CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Rafe

Three Days Later

Alana promised to take care of me through this. But when I woke up from another nap she was gone. Only a note on my nightstand where she told me there was an emergency and she had to leave but she'd see me tonight at Midsummers, Sarah had invited her and Rose had even picked up a dress for her to wear.

I almost feel betrayed that she's left me here to fend for myself. I mean, yeah I'm starting to feel a lot better but it would have been nice to wake up and see her sitting there reading another one of her damn books and looking at me.

Dad comes into my room with a garment bag and hangs it on the back of my door. He looks at me and I ran my hand through my hair. A now foreign feeling since Alana has been doing it for days now.

"You should start getting ready." Ward says dryly. "Then family meeting."

"About?"

"If I tell you then there's no point in having a family meeting. Clear yourself up, get ready for tonight, and then come downstairs to the dining room."

He slams my door shut and I shudder for a moment. Checking my phone to see if I have any texts... Nothing. That's when I realize I don't have Alana's number which means she doesn't even have mine.

That explains the hand written note that she left me.

I jump in the shower real quick and wash away the last bit of sweat and brush away the last of the vomit from my mouth. It's been days and the only drug I've had the pleasure of using is Alana and that's barely anything since I've only been smelling that citrus scent of hers. It's intoxicating enough where even though my body was shaking and in need of a high that the moment I took a deep breath in I was at ease.

After my shower I head down to the dining room wearing just some shorts and a plain white tee, Rose is sitting at the table next to my Dad, holding his hand and forcing a smile at me through her ruby red lipstick that always stains at least one of her teeth. But since Sarah, Wheezie, and I can't stand her we don't even bother to tell her.

Wheezie is sat next to Sarah so I plop myself down across from them, closer to the side where Dad is and he flickers his eyes at me. Looking me up and down probably to see if I'm sober. Unfortunately I am in all senses.

Haven't had sex in months, haven't had alcohol or drugs in about a week or so and since I've woken up I haven't had the joy of breathing in Alana's lotions and perfumes that she drowns herself in.

"Rose and I have something important we want to talk to you all about." Dad starts and Rose grips his hand harder.

Sarah gasps and makes a disgusted face. "Oh my- Rose are you pregnant?!"

My Dad and Rose both shudder in disgusted. "Oh fuck no! No one in this house is pregnant. No one in this house is having a baby for a long, long time." Dad says as he feigns offence to the accusation that he would ever put a child in Rose.

"If I was pregnant I'd be sobbing." Rose mutters. "And not from joy."

"If anyone here was having a baby this conversation wouldn't be as happy as it's about to be. Well, happy for Sarah and Wheezie. Possibly going to be the worst news of Rafe's life." Dad adds.

"We're getting a puppy?" Wheezie questions excitedly. "I really have wanted a puppy. Anything would make me happy, a Doberman, a Huskey, Golden Retriever! Oh! A Labradoodle! Even a Goldendoodle-"
