The next morning, Raven heard rustling in her room, causing her eyes to open. She saw Sarah trying to not make any sound while looking through her makeup, and Raven let out a small laugh.

"I need that one lipstick you wear constantly," Sarah whispered, laughing.

"It's in my makeup bag," Raven whispered.

Sarah noticed Rafe wrapped around Raven and she smirked, causing Raven to flip her off.

"Don't let Dad see, that's all I have to say, he'd lose his shit I was thinking about it last night," Sarah gave a sympathetic smile.

Raven didn't even think about that, and her heart sank. She hated whenever Ward yelled at Rafe for doing nothing wrong, but if Raven was the reason Rafe would get into it with Ward, it would kill her. Sarah found the lipstick and left the room quietly, Raven looking up at the ceiling.

"What's wrong?" Rafe murmured again her skin.

"Nothing, go back to sleep," She whispered, starting to play with his hair.

"Your breathing changed," His words tickled her skin because his face was pressed against her upper torso.

"I'm okay, I promise," She reassured him, and he fell right back asleep.

She fell back asleep too, the comfort of Rafe's body heat causing her to get tired. She woke up again with a loud bang, sounding like a gunshot right outside the house.

"What the fuck was that," Rafe jolted awake and Raven looked at him, fear in her eyes.

"I don't, I don't know," She wouldn't take her eyes off of him, searching for some kind of way to not be worried.

"I'll be right back, stay. Here," He got up out of bed and walked down the stairs.

"Fuck you, no," She got up out of bed and followed him.

"I told you to fucking stay in your room," He whisper yelled at her, walking down the stairs.

"I don't fucking listen well," Raven replied in a whisper.

"COUNTRY CLUB GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE," A muffled yell sounded.

"Fuck," Rafe groaned, "Raven, stay inside, I fucking mean it."

She stood on the stairs and watched him walk outside. Barry gave Rafe a malicious smirk, causing Rafe to glare at him.

"You owe me five thousand dollars country club, where is it?" Barry poked Rafe's chest.

"I'll get it to you, just give me a little more time," Rafe spoke with anger.

"Give me fucking collateral then," Barry spoke, then his eyes glanced to the doorway, where Raven was standing, "Give me her."

"FUCK no," Rafe looked between Raven and Barry.

"Why not country club, she ain't your girl," He started walking over to Raven.

"Don't touch me," Raven took a step back and Barry laughed.

"You weren't opposed to me at the party, princess, what changed?" Barry looked at her,

"Get the fuck away from my girl, Barry," Rafe's gaze burned into the back of Barry's head.

"Oh really? Your girl? Makes me REALLY wanna take her now, get my money from, you faster," Barry spat, and Raven looked at Rafe in fear.

"I will fucking kill you if you touch her, I'm fucking serious," Rafe started to walk towards Barry, anger fuming in his eyes.

"No the fuck you wouldn't," Barry laughed, causing Rafe to grab Barry's face, upper-cutting him.

Rafe punched again right between Barry's eyes, causing Barry to fall to the ground. Raven watched this happen, fear causing her to slightly shake.

"Take the bike, it was more than 5,000, you come on my fucking property again, I swear to FUCKING god, I will fucking kill you," Rafe threw the keys to his motorcycle to Barry, leaving him on the ground.

Rafe turned Raven into the house and she walked slowly back into the house.

"I'm sorry that happened, I'm sorry you had to witness it, I'm sorry he even fucking looked at you," He looked into her eyes and she just hugged him. She buried her face with his bare chest and his arms wrapped around her, "I'm sorry."

"Thank you," She whispered, her breath shaky.

"I won't let a soul hurt you, Raven," He put his chin on the top of her head, giving her a tighter hug.

"Where's your dad?" Raven asked, realizing she hadn't heard him.

"I actually don't know," Rafe looked around the living room, Raven still in his arms.

"Odd," Raven broke from the hug and walked up the stairs, "You gonna come lay back down with me or not?"

"In a little bit, if you're still down," He took out his phone, making a phone call, "Where the fuck are you?"

Raven inhaled deeply and walked up and into Sarah's room.

"Sarah, he called me his girl," Raven spoke, not even saying hello, causing Sarah to whip her head up from her phone.

"YOU'RE KIDDING?" She gasped, a big smile forming.

"I don't know if it was an in-the-moment thing because he just wanted Barry to leave me alone," Raven started but Sarah interrupted.

"Who is Barry?"

"Not important," Raven waved her hand, continuing, "But Rafe called me his girl."

"He doesn't just go around saying that, Raven, we BOTH know that," Sarah grinned.

"I know," Raven grinned, but then let it fall, "I don't know if he meant it though, like I said, could've been a spur-of-the-moment thing, I don't know."

"Ask him about it," Sarah shrugged.

"I will, later, maybe, I don't know," Raven smiled.

"OH! Before I forget, here, have it back," Sarah got up and handed Raven her lipstick back.

"Why'd you need it?"

"Kayla wanted to know what it was because she thought it looked really nice on you, so I went and looked," Sarah smiled.

"Ohh, that's what those texts were this morning, yeah I ignored those," Raven laughed, calling Sarah to laugh.

"You're just as bad as Rafe, you two really are perfect for each other," She laughed, causing Raven to laugh harder.

"Maybe, if I get a solid answer from him about why he said what I said, I can retell you about him and me," Raven smiled, causing Sarah to grin.

"I'm an amazing actress so, I can give my reaction again, don't you worry," She smiled.

"Thank you," Raven hugged her and got up, "I'm going to go take a nap," She opened the door stepping out.

"Sweet dreams, so am I," Sarah laughed.

"You girls sleep so much-" Rose let out a laugh and kept walking down the hall, going to the next flight of stairs.

Raven walked back into her room, putting her lipstick back in her makeup bag, then laying in bed again.

"You asleep?" Rafe opened her door slightly.

"No, I'm dead," She replied, crossing her arms over her chest, and sticking out her tongue.

"Well shit," Rafe let out a quiet laugh, walking over to her bed, laying down.

"Do you never wear shirts?" Raven asked with a laugh.

"Why would I wear a shirt if I'm not leaving the house?" He wrapped Raven in his arms.

"I don't know," She tangled their legs together, smiling to herself.
