Difference or Love

Chapter 20

Rafe stares back at y/n and she can tell that he is seething with anger. She can feel the tension in the air as he points the gun at her and she is starting to wonder if her words have escalated the situation beyond repair and if her life is in danger. She looks up at Rafe, her eyes filled with fear and concern, but she also has a determined look on her face. She isn't going to back down and she is ready to face Rafe even if it means losing her life.

"I wish I never patched you up the day you fought with Nick at the beach."

Rafe's face shows a flicker of recognition as he hears y/n's words and she brings up the past. It is true that y/n patched Rafe up after he got hurt fighting with Nick. And it is also true that this act of kindness and care is one of the things that started them down the path of falling in love with each other. Rafe looks angry, but he is clearly struck by y/n's words. She has cut deep and she has hit him where it hurts, calling into question their entire relationship.

"I wish I never kissed you that day either or the days after."

Rafe is surprised and thrown off slightly by y/n's words. He hadn't been expecting her to bring up all of their romantic moments together, and it is hitting him hard. He is still angry, but for a moment he is also caught off guard as y/n reminds him of their past relationship and the feelings that they had for each other. As he stares down the barrel of his gun at her, he is filled with a mix of emotions and confusion.

"You really are just like what Pogues say about you.... You're nothing but a stuck up rich kook."

Rafe's face hardens again. Y/n has hit a nerve with him, and he doesn't like hearing her say those things about him. He still has the gun held at her, and he looks angry and pissed off. He takes a step forward, getting closer to her. "Watch who you're talking to, Pogue slut," he says to her, his voice full of hatred and contempt.

"Me and you both know I'm no slut, the only person I slept with was you asshole... I regret giving you my first." Y/n is glaring up at him past the gun pointed at her forehead.

Rafe is angered and shamed by y/n's words. He doesn't like hearing the things that she is saying about their relationship, and he doesn't like to be reminded of his past with her. He doesn't respond to her, but his face is filled with anger and resentment. As he stares at y/n, his finger slowly starts to inch closer and closer to the trigger of the gun, and she can tell that he is about to pull the trigger on her.

"When you kill me I won't even haunt your ass.. I don't want to see your face again."

Y/n's words hit a nerve with Rafe, and he doesn't like to think about the possibility of her dying or of him killing her. He is filled with conflicting emotions as he holds the gun at her, and his finger is on the trigger and he is about to pull it. She can tell that he is hesitant to do it, but at the same time she knows that he is angry and it is unclear if he will go through with his threat to shoot her. She is scared as his finger slowly pulls the trigger...
