After sitting in the toilet, Kie had come to check on me to make sure I was okay. She helped fix my make up as I cried most of it off. We walked out of the bathroom and I spent the night with her, before I had ended up at the open bar.

I sat on the bar stool twirling the drink around in my hands before taking a sip, wanting the thoughts to just stop for a second. I snapped out of it when I felt a hand on my lower back before a kiss on my neck, seeing it was Rafe.

"Here you are baby." Rafe says and he goes to lean in for a kiss but I turned my head, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine." I said as I knocked back the entire drink in my cup, going to leave but Rafe grabs my hand.

"You don't sound fine. Is everything okay?"

"What happened the night of the OBX summer series?"

"What?" Rafe says taken back furrowing his eyebrows but I pursed my lips looking up at him.

"Did I stutter? I asked you what happened or did you need a minute to come up with another lie?"

"Baby, what are you talking about?"

"And to think, I dropped everything and everyone for you." I said feeling tears in my eyes but I wasn't going to cry in front of him, "What was it you said again? Oh that, I was only good for being on my knees."

"Woah, Leah, hang on a second."

"Is that all I am to you Rafe? A girl you can fuck when you want?"

"I have no idea where the fuck this is coming from?" Rafe says scoffing as he looks at me making me suck in my teeth.

"How many more lies are you going to tell me for me to stay huh? Tell me what was it about Pope that made you want to jump him?"

"Jump him? Is that what he said? And you're going to believe him?" Rafe says sniffling as he rubs his nose dryly chuckling, "Wow."

"No, you do not get to make me feel like I'm crazy. I have done nothing to you, nothing but fucking love you and this is what I get in return. You fucking lying to me, to my fucking face. And for what? What do you gain out of it?"

"I love you Leah. I did this for us."

"I never asked you to fucking beat my friends up. This has nothing to do with me, just you. Just your fucking ego getting in the way."

"I'm sorry okay, please. I'll do whatever you want."

"I want you to tell me the truth. Tell me the truth Rafe." I said looking at him and he doesn't say anything making me shake my head as I looked down at my hand grabbing the ring.

"What are you doing? Leah..." Rafe says, his eyes dropping to my hand making me look up at him seeing tears in his eyes.

"I want to be able to be with someone who doesn't lie to me. Because if I'm just some play thing to you Rafe then I can't do this anymore." I said taking the ring off walking over to him and putting it in his hand.

"So that's it? You don't love me anymore."

"Of course I fucking love you Rafe. But the lies you've been telling me are catching up and I can't do this. I gave this a second chance, thinking it was going to work but it isn't."

"No, it is. It will, please Leah. Please don't leave." Rafe says shaking his head and I felt a tear fall from my eye looking at him.

"Goodbye Rafe." I said turning on my heel to walk away from him, I hear him calling out to me and I wanted to turn back but I knew I shouldn't. I was just going to get sucked into that world staying with him, but it didn't mean my heart didn't break any less.
