'Safe with Rafe' Y/N x Rafe Cameron

Chapter XXVI

"Some bathroom break." Jj pouts.
"What do you mean bro? What's your issue?" Pope asks as he turns his head towards him.
"They've been gone for like 15 minutes now."
"Probably just girl stuff, you know."
"Girl stuff that includes Rafe?"
"Pffttt..." Pope sighs, "wouldn't be surprised if I'm being completely honest."

Jj stays in his propped up position on his elbows as he scans the crowd by the bathrooms and stalls for any sign of you and Kie or even Rafe, with no luck.
Jj sighs before returning his attention back to the screening.

"Wouldn't guess who we just ran into." Kie can be heard approaching the group again from behind before sitting cross legged between Pope and Jj.
"About time." Pope says.
"What do you mean Kie?" Jj asks curiously as he finally sits up straight, his full attention on Kie.
"Kelce." She replies with a raise of her eyebrows.
"Kelce?!" Pope exclaims.
"Wait- Kelce is here? So where's Y/N?" Jj asks frantically.
"Relax Jj, she's with Rafe."
"Rafe? So he knew Kelce was here? Or- actually, no. How did he know Kelce was even with you guys?" He asks with suspicion in his voice.

Kie pulls her phone out of the pocket of her denim shorts, waving it in front of Jj's face with a mischievous smirk across her face, taking pride in her hatched out plan.
"It's as easy as a little text message to Rafe about his damsel in distress and he was there in no time." Kie smiles.

Jj only shakes his head at her statement, he wasn't fond of Kie calling you Rafes damsel but he let it go, he knew deep down that it wasn't true. Even if it was, he had no right being upset about it and it wasn't his business what you do, even if that meant it would one day becomes Rafe's.
Jj stares at the grass in thought as Kie continues talking to Pope.

"-he was pretty cool, knew not to make a scene and get kicked out, listened to Y/N and left the scene without so little as a scratch, Kelce on the other hand...."
Jj abruptly stands up from his place in the grass and dusts himself off, "I'm gonna go look for em."
"Why? She's a big girl, she's fine." Kie responds with a curious cock of her eyebrow.

Jj ignores her question and continues to weave through the crowd that was currently seated amongst pillows and blankets, he stepped over peoples belongings carefully before getting to the edge of the grass and onto the pavement. He walks groggily through the crowds hovering around the food stalls and the bathrooms before his eyes land on a familiar orange shirt that stuck out in the crowd like a sore thumb and it was like suddenly, everything became blurred except for Rafes figure as he pulls away from another familiar figure, slowly to reveal you. Your eyes had started to flutter open as your face pulled away from Rafes. Jj didn't want to believe it but it was almost as if, you were pulling away from a kiss.

"Come on.." Jj hears you say as you walk around Rafes stature, causing him to turn around with you.

Jj swiftly moves behind a brick wall of the canteen area that had been closed that night, providing a cold, dark corner for him to lurk from.

"What about the others?" He hears Rafe ask.

Jj's head begun to spin with thoughts, a whole lot of mumbling coming from you and Rafe just around the corner. Until a certain sentence had started to pull things together.

"Well more about us.."
"I like you Rafe-"

"What are you doing back here?" A loud voice frightens Jj out of his corner.
"Hm? Oh! I'm just making sure the kids don't get up to any shady business back here you know, it's actually my day off." Jj's says, earning him a stare from the large security guard, "cause you know, I'm actually security too."
"I ain't ever seen you around here." The guard says in a deep voice, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Well that's because i haven't started yet."
The guard doesn't believe a word coming from Jj's mouth and instead just stares down at Jj as he refuses to budge.
"Welp, looks like you can handle it from here," Jj says as he taps the guards brawny shoulder, "so I'll pass the baton to you, my friend."

Jj's walks away towards the others, in disbelief as his thoughts unveil the scene that had just occurred before him.

"I like you Rafe."

He shakes his head agitatedly as he tries to convince himself otherwise, "no, no, can't be. Maybe I misheard." He murmurs to himself before looking up and seeing a pained Kelce, holding his hand to his  neck as he jumps into a black SUV.

"It's as easy as a little text message to Rafe about his damsel in distress and he was there in no time."

As his thoughts started rapid firing possibilities between you and Rafe, Jj started to become heated. Everything started to make sense and he didn't like that. His fists tensed up as the veins in his arms started to bulge. His jaw clenched as his fathers anger coursed through his own veins too. Inherently angry, the maybank quality. 

"Un-fucking-believable." He mumbles to himself.

Jj straightens his hat and begins to make his way to the others again, shaking his hands subtly to release any anger that had earlier coursed through him unintentionally.

"Hey, that was quick. You found them?" Pope asks.
"Sure did." Jj's responds, flashing a fraud smile before seating himself once again.

Kie sits silently as she observes Jj pitifully. She knows about you and Rafe. She knows what the boys don't but something tells her that maybe this certain boy had finally come to realise for himself. She sighs before she leans her head on his shoulder, comforting him from the sidelines.
Jj's body feels tensed against her head, no amount of affection allowing Jj to let up, his body language basically setting her concerns in stone.
Shit. She mouths.
