SIXTEEN:
together again.

KALI HAD BEEN locked in a spare room in the cameron mansion. she was lying on the bed facing away from the door sniffling softly. the door was unlatched and kali didn't even flinch. it was rafe, she knew it was. he had been the only one to know she was there. kali just laid there numbly as he sat on the bed.

"my dad wants me to go to the bahamas with him.." rafe speaks and kali doesn't even move. "i asked if you could come with us..he said yes after i told him why." rafe spoke and kali turned to him "you told your dad?" she spoke before sitting up.

rafe nodded and looked her in her eyes "i want to work things out with you kali. i know that i keep fucking everything up, but i meant it when i told you that i loved you. i want to show you that i love you and will be there for our baby." he says and kali looks down at her lap as she plays with her hands.

"i can't trust you anymore rafe." kali says and rafe nods "i know but i want to make you trust me. i want to get better." he says and kali looks at him "why cant you just tell the truth? everything would go back to the way it was if you just tell them what happened." she spoke with a desperate tone.

rafe stood up "i cant kali..ill have wheezie pack you a bag.." he started heading for the door and kali said a bunch of quiet 'no's'. "please don't leave me in here.." she said through the door before hearing the latch click. kali slid down the door and hugged her stomach.

━━━

kali sat in the back seat quietly with an unreadable expression on her face as ward came out of the house, after talking to rose, and got into his car. he looked to kali through the rearview mirror and she had nothing but a stone cold expression on her face.

kali use to look at ward as another father and now she didn't know who the monster driving the car was. how he could cover up someone dying and blame it on john b. that's what made it worse. john b was a good kid, he would never shoot anyone, let alone peterkin who was trying to help him.

that made kali truly scared for her life and her babies. she didn't know what ward would do with the information because she didn't know who he was anymore. kali's thoughts were racing as she dozed off to sleep. when she woke up they were getting off the plane in nassau.

the short car ride to the bahama house was the same as the one to the air strip. ward looked at her through the rearview mirror and she had the same cold expression on her face she's had this whole time.

as the three walked into the house, kali separated from the two of them and sat on the living room couch. the two men talked and kali sat there not listening. she suddenly felt sick and found the nearest bathroom. when kali got to the bathroom she immediately fell to her knees at the toilet and started throwing her guts up.

kalis hair was pulled out of her face by who she knew was rafe. she sat up and brushed his hands away from her before wiping her mouth with the back of her hand "does this happen often?" rafe asks and kali nods "it's called acid reflux..or morning sickness in simpler terms." she said while looking to rafe and he nods. it was obvious on his face that he wanted to ask more questions but he didn't.
