The morning light beams through Rafe's sheer curtains forcing me to wake up. Rafe still has his arm around me and our legs are entangled. He's still sleeping. I watch him breathe in and out peacefully.
"Like what you see?" He teases with his husky morning voice. Realising I've been caught staring, I lay back down with my head on his chest.
"I want to stay here forever." I tell him quietly, running my fingers across his chest.
He tightens his arms around me. "Me too Ness." Giving me one last squeeze he sits up. "But I did promise Topper I'd go to golf with him today."
I groan reluctantly pulling him back down to lay with me, he chuckles. "Please don't leave me."
He cups my face with his hand stroking the pad of his thumb gently across my cheek as he stares down at me intently.
"You're so beautiful." I blush under his stare.
"And you're hot." I poke him playfully. He smirks at my compliment.
"Why don't you come with us? Or see what Sarah's doing, I'll be back soon." He kisses my forehead before getting up and disappearing into the bathroom switching on the shower.
"Yeah I'll see what Sarah's doing." I tell him unsure if he's heard me as I hear him step into the shower. I quickly throw on last nights outfit and grab my phone off Rafe's nightstand.
Me:
What you doing today?
Sarah:
Didn't have plans, Topper is leaving me to go golf then I think I'm meeting him at country club afterwards
Me:
Wanna hang?
Sarah:
Sure I'm at mine
Me:
Where's topper?
Sarah:
He's at yours getting ready? Is he not there?
Me:
Actually, I'm at yours...
Sarah:
NO FUCKING WAY!!! COME TO MY ROOM RIGHT NOW!
I giggle to myself at my best friends reaction feeling excited to tell her about the events of last night as much as it may gross her out hearing about her brothers sex life.
I stroll into Rafe's bathroom and he's washing his hair under the shower. He notices me and grins. "Wanna get in?" I almost forget to answer him as I get distracted admiring his body.
"Actually I'm gonna go to Sarah's room." He frowns at my response. "But I think we're gonna meet you and my brother at the country club later." He seems happier when I tell him that.
He leans down and I immediately lean up to kiss him. "See you later baby." He says as I walk out the bathroom.
"See you soon." I tell him as I close his bedroom door behind me.
I wrap my fist once against my best friends door before letting myself in. A very lively Sarah is sat arms folded with the largest smirk plastered across her face as she watches my every move towards her bed.
"Sooo... anything you wanna tell me?" She digs.
I can't stop the grin that creeps onto my face at her words. "Me and Rafe may or may not have hooked up last night."
"Oh my god! Finally, You've both stopped lying to yourselves!" She claps her hands together excitedly.
My mind immediately runs to my brother and what he will say or do if he found out. "Sarah, you cannot tell anyone! If Topper found out he'd flip his lid!"
She charades zipping her mouth shut, throwing away the key and pinky swearing me. She immediately opens her mouth afterwards but I trust her. "I'd ask for details but it's my brother so I don't think I wanna know." A toothy grin still apparent on her face, she scrunches her nose most likely at a disturbing image of me and Rafe in her mind.
"Did you want to meet Rafe and Topper after they've finished at golf? I can't meet up with them alone, Topper would think it's weird." I ask getting myself comfy with my head on her mountain of pillows. Sarah could never sleep with just the one or two, she had to have atleast 4 to feel satisfied before going to sleep.
Her hands clasp together and she pulls them to her chest as she looks at me with the face of 'awe'. "You're so smitten!" She teases. "Yeah I'll message Topper and let him know we will meet them afterwards." She starts tapping away on her phone but dramatically stops her jaw reaching the floor, she looks up at me with wide eyes.
"What?" My eyes mirror hers as I start to panic over the reasoning for her sudden expression.
"Midsummers is next week, are you going with Rafe?" She squeals excitedly.
I'd not even given midsummers a second thought, it hadn't crossed my mind once this summer. Was that because I had no one to go with. Growing up, I usually went with Sarah and Kie, but after Sarah and my brother started dating and kie and Sarah fell out it resorted to being just me and Kie. I just assumed it wouldn't have changed. Thinking about it now, I don't think it will change. I don't know how Rafe feels about me, we slept together once last night it doesn't mean he wants to start calling me his girlfriend. Besides, there was no way Topper would approve. So, anything that happened with me and Rafe had to remain under the radar for both of our sakes. Even though Rafe could definitely take my brother in a fight, I just couldn't be doing with the arguing.
"I haven't thought about it yet but there's no way me and Rafe could ever go together and who's to say he would ever want to."
"Are you kidding? The guy is obsessed with you, the only thing standing in your way is your brother."
"And the fact that I don't even know what Rafe wants with me. It might have just been a one time thing. Or he might just want friends with benefits. I can't see him wanting anything serious."
"Why don't you ask him? Want me to ask him?"
"No!" I answer too quickly. "But if he mentions me at all please tell me. I hate being in the dark and not knowing."
"Stop being scared and just ask him V! You don't know if you don't ask."
I nod agreeing with her statement. "Let's just see how today goes first when we meet up with them. I think how he acts today will tell me all I need to know."
"Want me to try and distract Topper as much as I can?" She winks jokingly.
I grin at my best friend. "Did you already know I was gonna ask you that?"
