An hour before your parent's event, your brother was nowhere to be seen. It was the most significant advancement for their company to expand and aggrandize. More or less, Rose asked you to find Rafe, and knowing he was with your brother, you ran in your ruby-red Christian Louboutins if running was concluded to waddling in the Country Club, all eyes, failing to look at their girlfriends and to you instead. Most girls give you dirty looks, their eyes falling on your body. Having everyone stare at you was never intentional, but you also never noticed.
There they sat in casual clothes, talking with each other. "Nathan, our parents need us to be there. Where is your suit?" You knitted your brows together. "We're living precariously," Nathan said with a lively tone as Rafe snorted, receiving amused looks from both of them. You sigh at the childish behavior. You shift on your heels, becoming uncomfortable in the sun's warmth, illuminating the highlighter and Chanel red lipstick. You bite your lower lip, looking at Rafe, who has barely said a word to you as usual.
Anytime you were around, he'd get quiet, unwilling to look at you. "We'll go." Rafe glanced at Nathan, who stood up, leaving you behind to catch up. You were practically just the younger sister in every situation because, as people said, you were entirely sweet and innocent though it was true.
You couldn't help but let your eyes wander to the man before you, watching his tanned arms flex almost too perfectly in the grey and black shirt, showing off every vein in his forearm while he adjusted his grey backward hat. You saw Rafe every day. Whether it was at your house or his or during your morning jog, he was always in your line of sight.
You once asked your parents what they thought about the Cameron boy, and they worded their sentence, carefully trying not to bash him as your parents were good friends of Rose and Ward Cameron, but to say the least, they are not fond of him and wished your brother wouldn't hang around with such bad influence as Rafe Cameron, so why would you want a man like him? A man who would only break your pure heart.
We arrived at the house, but you had to get going quickly. You couldn't help but feel deep sadness as you walked out the door. Did Rafe hate you? You called Kiara to pick you up, hoping she would advise you. You barely had any boy experience, and it shames you because you're nineteen and dated only one guy just for him to drop you for another girl, but he quickly got put in his place by your brother and Rafe...
"Doesn't even GLANCE AT YOU! You're drop-dead gorgeous. Who couldn't like you? But, wait, who is he?" Kiara's jaw dropped, and she gestured her hands all over.
You smile at Kie's reaction but tauten as you've been edging around Rafe's name. Kiara would freak out if she knew it was Rafe, you fancy. "I don't- remember his name." You rub your neck nervously, stuttering over words. "What?" Her lip arches in confusion as she parks her car, and we get out. You avoid the comment. "Ok... Since you don't want to reveal the mystery man, I must find my parents." She pulls you in for a short-lived hug and disappears into the crowd, leaving you alone.
You go to the front, lifting the red floral summer dress in hopes you won't fall as your parents start their speech, causing everyone to go quiet. They talk about how grateful and happy they are to make it where they are, but a fragrance envelops you, cedar and Caledonian sandalwood, and to your knowledge of cologne, it's from Chanel, and the scent entices you to turn your head only to be met by a pristine Rafe. His towering body glances down at you, feeling flustered. You avert your eyes back at your overjoyed parents.
Once they announce who they're partnering with, the mass breaks out into a cheer, and you clap, smiling, proud of your parents, and everyone begins to split into groups again. Your bones feel strained, and butterflies appear in your stomach, only for you to stumble backwards, landing in Rafe's arms, then moving to hold your waist. "I'm so sorry- I've been really uncoordinated today." You give him a thin smile, but the smile fades, deterring you from thinking optimistically about his reaction and the atmosphere surrounding you and Rafe. It wasn't anger or enmity, but it felt tense and something else you couldn't place as he leaned down to your ear, his breath light. "I'm going to ruin you, pretty girl." Your body stiffens as he places a feathery kiss on your red lips, yet a bright red stain marks his. Rafe smirks at your cherry face, but his blue eyes are a dark sea, and his jaw sharpens.
