Rafe and I we're barely getting ready to leave the catamaran. We spent most of the afternoon hanging out and drinking with Barry but few minutes ago he left to go take care of business.
Rafe had been on a phone call talking about the cross that had been melted and what him and Barry had planned to do with it. Finally he hung up.
I knew I needed to tell him that JJ knew but part of me was terrified because I knew what Rafe was capable of."Hey Rafe..I have to tell you something. Just promise not to get mad."
He glared and laughed. "What are you pregnant again?"
I starred at him blankly. I never understood how he could be so cold after being sweet to me all day. "No. You know what nevermind. Could you drop me off at my brothers tonight? I-I need to talk to him."
Rafe picked up a bottle and held it in his hand. "Are you up to something? You know, I don't know if you think I'm stupid or something, but you've been over there a lot recently."
"Maybe because I just found out my dads alive. Ya know, after thinking that your dad had murdered him I think I deserve to get to know him again." I rolled my eyes.
Rafe took a swig of the small amount of alcohol left in the tall bottle. "Always blaming the family who took your ass in when you weren't welcomed into yours. Do you actually believe your dad is gonna love you once you tell him you're with me? You're fucking the son of his business partner who left him at sea to die. You think he's gonna love you after that?"
I was taken back at his words. I knew he was just drunk but they always say drunk words are sober thoughts.
I felt myself getting worked up. I never took what Rafe said to heart because at the end of the day we loved each other no matter how toxic we were. Something inside of me just didn't care anymore. I had to let it out.
"JJ knows about the gold."
"What?" Rafe turned around.
"JJ. Knows. About. The. Gold." I gulped and starred at his dark eyes.
"The fuck do you mean Josie?" Rafe's eyes squinted and his body language changed.
"I mean he knows you and Barry melted the cross. I didn't fall into the marina Rafe, I've basically grown up in the water, I know when and where to get out. JJ and I were at the office and heard you guys talking. He knows you melted the gold." I explained hoping it would maybe relieve some anger.
Rafe's anger took over him. The bottle he held in his hand moments ago was smashed into a thousand pieces on the ground. "You fucking bitch! You're a liar! I gave you everything and that's how you treat me? Get off of my fucking boat. Now." Rafe Demanded.
"Rafe you know I-." I tried to argue.
"NOW." He yelled.
I starred at him as I walked past him. I felt the tears fall. I hated arguing with him. It tore me apart even though it was normal for us, it still stung.
I walked to the only place I knew I was welcomed right now. The chateau.
I softly smiled as I saw my two favorite boys sitting beside each other on the porch. I wasn't sure if JJ had my back or not and kept the secret or if he told John B already but I risked it anyway.
"Hey, where's dad?" I smiled hoping they wouldn't notice the dried tears on my cheeks.
They starred at me. John B had this disappointed look on his face and JJ scoffed.
"Jo, whats the latest update you have on the cross?" My brother asked.
Shit.
"I...I don't have an update. Rafe recently hasn't let me in on his business ventures. He's been secretive a lot." I glanced at JJ who had this smirk plastered on his face.
