It had been a couple of days since I was told the truth about myself. If I was being honest, I hated being home. It felt like my entire childhood was stripped away from me and all I had left was empty, useless memories. I still loved my mother, she took me in after all. But I also couldn't help but resent her for keeping this from me for so long. Jeremy and I agreed it would be best if I lived with my father. My mother wasn't going to be around forever, and when she would be close to leaving, I'd say bye. It stung having such a loose relationship with her. She loved me, but it always felt like she couldn't wait till the day I left. Of course she didn't like the idea of me going to visit my father, but where else would I have gone. I still need to go back to Outer Banks to get answers. 

A few days later, we left to the airport.

"Will you be okay?" Jeremy hugged me.

"Yeah. I never thanked you for telling me. So, thank you." I hugged back. 

"There's always room for you back home." He pulled away and smiled at me. "I'm proud of you y/n, I really am." 

I smiled back and shed a tear. "I'll visit soon, I love you." 

"I love you too."

I left to the gate and boarded the plane. I honestly couldn't wait to get back to Outer Banks. 

-----------------

I landed at sunset again, and just like the first time, I was amazed with beauty. When I exited the plane, I expected to see my dad, or Sarah at least. But there stood Rafe. He smiled to me and I walked over to him.

"What- what are you doing here?" I stuttered.

"Well your dad figured you wouldn't want to see him just yet, and Sarah's on a girl trip with my mom and sister. So I offered to pick you up." He explained.

"Well I appreciate that." I stood nervously. The last time I saw him, I was crying my eyes out as he held me. It was the heat of the moment, otherwise I think I would've confided in someone else.

"Should we go?" He asked. I nodded and followed him out the airport. We drove for a while and he pulled into an empty parking lot.

"What are we doing here?" I asked.

"I just want to apologize to you." He softly spoke.

"Apologize to me for what?" 

"Everything. Beating up your friends, pushing you away, kissing you. It wasn't fair to you, and I'm sorry."

I stayed silent for while. It was a lot to think about. "Why are you apologizing to me now?" I spoke up.

"I-" He hesitated. "I'm just trying to be a better person you know." I could tell he wanted to say more, but he held his tongue. "And I brought you here also because the sunset view is beautiful here." He smiled and pointed out the windshield. 

I noticed it driving up here, but the view truly was amazing. We sat there until the sun wasn't visible anymore. We didn't say a word to each other the whole time, but this moment meant a lot anyways. I just hope it won't push my feelings any further than they already are. 

We drove back to my house and I hesitated getting out. I hadn't planned out how I was gonna confront my dad.

"Are you okay?" Rafe spoke up.

"Do you mind if I stay at your place tonight?" I impulsively asked.

"Sure, but it'll just be me at the house. My dad is away with some friends."

"Yeah okay, that's fine."
