Thirty four

„VAL, COULD YOU GRAB ME A TOWEL?" Rafe yelled out from the bathroom. The sound of the shower running filled my ears as I rushed around the room to see if there was any information about where the cross was headed to.

„Yeah! One sec!" I yelled back. Finally, I found the small piece of paper on top of a desk, Wilmington. I took my phone out and snapped a quick picture of the paper and sent it to Sarah's number. Once I had that under control, I put my phone back in my pocket and reached for the towel that hung on the door.

I walked in the bathroom where Rafe was and placed it on the toilet. „It's on the toilet, I'm going to get dressed." I informed him.

I put on a pair of lightly blue ripped-jean shorts and a white tube top. I put my hair up in a messy bun, unbothered to have it flying in my face all the time. I really needed a hair cut... my hair was almost bellow my ass by now.

Rafe finally got out of the shower with just the towel around his waist. I turned around, allowing my self to get distracted by his sculpted body. A small smirk fell on his face one he noticed my gaze. „You look beautiful, love." He wrapped a arm around me and placed a kiss on my forehead.

„You doing anything today?" I sat on the bed and put on a pair of socks while waiting for his reply.

„Yeah, I need to take care of some business. Don't worry about it though." He sent me a reassuring smile. „I'll probably be back later tonight though, so don't wait to eat with me, just make yourself anything or order some food and I'll just eat later, okay?"

„Yeah, I was actually thinking of going to see if Sarah and the others made it, is that okay?"

„She's my sister but I don't care what she does. She's your friend, I won't be an asshole and ban you from seeing her." He mumbled while gathering his clothes. I hummed and nodded my head before getting up and placing a kiss on his lips. „I love you, be safe."

„Love you too." Rafe smiled.

So somehow, I don't even know how, I was on a board with JJ, Sarah, Pope, Kie and Cleo. It was like we flipped the script and everything was a blur.  „Honestly? The hardest part is gonna be security, all right? So most of the guys are going to be at the rail yard." JJ explained.

„Right so, we'll need to find some place and guard it. Maybe a little further down the line, like a whistle stop or something." Pope spoke up.

„You guys are getting a head of yourselves per usual. We don't have a way to transport the cross. Whatcha think? On JJ's motorcycle?" Cleo eyed us all.

„There's no chance." I sighed.

„That's not my fault." JJ muttered while flicking off the hat on his head.  „Oh, everyone. All right, all me." He chuckled.

„We have like no other options." I said, making sure to stretch out the no. All of us tried our best to think of something until Sarah freaked out. „Oh my god." She slapped her palms together.

„Oh my god what?" Cleo twisted her head. Sarah's eyes darted to her left, as if she was trying to point to something with her eyes. I turned my body around, my eyes immediately widening once they landed on the person who Sarah was talking about.

„Is that topper?" Pope leaned forward.

„Why is he everywhere?" Kie shook her head in annoyance.
