A/N.: Dear new readers. If you didn't read the warnings, go read them. It takes 2 min. I don't want to deal with your complaining in the comments, so pls keep my need to delete the comments to a minimum and see if this story is for you.
You intrigue him. You intrigue him to the point of driving Rafe to insanity. He has had his eyes on you for some time, and you are, absolutely, everything he has ever wanted to have.
You are gentle, nice, sincere, and even a little shy. You are a good student, a good friend, and a good person overall. Rafe is nothing of what he just described. He is not nice to people, probably even to his own friends. He doesn't see any pleasure in helping other people and he doesn't see the deal with studying. He has never worked hard for almost anything in his life, because he always had a way to get to where he wanted to be, no matter what. And that is why you are always in his mind.
You started tutoring his youngest sister almost a year and a half ago. His dad, his sister, and his step-mom absolutely love you. Wheezie's grades have never been so high, and, even, Wheezie herself has never been so excited about school. You are, many times, invited to stay over for dinner - to which you always do that adorable expression before saying something along the lines of "you are too kind".
Rafe has forced himself to control his staring and his somewhat obsession over you. Over dinner, he only looks at you sometimes. He doesn't come into Wheezie's room when you're there, even if he needs something from his sister. And he has never, ever, spoken a word to you.
The only reason why he has never said anything is that he has never really had many chances. Someone is always near you. In his house, there's always one of his family members. And outside of the house, you always have a friend nearby. Rafe doesn't have a good reputation. Your friends would come running to your rescue if they ever saw you talking to him.
He's not good news, and never will be.
And even when the reality is told this way, you also can't help but feel something towards Rafe too. Everyone knows he's bad news. Before even taking the job as a tutor, all of your friends told you to refuse to work under the same roof Rafe Cameron lives. Same thing with your parents.
You have heard all of the rumors around the island about Rafe's activities. He fights a lot, sometimes with random people for no reason. Most of those fights are provoked by him too. He does drugs, specifically cocaine, and occasionally smokes weed. Both of which he has never bothered to hide from the public, as he supposedly does them at parties. He drinks too much at those same parties. You have heard some of his arguments with his father, on accident, and some of his with Sarah.
He is not a good person, and he has never said anything close to a word to you. You've never even heard him talk about you to someone else, either in a good or bad light. Not like how you've heard him speak of other people. Yet, still, something makes your heart speed up, and your insides awaken with some sort of flame every time you see him.
The closest thing you two have to an actual interaction is what happens almost every single day that you tutor. It doesn't have any words, or anything close to that.
The door to Wheezie's room is always left slightly open when you two are studying. It's very rare for you to close it. Unless Sarah has her friends over, and you prefer Wheezie to have some silence when she's preparing for an important test. Rafe's room is just down the wall. This means that he has to cross the hallway to get to his room, therefore, walking right past the door.
Every time he walks in front of it, you look up and your eyes meet right away. The first time it happened, it was extremely scary for you. You had never met Rafe, it was just your 3rd time tutoring Wheezie, and all you knew about her brother is the stories everyone tells. When he looked at you through that space between the doorway and door, you felt your heart fall to your feet. You were terrified.
