☆Riara☆ I'm going to write this story really slow as I will be writing two stories at the same time (one being for NHIE season4). Please dont kill me but am I seeing a potential for a Rafe and Kiara ship? Ok, that is where my idea for a love triangle begins. I dont know where my story may go, if she will end up with JJ or with Rafe. Rafe is not a good person, I know... but he could become someone much better... with some help... the help of someone. Kiara is caring, loyal to her friends, and a socialist. To say she hates Rafe... well, that would be an understatement, she knows all the things his done, knows how he attacked her friends, how he killed Sheriff Peterkin. But... there is one thing about Kiara, her heart can't take it, she can't stand by as Rafe prepares to destroy his own self. WARNING: I have to add there are a few mature themes: Rafe's use of drugs, mention of suicide, and there is also smut in the story too.

Perhaps if that summer went different. It would be different. We would be different.

Pure toxic love. Kiara Carrera and Rafe Cameron. Their story. An accurate depiction of what really went down in Kiara's Kook year. If you know the show, you'll love the references. If you love a slow burn, you'll love the tension. And if you love Rafe Cameron, you'll love this book. DISCLAIMER: This book is based off of the Netflix series Outer Banks. It takes place before the show starts when Kiara is in her "kook year" as mentioned in the show. Please note that this isn't an average romance. Rafe is a complicated character and it'll be hard to root for him at times. It's all a part of the story which Kiara has to deal with. I'm trying to keep it as real as possible. Rafe has a soft spot for Kie and these characters just have undeniable history. The beginning may be a little slow at times, but every element is crucial to Kie's Kook year. So hopefully you enjoy reading this fictional prequel 🩵 TW: topics of depression, abuse, drugs, bullying and profanity. This story can get very dark, very fast.

"Rafe?" she gulps and says my name between ragged breaths. Yes, say my name and ask me what you really want. "Mmm?" The words get stuck in my throat and my eyes don't leave her mouth. Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me. "Look me in the eyes when I'm talking to you." That brings me back to reality, I raise my gaze and I can notice those challenging eyes, burning like fire seeing into my soul. And I like it. "Don't tell me what to do." I spit and she tilts her head to the side without removing those eyes that challenge me, that tell me without the need for words that no matter what I say, she has me in the palm of her hand. ... Being part of two worlds is not as complicated as it seems. Suddenly, lying becomes like second nature and you begin to fracture into two versions of yourself that you don't even understand. It would just be a year of torture until I could get back to my friends, back to being a Pogue. It would just be a year where I would have to pretend to hate everything and everyone on this side of the island. It would just be a year of pretending I don't want him. ... THAT KOOK YEAR THAT ALL OF US THIRSTY BITCHES WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. Also, I'm going to make up parts of the story obviously but I'll try to keep the same timeline and the little things we were told. I didn't watch the show 40 times to not get this right lmao. [All characters and the world in which it takes place is owned by Josh Pate, Jonas Pate and Shannon Burke, with Rock Fish and Red Canoe Productions as production companies. Released on Netflix 2020.] I also posted it on ao3, in case you find it lol.

In which Kiara Carrera, a die-hard pogue and lover of the ocean, is met for a twist of events when her parents decide to send her to the "kook academy". This story is my interpretation on the infamous "kook year" Kiara had, and by no means is supposed to be accurate. Mature Content Warning All rights to OBX creators

What happens when Kiara Carrera and JJ Maybank have a very messy break up. And the only person who seems to understand what she's going through is Rafe Cameron? What's going to happen when feelings start to slowly form between them. Will they act on their feelings or never tell each other how they feel? I don't own any of the outer banks characters or their plots. They belong to Netflix. There will be season 3 spoilers in this book. If you haven't seen season 3 do not read until you have.

'What do you want Rafe?', JJ says defeatedly. 'Listen I don't have much but I'll get you anything. Anything you want if you just let her go' Rafe just smiles crookedly. 'That's a shitty deal', he spits 'I've got the gold, I've got the cross', he smiles at Kie. 'I've got your girl' ••• Obx3: What will it take for Rafe to track down his sister? Is there a chance for something more than friendship between JJ and Kiara? What happens when Kie is left alone with Rafe?
