue how Barry knew about her, but all he said was, "one of my guys has seen you and that pogue hanging alot" He didn't necessarily know which one he was talking about

Rafes thoughts were interrupted when he heard grunting, he quickly and quietly got out of the truck, making his way to where his dad and Barry were

He watched as ward kicked Barry down to the ground. Multiple times. He watched as ward kicked him one last time, turning around and meeting his eyes

Rates eyes were widened with fear, he didn't know what to say, Barry's coughing begins them stopped

"I told you to say in the goddamn car" Ward spoke, keeping eye contact with his son

Rafe thought about what to say, he didn't know what he was supposed to say. He just stood there. Ward had waited for an answer but once he didn't get one he started his journey back to the truck

"get your bike" Ward told his son as he passed him

"i'll pay you back" rafe said, holding back tears, maybe elliott can help me find a job.

Ward stopped in place as rafe grabbed his bike, "no rafe" ward turned around

"you won't" he shook his head, rafe just turned to him with a confused look, eyes slightly watering, i can and I fucking will. Rafe told himself

"you know why you won't?" his father asked

"becauze your a liar" ward told him. Straight to his face, what?

"and you're a thief" ward said, rafe could feel the tears stinging his eyes, he scrunched his face up to try and stop them form falling down his face

"and you cannot be trusted" rafe tried so hard to keep the tears in, not making eye contact with his dad because if he did, he would instantly be a hot mess

"and I can't have you in my house son" This is what got rafe. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. He felt his heart practically break, his eyes widened

"dont come home" ward finished, turning around and walking to the truck

"where do you want me to go?" rafe asked his father, trying not to seem like he was about to break down, ward never stopped walking

"dad" rafe yelled, walking towards his father, tears now ran down his face, realization hit him and he didn't know what he was thinking

He stood still, darkness swallowing his father. He tried so hard for the tears to stop but they wouldn't. He begged for his father to come back. All he wanted was his fathers approval, all he wanted was a simple 'I love you', he couldnt remember when the last time his father said that to him.

He wanted ward to stop critiquing him on every thing he did wrong. He knew ward had done way worse things then him. He hated the rude comments towards him. All he wanted was a hug, and what did he get?

Fucking kicked out of the house.
