They arrive at Popes grandmas nursing home and all get out the Twinkie and Pope looks at Kie, "I think I could do this by myself, you know. I don't really need you." Pope says looking at Kie, "Were just one big happy family this week aren't we." JJ says in a sarcastic tone. "We will pick you up in a bit." JohnB says getting back in the car.

They stopped in the middle of the cut where most stores were, Lily gets off first then the other two girls, "Lily, can we talk." Kie asks, "About what."

"You know about what." She responds, they walk in and get drinks then sit outside. "You know I didn't mean it that way, right?" Kie adds, "How else did you mean it?" Lily asks looking at the girl. "I know his past Lily, trust me. If you really think you like him. Then i'm happy for you."

"I'm just trying to warn you." Kie continues taking a big breath, "I do like him, I just don't need yall constantly rubbing it in my face that you see the worst in him that I don't."

"I'm sorry, are we good?" The brown haired girl asks and Lily nods. "Me to, I shouldn't have budged in but I did. I'm sorry." Sarah speaks up, "It's good."

"It's just JJ keep instigating about it, and I want to see Rafe one last time tonight. That's if the cops don't find him." Lily says getting up, "We will help you, okay?" Kie says giving a soft smile.

They walk back to the Twinkie and drive back to Pope, the whole car ride was silent but the only person who was making noise was Lily. She kept clearing her throat on purpose to make them all feel awkward. They arrive and Pope slides the door open then closes it. He takes a deep breath, "Shit just got way more personal." he says and they all look at each other confused.

They get back to the Chateau and the girls talk inside the Twinkie after the boys get out. "Okay so, we will tell them that we're going for a walk to clear our heads. Me and Sarah will go to the store while you go meet Rafe. Then come back." Kie says nodding. "Perfect." Lily smiles.

They get out and walk up to the three boys, "We're going for a walk." Sarah says pulling her hair back, "What for?" Pope asks, "We need to clear our heads." Lily speaks up. They then walk off and Sarah and Kie go one direction while Lily goes in another.

She texts Rafe and minutes later as she arrives at Barry's house, she opens the door and immediately sees Ward. "What is she doing here?" Ward says looking at Rafe. "I need a moment with him." She says glaring at Barry and Ward. "Oh right. What was I thinking. Shit, it's my house. Yall take as many minutes as yall need." the brown haired boy says walking out in a sarcastic voice. "You to." Lily says looking at the man.

"I'll give yall five minutes." he says before walking out right behind Barry. Rafe clenches his jaw but doesn't look at her once. "Rafe, i've been thinking. I want something serious with you. I'll do anything for you." she says sitting down right beside him.

He looks at her and stares into her eyes but looks away again not saying anything. "Please, just talk to me." she says, "If you would do anything for me, you would tell them I didn't do it." he says looking down.

"I didn't file a statement on you, I haven't even said a word. But it's still getting bad out there." she says grabbing his face for him to look at her. "I want something with you, and only you. Everything is going to be fine Rafe, you have to trust me." she reassures him, he takes a long pause before speaking up, "Will you be my girlfriend." he asks and she smiles and nods.
