"Topper, no." You put your hand on the bridge of your nose, disappointed and annoyed. Ever since you've told Topper that you liked Rafe, he's been nagging him about asking him out.
Topper rolled his eyes. "Then how else are you going tell him you like him?"
"I'm not telling him until I know for a fact he likes me back, I'm not embarrassing myself." You stated matter-of-factly, making Topper groan and lay back on the couch, his arms crossed.
"You're a pussy, that's why." Topper mumbled making you whip your head towards him, angry.
"Oh shut the hell up, it took you how many months again, before asking Sarah out?-"
"That's different, okay, she had a boyfriend and I'm not a homewrecker." Topper countered making you cross your arms and move your gaze to the TV.
Topper was very persistent on helping you get with Rafe. No matter how many times you've told him that you were just waiting on the right time to tell him, he'd pass it off as you being a coward. It was getting pretty exhausting, Topper's nagginess was really starting to annoy you.
You and Rafe were friends, that's all it was at the moment. He's never shown interest in you and it would be really awkward if you told him you liked him, then he rejected you. You would never be able to face him again.

Rafe and Topper were at the Club, getting lunch before Topper was supposed to go shopping with his mom for your birthday present. They were sitting at their usual table, ordering drinks. You were turning the big 1-8 this week and Rafe wanted to get you something special.
He'd usually get you some jewelry or a gift card but that didn't feel right. "What should I get her?"
Topper rolled his eyes, this was the fifth time he'd asked today. He took a drink of his cocktail before quickly answering: "I don't know, you should ask her."
"Dude." Rafe scoffed, "that wouldn't be special if I just asked her. It has to be a surprise."
"Why do you care so much?"
That question had caught Rafe off guard. Why did he care so much? He wasn't obligated to get you a present, especially a special one.
Topper knew instantly why he cared. A smirk rose from his lips as he sighed contently. "You like her."
"What? No, I don't." Rafe countered as he furrowed his eyebrows in thought. Did he? Topper stared blankly at Rafe. "I mean, she's nice. And cute. But she's your sister so that would be really weird. But I mean you are dating Sarah... Not that I would want to date Y/N, but-"
"You like her. You like Y/N."
Rafe was quiet for a second as Topper smirked, taking a sip of his drink happily. Did Rafe like Y/N?
She did make him feel all giddy and nervous at times, but he'd known her his entire life essentially. He remembers having a tiny crush on her in middle school and he wanted to her ask to Homecoming Sophomore year but those times were different. They were both basically adults now.
Rafe was just confused. He didn't know why Topper had to blurt that out right now but now Rafe couldn't even think straight.
He was pulled out of his thoughts once he heard Topper's phone ring. "I gotta go, my mom's here. Don't forget, you're hanging out at our house until I get back."
Oh shit. He forgot he said he was going to stay at the Thornton's until he came back from the mall. His face flushed as he looked at his phone, trying to play nonchalant. "Okay, uh. Tell me what you get her."
