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

16: I envy you

"Dude, where've you been?" JJ suddenly asked and John B was walking across the yard towards the porch.

"John B?" I exclaimed. He looked pissed, and sweaty and suddenly he stopped in front of me and Rafe.

"You two look pretty comfortable with each other." He said and I looked at him confused.

"What?" I whispered out.

"Y/N!" He shouted making me flinch. Quickly Rafe pulled me behind him.

"Yo, what the hell is your problem?" Rafe exclaimed.

"Woah, what's going on, big guy." JJ said as he pulled John B a little back.

"Her dad, and his dad are working together!" he shouted again and I then looked at Rafe swiftly parting myself from him, "Oh, and yeah, Ward killed my dad, and your's helped cover it up."

"What is he talking about?" I asked Rafe who looked as confused and shocked as me, "What are you talking about?" I then turned to ask John B.

"Don't act like you don't know." He said angrily and charged inside.

"I'm not! I've been with you guys the whole summer, in between what I've got time to plot agains you with my daddy, who by the way has been on the main land this whole time!" I shouted and went after him Rafe following closely.

He rapidly moved around the small space of his home, "What are you looking for?" Pope asked as he was now behind me, "You alright man? What's up?" He said now going behind him.

"What are you looking for?" Kie asked.

Now everybody was inside confused and worried, "Y/N, some-- some Daniel guy, he told me to say hi to you for him." He said with heavy breathing as he paced around the small living room.

"What?" I asked my stomach dropping.

"Who's Daniel?" JJ asked, "This might be a bad time to ask, but why the hell are you following her like a lost poppy?" JJ turned to Rafe, who just looked at him not knowing what to say.

"Who is he? Another kook lover of yours?" John B asked going through the couch.

This all made me anxious, my breathing was getting tighter and tighter, my eyes started to fill with tears as John B's question reeled over and over again in my head.

"Wait? Another?" I heard JJ ask in echos.

"John B stop!"

"Huh, Y/N?" he said pulling out a gun from in between the cushion why was he being like this? Before I could slap him across the face as, now, rage grew in me Rafe stepped past me blowing John B's face with his fist. With this JB lost his balance and the gun dropped.

It took me a hot second to realize that now Rafe was repeatedly punching John B as everybody pulled him off him, Kie with more sympathizing look on her face.

I started crying. Mid all this, tears started to fall down my cheeks. I felt my body trembling. We've never fought like this before, ever. I've, actually never seen John B this angry before, and the fact that he was angry me broke my heart even more.

"Seriously, who is this Daniel guy." JJ asked as he sat down on the couch exhausted.

John B was on the floor looking at me with realization of his words, but anger and frustration was still visible on his face

"Daniel is Y/N's brother, he did bad things to her, and you kinda unknowingly fucked her up just a little more." Kie finally said.

I was stood in Rafe's arms next the couch sobbing, "And, looking at-- that," JJ said motioning me and Rafe, "you're a thing?" He asked sounding like, he didn't care to care.

I turned to him with cautiousness, "Are you mad?" I asked, not really knowing why.

"All of this. It's a lot to take in, you guys." Pope said behind me and I turned to see him. He had sat down leaning on some cabinet, just trying to take everything in, "You two, by the way. Definitely weird." He finally said looking at me and then Rafe, who still stood in his spot, not saying anything, looking rather stressed, but in an awkward way.

"Rafe." Pope started again standing up and walking towards him, "If you hurt her." Pope said all protective and brotherly and JJ got up walking next to him with the same posture and attitude.

"And if you were a dog, you'd be a weird combination of a golden-retriever and some huge ass guard dog." JJ said, Rafe looked at him, now with a rather dumbfounded look.

I shared a weirded look with Kie who just shrugged her shoulders.

"Pope, I'd never hurt her." Rafe finally said, after cautiously stepping a foot back away from the two, "And JJ, thanks man, and if you were a dog, you'd be some crack-headed ass of a chihuahua." And to that an unexpected snort left Kie.

"Y/N, I'm sorry." Suddenly John B said as he stood up, changing the lighter atmosphere of a room back into the heavy and serious.

"It's okay." I said standing up as well.

"I'm need to go see Sarah." He then said and just walked out.

It was already getting dark out. The rest of us staid at the chateau, including Rafe, and just hung out. At first we talked out, amongst other things, me and Rafe, and pretty much after that, we just sat on the porch.

At some point Kie and Pooe went in side.

I stood up to go in to use the bathroom, "Play nice boys, I need to take a piss." I said patting Rafe's thigh.

"So, just the two of us, huh." I heard JJ say and curiosity git the better of me and I neglected my need to piss and staid behind the corner to listen.

"JJ." Rafe said after an awkward second, " I envy you." He then said which took me back by a surprise, why would he say that?

"What?! What would you possibly envy about me?" JJ started with rather amusing tone, " My dad beats me like a fricking punching bag, I live on scratch and I probably own like, what, total of two piece's of clothing."

"I— totally not that." Rafe said with a taken back tone, "I envy— I envy how Y/N love you, all of you." He finally said and for some reason my heart sank a little.

"What? What do you mean dude"

"I mean like— like you don't have to do or prove to her in anyway or  anything and she just, love's you." Rafe said with a little troubled tone

"I mean, yeah, we're family." JJ said with a genuine tone, "And anyway, I've been hitting on her for years, and the closest I've gotten to her is a kiss on the cheek and a hug."

I smiled to myself listening to them, "Whatcha doin'?" I heard behind me, Kie.

"Nothin'." I responded.

She walked out Pope behind her and then I finally followed, "It's getting real late, I worried about JB, I think we should go and look for him." She said with a genuine look of worry.
