What the hell Rafe Cameron? // Rafe Cameron X Reader

7: Midsummers

What was supposed to be a nap ended up being a whole night sleep.

"Sarah?" I called out for her but I got no response. I got up and gathered my stuff to leave, and I hoped that it would have been, I don't know I guess secretive. I woke up alone in my friend's bed and she wasn't there.

I did leave Sarah a note on her table though. As I walked out scrolling through my phone, yeah you guessed it, I bumped into Rafe.

"Watch where you're go-" he started before he laid his eyes on me "Y/N."

"Hi." I said shyly as I stood there awkwardly and I felt my heart beat rising.

He looked around, himself too, awkwardly, and scratched the back of his head "Um, you're staying for breakfast?" he finally asked.

"Oh, um, no. I need to get home and get ready for the midsummers." I said awkwardly nodding my head and started to walk away, "Bye!", I added without looking at him.

"Can I um, drive you home or something?", he asked following me.

"Oh no, I've got my car." I said as if it was self-explanatory.

"Well, can I- can I pick you up then?" he continued following me to the door.

"Please don't." I said cautiously.

"C'mon Y/N, I'm trying here, okay. I'm sorry for the things I did, and I-. You know what, it doesn't matter, I'll see you there.", he said and I just nodded as response and left after he shut the door in front of me.

I had a flowy, knee length, Luis-blue silk dress on and my hair on a loose princess braid and a fake flower crown on. I had minimal makeup on, because I knew I was meeting up with the boys and Kie later on, so knowing them, a full glam makeup was something  you should know to not do, and it's not like I did makeup too often either, due to the warmth and the fact that I just couldn't bother to do it.

I arrived to the country club instantly looking for Pope as I knew he was helping his dad cater this evening.

"Hi, Pope. Hi, Mr. Hayward.", I greeted the gentlemen with a warm smile as I curtseyed awkwardly.

Mr. H chuckled at my act and greeted me with a 'sweetheart' as Pope just stared at me.

"You look nice." He finally said and I laughed at him, "I mean it, JJ's gonna flip." he then proceeded to let out and instantly looked like he regretted what he just said.

"Hah, you're funny Pope." I let out a laughter as he just laughed with me awkwardly.

We chattered a little before Kie arrived, Pope had his back to us so he didn't see Kie coming,

'Smoking hot!' she mouthed to me, 'I know' I mouther back.

"Excuse me, sir." she started with an English accent "Do we have to shuck these ourselves?" She asked and I tried my hardest to not let out a snort. Pope turned to look at me with annoyed look, and prepared himself for, what he thought, some rich kid. "'Cause I might mess up my costume." she then finished as Pope finally turned to look at her and the expression on his face lightened a ton.

"We wouldn't want that now would we." Pope responded with a terrible accent and I let out a snort at him.

"That was terrible." I said with a laugh.

"It was, I was gonna let it go." Kie said looking at me with the same amused look.

We chatted for a while as we looked at all the kooks among other kooks and mocked them a little.

"Oh my god." I said as the Camerons, the kook royalties walked out like they owned the place, and in a way they did. Ward was going to get some award this evening, and this midsummer was Sarah's and Topper's coming out party, what ever that meant.
