e i g h t - rafe

"want another beer?" rafe asked.

i picked my head up from the beach towel, "yes actually, thank you"

rafe and i had the perfect boy and girl friendship. we'd go to the keg parties at night and get drunk while laughing at the tourists. but the only problem was, i secretly had feelings for him but always ignored the thought of us together.

i sat up and squinted, "oh my god"

"what?"

i took off my sweatshirt, revealing my bikini top, "i think i just found a cute guy. i'm gonna go get his number"

rafe stood up and grabbed my hand, "just- stay with me. they can be creeps"

"oh- yeah you're right"

i turned around to see a guy staring at my body but rafe quickly made a comment, "how much longer are you gonna stare?"

"rafe what's your problem?"

he walked up to the guy, "he's my problem"

"who even are you dude?"

rafe punched him in the face then pushed him. the guy got up and tackled rafe to the ground and began to punch him. he's always had anger issues and sometimes became violent but he never showed that side of him in front of me. but right now i was seeing it, and i was terrified.

topper ran over and grabbed rafe off of the guy, "what the hell are you doing?"

i starred at rafe shaking my head in disappointment then left. i got home and tried to think what triggered him to do that. everything had happened so fast that i had to try putting the whole story together for it to make sense. he seemed jealous but there was no way he could be. rafe hooked up with multiple girls every weekend and hasn't had a relationship since eight grade, which lasted two weeks.

rafe sent me a text message, "y/n we need to talk"

"no rafe" i responded

"i'm already outside.." i got up and looked out my window to see rafe with a bouquet of roses in his hand and small smile that asked, "forgive me?"

i walked downstairs and crossed my arms, "why did you do that? it was completely unnecessary"

"because i didn't like what he was doing"

i threw my hands up, "why does it matter if a guy stares at me? why?"

he stepped closer and our faces were only inches apart, "because every time i look at you, i start to fall more in love with you more every second"

"what" i faintly said.

both of us pulled each other into a kiss and those feelings i had for him that were buried deep down, started to come back. we pulled away and he ran his thumb over my lip. but suddenly, i wanted more. so i grabbed his face and connected our lips once again.

he grabbed my hand, "let's go to your room"

i wrapped my legs around his waist and took off my t-shirt. slowly, all of our clothes came off and we were wrestling around the bed like we had been waiting for this to happen for years, and that was actually the truth, we secretly had been waiting for this to happen.

we both laid on our backs with my blanket covering us, "wow"

"yeah, wow" i responded, heavily breathing while gasping for air.
