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

8: Mackin' on Sarah Cameron

"So, the gold never went down with the Royal Merchant." John B shot us with the statement as we sat around a fire in te chateau, after we fled the midsummer's.

Right about now I was happy that my parent's weren't here, they'd flip if they'd see me right now, if they'd see me running out of the midsummer's like that and with whom I was running out with. They'd lecture me about how I'd get pregnant if I keep running around with the pogues like this, and they'd lecture me about how I should be spending time with people on my level; fellow kooks, and how I was embarrassing them, but, as I said in the beginning, it's only convenient that they're enjoying time on the main land.

"Oh my god, here we go again with this." Pope huffed as we all; me and Kie, looked at JB with confused looks except JJ.

"No, alright, wait." he started and I turned to look at him, "Hear him out, alright."

JB looked at us with a smug face as he held up his finger to his lips "It's been here the whole time." He said and looked around at us "It's on the island."

"Are you serious?" Kie asked with creeping excitement in her voice.

"Oh my god." I exclaimed with excitement.

And of course Pope had to doubt everything, it was his thing, keeping us on the ground "I'd like to voice my skepticism."

"I'm sure you would." JB said pointing a finger at him standing up "But. Can I present you with my evidence, sir?" He said all celestially.

"Proceed." Pope responded waving his hand.

"Alright. So, in my backpack, I have a letter from Denmark Tanny." He started, only to be interrupted by Kie asking who the hell was Denmark Tanny, but I, personally, was glad that she asked.

"Denmark Tanny was a slave that survived the Royal Merchant wreck. Check this out." JB continued handing Kie the letter, "Here you go. Okay, slaves weren't mentioned as crew members on the ship, but my dad, he found the complete manifest. That was his big discovery. Tanny used the gold form the merchant to buy his freedom."

JB filled us up with the information he had found as the letter was passed on to each of us to read. It was surreal, to be honest. For so long people have been trying to find the gold, but our John B Routledge found an actual lead on it.

Everything was exiting and fun until John B let out something about Sarah bringing us something when Pope asked for the plan.

"Hold on. Sarah? Wh- why sarah?" She asked, and the exited tone in her voice was all gone.

I let out a deep sigh as I realized, and connected the dots to what Sarah said to me and this, "Oh god." I whispered out.

"This is gonna be good." JJ said and sat down next to me af if to get out of the way of the parents fighting.

"Sarah, um she-"John B started "She got me into the archives in Chapel Hill yesterday, and that's where I got the letter." He explained and I looked at him with wide eyes as my thoughts were confirmed.

"You were in Chapel Hill with Sarah Cameron?" Kie asked and she was clearly hurt by JB's actions. "Y/N, you hang out with Sarah every now and then, did you know about this?" she turned to me and I shot my hands up in defense shooking my head.

"Yeah, um--"

"He's mackin' on her." JJ let out.

JB started to deny him "You're totally macking Sarah." I then said as Kie turned her eyes on me waiting for explanation "Sarah told me she found someone real nice and shit and went on praising this guy, and then she said who it was." I explain and nodded my head towards JB.

"I wasn't macking on her, okay? I was using her for access." He let out as he tried to defense himself.

"You're being an asshole." I said.

"Did you tell her about the treasure?"Kie asked still irritated.

"I was trying to get into the archives."

"Is that a yes?"

"I-- I left out key details."

"You, what? You let a kook in on our secret." She the proceeded to let out.

"Ouch Kie." I let out. I knew she didn't mean me, but the way she said it, it stung a little.

"I didn't mean you! You were here from the start, and you're one of us!" She yelled as I just staid quiet.

"I was just using her for information!" JB yelled back, he went on about how he was making us filthy rich, and how we'd spent the money, "Do I look like the type to fall for Sarah Cameron?" He then asked still trying to defense himself.

"Do you want us to answer that, or?" Pope asked.

"Stop-- just stop."

After the arguing and all, we found ourselves in the ER. I know right, how'd we get from the chateau to the ER? Well, the answer you've been waiting for; drunken Topper, and JB was indeed macking on Sarah, and how was that confirmed? After Topper had pushed JB off the railing, Sarah rushed to him and kissed him. Like in a Romeo and Juliet way, in a way that she would kill herself if John B died. Ok that was a little exaggerated, but still.

We had staid as long as the visiting hours were open, but because we weren't 'family' we couldn't see him. Though we all tried to tell the people at the hospital that he only had us, they didn't let us see him, especially as he was unconscious.

Kie's dad picked her up from the hospital, as I drove Pope and JJ back with the Twinkie and then drove it back to the chateau to pick up my car.

I was alone at the chateau, it felt so different, knowing that JB was at the hospital and the fact that he wasn't probably going to be there in the morning, right away anyway.

The next morning I had driven to the Cameron's house in a hope that Sarah was there. I wanted to check up on her. But instead? I got Rafe.

I waited at the door for someone, in my liking Sarah, to open the door, I waited for probably twenty-seconds, because let's be real; no one waits more than that unless it's like a job interview or some shit, and as I turned away to leave, the door opened from behind me and I was greeted with a familiar face of a boy, a very contradictory boy.

"Hi!" I greeted him with a surprised look.

"Mornin'." he said with a little morning voice, I admit it was only, what eight or nine in the morning.

"Is, um-- is Sarah home?" I asked him stepping closer.

"No, no." He said looking around.

"Oh, okay then." I said as I did my leave.

"Did you want to come in? We have coffee, I think." He said in with the usual head scratch that he did so every often.

"You know what, why not." I said and walked in as he staid behind to close the door.

It was weird, I've been here so many time, but never by his invitation, I knew my way around this house, but some how, I didn't now, not when it was him inviting me.
