Rafe and I talk for a few hours, watch tv, and play some board games while the cake bakes in the oven.

I roll the dice, "Ha! Six!" I move my player on the board, when I reach a snake and move down a floor. "That's too bad, baby." Rafe says, teasing me.

I laugh and shove him, "Your turn." He rolls the dice and ends up landing on a ladder, making his player move all the way up to a hundred.

I sit there with my jaw practically on the floor as he laughs. "It looks like I won!" Rafe says, poking me playfully. "Cheater!" I say, laughing at him.

He puts his hand on his chest and acts all offended. "Me?! Cheat?! Of course not!" He scoffs.

"Shut up.." I say, giggling.

"Make me." Rafe jokes, pressing ball the right buttons.

It's crazy how he knows exactly what pisses me off.——————————————————————————
"I will." I smile, biting my lip. I lean forward, kissing him on the lips. He grins against my lips, putting his hand on my cheek.

The kiss lasts for a while but eventually I pull away, smiling.

I hear my alarm go off, which means the cake is ready. "It's ready!" I say, getting up from the floor.

I take the cake out of the oven and we decorate it. "White icing!" I say, squirting out the tube onto the top of the cake.

We decorate the cake with blue and white sprinkles and finally, it's time to try it. I cut off a slice for me and Rafe and we take a bite, chewing slowly to savour the flavour longer.

"It's good!" I say, putting my fork down. "I agree." Rafe says, swiping away a bit of white frosting from my chin with his thumb.

I have never baked a cake before, I'm surprised that I did quite well for my first time.——————————————————————————
We finish our slices and decide to just relax in my room.

I fall down on my bed and groan. "What's the matter, baby?" Rafe asks, sitting down beside me. "I'm just bored." I say, sitting back up to look at him.

"Bored? We have that beach sleepover today." Rafe reminds.

My eyes widen and as I remember the plans that had been made. "Shit! I completely forgot! What time is it?" I ask him, getting up from the bed.

"4:30." He responds.

I take a quick shower and then put on my white bikini while Rafe changes. I throw on my beach coverup up and a spare change of clothes.

I grab my beach bag and pack the clothes, sunscreen, a claw clip, a towel, and some snacks.

I'm ready! ——————————————————————————
I glance at Rafe. "We have to stop at my house so I can grab my stuff." He says, fixing his hair.

"Alright, let's go!" I say, opening my bedroom door for him.

We rush downstairs and I catch a glimpse of my parents in the kitchen. "Where are you off to now?" My dad asks us, turning around in his chair.

"Beach sleepover." I tell him, putting on my sandals.

"Alright, no alcohol." He specifies, seriously. "I know!" I say, closing the front door as Rafe heads to my car.

We drive to Tannyhill and I wait inside while Rafe gets ready. "Hey, Mads!" Sarah's voice calls out.

"Hey, Sar! I'm just waiting for Rafe to get changed and then we can head out!" I tell her, clutching my beach bag.
